in general five years ago never looked
for such drastic legislation as has
been recently enacted in various parts
of the United States aus a result of the
abuse of the privilege of selling and
drinking intoxicants. Even in the
south, which has long been regarded
as almost immune from any effective
crusade against liquor, we have noticed
the state of Georgia go dry and the
barroom in a hotel owned by the
governor of the state closed.
We are told that the brewers in
their Milwaukee convention will en-
deavor to take steps ito elevate the
standard of the saloon. They are go
ing to do this, while in a sense, with
out coercion, with the hope OF attain
ing salvation for their own business.
It's case of preservation. They
are not entitled, according to the
minds OF many, to any credit for the
movement for better bars and a saner
and more wholesome regard Of the law
on the part of those to whom they sell
their product, because the effort on
their part does not spring from any
inherent sense OF propriety but from
O. purely selfish desire ito stave off
what looks like smash.
ut Is an easy matter for any brewer
or jobber in vinous, spirituous and malt
LIQUORS to refuse to sell goods to a
man ,fabitually regardless Of respect
for the law. II a saloon keeper re-
fused under such circumstances seeks
his civil rights thru the courts he
would have happy time in Waging
war against the combined efforts of
the wholesalers. He would eventu-
ally, in all probability, be driven out
Of business, and thus be made most
wholesome example for his fellows. If
the brewers had undertaken some such
movement years ago they would not
now face the dangers which beset
their business from those who are after
them. tooth and nail.
The model saloon has proved a fiat
failure. The one which attained the
greatest celebrity, started some years
ago in New York by Bishop Potter.

York, was a fiasco. The international
grand lodge of Good Templars met at
Washington last week, and, according
to the Associated Press, placed itself
squarely on record on compromise
anti-saloon movements such as
model saloons, these being declared
failures when undertaken either by
ecclesiastical bodies or by govern
ments. The only remedy it was re-
solved was THE total suppression of

TWO SAMPLES OF JUSTICE.
fDes Mdnes Tr,bune)


The quality of mercy and justice Is
sometimes very much strained by our
courts and Judges. A Pfttsburg man
who stole over one million dollars
from the Farmers Deposit National
bank in that city was sentenced to
ten years In the penitentiary. A few
days ago young man in Iowa was
sentenced to the penitentiary for 20
years for stealing 40 cents which he
said he took more in jest than in SER
iousness. 1. Whatever criticism may
be made OF the Pittsburg judge for
pronouncing such slight sentence on
the million dollar thief. 1t cannot be
truthfully said that the Iowa Judge
was not cruelty and preposterously se-
we're. There is something wrong with
Judge who will sentence a boy to
20 years in prison for relieving a COM
panion Of 40 cents. There is also
something the matter with a Judge
who will allow a million dollar thief
Ia man who deliberately and wicked
~ robbed those who trusted hin-to

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES

The keOkuk cate City ODSeIVes' "A
Chicago judge fined fourteen mer-
chants one hundred dollars each for
maintaining unclean meat markets and
grocery establishments. The authorities
who did the prosecuting declare that
unsanitary places of business are re-
sponsible for many of the disease cpl
denies with which Chicago is from
time to time afflicted, and they are
doubtless right in this belief Health
authorities everywhere should make
cleanliness compulsory"
"a bankrupt banker at Rochester.
Mimi. has turned carpenter and put
on overalls," the Manila Times notes.
'He declares that he intends to earn
money enough to pay every deposttor
who has lost by his mismanagement.
The Davenport Democrat remarks that
this is heavy contract, but it ex-
presses the hope that the banker OF
former days will live long enough to
fill it . 1t often happens that bank
rupt bankers permit the depositors to
wear the overalls."
"Poor train service in Iowa Is stimu-
lating enterprise in the promotion OF
electric lines" says the Spirit Lake
Beacon. "The steam roads can impose
upon the public for season. but there
is an evening up day coming. AS an
illustration of shabby service: Since
the B., G. r. & N. was built to Sioux
Falls in the early eighties until last
fall, two thru passenger trains have
been operated daily north and south.
The public is not disposed to believe
that the former service would not be
as remunerative now as it was In the
eighties"
This reflection is from the Harris
Herald: '"rhese days we sit on the
sunny side of the car, walk on the
sunny side Of the street and sit in the
sunny window of the house. Let us
also walk ION the sunny side of life
and see the sunny side Of the dis
jointed things of life"
"Behold the fisherman" says the
Baskerville Eandicator. "He riseth up
early in the morning and disturbeth
the whole household. Mighty are his
preparations. He goeth forth full of
hope. When. the day is far spent he
returneth, hungry and wet, and the
truth is not in him."
This is remarked by the Waterloo
Times-Trbune: Besides, while we
would dislike to suggest that the sem
ator is sensitive to advertisement
which might aid other members of the
family, his 1S-hour speech may cause
some attention to be given to Miss
LaFollette, actress"

City 'The moral to be deduced from

is becoming a serious thing to get
married"

HOW MR.. BRYAN
Stands WORK
Take Care of Himself By
Right Living and
Good Nature
(By JOHN SNURE in Philadelphia
Evening Times)

JERSEY CITY, n. j., Sept. 10
Swinging through the country with
Bryan, one hears the question asked
a hundred and more times day,
How does he stand it," About four
persons out of five who hear Bryan
speak and who see him In the midst
of the whirlwind of the last six or
eight weeks of campaign are Gu
his physical and mental makeup and
manner of living that enables him
to pass through the stress of three
Presidential campaigns as candi-
date and come out almost unscathed.
He Is now past that age when
most men are at the zenith of their
endurance. In this contest he has
already done weeks of trying and via
orous campaigning. Yet he shows
almost no signs of the strain and is
in excellent general health and con-
dition. Whereas the vocal organs OF
most men that have gone through
such speaking ordeal as he has
lately would be badly shattered and
they would be vigorously fortifying
themselves with cough drops and
throat lozenges the Peerless Lead
en-" which his friends are now abb
breviating to p. L., seems never to
give the preservation of his voice
more than a passing thought.
Avoids Excuses
Leading the simple life has great
deal to do with Bryan's capacity for
the sort of campaigning he is now
engaged in. He has, of course. n
powerful physique and nature gave
him voice in a million. But he has
preserved himself well and avoided
excuses. The men who have been
travelling with the Democratic candi-
date throughout the campaign, some
of whom have been with him In his
former campaigns, say he lives the
most simply of any OF the members
of his party and that the way he
lives adds much to his marvellous ca
pabillties for hard and sustained
work.
For one thing, Bryan can sleep,
He Is what Is called a good sleeper.
, He Is so constituted that the troubles
of the day do not follow him into the
night. When he is whirling through

NOT GET WITNESS
Was In One Of Two
Places, But George
Wouldn't Go

Deputy High Sheriff George Sea is
an adept at serving papers, subpoe-
mas, etc, on people, and he is we'll
famed for his delicacy In the carrying
out of what sometimes seems to be Il
hard mission. George, however, met
his Waterloo the other day, and he
is now going the rounds telling a
good story on himself.
1t seems that in the trial of Men
donca versus Markham, which is now
going on before Judge Lindsay, a
witness by the name of S. X. Kepo-
honi was very material. A subpoena
was made out, and given to George
Sea for service. Then began search,
high, low, and everywhere, and al
though the witness could not be To-
Gated, George did not give up the
hunt.
Then one day he learned that Ke-
pohoni had died away back in 1907.
What was to do?" cried George.
II didn't know whether he had gone
to Heaven or the other place, and I
was afraid If | called for him at one
place they would not let me in, while
pr ] attempted service In the other
place, they wouldn't let me out"
Which all goes to show that George
Is good official but, just the same,
he isn't telling which place he was
really afraid to visit.

ARMY IN CUBA
IS INVESTIGATED
Beef Trust Involved and
Governor Magoon Is
Investigating

HAVANA, Cuba, Sept. 17.-lnves-
legations have been commenced here
that may result in Il scandal involv-
ing the American army of pacliica-
ton, together with representatives OF
at least two of the greatest packing
Charges have been made that large
quantities of meats-and many 9TH
er goods-haye been brought into
Cuba free of duty, for army con-
sumption, which have found their
way to certain shops where they
were sold in open competition with
goods upon which a duty had been
required.
These charges of fraud against the
army are attracting much attention
here, and the action of Governor
Magoon in instituting an investiga-
ton for the purpose of furnishing the
guilty parties II the charges are
found to be true is meeting with
much favorable comment.
For Thorough Sitting
On the other hand, Governor Ma
COON declares that II the charges are
false and cannot be proved. the per-
cons responsible for them must suf-
fer, 1t is the general opinion of both
lawyers and newspapers here that
the subject is entirely outside the
jurisdiction of the native courts, and
that II must he taken up and settled,
II at all, by the American authori-
ties.
The charges are against the Amer
lean army commissary department.
and are made by the Diarlo Espanol
The Investigation has already been
started, and today the Havana repre-
eentatives of two American firms,
Swift 4 Co. and Armour 4 Co.. have
been summoned to appear and give
Information regarding certain ship
ments of the products of their firm
to Havana. The scandal" has been
worked up by Victorino Martinez, a
reporter on the Diario Espanol, who
charges that meat coming here in
large quantities from both Swift q
Co. and Armour G. Co.. who held con-
tracts with the Government, was all

or two long speeches n day, with,
probably, numerous short car-cnd
talks, and goes to bed thoroughly
! tired out, he drops off to sleep In five
minutes and sleeps eight hours with
out a break, unless he is called out
to address an early morning crowd
somewhere.
Takes Nap Any Time
To Il fine faculty for sleeping at
might, Mr.. Bryan adds the ability to
take Il short nap almost any time he
wants to and to wake up with his
mind cleared and his body refreshed.
This serves him in good stead when
he is touring the country as he is at
lpresent.
Tens of thousands of those that
have heard Bryan have marvcled Mt
his voice and wondered at his power
of oratory, but have probably not
given thought to his digestion. Mr..
Bryan Is the fortunate pOssessor of Il
good stomach. He eats anything
that other men who work hard eat,
and has an appetite like Il black
smith or u harvest hand.
They tell story on the Bryan pri-
vate car that for breakfast in st.
Paul cafe the other day the candi-
date searched through the'bill of fare
and finally alighted on an order of
four pork chops and some fried on
ions.
And yet some folks have said in
this campaign that II Bryan Is beat
en- for President this time the blow
will be too much and will kill him.
Nothing but green old age would
seem to await the man who at As
can wrestle successfully with four
pork chops and fried onions for
breakfast. Nature did not intend
him to die of politics.
Has Muscles of Iron
While Mr.. Bryan is beginning to
get along in years and to take on
flesh, he is far from fat. He has
muscles OF iron, and big ones at that.
lie understands how to take care of
himself. After II hard and long
speech, If he has the chance, he takes
a rundown and changes his wiring
ing wet Undertaking for dry gar
ments, and he is then as good as new.
Naturally Mr.. Bryan is hospitable
and Is extremely considerate' of the
mon around him, those who are in
ANY fashion in his employ or service
or who travel with him In cam
paign. II one wants to find Bryan
enthusiasm, accompanied by pro-
found conviction that Bryan will be
the next President, he should talk to
the porter, the cook. and the other
employees who are on his private car
with him.
