A DEMOCRATIC TRIBUTE.

Last week we published tribute to
Senator Allison from q republican
friend. Here Is one from the Waverly
Democrat, written by its editor Charlie
Miller, member of the Iowa legisla-
ture, and the former chairman Of the
Democratic State Central Committee:
Senator William b. Allison's life
work Is done. Finis is written on the
closing page OF volume luminous with
noteworthy achievement and unsullied
by single stain OF private dishonoror
public unfaithfulness. His is u record
that may be closed at once as ample
and perfect Nothing need be omitted
and nothing written In. Standing un-
altered just as tunfolded itself through
the days of his career il enriches the
annals OF American statemanship as
those OF few who have been his contem-
poraries through the long span OF years
that his life was devoted to the public
service.
Always republican, Mr.. Allison's
usefulness was prescribed by the limi-
tations OF party lines, but within that
scope his influence was ever for that
which would rebound to the good Of his
country. And that influence grew from
year to year, not by force OF fervid
oratory or brilliant championship, but
by repeated demonstration of the depth
of his reasoning and the soundness of
his judgment. Thus he became his
party's balance wheel, and as such the
most useful senator OF his generation.
Slow and deliberate to arrive at con-
illusions, when once established they
stood as a bulwark of logic difficult TO
assail. Never free with his opinions
until they reflected his mature judg-
ment, he was often subjected to raillery
for over cautiousness, but OF vacilla-
tion or double dealing, even his Bit
terest opponents never felt occasion
to accuse him.
AS he was ever true to his duty to
public service, he was likewise true to
his political associates. He detested
chicanery as he detested personal dis
honesty, and to the school OF politics
that has to do with the being Of all
things to all men he was complete
stranger. Because he was dependable,
because he never broke promise nor
betrayed trust, because he regarded
his word as a sacred thing, he heldthe
love and confidence of his constituency
unfaltering through SO many years,
and 1t must have been a grateful con-
ISOLATION to his dying moments, as it
will be pleasant thought to all who
will soon gather at his bier, that he
was able to lie down to the dreams of
Immortality with a renewed mapifesta-
tion of this love and confidence so
fresh before him.

MAKE GOOD ROADS

Now that President Roosevelt has
appointed Commission TO consider
questions in the interest of the farm
and make a report to him at an early
day, much is being said in the papers
about how to keep the boys and girls
on, the farm. When itTcomes to that 1t
nigh as well be admitted that many OF
the bows must come to the towns and
cities in order to fill the best places in
business and professional life. And
some of the girls must also come to
grace the homes of these same gentle
men. But many of both sexes leave
the farm who would better remain;
and they would il some conditions
were made more inviting. After fix
ing up the home and it's surroundings
so as to make them attractive-which
can be done without large expense
the one thing ILthat needs to be done
above all others is to make good roads
When the roads are in condition so
that the boys and girls can come and
go most of the year without wading
the mud they will not care so much
about moving to the towns and cities.

CANDIDATE SHERMAN ACCEPTS

After being formally notified OF his
nomination by thecommittee Mr.. Sher-
man responded by saying he was in
Chicago at the convention and he had
an inkling that he had been nominal
ed, which was emphasized by a very
cordial reception when he returned
home. He then made brief and point
ed address which has been highly COM
plimented throughout the country.
After a short discussion OF the tariff,
in which he declared himself for revis-
ion, he said that what the laborer OF
the land desires is the opportunity at
all times to exchange his brain and
Drawn for good pay in good money
A protective tariff and gold standard,
both now existing achievements OF the
Republican party, in spite OF Demo
cratic opposition, give the laborer
that opportunity. The Republican
party believes in the equality of all
men before the law; believes in grant
ing labor every request that does not
seek to accord rights to one man de-
MED to another. Fair minded labor
asks no more, no less, and approves
of the Republican party because O
that party's acts. | have helped tc
make my party's record in the enact
ment of the eighthour law, theemploy

WORTHY OF THE POSITION.

Judge w. r. Green OF the Fifteenth
or Council Bluffs district, Is a candi-
date for the vacancy on the supreme
bench. He was very successful law
yer at Audubon with an enviable prac.
tice. He handled high class OF busi-
ness, often going to the higher courts,
where his arguments were affirmed as
a rule. On the district bench he has
served for fourteen years, and proved
in every way worthy of the position,
winning and holding the confidence OF
the public for his just and righteous
decision. Judge Green Is man OF
high character in his personal and
business relations, scholar and stu
dent, and IL chosen would prove cap
able and worthy in the higher court.

MORE DOGS THAN SHEEP

Secretary Coburn, of the Kansas
Agricultural Society, replies to an in
quiry regarding the raising OF sheep
by saying "That the people Of your
your county appear to be far more
partial to developing the dog industry
than to sheep. For example, they re-
port to this Office under oath that in
1905 the county was cultivating 1859
dogs and l52 sheep, and in 1906 had
increased the dogs to !, TIA and reduced
the sheep to 142. One of the best coun-
ties in the state last year officially re-
ported four sheep and 1856 dogs;
another one sheep and 1885 dogs; a
third, two sheep and 2,790 dogs Con-
corning the quality of the dogs the
the Secretary says "The average
Kansas canine is a worthless, synco-
phantic, law-defying, flea-breeding,
ay-snapping porch loafer by day, is
equaled by no other domestic animal
in habits of unspeakable nastiness; a
sneaking, murderous, cruel coward,
prowling all the countryside by night
with lust for mere wanton slaughter
unknown to any wild beast, and ht
hsrmonizes with the harmless, benefi
cent sheep only after the sleeps flesl
is inside his stomach, its wool in hi
teeth and his jaws dripping with it
blood"

Go And Have a Good Time.

If you want an outing this summer
why not go to the Interstate Fair,
which will be held at Sioux City, Sep
TENDER TIP inclusive? We are inform
ed by the management of the fair that
the grounds are being fixed up and
put in condition for the entertainment
of the ever growing and thriving pop
ulation in Sioux City's territory.
The management has recently secured
railroad rates over all roads coming
into Sioux City. The fare will be only
one and half cents per mile, or 3 cts.
per mile return. Tickets may be pur-
chased any time during fair week and
they will be good until Sept. IA. The
railroads have finally given in on
their fight ag ainst excursion rates since
the two-cent rate went into effect. They
did it reluctantly and it is likely that
there will be excursion rates to Sioux
City for any other occasion than the
Interstate Fair for at least II months.
If, therefore you have some trading
you would like to do in Sioux City it
would be good plan to manage to do
that at the time of the Interstate Fair
and thus save part of the travelling
expense.

GOVERNOR JOHNSON NOMINATED

Governor Johnson, of Minnesota,
was very positive he wouldn't accept
the nomination for third term, but
the democrats paid no attention to
what he said and forced him to take it
or decline it. In order to help the
matter along they gave him an ova-
ton that lasted an hour and five min
utes. Johnson was elected four years
ago and second time two years ago;
he may be elected again, but we doubt
it. Governor Johnson is a Swede.
Four years ago he re ceived large
republican vote because of his nation
ality. Then the republican party was
greatly divided by dissentions. This
year the republicans have nominated
Jacob Jacobsen, who is also Swede,
and he will be as likely to get the
Scandinavian vote as Johnson. Then
instead of being divided the republic
cans are united and will make deter
mined fight for the whole state and
national ticket. We think Johnson
was wise in not wanting third term,
but had to yield to the pressure
brought to bear by his political
friends.

EXTRA SESSION CALLED.

AS stated elsewhere In this issue, an
extra session ofthe Legislature OF Iowa
has been called by Governor A. b.
Cummins in obedience to the wishes Of
his friends and what he believes to be
the predominant sentimentof the party
to which he belongs. The time is fixed
for Monday, August 81. and the object
stated to be "for the purpose of con-
sidering an amendment to the primary
election law which shall provide for
an expression OF choice as between
candidates for the senate OF the United
States at the general election, in the
event that the choice Of any political
party for senator I'm the June primary
becomes unavailing by reason Of death
or otherwise" Now the Governor
should do one thing more In order to
insure united and harmonious SEES
sion, namely, appoint some one to fill
out the unexpired term of Senator
Allison. III the members are lined up
in the extra session on the choice of
senator, they will probably get into q
wrangle that will make matters worse
rather than better. II they will prompt
ly make the amendment suggested by
Gov. Cummins and then quit and go
home there will be general acquiesc-
ence and united action in the election
of the entire ticket; and the candidate
receiving the majority vote will be
chosen by unanimous action of the
Republican members in the coming
general assembly.

LAFOLLETTE IN TROUBLE.

When LaFolette was making his
fights for supremacy in Wisconsin,
the financial sinews of war were large
ly furnished by Isaac Stephenson, a
millionaire lumber man. When SEN
altar Spooner resigned two years ago,
LaFollette backed "Uncle Isaac" for
the senate for the short term, notwith-
standing his age was seventy-eight
years. 1t was understood at the time
by outsiders at least that he would not
ask for full term, but Mr.. Stephen
son likes the senate SO we'll that he is
running on his own account and may
be nominated. This is bringing grief
to Robert and it is said they have
broken their friendship wide apart
over the affair. Uncle like" was all
right as lieutenant, but as an indie
pendent he is all wrong.

Mrs. Wilson had young Japanese
servant who had a habit of trying
to conceal from his mistress any
breakage of dishes of which he
CHANGED to be guilty. The good lady
explained that it was wicked to de-
ceive, and directed the Japanese to
tell her whenever he broke anything.

vised. One day, while Mrs. Wilson
was entertaining some friends in the
parlor, the Japanese suddenly APP
peared in the doorway. His teeth
were barred in childlike smile, and
his eyes sparkled with the light of con-

One Of Bill Nye's.

Referring to a real estate transac-
ton made by one Peter Minuit, way
back in the year 1923, Bill Nye, in his
history of the United States, declared:
New York was afterwards sold for
1924; the whole island. When / think
Of this l go into my family gallery,
which l also use as swear room, and
tell those ancestors what / think Of
them. Where were they when New
York sold for s24?"
The humor of this strikes deeply
when one stops to consider what has
been the outcome of this original in
vestment. Peter Minuit, with trinkets
and few bottles of rum, so delighted
the native indians that they gladly
turned over to him the whole of Man

Owes Recovery to Cuticura.

my son Clyde was almost COM
pletely covered with eczema. Physi-
clans treated him for nearly a year
without helping him any. His head,
face, and neck were covered with large
scabs which he would rub until they
fell off. Then blood and matter would
run out and that would be worse.
Friends coming to see him said that If
he got well he would be disfigured for
life. When it seemed as il he could
possibly stand it no longer, l used
some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura ONT
ment, and Cuticura Resolvent. That
was the first night for nearly a year
that he slept. In the morning there
was great change for the better. In
about six weeks he was perfectly we'll.
