JUST A commonsEnse TRUTH.

Mr.. Bryan, has laid down an excel
lent rule for the common voter and the
legislator who does the VIII OF the vot-
err. To be sure, Mr.. Bryan was talking
about a. republican senator and might
have been more restrained in express
sion were democrat involved but he Is
talking sense when he says:
Any democrat who voted for Lorimer
for patriotic reasons ought to be re-
tired to private life and kept there long
enough to learn what patriotism
means, said Mr. Bryan. 1t is almost
as dangerous TO have g. fool In the leg
islature as a knave."
A democratic legislator who could be
convinced that he was performing a
patriotic duty TO do anything for Lor-
inner could be persuaded to do anything
desired by lobby, provided the same
patriotic arguments were used. He is
not ht for any representative position
it is hardly safe to allow him to run
at large.
1t is the truth, just a plain state
m ent of a vital truth in politics and
business and life The last resort Of a
knave is patriotism and the limit of
political idiocy is to vote for him.

REHABILTATING THE SALOONS

Knoxville Journal.
In the face of steadily growing
temperance sentiment, the dem ocratS
Of Iowa have harked to the discarded
notions of twenty-five years ago. for
method of dealing with the liquor
question. They propose the repeal of
the most drastic liquor law on the stat
ute books of any state. under which two
thirds of the counties Of the state have
absolute prohibition. and substitute
therefor a local option high license
law. 1t is proposed that the munich
pality instead of the county shall be
the deteun ming factor in deciding
whether or not the open saloon shall
agaig .,.vade the villages Of Iowa. The
SURF N of the whiskey forces was
conts,y - and unconditional But it
must prove embarra ssing to thousands
of democrats in Iowa. For instance.
what does our good friend, Judge Croz-
Ter, think of his party position on the
liquor question? AT the last session
Of the legislature Judge Crozier voted
for a resubmission Of the constitutional
amendment. It is probably unfair to
assume from this that he favors abso-
lutte prohibition of the liquor traffic.
but is he willing to about face on the
proposition and surrender the advan-
tage gained under the mulct law for the
old high license plan? Would he vote
in the legislature TO introduce the h4-
uor question into some sixty-f1ve or
seventy counties of the state where
there is now absolute prohibition? The
Journal is frank TO say that 1t does not
believe that Judge Crozier would be
bound by the LIQUOR plank OF the demo-
cratic platform.

as the site for a great city a locality

Cling fishermen, other great cities have
been founded upon sites almost as

After it is all said and done Carroll's
whole trouble lies in an unseemly de-
sire to gobble all the appointive offices
for his friends. He was afraid some
one would say that he couldn't control
all the offices, and in order to make
vacancies where there were none, he
was willing to belittle himself by man
ufacturing serious charges out of little
or nothing. In the Cownie case he
simply overreached himself, altho
working along the same lines as in
several other cases Many men, altho
innocent of any intentional wrong do

their time and energy in fight. and
at the same time suffer the unpleasant

CURIOUS INSTRUMENTATION.

[Des Moines Register and Leader].
The sentiment prevails in the east so
strongly that nobody can have any in
terest in the tariff excepting as some
thing he has to sell is affected by 1t,
that the most amazing blunders are
made every time an eastern newspaper
attempts to tell about Iowa.
Here is the New York Evening Post,
scholarly and we'll informed, saying:
If, however. the demonstration show
ed, as it easily might. that the duties
on Iowa wool are outrageously high,
we imagine that Cummins and Dolliver
would be fully as disturbed as Presi-
dent Taft can be now.
Certainly the Post ought to know
that the wool schedule was the objec-
tive point of one of Senator Delivers
most vigorous speeches, even if it did
not know that Iowa is not a wool state.
Let it be known once for all the pro-
gressive republicans of Iowa are not
standing for a tariff on Iowa products.
because they are the products of Iowa.
They are standing for tariff on the
agricultural products of the country
generally until some corresponding
benefits are conceded by the east for its
removal.
Iowa sentiment is dead against free
raw materials for highly protected
manufacturers. especially when the
west is furnishing the raw materials.

WHY IS cUMM1Ns?


But the one thing that has given
Cummins his following is the princi-
pie he represents. He stands with and
for new dispensation. Men are striv-
ing constantly to improve. Go over the
legislative record In Iowa during the
years Cummins was governor. It
tory Of the state in useful achieve
ments. This legislative record IS a
plot ograph of the mind of Iowa and OF
the entire west-indeed of the whole
country-and not that OF one or even
dozen individuals. And while these
reforms have been worked out in Iowa
under republican governor. they were
in process of solution in Minnesota I'M
der democratic governor In either
case was the governor anything but the
representative of public sentiment
which had been growing in the minds
and hearts of men for many years be-
fore.
Dull indeed must be the apprehension
OF those who can see nothing in the
drift Of affairs for the last dozen years
but the personality Of political leaders.
Cummins hypnotfzes no. one. much less
Dolliver. Senator Dolliver is himself
student He has been constantly grow
ing BY a natural and inevitable de-
velopment he finds himself In harmony
with modern, progressive thought. His
growth is akin to that of Gladstone.
The great English Com moner began
life as a conservative. He finished 1t
a progressive liberal. He became a
progressive because ne loved his fei-
low men and wanted to help them. To
do this he naturally and inevitably be-
came an opponent Of those who sought
to retain unfair advantage over others.
Both Deliver and Cummins represent
this great world wide movement which
on the other hand holds in check the
avarice and greed of the stronger.
