AnaIer,s Bitter Memories.

Although angling has been and still
is one Of the chief delights Of my life,
something bitter always arises when 1
think of my fishing experiences.
Taught from my earliest years to han
die a rod and throw fly, 1t has never
theless never been my good fortune to
grass q really big fish. On the other
hand, some Of the greatest buffers, SO
far as angling goes, have ever known
have wiped my eye'' time and again
at salmon fishing. Only year or two
since had friend staying with me
at Dupplin castle, who, to the best Of
my belief, had never before handled
a salmon rod or any kind of rod In his
life. But almost at the first cast-if
one could dignity the action by such
name-he rose, booked and eventually
grassed a forty FOUNDER. Another
friend, also q most Indifferent fisher
man, killed single handed a splendid
fish that went all but fifty pounds.
But I, who have given years to the
game; have never seen my spring bal
ance tally more than thirty-one pounds.

Drainage of Swamp Lands.

The National Drainage Association
has opened offices in the Dupont
Building, Wilmington, Delaware, and
will enter upon vigorous campaign
looking to the drainage, by govern
ment aid, of the S0,000,OOO acres OF
swamp and overlooked lands within
the United States. In order to facili-
tate the collection of the necessary
data and statistics, the association
requests that all owners OF such
lands, no matter how large or small
their holdings, send their names, ad-
dress, number of acres of such land
owned, to the association at the above
address. The receipt of this data will
greatly aid in the early prosecution OF
this work, and will be of great adj
vantage not only to the country at
large, but especially to individual
owners of swamp and overfiowed
lands.

derful indeed. The trapeze work
was a great feature of the show, the

The management evidently tried to

was good and thousands of people had

Homer Daniel tells of queer thing
that came under the observation of the
Glenwood automobile party to Oko-
boji. At Dension they have $780, 900
hotel that was built some sew years
ago. and which has never been oc-
cupied since no landlord can afford to
pay the rent. Some enthusiastic capt.
ta!ists at Denlson got it into there
heads that the Secretary of the Treas
ury Shaw of those days would surely
be nominated for the presidency. and
that the town would become the Mec-
ca of the political clubs of the entire
country. They took time by the fore
lock as they thought. but it proved to
be only fetlock. 1t has turned out
one of those monumental follies that
become laughing stock. and is one
of the stories told by travlers to the
folks at home.

Just the thing which the ext

tic. Just the thing which the ext
gencies of the party demanded should
be avoided. The old line up of stand
patters and progressives was accentu-
ated and the progressives united with
the democrats to compel a vote for
United States senator for the short
term and. this being done. they in
sisted that the Governor be elected.
The stand patters refused to take part
in a caucus for the nomination of
short term senator. They bolted the
caucus call. but the progressives
bolted the program of the peace con-
ference. if that amounted to any,
thing, so it would appear that dis
honors are about even.
We are loath to think that Gov.
Cummins would of his own accord
have involved the party in this fear
full muddle. We lay the whole trouble
to the band of mercenaries who have
| fastened themselves to his faction,
fattened on of his popularity and who
would have no further excuse for liv-
ing, nor any visible means of support.
if there should be harmony and peace
in the republican ranks. Had Gov
ernor Cummins allowed nature to
take its course in the senatorial situa-
ton there is no doubt but that he
could have been the almost unanimous
choice of the republicans of Iowa for
the succession. AS it is. we do not
believe he will ever wear the toga.
Just as his mercenaries defeated him
in June by their frenzied efforts TO
have they now by their bad and sell
fish counsel involved him in strife of
renewed and aggravated bitterness
from which there can be no outcome
but defeat.
Such political DULLES as Keltz and
the Marshalltown Times Republican
very evidently care much less for the
election of their chief than they dc
for a continuance of the warfare
which is their only stock in trade.
II is greatly to be regretted that Gov.
Cummins was unable to prevail over
the unwisdom of his friends for ''un.
der the circumstances his own cleo
ton to the senate is made well-nigh
impossible and the election of demo
crat is made the highly probable re-
suit While nothing has occurred tc
change cur views as to the senatorial
succession. we think most serious
tactical blunder has been made, anc
a blunder is worse than crime in poll
ties or war.

THE DIES MONIES SITUATION.

The political situation at Des
Moines has been seriously complicated
by the injection of legislative cleo
tion for the senatorial succession for
the short term. lnasmuch as the
session was called by Governor Cum
Minis for the specific purpose OF send
ing the question back to the people,
and inasmuch as one of the slogans
of the Progressives has been for the
election of United States senators by
direct vote of the people. We are in
clined to think that the so-called Fly
ing Squadron has again placed the
Governor in most embarrassing posi-
ton.
There is reason to believe that his
friends could have pushed through a
reasonable primary amendment and
have adjourned If it was positively
necessary that short time senator
should be elected, the Governor S
friends could easily have united upon
some one who would have been ac-
ceptable to the people as compro-
mise but who would not have been q
candidate for the long term.
| After Senator Allison's death we
believe there was general accept
ance of Gov. Cummins as his success
sor. Many stand-pattcrs went on
! record that the fight had gone far
enough and that they were willing to
| drop it and bow to the seeming decree
of Providence. The first miss-step
was the Peace Conference called
by Chairman FRANKIE. The best thing
to Go with a sore is to leave it alone
But Chairman FRANKIE insisted upon
calling together a thousand prominent
republicans, but still republicans who
were acting wholly without commits
sion from the party in this instance
The result of the conference was
better than could have been expected.
Governor Cunmins recognized the
principle which had been one of the
cardinal tenets of his political creed
and convoked the legislature for the
purpose of sending the question back
to the people.
There promised to be some dispute
as to the conditions of the primary
but no very serious disagreement was
expected.
The legislature however instead Of
going earnestly to work to prepare 4
primary amendment on the double
quick. began at once to "play poll

HOW UNSEARCHABLE THY WAYS.

1t was the wise, good heart of the
man that prompted Father Farrelly to
chose these words for his text at
the funeral of Mrs. H. j. Cummings.
There are so many times in life and
in death when one cannot in his own
mind explain or even justify the ways
of Providence. One can but accept
them, believing. with a faith that
is blind, that He doeth all things
we'll.
AS we viewed the great congrega
ton on Saturday morning. gathered
from all parts of the county, and felt
the common bond of sympathy and
love, the tie of mutual grief. we
wondered if it was not part of
Gods great plan to draw US all.
Catholic and Protestant; German,
Irish, Swede. American, together in
the close relationship of sorrow. To
teach to US that it is not the form
of worship, but the sincerity of
worship, which is the real factor; to
make US know that it is not the
things in which we differ. but the
things in which we agree, that
are important. We have been led to
wonder if it was not a part of Gods
plan that these lives. little lives
and big lives, should be laid upon
the sacrifcal altar, to break down
the barriers of prejudice and Phari-
seeism and show to all of US our
naked hearts. stripped of DISCUSSES of
church or creed or accident of birth.
Let these great sorrows teach us to
pray in common, to the end that we
may meet in that common Heaven
which knows no soul of black folks or
of white, of wealth or poverty. of ig-
norance or learning, of one church or
another.
The grief which all feel for the
family, thus suddenly deprived of a
mothers love is as sincere and heart

THE VACANT CHAIR.

Just for the benefit of all concerned
we are going to admit that there are
the names OF few dead men on the
Review list. We admit it and we are
glad of it and proud of it,
The Review is the old-old paper.
Back in its file you find the wedding no
tice that told of the forming of new
home out on the prairie. 1t is an ole
home now. but once it was the honey
moon nest of Eappy lovers.
1t was soon after the wedding no
tice that the Review gained a new
subscriber. Both His family and Her
family took the paper, and when
they set up housekeeping for them
selves it seemed mighty lonesome,
after all. without the old paper every
week, and then. too. it lent new dig
nifty to the young folks to have the
paper come in their own name
BY ard by there was birth notice
in the Review and as the years passed
there were others. Once there was a
death notice, and Mother has that pa
per laid away with lock of sun
shiney hair. And the years passed
and the good old paper kept on COM
ing. The boys and girls got married
and kept the paper themselves in
their own homes but it was comfort
to Father to have paper of his own .
And finally, in the fullness of time.
Father died. 1t was noble death
after life of goodly deeds. And the
old Review had Fathers picture in it
and said some things that were. after
all, comfort. because they were true
and because the Review had sort of
grown up with Father and knew him
from the old days; knew more about
him than stranger could. who saw
in him only broken down old man.
stranger who knew nothing of the
splendid youth, the valiant middle age.
Since Father died things haven
been the same to mother. She seems
to be living in the past and to be
waiting with patient sweetness for
the end to come. And sometimes in
the evening she sits out on the porch
with the paper in her hand and as she
sees the dear old name on the yellow
label, fathers name. that has never
been changed, tear of loving memory
CLEANS an instant. then trickles slow
iy down her withered cheek. Some
times we wonder if she does not see
father sitting there in the chair just
opposite, his slippered feet up on the
rail, reading with solemn affection
the sonorous sentences of the kindly,
thoughtful editorials of his friend and
advisor old 81. Fred No, they
would not have the name changed
for good deal. AS long as Mothel
lives the paper will come in the deal
old name. and as long as Mother live
it will be paid in advance the SAM
week of every year. Yes, yes. it il
true, the names of the departed, Got
bless them, have not all been stricke
from the roll of the Review.
