FOOTBALL AT SCRANTON.

PA" Smith and the town Of Scranton
have had a football game in their midst
Il was exciting TO the limit but COM
ment IS unfavorable. The Journal says
the people Of Scranton will look with
disfavor upon the game for sometime 70
come
There was rudeness manifested in
the progress of the game, by visiting
players and rooters. Indeed much that
seemed coarse and outside the ordin-
airy limits Of etiquette seems to have
taken place. Seven visitors smoked
cigarettes and one advanced and
shameless follower of the game an
nounced openly that he and his were
tough nuts from Bitter Creek and
hard to crack" The visitors leaped
boisterously on Scranton player who
was gaining ground in a fashion very
satisfactory to Scranton on!ookers,
threw him rudely to the hard earth,
piled on him as he lay PROSTATE on the
ground with the evident purpose to
take away and secure the ball for pur-
poses of their own. There was slug
ging, hints of nose bleed and suspicion
of bruises. While the result is not
| given by the journal somewhat about
the comment gives rise to the suspic-
ion that the rude players from Boone
won tho game.
'@vice is monster of such frightfuI
mien," etc. The impression OF the or
binary first observer Of football game
is that it is brutally rough. SO is th<
last impression. 1t is. 1t is as rough

trying to make a reputation at the ex-
pense Of John Cownie. A few doctors,
connected with the state board of
health are reviiing him as q farmer"
but we would trust, the average farmer
as far as we would any other man, and
little further. Some newspapers are
never satisfied unless they set up some
one as a bogy man and then COM
mence to pound away at him. In Iowa
they are, trying to make a sort of Joe
Cannon out of Cownie-something to
abuse, to pound at and some man of
whom they can say all manner of mean
and unwarranted things. But public
servant of such service as he has rem
dered is worthy Of better treatment. A
protest ought to be entered against
such a campaign and we want to enter
it. We have known John Cownie for
twenty years, and they have all been
good years.

SUNG ON The CHANCE

A weekly Iowa newspaper announces
that one of the residents of its town
will sue a prominent and hotheaded
baseball manager for damages. This
respected resident was in the grand
stand at a ball game engaged in the
pleasant American pastime of roofing.
He appears 10 have been ION to his
job for he SO enraged the manager
of one of the teams that he climbed
up into the grandstand and slapped
the vociferous rooter or the roofing in
strunlent. Hence the suit.
This is one Of the kind of suits that
do not find favor in the eyes of courts
or the public. There are too many,
vastly too many such suits brought in
vindictiveness or in the hope of get
ting something" The manager in ques-
ton is cholerlc and scrappy person
but the roofing" must have been
enthused him that he would climb a
grandstand for a swipe at the rooter
Had the rooter Tanned the manager
within an inch of his life he would
have been laughed out of countenance
had he even laid information OF assault
ad battery. The manager deserved fin
ing III justice court. There is no &C.
casion to occupy the time Of district
court with a case of this nature.
Too many persons seem to be looking
for opportunity to make mountains o.
litigation out of molehills Of offence
The courts are full of it It is time ths
public laughed this sort of thing on
Of existence. The insistence Of some
one who has had his mouth slapped
that his feelings have been injured tt
the extent of several thousands in IN
operation. isn't worth much judicia
attention.

office boy would say. Mr. Cannon
came over into Iowa 10 show Us where

long for the sensation with verbal
castigation OF the overwhelming politi-
cal sentiment OF Iowa and the men who
represent that sentiment Along with
this Bit OF service which was much in
the nature Of changing work" with
those whose subservience to himself
and his principals had entitled them
TO days work in harvest, Mr. Cam
non came 10 offer a special and speci-
Gus plea that the protective tariff
principle is IN deadly danger and that
he and his ilk stand between an estab-
lished principle and free trade; and 10
reiterate that the Cannon rulings and
the Cannon rules are the palladium of
American liberties. Outside OF the as
| sertions for himself and his clique and
the casdgatory process Mr.. Cannon
didn't do or say much. And what he
/ did do and say will have about the
same effect upon the political situation
/ in Iowa and the Seventh district Of
/ Iowa as tho he had stayed in Dan
/ vile and stormed profanely al home.
The question of where Iowa stands on
the principle of protection is well and
4 clearly defined. Her attitude as re-
CARDS proper revision under that ac-
/ cepted principle is as clearly made
/ definite. Her confidence in her repre-
/ sentatives is born Of complete ac-
ouaintance with the men and when the

datory interests come into the state 10

are not likely to bear dance when Can
non lifts his hand and the raucous pro-
family of his voice.
Careful reading of Cannons speech
will not create any impression Of q
great speech or a strong argument. 1,
was simply Joe Cannon, sufficiently
! notorious to induce large number Of
persons 10 come and look from opera
chairs at him and Incidentally to listen

other speaker Of ordinary repute have

IOWA OPINIONS and NOTES.

The Sioux City Tribune points out
hat The present Iowa delegation IN
congress win find in the history OF the
delegation a chart to-guide their course
upon the sea that ship subsidy cham
pions would now have them explore.
In all the years since men doing busi-
ness upon the sea have wanted the
men doing business upon the land to
make up a purse for them, the Iowa
delegation in congress never voted to
compel their constituents to make the
contribution asked for. and only two
years ago the delegation, still under
the control Of Senator Allison, marked
out course for itself as a delegation.
If any Iowan in congress or out. now
wants the delegation to go beyond
where that conference blazed the way,
! it will be well to study the motives
and character OF the proposer."

THEY FIX THE ROADS.
IRode Ruple.1


We understand that the supervisors
Of Kossuth county have offered to set
tie with Henry Thilges for $4,000 for
damages and injuries received in fall
ing thru the O'Rourke bridge. and
see by the Humboldt papers that a
move is being made down. there to have
the roads about town fixed up and the
dangerous places removed. These ac-
tions remind US a good deal of Lock-
ing the stable after the horse is stol-
en-" There is not enough attention
paid to the road lay, or any other law,
for that matter and In these cases, as
in thousands of others, it takes a real
catastrophe to awaken people to their
sense OF duty. The Humboldt accident
caused the actual loss OF two lives and
it is said Thilges is in serious con-
dition. No amount of money can make
these things right and while the look
ing after the causes at this time will
prevent any future trouble, perhaps, it
does not do away with the thought that
the road law is and always has been
neglected.

A BIAS THE BONUS.

Huntington Hawkeye.J
In many of the counties Of Iowa and
neighboring states it has long been
customary to pay bonnties upon ell
sorts of animals that cause damage
to the farmer. Wolves scalps. rat
tlesnakes, gophers. etc. have been
paid for out OF the public funds
And instead Of diminishing the pests
the bounty seems rather to have had
the opposite effect. There seems 10
be vast army of hunters in Iowa
In the various counties between
800 and 500 persons have taken ou;
shooters licenses, and of course, where
one man takes out a license there wil
be another and perhaps two who
will shoot without the license. Sc
that there must be more than 100,-
600 hunters in the state And still we
find that the county auditors are an.
nually paying considerable sums fol

yield would have broken all records. As
it is, the crop will be well above the
