GARsT FOR GOVERNOR.
Esprit Lake Beacon


Yesterday evening appeared the an
nouncement of Hon. Warren Garst as
candidate for the republican nomin-
alton to the governorship. Manifestly
this step means much more than per-
sonal desire. Governor Garst has at
no time betrayed eagerness TO make
this race. Not many weeks ago 1t was
his settled purpose not to do so.
Determ nation on the part of stand
patters more Jealous than discreet to
throttle progressive republicanism, to
organize the state for the political de-
struction of our progressive senators
and to line up Iowa with the Cannon
Aldrich wing Of national republicanism
destroyed the we'll established harmony
program in the state campaign. To
meet this movement most effectively
it has seemed necessary to accept the
standpat challenge for a fight all along
the line and this conclusion has re-
suited in an imperitive demand for a
progressive candidate for governor.
The logical man ro- ms leadership
is Warren Garst. He bears the stamp
conspicuously of progressive republic
canism, and upon his devoted person
are honorable scars Of heroism in its
support. He has a record OF honor and
Of usefulness. He is at once patriotic
in spirit, stalwart in character and
trained in the service of the state and
in the better relations of men and af-
fairs. While he has an honorable am
bition to sit in the seat Of Kirkwood
and Larrabe and Cummins, he has in
this season Of political unrest and Of
| imperative demand given indubitable
evidence of willingness to take his
place in the ranks under progressive
| leadership and is candidate only be-
cause he has been given to understand
that duty leads in this direction.
The candidacy OF Warren Garst is
the logical product Of conditions Gre
ated by standpat folly. Enmity, person.
al and factional. toward Dolliver and
| Cumimns has sacrificed harmony in
the state campaign and forced a pro-
gressive organization which inevitably
| includes progressive candidate for
governor. 1t inevitably follows that
around this color bearer is the rallying
point of progressive republicanism in
the state of Iowa, and that the cause
and the candidate must stand or fall
| together.

SHOULD CARROLL WITHDRAW.

AS an incentive and aid to party
harmony and in the interests Of a
united party should Governor Carroll
withdraw from the gubernatorial con-
test?
Governor Carroll it is asserted looks
upon the campaign with dark personal
foreboding. The shadow of defeat
falls across his path. His fears are
shared by his principal supporters.
From the state house the fight looks
like losing one In the stable the
COW lows lonesomely. Why die in the
last ditch? Why not withdraw?
Thousands of conservatives will
vote for Garst because he sizes up to
tives'' and hundreds of hundreds of
standpatters will vote against Carroll
because he rattles in the office like a
pea In a washboiler. The outlook is far
from assuring. Why not withdraw?
Governor Carroll has opportunity. He
can do the wisest act of his guberna-
torial career for himself who wants to
be governor and the state which pre-
fers that he shall not. He can with
draw.
The impulse of patriotism and the
desire for party harmony are suffi-
cient excuse. They will be accepted,
and nothing said of shrewdness in face
saving. should Carroll withdraw.

CLAUDE PoR7ER's HOPE.

Claude Porter is out for the demo-
cratic nomination for governor. His
announcement provides a third can
dIdate for democratic consideration.
The others are Senator Moon and s..
H. Bashor
Porter will win the nomination. He is
q logical candidate this year. The only
hope of democracy is a row in the re-
publican party If Carroll could be
nominated nothing would be doing and
S teve Bashor would do as wei as Porter.
But Carroll can not, as things look
NOW Garst will be the republican NOM
inee. Then Porter may appeal to his
boiling republican friends of a former
tate election. The democrats believe
they can line up once more the stand
patters and corporation republicans
against Garst and incidentally for Por-
ter.
However. times have changed. The
democratic hope is doomed to failure.
When Garst is nominated the Tepubli-
cans of the sttae will fall in behind
his candidacy. Some few will vote for
Porter, but the boilers who rushed in
rage to vote against Cnmmins will
never cross the line again as a body.
Some excellent men in the stress Of
anger and disappointment voted TO.
Porter once. Those are ashamed Of 1t
now. Moreover Garst is not hated by
conservatives Porter is leaning on a
broken reed And the railroads are
using their spare change in raising
1he wages of employees instead of de-
feating republican candidates.
1t would simplify matters very much
should Governor Carroll withdraw.

possibly do 1t in the plain merchandise
ing line if he sticks to it and is not
tempted away from it-that is to say,
If he has started out in business at
the bottom of the ladder with savings
from his salary as his only capital"
It will be noticed that Mr.. Simmons
doesn't undertake to say that 1T is i'm
possible by any means to make mill
chandising, the business OF buying
goods and selling them at profit.
Possibly he gives his observations on
this restricted application from a dis
tinct impression on his part that if a
million is to be made in any way it is
to be made in trade.
We think it interesting as indicating
a significant sensitiveness somewhere
that a leading Chicago newspaper de-
nounces Mr.. Simmons remarks as not
only erroneous, but vicious as well.
This Chicago sheet wants Mr. Simmons
and all Corners to understand that there
are plenty of millionaires who got
there honestly, and that it is desirable
that an ambition to repeat the per-
Torrance be inculcated into the breasts
of the rising generation.
The discussion would be more edify-
ing if Mr.. Simmons and the Chicago
editor would go back and begin over
again, each with his own definition of
honesty. Maybe that's where the real
difference occurs. 1t is likely
that no millionaire can be found to
concede getting his wealth dishonesty,
whether in trade or otherwise. Mr..
Simmons may have old fashioned no
tons about honesty. He might, for
example, think it dishonest to take
more than a certain profit on goods,
While others would think it perfectly
honest to take all the traffic will bear.

notice that Warren Garst is an
nounced as candidate for governor
against 3. F. Carroll. That is the
biggest piece of folly yet done by the
republicans of the state. Mr.. Carroll
is serving his first term and has not
been strong partisan OF faction. He
has been fair. His appointment of H.

showed he wanted to be fair and rep
resent both elements of the party. Peo-
pie who heard him speak in the cam
paign two years go know that he was
not a fractional partisan. Now, the only
excuse given by Mr.. Garst is the de-
sire to select progressive" candidates,
and the organization of Taft clubs Is
given as the reason. / do not know
whether a sufficient factional spirit
could be aroused in this state to pre-
vent a fair deal toward Mr.. Carroll or
not. 1t Is possible that he might be de-
feated for denomination, but feel
reasonably certain that such a course
would result in republican defeat in
November. The enemies of the republ-
lican party in this state are the ones
who are determined to fight. May the
consequences rest upon their heads.

A STEAMBOAT WARNING.
rTowa civ Citizen.1

1t is not difficult to see in this newly
announced candidacy that Garst is TO
be a sacrifice to the spirit of factlonal-
ism that has split the republican party
in Iowa and bids fair to run its course
until there is no party majority left.
The opening for defeating as clean
governor as Carroll for the customary
second term is very slight; and IT by
chance the nomination should go to
Garst under such circumstances it Is
doubtful if he could be elected, so great
would be the resentment against the
procedure. Granting his election he
would have continuous opposition dur
ing his term and of course a fight for
second term. both for nomination and
election. That is about the way such
moves work out IN politics.

BIBLE TALK HALTS A FIGHT
Young Clergyman Delivers n Scriptu-
raj Solar PIexus to Crowd
of BrawIers.

With few words of admonition and by
reading two verses from the Bible, the Rev.
Benjamin Kober, a young preacher of Pat
erson, N. j., quelled a group OF rowdies
as effectually as the nightstlcks of police
men could have done the work.
Mr.. Kober was in a car of the New York,
Susquehanna s. Western railroad in which
were fifteen drunken tough young men,
Near Butler they quarreled and soon fell
into a rough and tumble battle, snarling
phrases that would shame the boss of an
old-time gang of roustabouts. Women
trembled, men passengers scowled, but
made no move-that is, none except the
young clergyman. He sprang to his feet
Men, Men! End your strife! Cease your
blaspheming!" he commanded.
The fighting roughs laughed at him.
Remember, you are made in Gods i'm.
age" he continued earnestly BE men
respect decency. Repent! The Lord will
forgive you and help you"
Taking a Bible from his pocket, Mr.
Kober opened it at the twelfth chapter o
Isaiah and read impressively:
And on that day thou shalt say, {
Lord. will praise thee. Though thor
was angry with me, thine anger is turne,
away and thou comfortest me-"
The brawling group paused to listen. Tn
preacher went on:
And on that day shall we say, prais
the Lord, call upon His name, declare Hi
doings among the people, make mentor
that His name is exalted"
He had not finished the brief reading be
