Reduction from 5000 saloons in 1906

! would still further reduce the number

business men and manufacturers OF
the state thru the power Of their COR
poration organization have discovered

sort to politics.

THE CAUCUS IN LEGISLATION.
[Kossuth County Advanced.

Senator Curmins declared in the
senate the other day that no party
caucus could be held to bind him from
voting as his judgm ent OF the right
dictated in matters Of principle,
This was Geciara Ton Of inGepend-
ence worth while. Caucuses may be
probably are-very proper methods
Of dispcsing quickly Of immateriai
questions but they overstep their
limits when they attempt to bind
members of any legislative body to
vote in disregard Of the better juGg-
rent Of such members ar TO material
matters. In such ca ses caucuses are
usually merely devices to create legis-
lative nlajorities out Of legislative mi
norities. Thev are then vicious instru-
monts Of governr ent Quite often they
are based upon other caucuses until in
the end a SINAI! ring or single Boss
Murphy Is discovered. controlling leg
islation by means never contemplated
in any sane scheme OF representative
government.
The fathers had no conception os the
modern caucus theory oe congressional
or legislative government. On the
contrary they expected the congress
and the several state legisla lures Of
this country to be real legisla tive bod
les. Their theory was best. 1t should
be the aim today Of every truly repre-
sentative body to live UP to this ideal.
1t is cause fo- countrywide congratu-
lat!on that progressive lea dcrs in con-
gross and elsewhere have the coura ge
to insist upon q return to our earlier
practices in this particular. The
movement should continue until no
saIfrespecting republican Or dsiIocrat
will consent to destroy his constitu-
tional usefulness as legislator by
binding himself in caucus to espouse
important courses Of action to which
he is not personally committed by his
best judgment of what is right and
expedient.

eREELEY's BOLD REPLY.

Horace Greeley was at all times
forceful. He opposed the extension Of
slavery and preached strongly his
views. He said to let the erripg
brothers depart in peace when seces-
sion came. But when war was declar-
ed, he was for war, unrelentilg until
the issue was decided in the unions
favor. When this result came the
great editor was for restored amity.
He went to Richmond and signed the
bail bond Of jefferson Davis. This
brought upon his head the most ex-
treme denunciation. The old man
never quavered. lie stood his ground
bravely. AS an instance. may be re-
called the proposal to expel him from
the Union League club, strongly parti-
san and sectional, as its name implies.
Mr.. Greeley was invited to be present
and answer the charges He declined
the invitation, but sent the following
letter.
Il shall not attend your meeting

heads who would like to be useful to

cause Of human kind. your children

It is for want of self-culture that ths

= Italy. England. Egypt. retains its
fascination for all educated Americans.
They who made Italy. England. or
Greece venerable in the imagination
did so by sticking fast where they
were. like an axis of the earth. In
manly hours. we feel that duty is our
place. The soul is no traveller: the
wise man stays at home. and when
his Necessities, his duties. on any oc-
oaslon call him from his house, or in
to ioreign lands. he Is at home still,
and shall make men sensible by the
EXPRESSION of his countenance, that he
goes the missionary of wisdom and vir-
tue. and visits cities and men like
a sovereign. and not like an interloper
or a Emerson.
