gram of e acts, the performances
were given to crowds that filed the
great am%pitheatre night after night
for many weeks. The new thriller,
Autos that pass in the Air." which
is the climax of the great program,
was voted the most sensational exhi-
bition of daring of all times.
Additional interest is felt in the
coming of the show to this city be-
cause of the reinstatement of the street
parade. 1t will be nothing like those
Of the past. All the wonders of the
world have been assembled in this
pageant, and the money it cost passes
the million mark. In the parade
alone 1900 people and 700 horses are
utilized.
The spectacle which introduces the
pe rformance Is this season ever more
elaborate and interesting than those
of the past. The seating arrange
ments have been improved and various
new devices have been introduced to
increase the comfort of patrons. The
performance is given in three rings,
on two stages, q vast hippOdrOme
track and in the dome. Fourteen
acres of ground are required to give
room to the many tents. To trans
port all this equipment requires five
long trains of double length cars.

as another, and they thought and !
think that the railways should elm
mate the discrimination in this branch
Of their service and charge everybody
two cents mile, and then II the same
number of people travel upon their
railways, their revenues from that
source would be and will be as great as

Long. ago we decided here that II you

another man had q steer to send to
Chicago, that your steer was just as
good as the other mans steer and 1t
could go to Chicago at the same rate.
We applied the same rule as to hogs,
/, and see no reason why this equitable
principle should not be applied to men
and women as we'll. And that is the
principle, that is the analyses, Of the
2-cent fare law.
"They passed law also that forbids
corporations contributing to political
campaigns or political candidates. The
great shame Of former years has been

people with whom they did business

the details of the bland smile which
is worn during the summer months

shipload. In a few more weeks the
touring season will have attained the
fullness of it's activities. In every
out of the-way corner Of the conti-
nent, as well as in the cities and
along the more familiar routes of trav-
ell, eager, curious Americans will pause
briefly, but in a continuous stream,
between now and October. to dissem-
mate good will and sound dollars. Few
hamlets and villages in Europe are too

MAY MUSIC.

This is the glad Maytinle, made all
the more joyous by the pleasant
strains from the May festivals Of mu-
sic which are heard thruout the land,
and the shades Of every music COM
poser from Abt to Zitterbart, including
all the great makers of tone poems,
from the simplest ballad to the great
symphonies and music dramas, must
now rejoice in the spirit land. Many
of the music masters who did not get
their lust needs of praise and pay In
their own time are getting it at this
late day.
rs Commercial age tho this be. 1t shows
itself attuned to the spirit of praise
and concord In full proportion with
the advancement Of every phase OF
modern life from commerce to SCI
ence.
The neighboring towns Of Grinnell
and Mount Vernon are just about to
have their annual celebrations of spring
music with feasts Of tone and SYM
phony which must appeal powerfully
to all who have the spirit Of music
within their minds. Great choruses of
mixed voices will be raised in song,
while singers Of renown. engaged from
far parts of the country, will appear In
solo singing in it's highest develop
ment. Artists on solo instruments,
ranging from the violin to the grand
pipe organ, will be included in the
offerings, and last, but not least, great
orchestras of instrumentalists will
pour forth harmonies in wondrous ar
ray.
Such a beautiful time Of the year is
certainly we'll chosen for musical ex-
preston of the emotions Of heart and
mind True, everybody cannot sing
nor can everybody play, but all may
enjoy. and the public appreciation Of
such events is shown by the indica-
lions Of success generally.
A most important feature of all the
May festivals which has come under
notice Is the religious phase which Is
plainly paramount in these grand mu-
steal observances. They will give de-
served prominence to sacred works,
such as cantatas, oratorios and arias,
in which chorus, orchestra, organ and
soloists take part, vehry material
evidence of the spiritual side of the
celebration. Music, like all other good
things. comes from the Creator of
mankind, and it seems most fitting
and consistent that it, as we'll as ma
terial contributions, should be- made
an offering to the Maker of every good
and perfect gift.

DIDN'T BENEFIT IOWA.
lSioux City Tribunel

N lily. iouASl
Dolliver and Allison voted Willingly
or unwittingly for an unnecessary 20
per cent increase of an already oppres-
sive tax. AS has been shown this 20
per cent levy has extorted more than
five hundred million dollars from tax
payers-enough to create 500 more
millionaires. And not one millionaire
was made In Iowa No farmer ever be-
came a millionaire by taking thought
and toiling. In the ten years during
which this unnecessary 20 per cent was
breeding $50O,OOO,oOO, the farmers of
Iowa have been wonderfully blessed of
God The sun has shone for them, the
rain fell and the wind blew fair. And
industriously they toiled and sweat,
dreamed and schemed to make the
most Of it, Their wives pinched and
their children left school early. Never
theless not one of them was made a
millionaire. Who got the $500,00O,OOO?
And why should our senators, knowing
the tax to be as Ubiquitous as 1T is In
equitable and unnecessary. have kept
still about it? Why did they not take
example of Alexander Hamilton?

A SLAP AT ROOSEVELT.

The selection of Senator Burrows TOR
temporary chairman OF the national re-
publican convention is a move upon
the political chess board which means
much. 1t Is part of a carefully planned
game to accomplish reaction from the
era OF Rooseveltism. The friends of
the administration wanted Senator
Beveridge to be temporary chairman
and make ringing Roosevelt speech.
The conservatives suggested Senator
Dolliver, whom they thought would
consult Senator Allison and make a
speech which would tread the whole
keyboard without the accidental strik-
Ing OF single note. No one thought
of Burrows. But Burrows is a conser-
vative with very little use for Roose-
Welt It Is freely commented in Wash
ington that 1--WE are going to get back
to where we were before Roosevelt"
and the selection of Burrows is part Of
the game. President Roosevelt SO I'M
derstands 1t.
The selection has the same political
Importance that the selection Of Jim
Trewin for temporary. chairman Of a
republican convention controlled by
Blythe and the railroad faction had in
Iowa. 1t is an indication of the re-
action which President Roosevelt says
is being sought, and which Jim Good
says ought not to be permitted If the
people will send to congress somebody
besides railroad attorneys. Taft is
going to be nominated because the re-
dictionaries can't prevent it, but If they
have their way there will be nothing
more said in the national platform re-
garding Roosevelt policies than was
said by the recent standpat convention
in Iowa, which was nothing.
Roosevelt ought to write his own
platform and have it introduced by
some minority member as his plat
form and the gang would be forced to
accept it just as four progressives on
the resolutions committee at Des
Aloines forced the standpat majority
to swallow the Taft Ohio plank much
against their will The gauntlet has
been thrown down to him in the selec-
ton Of Burrows.

to make the complaint to the proper
