Moreover, the expense of govern
ment would have been decreased
and the efficiency of the house ad-
vanced by cutting down the mem
bership.
The Freeman-Tribune wants to So
on record as predicting that land in
Hamilton county now valued at
500 to $3.50 per acre, will be valu-
ed at 5000 and $500 per acre before
1920. There is no place on Gods
green footstool where the soil is SUI
perior to this right here in central
Iowa and no place where an abund-
ance of rainfall is more certain
The whole United States is coming
to realize that for diversified agri-
cultural purposes no state compares
with Iowa.
Speaking of the timothy seed crop
this year, a West Liberty paper tells
of farmer in that vicinity who
made over $500 off twenty acres
sown to that grass. He sold $603.04
worth of seed and kept $S2.75 worth
of seed for his own use and he sold
the straw, or hay, for $3.50, making
sS05.79 in all, as the proceeds 81
twenty acres of land, or more than
$40 an acre. A few years ago he
bought his land for that much per
acre, but at the present time it is
worth probably 5000 an acre.
When the time comes that the
United States is an importer of the
staples of the farm the farmers will
be entitled to the same measure OF
protection that other industries
have, and he will get it. But for
years this country has been an ex-
porter and when Senator Clapp, Mel.
son, Cummins and McCumber said
two years ago, when the Payne-Al-
drich tariff bill was under consid-
Grafton, that protection was of nc
direct benefit to the agricultural in
terests they stated fact recognized
by nearly all who are students OF
markets rather than maxims." As
time goes on this situation may
change and the farmers will get all
the protection they need.
The New York World is fighting
the nomination of Gov. Wilson for
president. The World is regarded
as the leading democratic paper OF
the Empire state and while its OPP
position will weaken Mr.. Wilson in
New York it ought to strengthen
him in other parts of the country.
The World is standpat democratic
paper and is not in sympathy with
popular movements. 1t declares
that Wilson cannot win without
New York. Perhaps he can't, but
Grover Cleveland did in the nation
al convention in 1892. and Mr..
Cleveland carried New York at the
general election following his nomi-
nation, but he would have been
elected just the same without the
vote of his home state.

Queries have been sent from New
York to all of the governors of the
states asking their views on the de-
STABILITY of uniform divorce legis-
lation. Quite large number OF
governors have replied and every
one favors uniformity, either by ma
tional legislation or by general en-
actments by the various state legis-
latures. 1t seems to the Freeman
Tribune that a national statute
would be the better way to deal with
this vexed question. When a rich
man can go to Nevada and get a
divorce, as A. D. Clark of Algona
did, without his wife knowing any
thing about it, it is time to seek
some effective remedy to protect
men and women in their marital re-
lations. This divorce question is be-
coming one of the serious problems
of the age and grows in seriousness
as wealth increases and men decay
Money is debauching manhood and
womanhood and it is the exception
to find a sturdy, honorable and clean
man or a pure and virtuous woman
among the excessively rich. There
is something about the possession OF
millions that destroys character,
dwarfs manhood and corrpts chas-
tity.

Gov. Carroll uses that Shorter

Hon. David Brant's latest attack up
on the Fort Madison penitentiary
management. But sometimes the
provocation is great and possibly the
governor is justified. But if Mr.
Brant can sustain his charges he
will saddle the "uglier word upon
the governor. The fight is getting
somewhat interesting.

George Pettus Raney
Is Dead.

Another native son of Florida and
one who contributed in many ways to
the states welfare is gone. Judge
Raney is dead.
Last Sunday, among his friends and
surrounded by his children whom he
loved so dearly; an in the state where
he had labored so earnestly, George
Pottus Raney departed from this life.
He held many places OF honor,
finally reaching the position Of chief
Justice of the supreme court, where
he did valuable service to his state.
As attorney general he disting uished
himself, and in the work of the recon
struction days he was found fighting
IN the front ranks to overthrow negro
and carpetbag rule.
In many ways Judge Raney has
been shining light in Florida history,
and his memory will ever remain
green in the hearts and minds of those
who knew his true worth. His imme-
date family are not alone in mourning
his death, for thousands of hearts
have been made sad by the news Of
his demise.

The Second Primary
Should Not Be Held.

William A. Blount led the ticket by
sich a plurality in the primary cleo.

the next highest man to demand the
second primary.

Gates that Mr.. Blount did not get a
majority over both of his opponents,
but he lacked only few hundred votes
Of doing this. Ii another primary is
held, even Mr.. BTyan's most ardent
supporters cannot expect him to poll
the entire Stockton vote, if indeed, he
can get more than half Of it.
A strange and unusual turn of cir
cumstances called for the present SEN
storial race, and ein each precinct the
election has been possible only by the
patriotism of the voters. They have
conducted the elections without any
additional expense to the candidates.
They have served as clerks and inspec-
TORS; they have carried the ballot
boxes to the county seats of their
ncounties without pay; and the news
papers have printed without compensa-
ton the notices OF election. All Of
this will have to be repeated if sec
opd primary is held. And surely with
che candidate so far in the lead it is
not necessary to ask the voters to hold
another election, just to see how far
Mr.. Hount will be in the lead then.
1t is to be regretted that the neces-
sary ajority was not received by one
OF tho candidates on Tuesday. Florid-
ians have had enough politics for the
last year and second primary now
should be unnecessary.

nITY FOR THE
SAN CARLOS HOTEL AND PEN.
SACOLA.

The January National has one Of
the most valuable "wzibe-ups" of Pen
sacola and the San Carlos hotel which
could well be secured.
Joe Mitchell Chapple, editor and
owner of the magazine, was in the
city during November, and every ef-
fort was made in order to give him
'rose-hued impression Of Pensacola and
the San Carlos, because it is such men
as Chapple whom Pensacola wishes to
set talking about its various charms.
And Joe Chapple talked.
/, He talked through his great National
Magazine to millions OF people, who
will probably for the first time learn
that such a city as Pensacola exists,
and with such hotel as the San
Carlos.
What He Says.
When you travel to certain sections
OF the southland" says Chapple in his
article, YOU have to so by triangular
routes. The longest way round is the
shortest way to get to Pensacola, and
many travellers bound for Jacksonville
go by way OF Montgomery. Pensacola
has a charm of its own. It's just
large enough to be shborly, and
the good toWnSfolk are altogether
charming. When travel through any
