ST. Paul Republican; Legislatures are
like people. They have to be dead before
they are fully known.
Lyons Sun: President Taft's cabinet
doesn't suit our democratic country news
paper brethren. He couldn't have named
one that would, but Bryan could have
satisfied them with Fingy Connors, Roger
Sullivan, Governor Haskell and Jim Dahl
man.
Blue Springs Sentinel: Bryan says this
has been the best session of the state legis-
lature the state has ever had. The editor
knows a lot of prominent democrats over
the state, however, who think otherwise;
In fact, one expressed himself to us the
other day that ut was the durndest bunch
ever got together"
Crete Vidette-Herald Edgar Howard is
never idle. He devotes much Of his time
in elevating into office men of the Ransom.
Howell, Latta brand, and occupies the bai-
ance Of his time in presenting
unrefutable. why these same men should
not have been selected to mIsrepresent the
common people. Yes. he is a busybody.
Beatrice Sun: We must admit, however
reluctantly, that the legislature is spending
a considerable share OF its time in juggling
the laws so that the governor will have
power to appoint officers that have here
tofore been appointed by boards and COM
missions made up of state officers. The
coincident fact that the executive and the
legislature are of the same political faith
may have something ito do with the
changes that are being made.
Syracuse Journal: If there is a demo-
crat in this section who il not disguised
with the present legislature he has not
reported at this office, but the woods are
full of them who have so expressed them
selves. And some of the best men in the
party in this locality have stated that they
have voted their last democratic ticket.
The state is over 20 years old and this is
the first democratic legislature. 1t ought
to be a thousand years before we have
another If this is the best they can do.
Shelton Clipper: As an instance OF
democratic economy is cited the action Of
the legislature the other day in voting an
allowance Of 81. 200 to Chief Clerk Cone for
making up the journal, Two years ago Mr..
Cone was a member Of the house himself
and when the republican Legislature voted
the same amount for the purpose that has
now been voted him he protested against
II on the ground that 1t was extravagant
and excessive and that the work was not
worth near that much. In fact. he offered
TO DO the work for $3.50 or $500. But when
he got to be chief clerk OF the legislature
himself he wanted all that he could get
for the work, and he got just as much as
the republican clerk got. The incident
illustrates that when a democrat gets UT
to the pie counter he is just as greedy as
any republican ever dared to be and he
doesn't care any more for the interests Of
the dear people than he does about a war
in Africa,

The leaders of the anthracite coal
miners are to be congratulated in hav-
ing refused to precipitate a strike at
this time. They have voted to con-
tinue work, pending negotiations for
a readjustrnent OF terms with the mine
operators { take the place Of the
th~ree-year agreement. which expires
on April /. The decision is a victory
for the anthracite workers over the
leaders Of the United Mine Workers
association. who are dominated by the
forces working in the bituminous
mines. where conditions are radically
different from those prevailing in the
anthracite regions.
A readjustment OF the working
agreement should be possible without
serious dificulty II the miners can ad-
vance good reasons for a change. The
mine operators have positively refused
to deal with the miners as members
OF the United Mine Workers associa-
ton, but express a willingness to deal
with unions OF their own men. This
reduces the difference on that point to
a technicality and the miners are wise
in declaring that the recognition OF
their general union is not the most i'm
portant question involved in the con-
t%roversy. The remaining questions
relate entirely to wages. hours and
methods of Weighing. all Of which
should be settled without resort to a
strike.
The proposed appeal by the miners
to President Taft seems to be prema-
ture. The precedent established in
that direction by President Roosevelt
in 1902 was based on conditions which
do not now exist. The country was
then facing a coal famine and the en-
tire country was demanding relief
from the intolerable conditions which
had resulted from a prolonged coal
strike. At the present time the miners
are working under an agreement made
at the instance of the commission APP
pointed by President Roosevelt. Presi-
dent Taft could hardly interfere ex-
cept as a last resort and then only to
appoint another commission to inves-
tigate conditions and perhaps act as
In arbitration board.
II the mine operators should refuse
to deal with such a board there is
as yet no public pressure to influence
them to do so as there was in the 1902
strike. The miners and the operators,
the parties directly interested, should
settle the differences between them
selves.

Don't suffer another moment with a
weak Stomach as relief is waiting.

II what YOU Just ate is sourins on your
stomach or lies like a lump Of lead, re-
fusing TO digest, or YOU belch Gas and
Eructate Sour, undigosted food or have
a feeling OF Dizziness. Heartburn, Full
ness, Nausea, Bad taste in mouth and
Stomach headache-this is Indigestion.
A full case Of Pape's D~iapepsin costs
only 50 cents and will thoroughly cure
the worst case of Dyspepsia, and leave
sufficient about the house in case some
one else in the family may suffer from
Stomach trouble or Indigestion.
Ask your pharmacist to show you the
formula plainly printed on these 90 cent
cases, then you will understand why Dys-
pepsia trouble of all kinds must go, and
why they usually relieve a sour stomach

Des MOineS Under Commission Rule,

One year OF nonpartisan business ad-
mlnistration of municipal affairs in Des
Molnes created a surplus of $40. 900, whereas
a deficit OF $4,000 had accumulated under
the old political regime. II is a simple
matter for any city to discover the tribute
which 1t is paying to partisan politics. Nor
is the financial saving the full measure of
profit in nonpolitical administration. When
responsibility is solely to the people, and
political liability Is eliminated, the public
service is improved. The city of Haverhill,
nearer at hand, is furnishing an example
Of Improvement under business administra-
ton which quite equals that of Des Moines.

II the coming census costs the fourteen
million dollars for which Director North
will ultimately ask. it will be not far from

rising per capita cost, largely because
