.uliihS Zen soldiers dying from
drinking wood alcohol is another ar
gument in favor of establishment

Hawkeye says: why, certainly! And
the fact that young men are sometimes
inVe1gled into gambling dens is an
other argument why gambling should
be introduced in the public schools"
The Ottumwa Courier says that the
primary election bill, it it becomes a
law, will be u long step toward u
monarchy"

rate is the thing. Shall the rate an

shall the final word be with public

AS the Clear Lake Mirror sees the
situation Governor Cummins is the
logical candidate of the progressives:
Governor Cummins is q poor man. He
would have enjoyed lucrative practice
as a lawyer, during all the years ne
has held the office of governor of this
state and we are quite ready to be-
lieve that so far as he is personally
concerned he would like to return to
the practice of his profession contln-
ues the Mirror. But the right man
cannot be found to make the race who
stands for the principles that Cum
minis advocates--an anti-pass law, n
primary bill, the right of the people
to control their own affairs without
the dictation of railroads and other
corporations. and the many reforms
with which his name has been connect

"The common sense of the country
will not tolerate repetltlon OF the
anthracite strike experience" says the
Dubuque Times.

To the Charles City ntelllgencer 1T

more and more evident every DAY that
in Iowa must stahd Tor

seek nomination and election must get
ofe the fence and stand on one side
