Republican, for governor and the re-
nomination Of most of the regular
candidates for congress are the &C.
CASTOR not only OF surprise but OF the
utmost qualification to the regular Re-
publicans in Washington. It had been
supposed in Washington that Iowa
was the stronghold of the insurgent
movement, and reversal of the Cum
Minis Dolliver ticket there will, it is be-
lieved break the backbone OF insurg-
ency. Private advices received by the
regulars throughout the day nave IN
Dictated the nomination of the regular
candidate for governor, but when the
news was received this evening that
"The Register and Leader" OF Des
Moines conceded CAROLS nomination
even the insurgents gave up all nope.
During the course of the day many
condolences were extended to Senator
Dolliver by his colleagues, who per-
sisted in reminding him that had ne
stood by the administration and op-
posed Cummins he would have been
in the light Of yesterdays develop
ments in Iowa, the greatest man III
the state, instead of the lieutenant OF
Cummins in defeated army. Colonel
William P. Hepburn has all along IN
sisted that once the Republicans mao
an opportunity to express themselves
squarely on the tariff they would be
found to be as staunch protection1sts
as the Republicans Of Pennsylvania,
and developments appear to have con
flrmed the predictions of the colonel.
The denomination of Judge Smith IS
also the occasion of rejoicing among
the regulars, and by the same token 1t
is a bitter disappointment to the : IN
surgents. Judge Smith has been going
about the state declaring that Cum
minis would go down in history as
"the greatest animal trainer the world
has ever known" 1.-TWO years ago,
says Judge Smith, "Dolliver was De.
nouncing Cummins as a traitor ana
biting pieces out OF Garst's legs. With
in that short period Cummins has
trained the Iowa senator to eat out OF
his hands and has taught him to heel
to Garst." Some of Mr.. Delivers
colleagues have taken a cruel pleas
ure in reading this excerpt from Judge
Smiths speeches to the discounted
Iowan today.

gathering goes ahead and does what

gathering goes ahead and does what
it intended to do in the first place.
Senator Dolliver said that he had
been serving the people for Twenty-Five
years. In that statement he is correct,
but he should not overlook the fact
that the people have paid him his
salary right along during that time.
It is really tiresome to hear man III
public office continuously harp1ng
about how he is Serving the people"
He is, but he wants the job and IS
getting paid for it. He is hired by the
people to do certain work and 1t Is up
to him to earn the money the people
pay him, just the same as 1T Is the
duty of the man in the shop, factory
or Office to earn the money his en-
ployer is paying him on pay day. This
thing of a man, just as soon as ne
gets elected to some legislative office,
trying to make believe that ne
is slowly dying the death OF
martyr for the dear peepul" Is ais
gushing. He simply has job and is
being paid for his work. That feature
Of his employment is on the sam"
basis as that of the clerk, bookkeeper,
farmland, factory or office employe'
It will be great relief If the poll
ticians will please dispense with the
Serving the people, talk.

BIASED POLITICAL REPORTS.

Many of the Iowa papers are object
ing to the political reports sent out
from Des Moines by the Associated
Press. The morning papers served by
the Associated Press stated the morn
ing after the last primary election that
Garst had been nominated, as was
claimed at that hour by the Des
Moines Register and Leader, the Des
Moines News and the Garst head
quarters, although the Des Moines
Capital had returns that indicated
clearly the denomination Of Governor
Carroll, and the Carroll headquarters
unwaveringly claimed the governor
was renominated. Answering these
criticisms the Register and Leader
absolves the Des Moines correspond
ents from blame and states that the
Associated Press was served by an ex-
perienced correspondent sent from the
Chicago office, who, "had advices from
Associated Press men the state over"
The Courier Is not informed as to the
rest of the state, but no request was
made by this correspondent for news
of the returns in Wapello county from
the Ottumwa Associated Press cores
pondent. The complaint against the
news sent out from Des Moines. how
ever, does not rest alone on primary
election reports, for it is recognized
that the returns were slow and It was
difficult to reach an accurate conclu-
sion as to the amount Of the Carroll
majority until more complete returns
had been received. But the obje ction
is made that unfairness was shown
during the entire primary campaign.
The Burlington Hawk-Eye publishes
a Des Moines dispatch calling atten-
ton to this. The Hawk-Eye says:
There is feeling here among regu-
lar Republican leaders that the politi-
cal news service furnished to outside
papers by the correspondent Of the
Associated Press was unfair and made
ouate. Throughout the campaign for
the primary the Associated Press COW
cred only the part taken In the cam
paign by Senators Cummins and Dol
liver. When the Iowa Taft club was
organized with nearly 400 politicians
from all over Iowa gathered here to
indorse Taft, the Associated Press was
given nothing about it, but when Cum
Minis came into the state to fight Taft
forces he was given much space. No
attention was paid to the speeches OF
Judge Smith, although he is recogniz-
ed as strong possibility for speaker.
and less was paid to Gov. Carroll's

RULES FOR THE FOURTH.

Chief of Police Yeager and City Phy-
stefan Sayler of Des Moines nave pre-
pared a set of commandments govern
ing the celebration of the Fourth ny
the Des Moines boys and girls, and
they have also some advice foe par
ents that might be followed with good
results after the casualties happen
Here are the ten commandments:
First-Don't shoot noise-makers I'M
til the fourth.
second-Don't try to fire an expio-
sive machine until somebody who I'M.
derstands it shows you how tc 80 II
safely. 49,
Third-Parents should not kick
about firecrackers, but should side
with the kids and pay some attention
to what they are doing, taking care
that they conform to law and safety.
Fourth-Don't try to brighten any
body by firing explosives close 70
them. It is not funny if you accidental
ly hurt them.
Fifth-Don't try to be smart by hold
ing firecrackers in your hands Wnlie
they explode. Hundreds Of people nave
lost arms. eyes and some OF them thelr
lives in this way.
SiXth-When you or one ol youi
gets hurt, don't let some old fogy tell
YOU he never bothered with doctor
when he was kid, but call your lam
lily physician at once. Many deaths
occur from the most trivial injuries
from firecrackers, etc.
Seventh-Don't be too stingy to nave
YOU family doctor use little anti-te-
tanic serum. 1t is very expensive, but
will prevent lockjaw if properly used
in most cases. The time to use 1t is
when the wound is dressed; not after
lockjaw has appeared.
Eighth-Dont tie flrecrackers ana
things to dogs and cats. 1t Is no fun
for them, and it is poor way to cele-
brate the liberty we all enjoy. Besides,
they might run under a house and set
it on fire.
Ninth-Don't be too grouchy with
the kids. Buy them a few sensible
crackers and grow young yourself by
helping them celebrate.
Tenth-Get flag and nall 1t owe.
your door. Tell the kids patriotic stor
les and explain to them what the cele-
bration is all about.
No matter how much talk there IS
Of a "Sane Fourth the kids Will get
in their work on July 4. and advice OF
this kind to the youngsters and their
parents may bring good results.

campaign except to belittle it with

campaign except to belittle it with
larger reference to the opposition.
There are two cases where the Asso.
ciated Press made exceptions to this
rule. One was in Carrolrs opening
campaign speech in which the Asso.
ciated Press pictured him as angrily
assailing the Iowa senators. Anyone
who knows Carroll knows he does not
get angry when he speaks but deliv.
ers himself In q calm and forceful
manner, making his points go home
with telling emphasis. The second ex'
ception was report. of Judge Smith
closing speech, when he was repre-.
sented as showing great anger against
his opponent and growing red In the
face In denouncing them" The fact is
that Judge Smith made fine political
talks, eloquent and convincing, and
gave his opponents some straight shot
without getting unduly excited
about it.
The Associated Press correspondent
also sent out repeatedly the statement
that If the "stalwarts" gained control
Of the convention they would adopt
resolutions condemning Cummins and
Dolliver. This was emphatically denied
but was repeated until some one In
formed the Associated Press It was
being used" by the progresslves.
The reports of returns were entirely
biased, and the impression gained
throughout the country that the In
surgents had gained a great victory IN
Iowa was largely due to the unfair es-
Inmates sent out by the Associated
Press correspondent at Des Moines.
Another complaint is registered by
the Hawk-Eye today against the report
sent out by the Associated Press to to-
days morning papers relative to the
meeting of the state central commit
tee at Des Moines yesterday The AS
ISOLATED Press report said:
Des Moines, Ia, June Ex-senator
Cummins was today chosen temporary
chairman of the Iowa state republican
convention to be held here August 3,
over Charles Grilk Of Davenport, tho
new nominee for congress IN the Sec
ond Iowa district Republican primar-
les The insurgents control the con.
vention with seven to three stalwarts.
The eighth district committeeman. H.
D. Copeland, died recently.
There was slight contest between
the friends OF Senator Cummins and
erik, also an insurgent. The insur-
gents have full control Of the COM
mittee.
The statement that the insurgents
| fully control the committee, says the
Hawk-Eye, is given emphasis by the
correspondent in order to make this
impression strong in the minds Of the
people outside of the state. The fact is,
however. the Hawk-Eye continues,
that the committee has been in the
hands of the insurgents for some time
but was lost by them In the June pri-
maries, the regular republicans gain
ing control of the committee by cap
turing the majority of the districts
which will choose the successors OF
the present committee members.
The Associated Press should not
permit itself to be used for political
purposes by any political faction AMI
it would not permit it if it were fully
advised The Associated Press dis
/ patches are usually models of unbiased

poLLIvER DISPLAYS TEMPER:

:
Senator Dolliver's speech in the
senate this week, did not add any to
the dignity Of that body or 10 the
senator's reputation. 1t was not the
logical and studied effort that is 10 De
expected from United States senator.
It was more the utterances of a man
who is angry
The man who lets his temper dictate
his words is not the man one turns
to for advice or counsel on matters OF
Importance. 1t is not a good or SEN
sible plan for a man to let his temper
run away with his judgment In con-
yentions, committee meetings, some
times in social gatherings, some man
gets mad and storms around, until
finally some friend takes him by the
arm and leads him away to do little
thinking instead of talking. There is
a great difference in the amount OF
good accomplished by men who talk
and men who think.
It makes very little difference where
1t happens, the man who gets mad,
generally regrets 1t. The higher posi-
ton the man who let's his temper get
the best OF him holds, the more sorry
spectacle he makes.
Senator Dolliver stormed and shout
ed and said he is going to fight, fight,
fight There is some difference be-
tween fighting and talking.
His speech was SO full OF animus
that the fury of 1t killed the force OF
his argument. 1t would have been
much more effective If he had in a
plain and dignified manner, pointed out
specific features that he considers
wrong. It does not help him when
he rants. and shouts, and says people
are lying about him and abusing him.
Men will listen to a man who does
that, then when they want sane and
reliable advice, they go to some man
who has a reputation as a thinker in
stead Of speaker. The men who do
things usually humor the takers In a
meeting by letting them have their
say, then the responsible part of the
