'The purpose OF the work of the
Methodist Association in Rome is con-
fessed openly. The means employed ara
by no means honorable. They take
every advantage Of the poverty of the
people of Rome. The books circulated
and displayed in the windows of their
book stores are SANDERS against the
Catholic faith, the Holy Pontiff at
Rome, and Misrepresentation of the
whole Catholic system. The success OF
the movement is far from adequate to
the efforts put forth and the money ex-
pended. They do not make permanent

sibly dettach pupils from the Catholic
church, and this means from all

The Boston Pilot says of the Amer

BASEBALL DOPE.
IOcheydan Press.1


What's the difference il it does blow
and howl around the old corners? Isn't
the good old ball season Just around
the bend? Isn't every town that's large
enough to organize nine husky players,
going to fight it out among themselves
who is going to pitch? You bet. Near
~ everybody knows how TO pitch. Did
You ever know that? We remember
the springtimes of other days when
the grass began to turn green how the
thoughts of boys would turn to base
ball After arguing thru the greater
part of April and May as to whether
it was best to have nine pitchers or on
~ one they finally got started by hiring
Il crack twirler from another township
who could chew gum and double up like
a jack knife and throw double shoot
all at the same time. And If YOU never
heard them argue the umpres decis-
ions then you have missed something
a little better than a circus. Everybody
talks and swears at the same time. and
before difficulties are settled the home
team has every man. woman and child
in the immediate neighborhood telling
everybody else just how 1t all hap
pened. Oh. yes. basebaD is great. 1t is
great enough TO start a steamboat-llke
whistle from the throat of the fellow
who was laid up all winter with astf-
ma, 1t is great enough to start in a
minute row that will take until after
ilaying to settle. II is great enough TO
make the most dignified. particular and
sedate young lady jump up and down
and hug herself all over when her
curly headed beau makes home run
in the ninth with the teams tied. 1t
is great enough to last all summer and
to be talked about all winter But
most of the fun is tied up in the little
teams that play in cattle pastures and
are untainted by commercialism.

It is no place for any but a student of

Mental Microbes.

We need protection against the NIL

against those to which the body is ex-
posed. Plenty OF fresh air, good food.
cheerfulness and exercise will go a
great ways to preserve our physical
health. Against decisions, to which the
mind is exposed, the remedy is neither
so accessible nor so plentiful. There are
more impaired minds than sick bodies.
and there are fewer people who can
teach us how to be sane than there
are healers OF the body. II it is pleas
ure to have body sound in every part
it must be a privilege to have mind
without dark spot in it. Common
sense is the great preserver OF the
health OF the mind.
Fortunately we do not need to be
philosophers, university graduates. in
order to possess common sense. Phil
osophers are sometimes more deficient
in this wholesomest of all articles than
laymen. Common sense is superior to
learning, and books can not give it. It
is the faculty thought has of hitting
the bulls eye. But common sense is,
unfortunately, quite an uncommon
thing. It is so difficult to think straight.
It is with great difficulty that children
learn how to think; bu most people go
to their graves without having learned
how to think.

association ought not to be civilized.
This term he is understood to use
anonymously with christianize. He

have no religion, but believe in evil

that their '.aftAr- world" is distinctly q
material one. He adds:

I want to say again. that hope no
efforts will ever be made to civilize
them. Such efforts. II successful, would
destroy their primitive communism,
which is necessary to preserve their
existence. Once give them an idea OF
real estate interest and personal prop
erty rights in houses and food, and
they would become as selfish as civil

AS TO WALTER I. SMITH.
TGlidden Graphic.1


1t was Smiths standpat proclivities
that brought him into conflict with
Theodore Roosevelt. He was opposed
to the strenuous presidents progress
sive program. Smith wanted to let
well enough alone. The republican
party was in power-republicans held
all the offices. In the mind of the
old school politician. the chief aim of
party organization is to hold the Of
fees. The newer school-represented
by such men as Roosevelt and Hughes
are party men, but their aim is to
regard the party as mere instrument
tahty thru which better laws and bet
ter administration may be secured. The
party, in their mind deserves support
only as ii makes itself an instrument
for correcting wrongs and dealing out
justice. Smith is q Cannon lieutenant.
He is a member in good standing Of
the house oligarchy. The mission OF
this oligarchy is to deal with the con-
flicting interests that beset congress.
giving to each as much as possible
without arousing the ire of the people,
and doing out to the people such frag-
mentary pieces Of legislation as will
serve as a premise from which to Sc
cure reelection.

ton prevails that whatever is right is

| republican With the older ideal. what
ever the Washington oligarchy pro-
| nounced republican was republican
and all else was spurious. The con-
tinued ascendancy of the party de-
ponds upon the wisdom displayed in
the choice of ideals. The Smiths and
the Cannons, epersonally clean and hon.
est thou they may be. are welded to
ideals the pursuit of which will wreck
any party in this age of ever pressing

Byers, there would be little difference
which represented the district in con-
gress. Politically, there is a wide diff
ference Smith stands for a republic
canism no longer approved by a ma

! ideals approved by a large maiority.
If the party would retain its hold on
| the reins of government, Byers is the
man who should be chosen.

AN oTTuMwA VIEW.


The Review is taken to task for the
little editorial last evening in which
was stated that at the good roads con-
vention next week some farmer would
doubtless rise and state that in his
opinion the proposed $20.000,000 appre-
priation for the Des Moines river i'm
provement would be better used in bet
terment of the post roads of the state.
This is what may be expected. Where
one farmer residing along the river
will urge national appropriation for
the river Iowa will witness 100 next
week expressing belief that such an
immense amount of money would serve
the public to greater benefit IL dis
.tributed to the ninety-nine counties for
making better wagon roads. This
would mean 100000 for, each and
every county.
Perhaps congress will pass appropri-
alton bills for both purposes, possibly
