IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

The Ackley World will volunteer
the Professionalism neither proph-
ct nor the son of a prophet--that pub
fishers will be granted the common
right of selling their space for any
thik that they deem of equivalent
value; either railroad transportation,
cord wood. hay, merchandise at the
grocery, clothing or anything else.
Any other dealer in any other line
has the same privilege and a pub
Usher is not different from other NOR
tails"
I'VE are not a subscriber to the
theory that God Furnishes evil doors
while on earth other than the punish
ment they receive thru violated nat
ural laws and conscience" remarks
the Northwood Anchor. But some
how illegal fishers seem to drink
special cup of woe. We used to know
man who spent his Sundays dyna-
hitting fish, One day bomb ex-
ploded in his face and blew out both
his eyes. He must have had plenty
OF time to think, as he sat for years in
darkness. of the truth of that old
phrase the way of the transgressor
is hard The past week, another
Iowa man lost his life by becoming
tangled in his net The moral seems
to be to let the fish alone unless you
can take them in the regular legitimate
way"
The MT. Vernon Record would like
to see Warren Garst next governor OF
Iowa. Mr.. Garst IS a good man. His
only trouble, as a politician, is that
he is not good tight rope walker,
but he is square out for what he be-
lieves proper. To our mind this Is a
good qualifications. and we admire 1t in
a man whether he is with or against
u.s.
1t is the belief of the Des Moines
Tribune that what the delegates of
the peace conference don't know
about preparing for war isn't worth
mentioning"
iowa is producing freight these
section" remarks the Sioux City
Tribune Iowa looks good to the rail-
roads in spite of that question of as
sessment.'
{ Before the people can realize the
fruits of the square deal some means
must be devised to squeeze the water
out of stocks and to keep it out. 1t
is difficult problem. but a remedy
will be found" declares the Webster
City Freeman Tribune.
after a little it will grow plain
to the public that the law-defying
trusts do rot fear grandstand plays
and loud talk says the Chicago Live
Stock World What they do fear is
the actual enforcement of the law.
When rich thieves begin going to the
nenitentiary the same as poor thieves
the atmosphere will be clarified"
The Waterloo Reporter predicts
that Rates for service that enable
corporations to pay fair returns on
capital invested will be allowed, but
the public will be protected against
such exactions as enable express
companies in these days to earn with
in a few years twice their capitaliza-
ton in addition to fair annual divt-
dends. The public already has one
eve open. The other is opening"
eff stock rafsers would breed a horse
that can walk fast it would be doing
a greater service to the industrial in
terests than all the trotters and pac-
ers on the turf" asserts the Maxwell
Tribune.
"A man out. in Kansas has discov-
cred that dried buttermilll makes an
excellent food for COWS" observes the
Sioux City Journal. THE proposition
is the most attractive advanced since
the plan for burning ashes went by
the board"
