sTockADE the sCHooLnousesq

An Iowa representative, from north.
ern Iowa too, has furnished the head
for the Ounce cap of the general as
sembly. He has a bill-all representa-
tives have bills--he has a bill to sur
round the school houses with barb
wire barbados and imprison the
school children within the stockade.
From the time they enter the gates
until they are released at night he
would make q states prison Of every
schoolhouse on the two-mile cross
roads OF Iowa. Worst OF all he Is SER
ious. he means. II. How he came to
be elected to the assembly from an
ordinarily intelligent district is like one
of Dundreary's connundrums Some
thing no Teller can find out" But he
was elected, and is there with his
"bill.'
OF course he can do no harm; he
can only make us ashamed. The bill
is a laughing stock as Is its origin
{.
ator But it is a sad commentary on
the carelessness of the voters who
are responsible in representative gov
eminent that he should ever have been
permitted to break out. There should
be some way whereby he might be re-
called and the district save its face"
The state is not laughing at the men
who elected him. That is too serious a
matter for fun. 1t is laughing at
the antics of the individual and won-
dering what manner of men selected
him to represent them in the law
making body Of the state.
Perhaps he is one of the defects of
the primary law. Will some one who
knows explain?

1t Is said by those who profess to
know, that Messrs. Smith and Hart

lieves in hanging together, else, for
sooth, they might hang separately, as
runs an ancient precept. Congressman
Smith is offended at the president Of

a GOLDsM ANNIVERSARY.

Yesterday the Waterloo Courier cel-
ebrated its fiftieth anniversary under
THE management of the Hartmans the
elder, of whom launched the paper half
a century ago, when he was 81, and
long before Waterloo or the state OF
Iowa had attained its majority. Will
lam H. Hartman, who ran the first IS
sue Of his newspaper venture on a hand
press in the January of 1859, died four
teen years ago. It has been carried on
by his son John C. and well managed,
edited with pluck and brains, and with
idealism. The handpress long ago wen!
the way OF the Washington presses,
and is probably doing pioneer work
for some other enterprising youth of
21 who Is Launching" his newspaper
venture in a tent on a new town site.
The Courier has kept pace with the
march OF Iowa progress. 1t is all said
when so much has been said.
Fifty years is the limit of a life, 1t
more than spans the limit of activity.
There are few men actively engaged
an any business who were contempor-
airy with the founder OF the Courier.
Perhaps the only newspaper man left
in harness who has been busy with
his task since 1859 Is George D. Per-

the SECRET OF THAT RICH OLD JONES'

| 1t is often asked why II cattle feei-
sistent every year feeders buy one farm,
after another and occupy the station of
the biggest and most successful farm
ers In the community" Still other men
have tried it ON and failed to make
money. On the contrary have come
| back from market with light pockets
and heavy hearts.
| Why do some men get rich and 9th
! ers stay poor? 1t Is the same old ques-
ton over again. Aside from speculation
and Inheritance there Is only one eX-
| PLANTATION, hard work, common sense
and most of all carefulness and econo-
my. Some men make cattle pay be-
cause they feed cattle and do not de-
pend on the cattle feeding themselves.
The difference in methods, care and
sense displayed is precisely the Diff
ference displayed in the selection Of
seed corn, the test Of its fertility and
in the planting tending" and prepara-
ton of the seed bed. The difference be-
tween success and failure Is the diff
ference in men. 1t shows as much in
the feed yard as in the corn field. The
man and his methods are the reasons
why some farmers grow richer and
some grow poorer
Same with the dairy man. He keeps
cows Of one sort and another. One man
keeps any COW with four teats and the
other watches. tests, and selects the
best, dumping the outcasts over on the
dairyman to whom COW is a COW and
one goes broke in the dairy business
and another builds big red barns FOR
his herds and buys big red automobiles
for himself.
It's the reason why one man raises
potatoes and another doesn't; why one
man has a silo and the other doesn't;
why one man breeds to the very best
sires whether they are handy by" or
many miles away and sells the '5-year-
old team for $500 when his neighbor
has hard work to get bid of half the
money for his carelessly bred and
reared animals. 1t is the reason why
a colt dies of wire cut in one pasture
and grows into money In another.
Briefly, it is the difference between the
man who studies to make the most Of
himself and his work and the man who
is willing to drift
Say, you boy on the farm! Look this
up. Watch the old fellow that turns
all he touches into something fit to sell
for good price. Track him as you
would track a rabbit. The secret Of
his barns and houses and bank account

them. lies along his trail open for all
to read. Search for old Jones secret.
1t Is easy to find.

Roosevelt came as a shock to such
conditions. He is instinctively an
honest man. He is a Halter of shams
with a contempt for all manner of
prostitution of the public service. The
gentle Mckinley was no less honest IN
his personal life and no less DESTROYS
of purity in the public service but he
was not by nature fighter and he
was not looking for that line of
warfare in which his successor glories.
The Roosevelt nerve is superb. When
there is something to fight about he
would just a little rather fight than
not. He has hide so thick as to defy
the sings of disappointed fury and the
arrows of baffled rage. Like some Of
old, he came not to bring peace as q
distinctively prevailing condition. In
making graft odious he has been put

talk of changing our railway commits

to five, giving them power to control

the railroads, is still more in favor
among a considerable number of Iowa
citizens. These have an impress

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

In great part we think that stand
patters will assent to the views of
Governor Garst, and that progressives
are very well satisfied with the atti-
tude of Governor Carroll" says the Ne
vada Representative. From our own
point of view, we should say that they
are two of the very best informed men
in the state concerning state affairs
and that their concurrent judgment
upon any matter, concerning which
they may agree can be accepted by
the general assembly and the state with
great confidence. If there are any mat
ters concerning which they do not APP
pear to agree, the state should give
real consideration to the sentiment Of
each. Really things look pretty we'll at

DAMAGE SUITS.

IHard1n County Citizen.
One of the things with which towns
are pestered is the ever recurring dam
age suit. Somebody gets hurt, some-
how, someway.
And then comes the pestiferous, con-
temptible. unprincipled lawyer who
seeks cut the party, tells him he has a
case, offers to finance 1t and carry it
thru court, in consideration of which
he Is to receive third or half of
the amount. There are cases with
merit where the party is entitled to re-
covery but to every one with merit
there are three without it, built by the
greed of the lawyer and based on graft
which is another word for stealing I'M
der form Of law.
Year after year this rotten grind of
damage suits manufactured by lawyers
goes OH. There Is need of a new code
of morals for the legal fraternity or
the enforcement of such a code as now
exists. BY this we do not mean that
the legal fraternity as fraternity is
subject to censure but there are enough
of the INSCRIPTIONS to throw more or
less odium on the profession.
A lawyer ought not to take damage

that it possesses merit, much less
should he trump them UP on a per-
centage basis.
However the lawyers are not entire
ly to blame. Part of the trouble is up
to the public. So long as the general
public will employ interruptions legal
scoundrels because they will make
case regardless of methods of right and
without scruple, so long will there be
interruptions lawyers in the practice.
and the taxpayer can pay the price Of
manufactured and trumpet up damage
suits. There is need of the raising of
the code of public morals.
