THE pETR0,r WAY.

"A Daniel came to judgment at De-
troit the other day where a judge de-
cided that the father of Margaret
Grandson was within his legal rights
when he spanked his 17-year-o
daughter soundly as a final effort to
keep her away from cheap theaters
and bad company. The girl had her
father arrested for disturbance of the
peace Immediately after he had fin
ished what appears to have been a
very earnest and competent job of the
kind of spanking our mothers used to
do but the judiciary stood by him with
a decision that spanking l7-year-old
daughter who needed it is entirely
within the legal rights and privileges
of a parent.
Had the judge added that this old
fashioned parent was also within the
would have found many to approve
and applaud his statement. Many
worse things than sound spanking
may happen to a girl who defies her
father and insists on keeping low and
dangerous company. In fact as we all
know, worse things do happen as a
rule She is the exception to whom
worse humiliation than spanking af-
fords does not come and stay turnout
her life.
Thousands of men and mothers have
sat in agony which turned their hair
gray to see a 17-yea--old girl go de-
family down the descent, unheedful
alike of command or appeal. This old
man up at Detroit followed the pater-
nal instinct when he refused to ac-
cept the theory that peternal control
ceases at II or while his daughter lives
under his roof and depends upon him
for home. When he went at her in
the old and seripturally approved fash
ion after other modes of suasion had
been exhausted he was not far wrong.
He took a chance as a wise surgeon
does when he turns to desperate
operation If the girl finally goes to the
devil there will come time when she
will wish her father had chained her
at home.
Perhaps had Papa Grandson begun
spanking sooner he and the girl
might have been spared much humilia-
ton. Spanking does so much more
good at than at II.

Guess all you want as to how tho
vote will be today on the Payne tariff
bill, but don't bet too heavily either
way.
1t is significant that the vote in con-
gress on the tariff bill and adjourn
ment of the Iowa legislature occur on
the same day, and Friday at that.
Neither even may prove disastrous,
however.
Pertinent to suggest that it is good
time to get out the King drag, and
use it.
If the new tariff bill should suit ev-
erybody, the very next thing an
nounced would be that the millennium
had arrived.

IowA's CRYING NEED.

| We build with the money of the
state 100000 grand stand on the
state fair grounds for the convenience
of the public and the profit of the fair
asso ciation during the week or ten
/ days that the state fair continues and
refuse highways of the state one-tenth
of that sum. We build additions to our
penitentiaries, erect new insane Iasy-
lums and strengthen our jails. We
have two so-called industrial schools
which are in reality little else but
prisons for youthful offenders. But in
all Iowa there is not a refuge for the
unfortunate and helpless child.

agement TO attain to the best type
of citizenship. There is no state In
stitucion where such child may go
that is not attainted with pauperism
or criminaMty. And this is Iowa's
shame as it is Iowa's crying need.
1t is time We turned from appro-
priations for steel grand stands and
the lavish spending of state revenues
for one thing and another to contem-
plate this need. We appropriate vast
sums for our state colleges that take
the youth who has been given a fair
start and carry him along the high
way to usefulness and attainment but
the neglected child, the baby born into
misery, the young boy and girl left
helpless and defenseless must by rea-
son of beauty or intellect appeal TO

poor house or in one of our 'indus-
trial schools"

the scrapings of the slums Of the river
cities, the little lad whose only crime
is orphanage and poverty must fight
for future citizenship and come out to
renew the fight with the world. bear
ing the stigma of the reform school.
1t is a stigma. ASK yourself if you
would seek reform school graduate
and whether or not he would not be
obliged to win your confidence before
you trusted him. And yet this is prac-
tically the only refuge of 1owa's un-
fortunate children outside what indi-
vidual charity does for them.
1t isn't fair to humanity. 1t Is a
discredir to Iowa. 1t is a crime against
the future and a present shame. Why
do We make good citizenship hard TO
come by? Isn't a waste of children the
worst economy the state can prac-
tice? Wouldn't it be the part of COM

walton, by building home for such
children and save the Improvement

THE REAL QUESTION IN IOWA.


1t may be that the building of office
buildings and annpalitheaters is moro
important than making passable roads
in the state where highways are i'm
passable several months in the year
The subject is worthy OF prayful
thought, however. We all like to look
at nice buildings when We go to Des
Moines and we like to feel reasonably
safe when we watch the horse races
at the state fair. But It would be much
more practical to devise ways and
means whereby products Of the farm
can be transported to the markets
without the use Of six horse teams
This seems to be the real question in
Iowa and some day, not so very far
distant. Iowa will stop building pago-
das and make passable highways.

combinations of lumber dealers to fix

dealers in boards? If the fixing and

not make the grocers and the butchers
