MONEY AND OPPORTUNITY.
IAlgona Republican

There is plenty of opportunity to so
invest money. Lately there is espec-
ial call to do it, The way is open,
and the assurance of fair returns is
good. There is no business man who
will now dispute that we have re-
sources to be developed and an un-
limited demand assured for what may
be made an almost unlimited product.
A few thousand would start things
The trouble is that business men
nowadays are not content with fair
and reasonable returns for their mon
ey. They want to double their money
in a few months in land or other spec
ulations, and so money which might
be put into productive industries at
home is sent out of the town and out
of the state. Then men who have so
invested their money are liable to
complain that the town is dead. They
are inclined to be indignant because
their neighbors have not made some
thing of the town.
Some of these people find that the
town has become too small for them
and they move to big cities that other
men have built up by establishing To-
cal manufacturers They have made
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1906-08-06

their money, some of them, out of the
enterprise and toll and sacrifice OF
other men, and they move that they
may do the same thing elsewhere.
Their moving to a bigger town is only
progressive selfishness. They did
not have to move away. There is not
a man who made his money in Algona
and carried it away who might not
have increased his riches In local in
dustres waiting for money and brains
and push to create them.
1t is the tremendous haste to be
rich and to get riches out of the other
fellow, that is killing our small towns.
The thought of any community of In
terest is foreign to the mind of the
typical money-maker. He is too sat-
isfied with his nice fat usuries levied
upon productive industry. He wants
his crop to grow in a day and be har-
vested in a nightly somebody else
What is righteously to be complain
ed of Is the absence of ambition to
achieve The machinery of modern
life is mainly spun out of the brains
of our best men. 1t is finished by
IIleIl WHO loNe anu SloIy III tHCii dpiii-
ty to work out the thought of the
mighty men of intellect. We need
higher ambitions. Take the ambition
to give work in Algona to a hundred
families, at pay that would mean
home refinements and education to
five hundred children. Just one such
ambition in Algona would be good
for the little old tewn. There are a
hundred men in Algona with the mon
ey and the brains to achieve such re-
suits. What they lack is the ambi-
ton.

THE sTAR-cLIPPER's WAY.
ITraer Star-Clipper.l


The Vinton Eagle says. Time was
when Iowa Republican papers took de-
light in upholding the party's servants,
but for the past few years II they "4d
not belong to our crowd they We're
slandered and v!llified worse than the
opposition The Star-Clipper never
trained in that crowd. 1t is republican
paper. 1t has stood squarely on the Ea-
tional and Iowa state republican plat
forms. 1t has accepted those platforms
and has always taken delight in
upholding" all the party's servants who
were true to the officially declared
principles Of the party. 1t has always
been equally ready to condemn the
course of any man or body of men who
in any way INSTRUCTED or tried to OBJ
struct the full and immediate applica-
ton Of those principles in either the
framing of laws or in their application
In the present case we We're glad that
the senate had so largely broken away
from the control of the men who, pos
ing as "the party's servants We're
constantly seeking to obstruct the APP
plication of the partys principles IN
the national legislation and we has
tened to say so. We have not yet eaten
any crow The senate happily, at last,
gave us turkey and we took it with
thanks The Eagle says it has stood
pat on the party's record" The Star
Clipper has stood pat on the party's
platforms. 1t expects to- so continue
1t has never villified or slandered, but
has not hesitated and will not hesitate
hereafter to criticise any party record
that does not harmonic with the plat
form utterances. 1t believes that the
faithful application of those principles
would keep the party in power con-
tinuously but if the record be not made
to square with the platform on which
we profess to stand there is rocky
road ahead.

TENTING THE TOWN.
[Des Moines News.l

Mayor Patton, of Evanston, ILL.,, and
his family have been sleeping in tents
in the mayors back yard. In telling
about it he says:
"You would be surprised at the BEN
eficial effects. We all feel better.
There Is so much more ozone to be had
than sleeping in a room. And then
in a room with windows open there is
danger from draughts. You get up
feeling out of sorts. But you feel alb
solutely refreshed after a nights sleep
in the open"
The mayor has made converts Of his
neighbors and the yards of Evanston
are dotted with tents. In many other
towns the "tent cure" is becoming pop
ular.
1t is inexpensive.
All you need is tent and a few
boards for a floor.
And it is a real outing-a return to
nature"
1t is in line with the new treatment
fresh air, sunshine, simple fool, lib
eral use of pure drinking water ETC.
that is recommended by many DOWN
to-date physicians.
Man was not made to sleep in a
stuffy room. His lungs were made to
be used 1t was intended they should
be filled like bellows with great
draughts of oxygen. But man shuts
himself up, puts a few holes in MS
house for the air to leak thru, breathes
with only half his lungs-and dies of
consumption and numerous other ills.
Try the tent cure
AS Mayor Patton says, you will be
surprised at the beneficial effects. Two
of three months of sleeping in the open
will lay up for you a reserve of vital
ity that will carry you thru all the
strain and dissipation of the year.
More than half the benefit of going
away on vacation comes rom the
unusual amount of fresh air that is
taken in.
But the beauty about the tent cure
is that you can go right along doing
your daily work. Sleep, Natures

sleeve of care" And sleep in the OPP

take power often abused out OF the
hands of middlemen in politics and
eliminate much superfluous and dan
gerous party friction.
Governor Cummins, now nominated
for third term has been known--out :
side Iowa, at least-chieny as a dis
senter from "standpat' doctrine and
an advocate of tariff revision. Since
his first election in 1901 he has fire.
quently criticised the Dingley sched-
ules as obsolete in many details, and
mas urged the necessity of recasting
and industry. Between nominating
conventions and away from home he
has sometimes seemed to antagonze
protection sentiment. Yet to judge
from the Iowa platforms of 1901 1903
and 19O6-all of them framed by his
supporters for him to stand on--his
position is in no way extreme or UNI
reasonable. This years tariff declara :
ton, which merely repeats that of 1908,
certainly reaffirms the best republican
teaching.
No exception can be taken to such a
statement of republican policy. The
Dingley tariff as tariff has had a ire
mendous vindication. 1t has more to
show in positive, practical results than
any other tariff in our history. But the
extraordinary impetus given in the last
ten years, both to home industry and to
foreign trade has necessarily altered
our own status as a producer and our
commercial relations with the rest OF
the world. The United States of 1905
is not the United States of 1897. A
tariff made to fit conditions nine years
ago cannot be expected to fit present
conditions exactly: still less nearly will
it presumably fit them in 1908 or 1910.
AS Speaker Cannon wisely said last
winter. the tariff will have to be re-
vised before long. whatever the stand
patters" say and however much they
may regret the necessity of revision.
Governor Cummins and the Iowa re-
publicans are in line with intelligent
republican sentiment in foreseeing that
change and in getting ready to un-
dertake 1t. But they realize at the
same time, as republicans in general
realize, that there We're other urgent
political problems to be dealt with, and
that it was wise to delay an overhaul
ing of the Dingley tariff until we had
corrected political and economical
abuses which come much more directly
home to the people.

MOSTLY VOICE AND FEATHERS.

One thing that will lend esprit to
what otherwise would be hopeless
and perfunctory gathering at Waterloo
is the fact that the republicans are as
yet entirely at sea regarding presi-
Denial candidate for 1908, and the con-
fidenc newly awakened among demo-
erals in the future of William j. Bry-
an. It is now confidently stated by
democrats, and as confidently believed
by many of his followers, that Roose-
veil. and Roosevelt only, can beat Mr..
BRYAN to the presidential succession.
Like the man who so much enjoyed
the prospect Of rubbing the bulls nose
on the ground, our democratic friends
arr. having their laugh first and wisely
So
There is plenty of time for dissension
to dissolve the apparent solidarity of
Nj. Bryans boom, and as dissension
is normal attribute of the democratic
also plenty of time for republicans to
lay aside local quarrels and form
! solid phalanx, and as this is a normal
condition of the party, it is also to be
expected with confidence. The demo-
cratic party today is simply one man
W. J. Bryan. Whatever Of hope and
m utual effort exists in that disorgan-
/, ICED and infinitely discredited party
groups itself about Bryan. His per-
sonal popularity is the popularity of
the democratic party. In the next
campaign it must butt its head against
y the stone wall of the protective prin-
ciple, or present republican issue dis
suised in the rags of democracy. Mr.
Isryans silver issue is in the closet.
Outside of silver the democrats have
hot presented a real issue since sla-
Sery
When the time comes, the constitu-
'ional weakness of the democrats will
be apparent The present uncertainty
IF republican choice for presidential
nominee is walking beside the certain
ty that drives the democracy toward
third nomination of candidate twice
defeated, whose record on the money
question is as full of holes as a colan-
d der, and who asserts his belief that the
s false issue upon which his political
prominence was builded is not dead,
but dormant, and presumably to be
revived in event of the qualification of
his aspirations.
The present democratic revival is
like a screech OVAL voice and feath-
ers.

"THE RESULT IN IOWA.

No newspaper may more justly lay
claim to precedence in republican
councils and among republican news
papers than the New York Tribune. Il
is an administration paper close to the
president, and in harmony with the
Roosevelt regime. Consequently it's ex-
preston on "The Result in Iowa" will
be read with much interest, and it is to
be hoped with benefit, by those who
have listed the progressive movement
as democratic annex" The Tribune
says:
Reason and good temper carried the
day in the Iowa republican convention
and senseless war of factions was
avoided. Trouble was threatened be-
cause the state committee, controlled
by Governor Cummins' opponents was
credited with purpose to revise the
roll of delegates, and by sharp prac-
tice with certain election contests to
convert an opposition minority into an
opposition majority. On the face Of
the returns, Governor Cummins had
clearly defeated his chief rival, Mr.
George d. Perkins. and an attempt to
reverse the verdict by returning board
methods would undoubtedly have led to
a schism in the convention and the
nomination of two sets of candidates.
Senator Dolliver and nine of the eleven
republican representatives in congress
from Iowa joined in a public protest
against any arbitrary tinkering with
the roll, and the state committee heed
ed this warning. The Cummins dele
gates We're left in control. and they
gave their leader 933 votes against sos
for Mr.. Perkins. The convention seems
to have been impressed with the perils
to party harmony and welfare which
the situation presented, as well as with
the faultiness of the machinery thru
which the will of the majority had to
be declared, for it pledged the legisla-
ture to pass a state wide" primary
election law. under which candidates
for state offices and for the United
states senate should be voted for di-
