he has communicated his willingness
to submit his candidacy for the regular

farther and told his friends that even
tho elected to the vacancy he will never
seek to fill it if defeated by the voters
but will resign and permit mis- sue

proposition amounts i'm fact to an offer
to let the votes of a primary settle
both the short and the long term and
to let his opponents write the law gov

THE LAST OF THE CIRCUIT RIDERS.

At Des Moines yesterday an old
man went to his reward who might
have claimed for himself the title Last
of the Circuit Riders" He had served
his Master and the Methodist chuSch
Of Iowa since 1851, a period that COW
cred the pioneer work Of Christianity
and the church In this state and. in
effect, the institution and propagation
of churches thruout the northwest.
Few names are better known to the
early commonalty Of Iowa Methodis1n
than that Of Francis Wesley Evans, "a
preacher"
While we have built monuments to
the memory of other men who have
lived and died for an idea we have left
unnoted, tho not forgotten. that army
of self sacrificing men who broke the
sod and sowed the seed for the grand
growth Of Christianity and religious
organization which exists in Iowa and
the states that were new when these
men were young The story of the
early ministers is as fascinating as
those of the adventurous who won the
soil from the savages and set up cfvili-
cation in the midst of barbartsm at
risk of their lives. The pioneer preacher
faced hardship, danger and starvation
TO carry the Word into the remote
places. He had no church, he was for
tunate to find q log school house to
furish temporary tabernacle. Often
he came to preach from the doorstep
Of a rude and narrow dwelling or from
a wagon to a meager congregation that
had been gathered over a county of
;unconquered paririe for the Sunday
service that came at long and infre-
Suuent Intervals He rode horseback or
walked, swan rivers. forded creeks
and skirted slonghs, lay out at night
when often occasion required, but
pushed on in his Masters business un-
afraid and uncomplaining. He had no
hope OF future wealth In the value of
the land he held, for he held none. r.
resistibly imbued with his task. he set
his face to the horizon day by day
needless of what lay beyond except OPP
sportunity to-, bring the Word to the
scattered pioneers who awaited it. The
circuit rider was hero, and if hero
ism is to be honored and self sacrifice
exalted his name belongs at the head
of those who served because service
was needed, not because service is re-.
warded.
Raise Of shaft of marble, sheer, plain,
clear and white in the shadow of the
Capitol. Grave deep in its facets the
names of the men whose labors made
for the high citizenship the splendid
dome represents and covers. Let it rise
side by side with the monument that
points mutely and everlastingly to the
memory of those other heroes who died
that the nation might exist in honor;
for the circuit rider fought the good
fight thru days of hardship and nights
Of pain even unto death.

CALL THE ROLL.

If the situation at Des Moines were
all that it appears to be the present
would be the most critical moment
that has confronted the republican
party in Iowa in twenty five years. 1t
has been discovered that the federal
statutes make it obligatory upon the
legislature to elect a senator at this
time. The progressive republicans, who
are majority of the republican mem
bership in both houses, have voted in
conference to elect Governor Cummins
senator. The standpat republicans to a
large number now threaten to bolt
republican caucus and deadlock the
legislature for the purpose of beating
Cummins. If they persist and act as
they threaten, the federal law will re-
quire the legislature to remain in ses-
sion and ballot on senator each success
sive day until the deadlock is broken.
Such a procedure would make Iowa
democratic on the national, state and

sinking of the ship in order to get rid
of one candidate and would make OF
him such martyr as to give him COM
plete control of the party when re-or-
gained.
But there is much evidence that the
standpat move is more bluff than de-
termination. They know full we'll that
the progressives were not all of one,
mind as to the wisdom of electing
Cummins at this time and they believe
that a stiff bluff and threat OF disaster
will cause the progressive phalanx to
waver. 1t is their purpose to force a
com romise of any description Just so
it will assist in putting ascritnp In
.Cumnins.

self in great cities is the argument of
the vicious, the unthinking and the
timid That it has existed thus for an
indefinite time is no valid reason why
lit should be>permitted to regulate it

ly in the ascendency in every city and
that vice can and would be suppressed
If decency had sand and lacked greed.
In the Des Moines case the legisla-
ture should if necessary. assist with
legislation that will permit the city to
control itself, even to the extent Of the
complete suppression of vice. II Des
Moines wants to clean house she

statutes To be sure vice has a vote
and one that pumps against those who
favor it's suppression and regulation.
However, it is coming to this: that
decency has a good vote of its own
and is getting ready to plump against
those who forget it.

temporary appointment to fill this
vacancy pending the meeting OF the
legislature in regular session. 1t is the
duty OF the legislature, being in SEES
sion to choose a senator for the un-
expired term. The legislature is not
obligated to amend the primary
election law. but 1t is obligated by the
constitution of the United States to
proceed to the choice of a senator.
II the governors reasoning as to
his duty In calling the legislature
together is good. being based on
matter OF independent executive
Judgment, the duty Of the Legislature,
under the organic law of the country,
is beyond sound argument. The legis-
lature is not responsible for the ses-
sion, but it is responsible for Its
conduct now that it is in session. In
answering the proclamation OF the
governor 1t complied with the author
ity vested in him by the state consti-
tuition. It is now responsible to the
authority vested in the legislature by
the constitution OF the state and by
the constitution of the United States.
The one thing binding upon the leg
islature is the choice of senator OF
the United States to fill the vacancy.
'If vacancies happen by resignation,
or otherwise, during the recess of the
legislature OF any state, the executive
thereof may make temporary appoint
mer,ts until the next meeting OF the
legislature. which shall then fill such
vacancies" This is the uneqnivocal
order of the constitution of the United
Sr1< I,,t ~ he
lature is no more matter Of personal
judgment than the duty to assemble
In compliance with the governors
proclamation.
It Is said 1t would be unWise to
choose temporary senator = that 1t
would involve candidates on the re-
publican ticket In perplexity. That Is
q matter than was entitled to executive
consideration in determining his judg-
ment with reference to the special
session. 1t is presumable the govern
or was thorough in his consideration
of the situation. He determined that
he could not do otherwise in the dis
charge Of his; duty than call the ses-
sion The legislature should be equally
courageous in the discharge of its
duty
Judgment based on personal inter-
est cannot be justified 1t is agreed
that an unconstitutional amendment
to the primary election law would be
indefensible. BY the same logic 1t
must be agreed that neglect OF con-
stitutional requirement. would involve
defiance of plain duty.
The legislature may be unable to
choose. If that should prove to be
the case the inexpediency of calling
the legislature together would be made
apparent. The duty OF the member -
himself in conscientious way and to
his constituents cannot be ignored.
The obligation to proceed to a choice
is clear. II a choice cannot be made
the lack Of harmony in the majority
party will be made conclusive and the
responsibility for the abridgment of
the representation of the state in the
senate will be exclusively with the
state.
The duty OF the legislature is to pro-
coed to the task Of choosing a tenn
porary senator
