FIXING THE WALKS

Some FELLOW is going to be chop
ping mad'' this week if the street
commissioner does what he saws he
will do. mends the sidewalks at the
expense TO the owners. AS an alb
stract proposition everyone believes
in good side walks. Everyone believes
in themas concrete proposition when
applied at the other fellow. BUT.
Wow. but it makes man mad to
have street commissioner coming
around to fix his walks for him.
Confdentially. we would tell the peo-
pie that the blessing OF free delivery
is to extend no farther than the side
walks. If you want the mail deliv-
cred to your door. go after the council
and get crossings put in where needed
and put in at least u temporary walk
your self. Uncle Sam is not particu-
lar as to what kind of a walk YOU
have. but he does not ask his carriers
to wade through the mud for your ben
eft.

ABOUT MAIL BOXES

1t is queer how much misinforma-
ton an be distributed among the peo-
pie in short space of time. On Sat-
urday lady asked US if house holders
were obliged to buy numbers for their
houses We told her they were not.
They are obliged to number their
houses, but they can suit themselves
as to the way it is done. Some lamp
black, linseed oil and paint brush
will do the numbering just as effect
lively as "boughten" number will do
it. After we had answered this ques-
ton, the lady said she had heard that
you had to pay $500 for mail box
and that it had to be hung on post
at the street corner.
Again we informed the lady that she
could use any old kind of mail box
that she chose. although she could get
a good one for from fifty cents to
dollar at several of the stores.
Further. we told her that the mail
boxes were to be hung on the houses,
not on a post at the street corner.
Now that few of these antiquities
are cleared up. we hope that the work

reason it is our opinion that the stu
alton should be we'll canvassed before
the next nomination is made. The
democratic party must be united and
enthusiastic If it would win the next
national battle of ballots. 1t is our
opinion that such man as Gov. Folk
of Missouri as the candidate would
produce such conditions. He is a
national character, having won en-
viable notoriety as an able foe of
municipal and state corruption. He
is far enough south to satisfy the
southern feeling that it is time that a
southern man was nominated, and he
is far enough north to satisfy all
northern sentiment. And he is also
far enough east and west to satisfy
all sectional sentiment in that respect,
Indeed there are many who think it is
about that time the country was given
president whose home is west OF the
Mississippi river.

Night Captain Pattee of the Des

an interview one day last week in
which he made the statement that
hardly night passes but what some
little girl from Is to 10 years old is
brought to headquarters by a patrol
man for making the chance acquain-
lance of men and boys and flirting
with strangers on the down town
streets. He says these girls are not
bad. but are being led astray by the

BRYAN NOT THE MAN

Courier Dem. Algona. But with
all of Mr.. Bryan's ability and popu-

to the advisiability of nominating
him again for the presidency. 1t is
historical fact that the most bril-
liant men have failed in their aspira-
tions for that Office. Such examples
as Webster and Clay and Blaine
might be cited to illustrate that fact.
Mr.. Bryan has made two runs for
the presidency. and in those runs.
especially the first one. he stirred up
animosities and prejudices that have
not yet entirely cooled. And on ac-
count of those old sores he could not,
if he runs again. get the full enthus-
iastic support of his party. For that

QUANTITY VS. QUALITY

Just now every one is taking a
whack at currency legislation. The
editor of the Review is not an expert
in financial affairs. He is recognized
as nom expert and in this regard may
be said to have definite standing.
With becoming modesty therefore. he
would suggest. that the most import
ant thing about currency is QUALITY.
AT present. there is inclination to in
crease the quantity at the expense of
quality. Volume seems to b, the OBJ
ject all the statesmen have in view.
A large volume Of GOOD currency is
desirable. We know this from hear
say. But a large volume of POOR
currency is not worth the traditional
two whoops. Currency must be like
Caesars wife. above suspicion. 1t
must not only average we'll. it must be
immaculate. Roosevelt is right, we
do not want to take our money on
trust even from the Almighty. 1t
must be good. absolutely good. 1t
must require no stretch of faith or
confidence to know that it is good.
That is why we would caution the
statesmen not to forget quality while
they are increasing the quantity of our
currency. That is why we urge them
to safe guard it IN every way and
then to go through and safeguard it
some more and then to throw in few
safeguards for good measure. We
are so afraid of Wildcat than
even the domestic breed don't go.

would expect Judge to begin pros

that ne will prosecute any case that is
brought before him in proper way.
but he was not elected to act as po-
liceman; the sheriff would be perfectly
willing to serve any warrant placed
in his hands but. so long as no infor-
nation is filed, what can poor sher-
if do? All of these officers point back
to the individual and demand that he
take the initiative. The private citi-

either with loss of business or, in
more urgent cases. with physical vio-
lence. and the private CITIZEN does not
act. The murder in Sioux City. the
dynamiting in Muscatine. the mob in
Davenport are sufficient warning for
the average man.
There is something peculiar in this
shifting of responsibility. If MUIR
der is committed the sheriff swears in
"a posse and goes out to hunt for the
criminals without delay or formality.
The County Attorney makes search
for the evidence. The Judge holds a
special term of court. The AttyGeneral
offers his best advice. The Governor
announces a reward for the capture of
the guilty man. And yet we all know
that the law is the law. and that it is
as much the duty of the officers to en-
force the law against prize-fghting as
it is to enforce the law against nu :
der. We believe it is time definitely
to locate the responsibility for law
enforcement. At present it seems to
be lodged chiefly with the law-break-
er and just as much of the law is en-
forced as he is willing should be en-
forced and no more. Denison is very
fortunate in that its saloon men are
abiding by the mulct law. but accord
ing to the accepted theory of govern
ment. if they were not law abiding
the community could not help itself.

WHO is RESPONSIBLE?

We regret to say that up to this
time the Davenport case has not shed

bility.
The Attorney General would be glad
to enforce the law. if the case were
properly brought before him, but. of
course, he can not take the initiative.
The Judge would be over-joyed with
an opportunity to uphold the dignity
of the law. but. of course, no one
