IOWA Anp MANUFACTURING.

~ W. AMI WNtN0C ~ y - tNssS -
The Iowa Manufacturers Associa-
tion In recent address makes some
interesting comparisons not wholly
complimentary to the state. Here are
some Of them:
THE population Of Iowa decreased
over IS, 900 between the year 1900 and
1906. Not only are our people going
away with their capital, but our young
men are going away for employment.
There are 500 factories in Iowa,
using over $4,000 capital each. They
employ $4,000 people and turn out
annually products worth $1S0,00O,O 900. \
Illinois, with the same area as
Iowa has over 5000 factories which
use over $4,000 capital each. Thay
employed 100000 people and turned
out over $1,000, 100000 worth OF pro-
ducts in 1905"
The question is pertinently asked II
Illinois position on the lake Is sum-
cient reason for her leading us 10 to
i. Also, If with 1000 miles of water
transportation easily made accessible
to thrifty cities, Iowa is not as fortu-
rately situated as any interior state.
Furthermore:
+ Are we not as near to iron, timber.
wool, leather, grain and meat animals
as Illinois isy
Are there any other conditions
such as labor supply. national legts-
lation or state legislation, which pre-
vents us from holding production cost
down so that we can save ourselves a
living, progressing margin Of profit In
the worlds market 2"
These are questions worthy Of care
full consideration, and we bespeak for
them the attention they deserve.
There is no good reason why Iowa
should not occupy place in the front
rank Of manufacturing states. Its re-
sources and facilities are second to
none in the central west. All it lacks
is the determination to bring the fac
tory and the farm into close juxtaposi-
tion to the advantage of both In
stead of being squandered on worth
less western mines or poured into rat
holes in Texas, Iowa capital should
be invested in manufacturing enter
prises at home. More than anything
else Iowa needs at the present time
Industrial expansion. II our people
will address themselves to the matter
seriously it will not be many years I'M
til the state is one ct tho most popu-
lous and prosperous in the Union.
With the factories in operation that
should be in operation capital will
have profitable investment, our young
men will find opportunity and paying
employment at home, our merchants
will have more customers with ready
money, ant our farmers will enjoy the
benefits Of q home market that will
double the velue of their farms. The
factory movement should receive the
earnest support Of all classes of citi
zens.

ANOTHER TERM FOR CARROLL

ANOTHER TERM FOX CAHROlI.
The Gate City is in full accord with
the Dubuque Times-J Journal that it is
idle talk of Governor Carroll as a
candidate for the Dolliver succession
in 1912. or OF Attorney General Byers,
Senator Durham, Lieutenant Cover
nor Clark, Carl Kuehnle. or anybody
else, as candidate for the governor s
place next year Party custom and
party welfare demand the governors
denomination. The Times-J ournal
goes on to say:
1The party can not repudiate him
aad outside the ranks of the grafters
and their sympathizers there is no de-
sire to repudiate him. He is diCcharg-
ing the duties of his Office with fidelity
and intelligence and is demonstrating
that the executive Office can be cap.
ably and efficiently administered with.
out the aid of press bureau. He has
pleased the state by the Indifference
he has shown towards the newspaper
correspondents who would fawn upon
him if given any encouragement, but
who. having been neglected by the
governor, have used the Populist
Democrats and independent press oil
the state to misrepresent his actions
and his motives"
This is well said and every word is
true. Governor Carroll has shown
himself to be capable and worthy and
he is entitled to another term By
every consideration Of precedent, fair
ness and party interest The proper
thing to do would be to renominats
him by unanimous vote This would
be no more that he deserves and nj
more than would be accorded him Il
/ the convention plan we're still fl
vogue.
