Two-CENr FARES IN IOWA.
[Rockford Resisterl

j.
While no definite announcement has
been made relative to the matter. ii is
likely that following the lead of several
states Iowa railroads will also try 20
knock out 2-cent fares. However. the
cold truth is that with the exception of
two or three second class lines, the
railroads of the state have had larger
receipts under the 2-eent fare regime
than they did under a nominal Scent
fare. when third or more OF all pas
sengers they carried were riding for
little or nothing. And il is question
able if the old rake We're restored
whether there would not be an actual
loss in passenger revenues as com
pared with the interval during which
the e-cent fare prevailed. 1t is a con-
viction that is gaining strength in the
minds OF a good many that for the
railroads to go back to the. old rate
when the passage OF the .anti-pass law
and enactment OF the new rate has
made it possible to get rid Of a whole
lot of dead head traffic, would not only
be bad business but even worse poll
tics.

THE MODERN WAY.


A good many years ago in the from
tier towns it was the practice of the
cowboys and bad men to come into
town and shoot it up" That is they
rode up and down the streets shooting
at signs. sometimes at windows and
occasionally at men. 1t was done to
attract attention to the person doing
the stunt. Civilization stopped all that.
but it developed something else. and
almost as bad. Now when a fellow
wants people to notice him and fails
in other ways he goes flying thru town
in an auto with the muller cutout
open. making almost as much and
quite as disagreeable noise as the
cowboy did with the revolver There is
no more sense to the last than was 10
the first. either. and sometime 1t viii
he stopped by law and police regula-
ton. The large cities now are after the
cut -out fiends," and they will be put
out of business. When II becomes
fully understood that The higher grade
and more costly car Is the less noise
it will make there will be less Of the
kind of display. for no one will want
TO advertise that he Is running
cheap car.

many people 10 sheer nonsense. The
poor and miserable folks VIII be with
us always, and you can't do q thing
for them. Reform, bahl Helping peo-
pie by legislation. bah This was the
substance Of his tsik. Yet he seemed
to forget that the grand old party, Of
which he was 90 proud. would never
have come into existence had 1t not
been for the wave Of reform that
swept the country in the late sos.
The great mission Of the party was
to strike the shackies from the poor
slaves. and he who says that reform at
this day is bosh, and chat nothing can
be done for the poor and downtrodden.
simply repudiates the principal tenet
Of the republican party. If it was
reform and progressive party in 1860
1t should be reform and progressive
party in 1911, because the I United
Sta ties Of America is not at stand
stin. and the party can not afford to
rest on its laurels, because stagnation
is death.

Ihe argument that the products of

With farms in the states 10 the detri-
nent of the latter in articles in which
both compete. is both conclusive and
sound But the steel trust. the har-
vester trust and the beef trust are SELL

ducts outside the country than the

difference in the cost of production

that with the Guggenheims out Of it
this great country lies a helpless hulk
on the rock bound shores OF fanatical
conservation. The government has
opened up great areas Of arid land in
the west In recent years in the face Of
opposition from the Guggenheim class
and if given a little time il may be pos
sible for the government to arrange for
the opening of Alaska coal fields in a
manner which will avoid monopoly and
insure a square deal The policy OF
the Guggenheims Is the policy OF d.

which the people of this country have

Let Secretary Fisher have a free
hand and the chances are that before
he has expended as much energy as
Ballinger exerted to hold the Cunning
nam claims for his clients a plan will
be devised which will insure the de-
velopment OF Alaska coal lands and
that will also insure a square deal to
all concerned.

THE DERs' OUTLOOK.
IMonticelo ExpressJ.

Monticello ExpresS].
The drought prevailing in the arid
homestead regions OF western South
Dakota is Simply recurrence of con-
ditions long recognized by those famil-
lar with the land and climate for
generation or more. The past few
years have been exceptional to such a
degree az to attract people anxious for
home and the independence that
land ownership gives. Thousands OF
such people without avera ging the
meteorological conditions of half a
century have looked no further back
than the exceptional half dozen years
of ample rainfall. and now when two
dry years come in succession they are
forced to abandon their GLAZING. There
is going to be a halt in the attempted
homestead development Of the arid
plains of western South Dakota. Those
who are able to hang on and live thru
the dry seasons will be able to reap
the rewards OF the good seasons that
are bound TO come. Failures are dis
couraging. however. and a few OF
them will soon wipe out the profits OF
the coed seasons- This is not saving
that there are not some sturdy people
who still have faith in the arid stretch"
and who believe that they can demon
strate the productiveness Of the coun-
try by the intelligent application OF
approved methods Of dry farming.

MAY DIE FROM HIS WOUNDS
Negro Who Cut Wife's Throat Is

DR.. Gardner says the shot took effect
in the knee, thigh side and back of
the negro.
Harris was put on a wagon
and brought to Dawson, arriving
