Schools Produce Physical pwarfs.

In a paper on Sanitary Inspection
of Schools" DR.. l.. A. Thomas OF
Red Oak, at the opening of the State
Medical society convention scored
school conditions and school boards.
Among other things he said:
"The schools are blindly turning
out mental giants and physical
dwarfs. The average school board as
at present constituted is a conglom.
crate mixture of inefflciency and is
serious hindrance to sanitary and
hygienic progress. The average
board is composed of individuals
lacking necessary ability and inc,in'
alton to personally study the econ,
omic and hygienic needs OF the
schools"

Grain Dealers Ask Legislation.

Grain Dealers Ask Legislation.
The imperative demand for some
law with which to control railroad
distribution of cars was the topic
which received most liberal discus
sion before the Iowa Grain Dealers
association convention at the Y. M.
c. A. auditorium.
Il know of one road which operates
in Iowa." said George A. Wells, Sec
rotary, in making his annual report,
(which took hundreds of cars from
its equipment In order to transport
grain from Omaha and Kansas City
to the Atlantic coast ut very low
rate In competition with the gulf
lines, and at the same time supplied
Iowa with but one-third of the cars
necessary to move the grain in It's
territory"
This he urged was an unjust and
injurious discrimination against Iowa
grain dealers
Following his annual report Mr..
Wells presented a number Of resolu'
tons for the consideration Of the
convention. These urged railroads to
use all their power to look after the
interests OF shippers at terminals to
prevent leakage and stealage. A
resolution was also drafted petition.

Pardon Asked For Crook.


Concerted effort is being brought
to bear upon Governor Cummins to
grant a parole or pardon to w. c.
Rogers, the criminal convicted of the
murder of Bert Forney at Council
Bluffs about three years ago. Rogers
was a member of the famous Burrier
gang, which operated all along the
Northwestern road from Council
Bluffs to Clinton. The murder was a
particularly atrocious one, and caused
much excitement at the time. Efforts
were employed at the time of the
trial to bring influence to bear to
have the case dropped. However, the
evidence was strong and the SEN
tence passed vas heavy. Az i'm
prisonment of twenty-five years was
imposed.
Rogers arrest and conviction was
the close of one of the strongest
reigns of criminal gangs in Iowa.
For years under the direction OF
George Burrier, such men as Rogers,
Jerry Dolan, Mike Conroy, Murphy
and others preyed upon Iowa towns.

Democrats to Meet in Waterloo.

The democratic state convention
will be held at Waterloo, Aug. 7, and
d. w. Hamilton of Sigourney will be
the temporary chairman.
John p. Reese, the commissioner for
the mine operators Of the state and
formerly the head of the miners or
ganiZation in Iowa, was discussed at
the conference which fixed the time
and place for the state convention,
as good material as a candidate for
governor. Jerry B. Sullivan, who ran
against Governor Cummins in 1908,
has been urged to be candidate
again. 1t is said that he will not
consider it. G. e. Bronson Of Man

toned in connection with the nomin'
alton. Judge Wade, it is said, will
not consider it for the reason that
he will run for congress in the Sec
ond district.
Cedar Rapids was a candidate for
the location of the convention. Its
claims were presented by Secretary
Shaver of the Commercial Club OF
that city, but it received little sup
port, the committee being undecided
whether to go to Waterloo or to Des
Moines. Waterloo has abundant hotel
and railroad service as well as Des
Moines.
Walt H. Butler urged the commit.
tee to nominate a ticket before the
republican state convention is held.
but his proposition received no sup
port. He thought it would be gooa
politics to set the pace for the repub
licans.
The committee met at the Slavery
hotel. G. w. Miller of Waverly, the
secretary of the state committee, was
made chairman in the absence OF
Chairman Steve Morrisey of Harlan.
G. l.. Caswell of Denison, who held
the proxy of j. b. Romans of that
district, was made secretary Of the
meeting.
The date was first fixed at Aug. Z.
The republican state convention is to
be held Aug. ].
The following temporary officers
were then chosen: Chairman, ID. w.

MiIllners and the Bird Law.

Miliiners and the Bird Law.
Des Moines.-A day of discussion
relating principally to legislation re.
garding the rulings of express com,
panies handling Wholesale millinery
goods and to the game laws affect
ing the use of bird plumage and
aigrettes marked the opening of the
eleventh semi-annual session of the
Millinery Jobbers' association at the
Chamberlain hotel.
Action will also probably be taken
to remove the pledge of the associa-
ton taken at the last meeting to dis
courage the sale OF aigrettes and
other imported feathers for millinery
trimming. Inc matter was thorough
ly discussed at the opening season.
and while the association concurs In
the efforts of the Audubon societies
to prevent the destruction of song
birds In this country, ii does not
wish to handicap It's members by de-
claring against the sale of imported
bird plumage while such imported
goods are allowed to come into the
country. A recent New York iecis-
ion holds that a state has not the
right to prohibit the sale of imported
algrettes as long as they are allowed
Nv the United States to carry on sucn
sale, and until the federal action Is
taken against this class OF goods the
sale will not be discontinued.
The prohibition OF the association
against the sale of any domestic plu-
mage, which Is to go into effect July
1, will not be changed. and this con-
forms in most respects with the Iowa
law. 1t is believed, however, by the
Iowa members of the association
that the Iowa law is too stringent In
some respects, and that It Is faulty
in prohibiting the sale of imported
goods, and discussion of the Iowa
law may come up. although 1t Is
hardly possible that any action In
this respect will be taken.

The production of the clansman, in
New York or elsewhere, cannot in
anyway injure the Negro who is de-
termined not to be injured by methods
so out of harmony with the truth,

Honest men of all creeds and all

ing to-day-this is the vital question.
Those ~ko ass tAniikar with history
know that the civilization Of the South

Mr.. Dixon holds up to scorn and ridi-

writes so volubly and dogmatically.
There are worse people than Negros
in the South, and Mr.. Dixon is one Of
them. We are content to let the pub
lie do its own thinking about the
clansman. Personally, we are noe
afraid of the aftermath, for we still
have lost neither their self-respect,
