SPECIMENS OF CRAFTSMANSHIP

= y
We are informed that statesman
ship, not politics, zeal for the right,
not petty spite, the goddess of reform,
not the demon of revenge, were the
controlling factors at the late republi-
can state convention.
1t was doubtless craftsmanship
which refused to allow a picture of
President Taft to be part of the dec
oratiOns of the convention hall. It
was love of reform which prompted
the senators to refrain in their speech
esi from mentioning either the presi-
dent of their country or the governor
of their state while lauding themselves
to the skies. It was zeal for the right
which led the insurgent delegates to
jeer and boot and shout so that the
minority report of the resolutions com.
mittee could not even be read before
the convention. While it was petty
spite which impelled the five hundred
stalwarts to sit quietly and allow the
majority report to be read and pre-
sented. 1t was love Of justice which
probably impelled the leaders of the
majority to propose to disfranchise the
/ districts, proposal which was so un
fair and SO suicidal that the rank ant
file of their own faction compelled it.
withdrawal 1t was republicanisn
which led to the open denunciation o
the party and the PRONUNCIATION of
platform which can mean nothing blu
i democratic success. Yes, 'it was
great uplift,' as the man said. whel
he was seasick.

been entirely at peace with himself

the republican party and began chas-5

Come back, Uncle Jim, all too long
you have fiirted
With parties that brought you TO

Come back to the virtuousI home you

And try to restore your good name.

Come back to the party Of good repu-

Among all true women and men;
Come back to the party that once

And gladly would do it again.

storms to suffer
You know you are not very strong
So, let me repeat it, come back you

At THE TAIL OF THE CART.

When the Roman conqueror
marched in triumph through the
streets of the eternal city one of the
chief features of the glad procession
was the captive chieftain, loaded with
chains and tied to Tie chariot of vic
tory. Nor was this feature lacking at
Des Moines. There were the usual
shouts of triumph as the frantic hosts
paid tribute to their idol, the victor
ious chief. And then another shout
went up. A shout of fierce joy. The
captive chief stood bound before them.
In derision they had placed q chap
let on his brow, his robes were robes
of victory, but his hands were chained.
Silent and with bowed heads stood the
ranks of his old tribesmen, the men
who had followed his battle cry on
many fair-fought field. Silent they
stood, sorrow filled their hearts, and
not sorrow alone, but shame that this
their leader was not a prisoner of war,
but weak deserter whose heart had
:
turned to water and who for the sake
of the wreath of faded laurels which
he wore, had denounced and combat
ted those with whom he had fought
for so many years. 1t was a pitiful
scene. Now and again the mighty
captive seemed to dream that the
cheering was for him Tho mn sci Va
shoulders Strengthened, the old smile
came to his face. the fire of battle
cleaned in his eye. But it was only
for an instant, one look into the SET
faces of the old guard. one glance at
the mocKing. mining crowd that
danced about him must have told the
STORY even to his dazed dulled brain
that he was a part Of the rejoicing
only as he reflected glory upon his con
queror. 81

a GREAT BALANCE SHEET.

Omaha Bee: The treasury report
which the government discloses for
the fiscal year just ended shows a total
deficit over all, including Panama
canal expenditures and the public
debt, of $25, 700, as compared with
$11S, 7O5, 900 one year ago. This is a
wonderful improvement in finances
and seems all. but incredible for one
years time. It is made possible by a
tremendous increase in receipts and a
heavy cut In expenditures. Our treas
ury receipts for this year exceeded
those Of the year before by more than
$66, 10000. One year ago there, was
an excess of disbursements of $50, OOO,-s
900. The government is paying its
bills and is rapidly getting down to a
practical cash basis, meeting every
emergency as it arises and read justing
the national finances on the soundest
possible basis.
The criticism is made that enlarged
receipts do not always mean sounder
condition SO much as growth in pro-
ceeds from taxation. but an analysis
of the figures does not justify com
plant on this score. True, that of the
increased income, ST.. 1862, 900. is the
estimated revenue from the corpora
ton tax, but on the other hand Gus,
toms receipts have grown more than
s$32 900 900 and internal revenue re-
ceipts have gained about $2O,0OO,OOO,
and there has been 4 tremendous saw
ing in the postal department.
It is the purpose of Secretary Mac
veagh, however, to proceed along
present lines until he has reached an
equilibrium not yet struck between in
come and outgo; he proposes to work
to that end on both sides Of the ledger.
The government readily distinguishes
between increased revenue from taxa
ton and greater economy of admins.
tration, realizing that the former must
represent deduction from private
profit and affect every form of indus
| try to some extent. Therefore the
studious effort is to extend taxation
no further than the actual demands OF
the public business require. 1t will
soon be possible. with the treasury
showing such robust balance sheet
to relieve the pressure on certain
sources of income from taxation, and
an administration that has served the
people as faithfully as the present one
is doing may well be trusted to lool
out for that.
With all the steadily increasing
needs for money, complicating the de
mands upon our financiers at Wash
ington. the exhibit made at the end Of
this fiscal year stands out all the more
remarkable and ought to afford the
4 best assurance to the people that theil
interests are being scrupulously con
served.

, T.
dent Taft and his advisers have made
to fulfill the promises of the national
platform. and which have been in har-
mony with the declarations of this
convention"
This resolution which simply "damns
the president with faint praise" and
which was SO intended, was adopted
by a majority OF the convention and
the republicans of Iowa are asked to
endorse it.
The republican party was charged
with being under the domination of a
Leadership more concerned in swelling
the overgrown fortunes of their init
mate friends than in legislating for
the benefit of the people.
The record of the republican party
was either ignored or publicly con-
demned. 1t was the first time in the
history of the state of Iowa that re-
publican state convention refused to
endorse a republican president, a re-
publican administration and the rec
ord OF the republican party.
1t was the first time, and God grant
it may be the last, that republican
state convention in Iowa ever con-
demned the record of the republican
party.
The convention was not in session
for the purpose of endorsing Taft. his
administration or the legislation of the
publican party. It was there to en-
dorse and applaud the two United
States senators from Iowa, because
| they had bolted their party and voted
with the democratic party on import
liant measures affecting the welfare of
the country
The platform adopted by a major
lity Of the convention refused to recog-
lnize the right of the republican party
of the nation to determine what con-
stitutes republicanism, but reserved to
itself the right to determine this ques-
sItion.

hundred of his admirers who were pre-
4 pared to endorse anything he pro-
posed.

KAISER BREACHES
 4 GREAT DEAL But Does Not Always Practice What He Breaches YIELDS TO HIS FAMILY Joseph-FIorimund, Due de Loubat, Born In New York, Appears To Be the Only American Duke in
 the World
YIELDS TO HIS FAMILY

Paris, October 1.-(Special.)-Th Kaiser breaches a great deal. That he does not always practice what he breaches goes without saying. At the recent Ger man military maneuvers the Empress on horseback took a prominent part in the reviews. Still more recently the Princess Victoria Louise of Germany, at tired in the uniform of the Second Illus sars, led her regiment at full gallops, past the saluting base. And the grim Emperor-in fiat contradiction to his teaching that women should confine themselves to the cradle and the kitchen kissed his daughter in admiration and approval.
 Napoleon, as we all know, stoutly main tained that the greatest woman was she who bore the greatest number of chil- dren, and until recently the Kaiser said the same thing. He has always opposed women taking part in the great move ments of the world For the unhappy suffragette he has shown open disap proval, and yet, when 1t comes to his own particular family of women folk, he stands aside, valves his deep-rooted prejudices and comments whatever they may do.
 No wonder the German suffragette pro- tests. The Kaiser is the Kaiser, but even so, has he the right to apply one rule to his own wife and daughter and an- other to the wives and daughters of his subjects?

been found necessary to extend and improve the appliances at both yards for the construction of these great battle ships which, according to the latest in formation, are to have a displacement each of 23000 tons, with engines of 4, GOO horse power, and a speed of 23 knots. No details are as yet known as to their armour and armament. The construction of battleship in the Black Sea yards ordinarily occupies six months. There Is report current however that an ar rangement has been made with Louis Nixon, the noted American shipbuilder, to take general supervision of the work and to place expert American ship build CTS in direct charge, thus materially re- ducing the time of construction. It may be said that none of Russia's new navy will be built in foreign yards.
 There Is no truth in the statement cir culated in Paris declaring that the resig nation of M. Isvolsky the foreign minis ter, is imminent and that he is about to he appointed Russian Ambassador at Paris.
 Changes in the cabinet with the czar abroad and the premier M. Stolypin, in Siberia, are in the highest degree i'm probable at the present moment.
 Fresh appointments at the Embassies in Paris, Vienna and Berlin, may, how ever, be expected at the new year. It Is suggested that M. Kokovzeff, the Finance Minister, will go to Berlin.

A north erner climbed off train to stretch his legs, unscrewed the top of capsule and advancing on tiptoe. dusted ten grains of uuinine on the surface of the darkey's tongue. Presently the negro sucked his tongue back inside his mouth and in stantly arose with a start and looked about him wildly.

leuse scuiptured its marbles and paint ed it's allegorical figures The famous silver bathroom of the still more ia nous Paiva, with it's onyx, its rubies and it's Oriental mirrors, are still in the palace. For the "Phyrne' of the third empire had to leave Paris sud- denly--she was accused of being a Russian spy--and all her treasures were left behind. She fled in the dead of the night In panic of fear. She had good cause it seems, having been born in St. Petersburg and having large following among Russian refu- gees and revolutionists.
 This woman was of the humblest or- gin. Her husband was a tailor. She came to Paris in search of work. was introduced to the literary artistic set by the celebrated musician, Henry Hery; was beloved by Napoleon TIL, and became the wife of the Marquis de Paiva, Spanish nobleman. AS a wife, however, it must be admitted Paiva was not success; and the best proof l can offer to this statement is that one day her husband invited a distinguished company to dinner and blew out his brains in jealous rage of Napoleon III.-and others.
 After a discreet retirement La Paiva married a cousin of Bismarcks, the . Count Henckel de Donnersmark. first governor of Asace-Lorraine. She died in Silesia in 1884, having become very pious and devout. The palace which Ma poleon built for her-'tis said on the very spot where she once faited of hunger will make a magnificent mayors office. But let the young brides who go there to plight their troth beware, for the rest less spirit of the Paiva still haunts the place.
 Is AIphonso XIII about to lose his title of .srhe Most Catholic Majesty so proud iy worn by his predecessors, Charles V and Philip II? Is Spain to become na- tion of agnostics? There is no likelihood of either event. Prime Minister Cahalejos is quite as devout a Catholic as Cardinal Merry del Val But the prime minister realizes the importance of bringing Spain more in harmony with certain commercial and educational principles. It seems mil lions go annually to sustain the church, while only few thousand dollars are set aside for educational purposes. This dis tribution of Spain's money is not fair and Merry del Val knows 1t. He knows the church does not need six times more than the schools On the contrary the schools need six times more than the church. But there is a concordat between Spain and the vatican binding both parties. Hence If changes are to be made the vatican must consent. After all 1t is likely to be only
