Resolutions on the death Of
Abraham Boynton passed by the
Alpha Lodge No. I3o, A. F. e. A.
NJ, of Wegner, South Dakota,
June 10, 1911.
The hand of death has again

that land from whose bourne no

We realize that by his loss the
State has lost one of her most
prominent aud useful citizens;
our fraternity has lost one of its
, most active Conscientious MEM
! bers; his beloved wife and family
4 -EE4EF
! have lost a most affectionate
husband and father; his daily life
! in the community in which he
lived was an inspiration to his
tfellowmcn to be better husbands,
fathers and citizens; his daily life
and conduct was an exemplifca-
ton of all that is pure and noble
in manhood: he was one of
! natures noblemen and it can
truly be said of him that the
world was better for him having
lived in It."
On behalf of Alpha Lodge No.

Brother Boynton was a charter
member, your committee would

NO DANGER OF PISTOLS.

Dubuque Times-Journal: Lafe
Young, of the Des Moines Capital,
and Editor Hunter, of the Webster
City Freeman-Tribune. are reviving
militant journalism in their respec-
tive towns. The editorial utteran-
ces of each have almost reached the
stage that brings Partisan or Ha-
vana editors together with pistols or
rapiers. The Capital is taking poll
of the editors of the state to ascer-
tain how they stand on Taft and La
Toilette and because the Webster
City Freeman-Tribune commented
on this journalistic advertising cam
paign Col. Lafe has grown indig-
nant and writes harshly, not neg
lecting to inject a circulation boost
in his reply.

CUMMINS AND TAFT.

Waterloo Courier: While 1t may
be true that Iowa wants Cummins az
its candidate for president, it does
not want him for the purpose of de-
feating Taft but for the purpose OF
elevating it's able senator to the
great and honorable responsibility
of the presidency. And right here
it may as we'll be said that there is
no ADLER, no more democratic or
more trustworthy presidential posi-
bility in the United States than our
Cummins. He possesses an alertness
and political sense that Taft will
never have; he has knowledge Of
legislative matters and conditions
that excels that of the president; he
has battle-scarred front that fits
him for many hard battles to come,
and sympathy with the common
people which is very hard to find in
men of the Taft class of training.
He has criticised the president, in.
some cases without warrant, we be-
lieve, but has never been guilty OF
such untrues and insincere attacks
as that made in the senate this sum-
mer by LaFOllette.

One Killed: Two Injured.

Charlton, Sept. 15.--One man was
killed and two were injured by the
collapse Of temporary trestle two
miles north of here yesterday after
noon on the Kansas City C St. Paul
Short line which is being built by
the Rock Island road. The men were
employees of the Donald Jeffries Con-
struction company and were engaged
in pushing car Of dirt over the
trestle when the crash came. An
drew Anderson fell under the car
and was crushed to death almost in
stantly. His companions. both Of
the name Of John Miller, though not
related, were seriously injured, one
Of them probably fatally. They
were brought to a hospital in this
city. The body Of Anderson was
brought to an undertaking shop,
where an inquest will be held to-
day,

We wonder If there is any public
man today who would ccncede that
two honest men could differ on a
public question such as reciprocity,
and still both be honest in their
convictions, and neither tied to the
eastern corporations or playing to

ency, asks the Mason City Times.

over"
sTf Roosevelt just keeps on the
anti-side of arbitration with the
great powers, it is certain to go
through" says the WaterlooTimes-
Tribune.
.'He has high mission and
great opportunity in his present
work and we doubt if he will sub
ject himself to the uncertainties and
vexations of seeking political Office"
says the Marengo Republican, re-
ferring to the talk of Harvey Ing
ham for the governorship.
eff LaFollette,' says the Mason
City Globe-Gazette, "has not given
his personal pledge to a number of
the insurgent leaders that he will
be a candidate, but will wait till
congress convenes, he has commit
ted the objectionable sin of put
ting some of his colleagues out on
an island and then running away
with the boats"
The Des Moines Register and
Leader says that with two more ses-
sions of democratic congress ahead
of him, the president may be able to
get pretty close to Grover Cleve-
lands veto record.
The Marshalltown Times-Republi-
can says that President Taft will
necessarily travel fast if he loses
LaFollette.
The Cedar Rapids Gazette says
that when an unsuccessful appli-
cant for a federal Office becomes
bitter opponent of the president. the
natural deduction is that politics is
a great game.

When the men who were impli-
Gated in the shooting of Guard Ham
aker at Anamosa were arrested in
Canada on the serious charge of
shooting an officer, one of them gave
as an excuse that our legislators
permitted whisky to be sold and
somebody had to drink it, declaring
himself one of the guys who drink.
OF course that is very poor excuse.
1t is said a poor excuse is bet
ter than none, but in this case
none would be just as good. That
man didn't have to drink whisky ev-
en- though it were for sale on every
corner and his attempt to saddle re-
sponsibility upon legislators is cow
ardly and far-fetched. Beattie, just
convicted of wife-murder in Vir-
ginia, tries to exculpate his crime by
seeking shelter behind the Influence
of woman who had him within
her grasp. Beattie had no business
to place himself in that position.
Had he respected his marital vows,
the most sacred man can take, he
would now be happy. But he chose
the dual life. Sought to deceive the
woman he trusted and finally sought
to get her out of the way by MUIR
dering her. Buelah Binford is not
responsible for the downfall OF
Beattie. He lackedSforce of charac-
ter and was overwhelmed by pref
Ity face and form and submitted to
his infatuation. Both criminals. the
one who blames whisky for his
downfall and the one who attempts
to hold young girl responsible, la
mentally lack in the elements of
manhood. The world has no pa
thence with their excuses and holds
them both in deserved contempt. Let
the law have its course and let the
miserable examples Of humanity be

why didn't he file information
against the doctors? Had he caught
some insignificant person violating
the quarantine or fumigation rules
he would have been quick enough in
starting prosecutions. 1t is just such
favoritism as Capt. WEIGH is guilty
of, according to his own statement,
that is creating dissatisfaction
among the people.
Is Senator Kenyon posing when
he refuses pay for Chautauqua adj
dresses? Hasn't he a message worth
something, and if worth something
and the people want to pay him for
his work, why not accept it? Ken
Won has considerable of the boy in
him yet.-Coon Rapids Enterprise. .
There you have it. When men
like Cummins and LaFollette make
Chautauqua addresses for pay they
are charged with being grasping and
being out for the coin. 1t is even
intimated that they create political
strife for advertising purposes in or
der that they may draw more people
to the Chautauqua and thus get
more money. 1t is damned If you
do and damned if you don't. To es-
cape the charge of demagogue and
grandstander one must go over body
and soul to the service of the corr
porations.
The Epworth League of Fort
Dodge has passed resolutions con-
demning Secretary James Wilson.
for accepting the honorary chairman
ship of the National Brewers con-
gress which meets in Chicago next
month. They have sent copy of
the resolutions to President Taft,
which are as follows: Resolved,
that we deeply deplore the recent
action of Secretary Wilson in accept
ing the honorary presidency of the
International Brewers congress to
meet in Chicago this coming Octo-
Der and further urge that you, for
the sake of our public honor, use
your influence in securing his i'm
mediate withdrawal from the same"
When President Taft receives this
message he will no doubt think OF
the time when a certain president
and a certain ex-president, now both
living, sent congratulations to
Adolphus Busch, the leading brewer
of the world, upon the occasion OF
his DlrCnudy. AS MI. ldlI uiHu
goes back to that instance he may
come to the very wise conclusion
that it would be somewhat of deli
cate task for him to breach the sub
ject of Secretary Wilson's favors to
the Brewers association. The Fort
Dodge Epworth League should have
sent the resolutions direct to Secre-
tary Wilson. He will never hear of
them unless he gets his information
through other than presidential
channels.

Gated in the shooting of Guard Ham

We note that the various towns OF
Iowa are yanking up automobile
speeders for exceeding the speed
limit. One man in Des Moines was
recently arrested for going forty-five
miles an hour. But for double
quick action no one has yet APP
preached the record of Col. Young
when he Topped from the side Of the
Oregon plan clear across the hust-
ings and lit in mudpuddle on the
other side of the fence. 1t even beat
the acrobatic feat of this self-same
statesman who hot-footed it from
the Office of the governor, where he
received the appointment to the sem
ate, to the camp of the special prim-
airy advocates. making the entire
distance in something like mil
lionth part of second-more or
less.
