that made them feared and hated and
led to the exclusion at the prayer OF
the men they were likely to displace,

The Democratic party in Its plat

candidate for President woodrow Will
son, who, on the thirteenth day of
June, 1909, in baccalureate address
Ito graduating class at Princeton,
expressed the following remarkable
views on this all-important subject:
You know what the usual standard
of the employee is in our day. It Is to
give as little as he may for his wages.
Labor is standardized by the trades
unions, and this is the standard to
which it is made to conform. No one
is suffered to do more than the aver
! age workman can do; III some trades
and handicrafts no one Is suffered to
do more than the least skillful OF his
fellows can do within the hours al
llotted to days labor, and no one
may work out of hours at all or vol
Eunteer anything beyond the minimum
| / need not point out how economically
disastrous such regulation of labor
lis. 1t is so improbable to the en-
ployer that in some trades it will pres
lently not be worth while to attempt
anything at all. He had better stop
altogether than operate at an newt
! able and invariable loss. The labor
lof America is rapidly becoming I'M
profitable under its present regulation
by those who have determined to re-
duce it to a minimum. Our economic
supremacy may be lost because the
country grows more and more full OF
Improbable servants"
i do not agree with Professor Will
son that members of the trades unions
lare improbable servants. do not
agree with him that the man who be-
longs to a labor organization is trying
I"to give as little as possible for his
wages" do not agree with him that
the work of the least skillful member
iof labor organization sets the stand
ard which marks the amount OF work
that his fellow craftsmen can perform.
/. do not believe that great organiza-
ltion, the American Federation of La
bor, is trying to make American labor
Improbable by reducing it to min
imum.

AM EXPERIMENT. STATION,

Secretary Wilson of the United
States Department of Agriculture has
decided to establish an experiment
station on the Manti National Fact
near Ephriam, Utah. for the study of
grazing and water protection prob
lens. In fact bids for the construc-
ton of the necessary buildings have
been received and 1t Is expected 20
have the station in working order be-
fore winter Already the gathering
/ of observations on the relations OF
erosion and run-off to the forest COW
er have begun.
The Manti National Forest was
Iehosen rs the site for this expert
ment station because it offers excer-
tionally good opportunities for invest.
eating problems of practical value In
connection with regulated grazing.
Ephriam and other towns in it's
neighborhood have suffered severely
from floods following violent rain
storms in the mountains, and 1t has
already been proven conclusiyeIy that
the oyergrazed condition of areas on
which the natural vegetation cover
, has been seriously altered is respon-
, sible for the formation of torrents
and the rapid discharge OF debris
! laden floodwaters. In recent de
structive storm the water ran cleal

IOWA REPUBLICAN.

The Republican campaign in the
state of Iowa will demonstrate that
Iowa people are we'll content to have
their state continue as Republican
state and to have the affairs of the
state handled by Republican servants
who believe in the principles of the
Republican party"
So declares Charles A. Rawson of
the Republican state committee, as he
this week opened Headquarters and
commenced the active work of organ
izing the state to get out the Republi-
can vote and to get before the voters
the issues that are at stake.
The Republican state committee
met with the candidates for office
and held Very satisfactory and har-
monious session the latter part OF the
week. There was fine spirit of opti-
mism present and declaration that
nothing should be permitted to stand
in the way of success. A harmonious
program was laid out for work for the
party and the ticket, to give support
to the candidates and to carry or
educational work through speaker
campaign and the furnishing of litera-
ture to the voters.
The efforts of outside disturbers to
cause dissensions among the candi-
dates and party workers and to
spread abroad all sorts of stories cal
culated to stir up jealousy or arouse
antagonism, came to naught, and the
chosen leaders OF the party will work
/ together for the common good and
make winning fight.
Gov. George Clarke, who has beer
making campaign in the state fol
nearly two months, finds that tbs
/ feeling toward the party is excellent
and he has spoken to very many
large crowds at reunions and else
where and always has been greeted
with many evidences of the conf
dences of the people.
1 Senator VIM. S. Kenyon. who has
just now got back into the state after
a strenuous seige in congress, states
that the reports which come to hin
are encouraging and he has no doub
whatever that Iowa will continue Il
. be Republican state for many years
He will Immediately devote grea
deal of time to the campaign.
Members of congress and othe
candidates on the ticket are ready 70
: an aggressive fight.

CONGRESSMAN KENNEDY.

Congressman Charley Kennedy has
fifty per cent more friends throughout
the First Iowa district today than
when he was first elected to congress,
says the Burlington Hawk-Eye. His
friendships are the kind made by per-
sonal contact with men, and by ear
nest and honest service to the people.
His record in congress is an admir-
able one and will stand as bulwark
against anything which his democra
tic opponent may try to bring against
him.
