"Ottumwa has made good showing
In the raising of funds for the pro
posed interurban between that town
and Iowa City" says the Cedar Rapids
Gazette. 'The business men have
pledged 100000. Now the right-of-
way and terminal facilities are being
secured. The road seems to be as
sured. The cities directly interested
and the intervening country are en-
titled to congratulations The road
is needed. incidentally the new rail-
way will give Cedar Rapids interurban
communication with sOttumwa. some.
thing which will not be at all dis
pleasing to people in this neck o the
woods"
\ But that isn't all Ottumwa has
done. On the heels OF this interurban
campaign the boosters have raised the
greater part OF q fund needed to Sc
cure new factory that will add thou'
sands to Ottumwa's pay roll. The re-
mainder Of the fund will be raised,
too. Ottumwa has got down to bust
ness and determined to make 1910 an
epoch year for Ottumwa.

CONGRESSMAN SMITH.

Council Bluffs Nonpareil-Judge
Walter /. Smith opened his campaign
for reelection in an address delivered
at Orient Tuesday afternoon. 1t was
most excellent address from every
point OF view. It's temper, tone. sub
|ject matter and purposes were COM
Fmendable. 1t was not factional; 1t
was an appeal for support Of republi-
can policies as opposed to democratlc
policies fractional differences were
recognized only to emphasize the fact
that both elements OF tie party were
entitled to consideration. The Judge
was happy In his illustration OF the
situation now confronting republican
voters. He referred to the war OF the
sects among Christians and suggested
that while there were differences as
to detail all Christians ought to be able
to agree that the Christian civilization
was superior to the Mohammendan.
Likewise, 1t ought to be possible TOT
the sects Of republicanism to accept
republican administration as superior
to democratic.
campaign on plane where all republl'
cans can support him without the sac
|rifice OF their honest convictions con-
corning the differences that divided the
party before the primary Nobody ex.
lpected Smith to do anything else.
Nevertheless It, will be gratifying to
the republican voters of the district to
see the campaign inaugrated and N
actual operation along these lines. All
republicans really want to be loyal to
their party, and they likewise want to
be loyal to their convictions. Smith
has generously opened the door SO
wide that all may enter without EN-
barrassment and there should not be
the slightest hesitation on the part 81
any man who believes republican prinr'
ciples better than democratic in &C.
cepting the invitation thus proffered
Plain old fashioned honesty Is Just
as essential II political affairs as It is
In business.

IS THIS THE NEW NAT,oNALlsM

The mails this morning brought q
news article from Boston with the ex-
PLANTATION that the Courier was author
lied to publish all or any part of it
without cost. Failing to arrive at an
understanding OF just what this Prop
osition amounts to, the Courier
passes 1t on to it's readers. Here 1t Is:
The ultimate ownership and full
administrative control of all the
worlds industrial machinery and the
return to the peoples Of the earth OF
that industrial machinery, in equal
shares, is the project seriously adj
vanced and actually inaugurated under
a legal charter by a Boston millionaire
merchant who has made a close study
of economics for the last twenty years.
He believes that his conclusions mark
the birth of social and industrial
science and offer the only rational
solution OF the competitive war for
existence between individuals and cor
porations, He also Is convinced that
his plan will end all labor troubles,
establish a real worlds peace and eff
fectively unite the worlds peoples for
practical cooperation.
The plan includes the abolition OF
any recognized division Of the earth
into nations, divisions of its peoples
into nationalities or division of owner
chip Of the worlds industrial ma
chinery. It is intended to displace all
governments and to absorb, control
and eventually direct industrial life all
over the world and thus, to quote the
author. "Tear down the barriers OF
caste and nationality and combine all
peoples in equal shares in one brother
hood for one common purpose"
The Courier confesses that it is
rather stumped by this article. Clearly
this is not standpat proposition. 1t
doesn't seem to be an insurgent decla-
ration, for these things are not COW
cred in the platforms adopted by the
states where the insurgents are in the
harness. Perhaps this is the ''new ma
tionalism." Up-to-date no full explana-
ton has been given Of just what the
new nationalism" proposition is, and
the Boston man may have stolen g,
march on Col. Roosevelt and let the
cat out Of the bag.
Anyway 1t must be admitted that it
Is some proposition. All the. in
surgency, .standpatism and Roosevelt
speeches combined will not start with

oTTuMwA FEELS JUST PRIDE.

oTrUMWA FEELS JUST PRIDE
The Ottumwa boosters have re-
deemed their promise to make 1917
/ Ottumwa's banner year. The success
! ful close OF the interurban and pump
factory campaigns marks great
achievement and one OF winch "
tumwa may well be proud.
It was less than q year ago that the
new Ottumwa spirit was awakened.
The first move was to recruit the
strength of the Commercial assocla-
ton into fighting organization
hacked by funds sufi cient to make It's
work effective. The membership OF
the boosters organization in that cam
naipn was increased beyond the 800
mark and the Commercial assoclatlo.i
became, more than 1t ever mao Deen
before, vital factor in ADVANCING "
tumwa's interests.
Since increasing its membership Inc
Commercial association has taken q, a
place in the front rank OF iowa >
booster organizations, and Ottum"as
renutation as live business center
has correspondingly benented.
Through it's committees the CONNER
cia, las brought conventions TO "
tumwa. among them the state demo-
cratic convention, has taken the lead
IN the move for the improvement OF
the Des Moines river, has pushed plans
for the erection of new hotel IN "

in various other ways.
The first of the year the interurban
campaign was taken up with VIII ana
s1O. 600 was raised to permit the IN
ternrban Construction company TO
nrnapect this field and make 1nterur-
han surveys. Then the Iowa City-Ot-
tnmwa interurban proposition came up
and Ottumwa responded with q Will.
The result was that 100000 was Sc
cured as Ottumwa's share OF the Iund
nacsasarv. to secure this line. No
sooner WIS this campaign brought 70
4 successful conclusions than q cam
pai9n was started to raise APPROX .n
imately $4,000 to secure the Moline
pump company. Now this campaign
has been closed and the boosters yes
terday afternoon photographed the MO
lire arm to ship their machinery ana
goods to Otumwa. Work Will pegln
soon on the factory building that VIII
house the pump company and another g.
indnstry employing skilled labor Will
