in everything, eating, drinking ana
smoking. Some of his friends think ne
smokes too much, but our ministerial
friends car forgive that. His public
career insofar as the sale of intoXl-
eating liquors is concerned, contains
no record of any oct on his part. LiV-
ing in a city notorious as the state
of Dubuque city that never made
any pretense of obeying the prohlD-
itory law, and only of late has began
to observe the mulct law, this thanks
to the agitation Of our Roman Cath
Ole clergy, Senator Allison, as cit
izen of Dubuque, has never done any
thing privately or publicly to end the
reign of lawlessness, to aid Sunday
closing, or restrain the illegal sale Oh
liquors The writer makes no claim
that Senator Allison was in duty
bound to start or help along any tenn
perance movement. This lis mere
statement that as a citizen of Dubuque
he quietly submitted ito the condition
OF affairs.
The private life of Governor Cum
minis is that of teetotler, insofar as

cerned. He has not even the smaller
vice of user of tobacco. His pubic
record is that of an anti prohibition
list He Goes not think prohibition the
best plan to control the sale Of lntoxl-
eating liquors. He was two years IN
advance of the republican party IN
stating his position, but the party came
to his way of thinking when the mulct
law was put on the statute books. HIS
record ir the matter of enforcement
is a subject fresh in the minds of the
people
One more Indictment. At this time
steps are being taken to resubmit the
question of constitutional prohibition.
The failure of statuatory prohibition in
Iowa seems not to have the slightest
effect in checking this work. That
thousands of dollars will be expended
and much time and influence used. is
a foregone conclusion. That this mon
ey time and influence might be wisely
used as levers in compelling the en-
forcement of our present laws. seems
to be lost sight Of. That today we
have in Iowa a prohibition law, that
backed by public sentiment strong
enough, can close every saloon In
Iowa. is never mentioned That the
recent enforcement work in Musca-
tine and Ottumwa has closed the sa-
looms ir those towns, is a matter OF
record. But If the friends Of consti-
tutional prohibition intend by such
measure to destroy the present mulct
law. to end the present pharmacy law,
why not so state 1t in the bond. Con-
stitutional prohibition means an i'm
mediate notification Of all law con-
corning the sale of intoxicating liquors
in Iowa. Are the people ready for the
question?

SENSIBLE CHURCH MERGER.

(AICOn SldF flleTpFlSe.J
A late number of the Ames Intelli-
gencer contains an account of what
seems a sensible move on the part of
number of weak churches in the
west end of Ames, and in proximity
to the state college. These are
Friends, United Brethren, Metho-
dists and Volunteers of America.
The Friends have a meeting house.
but are unable to keep up regular
services. The others will join, and
buy the property. set up a union
church with platform large enough
to accommodate all.
There are many towns trying to
maintain several struggling organiza-
lions that would do well to put aside
pride and glory in mere name, and
emulate the Ames people in attain
ing the substantial results Of regular
religious services.
The section of Ames in which the
merger is being worked out is remote
from the main city, where there are
several flourishing organizations, but
which are practically inaccessible to
the people interested, especially chill
dren, on account of having to cross
the railroad tracks.

IOWA OR ALLISON UNREADY?

(Sioux City Tribune.)
The Davenport Times, as a buffer
to the charge of Allison's inertness
during the ten years that elapsed after
the supreme court took the starch out
of the interstate commerce act, says
that "Allison had no reason to be-
lieve that Iowa was ready to support
that kind of legislation" And this
from a paper printed in one of the
original Granger states which carried
to the supreme court the fight for the
principle that railways are public
highways and that the government has
power to fix rates.

"Mr. Shaw is republican of the old
school, He has not travelled around
the country trying to break into the
democratic ranks by espousing and ex-
pounding democratic doctrines. He is
no proselyte. He says when the is
sues of his party do not suit him and
he finds the democratic party's are in
accord with his own political ideas, he
will not ride democratic mule envel-
oped in an elephants hide. He will be
democrat in the open and not in the
brush" says the Burlington Gazette,
