1t Will Take Years to Recover
Recent Flood in Paris Was the Most Disastrous One in Re-
cent Years - Gossip from French Capital.

snow busting, Paris had gone and in
its place was great white silent city
with miles of white street, along
which omnibusses, wagons and auto
mobiles moved like ghosts along the
thick snow covered roads. The sill
ence was only broken by the boot OF
some auto horn or the noise made by
| its engine.
The wonder sight of Paris was the
Bots de Boulognes, where every tree
groaned under it's thick, white, heavy
canopy, and every inch of grass was
hidden beneath a covering of unbrok
en- white. The world famous Cathed
raj of Notre Dame was a fairy-like
and picturesque sight, the innumer
able carved figures of the facade be-
ing capped in white. while above and
about stood out in bold relief the tow.
ers, windows and gargolles. Again
the dome and parapets of the old
church of Sacre Occur. situated on the
which dominates the whole of Paris
looked like the spires Of huge, white
marble mosque.
With the cessation of snow, proper
which turned into sleet and was in
turn succeeded by rain which continu-
ed without interruption, in Paris, as
we'll as elsewhere in the interior and
on the coast the actual danger began.
An irreparable which the flood has
had on the gay Partisan life is the in
definite postponement of the Marde
Gras.
An immense amount of work has
been done in the matter of the pre-
paratIon OF floats and similar exhibit
tons. All Of the best known estab-
.ishments OF the Montmartre quarter
have prepared floats portraying one
or the other of many Of the best
known resorts, Or else suggestive of
places known Or which are believed
to exist. Among these humorous re-
presentations of Heaven and He'll. No
procession of thousands of reveleres,
watched by hundreds of thousands of
spectators will be seen in the streets
along which the procession was to
have passed.

OKLAHOMA AND KANSAS.

The Republicans Of Oklahoma
didn't insurge worth a cent. all three
stand-pat congressman having been
renominated at the primaries with
great ease. It is the Democratic
party that is cursed with cranks in
Oklahoma.
1t Is different in Kansas. From the
latest figures given out it would ap-
pear that three. and possibly four. Of
the regular Republican candidates for
Congress have been defeated for re-
nomination. Anthony and Campbell
being apparently the sole survivors
Of the fight.
Kansas has been uncertain po-
Htically for nearly a generation. ever
since the first eruption Of the Popu-
lists, when the bewhiskered PETER,
'Sockless Jerry Simpson and other
more or less distinguished shouters
for reform came to the fore.
The SunflOwer state has been
quiescent for some time and there
has been a great lack of excitement.
Consequently the present outbreak is
perfectly natural The Kansas peo-
pie don't know what they want, but
they are going after it, any way.
By shelving Calderhead the state
loses representation on the ways and
means committee of the House and
all chance to impress the views of the
people of the state upon the men
who frame the most important bills
coming before Congress. By defeat
ing Reeder the state loses the chair
manship OF the irrigation committee
and the services of one of the best
posted men in Congress on land mat
tiers.

down in the wreck. are well-Seasoned
statesmen, who. by reason OF their
experience in legislative matters
have been able TO do much for their
constituents
1t IS folly 10 suppose that the new
men will be able to fill the places so
long occupied by these four faithful
Republican statesmen. Kansas has
simply placed itself at the foot Of the
legislative ladder. Two years hence,
after having had a little more ex-
perience, the Kansans may be ex-
pected to show signs of returning
sanity, even if they have not fully
recovered.
After all. the insurgent victory in
Kansas. if 1t can be called such, sim
ply means that the false issue of
"Cannonism" proved effective In win
ming votes. The insurgents who have
been chosen won out on that issue.
and as they all believe in the pro-
tective tariff principle. no great
amount of damage has been dcne to
the Republican party.
The victory OF d. r. Anthony in
the Leavenworth district is peculiarly
significant, as the insurgent pitted
against him is tinctured with free
trade ideas. The Kansans were not
foolish enough to turn Anthony down
for free trader, even if he did prom
Use to vote against Cannon. If elected.
The result in Kansas, looking at it
from all points of view, cannot be
said to endanger the Republican
principle of protection or menace the
existing tariff law. and that is all the
interest the people of Utah have in
the matter.

The automobile ordinance has
passed, and Mayor BransfOrd has
signed It, therefore it is the law of the
city. Have you heard of anybody
being arrested for speeding, or have
you noticed that the fool joy-riders
have moderated their speed? You
'have not. Let's see. what is the Tea-
son the ordinance is not being en-
forced? Oh yes, Chief Barlow needs
more policemen. Inasmuch as there
is a county election coming up, he viii
probably get them. Isn't this a funny
world? And wouldn't Sam Barlow
make you laugh?

BRYAN's INGRATTTUDE.

Jim" Dahlman, Omaha's cowboy
mayor" and advance agent of the
Bryan boom in two or three of the
Nebraskan's disastrous campaigns, is
beginning to realize how sharper
than a serpent's tooth it is to have a
thankless political leader
Dahlman is a candidate for gov
ernor OF the state. subject to the de-
cision Of the Democrats at the prima-
ries. By all known rules of political
warfare he should have the support
Of Mr.. Bryan. But past favors count
for nothing with the thrice defeated
aspirant for the presidency. He has
announced his support of Shellen-
berger. the present governor.
Bryan is also actively campaigning
against Gilbert NJ. Hitchcock. repre-
sentative in Congress from the Oma-
ha district, who has announced his
candidacy for the seat in the United
States Senate now held by Elmer
/ Burkett. Like Dahlman, Congress-
man Hitchcock has spent time and
money in the interest of Mr.. Bryan.
This is another fragrant case of in
gratitude.
State Senator Ashton is having a
similar experience. Ashton is a can
didate for Congress in the district
now represented by Insurgant Nor
ris. Mr.. Bryan has told Ashton that
! he deserves to be beaten, which is
tantamount TO saying that the peer
less one intends to support Norris.
Evidently Mr.. Bryan has given up
hope of running a fourth time for the
presidency unless the mueh-talked-of
third party is organized and a Jonah,
instead of a Moses, is selected as
standard bearer.

THE IOWA CONVENTION.

The platform OF the Iowa Repub-
licans reafirms their loyalty to the
Republican national platform of
1905. It also emphasizes the long
and well settled faith of the Iowa Re-
publicans in the doctrine OF prOtec-
ton.
Thus far the Iowa Republicans can
travel IN company with their party
brethren. and if they stick to the text
OF that resolution there is hope for
their complete regeneration after
some of their leaders have been rele-
gated to the rear.
The Iowa convention was in com
plete control OF Senators Cummins
and Dolliver and only a perfunctory
recognition was given the admins
tration of President Taft, while Col
onel Roosevelt was exalted in the
keynote speech Of Cummins.
The situation in Iowa is easily ex-
planned. Ever since the organization
Of the Republican party in 1856 the
Hawkeye voters have followed its for
tunes, and during the fifty-four years
OF its existence the state has fur
nished many Of its leaders.
AS indicated by the resolutions OF
the Des Moines convention, the Re
pubHcans of Iowa have not lost faith
in the cardinal principles Of Repub-
licanism as embodied in the pro-
tective tariff law. They have no
more faith in Democratic promises or
performances than they ever had.
Simmered down to a fine point it
seems that the Iowa Republicans
have been led astray by the vaulting
ambition of Senator Cummins, who
used his influence as governor in a
vain effort TO snatch the senatorial
toga from the shoulders Of the much
loved Allison.
At that time Mr. Cummins was
able TO erect a political machine
strong enough to accomplish his pur-
pose Immediately following the death
Of Senator Allison. The machine was
so strong, in fact, that Senator Dol
liver was compelled TO go back upon
a long and honorable career as a leg
islator and follow in the wake of the
victorious Cummins.
As a matter of fact, the Republi-
cans Of Iowa have no grievance
against the Republican party. Their
present insurgent attitude is entirely
due TO the efforts Of Senator Cum
Minis to lead in matters where he
should follow and to Delivers aero
battle feats during the last session OF
| Congress.
The attempt TO belittle President
Taft's wise and conservative admin
/ istration was unworthy the Repub-
/ lican party of Iowa, and when the re-
action comes. as it surely will come
/ the leaders themselves win be
ashamed that they countenanced it,
There is one pleasing feature about
the political situation in Iowa. and
| that IS that under no circumstances
will the majority of the voters con-
/ sent 10 turn the state over to the
/ Democratic free traders.

in the race. Denver and other cities
