SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.
TClarinda Herald

The Cummins substitute aims to
prevent any rate. classification, etc.
which involves an increase from
going into effect until it has been
approved by the commission. The
friends of the bill say they have
enough votes to defeat the Cummins
provision. which. they declare, would
alter the entire spirit of the inter-
state commerce law, inasmuch as 1t
would mean a change from federal
supervision to federal dictation of
rates. - Washington Correspondence
New York Tribune
Does any Iowa voter see anything
wrong in what is stated as being
the position Of Senator Cummins on
the railroad question? Is it disloy-
atty to the republican administra-
ton to take this position in view
of the platform declarations upon
which President Taft was elected?
It is time for some people to shut
up about about insurgency and dis
loyalty to the party. The real traitors
to the party are the fellows who are
trying to repudiate the platform
pledges by trickery.

THE KIND OF GOVERNOR.
Hardin County Citizenl

SltIZcul.
There are fifty thousand men in Iowa
who can attend to the clerical duties of
the governors OFFICE and do just as
good job as Carroll. The people ex-
pect their governor to be a leader, they
expect him to study public questions
and create sentiment for right, and
they expect him to stand out in the
clear and maintain his position.
Governor Johnson of Minnesota was
great because he was a leader of pub
lie thought and not an office clerk.
Governor Hughes of New York was
great because he was a leader Of pub
lie thought and not merely an office
clerk, who prided himself in knowing
nothing about the affairs Of the nation.
Governor Folk OF Missouri was great
because he stood for something more
than an office clerk. And so on and on,
turnout the list Of the nations better
men.
Iowa expects more Of her governor
than an Office clerk, attending strictly
to his desk.

FREEz KILLED "BILLYS" TREES
[Odcbclt Chronicle

It seems almost incredible that a
spring freeze should kill big trees, but
it looks as if the cold wave which came
early in April had taken the lives of the
cottonwoods. Two big trees in the
editors yard are apparently dead and
others in the neighborhood are in like
condition. They We're in leaf when the
first April freeze came, and so were
the NAPLES and other trees. The leaves
were frozen on all, but every species
but the cottonwood has put out new
foliage. The, twigs of last years
growth are dropping from the latter
and one can find no buds on them. We
do not believe there is any prospect OF
second growth OF leaves this season.
and we shall be surprised if there is
any life left IN the trees

shame Of it is that these young fellows

law for the isolation or quarantine of

a great deal Of this rottenness.

respondent obtained from Englishmen
of letters the following tributes to
Mark Twain:
Jerome K. Jerome-Thank God. he
lived
Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree-Mark
Twain was one of the great men of
America. He and Bret Harte were
mighty men. He had an enormous
force of humor which is even a greater
business. The criticism of humor is
even more effectual than all the at
tacks of blind antagonism. 1 wish one
could hear his posthumous repartee to
death. What fine man he was in
recovering his position. Even they to
whom it is not given to admire his
genius can admire his commercial up
rightness and virtue
Anthony Hope-Mark Twain was held
In as high honor. and regard in Eng
land as in America, and the loss of the
writer and of the man will be as deeply
felt. We are glad to think that on
! his last visit we at least tried TO show
him the place he held in our hearts.
1 am very sorry personally. He was
very kind to me.
Granville Barker, playwright and
actor-If "Huckleberry Finn" had been
his only service to humanity that hu-
morous epic of the two honest souls.
Huck and Jim, upon their raft, shows
beauty where perhaps only his dis
corning heart would have found it, we
still could know, think, that il is a
great mans memory we are blessing
now. and I should still be proud once
to have shaken his hand
Here are some newspaper comments:
The Daily Mail-The death of Mark
Twain has eclipsed the gayety of ma
tions. Beneath his fun he was a Sc
rlous thinker and maintained a lofty
ethical standard. His humor was like
his honor, clean and in good intent, and
is another rich contribution to the
common heritage of English speaking
nations.
Daily Chronicle-The death of Mark
Twain will be felt as a personal loss
wherever the English language is read
His humor was the man himself and
everybody loved him. whilst his misfor-
tune which he met so finely revealed
the independence and integrity of his
character.
Daily News-The death of Mark
Twain means far more than the loss of
the most famous American humorist
Twain was. of course, that, but he was
also for the world outside Of the United
States the most perfect embodiment of
American character and genius HIS
fun welled up from a generous human
