concerned This profession is that Of mouthpiece
incognito of special financial interests The scheme
is an adaptation of the press agent OF subsidized
newspaper but differs in that it employs men of
higher attainment and reputation, lawyers or even
educators. Several names have become familiar to
the public in the last year thru their appearance to
defend welknown special interests not ostenslby as
paid attorneys but individuals There is no direct
evidence that they paid for their work. and their
connection with the interests they defend can only
be inferred from the fact that there is no other
explanation Of the time, trouble and expense that
they apparently incurring in that behalf That
inference is sufficient evidence to satisfy the public
mind, however When F. B. Thurber, New YORK
lawyer, appeared before the national pure food con-
vention on Thursday with an attack on President
Roosevelt for his part in the disclos

quency with which Mr.. Thurber's name has been
connected with matters Of the same tenor, for ex-
ample his activity in opposition to rate regulation
and wondered whether he were not member OF
the new profession. At any rate they took little
enough stock in his opinions to resolve unanimously
that they disapproved his sentiments.

Law Sovereign Command.

II IN PASSING sentence upon three rich defendants
= who had confessed to maintaining fences on gov,
ernment land, Judge Amdon Of the United States

''The impression that is left upon my mind from
reading your letters is that all these years you have
looked upon the statute just ordinary criminal
looks upon policeman, as something to be evaded.
Our people have yet learn, altho at the present
time they are learning very rapidly, that criminal
statute law is sovereign command not to be haggled
with, but to be obeyed.n
In the at bar three rich landmen, with plenty
of ground of their own indicted for the oense
Of maintaining fences upon government land. They
had been warned by the government to remove their
distractions and failing to do brought into
court. Thereupon they set up the plea in mitigation
that they trying to comply with the law, but
unfortunately for them their correspondence
showed that they pulling every political string
they could to bring about the notification Of the
order.
Their position was that Of the average who
is certified to pay personal taxes. He haggles with
the law. He has qualms Of conscience about beat
ing it if he because he has sentiment toward
the law different from that of the tcon'' man who
sees policeman coming the street. If he can
evade the law the other evades the policeman he
is happy and satisfied. ..
Judge Amidon declined to impose severe sentence
the because, while their letters clearly showed
that they were trying to get around the law rather
than obey 1t, the replies Of the government officials
might have induced in the defendants the belief that
their illegal proceedings would be tolerated. 1t is
necessary then in the of education not only to
teach citizens that the law Is sovereign command
to obeyed but also teach officials that the law is
a stubborn command which they to enforce There

The standpat republicans fought primary legisla

wide primary would intrench Governor Cummins more
securely in power. They able to beat all such
measures but the Cummins tide too strong to be
stemmed with any sort of machinery and he secured
his nomination after three months siege OF caucuses
and county conventions that racked the nerves OF
every politician in the state. In every county where

lar plan in the last month Of contesting Cummins
counties, as to throw enough Oummins delegates
out of the temporary organization to give his enemies
control If the state committee had lent itself to this
program there would have been two state conventions
and schism in the Iowa party that might have been
years in healing The state committee, fortunately
threw out contests which had no merit, and left
Cummins in control. -...,.
The standpatters have no further object in defeat
ing primary law. It is apparent they could not be
worse off in state politics than they are since the
state convention They convinced that the
old system is vicious, and are are willing to try the
primary. The party is committed to such reform in
its platform. Without doubt kind of primary
law will be passed next winter The old law is hardly
better than nothing sat all. Each county makes it's
own rules for caucuses and conventions, and county
committees set their dates The result is that
county conventions were strung along during two
months, few Of them each week. and the rival fac.
tons sent their leaders and hired employees from one
county to another framing up caucuses and collect
ing evidence for contests The state committee had to
post itself local rules and precedens before de-
Gliding each case and found evidence Of practices that
simply appalling. So. <.-- ill., 1%1
The form Of the primary law is still undetermined.
Hardly any one in Iowa favors direct primary for
state Offices without a convention balance wheel.
They do not want to give up conventions for gather
ing the workers together and drafting Platforms and
do not want to submit to the evil Of minority
nations. Iowa has time to profit this fall by the
state primary laws, and learn from the mistakes
of the pioneers. Some scheme of electing delegates
and taking direct vote at the time will prob
ably be the result.

WHY THE SOUTH is GOING PROHIBITION
Nebraska State Journal.


Among the resolutions adopted by the Tennessee
plank endorsing the present liquor law as having
resulted in decreased Drunkenness and favoring It's
further extension. Such northern people as are sur
prised to find one of the ma jor parties making much
of laws to reduce liquor consumption will be inter-
ested to the extent to which the south has gone
in the absolute prohibition by local option mainly,
Of the sale Of alcoholic liquors. In the southern states
selling according to the latest accessible sta
tistics, is prohibited follows:
Alabama, in fifty out Of sixty counties.
Arkansas, in fifty out Of seventy-fve counties.
Florida, in thirty out Of forty-fve towns.
Georgia, the whole state except four cities.
louisiana in twenty out Of fifty counties
MARYLAND in fifteen out Of twenty -four counties.
Mississippi in seventyone Of seventyfve counties.
Missouri, in eighty-four out of one hundred and
fifteen counties
North Carolina, in sixty out Of ninety counties.
South Carolina, the whole state except ten cities
where traffic is under dispensary system
Texas in hundred and twenty out OF two
hundred and forty counties.
Virginia, in fftyfve out of one hundred and six
counties.
In Tennessee seventy out Of ninety-six counties
forbid liquor selling proportion great enough to
explain why the state convention exhibited pro-
nounced temperance views. This penchant Of the
south for prohibition may be explained as may most
other pecuarites of the section by reference to the
negro. The white Of the south is learning that
such grief he may suffer from soberness IS more
than offset by the peace Of knowing that the negro
has, no means Of getting drunk. In other words
terror of the negro drunk and running amuck
driving the south to prohibition extremely stringen
