Galorey repeated vaguely. "State?"
why, she's all run down. tired out;
she's got no real friends in London"
The other man Kicked the ash from
his cigarette and looked at Blair's boy
through his monocle.
And you thought that Lily might
befriend her, old chap"
"Yes." nodded Dan. "just give her a
lift, you know"
Galorey nodded back. smiling gent
". II see. sea moral. spiritual
lift? see-I see." He glanced at
the woman with his strange smile.
She put her cigarette down and
seated herself. clasping her hands
around her knees and looked at her
fiance.
Its none of my business what Let
ty Lanes reputation is. l don't care.
but you must understand one thing.
Dan, I'm not a reformer. or charit-
able institution, and II she comes here
1t is purely professional"
He took the subject as settled, and
asked for a copy of the program and
put 1t in his pocket. ''Ill get the
names of her songs from her and take
the thing myself to Harrison's. And
ia better hustle, I guess; there's. no
time to lose between now and Sun
day" And he went out triumphant
Galorey remained, smoking. and the
duchess continued her notes in sill
ence, cooling down at her desk. Her
companion knew her too well to speak
to her until she had herself in hand,
and when finally she took up her pen
End turned about, she appeared con-
A.ious for the first of his presence.
Here still" she exclaimed.
IT thought might do for safety
vmlve, Lily. You could let some Of
your anger out on me-"
The duchess left her desk and came
over to him.
II expect you despise me thorough
ly, don't you, Gordon?"
They had not been alone together
since her engagement to Blair, for she
had taken pains to avoid every oppor-
tunity for tete-a-tete.
"Despise your" he repeated gently.
TITS awfully hard, isn't it. for a chap
like me to despise anybody? We're
none of us used to the best quality Of
behavior, you know. my dear girl"
Don't talk rot. Gordon" she muir
s1ured.
"You didn't ask my advice" he con-
tinued, but l don't hesitate to tell you
that have done everything could to
save the boy"
She accepted this philosophically
~Oh. I knew you would; l quite OK
rocted it, but" and in the look she
threw at him there was more liking
than resentment-"I knew you. too:
you couldn't go very far. my dear fol

II think Dan Blair is excellent
stuff" Gordon said.
HE is the greenest. youngest, most
ridiculous infant" she exclaimed with
Irritation, and laughed.
His money Is old enough to walk,
hpwever, isn't it. Lily" She made an
angry gesture.
Il expected you'd say something
lcathsome."
Her companion met her eyes direct
". She left her chair and came and
sat down beside him on the small
sofa. AS he did not move. or look at
her. but regarded his cigarette with

whispered: Gordon. try to be nice

age Of wet lands is taking shape and
has naturally found it's starting
points in the Mississippi valley" says
the St. Louis Globe.Democrat. I'm
fact, Missouri has furnished a prac-
tical demonstration whose value has
been recognized by the department
OF agriculture and Endorsed by the
committee of experts appointed by
the recent National Drainage congress
at Memphis. In this state a large
area Of wet lands has been drained
under a law permitting a tax for the
purpose to be paid in gradual Install
ments annually. No aid is asked from
congress except to exercise wisely its
control of rivers and to furnish the
surveys connected with this authority.
Southeast Missouri has made SO much
progress in drainage that it is now &C.
cepted as a practical model by the
scientific branches of investigation at
washington. The field is not one OF
the risky experiment. Results are
certain If Intelligent methods are ap-
piled.
Another meeting of the National
Drainage congress will be held at New
Orleans from April 10 to 10, and the
subjects to be discussed will include
both drainage and irrigation. They
belong together in a national sense
Their common purpose is to raise big
crops on land not now available. A
drained area IS inexhaustibly rich in
alluyial deposits. The area In the
United States awaiting this reclama-
ton would make two states the size OF
Illinois. Irrigation in this country was
born with gold spoon. 1t receives in
the arid states the money. coming IN
from the sale of their public lands, and
the projects under construction will
cost $15O,OOOO0O. The money Is re-
paid in installments by settlers ana
goes out again for more irrigation.
Drainage, on a self-sustainlng OASIS
is entitled to like consideration at the
hands of congress, but this point needs
to be more strongly impressed by the

TAFT AND RECIPROCITY.

President TaftS acton III ulepooliS
or the agitation for reciprocity WIN
Canada has been mentioned In critic
ism of the president, but the courier
feels the president is entitled to praise
instead Of criticism for the steps ne
took in disposing Of this measure.
FOR seven years there has been cease
less agitation for reciprocity. Cam
paien orators, seeking for an issue,
had seized upon this question and
there was endless debate. President
TAN said, 1--WE will settle this issue. "
He stopped the agitation by putting
the reciprocity question up to Canaoa
either to adopt it or reject 1t. Can
ada rejected reciprocity and the issue
is forever settled.
II President Taft had not acted
decisiyely in a way that brougnt an
end to the endless discussion ana
called for action there Is no DOUBT
that reciprocity would have been an
issue for campaign orators for the
next seven years, as it has been IN the
past. The president acted in this
matter as he acted in other govern
mental matters that nave peen put up
to him. The tariff question, tne truss
question, the reciprocity questlon anu
the other big matters that raced hln
when his administration began nave
been promptly taken up and acted up
on. In all these matters he mas accea
courageously and honestly and Win
true craftsmanship. That he mas act
ed as he thought to be right regard
less of the effect his action would
have on his political future stamps
him as one of the greatest men VINO
has ever occupied the executive chalf'
In the matter of reciprocity the
president was led to believe that the
senti; ,ent of the middle west was IA
yorab to this issue. The agitation
for I'd eiprocity began in the middle
west and the president had every rea-
son to conclude that this section
wanted reciprocity. When 1t came 10
q show down it was found that some
OF the campaign orators only wanted
reciprocity as a campaign issue, ana
not as settled economic policy anu
when they voted, not for RECIPROCITY
AZ they talked, but against RECIPROCITY
A their constituents demanded, II
mnst have been enlightening TO the
president as showing that the cam
paien speeches he had heard 1rom
the sneakers from the middle west
did not represent the sentiment or
these sections.
II the farmers of the middle west
have any one to blame for the reel
procity matter it is the campaign ora
tors who went over the country oe-
handing it. President Taft should De
eiyen a vote of thanks for killing TINS
issue 80 effectually that it Will not
come to life again in generation ana
for removing the possibility OF the
adoption of reciprocity policy.

I,ouis last week the Republican Edito-
rial association Of Missouri passed res
olutions enthusiastically indorsing the
administration of President Taft. Ing
republican organization and practi-
caIlv all the republican state leaders
except Hadley are openly for Taft.
Confident assurances have been given
that Missouri will send solid TAFT
delegation to the national cohVen-
ton.
In Illinois the anti-Taft element was
first. in the field for active work ana
o promising organization for LaFol'
lette was worked up. The LaFollette
workers had high hopes of carrying
the state. Then the Roosevelt wave
rolled over the Chicago Tribune and It's
allies constituting a small but powerful
nolitic cal machine. Now the LaFollette
movement has been lost In the SHADOW
of the Roosevelt movement, national
headouarters for which has been es-
tablished in Chicago under the chape-
ronage of the Tribune. With friction
existing between the LaFollette and
Roosevelt pushers, an Illinois Taft or
eanization is to be formed under the
leadership of John V. Farwell, and a
rapid crystallization Of Taft sentiment
may be expected.
As a result of the Cummins can
didacy in Iowa and the Roosevelt
movement in other progressive states
the La Toilette boom has lost pres
tige, and the genuine La Toilette sup
porters are unable to conceal their
resentment over the double, double
cross to which their candidate has
been subjected. In Nebraska Repre-
sentative Norris, the La Toilette
leader, has declared for a fight for La
toilette, first, last and all the time.
President Taft is certain to profit in
creasingly by the lack of harmony as
to candidates in the insurgent camp.
The disclosure that Col. Roosevelt
will not become an open candidate
and will not accept nomination
unless it represents Overwhelming de-
mand from the rank and file of the
party is interpreted as helping to as
sure the denomination OF President
Taft. It is confidently asserted by the
presidents supporters that the nomi-
nation Of Roosevelt under such circum-
stances is an absolute impossibility.

FIRST FOR TAFT.

The republican central committee OF
the first congressional district held
meeting in Burlington yesterday for
the purpose of making arrangements
for the district congressional conven-
ton to name delegates to the national
convention at Chicago. The commit
tee selected Burlington as the place
for the convention and March 20 as the
date. The committee went on record
emphatically for the denomination OF
President Taft and adopted the follow
Ing resolutions unanimously:
Resolved, That the republicans of
the first Iowa congressional district be-
]ieve that the wise efficient and pa
triotfc administration of President Taft
entities him to the customary second
term of the presidency. We favor his
denomination, not in a factional spirit,
but because he Is the titular leader
OF the party to whom thousands OF Iowa
republicans pledged their fealty before
any other aspirants announced their
candidates., and under whose leader
ship there is the greatest assurance
OF success at the polls and the main
tenance of the cardinal principles Of
the republican party.
The resolutions closed with an en-
dorsement of the declaration Of prin-
ciples by Chicago republicans which
appeared in the Courier a few days
ago.
Commenting on the action of the
committee in endorsing President Taft,
the Burlington Hawk-Eye this morn
ing says:
While the meeting was very pro-
nounced in the endorsement Of Presi-
dent Taft for second term, there was
prevalent tolerant spirit that would
unite all republicans, regardless of fac
tfons, under the titular leadership of
the president, who by the custom of
the past is clearly entitled to that hon
or. It was the Judgment of those pres
emit that the tide of public sentiment is
now steadily toward the president and
very little II any doubt now exists
that he will be chosen at Chicago as
the party leader In the coming cam
paign. And it is believed that the
same strong current of public opinion
will grow and strengthen as the pres
idential campaign progresses and that
1t will result in the success of the re-
publican ticket next November. 1t is
apfdly becoming evident that the other
candidates aspiring to the leader
ship have no show of attaining their
ambition this year Under the circum.
stances, the wisest step Iowa republi-
!, cans can take Is to make Mr.. Taft's
nomination unanimous.
