AMERICANS WON'T
STAND FOR A THIRD
TERM FOR PRESIDENT

The term presidential year" has
become TO have definite significance
in our politics as period of upheaval
and interruption of business. 1t was
a question with the trainers of the
Constitution whether the presiden-
tial term should not be made longer
than four years and many conser-
vative persons have wished il were
so.
The comparative shortness of the
term doubtless has contributed some
what to the usual custom of accord
ing a second term as a means OF par
italy bridging over frequent chang
es of administration.
Washington did not hesitate to
give the same sanction of his great
name and example to a second term,
but firmly refused to accept a third,
thereby placing a ban on the third
term idea.
Most of our really popular Presi-
dents have had a second term, as
Washington, jefferson, jackson, Lin
coin, Grant and others, as have also
some of mediocre ability and little
popularity who had done nothing
special to deserve it and whose renom-
nation was a sort of conservative
protest against change.
James X. Polk was the first Pres
ident to decline in advance second.
term, an example followed only once
since, and that by Rutherford B.
Hayes Polk was sprung in the
Democratic convention as dark
horse and with little prospect of be-
ing nominated.
In his letter of acceptance he de-
clared that if elected he would enter
upon the discharge of the high and
solemn duties of the office with the
settled purpose of not being a candi-
date for reelection" He kept his
word and at the end of first term
reiterated his purpose.
Every Republican president who
has lived through first term has
been renominatede, and the Demo-
Gratis recognized this custom by re-
nominating Cleveland in 1858 and
again in 1892.
Popular OPPOSITION to a third term
is even more pronounced than
popular APPROVAL of a second.
After Washington's disapproval of
the idea the great name of Grant
could not prevail against opposition
to it, although the third term it was
to give him was not con-
secutive Two terms enough" beat
him for renomination.-Ind

Des Moines, Aug. 24.-There has not
been recently in Iowa any more pro-
nounced victory Of popular demand for
real progress over stolid resistance OF
corporations to any innovation than
eral court for reduction of the price o:
gas in Des Moines from 81 per thou
sand to 80 cents. The decree was tho
elimination of long fight, more or
less irregularly carried on for q time.
then boldly carried into the courts and
threshed out at enormous expense and
with much pains. There can hardly be
a doubt that the city victory is final
and conclusive.
The court allows three months for
the going into effect Of the order. but
it is provided that rebates may be de-
manded on all bills paid since the ordi-
nance making the reduction was
passed. 1t is estimated that the re-
bates the company will have to pay
amount to probably 100000, tho Of
course only part Of this will be
claimed. But there Is no doubt that,
If the decree stands. 1t means a great
deal to the industries of the city and
will be at least drop In reduction OF
the cost Of living to $4,000 people.
Fight 10 Years Old.
The fight commenced years ago
when the people Of Des Moines COM
menced to look into the conduct Of
public service corporations which was
also about the time that public service
corporations commenced to take a
hand in city politics. 1t so happened
that only one or two men were al
lowed to gain prominence at a time i'm
bued with the notion that the cost Of
should be only enough to afford
reasonable compensation for the capt.
tai invested. One such. who at various
periods, came to the surface was John
Maovicar, now playing a conspicuous
role in the progressive party organi-
cation. whilom mayor of Des Moines
under the old system then chosen to
be one ofvthe first under tho new COM

been a believer in holding corporations
to strict accountability. and because Of
this fact he bears many scars from the

ing things. Tho fact that hero at Des
'Moines he will speak to the people OF a
state which has already demonstrated
the value Of progressive principles will
give him great opportunity for pointing
a good lesson. Those who tried hard
to arrange for Roosevelt to be here
on one Of the state fair days are recon-
ciled to the later date because Of the
fact that the crowd he gets will be all
his own and nobody can say they
came to the fair instead OF coming to
hear the candidate.
Change IN Sentiment.
There has been the past few days
q marked change in the local attitude
toward the third ticket" proposition.
Whereas there was. before the recent
meeting, a disposition in circles where
the group Of Des Moines politicians
control, to encourage q third ticket,
there is now some desire to back up.
1t has been assumed that the third
ticket idea would be directed almost
entirely toward Governor Clarke and
he would have to bear the brunt Of the
fight If one is made, and 1t is an open
secret that the local group Of politi-
clans has never been able to control
Clarke nor to use him. and they would
just as soon see him in trouble; but
when others on the ticket are also Civ
en- embarrassment, why that Is diff
ferent. II the third ticket meant mere
ly q candidate for governor and a can
didate for congress- in this district the
Des ,Moines political bosses would be
enthusiastic for it.
Cummins' Attitude.
There Is much interest in the COM
ing of Senator Cummins to the state
to look into the political situation. He
has made his position very plain on
several occasions, but there will be
demand that he state it over again
and again. He will not. Of course. give
to Taft any support, but he will sup
port the republican party and ticket
and all properly nominated candidates
for Office. The fact that congress is
on the point Of adjourning means also
that the long deferred conference Of
republican candidates and the members
Of the committee will be scheduled for
an early date. and the state campaign
will be started.

Sheldon.
At a rousing meeting Of the Com

city should be lighted by the electroler

to be placed now should be paid for
by subscription Of citizens and do
mated to the city, and the city would
then pay for operating them. A COM
mittee was appointed to raise the
money at once. and report to the club
at a meeting to be called soon. This
improvement Is one OF the preparatory
ones to the laying OF pavement on
