that Il ''sIasher" is again at work in
New York. Several women have re-
ported that their garments have been
cut in the subway station at 42nd

the work were being done by one man.
In most instances the garments cut
have been WOmen'S coats, slashes a

back about twelve inches from the
bottom. Two years ago a "slasher''
did similar work and while detectives
were put specially on the case, the
culprit was never captured.

Rockwell City Advocate: The
fact that Keltz was a progressive is
no excuse for Governor Carroll want
ing to relieve him from official duty,
neither is it any reason why he should
stay in Office if he has been grating
off the state. Let the investigation
be thorough and if it shall appear
that no wrong has been done by the
pharmacy commissioner Governor Car
roll will be placed in an unpleasant
light. If the commissioner has been
charging for time not put in for the
state and for travelling expenses while
remaining at home all will admit that
it is time for change.

Independence Bulletin Journal: We
sincerely hope that the editor of the
Chronicle does not mean that offenders
of the Keltz stamp should be shielded
because they were enlisted under the
progressive banner in Iowa politics.
In our opinion that is all the more
reason why they should be dealt with.
The revolt in Iowa politics which cul-
minated in 1901 was the result of q
general demand for cleaner admins
tration, better men in Office and purer
administration. It was charged. and
with undoubted truth, that the ma
chine that had come to dominate Iowa
republicanism demanded nothing from
an officeholder but complete subser-
vience. and that so long as he gave
that he was at liberty to secure his
little pickings undisturbed. There
fore, if Keltz and other appointees of
progressive administrations have mis-
used their opportunities they are doub-
ly blamable, for they have betrayed
their friends and have thrown down
the men who trusted them to carry
the banner Of reform. Just as we ex-
pect more of the preacher, the teacher
and the judge on the bench than we
do of the man on the street. SO do we
fix q higher line of action for the
officeholder who secures his place as
result of movement for better gov.
eminent. If such man falls by the
wayside. he has not only proven him.

official decapitation by Governor Car

ting up fight that has in it some
elements of embarrassment tor the
Governor unless it can be shown that
Mr.. Keltz has over stepped the bounds
of truth. The Governor alleges that
Mr.. Keltz has charged for time that
he has not put in for the state. In
other words he is accused of making
his Office virtually a salaried Office by
charging for every work day in the
year when in fact there was but little
work to be done. Mr.. Keltz declares
that he did some work for the state
on every day for which he charged.
He says that Governor Carroll him
