The Rockford Register concludes
that "the type of insanity that would
enable a man to escape the gallows
after committing some horrible crime
ought to be sufficient to put him in a
lunatic's cell before he runs amuck
and does job of this kind"
Noting that Senator Smith. of Mitch
ell, has introduced bill providing that
man who deserts his wife shall be
sent to the penitentiary for year, the
Odebolt Chronicle objects. IF the SEN
ator had to live with some women we
know he wouldn't father such meas
ure. And how about the wife who de-
serts her husband?" it asks.
THE Iowa legislature insists that its
committee clerks shall actually possess
business qualifications" observes the
Alton Star Enterprise. Some kicker
ought to present the plea that this is
a graft on the part of the business col
leges of the state"
"Dolliver is by no means the poorest
iof the membership of the senate and
the state has no reason to feel ashamed
of hm-even if he is a republican,,
concludes the Carroll Sentinel (dem.)
with a $4,000 raise in their salaries,
and the possibilities of a number of
lucrative chautauqua engagements

resentatives ought to feel toierably

pareil.
What is needed now is to go to
work and build our roads" insists the
Story City Herald. Build them as we
would build a house or barn, from
roads, instead OF into more land Mon
ey put into lettering Iowa roads will
increase the value of the land and thus
bring as great profit as if put into
the cheap lands of the northwest"
'tWhy should there be hard times
because we are now enjoying a period
of prosperity" inquiries the Carroll
Herald. "a man is not necessarily go
ing to get sick because he is in robust
health. We take no stock in the sug-
gestion that panic and hard times must
be near because we have enjoyed years
of good business conditions. 1t is pos
sible that the spirit engendered by
good times may ultimately lead to
carelessness and recklessness in the
business world, but there is nothing
visible at present. Conditions are
healthful, and the prospects ahead are
as favorable for industrial life and ac-
tivity as they have ever BEEN"
The Cedar Rapids Republican Of
fers some objections to board of par
dons and suggests: "a better system
would be the indeternlinate sentence
system, now used in many of the states
and apparently, with good success. But
the main trouble we have been suffer-
ing from in Iowa has been over-par-
doning rather than too little pardon
ing 1t would be better to reduce the
penalties imposed for crimes and en-
force those penalties strictly. The
main thing is to get the idea out that
our laws are enforced. 1t would be
much better to abolish the death pen-
atty entirely than to sentence murder
ers to death and then weaken in the
face of the gallows as we have been
doing. 1t is not so much what the
laws impose as it is living up to the
of the laws"

JACK TWIN SULLIVAN
STARTS HIS TRAINING

Jack (Twin) Sullivan, who has been
rematched to fight Jim Flynn before
the Pacific Athletic club February 12,
started to train for the battle at the
old Arcadia grounds yesterday Sulli-
van is desirous of showing the Los An
geles public that he can bet Flynn in a
fair battle, laying aside all of his fancy
and practically foul blows.
The date was originally set for Feo-
ruary 8, but was moved back four days,
giving the men little longer time to
train. Flynn is still In San Diego, but
will come to Los Angeles about the first
of next month TO start his training. He
is TO be coached and trained for the
coming fight by MOLLY" Mcdonald. and
will establish quarters at the East Side

while he was on his way home last
night near the Plaza. He had just

upon him and told Moss they wanted

into a nearby alley and there robbed
him OF over 49, They made their es-
cape and Moss cried for help. His
shouts were heard by some men in a
saloon and they turned in an alarm for
the patrol. At the receiving hospital,
where he was taken, he was not
talkative and seemed inclined to de-

Possibilities for Today

Those lucky enough to pick the Win
ners this afternoon should be present
ed with a silver plated cook stove as
ii is one of the hardest cards that has
been arranged this season. The fields
in the majority of the events are large
and none of those entered stand out
prominently.
Givonni Baler0 is the one they will
have to beat for first honors in the top
event on the card. He is speedy, but
when collared usually quits. There is
speed galore in this race and the
chances are that the "spaghetti" horse
may be beaten. LOttie Gladstone's last
race was not to her true form ana she
may perform better today and beat the
top one.
Black Eyes will go we'll for a dis
tance and may possibly stick out the
route and give the winner a stiff argu-
ment. Frascuelo, with her light weight,
will be a dangerous factor.
The second race is very omen affair
as the weights have been arranged
Jersey Lady, with 90 pounds on her
back, will probably be the winner. with
an even break at the barrier. as She
is very fast and game Arimo likes the
distance and weight and should be
close up at the finish.
Toupee has had a long rest ana will
be close at the heels of the winner. an
the way. Toots Nook and Platoon viii
be right there at the finish ana one of
them may win.
Kirkneld Belle, Round Dance and
Little Minister look to have the third

SAINTS DEFEAT
THE UNIVERSITY
st. Vincent Team Wins from Univer.
sity of Southern California by the
Close Score of 18 to 16 at
Basketball

In what was probably the fastest
basketball game Of the season, st. Vim
cents college won from the University
of Southern California team yesterday
by the score of Is to 16, at the U. S. c..
gymnasium. From the first call of
playing exceedingly well, all filling
their positions in good form.
The fastest of the men were Folsom,
center for ST. Vincent'S while next to
him was Holeran of the same team.
The victory for the college is due to
the good work of these two players. u.
S. c. played a good game, but st. Vim
cents was too strong for them, and by
the support which the team gave Fol-
son and Holleran won after hard
fight.
Melrose, playing forward, was the
best man on the U. S. c. team, playing
by far the better game than any other
man in his club. Because of frequent
fouling u. S. c. had many free throws
for the goal, but could make only two.
Referee Blake did not earn the friend
ship of the university boys because, as
they say, he was partial to the Saints.
But the services of Blake were good,
everything considered.
Following is the lineup of the two
teams and summary of goals and foul
throws:
