pointed for that purpose will present
to the house appropriations committee
a resolution which has been prepared
setting forth in very plain language
the view that the regents of the State
University and the trustees Of the
State Normal college have been guilty
of the violation of law in building at
Iowa City and at Cedar Falls resi-
dences for the presidents of the state
institutions located there. These res
olutions may be changed in commits
tee but they will be passed by the
house and senate substantially as
prepared. They will not be abusive
nor critical but will be very plain SO
| that there can be no question about
posed to the unauthorized use Of state
money in this way.
| The state university has been asked
| to appear before the senate appropria-
tons committee today and discuss the
! contemplated appropriations, or rather
Joe R. Lane. of the board of regents,
has been invited to appear and present
the needs of the University. Members
of the visiting committee complain
that they were not given very much
assistance while at Iowa City in de-
ternining Just what is most needed at
the university and so they have asked
MI LANE 70 appear.
The senate has passed the quaran-
tine bill, but the house will not recog.
nize it when it comes back. The house
| joined in the general acclaim against
things as they are and hit the state
board of health a hard jolt by taking
away from the state all connection
with the care of the health of the
people. The senate has rewritten the
bill and has merely given additional
powers to local boards to guard
against fraud or extravaganza in guar
antine matters leaving the state board
with final authority.
The fremen pension bill passed the
house. II will enable a city having
paid firemen to levy fund to provide
for pensions for disabled and decrepit
firemen or to provide for the families
of firemen.
The house bill to authorize the trial
of man for murder while he is serv-
ing time for a lesser crime, has passed
both houses. The senate tackled on
manslaughter, also, which will probs
ably be accepted by the house

Representative Fred H. Hunter of

mend for passage his bill making Dr.
Thomas ineligible to continue as sec
rotary.
Contrary to all prediction, the com
mittee went the limit in it's crusade
agaisnt Thomas and by a unanimous
vote sent the bill out with a recon-
mendation for it's passage. 1t requires
that the secretary Of the state board

The official scalp of Hon. B. F. Kellz

by the state administration, and fol-
lowing this it will be demanded that
Charles f. Phillips, who has been sec
rotary of the pharmacy board during
the years when it's development into
one of the most profitable bureaus of
the state government, will be deposed.

guaranteed to have not countenanced

paused in his work out in the state.

without number and always in the

avoided, sometimes by agreement and
oftener by appeal to the attorney gen

UNCLE SAM AND THE LITTLE
REVOLUTIONS.

To maintain proper neutrality
concerning the internal broiIs of the
Central American republics has always
been difficult thing for this Govern
ment. Commonly it has been done by
dint of a general assumption that so
long as nobody got hurt a revolution
was rather a harmless diversion. Undue
interference by Uncle Sam could not
fail to excite prejudice throughout
Latin America. and in its iusistence on
neutrality Washington has often stood
so straight as to lean backward.
But the present war in Nicaragua
has taken on the proportions of a
reign of terror Zelaya. long regarded
as the most progressive and sane of
Central American rulers, has developed
into a would-bc Diaz He has under
taken an iron-list policy which Is lead
ing into executions strongly suggestive
of massscres. To stand neutral while
these horrors have been perpetrated
has been all Uncle Sam. could do; when
the point was reached where American
citizens-insurrectos, indeed, but with
the rights of belligerents-have been
shot to death on sentence Of drum
head military courts, patience could not
be stretched farther The result is in
PREVENTION, the dispatch of warships,
the refusal to accept the new Nicara-
guam ministers credentials. or to re
ceive him personally. In all probability
this vigorous action will be followed
by such display of force and determi-
nation as will bring order very present
~ out of the chaos of affairs in that
troubled region.
1t seems inevitable that the United
States will have to establish toward
Central America a relationship similar
to that it now sustains toward Cuba.
There has been quite as much delicacv
and consideration shown toward the
autonomous pretensions of those little
states as is necessary. Humanity and
civilization now dictate an effective
program for establishing and maintain
ing order.

JUSTICE BREWER FAVORS
WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

II there We're any further evidence
needed that woman suffrage has become
a living, practical question in this eoun-
try, evidence would be supplied by the
magazine article on the subject by SC
eminent an official as Associate Justice
David J. Brewer of the Uni ed States
Supreme Court.
Justice Brewer is known as one of
the conservative members of the Su-
preme Court, and when he comes out
fatty and predicts female suffrage will
come, he cannot well be accused either
of unduly radical views or said to be
moved by sentiment.
His utterances as TO woman suffrage
are likely to command wide notice, not
alone in this country but in England,
where the war is on over the suffrage
question.
Undoubtedly Justice Brewer has put
ammunition into the hands of the suf-
fragists in this country which they viii
be quick 10 use For one thing he gives
it as his opinion woman suffrage viii
not debase the home or lessen its
power and influence He asserts that
on the other hand it viii introduce a
refining and uplifting power into our
political life, and that il VII neither
stop marriage nor viii it iead to race
suicide That equal suffrage viii de
base the home and make women less
refined is one Of the most common of
arguments against giving women the
ballot
On another point Justice Brewer pre-
sents interesting testimony. He SAYS
Colorado is the significant State, and
that there woman suffrage has helped
a little, perhaps more than can easily
be particularized" On this point he
takes issue with many opponents of
equal suffrage who say evidence is lack
ing that conditions have been bettered
il States where women have the ballot.
Without entering into the question
of the merits OF faults Of woman suf-
frage, it is easy TO see the time has
come when this question viii have to
be given more general and mature CON
sideration in this country than it has
been given. When men like Justice
Brewer say in effect the question no
longer can be ignored, it is symptomatic
Of broad undercurrent of thought
upon the problem among thinking
people.
It would look as if the time were
not remote when Congress would have
to give suffrage some real consideration.

PARCELS POST ANOMALY AND
EXPRESS DIVIDENDS.

In the main corridor of the Wash
ington city postoffce is hung a big
placard calling attention to the cheap
parcels post rates on merchandise
destined TO foreign countries-only y
cents per pound. The public is re-
minded that unequaled facilities are
afforded by the postal service to send
things abroad at low rates.
But there Is no allusion, in this ad-
vertising matter, to the fact that the
very same parcel which can be sent at
y cents the pound almost anywhere
in the civilized world, must pay 10
cents per poBnd to go by mail from
Washington 20 Baltimore.
Isn't that curious? Why should
such an anomaly be permitted Why
should the Government be proud Of af-
fording cheap parcel service 10 the rest
of the world while it makes the rates
prohibitive at home?
The answer may be found in a news
article in the New York papers today.
The Wells Fargo Express Company's
directors have adopted a plan for dis
tribution of $500 per share dividend
to stockholders. out of the surplus Of
the company.
The fact that the United States re-
fuses 10 give its own people parcels post
privileges that enlightened countries
without exception enjoy, enables such
dividends to be earned by = express
monopoly. The express companies have
taken rank among the most powerful
financial institutions in the nation
They own great investments in rail
roads; they loan millions TO favored
corporations; aud now comes "a $500
dividend by one OF them.
and naturally enough we are remind
