WHAT, A BOLT IN IOWA?

That the standpat wing of the
republican party in Iowa will bolt
every progressive republican nomi-
nee wherever there is a chance to
defeat them is settled matter. I'm
der the above caption Dave Brant of
the Iowa City Republican says:
There will be no bolt in Iowa
this fall. Dear no. Boiling is obso-
lete 1t is possible that few, quite
a few, maybe, will avail themselves
OF the power given them to place
principle before party, and decline to
vote for those in whose doctrine they
do not believe.
Surely we have been taught that
where party goes astray, it is not
required that we follow it in it's me-
anderings. Slavishness to party is
one of the besetting dangers to the
American commonwealth. The Pop
ular Prince has told us So 1t is such
a pleasant surprise to find one point
OF agreement with the Prince that
his preaching may be given trial in
practice.

IOWA AND TAFT.

The republican insurgents, in con-
vention assembled, in effect gave
President Taft and his administra-
ton a sharp slap in the face in the
resolutions adopted yesterday. The
effect of the discourteous treatment
of the chief executive will be more
detrimental to the party in Iowa than
to President Taft. The resolutions
presented by the regular partisans
will stand as model of true-hearted
and loyal republicanism. President
Taft may have reasons to rejoice that
in spite of the eloquence of Senator,
Cummins and the steam roller meth
DDS utilized by the insurgents, nearly
one half of the convention stood
squarely out for the unqualified en-
dorsement of him and his administra-
ton. There is no reason to doubt
that the resolutions presented by
Colonel Hepburn voice the sentiment
OF the bone and sinew of the republic
can party in Iowa today.-Burling-
ton Hawkeye.

IOWA AND THE CENSUS.

Nevada Representative: If Iowa
finds the census going against it
this year.. there need not be cha
grin. Iowa's largest town is still
under hundred thousand; only
about so many people are required
to occupy it's farm land, in accord
ance with present methods of agri-
culture; the state is able to feed
Chicago, colonize southern Cali
fornia, develop Oklahoma and stir
up any amount of politics and be
the center of much attention as well
as the middle of the map, and if it
does not show the average growth
in population the reason is that the
State is doing more for other States
than is any other State in the Union.
So if the census figures Iowa down to
ten congressman, Iowa need not
make fuss nor ask that the walls
of the hall of Representative be
bulged out in order to get an elev-
enth member there from Iowa. Ten
congressman and two senators can do
enough to keep Iowa in the game
alright, if they are of the right sort
the fright sort in this case
means that they shall be men of suf-
ficient character and ability to speak
with truth their best convictions.

"ADMITTEDLY ROTTEN"

We can not refrain from quoting,
while on this subject, from frank
spoken editorial in the Sioux City
Journal published the day before the
primaries The Journal said:
'In a nutshell the issue to be de-
cided is whether Iowa is still a re-
publican state. There has been re-
volt in the party, just as there was
in 1896. :" 1t is based on the
theory that the leadership of the
party has been rotten. The accept
ance of this theory must mean the
admission that the party in recent
years has been against the public in
terests. s. Iowa must choose be-
tween Taft and the republican party
and Cummins and Dolliver and the
democratic party. The country is
looking to Iowa to correct the mis-
take of Indiana"
The country has looked in vain.
The question was put up to the re-
publicans of Iowa themselves, and
the result is a hung jury-six voting
guilty and six mot guilty." Half
of the party votes that that the party
leadership is rotten" and the
party record against the public in
terests;;' half prefers "Cummins and
to Taft and the republican party"
to Taft an dthe republican party"

WELL DONE, IOWA.

If the sweeping insurgent victory
in the Kansas primaries did not dem
onstrate to republican leaders the
futility of standpat efforts to pull the
wool over the eyes of the west, Iowa's
reputation of the Aldrich-Taft tariff
and the Taft administration should
leave no doubt.
The sole issue in the Iowa conven-
ton was the tariff. By majority of
nearly 800 the progressives denounc-
stamped the Aldrich-Taft tariff as
not satisfactory fulfillment of party
promises, demanded non-partisan
tariff commission and real revision,
and approved the amendment of
house rules taking power out of the
hands of the speaker.
By way of rejoinder to standpat-
tiers who have read Cummins and
Dolliver out of the party, the Iowa
republicans Endorsed the two sena-
tors, and remarked that ''the repub-
licans of Iowa are the best judges of
the republicanism of the senators
and representatives whom they send
to congress"
Resolutions approving the Taft adj
ministration were defeated by vote
of S34 to $40, and Taft's picture was
not even permitted among the pic
lures of Mckinley, Roosevelt, Lin
coin, and other republican leaders
that decorated the convention hall.
The entire proceedings showed
conclusively that Mr.. Taft is discred-
tied by the republicans of Iowa, and
that he is discredited because of his
failure to keep the tariff reduction
pledges by means of which he won
Iowa votes in 1908
The west demands the reduction of
the tariff burden. Mr.. Taft promised
to secure it's reduction. His disregard
of his promise has lost him and his
standpat friends the confidence of the
people, and will result next Novem-
Der in their political downfall.

This week a reader of this paper
| received document purporting to be
speech delivered by Hon. Nicholas
Longworth, of Ohio, (son-in-law of
Roosevelt on the subject of the ben
efits of the Payne tariff law The
speech came under the frank of "Wm.
B. Mckinley, M. c. At the head of
the speech ON the inside page was
speech of Hon, Nicholas Longworth
delivered before the league of repub-
lican state clubs at Washington, D. c.,
on Saturday, April 8, 1910" This
postage on the theory that it was
part of the Congressional Record,
when it was delivered before club.
These speeches were probably sent
broadcast over the country, without
postage, and it is one of these straws
that shows where the expense is made
up in the postoffice department that
makes the deficit. Probably the gov
eminent was worked to- print the
speech. This is the way the son-in-
law keeps before the public. If Nick
wants to send his speeches.. or if Nc
kinley wants to send them out for
him, that is speeches delivered be-
fore clubs, they ought to pay the
postage and not work them Off as
government matter, as this was APP
parent1y done. The envelope in
which the Leon gentleman received

let says it was delivered on April 9

JUST BEFORE THE BATTLE
BOYS!

There is 'bad blood in the repub-
lican ranks in Iowa. A decade ago a
row was started and from that day to
this, if much that has been said is
true, the old guard, the men who for
thirty of fourty years have fought
the party's battles and won it's VIC
tories. belong to the criminal class
Not only so, but principles and pol
icies for which the democrats of the
country have shouted from 1856 to
the present time have been indorsed
and made the battle cry of progress
sive republicans. These principles
and these policies have been urged
upon the party of Lincoln and Nc
Kinley, and all who have opposed
ters,' accompanied by the assur-
pat. More than 100000 republi-
ans of Iowa never have and never
will indorse such a betrayal of prin-
ciples. If the fighting is forced along
such lines the time is not distant
when the column will halt at the
parting of the ways" And when
that time comes the democrats will
have an easy victory. The stalwarts
have not forgotten the treachery
which sent democrat to congress
an place of Maj. Lacey, a democrat
in place of Col. Hepburn, and which
drove Col Henderson into retire
ment and fastened his death Their
crime was in their devotion to the
time honored principles of their par
ty and their loyalty to it's flag. They
are not unaware of the threats that
have been made to defeat Kennedy
and Smith, the two stalwart can
didates for congress in this years
campaign. These are not forgotten.
The insurgent camps are being
watched from many outposts and the
Sentinels are vigilant-alert The
stalwarts are not yet ready to play
the role of dumb, driven cattle.''-
Marion Register (standpat).

NOW WHAT DOES TAFT THINK?

1t is now stated on good authority
that President Taft has experienced
change in mind and that he has dis
covered that insurgency is the way
to perpetuate his regime. 1t this is
the case we can not but help wonder
how he will dispose of number of
questions that have not only troubled
him but at the same time have wor-
ried the American people. We Won
der what he can think of some such
things as these:
What does he think of the cabinet
he appointed, in which progressive
republicanism has not a single repre-
sentative?
What does he think of the running
mate he chose in preference to Sena-
tor Sunny jim" Sherman?
What does he think of the part he
took to compel the house to re-elect
Cannon speaker and adopt the Can
non rules, when it was called to-
gether in special session?
What does he think of the fulsome
Endorsement he gave Senator Aldrich
as pure and unselfish patriot and
..the leader of the senate?'
What does he think of the praise of
the Aldrich-Cannon tariff as 1.-The
best tariff law ever passed."
what does he think of his official
exculpation of Ballinger as fixed up
by Oscar Lawler and of the anteda-
ting of the Wickersham opinion?
What does he think of the action
in discharging Pinchot and CLAWS?
What does he think of his action
in swinging the patronage club
over the heads of those same insur-
gents he is now anxious to placate
and of the fight his administration
has made, and is still making, against
La Toilette in Wisconsin?
What does he think of the stab he
administered to the income tax?
What, in fact, does he think of his
entire record as president, from his
inauguration to the present date?
How can he repudiate Aldrich and
Cannon and Ballinger without re-
pudiating also himself?
In the language of our most versa
tile man. of letters, Mr.. Jack London,
eve are curious to know-we are
curious to know. st. Joe Observer.

MIR. TAFT AND VACATION TIME.

Men on small salaries, and men
who cannot leave their affairs to
others even for day, highly appre-
ciate President Taft's assertion that
every man should enjoy three months
vacation each year.
Unfortunately, the average citizen
can not command a war ship with a
$4,000 bathroom and brass band
at public expense for his vacationing
BY the time he has paid for his
living at the prices which the Aldrich-
Taft tariff permits Mr.. Taft s. New
England friends to charge, the or
binary man, who depends on his earn
ings, and is forced to keep his ex-
penditures within his income, is lucky
if he has the price of a car ride to the
park.
Still, Mr.. Taft's suggestion is
worth considering.
If Uncle Sam keeps on increasing
his navy at the present extravagant
to go round by the time universal
peace is declared.
BY way of excuse for keeping them
in commission and spending tax mon
ey in tens and hundreds of millions,
congress can establish legal three
months vacation for everybody, to
be spent aboard a war ship at public
expense.
Every tax payer is just as much
entitled to expensive junketing, paid
for out of taxes, as is the president
of the United States.
BY all means let us have the three
months legal holiday, and give ev-
erybody chance to enjoy a brass
band, $4,000 bathrooms and a
| healthful life on the ocean wave
aboard war ship.-Chicago Journal

THE DEMOCRATIC POSITION.

Republican spellbinders have init
mated the Democratic party stands
for free trade Absolute free trade
is impractical with the United States.
Every country in the world, includ-
ing Great Britain, levies some tariff,
and this country must always do So
The Democratic position on the
subject is substantially as follows:
First: The Government should
never collect one penny more of reve-
mue than necessary to administer it's
affairs with rigid economy.
Second: The lowest rate that will
yield the greatest amount of revenue
should be imposed.
Third: Luxuries should always
bear the highest revenue duties.
Fourth: Experience has vindi-
Gated the wisdom of ad valorem du-
ties as being the correct practice.
Fifth: Revenue duties should be
laid SO as to operate with equality
throughout the union, discriminating
neither for nor against any class OF
section.
Sixth: Absolute necessities should
go on the free list.
Seventh: There should be i'm
posed revenue duty upon practically
all imports, with certain exceptions
These exceptions should be deter
mined by the test:
Imports coming in competition will
trust-controlled products should BIZ
placed on the free list, and article:
ported free of duty.

WATCH THE RAILROAD SITUA TON

For some mysterious of the forces hereto
fore fighting sturdily for terminal rates and insisting
terminal rates franchises for the roads, have
ceased to make noise about it.
Why? Why9
At this time The Press is not of the though
it thinks it knows and investigation may reveal the
facts but the present situation simply goes to prove the
former assertion made by this newspaper to the effect
that the city between the devil and he deep the
railroad fight and that would be well for citizens to take
the most active part in the battle and look strictly after
their own interests
The Press is free to confess that the terminal rate ques
ton is knoty to solve but it has doubt that val
liable concessions may be wrung from the Milwaukee and
North Coast by putting determined front and not Civ
ing in at every point
This warning is needed just than at any pre-
vious time in the discussion. Citizens, watch the situation
closely. Let's get these roads, but tired Of
the ''mess of pottage" diet.
