A METEOROLOGICAL ERROR.

At the state convention of the Pro
hibition party in Oskaloosa, John w.
Leady, the temporary chairman, took
occasion to remark:
The brewers and the G. o. P.
held a great political convention in
Chicago and they drank beer at that
convention. The bosses, while they
tasted the beer, commanded that 80
feet more of bar be brought in and S
more bartenders and set up in the
breakfast room that the allies and the
Taft men and eastern delegates might
drink beer. The Taft men and the
eastern delegation and the allies
drank beer to Teddy They drank
beer and praised the gods of property,
of steel and of Standard Oil"
Aside from the other Inaccuracies
that may be noted, Mr.. Leady fell
into meteorological error that should
not go uncorrected. Until nominal.
ing day at the convention the wealth
er was altogether too cool for beer,
and on nominating day everybody was
too busy to take drink.

MRS. TAFT A THINKING WOMAN.

Mrs. William Howard Taft, wife of
the Republican nominee for president,
is q sensible woman. She Is think
ing woman, too, has her views on a
number of public questions and is
capable of expressing them we'll. The
divorce onestion is one on which the
woman who may become mistress Of
the White House holds deep conyic-
tons. In an itnerview given out
after the news was flashed over the
wires of her husbands nomination,
she was sought out by the reporters
and was easily drawn into lengthy
alcussion OF divorce. She said:
If 1t were in my power, divorce
would be stopped entirely. OF course,
there are cases where separation
might be legally granted, but there
should be no remarriage allowed. The
laxity of our divorce laws is a menace
to the moral fiber of our nation. 1t is
