No woman should submit TO surgi-
cal operation, which may mean death,
until she has given Lydia T.. Pinkham's

the United States bear willing testi-
mony to the wonderful virtue Of Lydia

to be placed at risk by any local COM
plications. Our judgment may have
been at fault. Be that as It may, Gov
ernor Carroll, whether Willingly or
otherwise, became identified with the
radical anti progressive movement
which was organized at the state good
roads meeting on the Sth of March. and
which has been forwarded with con-
siderable zeal since that time. He has
never disclaimed any responsibility in
that connection. The feeling Of oppo-
sition, which had died down, was re-
vived by belief that this movement
masked an effort to discredit Senators
DolIiver and tCummins and the Iowa
congressman who have stood for pro-
gressive principles, and the present
situation is the result.
Governor Garst becomes the stand
ard bearer of the progressive cause in
Iowa in the coming primary campaign,
and over and above that issue he Will
command an unusually large support
in Greene county on the score OF per-
sonal friendship. AS governor of the
state for a brief two months he has
given evidence of unusually strong and
vigorous executive ability, and his ele-
walton to the position OF CHIEF execI-
tive at this time will be not only
vindication Of progressive principles,
both state and national. which the Bee
ardently believes to be right, but Will
insure to Iowa a capable and honortng
administration Of all her affairs.

THE HUMANITY OF BUSINESS.

The United States Steel corporation
Is doing a very just and sensible thing.
It proposes 10 assume liability for acci-
dents and injuries to its employees Wnlle
engaged in their duties in the employ
Of the corporation and 10 make stipu-
lated com pensation TO be determined
by the nature and effect OF the in
juries sustained and the number DEEPEN
dent on the injured person. Il viii
forego any appeal 10 the courts and
settle directly with the injured employe
or his family.
OF course this conclusion on the
part of the steel con. pany has its hu-
name SIDE but il is not q humanitarian
move in the strict sense. L 5 plain
business En- ployers' liability is by
way Of being established. Litigation is
excessively expensive when a. the end
a court assesses just damage and the
amount % court costs. lawyers fees
and payment 70 the injured IS aggre-
gated. a number OF large employing
companies have come 70 the conclusion
that the cfleaupe- method and one more
in line with their own interests and
inclinations is 70 pay the money 20 the
man who was hurt while working TOR
them rather than 10 a horde OF Lawyers
and in court costs. Il is both cheaper
in money and in reputation.
The employe IS in the same boat. He
has been suing for excessive sums,
compromising with a lawyer a contin-
gent fee which absorbs half or more OF
whatever sum may be obtained. The
case drags up and down thru one court
after another from one term 10 an
other The immediate relief he needs
he does not get When the settlement
finally comes ne gets a portion OF what
was justly due and the lawyer gets the
other
The common sense way is the ore
taken by the steel cam pany, sensible
for both sides of the contention. There
is no need 10 sentinentaliza over il; in
deed there is slight sentiment connect
ed with il. II is just plain business
agreement between the man who risks
his life or his limbs for wages and
the other man who makes profit on
the risk and the labor, The liability TO
injury is always a fixed charge upon
the person Of the laborer. Payment Cor
injury VIII now become a fixed charge
upon the profits OF the company. Both
will profit by the change. They have
eliminated the middleman and parasite.
Good business methods are always
humanitarian There is much more
humanity in accepting liability than in
hystericaIly demanding semi-penal
liability law

THE GARsr CANDIDACY.
Jefferson Bee.]

Jefferson bee
The political sensation of the past
week is the announcement by Hon.
Warren Garst, of Coon Rapids, of his
candidacy before the June primaries
for the republican gubernatorial nom
nation. In another column today ap-
pears Mr.. Garsi's letter OF announce
ment, in which he states the principles
for and upon which ne Will stand. Mr.
Garst is man of clean life, of COM
manding personality. of splendid abil-
ity, Of undoubted integrity. Thrice ne
has represented Greene county in the
upper branch OF the general assembly,
and is like one Of our own citizens. No
man outside our own borders, stands
so close 10 our people, and has so many
warm personal friends in Greene coun-
~ who will find it a pleasure to lay
aside other consideratio and aid him,
as Warren Garst
The Bee has no stones to throw at
Governor Carroll. We believe he is an
honest man. We are on record as not
having been unfriendly to his renom-
nation. We have felt that the for
warding of the progressive movement
as a national issue was too important

and adequate service and to adopt q
uniform system Of accounting.
in Iowa such q sum was defeated
at the last legislature, principally be-
cause such q commission would inter
fere with the workings Of our present
boards OF coMmis sion and the new
city commission plan, commonly known
as the Galveston plan. There's q
chance for some good constitutional
lawyer to draw q public utilities bill
for the next legislature, that will in no.
wise interfere with present constituted
boards or city government by commits
sion. Such board would do moro
than to inquire into the cause OF the
wreck near Green Mountain, to recon-
mend a viaduct over the railroad cross
ing in MarshalltoWn, to accommodate
the people along the Story City branch
with better train service, as well as
have telephone service at Abbott
Crossing. Evidently these matters are
not under the jurisdiction of our pres
ent board of railroad commissioners.
Getting back to our pure food laws,
dealer in one of our Iowa towns
bought from an Omaha firm barrel of
pure" linseed oil. Before he sold any
OF it he found out that under our laws,
such pure" linseed oil could not be
sold legally, SO he wrote the Omaha
firm, telling them OF the above circum-
stances and wanted to return this
pure" oil They refused, saying he
bought of their travelling agent and
they expected him 10 pay for it and
would draw at sight when the bill was
due. Said Iowa merchant then ordered
o., -aI
barrel of turpentine. Now the Iowa
dealer offers the Omaha fiymtfe pay for
the barrel Of turpentine. if he can re-
turn the pure hnseed oil and get full
credit for the same, otherwise they can
for both pure oil and turpentine. There
are some fine legal points involved
While the writer was in Iowa Falls
recently there was some great work GO
ing on with that dam business. It has
been told in the papers how the river

So much the writer ascertained from
the Iowa Falls man. but who the out
siders represented and what they
thought OF doing was state secret. 1t

ONLY ONE NAN.

Mayor Bryson, of Iowa Falls is cred
tied with a new idea for the enforce
ment of the liquor laws. He would
have the men arrested for intoxicatlon
report to him the names OF the men
who sell or give them liquor IL quiz
zing men addicted to the liquor habit
had ever been effective in the slightest
degree there would not be a place in
the state where liquor could be bought
The plan has been tried time and time
again but men will go to jail for the
full limit of time and pay the heaviest
fines to protect the fellows who gave
them the poison Mayor Tyler, OF Ell
dora, has tried it ever since he was
mayor and never once has drunk told
where he got his liquor. There is only
one plan and that is never popular
even among people who profess to
want the law enforced. and that is the
use of detectives. The business could
soon be stopped in Hardin county if
a fund were available for that purpose.

PAYING IN PaRpoNs.

Paying political debts in pardons has
kone somewhat out OF fashion OF late
years hut the custom has not been
abolished in Tennessee as appears from
the pardon by the governor OF that
state Of his personal and political
friend who shot and killed Senator
Carmaak.
Colonel Cooper was sentenced 10 a
term OF twenty years for the Carrn ack
killing. The jury and the court CO.
incided that the shooting was premedi-
tatad and unjuslided- It was the out
come of political rivalry and personal
abuse on both sides. Cooper shot Car
mack al the end Of a long and ex-
treuely bitter period of personal and
political antagonisn. Now he has been
fred with nineteen years OF MS SEN
tsnce 10 serve.
Governor Patterson asserts that
Cooper was nor guilty. The jury, how
ever, said that he was guilty. He was

Of the governor II as is possible
Cooper's political partnership assisted
TO his conviction under the severer
charge il would appear that the same
force has assisted him TO freedom.
II is bad thing for Tennessee. There
IS a suggestion o. defiance OF law and

AN OFFICE OF ORGANIZED CHARITY,

The real office of organized charity
is to assist, guide and direct 70 the
opportunity to earn a living The
larger cities are full of idle men and
hungry fanilie. Even the smaller Cit
les are burdened with class some OF
whom refuse to work, ali of whom are
Incapable of skilled labor. and of whom
many have come to depend on others
rather than themselves. Those who
absorb the charity of the cities have
fallen into fatalistfc state of mind
If work is to be had they work, if not
al hand they wait wondering whether
or not there will be next meal. They
have lost touch with opportunity. Their
world is bounded by the block And
while families go ragged and often
hungry, but a few miles outside the
city limits the country is clanorins
for labor at a living wage, where a
family may be reared decently and
compared with the present conditions
of the class particularly referred to,
comfortably, even by com parison In
luxury.
Thousands of workingmen are walk
ing the streets of the cities or hanging
over the brink of restitution; that is
thousands who would be good farm
hands with a seasons farm experience
Among these are many who would
take a chance on the farm" were the
chance to offer. 1t is the Office of
organized charity to move and locate
these families. A cottage with shade
trees, lawn and garden spot, chick
ems, fresh eggs, a pair of pigs growing
into porkers in the pen, is a charm to
draw families form the squalor of a
city tenement to the country, IL the
road Is opened. There are hundreds of
such tenant homes on Iowa farms
More should be built. And the farm
ers OF Iowa clamoring for help should
combine with organized charities OF
enc kind and another to bring two cry
ing needs together. The vacant "ten-
ant house and the cheap tenement
district are antfdotes for ono smother.
They lack mixing.
There should grow up in Iowa a
multitude of neat, decent tenant
houses" They should not have the

Looker-On In Iona

Dumont April 1e-An effort was
made during the last legislature to pass
law compelling all food package
manufacturers to mark plainly on each
package the net weight such package
contains. Such a bill will probably be
presented next winter again. One Of
the largest retail grocers in a nearby
Iowa town suggests calling attention in
this column to present practices. For
instance large creamery adyertfses
butter 20, % and 30 cent packages
some short sighted customers imagine
they are getting q pound Of butter in
all Of these packages. The grocer SAYS
Its all the same grade Of butter. none
OF them weighing a pound. He men
tons cracker package sold every
where for cents and says consumers
are paying nearly 10 cents per pound
for crackers. this with -four say BIZ
cents pound and water 30 cents for
800 barrels. He tells OF dried beef. and
for all We know dried horse at 20 cents
tumbler full, and one pound Of dried
beef sliced will I'll three such glasses
This grocer says the ordinary buyer OF
food needs a guardian in the shape of
law. not onlyq compelling manufacture
ers to print on labels what such food
product is composed of. but also the
net weight Of the food it contains.
Progressive Iowa in the political
sense is no misnomer, but in matters
affecting personal rights as against
cooperative greed and negligence we
are way behind other states. New
York has such law and the New
York legislature has finally passed a
public utilities bill, and it is believed
that Governor Fort will sign the meas
ure, which will reach him on Monday
The bill provides for the creation OF
public utilities commission and that
mo issue, sale and delivery Of its
stock or OF securities authorized by II
and maturing more than twelve months
from the date thereof. by any public
utility, shall be valid until approved by
the board" and that mo lease Of 1T
