Colonel Watterson in the Louisville
Courier-J purnal pays characteristic
tribute to Uncle Joe Cannon, lifelong
political enemy. Under the heading,
"A Rift in the Clouds he says that
the Democrats have been burning
black smoke so long that they are apt
to oyerestimate any good fortune that
may come to them. The triumph in
the lower house of congress, which
they owe to the insurgent Republicans,
starts the braves to shouting, Wake,
snakes. day's-a-breakin' when 1t were
perhaps filter for them to murmur,
Small favors thankfully received. "
Mr.. Watterson comedies that it is a
long way from the overthrow of Can
non, who in the course of nature, had
not long to stay, and the election OF
a Democratic President in 1912 Very
many things are likely to happen be
tween now and then The victory,

real. In the meantime the Courier
Journal stands up on its hind legs and
says in its artless way:

Stand up, you magnificent old repro

the cowardly clamor and the ribald

ANOTHER IOWA ASSOCIATION.

There has recently been formed in
Manila the Iowa Association of the
Philippines The principal objects
Of the organization are two-fold:
first. to promote good fellowship
among 1owans sojourning in the Phil
ippines and foster their loyalty to the
Hawkeye state; and, second, to dis
seminate In Iowa authentic informa-
ton regarding the Philippines.
Ever since the American occupation
of the Philippines the curse of the ISL
ands has been the lack of understand
ing of chem and their affairs in the
United States. This Association pro-
poses to do what little it can to i'm
prove conditions in this respect, at
least in the state of Iowa More spe-
cifically, the objects of the Association
as set forth in the constitution adopt
ed are as follows:
/. The promotion of good-fellowship
among Iowans living in the Philip
pines and the fostering of their loyalty
to the Hawkeye state
@ The entertainment of Iowans
visiting the Philippines.
3. The reception of and FIRST aid
to prospective residents of the Philip
pines from Iowa.

Philippines.

A Steamboat on the Des Moines.

Ottumwa Courier. Believing that
the way to prove that the Des Moines
river is navigable is to navigate it,
Captain w. S. Keller of the steam
boat City of Eddyville" steamed up
early this morning and brought
party of eighty, including passengers
and crew, from Eddyville to Ottumwa.
Arriving at Ottumwa cargo of 500
pounds of merchandise was taken on
and the return trip was made.
Here is a hard nut for the skeptics
to crack" as Brother Sunday would
put it. The City of Eddyville' is a
steamboat, not a launch. This is of
fered for the benefit of those parties
who referred slightingly to the trip
made by Captain Lining of Keosau-
qua from Alton, H., to Ottumwa and
back TO Keosauqua via the Missis-
added, too, for the benefit of these
skeptics that Major Meigs and Cap.
tain Lining with their launches are
performing a great service in the
campaign for river navigation by
cruising up and down the river in
their launches. They Fave blazed
the way for the steamboats, that will
some day navigate the stream.
/ The trip of the City of Eddyville'
this morning will serve to strengthen
/ the enthusiasm of the Des Moines
river navigation boosters. The boat
left Eddyville at 1880 o'clock this
morning and arrived here at 10 O'Clock
after making three stops. The steam
er made twelve miles an hour in
actual running time.
Who says the Des Moines river
isn't navigable?

Where insurgency Showed the White
Feather.

Cedar Rapids Republican, If the
insurgents were all as sincere as
nine of them Were, the office of speak
er would have been vacated That
was the logical thing to have done.
II Cannon is a bad man and has been
abusing his power and betraying the
interests of the people, as is alleged,
then he should have been voted out
of office when the majority to do it
was at hand All that was lacking
was courage to carry the fight to it's
logical ending. The nine insurgents
who voted to GUST the speaker are
the insurgents who have the courage
of their convictions. The others are
merely compromising with the issue.
They have been trying to do enough
insurging to satisfy the insurgents in
their district, but they will not do any
more. They have done just enough to
show their political interest in the
question with which they are con.
fronted, but nothing more. They are
merely playing the political end of it

A Cedar Rapids lawyer is quoted in
the Republican of that city as saying
that he had never been in love with
Cannonism, but he feels kindly toward
Uncle Joe now after the way and the
manner they abused the old man In
commenting upon his utterance the
Republican expresses the belief that
there are a great many others who
feel the same way about it, and adds:
Some day it will dawn on many
more that Joe Cannon has been an
abused man, simply in the game OF
politics. He has abided by and en-
forced the same rules that Reed and
Henderson and Crisp, the Democrat
enforced The politicians have merely
used Cannon as a boyle man with
which to scare the people"

The Real Wreck Sufferers.

Waterloo Courier: 1t has been the
fate of Waterloo and neighboring ter
ritory to receive the blow of calam-
ity which is one OF the worst of its
kind in the history of this country.
Never before since the white man
has inhabited this vicinity has there
been such a wholesale slaughtering OF
human beings. The sun rose without
foreboding upon happy land when
the year was at the spring. But be-
fore it had gone far toward the zenith
an ugly fury had descended upon the
earth. dealing violent death to many
and worse than death to greater
mber-bereavement and despair.
The will of the Almighty may never
be understood But this much We
know That every heart in Water
loo and millions throughout the great
state of Iowa and the whole United
States-all are united in one great
tide of sympathy, a sympathy power
full enough to lift worlds, to do any
thing but-restore the dead to earth
" life again. There is the great
stone wall of existence which we can
penetrate only by the subtler powers
OF thought and faith.
Waterloo is today one in mind and
soul with those to whom the spring
sky has become so black. And ever
surrounded by this despair, we fer
vently hope that our united warmth
of fellowship will comfort and sustain
the real wreck sufferers those fam
lilies which are missing members that
will not return.
