THE PRESIDENT AND BAILEY.

Senator Bailey continues to talk
much saying little that has behind it
any evidence that he is telling the
truth. Senator Bailey's long suits are
accusation and denial. AS between
Bailey and Chandler and the president
on a question of veracity the country
will take Roosevelt's word without
hesitation. Tillman and Bailey failed
in their effort to switch rate regulation
over into a democratic issue. Aldrich
and his gang failed to discredit the
movement when he threw it into the
hands of the democrats The Aldrich-
Elkins crowd have felt the sting and
consequence of their failure. Had
Tillman and Bailey Recognized and
borne manfully their failure to steal an
issue and put the democratic party in
the ascendant as championing rate
regulation and joined willingly the eff
fort to secure an effective law they
would stand in a much better light be-
fore the country at large.
President Roosevelt has been con-
sistent. What he has stood for all
along is the passage of an unemascu-
lated rate bill. He has not been par
ticular as to the party color of the
supporters of the bill He accepted
Tillman's sponsorship of the bill when
Aldrich attempted to steal the credit
of presenting it from Dolliver. He
has conferred freely, thru Intermediary
with the democratic senator. He has
been willing to accept such amendation
of the bill as did not seek it's nullifi-
cation, whether offered from one side
or the other of the senate. This atti-
tude, however. did not bind him to sub
nit to q democratic dictatorship or to
become an assistant to Bailey and Till
man in their attempt to widen the
breach in the presidents own party
and make democratic capital out of
Aldrich's tricky transference of rate
regulation leadership to democrat.

To Judge from accounts in Council

chorus Of agonizing whines sent up

Hawkeye, and then proceeds to an
swer by saying: For years that sec
t;on of the state has been inoculated
with free trade notions disseminated
by Chicago, st. Paul and Minneapolis
daily papers" The burden of the ar
gument is that the people OF Minnesota
are close neighbors to Canada and be-
cause of their social and commercial
relations desire tariff concessions that
will facilitate trade back and forth

republicanism and proctect1onlsm
Offered thru the red sands of Mime
sota,' while the counties of southern
Iowa are grounded and rooted in the
faith of protection as advocated by
Blaine. Mckinley. Harrison and Roose-
velt''
This is the character of argument
that pleases the long whiskered gentry
who usually make up the delegations
from southern Iowa, but what do the
election returns say? The First and
Eighth congressional districts are the
20. reservation districts which always
go solidly against Cummins, while
the Fourth. Tenth and Eleventh dis
tricts are the northern Iowa districts
which give Cummins his greatest vote
In the First district the republican vote
cast is only 1929 and the democrats
are able to poll 40 per cent of the to-
tai. while in each of the Tenth and
Eleventh districts the republican vote
is nearly twice as large, being 34,971,
and S2,562 and the democrats count
only IS per cent of the total. Even
in the Eighth the republican vote Of
26,6O3 just about approximates the re-
publican vote of 26,399 in the Fourth
which is an extreme northern Iowa
and Cummins district, but in the
Eighth the democrats poll 81 per cent
of the total while they count only 81
per cent in the Fourth.
Judging from election returns and
percentages of democratic vote the
.inoculation" of free trade seems Of a
much more viril character in southern
Iowa than in northern Iowa. However,
the Hawkeye is getting dangerously
sentiment in northern Iowa is attribute
ed to a wide and general reading of daily
5newspa pers. And conversely the mar
rowness and bigotry of the two tiers OF
southern Iowa counties, dominated by
MIR. Blythe's railroad influence, is due
entirely, as the Hawkeye admits, to the
fact that they do not read anything
except the newspapers which Mr..
Blythe either owns or controls. One
strong, free handed daily paper in
southern Iowa could disrupt the Blythe
regime even SO close to Missouri And
that suggests a comparison of repub-
licanism as invited by the rhetoric of
the Hawkeye. Which is to be pre-
ferred, the republicanism of northern
Iowa with it's large majorities, its
outside newspapers and protectionism
Offered thru the sands" of enlightened
Minnesota, or the republicanism of the
20" reservation with its bare margin
in the election canvass, its information
restricted TO railroad machine press
and it's bourbonism blown thru the
whiskers of Missourian antecedents?

it is not necessary to own 100 acres of
land to live we'll. The man with forty
acres or ten acres can live as well as
the man with 100 acres if he will just
