THE STATE CONVENTION

In spite of the fact that factional-
ism ran high. the state convention of
last week was q pleasant affair.
There are always some men who are
CONTROLLED, not by factionalism, but by
pettv jealousy and their natural dis
position to oppose all that does not
directly contribute to their own ag-
grandizement. These are apt to be
bitter or boasting according as they
are losers or victors. but the majority
of the republicans. those who are act
ing in good faith. known that fac
tionalism is not all, and can disagree
without rancor.
= Earnestness does not imply vim
dictiveness and we have noticed that
the greater the man the less the per-
sonal element enters into his conduct
or his conversation.
Barring the few professional
knockers and the gimlet states
men who are against everybody but
themselves. the vast majority of the
delegates agreed to disagree with a
cordiality that showed their broad
ness of guage and which bespoke.
much more eloquently than any other
feature of the convention. of the
continued success of the republican
party in Iowa. Very naturally the
stand-pat leaders claim a great VIC
tory and hold that the vote by which
Senator Allison was endorsed as can
didate before the June primaries was
of great moment. Just as naturally.
the progressive minority believe sin
cerely that the resolution adopted was
of no weight and we believe the logic
of the situation was with them in
their claim that it was outside the
province of the state convention to en-
dorse any candidate for any Office at
the June primary. 1t would have
been just as apropos to have recon-
mended candidates for all other
offices to be voted for throughout the
state. The Crawford county delega-
tion took the view that the convention
had nothing to do with the primary.
that resolutions of endorsement were
valueless and calculated only to stir
factional strife. and without regard
to whether the delegates were person
ally friendly either to Allison or Cum
minis they voted as unit against a
senatorial endorsement.
Attorney General Byers made a
great speech as temporary chairman
and sounded keynote of fairness
which could we'll have been followed
by others of the speakers. Senator G.
G. Saunders of Council Bluffs was one
of the stars of the convention. He
acted as permanent chairman and his
absolute fairness disarmed all criti-
cism and made many friends. 1t is
to be regretted that George d.
Perkins failed so pitifully 20 rise to
the heights. He was elected unan-
imously, as delegate at large to
represent Iowa at the National con-
vention. In support of aft the con-
vention was unit. SO far as Mr..
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1908-03-25

Whenever any man raises his head
against the sacred rights of property
as against the rights of man. he is at
once branded as demago9ue, but the
man who holds the dollar above every
other consideration in life is sane.
healthy and honest. This is because
we have concluded as q Nation that
the pursuit of wealth is the only prop
er aim for an American citizen.
Excuse US. At first the reformer
is only crank. 1t is only when he
becomes dagerous that he is branded
as demagogue. Much is said about
the Presidents Ananias class. but
conservatism has demagogue class
which is even more populous. Roose-
welt is a demagogue, 80 is Folk. SO
is La Toilette. so is Cummins. So
was Potatoe Pingree, SO was Golden
Rule Jones.
Property is good thing. Wish
we hadmore of it. Do not wish to
confscate any. but. we maintain that
it has no rights which are superior
to the rights of common humanity.
Louis Fourteenth had much the
same idea of the divine right of Kings
that our capitalists have entertained
as to the divine right of Property.
Louis Fourteenth got it in the neck.
Had it not been for the Rooseyelts of
to-day who have shown the people a
milder course, the great interests of
this country might have suffered the
same fate.
Louis Fourteenth could not imagine
France without King. Yet the
France of to-day is thousand times
better and happier than it would have
been without a Revolution. Capital
tells us that the country would go to
pieces without its multi-milIionaires
but we believe it will survive their
fall.
In the last century the people have
learned great lessons in self-restraint
Peaceful evolution is. we believe. te
take the place of bloody revolution
The people feel however, that the
despotism of wealth is even more gal
ling than the old despotlsm. WEALTH
knows nothing Of mobiles oblige.
1t requires not only brains. but IN
tense and cruel selfshness to become
a multi Millionaire. Neither does the
final requirement of riches change
those qualities which made the acqui
sition possible. The new and wide
spreading belief in the supreme righ
of manhood over property is thing
to be reckoned with.
Rooseveltism, La Folettism, Cum
minism. Folkism. are all parts of the
same movement. We may be more
or less attracted by the indiviiua
leaders. we may find. as their enemie:
hasten to point out, that they are
made of the same clay as the rest OF
us. but whether they survive or per.
ish. the central thought they repre-.
sent is absolutely certain to win.

DIR. vINCENTs LECTURE.
"Thc Mind of the Mob" at Library
Hall Saturday Evening Proves
To be quite Interesting.

Spell binders, crowd psychology
and hypnotism were some Of the top
les touched upon by Dr. Vincent, of
Chicago University in his lecture on
THE Mind of the Mob" which was
given at Library Hall last Saturday
evening. ! was the fourth number
on the School of Mines lecture
course and one of the best of the
entire series
The speaker strilingly Illustrated
the points he brought out in connec-
ton with the subject he was discuss
ing, choosing a rapid fire style of de-
livery with varying tona effects ev-
identity designed to correspond with
the spell-binding methods which were
being described.
Several little stories were inter-
polated here and there in the address
much to the delight of the audience.
Indeed, DR. Vincent mixed humor ana
fact so skilfnlly that even those VINO
are not given to spending much time
IN pondering over psychological ques-
tions were able to spend very pleas
ant evening and incidentally add con-
siderably to their funds Of informa-
ton.
The lecture closed with some peril
nent advice on the subject of allow
ing the mind to come under the
influence of the spell binder and lis
llk and the value of individuality Of
thought was dwelt upon as being
most desirable.
In addition to speaking Saturday
evening, DR.. Vincent pleasantly sur
pflsed the evening congregation at
the Methodist church by appearing
and delivering short address on

HELD QUARTERLY CONFERENCE.
Rev. II. II. Dollivcr In Charge of
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. at the
Parsonage

Monday evening was a banner
event for members of theMethodist
congregation, the quarterly confer
ence being held at the church on that
date followed by reception at the
parsonage.
Rev. r. II. Dolliver, superintendent
of the Black Hills Mission presided
at the conference.
Reports showing the condition and
progress of the church during the
past few months were read and it
was found that a very encouraging
advance movement has been started
under the leadership of C. d. Royse,
who came here last fan. Nearly fif-
ty names have been added to the
church roll and the Sunday school
now has about two hundred scholars
in attendance.
The social hour at the parsonage
was greatly enjoyed by those who
attended. Refreshments were served
by the ladies While the guests chat
ted with oneanother.

OVERLOOK IMPORTANT ITEM.
Saloon Keepers of Gcddcs, S. d., Ne
glcct to File Usual Petition
Within Time Limit.

NProhlbition for year is certain
in Geddes, S. D., owing to the fact
of the saloon keepers having over
looked attending to an important
item until too late. The technicality
ON which the dry forces win the VIC
tory without raising a hand is a pro-
vision made by law, requiring the
filing of a petition requesting that
the license be voted upon, not less
than thirty days from the date of
the election at which the matter is to
be submitted to the voters. If the
liquor men fail to take advantage of
the privilege, the town or district
goes dry, as in the instance at Ged-
des.
The prohibitionists and liquor deal
ers were both preparing for siren
uous battle at the polls this month
when the thunderbolt was dropped
into the ranks of the latter faction.
1t seems chat Rapid City saloon
men were more wide awake than
their bretheren and got their petit
ton filed with the proper authorities
in time to get it before the voters
two weeks hence. On former oc-
casion they were not sospry and only
by streak Of good fortune the mat
ter was arranged SO the proposition
could be submitted to the voters.

investigation by the interstate com
merce commission. Some time ago
III a Factions mood, he advertised to
give free transportation to the one
making correct guess as to whom
would secure control of his line.
whether he was preparing joke or
NO, his offer indicates the intention
to discriminate in rates, and is in vi
olation of the law. 1t is not GER
tain that the interstate commerce
commission will take aoguizance of
the offense.
Another reason the Burlington
could use to advantage the liue be-
tween Rapid City and Mystic, is Civ
en- in connection with their proposed
extension from ONeill, Neb, to Ran
| Id City. This extension is now be-
| lleVed to be more than idle specula-
llon and there have taken place a
number of circumstances of late that
indicate their intention to proceed
with the plan. Ii is not likely that
their control OF the Great Northern
track from Sioux City to O'Neill. is
to end there; ii is not believed that
ne business to be gained hy hat ac-
Qulsltion alone, would have been a
sufficient warrant for the expense in
CURED, Ihat move meant further
extension and the logical plan would
be TO continue through the rich farm
ing country lying north and east of
O'Neill, to Rapid City. From there
they would have an easy ingress in
to Deadwood over the Crouch line TO
Mystic, and the present Burlington
track the rema' 'nder of the way.
1t is given ont on most reliable
authority, that in :ae very near fu-
ture, receivers sale of the Croucn
Lines will be ordered. With the
control Of the stock so evenly divided
between Mr.. Crouch and the HAYES
of Cleveland, and with these two fac
tions at war, there is little chance of
either Of them being able to proceed
with the operation OF the road with
cut opposition from the other. In
this condition of affairs it is not i'm
probable that an outsider may step in
and undertake the reorganization of
the road for the purpose of running
it as railroad should be operated.
And there is no more probable inter-
vener in this trouble than the Bur-
lington. They want it and they have
a hold on it. 1t is reported that the
Crouch Line already owes them be-
tween 100000 and $4,000 for sup
plies and the rumor has gained cir
culation, that the crouch Lines peo-
pie were able to get the two new To-
comotives they have added lately to
their equipment throught the assis-
tance of the Burlington
