Welt was not real reformer, but only
an agitator. According to the Sioux
City observations, Rooseyelts atti-
tude has not been changed. Roose-
velt did not speak a kind word for
either Cummins or La Toilette, but
spoke many for Do'liver and In Ne
braska he spoke similar kind words
for the regular, Senator Burkett.
The Journal is also of the opinion
that the visit of Roosevelt to the west
has started a sort of boom for Dolli-
YER either for President or vice presi-
dent. 1t is intimated that il Roose-
welt himself should be the candidate
for President he would want such a
man as Dolliver for vice president,
This seems to be also the eastern
view. Whatever truth there may be
in such speculations, the matter will
naturally result in some prestige for
the Fort Dodge senator IN Nebraska,
in the wake of Roosevelt, they start
ed a movement for Dolliver for Pres
ident.
For the time being the senior sen.
ator seems to be more in the public
eye than the junior senator. The
visit of Roosevelt cast it's effulgence
on Dolliver and something of an
eclipse effect on Cummins.

Flies AToMosllEs. FlLTH.

In the opinion of DR.. Wade H. Frost,
assistant surgeon-general of the Unit
ed States, these are the factors
which cause infantile paralysis. He
has been in Iowa and South Dakota
for some time investigating an cpl
demic of the disease and is convinced
that the automobile has more to do
with distributing disease germs than
is generally known. ut moves rapid
w. he is quoted as saying, and the
wheels have a tendency to lift the
dust more than any other vehicle.
Its rapid motion stirs up countless
whirls of dirt. In dry season we
have found that nothing will cause
more trouble from dust than these
machines. The dust is laden with
disease. germs Flies also do much
in carrying the germs of infantile
paralysis
DR.. Frost advocates rigid quaran-
tine for each case Iowa cannot COM
pei this, however. as a recent law
takes the power of quarantine for most
diseases away from the state, nor is
there cent of public money available
for such use. DR.. FROST condc red
this feature of the law and urged that
1t be changed at once. He asked
that in the meantime public subscrip.
tons be raised to bear the expenses
OF quarantine and fumigation.

SCHOOL DISCIPLINE

1t happened in Missouri. Reuben
cursed a school mate The school
master switched Reuben. Reuben
cursed the schoolmaster, and he was
cruelty switched. An irate father and
boy brother violently assaulted the
schoolmaster; left him in dazed con-
dition with several deep gaskes in his
head. The schoolmaster received a
verdict of $4,000 actual and $500
punitive damages, but it was reduced
to $1,000 by remittitur. The court
OF appeals of that state in its decision
held that a teacher may discipline
his pupils by personal chastisement in
a reasonable and moderate manner;
but that if he goes beyond this, and
Furnishes pupil in cruel manner,
and the parent, being melted thereto,
should assault the teacher, such pun
lshment while not justifying the as
sault, may be shown in evidence in nit
igation of damages. In the opinion of
the court the verdict was sustained
by a preponderance of the testimony,
showing an aggravated assault, per-
petrated by two against one, and that
without justifable cause.

CENSUS RETURNS TO DATE.


The Census Bureau has, up to this
date, announced the population of
twenty-five cities having population
of over 100000 inhabitants each. All
but seven of these cities made
greater absolute increase of popula-
ton in the decade of 1900 to 1910
than in the preceding decade, 1890 to
1900. The seven exceptions comprise
Buffalo, Grand Rapids, New Haven.
Patterson, Pittsburg, ST. Louis and
Toledo. In the case of twelve cities
the percentage of Increase as we'll as
the absolute increase was greater be-
tween 1900 and 1910 than between
1890 and 1900. The population of New
York City is 4,766,833 in 1910, as COM
pared with 3,437 200 in 1900, and a
population for the same area of o.
507,414 in 1890 This represents an
absolute increase of 1,329,681 from
1900 to 1910, and 929 1888 from 1890
TO 1900. The percentage of increase
was 1871 for the last decade and 371
for the earlier, a slightly accelerated
rate of increase. The most striking
acceleration in growth perhaps is that
shown for Atlanta, Ga, which in
creased 1878 per cent in the last dec
ade as against an increase of Bill per
cent between 1890 ana 1900. The for
mer is the highest percentage shown
in any of the cities of over 100000
thus far announced. Hardly less re-
markable is the case of Detroit, Mich,
which increased 60 per cent in the
last decade as against 38.S per cent in
the decade between 1890 and 1900.
Denver increased 59.4 per cent in the
/ decade ending in 1910 as against %.
/ per cent for that ending in 1900;
/ Kansas City, Mo-, increased 5t.7 per
cent as against 234; Newark, n. j.,
Az per cent as against 1873 and st.
Paul, MINI, 317 per cent as against
i 225.
/ In the aggregate the announced
population of these twenty-five cities
is 11.o42.5o0. In 1900 they had an ag.
gregate population OF S,273,482, in
1890, 6,213,5S3. This represents an in.
\ crease of 2,O59, 899 between 1890 and
1900 and of 2,769,o18 between 1900
and 1910. The percentages of in.
crease for these cities, taken in the
aggregate, show very little change in
the rate of growth, the percentage
from 1890 to 1900 being 1872, and
from 1900 to 1910, 335. For the TWEEN
ty-four cities exclusive of New York
City, the corresponding percentage OF

The total number of cities that had
a population OF over 100000 at the

FACTS ABOUT IOWA.

Here are some facts about Iowa it
would be well to have in mind when
tempted to complain of conditions or
to locate elsewhere:
The per capita wealth of Iowa is
s1,S2S; that of the whole United
States is only s1,31S.
The farms of Iowa last year pro-
duced 1921 100000. The farm lands
and buildings are worth more than
those of New Jersey, Vermont. Con
necticut, Kansas, Colorado and Ore
gon all together.
Iowa owns one-tweltth of the farm
machinery and wagons of the whole
country
The corn crop of Iowa would buy
the entire mineral production of Mex
leo. The poultry and eggs are worth
more than the entire gold and silver
output of Colorado

story of rich pastures, nowhere is
the blue grass and clover deeper
than in Iowa's fields, with their
clear springs and running streams
If Iowa farmers feel that they have
reached the limit of money making
on Iowa land, let them take to inten-
SIZED farming methods and they
will make the soil produce dollars
where they have made it produce
only cents before. The money is in
the soil, more plentiful here than
anywhere else; it is up to them to
get it out.

Good Bye BURROWS.

] Des Moines Capital: Senator Julius
Caesar Burrows of Michigan fell out.
side the breastworks yesterday at
the statewide primary.
Burrows served eighteen years in
the house and has been fifteen years
in the senate. He has therefore been
in congress thirty-three years.
Burrows is old and poor Fortunate
ly he was in the union army and can
draw a pension. which will help some.
Burrows specially has been the
doctrine of protection. He is what
might be called an old-time Republi-
can. Men of his class are passing
away. The country has no use for
them in their old age The party has
no use for them. The public wants
new men. AT the Republican primar-
les the Democrats, Populists, Social
lists and all other kinds vote and
they always vote against the man
who has been Republican the long
est time. They want new convert,
If they can get him.
Everybody has been slaughtered
now except Tawney and Uncle Joe
Cannon. Tawney will undoubtedly be
defeated at the primary and we are
amazed that somebody does not run
against Uncle Joe Cannon The peo-
pie want to see new faces in office.
Dolliver had better take the hint.
He has been in congress more than
twenty years. Some Of these days the
people will shout times UP" to Dol
liver.
How much happier Burrows would
have been had he gone to making
chairs and tables at Grand Rapids or
casting stoves at Kalamazoo.
1t would have been better for him
to have had sanitarium at Battle
Creek. When an old politician begins
to take an invoice he has reason to
ask, rs it worth while to engage in
the game?"
Townsend, who defeated Burrows, is
one of the members of the house from
Michigan and is reputed to be regu-
lar in Washington and an insurgent
in Michigan. If he has been able to
pull off such a performance, he will
undoubtedly make a good senator
The people will remember the Esch-
Townsend railroad bill.
These two Michigan men wouldn't
stand for the Hepburn bill because
they had railroad bills of their own.
To insure their support, Hepburn's
committee had to adopt the Esch-
Townsend bill and name it after the
two men from Michigan. Whenever
statesman begins to insist that he
will not support measure unless it
bears his name. the thoughtful voter
can take his measure. But in this in
tense age, in this age when there is
such craze for publicity, the states
man knows that he must have his
name attached to bills or the dear
public will never think or know that
he has been in congress.
twenty-five years ago julius Caesar
Burrows was the favorite stumper in
Iowa for the Republican party When
populism was rank, and every I'M
reasonable thing threatened, Burrows
was positive force in good old Iowa.
We shall remember him with kindness
and shall drop a tear upon his politi-
cal grave

Secretary Wilson's Views.

I'VE cannot afford to buy food from
foreign countries said Secretary
Wilson I'VE must see to it that our
western farms produce enough. 1t
costs more to get anything done in
our country than in most others. Pro
duction does not increase as fast as
population. The farmer gets big prices
now, but it costs twice as much to
grow things now as it did before.
Most of our people in the east are
being fed from the Mississippi valley
For the last half century the young
people from the farms have been edu-
Gated to leave them. Ignorance has
permitted the soil to become unpro-
ductive, and the highest intelligence is
required to bring back fertility. Gener-
ally speaking, our farms are managed
with too little capital, or the farm is
too large for the means of the opera
tor.
The cheap food of the past has been
one of the great advantages the man
ufacturer has had He has it no longer.
Neglect of the soil will soon impress
itself on all classes. If the America
we know today is to continue, we
must look to the soil and It's power of
production. Other nations prosper by
commerce and manufacturing, but
their working people are not as com
Portable as ours. Every state should
organize to preserve the utility of the
soil"
