An Amusing Bunch.

The insurgents of the house are
certainly behaving beautifully of
late. Following their vote of con-
fidence in Uncle Joe they have voted
tariff law. When a motion was made
to repeal the obnoxious thing
(Which the insurgents voted against
and have ever since been condemn
ing) every mothers son of them
voted to retain it. The insurgents
are an amusing bunch. The demo-
Gratis are having all sorts of fun
with them. They put it up to them
to vote against Cannon (after lam
basting him for year or SOL or else
eat crow by voting for him, and they
ate crow. Then, after voting against
the Payne bill, and getting red in
the face every time President Taft
has said it was a good bill, the demo-
Gratis toyed with them again. They
fixed up job to test the insurgents
sincerity, and 10! when given a
chance to vote to repeal the scam
dalous CD measure they fall over
themselves to vote for the retention
of the vicious bill, the wool and the
trust robbing wood pulp schedules

A Foreign Warming.

A German official of note, who has
been visiting in the United States for
many weeks, believes he has dis
covered a startling condition of af-
fairs. He asserts that the time is
rapidly coming when the United
States will not be in a position to
supply the world with wheat and
grain and other foodstuffs, and that
some other country will be called on
to act as the granary of the world.
This country may be Canada, Man.
churia, or a South American state,
although Canada is given the prefer
ence by him in his economic fore
cast. In this particular respect the
eminent German agrees with James
J. Hill, who has been sounding sew
eral notes of warning to the Ameri-
can farmers, holding that they are
not raising enough wheat to supply
the needs of their own country in
the near future, to say nothing Of
the amount required for export

Women i'm the Pen.

There are now thirty-four women
confined in the Anamosa reform
atory This is the largest number
that have ever been imprisoned
there 1t is a good showing for the
women, however, when it is con-
sidered that over 900 men are doing
time in the reformatory and at the
Fort Madison penitentiary. Twenty
six men were convicted in Iowa to
one woman. 1t is well for the tax
payers that the morality of the wo-
men is better than that of men. If
it were not, they would have to
erect another penitentiary.
