Probably you realize in a vague way
that great mary lives are lost ev-
cry year by accidents due to careless
use of poisonous drugs. The story of
the man who got up at night and got
hold of the carbolic acid bottle in
stead of the whiskey bottle is fam
iliar. The fate of the baby who got
hold of the box of rough on rats is re-
membered in many localities. The
newspapers print these items as rou-
tine news, and except among the per-
sonal acquaintance of the victim OF
the accident little attention is paid to
them. A year ago movement was
inaugurated in Chicago to gather sta
tistics concerning such casualties thru
out the country, and the services oe
sixspress clipping bureaus were enlist
ed. The result is some figures whose
imposing proportions will be a sur
prise to most people. During the year
ended June 80, 1906, 2,04S persons were
killed or injured in this country by ac-
cidents resulting from carelessness in
handling drugs, poisons and medicines.
OF the 2,04S casualties S92 terminated
fatally.
If some one would invent a safety
appliance that would result in the
saving of 1000 lives yearly among
railway passengers he would be
hailed as great public benefactor.
His appliance would be adopted gen
orally and he would receive a large
measure of gratitude for having rem
edied a crying evil No invention is
needed to cut down the appalling

Beginning with October / the ques-

and the papers will be returned to Des
Moines for grading by a number of
specially chosen readers. All the coun-
ty superintendent will have to do with
the matter in the future Is to conduct
the examinations in the various homo
counties. The responsibility of franz
ing the questions. and of determining
who are entitled to the various grades
OF certificates. Is entirely lifted from
their shoulders. The result will be
uniformity in the grading Of teachers

In one county will be good in another.
The new arrangement will be or
marked value to the teachers qualified
to pass creditable examinations while
at the same time it will eliminate from
the ranks of the profession such holds
ers of certificates as have been able in
the past, thru political or other in
fluences. to secure unmerited favors of
the county superintendent. Not all
county superintendent have been s1s-
ceptible to such influences, but that po-
litical pressure and personal favorit-
ism too often result under the existing
order in the issuance of certificates to
incapable applicants is but logical
outcome of the clumsy arrangements so
long in vogue.
The new law will not only enhance
the cause of education in such counties
as may have suffered by reason of sup
erintendents employing the power
vested in them to issue certificates az
political capital, but 1t will afford relief
to the competent teacher from demor-

most wholesome enacted by the recent
session of the legislature.

NEWSPAPER MERGER At BOONE.

The newspaper men and the people
of Boone are to be congratulated upon
a business consolidation of Boone's two
daily newspapers. The News has pur
chased and merged the Republican.

newspaper in place of two not so good.
No one change could have been made
of more public interest to the people
of Boone.
Heretofore every time a function
has been held two reporters have Cow

The time of two men, two mechanical
plants and two newspaper organizations
has been consumed on every council
meeting. personal item, accident or

has been that publishers have been un-
able to cover the news field adequately.

DEMOCRATS AND LIQUOR LAW
dubuque Telegraph Ierald.l

DEMOCRATS AMID Lily OOft LAW.
dubuque elegraph-dIerald.1
At a conference of Iowa Methodists
held in Des Moines, the following res
olution was adopted:
1--WE are emphsltically opposed to any
measure which would place the manu-
facturers of liquors and jobbers in liq-
uors on an equal footing with such
manufacturers and jobbers Of other
states, for the reason that such meas.
ure would virtually mean the repeating
of our prohibitory law"
The conference was moved to adopt
the resolution by the demand in the
democratic state platform for law
placing the manufacture and jobbing
of liquor in iowa on footing equal
with the same industry in other states.
Under present laws a man may en-
gage in the wholesale liquor business
or in the manufacture of beer in COM
munities which give consent. He may
not, however, ship his product into
communities where the provisions OF
the mulct law do not apply, and where
the prohibitory law is in force
The jobber or manufacturer in for
eign states may, however, without peril
of conf1ScatlOn of his goods, snip ms
products in original packages to con-
sumers in prohibition communities In
Iowa.
One effect Of this discrimination
against the Iowa dealer and manufac-
turer and in favor of the foreigner, is
seen in the presence of travelling solicit
tors in Iowa representing concerns do
ing business in Illinois or other adja-
cent states.
These concerns put up in sealed bot
ties and original packages a vicious
concoction which they call whisky and
sell it in Iowa comm unities. The DEAL
er pays absolutely no tax in the state
Of Iowa and it is necessary for him to
pay only the government license o.,
500 year
The Dubuque dealer. who pays the
state $500 mulct tax, and the govern
ment licenses tax in addition. is denied
equal privileges with the nonresident
dealer.

such an arrangement, or conducive to

temperance. the Methodist conference
ought 10 point it out.
With the Methodists denouncing this
plank OF the Iowa democratic platform
and The Cunmins party attacking the
democratic nominee for governor in
liberal" communities as prohibitions
ist there is a situation amounting to
a paradox.
Tho democrat Mr.. Porter was
three times elected to represent the
republican county of Appanoose in the
state egislature-twice in the house
and once in the senate. Appanoose is
q prohibition county.
But Mr. Porter Is not a prohibitions
list. He is however, a total abstainer,
and we fancy that no one will hold that
against him, but rather commend him
for it. AS a member of the legislature
Mr. Porter voted for the manufacture
ers' bill. permitting the establishment
of breweries upon consent of certain
percentage of the voters On the other
hand. he voted for the five-mile limIr
law. prohibiting saloons within five
miles of the State University of Iowa,
and for that vote he is TO be commend
ed by all those who think it unwise to
put temptation under the very noses
of students.
Mr. Porter is standing on the party's
platform. He does not think anything
is to be gained by denying TO the Iowa
jobber and manufactures IL right eX
tended the resident jobber and
manufacturer under the interstate
commerce law. He believes that JUS
tice. sense and reason demand the
same treatment for the lowan accorded

any reasonable person will agree with
his and his party's position.
