STRIKE OUT THE NINE,

Today we start all over. 1t is new
year. a big new year following a pro-
cession of big years. The common con-
ception of the New Year as a child will
not fill the bill. The year that arrived
today arrived full grown, awkward per-
haps, because of its environment and
the strangeness but able to do a days
work
Last year accomplished great things.
There is no need to count them over
they are done, accomplished, out of the
way, most of them. From the first of
January to midnight last night the
past year was busy, packed with
wonders of invention, commerce, dis
covery, crime, charity and the million
activities of time. 1t is gone. 1t is
yesterday. Let it go.
Look ahead and not back How the
things to do, the marvels to be &C
complished, crowd out of the future.
There is no time for looking backward.
This is a busy time We are making
history in these fieeting years that the
past took centuries to create. We have
begun to fly where our grandfathers
crept. A day is a lifetime. Minutes
are precious. Hurry, hurry, lest one
be lost.
How long is this pace to last? How
long can we hold it? With all our ac-
complishment we have not vet become
as gods Are our shoulders broadening
to the added load and our backs grow
ing strong to lift the added burdens
Can we live life year and bear the
strain?
One of the best resolves the American
people could make for today would be
to check the pace. But if it did it
! would meet the fate of too many New
Year resolutions-the world is carry
ing on, setting the pace, neither ma
| tons nor individuals can lag except a,
their own peril.
\ Strike out the and write it 1910
Get in line for the big rush. Ready
set. Go!

insisting that the republican party in
Iowa progresses and they are the men
who put the railroad pass out of busi-
ness, who put the direct primary in
place of the manipulated caucus and
convention and they are the men who
put the 2-cent fare law on the statute
books. Their principal guest Of honor
will be Senator Cummins, the man
who led a seven years fight against
a powerful political machine, who
served as governor for three terms and
won a national reputation as an execu-
tive. Today he is leader of the same
progressive movement in national poll
tics; a movement to substitute the
public interest in place of special pri-
vate interest in governmental affairs.
1t may be looked upon as gather
ing of good fellowship, a jollification
meeting but it will result in some i'm
petuate the progressive impulses of the
republican party in Iowa. For instance
the attorney general who instituted the
removal law in Iowa and who has es-
tablished in this state reign of law
enforcement such as no state has ever
known, is going to run for congress
sional nomination against an incumbent
who stands on the Cannon rules COM
mittee in congress supporting vicious
system whereby coterie can run down
and ride over all individual effort to
serve the public good and move with
the destruction of juggernaut at the
will of one crafty and cunning leader.
Then the fearless and able lawyer who
was promoted from attorney generals
assistant to state senator in order that
the Byers law reform bills might be
enacted under competent supervision
is to run for the attorney generals po-
sition. There is effective aid to good
government in all these things and the
banquet has not yet been held. There
is vet more to be heard.

cry:

For her round ankles were extended
from beneath her gown, and on the

great gold snake with ruby eyes. On

Tea and coffee are very harmful bev-

been taken. says a well known dieti-
tan. This is what we call stimula-

have been acted upon so that we feel
refreshed. although we have received
no real strength such as comes TO us
from food. When children's nerves
are abused in this way they will be
irritable and weak and apt to become

the heart and is dangerous if the heart

LADY CONSTANCE IS
CUT OFF LIST

London, Feb. 3.-Lady Constance
Stewart Richardson, whose barefoot
dance has drawn thousands to local
music hall may bask in the radiance
of the royal presence. Although she
has been favorite of King Edward,
she has been commanded never to ap-
pear before him again because she
persisted in appearing in diaphanous
drapries for her $1,000 a week.
When the royal edict was delivered
70 the titled exponent of the barefoot
terpsichorean art, she collapsed.
Later she even attempted to cancel
her contract with the music hall. it
was reported, but was informed that
such course would not serve to lift
the kingly ban.
It was whispered here today that
the king first became displeased with
Lady Constance when, after conclud-
ing her salome lance for him, She
dropped to her knees before him and
said:
''Sir, give me the head OF Sir Earn
est Cassel."
Sir Earnest is the official advisor of
| the king and is known to be favorite
with him.
