cAnnon's PLACE IN CONGRESS.

It is noticeable that only a few
newspapers sound a note of rejoicing
over Hon. Joseph Cannon's return to
congress. Those who are inclined to
celebrate it as a republican victory
are not many. 1t was personal VIC
tory for Cannon and there is no par
ticular reason for republicans as a
mass to grow enthusiastic and fling
cap in air over it. As between Can
non, Gompers and the democrats the
average man looked on at the pulling
and hauling with interest largely inn
personal. Indeed there was a feeling
most widespread and humanity natural
that if the bully of the house We're
defeated he would get what he had
coming But the why, skillful and
game old fighter stayed the limit and
won, after he had been made "groggy'
in the first round. Hence while there
is no particular reason for rejoicing,
admiration is compelled. Uncle Joe
is the Robert F'itzsimmons of politics.
However, let us keep the issues clear.
Cannon was an issue only in his own
district, so far as his election or de-
feat was concerned. That he would
have been beaten Overwhelmingly is
certain had he been on the national
ticket. He became so much of an
issue outside of his district that Iowa
candidates for congress, as elsewhere,
made haste to align themselves against
him for the speakershp. Mr.. Cannon
represented more than any other re-
publican the rcai,tionary. He was 4

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

the diseased portion OF the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness. and that IS
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infiarned condition OF the
mucous lining OF the Eustachain Tube When
this tube is infamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing. and when it is
entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can DO taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal condi-

SUGGESTIONS.
(Des Moines Capital)

The republicans of Iowa will have
control of the new legislature, which
meets in January. That legislature
should give attention to some OF the
reforms which eXASpeakcr Clarke
pointed ont in his speech before the
Grant club some months ago The
speaker is now the lieutenant gov
crnor- elect. He viii be in position to
help accomplish the purposes which
he indicated ought to be accomplished.
He referred to the little extravagances
around the legislative bodies. He as
serted that there were far too many

LIKE MASTER LIKE SERVANT.

Wage workers in possession of a job
which promises permanency should not
sit idly by and permit the employers
to be the only class to anticipate the
future by laying plans for business ex-
pansion. Something of the tone of op-
timism which has come with the cleo
ton Of Taft should ba sounded by the
man on the pay check.
1t Is time he planned to build
house of his own. If we are
10 have prosperity there will be
four years until another presidential
election can disturb it. The cost
OF building will always grow greater
because we are overtaking our supply
of cheap building material at terrific
pace, and the labor cost of building
does not trend downward. There win
not be a.tin1e in much less than a de-
cade when it will be any cheaper to
build and when a man considers the
loss of even single year from the
number allotted to the average person
in which to live, he should make haste
to be at the job Of paying for house
of his own.
There will be building loan
society in operation in Marshall
town within few weeks, and this
should offer the opportunity every man
with job and rented house should
seek. Build now is the slogan of the
business man who is branching out,

New York, referred ito time when he

influence of Christian missions. and an
antidote to the incorrect or magnified
statements which are set afioat by
haters Of Christianity, in some cases,
and by careless observers, by sectar-
ians, by mere politicians, or by trav-
elers who stay in a country from
twenty four hours ito a week" We
quote further from the secretary's
speech:
"The truth is we have got to wake
up in this country. We are not all
there is in the world. There are lots
besides us, and there are lots of peo-
pic besides us that are entitled to our

to help them on in the world. Now no

"some families need more hog and
hominy and less tobacco and whisky,
more fellowship with neighbors and
less hades," concludes the Iowa Falls
Sentinel.
Now that the election is over and
there is no reasonable excuse for
projecting matters of politics into our
daily life for couple Of years, it will
be well to turn our attention to less
sordid things than those which are
featured in the great game of politics"
says the Waterloo Reporter. "Let us
hope chickering's are to be laid aside
for "a good, long rest. and that things
more pleasant may engross our atten-

The Nevada Representative accepts
