WHAT OTHERS SAY.


Monticello Express: Governor
Carroll is the only brake that keeps
Iowa from slipping into the kind
of ropulism that made Kansas ia
nous in the days of PETER and
Simpson
Senator Cummins voted AGAINST
the Sutherland amendment resery-
ing to congress the right to SUPER
wise popular election of United
States senators. So did the demo
cratic senator's.
The Usage News (progressive)
says the Deemer candidacy for the
senatorship offered the first real
chance fer harmony between the
factions and the stan1patters in of
fering it are entitled to credit, while
their opponents in refusing it are
not gaining in public estimation
about ten years ago. says the
Bedford Republican. '.Mr.
Cummins was sure that reciprocity
with Canada was good thing. Now
that there is chance to have it,
he is against it. 1t must be hard
for a Cummins follower to tell
whether he is coming or going
There are a number of Gov. Cum
Minis friends who believe that he
is weakening his position as a ma
tional figure by refusing his en-
dorsement of the primary method
of settling the Iowa senatorial dead
lock, when he has heretofore been
its champion in and out of season
and by taking capitious and hedg-
in attitude m rdc Y, No
procity-within reach--when he has
been the champion of the plan in
theory for the past ten years.
Rockford Register, progressively.
The Waverly Republican applies
an old adage to the reciprocity
treaty in the following: 1.-The dog
had a big hunk of meat in his mouth
when he looked into the water of
the river where he saw another dog
with hunk of meat in his mouth.
This made him envious and he drop
ped his good meat to grab the meat
from the other dog. He grabbed
at shadow and while in the act
his own meat was carried away by
the rivers current and lost. Is that
what Canadian reciprocity will do

Cedar Rapids Republican: A year
ago the country was filed with poll
tical howlers who said that the tariff
was making prices higher. Now
prices are going the toboggan, but
are the same fellows giving the
tariff the credit for the lower prices,
If it is credit? Strange as it may
seem in Iowa some farmers, under
political inspiration from Des
Moines, Joined in the hue and cry
against higher prices, although
those same farmers were the first
heneficiaries of 10 cent hogs end
Sc cent corn. We are a strange
people, politically and Historically,
and we would often destroy our own
advantages, if We could have our
ways.

EDITOR CAUSES SENSATION.
Cedar Rapids Newspaper Man Makes
Damaging Charge Against
Senator Cummins.

Vinton Eagle: The old saying is
that murder will out For sever
al years there has been deep poll
tical mystery in Cedar Rapids re-
garding the pardoning of Frank
Noyak. Everybody seemed 10 know
that there was mystery, but no.
body seemed to know just what it
was.
Editor Enaicott Of the Enterprise,
of that city, intimates that he
knows something about the mystery.
He int:mates that he has held the
secret abcut as long as he is able
to and shows desire to explode.
The great trouble with political
deals is that too many has a hand
in them. Some day and at some
time The holder OF the secret evin-
ce5 q desire to tell what he knows.
This is what seems to be ailing En-
Gicctt and he takes the Lorimer
episode as an excuse to tell what
he knows. In the last issue of his
paper under the title of "Cummins
and Lorimer," he tells or attempts
to tell what he knows. What En-
dicott tells in his paper is comment
ed on by the Cedar Rapids Repub-
lican of last Saturday, and we here
with print what Endicott says in
the Enterprise and also what the
Republican says as TO what Endicott
prints. 1t is as follows:
The editor of this paper three
times voted for Albert b. Cummins
tor the office of governor of the
state of Iowa.
And now, the editor Of this pa
per, Senator Cummins having
assumed the attitude of whitewings,
desires that official to stand up and
say whether he did or did not, at
certain conference held at Hotel
Montrose in the city of Cedar RAJ
pids, Iowa, promise to commute the
sentence of one Frank Novak, con-
victed of murder in the second de-
gree and sentenced to life imprison-
ment for the killing of Edward Muir
ray at Walford, in return for the
promise Of certain support from in
dependent sources before the pri-
mary election.
And will Senator Cummins say
that he had not promised neither to
pardon nor parole Novak, and if he
VIII liiAo paper VIII pilHS out luS
whole story. Ii rather likes the
truth. Cummins bought his way, or
tried to buy it, through the primar-
les as much as Lorimer ever bought
an election in Illinois, and some of
the especially disinfected white
wings might better understand that
the facts are in possession of those
who believe that, under certain cir
cumstances, a public service would
be rendered by their publication.
The poet Pope had no high opinion
of the hypocrite, and the editor Of
this paper always did rather like
Pope when he was CARRIED in war
paint and feathers. Now, will SEN
ator Cummins or his supporters
come across.

AL WILSON TONIGHT.
Popular German Dialect Singing
Comedien Coming 30 the
Grand Tonight.

AL H. Wilson, the German dialect
| comedian, who occupies a promin-
ent position in. the front ranks of
Teutonic comedians and who has
built up clientele that equals the
proportions of that enjoyed by the
elder Emmett Of pleasant memory,
will be the attraction at the Grand
on Wednesday night, April 5th,
when he will present his great
comedy success, "A German Prince. :"
Mr.. Wilson is possessed of a mag
netic personality that has won him
many friends during his previous
engagements in this city, and his
always certain conquest of an audi
ence is aided and accumulated this
season through an uncommonly
bright and interesting laugh-provok-
ing comedy, the mere title of which
is suggestive of quaint and pictur-
esque scenes and beautiful situa-
tions.
The story tells of. the adventures
of Prince of the German Empire,
one Metz Won Arhmein, who is very
much down in his luck and who lis
tens to the seductive scheme of
Chicago SPECTATOR to trade his
name and rank for gold in the form
of marriage contract with a frivo-
lous old widow. However, before
the union is consumated, the prince
has a revulsion of conscience, and
in order to escape from the tolls of
matrimony with one so ancient,
pretends to drown himself in the
river Rhine, assumes another per-
sonality in the guise Of courier
and Is employed in that capacity to
guide a party of Americans through
Germany. His aged fiance happens
to be one of the party, and many
ludicrous situations ensue when the
Prince endeavors to avoid recogni-
ton while making love to his en-
ployer, young and Independent
American girl, who loves him sec
reilly in return.
Complications of the most laugh
able character follow in quick sue
cession until he is suspected of do
ing away with the real Prince and
concealing the body. In his en-
deagor to disentangle matters, he
unconsciously tightens the web of
circumstantial evidence and is COM
PEELED to own up to the truth in
order to clear himself.
Throughout the rapid action of
the comedy are interspersed Mr..
Wilson's tuneful melodies. Noted of
which is his most brilliant success,
My Queen of Dreams" ballad
that gives his tuneful voice oppor-
tunity for great range and expres-
SIGN. Then there are other songs
hno less captivating, including med
ley of old fayorites SO dear to the
hearts of his numerous admirers.

increase of only 49 per cent. in

President Taft will assist in break

constructed of unusually large size
for the particular event - right
over the spot where the ceremonies
are to take place. The ceremonies
will last four days and will be of
very cheerfully promised director
general ID. c. Collier that he would
do this, for, he said, he took an
unusual interest in the San Diego
Exposition because it will exploit
the achievements of Uncle Sam

aims to bring together the Latin
American republics and unite them

be an artistic, financial and indus

1t is a wise decision of the gov

cause of the explosion which sent
the Maine to the bottom of Havana

cause of the explosion will never be
