Malvern Leader.l

We have been informed by one who
claims to know that there is moro
liquor shipped into Malvern that would
be needed to run an ordinary saloon
steady He claimed that it would be
better to have a saloon than to let it
be brought in in this way. This may
possibly be true but we are not vet
ready to agree to it for we don't see It
that way We fail to see how that IL
censing this crime would be any bet
ter than licensing any other evil We
would hardly care to go on record as
being willing to license horse stealing
or burglary or any of those things and
yet they are done quite frequently re-
gardless of the law Wouldn't it be
better for all law abiding citizens to
band together and see to it that the IL
legal liquor traffic was stopped and the
violators punished as they deserve. We
have plenty of law on this question if
we can only have it enforced.

AFTER EFFECTS OF PUBLICITY.
[Sioux City Journal
The general alarm over the effects
of the packing house investigation
upon our foreign trade is abating,
and the matter is beginning to de-
mand consideration on merit For
eign governments are making inves-
LEGATIONS upon their own account, and
they soon will have truer idea Of
the real conditions than they have
ever had. The stories that have beer
bruited abroad. which are not new
and which have long been used to
the detriment of American trade will
be proved to be in a large measure
untrue, and our foreign trade will
ere long be found to be better rather
than worse as result of the recent
stirring up and the consequent inn
provement in packing house conditions.
The American packing houses,
after all has been said, are the best
in the world, and foreign govern
ments will be obliged to admit the
fact and admit the American prod

prolific of new names. Men nave
cropped up as political leaders ana
managers of whom no one except per-
hans the immediate members OF thelr
families appears to have had any
knowledge. Fellows have appeared to
instruct the voters of various coun-
ties in their duty as citizens OF whom

writing from Perkins headquarters on
the letter-head of one w. F. PARROT,
assumes to outline political duty and
proprlety for Senator's Allison and
& Dolliyer and the congressman of Iowa
and threaten them with dire conse-
Quences unless they hear and heed. o,
Mr. Johnson! Mr.. Johnson!
Nobody knows who this Caesar is
or what meat has nourished him to
this contamination of greatness. How
ever, he writes on PARROTS letter
head from Perkins headquarters to
command Allison, Deliver and the
rest to countenance and assist in the
ed Hunter scheme to Kretschmerize an
Iowa state convention and makes o'oed-
fence the price of their political sal
svation. A more shameful and grsltui-
tous insult to the people of Iowa and
their representatives could not nave
been conceived or an insult more di-
gect to the persons addressed.
Who Johnson is no one knows or
cares. His personality cuts no more
figure in this campaign than old man
Heisy and his wheelbarrow. But when
he becomes the mouthpiece of the anti
Cumniins movement his voice is the
voice of Blythe, and when from cam
Hunter a threatening order issues to
Iowa senators to get back into the
state and get busy under Hunters di-
rections, it should open the eyes of
the people of Iowa to what Perkins
or anti-Cummins victory means to
the welfare of the state.
Delivers celebrated Interview in
tensifies the insult to himself. The
Blythe outfit evidently accepted the
senator's blow at the governor as a
submission. Whoever serves the
Blythe interests must enlist for the
war. The Johnson letter was a no.
tice to Dolliver to get busy with the
fiery cross and the senator is reported
to be highly indignant over the indig-
nifty offered his station and personality.
Doubtless Senator Dolliver has many
times regretted that interview If SO
his regret is accentuated by the john
son epistle. Imagine Ed Hunter order
Ing Dolliver to get busy at political
burglary!

AN ELECTORAL COMMISSION.
Hampton Recorder.l

Yesterdays Register and Leader
sounds the note of alarm TO
the effect that 1t is ''rumored
that plans are under consider
alton for seating contesting dele
cations from counties in the coming
state convention that have voted for
Governor Cummins, by a resort to a
technicality of parliamentary law. The
Register and Leader might with truth
have added that plans are on foot to
seat contesting delegations from coun-
ties that have elected delegates for Mr.
Perkins.
1t looks now as tho every county that
is yet to hold conventions, where the
contest is close, is to have contesting
delegations from one party or the other
This is not pleasant condition of af-
fairs--in fact, it may be said to be a
dangerous condition No republican
should wish to see these contests decid-
ed by brute force, without any regard
to their merits. No republican ought to
be willing to accept nomination at
the hands of a convention whose ma
jorities come from delegates who have
not been honestly and fairly elected.
Five years ago the contests in the state
convention We're decided without one
tenth of the delegates who voted for or
against their admission knowing or
honestly elected The only question
asked was, Who will they vote for if
admitted?
The Register and Leader truly says
that something is at stake now for the
republicans Of Iowa beyond nominat-
ing a governor by fair means or foul
But that paper blinded as it is by
partisan prejudice, will hardly claim
that the Juggling" to which it refers is
all on one side. or that one of the fac
tons now struggling for supremacy has
committed all the frauds Then the
question arises how to judge of the
merits of each particular case Who
can?
We have an idea Of proper and
practical solution of the question. and
that is an electoral commission" to
call it that for want Of better name.
Let the leaders of the two factions get
trAather and agree upon plan some
1Ing like the following: Each party
20 select a district judge in whose
judicial district. tneTe is no contest.
Let those two judges select third. also
from a judicial district In which no
contest is pending. Let these three
Judges constitute a tribunal to hear and
decide all these contests, the parties
agreeing in advance to abide by the
decision. There are four weeks inter-
vening between the time Of holding the
last county convention and the state
convention. 1t is vacation time with
the judges. They would doubtless
serve without compensation except for
extra expenses, and the parties to the
contest should pay these. Then when
the convention meets, we would be
spared the disgraceful spectacle of
delegates being admitted by brute
force without regard to merits. And
the danger that the Register and Lead
err sees in any reaction after the state
convention would be safely avoided
and we would all feel that we could
support the ticket nominated conscien-
tiouslS.
Why is not this plan, or something
like it, practical?

THOSE UNHAPPY RICH.

Headlines half across the pages of
the ordinary newspaper have for two
days screamed the story of the MUIR
der of one millionaire by another over
woman. The woman was the wife of
one man, whose record is that of a
mild degenerate, as millionaires and
millionaire's sons degenerate, and by
inference at least. the mistress of the
other, a wealthy and successful archi-
tect, whose taste for the Floradora
sort and neglect of an invalid wife
are not likely to bring popular sym
pathy his way. The men and the wom-
an met ard the husband shot the 9TH
er to death in the presence of thou
sand people. When the one was car
ried to prison and the other to a
morgue, each had found the goal to-
ward which his tendencies and be-
havier had directed him.
What is different in this killing of
libertine by fool at the end of a
vulgar intrigue between a chorus girl
and two rich degenerates and the rnur-
der done by Mike the Bite on some
recipient of the common favors OF his
half. world wife? If Thaw had hacked
la millionaire father he would nave
been listed simply as a common fool
and his disgraceful escapades would
have been chronicled by line IN the
police court reports. There is more

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

The Boone News says there must be
no hasty action at the state conven-
ton. IF the standpats have the ma
chinery Of the convention to start
with, due respect must be paid to the
accredited officers, but the minute they
begin to adopt arbitrary methods the
convention has the right to transact its
business in its own way and according
to it's own sweet WILL Everything
must be regular, and it is certainly
regular that the majority of delegates
should transact the business of the re-
publican convention"
The Ackley Inter-County Journal has
mo quarrel with the statement that
personally the candidates would not
resort to such methods as are prac-
ticed by Ed Hunter and his cohorts
as exemplified by the Kretschmer deal
and the importation and utilization OF
thugs in the Davenport caucuses. But
to permit Ed. Hunter and co-workers
of his ilk to conduct a campaign and
then issue a command to every man
connected with it ito be decent is like
issuing a command to hold-up thug
or a jury briber to be decent in the
application of his profession" declares

composed of Ex-Governor Larrabee
and Senator Allison, they to select the
third man. Senator Allison is a stand
patter. while Ex-Governor Larrabee is
progressive. Both these gentlemen
have the confidence of the republicans
OF the state, and any action they would
take in the matter would be accepted
as just and would result in giving the
nominee of the state convention a clear
title to the nomination."
