Political Aspect Of Miners organiza-

Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines, March 19.-The state OF
district convention Of miners in session
here has shown that as a matter OF
fact most Of the coal miners Of Iowa
have become socialists and will affili-
ate with the socialist party. It is said
to be not SO much that the men have
changed their views, as it Is that an
entire new outfit Of miners is in
charge, caused by the constant shifting
of men from one state to another. A
few years ago the majority of the
miners were Of Welsh or Irish ances-
try: now they are mainly either 1tal-
ians or Russians or Of some Of the
Slavonic races. It is stated that near

Decentralization. z here will
be a lot of people disappointed,
and a few may think that the
world is coming to an end, but
they will get over that in a few
days and be loyal American citi-
zens; and if they have any re-
venge burning for qualification,
they will keep quiet and wait I'M
til the next election.
While the outlook thus seems
favorable, it does not seem to us
the time for wild speculation,
nor for going in debt without
being very sure of the where
withal to pay. when the time
comes. 1t is a time for keeping
a firm hand on business, for fill
ing up the cribs with corn, and
keeping some wheat in the gran
airy, and growing more stock to
eat the grass and forage and
grain. The fatmer can well af-
ford to increase his herd of cat
tie, particularly in females. He
can afford to buy better bulls.
He can afford to put in grass
some of his land that has been in
corn and grain for a number of
years. 1t stands him in ham: to
decrease the cost of production
by farming fewer acres and farm
ing better, by saving wastes that
have been going on, and by
studying methods of cooperation
by means of which he can get a
larger per cent of the consumers

There is no reason for discour-
agement nor alarm; neither is
there, on the other hand any
good reason for extravaganza or
over-expanding our business.
Between the Mississippi and
Missouri rivers, and some dis
lance west, and in some sections
east of the Mississippi, we shall
not see as full a crop for years to
come, because, as we have al
ready pointed out, this large
crop is due to a combination of
circumstances, which in the ma
ture of things will not soon oc.
cur again. 1t will not do to say
that next year will be like this
year and much more, abundant;
for there is no probability of that.
The thing for us to do is to so
improve our farming that under
less favorable conditions we can
grow on the best lands from
forty to fifty bushels of wheat
and eighty bushels of corn. That
is the thing for US to think about,
and not worry lest everything
go to pot" because one set of
men are put in Office and another
set put out. The foundations of
our prosperity lie deeper than

section of the corn belt before
this reaches the eyes OF the read
err, we shall harvest about as
large a corn crop as was ever
grown in the United States. We
have already harvested as large
wheat, oats and barley crops as
we have ever harvested. We
have, speaking generally, an
abundance of roots and fruits.
In short, we have as much agri-
cultural produce in the northern
aud western states as the rail-
roads, let them do their best,
will be able to handle. The dis
ease among horses, mainly west
of the Missouri; the prevalence
of hog cholera in many sections,
and the shortage of cattle are
somewhat discouraging factors;
but, taking all things into &C
count, we doubt if there has been
a year in the past twenty when
the country had more elements
of real prosperity, says Wallace's
Farmer.
We have a suspicion that all OF
our crops are a little overesti-
mated, or we should rather say,
overestimated in some sections
and underestimate in others;
for it is hard to overestimate
such crops as we have grown
west of the Mississippi, and hard
| to underestimate the crops grown
| in some of the less fortunate sec
tions of the country. Still 1t
may be safely said that we have
as great an amount of agricul-
tural resources as we have had
any year in the twenty years past.
Had this great crop been har-
vested twenty years ago, we
would undoubtedly have had a
serious decline in prices, and the
crop would not have yielded as
many dollars as the crop of last
year. In these twenty years,
however, cities have grown as
they never grew before, and con-
sumption has overtaken produc-
ton not only in this country but
in the entire civilized world.
Hence, though prices will I'M
doubtedly be lower, and for a
time perhaps lower than the factt
justify, we shall have good prices
for a year to come except in case
of some worldwide calamity.
When the farmer is prosperous,
all other classes are prosperous.
1t has always been so, and al
ways will. If the world did not
need our food products, this big
crop would be a source of embar-
rassment and loss; but with our
immense city population as COM
pared to the farm population, we
can scarcely see how anything
else but fairly good times should
continue, The outlook is all the
more favorable because, while
we are in the midst of a presi.
Dental campaign, nobody seems
to be very much disturbed or ex-
cited. We are sorry to see one
of the great parties in its adver-
Using predicting financial disas-
ter in case it does not continue
in power. We are sorry to see
the claims of another great party
that there will be a decline in
the cost of living in case it is
given power. Surely this is all
arrant nonsense. No matter who.
is elected, people will have 10.

MILEAGE BILL VETO NOT
REFERRED TO ATTY. CEN.
Gov, Brown Did Not Ask the
States Attorney About That
or School Board Upheaval

did Governor Brown get the attorney
generals opinion back of him before he
vetoed the mileage bill"
That question. in varying form. has
been asked all over the state since the
indignation of the travelling public was
aroused some days ago by the governors
usurpation Of the functions of the
judiciary when he declared the mileage
bill unconstitutional and killed it with
his veto.
It's answer Is NO"
Attorney General Fielder was asked the
direct question by friend last Friday.
His answer was a fat negative.
Nor did Governor Brown have the opin-
ion of the states official adviser with
him when he attempted to remove
Messrs. Pound and Langston from the
state school board and to substitute for
them tw6 appointees OF his own.
In that act. too, the governor pro-
ceeded without the advice of the attor-
ney general. 4
Neither the veto of the mileage bill nor
the attempted displacing of the school
board appointees was referred to the at
torney general by the governor.
So far as the records show. Governor
Brown felt no need of a lawyers advice
upon. either of these matters. Or, II he
had advisers. they were not chosen BY
the people. 1t is believed. and with what
looks like good reason, that II Governor
Brown had referred theNquestion of the
veto to Attorney General Fielder. Mr..
Fielder would have advised against it;
and that If he had referred the at
tempted removal of Mr.. Pound and Mr..
Langston to Mr.. Fielder. the attorney
general would have advised against that
also.
Whatever the result of either act may
be, the attorney general, T. S. Fielder,
of Macon, will share no responsibility
with Governor Brown.

On his way to Hartford Colonel oose-

Governor Wilson. he said, had stated
that Colonel Roosevelt. IN favoring "a
more equal distribution" OF the prize
money had defended Legitimate booty
In the way OF tariff privileges. Colonel
Roosevelt declared that he had not been
speaking Of the tariffs. He meant that
he believed large prizes in industry were
legitimate in return for honest effort,
but that the workmen should have their
share.
Colonel Roosevelt read a letter in
which he was asked his position in re-
