Travelling men sometimes riding with

scheme that the officials did not ike

travelling men lined up preventing any

in hand started to enter the cars. Inc
conductor was sorry but they must
show their tickets. SO the first man
deliberately sat down his grip. slowly
unbuttoned his overcoat and undercoat
and produced his mileage. Then he but
toned up, and slowly climbed the car
steps. This was repeated and the train
held for ten minutes while the show
was in progress. And these Issgusted

Mr. LACEY CO INVERTED ROOSEVELT.

Mr.. Lacey, candidate for the repub-
lican nomination for United States
senator, is wondering whether he will
get square DEAF from the newspa-
pers which prefer the nomination of
his opponent. For instance, he con-
siders himself as the original con-
servator Of natural resources and feels
somewhat unappreciated in that this
fact has not been prominently adver-
tised in the Iowa press.
It will, of course, come out in the
literature of the campaign, and be set
forth with considerable detail, but the
Times Republican will give its read
ers a scoop" on the other fellow by
mentioning the matter in advance of
general publicity. When Mr.. Lacey
was in congress twelve years ago his
position as chairman of the house
committee on public lands caused him
to acquire an intense interest in the
matter Of protection for birds and
game, and the establishment of forest
preserves. He introduced many bills
for these purposes, some of which have
since become laws, but most of which
were quite generally laughed at be-
cause Mr.. Lacey was in advance of the
times. For once he was an out and
out progressive, pleading to the deaf
ears of the average standpatter of his
day.
However, Mr.. Lacey persisted. Pres
ident Cleveland gave him very little
encouragement, and President McKin-
ley knew nothing about the unsettled
regions of the country and cared less.
He was essentially urban in his in
terests. But when Roosevelt came to
the White House times changed He
knew all about the west. the plains and
the mountains, and Lacey's bills inter-
esied him. He sent for the bird man
of congress and together they made
the business of conserving natural re-
sources popular Recently a congress
was held to discuss this subject which
attracted international attention and
both national platforms are shouting
quite Justify for the reforms which once
got Lacey laughed at
Mr.. Lacey is going into this cam
paign as the original conserver, the
man who converted Roosevelt and

Near Aredale a man recently lost
his life by accidental shooting. A
friend fooling with a revolver was the
unfortunate cause Of the accident and
was exonerated by the dying man.
However, the man who packs a gun in
Iowa and accidentally kills others
ought not to get off SO easily. The law
against pistol toting should be rig
idly enforced, and the fellow who ac-
cidentally does another man to death
with a revolver should get term for
criminal carelessness. What on earth
does any man need of a pocket full of
deadly weapons in Iowa?

The Newton Record urges that "Ev-

preference for senator In the primary

vocating the man of his choice he
should never forget that the first duty
of every republican is to help elect
the ticket, and especially should he
remember that unless the republican
candidates for senators and represen-
tatives are elected, all that he may do
in favor of his candidate for senator
will be just SO much wasted effort. The
people of Iowa have their minds pretty
well made up on the senatorial ques-
ton and bitter arguments would only
endanger the party interests without IN
the least benefitting Mr.. Cummins or
