WITH THE PRESIDENT.

It is Congressman Princes judg-
ment, based upon close observation
during the trying special session OF
congress, which began shortly after
the inauguration, that President Taft
is demonstrating qualities which
make him a splendid executive. Mr..
Prince has long represented the Fit
teenth Illinois district in the national
house with conspicuous ability and his
judgment commands general respect.
He was in Kewanee few days ago
and the Star-Courier there represents
him as expressing the belief that the
President is making good" in every
way and that the country will come
to like him better the longer he is in
office. Mr.. Prince believes that the
recommendations of the President in
the forthcoming session will be high
ly important and that they will meet
with general approval. Inference
from his remarks is all to the effect
that he intends to stand by the Presi-
dent and do all in his power to work
out the policies which Mr.. Taft has
enunciated. That is clearly his duty
as Republican representative.

jail at Clayton, where he had been
taken. Otherwise, the operation was
declared to be complete success.
An Awkward Situation.

Coon Rapids Enterprise: Word is
sent out from Des Moines to the pro-
gressive press that the standpatters
are to make flight" to control the
coming state convention and thus pre-
vent an Endorsement OF the course of
Senators Dolliver and Cummins and
the insurgent congressman More
than likely this is just wind, but, any
way, it is seen that the insurgent
forces think it necessary to put the
rank and file on guard. But the com.
ing state convention will have an EN-
barrassing situation to meet. 1t can't
indorse the insurgents without con.
demning the Republican party and the
administration, and vice versa. It's
going to be an awkward plight. Maybe
it would be just as we'll to say moth
ing and let it go at that. II either
the administration or the insurgents
are Endorsed, the minority faction
will get redheaded And, really, what
good, politically, would come from in.

Editors and Readers.

Cedar Rapids Republican: Some
newspaper readers have queer ideas
of things. That is once in while
there is a man comes up with such
a queer idea. We fonud one the other
day who actually thought that news
paper never published an article that
did not express the personal views OF
the editor 1t was pleasure to tell
him that editors do not personally en-
dorse everything they print. It Is
their business to print all that Is nap
pening. Nor is it intended that every
reader of a newspaper shall be inter-
ested in everything that is printed.
The banker may not be interested ID
an article on needle work, but the
newspaper must print such things,
nevertheless. A newspaper is sup
posed to lay everything on its table
and each one is supposed to pick out
and read the things in which he IS
| interested. Some people read only
j the sporting news, others only the Il
/ nanciaI news, still others only the re-
/ ligiOuS news, and SOME. VI ehSSS =
read little or nothing else. When q
man walks through a garden ne does
not eat of all the fruit. but he eats
/ those he likes. But the fact that one
I man does not like tomatoes does mol
mean that the gardener shall plant
no tomatoes, for others do Ike them
4 In short, a newspaper must aim e
be a reflection of the news and ths
views of the world and each MAJ
must learn to pick out the things
that he likes to know about and no
i quarrel with the editor because there
are some things there that he is no
interested in, but which may be in
tensely interesting to his next doc
; nefghbor. So far as the editors ar
. concerned, there are SO many thing

Marion Register: After refusing
5000 advertisement from one of Chi
cago's big department stores not two
months ago we heard that the big
Indian of one of Marion's second class
stores had said that If the Marion pa
pers were great big papers like the

them but that he had little use for

When Roosevelt Returns.

Washington Gowa) Democrat:
Listen, we are going to put IN print
thing that number of Republicans
have suggested to us in the last two
weeks and it is this: Roosevelt VIII
be home about March 1910. Mean
time. politics will sizzle and get hotter
than blue blazes but all to no purpose.
In March Roosevelt will be home and
then whichever way the cat jumps,
the fight will go. No other man mas
such hold on the people as Roose-
welt has. No other man ever had
such hold on them except Andy
Jackson. If Roosevelt lines up with
Taft, goodbye insurgents. The Jig is
UP. But If he should go against Tart
and line UP with the kickers, there
will be hell to pay and no pitch hot
The fur will fly From Kalamazoo to
Galveston bay and from Hells gate to
I Cliff House, there will be razors In
the air and the element that loses the
sympathy of Roosevelt will be down
and out and the door will be locked
with the KEY thrown in the well. We
shall not prophesy what he will do
for fear that Seth Carris or some
other outlandish Republican vii
/ throw it up to us like he did the

not afraid, we would predict tina
Roosevelt will line up with his pro
tege Taft. And then look out!

Mr., CURTIS AGAIN.

Mr.. William E. Curtis was recent
" quoted in these columns as saying
that the more the new tariff law is
examined the more evidence is dis
covered that the revision was down
ward rather than upward: also that
it is undoubtedly the most consistent
and scientific tariff law that has been
enacted. In connection with these
statements Mr. Curtis made others
no less worthy of attention. He took
particular pains to clear up false
hood respecting one portion of the bill
as follows:
There is no change whatever in
the wooden schedule The same old
/ duties remain upon every article, al
though the other day | was shown a
circular from tailoring establish
ment which notified its customers with
great regret that owing to the adj
vance In duties on high-class suitings
by the new tariff it had been compell-
ed to raise its price Is to 20 per cent. :
Mr.. Curtis calls attention TO this as
the same old trick that was used
generally after the enactment Of the
4 MCKINNEY LdTlU do d JltttAI iOi III
creasing prices. There was a general
advance in the cost of living in the
early COS, which was unjustly at
tributed to the Mckinley tariff. al.
though that law was not responsible
, for 5 per cent OF the increase. Mr.
Curtis reports that many importers
( wholesale dealers and manufacturers
: are already taking advantage of the
: Aldrich Law for the same purpose.
Mr.. Curtis observes that it is mo-
n necessary to say that the farmers are

LOCAL OPTION AND AFTER.

In an important article in one of
the leading reviews Mr.. Russell E.
Macnaughten endeavors to show that
the true solution of the temperance
question lies in local option combined
with licensing system of disinterest-
ed management, and that in no case
should the unit of one licensed house
for every thousand of the population
be exceeded Local option should for
this purpose embrace the power of de-
Gliding. by substantial majority. the
simple question of License or no Lii
cense, while a bare majority should
have the further power of reducing
the number of licensed houses and
also reducing the daily period of hours
during which alcohol could be legiti-
mately sold.
Disinterested management as Mr.
Macnaughten would have it would com
bine the principles of a company lin
iting its shareholders profits to pei
1 cent and giving to its employees. in ad
dition to their salary, liberal com
mission on the sale of food and non
| intoxicants. He would abolish the bal
absolutely and so dispose of the sur
plus profits as to remove from thu
municipality or city any motive fol
encouraging the traffic in alcoholi'
liquors. He holds that If genuine pro
4 hibition is ever to be attained it Il
by proceeding on the lines of leas
resistance that such reform can mos
effectively and speedily be accom-
plished.

DR.. G. H. Sumner, the new secre-
tary of the Iowa state board of health,
is fifty-one years Of age and has been
health officer OF Waterloo for over
eight years. Before becoming a
physician ne was a school superintend-
ent in Delaware county. As health
officer of Waterloo he was one Of the
first men in the state TO advocate
milk inspection, also inspection Of
meat. He had much to do with the
framing of the new milk inspection
ordinance in effect at Waterloo, and
it was through his personal efforts
and his acquaintance with Secretary
Wilson of the department OF agricul-
ture that government aid was secured
to inaugurate the new city ordinance
which requires that milk, cream and
buttermilk sold in the city shall come
only from cows subjected to the tn
berculin test. This provision brought
Waterloo to the attention of tbs

ADVICE TO suFFRAGETTEs.

Iowa newspapers are thoroughly
conversant with Iowa sentiment and
peculiarly representative OF it. Al
most without exception they are IN
close touch with their constituents and
voice the opinions of the people OF the
state with noteworthy clearness and
fidelity. When they are practically
all agreed on any given subject their
utterances may be accepted as an ex-
preston of CORRESPONDENCE unani-
nous public opinion on that subject.
They are so agreed that the woman
suffragists will make serious mis-
take if they persist in their announce
ed determination to adopt the tactics
of the English "suffragettes' in their
efforts to secure the ballot for the
women of Iowa. The opinion of Iowa
newspapers and Iowa people general
ly as to this is briefly and forcibly ex-
pressed by the Cedar Rapids Gazette
in the following paragraph:
"One foolish action may nullify the
influence OF a multitude OF sensible
actions. 1t is not improbable that the
Iowa suffragettes, who are going on
the warpath in the effort to secure
equal suffrage, have set back the
cause of equal suffrage an even fifty
years. If anything would decide the
voters of Iowa not to bestow the bal
lots upon women; If anything othef
than the antipathy OF women them
selves to the reform were needed TO
queer the alleged progressive step,
the proposed action of the Iowa sur
fragists would Go it. The women who
are going to start a war ought to re-
convene and resolve that they will do
nothing of the kind.
This is good advice and 1t should
be promptly needed The people OF
Iowa, through their representatives in
the state legislature. stand ready to
grant the ballot to women whenever
they are convinced that majority OF
Iowa women want the ballot. All the
advocates OF woman suffrage have to
| do is to present request TO this
effect supported by proper evidence
that 1t represents the desire of Z
preponderance OF Iowa mothers
| wives, sisters and daughters and the
request will be granted. Not only vii
| it be granted gladly, but the at
firmative answer will be handed
them on silver salyer. Such re
quest would have been granted year
ago had 1t been SO Endorsed. If, o.
