Des Moines. Oct. 10.-That the ac-
ton of Judge Smith Mcpherson in
putting the Fort Dodge. Des Moines &
Southern railroad in the hands Of re-
ceivers was a good one is evinced by
the annual report of the interurban
company for the year ending June 80
1911. which shows net income for the
year Of s1OS,S0S14.
This figure is not only the biggest
net income experienced in the history
of the company, but also the first yea.
during the life of the company that the
interurban road was operated at a
profit.
On June 3, 1910, Judge Mcpherson
presiding at the session Of the FEEDER, .
court in Des Moines, named Home:
Loring Of Boston. and Farley Sheldon
of Ames, as receivers for the concern
These two men became active immedi-
ately in the affairs Of the company
The total operating revenue of the
road was s566,571.96.
A total number OF s1.351.990 passen-
gers were carried during the year. The
average fare of these passengers was
20.93 cents
An interesting feature of the report
is that not one mile of free transpor-
tation, even to employees OF the COM
pany, was issued.
Last years deficit. which amounted
to $43,39412, was paid out OF this year s
revenue, as was also the sum of $11,-
5S1.32, expended for additional equip
ment and improvements to the line
These two items cut the net revenue
for the year down to s5S $3.50.
The year was another one on the
red" side of the ledger for the Wa
bash Railroad Company. according to
the annual report of the concern filed

Which Does Appointing Serves.
Sioux City. Oct. 10-The city ordi-
nances may have to be amended to
conform to the state law with reference
to the terms of the library trustees.
In an opinion submitted to the coun-
ell today, F. Z. Gill, city attorney.
holds that the trustees can serve but
two years. or in other words, their
terms expire with those of the council
which named them. The request for
the opinion came from Councilman
Jonathan w. Brown. who also wrote
to the city clerk of Des Moines inquir-
ing as to the length of the library trus-
tees terms in that city. Two years is
the limit in Des Moines. Mr.. Gill cited
that section of the statute which pro-
vides that the more important appoint
i've offices filled by the. council are for
a term Of two years.
Under the old law nine trustees were
named. The new law provides for but
three trustees. Believing that they
served for periods of two, four and six
years. the Sioux City library trustees
drew lots to decide the length Of their
terms. The question has come up in
many Iowa cities.

Capital Punishment
For House Robbers.

A neighboring state has passed a
law making robbing house crime
which may be punished by life impris-
onment or death.
Usually when a thief enters resi-
dence where human beings are sleep
ing, with the intention of committing
robbery. he will commit murder If he
IL cornered in order to escape the
hands of the law, and the new law is
based on that fact.
Laws similar to this one should De
PASSED in all states for few criminals
are meaner than the one who will de-
liberately plan to enter residence &c
commit robbery and probably murder
II he is thwarted in his plan to steal.
Murder committed in the heat OF
passion is sometimes excusable, but
the criminal who deliberately plans the
entering Of homes where there may be
only women. is one Of the most dan
serous OF criminals and deserves to
die at the hands of the law, If capital
punishment is justiiable in any case.

Governor Dix Should
Come to the Rescue.

Circumstances are said to alter all
cases, and If it is generally thought
that a governor should not take part in
the election of United States senator,
it looks like the circumstances would
Justify Governor Dix in taking an ac-
tive part in the New York situation.
It is intimated that one word from
him will put the right man in, but the
governor said that the election was not
a part of his business and he proposed
to keep his hands off.
Ordinarily, his position Is the right
one for governor to assume, but the
people Of New York voted for Mr.. DiA
believing that he was free from and
would not allow the interests" to die
tate to him. Unless he comes to the
front now and helps defeat the Tam
many candidate the opinion Of the
voters may change and the sentiment
turn, thus losing the state to the Re-
publicans again.
I The success of the Democratic party
may lay within the hands of Governor
Dix at this time. Much depends on
New York In the next presidential
election and IL the governor will meet
the situation square and fair he will
benefit his state and his country.
Governor Wilson is fighting for
purity in politics and if New York's
governor will come out fiat footed on
the senatorial candidate he will strike
q popular chord with the people and
make the Tammany leaders learn at
the beginning that Democracy in New
York stands for purity and that he is
to be found in the front ranks.
