have been the most deliciously trench.
antipisitles that have figured in an
American political campaign for many
years.
Thus suddenly rebuffed and unable
to establish claim to the coveted
policies, Mr.. Bryan after the first
OF contact with the witness, came to
the conclusion that the heritage was,
after all not worth having and began
vituperative attack on the record of
the president. What had he accom-
plished anyway? No trust magnate
had been placed in Jail. Great COM
binations existed STILL. He had other
remedies for their determination
which would effectually stiffle all cor
porate cancers.
So Iowa is listening, with it's sense
OF humor sharpened by the situation,
to Hon. Fred White praising Roose-
welt to the skies and at the same
time reading in the newspapers the bit
ter attacks on the same strenuous
party from the pen of the leader of
national Democracy.
Mr.. Whites troubles do not cease
here, however. In past campaigns he
has been one of the most vehement
and bitter opponents of Governor
Cummins. This year, however, the
iowa governor was placed in class
with Roosevelt and held up as model
of every political virtue This was
before an arrangement had been
made for a senatorial primary. 1t
was hoped that by soft-soaping the
friends of the executive, they could
be wheddled into voting for the Dem
ocratic nominee for governor. But
when the legislature provided for an
other primary, it was found that
every boost for Governor Cummins
was knock on Claude Porter who
also aspires to the Allison toga. This
line of tactics is now abandoned and
the entire Republican administration
is being berated.
Those who have pointed out the
fact that MI. Bryan and Democracy
could not be trusted to maintain action
| along one issue in two consecutive
campaigns have stated the case too
mildly. Experience of the past few
weeks has shown that they reserve
the right to abandon one line of at
tack, forget it and take up another en-
tlrely contradictory of the first, even
before the campaign has run half it's
| length.

An Excellent Sermon.

On last Sunday morning the
Presbyterian church was beautiful
ly decorated, not only with flowers
but with our cOuntry's flag as a
background and two smaller flags
artistically draped in front of the
pulpit, from which Rev. Harden
delivered an excellent sermon for
the Grand Army men, the w. r
G. and the Ladies of the Grand
Army who were then in a body by
special invitation on his part. 1t
was very graceful act on the
part of Rev. Harden whose father
was confederate soldier who
bravely defended the ''Bonnie Blue
Flag" of the South, in the sixties.
The broadminded young pastor
evidently realizes that the war is
oyer and that we are all Ameri-
cans.

FOREST NOT ALWAYS SILENT
Prof. Garner Authority for Assertion
That Wild Animals Converse.

The chatter OF monkeys is a real
chatter and conversation, some folks
say. Prof. r. l.. Garner, who has spent
the greater Part of several years in
the forests of Africa studying the Ian
guages of monkeys and other animals,
says silence is not an absolute ele-
ment in the safety Of wild animal life.
Wild animals are more taciturn than
domestic animals, as also are the wild
tribes of human beings. This he at
tributes to lack of social intimacies
and nomadic habits. The carnivora,
the only natural enemies which other
animals have any cause to fear
through the sound of their voices, de-
pend almost entirely upon the sense
OF smell in pursuing their game, every
species having its peculiar odor. Also
the carnivora generally hunt at night,
selling their prey while asleep. The
animals which have the fewest rea.
sons to fear betrayal by their voices
are by nature the most silent. During
Prof. Gamers three years residence
In the jungle he found that the chin
panzee frequently breaks the silence
of the forest by answering the cries
OF the various other animals. The
gorilla is less lopuacious, but there
are times when he ignores all danger
OF betrayal and gives vent to a deluge
OF speech. Other monkey species are
persistent takers, and can be heard at
almost any hour. The trumpeting Of
the elephant is common at night, and
the believing of the hippopotamus
by day or night. The antelopes cry at
night when the leopard is on the hunt
for them, the latter also granting.
