Growing Grapes.
The grape is the easiest grown OF all
our fruits. any good land in Iowa is
suitable for grape-growing Fifty years
ago. we had but few kinds of grapes.
The Isabella and the Clinton were the
first varieties that planted. Now we
have great many varieties and new
kinds are being produced and intro
duced ever year. The perfect grape is
being sought by many amateur hori-
culturists.

MR. COUSINS ADDRESS ON DolLIvER.

Robert G. Cousins, former congress-
man from this district and one Of the
notable orators of his age. delivered a
memorial address on Senator Dolliver
before the Iowa legislature yesterday.
1t was a magnificent opportunity with
a magnificent subject. time when the
memories of close friendship and as
ISOLATION and contemplation OF a great
man departed might crowd from
heart to lip in a tribute which should
touch and satisfy those OF every po
litical creed. party and faction: for
man, representative Iowan and a
splendid type OF American manhood.
Il was day when Earring political
differences were lost and forgotten
get green. pausing in deep respect and
sincere appreciation of leader and
lover of men. At such a time and in
such a place party and faction become
petty things and personal bitterness
worse than folly. The day is for an
open mind and the opportunity is the
opportunity of true greatness.
Mr. Cousins address reads well. If
it We're to be balanced against some OF
his former speeches it would suffer by
comparison but there is in it the elo-
quent power OF expression. the beauty
of diction and the splendid march Of
noble sentences which marx the man
and gave him MS national standing as
an orator,
But the address was disappointing.
1t lacked the heighth and breadth Of
the man and the service il memorial
lied. Spoken and written it sought to
bolster faction while it eulogized a
man whose highest fame will rest-as
the fame of every name which endures
beyond its day rests-upon forgerful-
ness Of faction and REM rn brance Of the
common rights of man. To attempt TO
"fasten the fame" OF Dolliver 20 his
earlier years is to futter the rags OF
oratory in the face Of cyclone. To ig-
more his last and creates service is TO
sheer at the elemental
1t is pity that Mr.. Cousins failed
to rise to his opportunity e. pity-not
for Dolliver, whose fame is secure
but for Mr.. Cousins. For Bob Cousins
Is one Of the few men who might have
framed the mighty memory of Iowa's
great senator in a luminous halo Of
golden speech

1T is indeed a surprise that the gov
ernor of Iowa has to issue a formal
statement declaring that he wrTr111tes
every word of his message vetoing the
Oregon plan bill" saws the Davenport
Times. "The performance is an ad-
mission that the governor believes that
people might think there was some
ground for the suggestions made by
some newspapers, that he did not write
the message. It was imrnaterial wheth-
er he wrote it or not: he presented it
as his action and must accept either
praise or blame for it,"
