wretched Gadarenes have many imi
tators in our day. Men and women
who because there is money in it,
sell liquor, apologies for gambling,
immortality between men and women,
refuse to be true christians because
it will "hurt their business" There
are such men and women right in this
county and state. Many readers can
think of them These are such as
think to gain the whole world at the
risk of losing their own souls. Let
readers ponder whether he or she is
in this class of people.
The actions of the man who was
helped can we'll be followed. He was
grateful, and did not fail to tell his
neighbors long after Jesus went away
what had been done for him and who
did it. The lesson comes to us to
spread wide the joyful news OF the
power of Jesus to drive away wick
edness, and give a calm pure mind to
all who trust Him. AS these notes
have already gone over the usual linn
it, we close, hoping that the lessons
we have noted and many others will
make a deep impress on all who study
the lesson verses for August 18th.

THOSE CONTESTS.

We devote much of our space this
week to the record of the contests at
the Chicago convention on which the
Roosevelt followers base their bolt
from the republican party. No mat
ter what your convictions, you owe 1t
to yourself to read this statement
carefully. 1t is a brief of the evil
dence in an important case in which
you are one of the jurors. The case
should not be decided on prejudice,
but on the facts. Here is the present
ment of the republican side of the
case. You have heard the cry OF
fraud" now read the evidence. 1t
will be of value to you in the coming
campaign. We had intended also to
print President Taft's speech OF ac-
ceptance, but lack of space prevents.
We shall publish a portion of it next
week. 1t is another document pre-
senting the basic issues of the COM
ing election, and you must read it If
you wish to be fully informed.

Iowa Constitutions Adopted August Sd

1t is a rather curious fact that the
two constitutions under which the
state of Iowa has been governed were
adopted on August Sd. The first con-
stitution of Iowa was adopted by the
people at an election held on August
8, 1916; and eleven years later. on
August 8, 1857, the present constitu-
ton was adopted.
The question of statehood had been
agitated by the people of the territory
of Iowa for several years previous to
1916. and in 1914 a constitutional con-
vention met at Iowa City and drew up
state constitution. But congress pre-
scribed boundaries for the proposed
state which were Objectionable to the
people of the territory of Iowa and so
they rejected the constitution OF 1874
by decisive vote. Two years later,
however, another constitution was
drawn up at Iowa City and adopted
by the people, and on December %,
1916, the state of Iowa was admitted
into the union with the present bound.
aries. The constitution of 1916 re-
NAMED in force until 1857, when a
constitutional convention at Iowa City
drew up the present constitution,
which was adopted by the people on
August 8, 1857.
At the celebration of the semi-cen-
tennial of the constitution of 1857,
which was held at Iowa City in 1907
under the auspices of the State His
torical Society of Iowa, the sole sur.
viving members of the three con.
stitutional conventions of 1914, 1874
and 1857 were present. The proceed
ings of this semi-centennial celebra-
ton have been published in book
form by the State Historical Society
of Iowa.

CARROLL AUTO RACES.
Well Attended and Prove Entertaining
Vernon Carr, Of Oenison,
Wins Slow Race.

The first professional automobile
races were held at Carroll on Saturday
last The meet was a very good one,
and was attended by about 1000 spec
tators. The track was in splendid
condition for racing, and although the
entries were not as numerous as was
anticipated, all were satisfied with the
exhibition.
The first, second and third events
were speed trials and the first was to
establish a track record for amateur
drivers and was won by Ray Body,
of Algona, driving w. B. Swaney's
Ford "Blue Demon" time 1920.
Event No. for professional drivers
was won by Andrew Burt, of Chi
cago, driving his Cino king Dodo,'
time 1:21.
Event No. for professional driv-
ers, Marion Arnold, of New York,
driving Buick Marquette, Flying
Comet" time 1:211a.
The five-mile match race for $500
in gold was a go between Swaney's
Ford, blue Demon" driven by Ray
Body and Andrew Burt driving king
Dodo," and was won by the Ford, time
6:47.
Vernon Carr, of Denison, driving a
Ruick won the half-mile slow high
speed race, time $40. There were six
entries in this even.
In the three-mile event, Marion
Arnold, of New York, took the money
making the first heat in 4:O4.
The two.mile race was a free-for'
all for touring cars and runabOuts, and
was won by Lawton, driving Buick
20, time 1926.
The second heat of the sixth event
between the two New York drivers
was won by Burt over Arnold, time
AIS. In the third heat Arnold won
the race, time 4:21k.
The citizens of Carroll say they
will hold meet next year, which will
Guido the one this year, larger pre-
miums will be put up and an extra
effort made to get a large list of en-
tries. There were no accidents and
only one tire was lost during the
races.

This story of DR.. Elmer Ellsworth
Brown, the new chancellor of New
York university, is now going the
rounds. On one occasion when he was
called upon the respond to a toast at
a banquet he compared the evening
with the dull and drab nights he was
forced to spend porting over his books.
at makes me think of the little son
of a friend of mine," said Chancellor
Brown. lone summer he was taken
to the circus for the first time by his
doting father. When he returned,
round eyes and all but apOplectic with
delight, his mother asked him how he
liked the circus. Mother, said my
friends little boy, If you once go to
the circus with me you'll never want
to fool away time on church again.

TO many people read with thei

To many people read with their
elbows. 1t is mighty discouraging to
a newspaper man to write something
only to find portion of his readers
have received exactly the opposite
meaning from that which he intended
to convey. We must admit that to
some extent it is the fault of the writ
err. He should know that some peo-
pie read with their elbows and his
sarcasm should be plainly labeled,
even though the keen edge be blunted
in the process. We are reminded OF
the humorist who told his best story
with such disastrous effects that he
was moved to the utterance, "and
will never write again as funny as
can" We have had our lesson and
next time we write in sarcastic vein 1t
shall be plainly tagged, IN. B., this IS
sarcasm"

HYPNOTlzED.

AS far as Roosevelt is concerned
we have no use for him; we regard
him as a dangerous and untruthful
demagogue and opportunist. His let
ter regarding colored participation in
his new party is enough to damn him
in the eyes of any honest man. He
is for negro delegates in the north,
where they will do him some good,
and against them in the south. where
they will do him harm. In the face
of one of the greatest moral ques'
tons of this generation he proves
himself a craven coward.
But while we have only condemna-
ton for Roosevelt, we have but sor'
row and concern for the bulk OF his
followers. They are being sadly mis-
led. The unrest of the past few years
has made many people ready to grasp
at any straw which promises a
change, and the glamour of the old
Roosevelt has hypnotized them. The
worst thing that could happen to them
and to all the rest of us is to have
Roosevelt win. He will not Win; 1t
would be national calamity if he did
and he will not. His party will be
shortlived. In four years time it will
be as dead as the free silver issue
which lead so many people to follow
strange gods.
We do not wish to say or do any
thing in the present campaign which
will make it harder for the misguided
ones to come back into the fold. They
will come back and it will be hard
enough for them to acknowledge their
error, without our rubbing it in"
Carried away by an impulse, which
is in itself patriotic, these people have
not stopped to consider what Roose
welt victory would mean. 1t would
mean a revolution not an evolution;
it would bring such confusion, such
reversal of conditions as would bring
panic to our industries, big and little
and would cause the greatest and
most expensive upheaval since the
civil war. One glance at the enormous
all-embracing program of the Roose
welt party will convince any man OF
the impossibility of its fulfillment
without an absolute, full stop in all
the machinery of our government and
business as we know it today. 10
use the well-known illustration orig
mated by Governor Shaw, if ever a
man was deliberately planning to
throw a monkey wrench in the cyl
inder," that man is Third Term Ted
dy.

xorHE1,s FLOWERS.

MY thoughts go back to the days of old,
To those days on the old homestead,
Where the air was sweet with roses
breath
And fragrance blossoms shed:
Where honeysuckles climed around the
porch
And hOllyhocks raised their heads
And forgetmenots and lilies white
Smiled from the garden bed.
Sweet Williams and fuchias and bleed
ing hearts
And peoples and cockscomb, too,
And myrtle. geraniums and helitrope
In that old garden grew.
How often sat by those flowers so
sweet
while the bees around me flew,
While the birds in the trees were sing
ing their glees
And the butterflies fluttered down too!
Those flowers could speak: I am sure
they smiled
AS I sat by their side in the sun.
And the birds and the bees and the
squirrels in the trees
But mother is gone, and her flowers are
dead,
Those dear smiling flowers of yore,
And the homestead so old is turning to
mold,
And the rosebush is dead by the door.
But in my old heart those flowers still
They bloom where no frosts ever
blight
Sweet springtime may come, the sum-
mer may go,
Yet their fragrance will ever delight

Birthday Of Iowa Senator.

August Goth is the eighty-second
anniversary of the birth of James
Harlan, who for many years represent
ed Iowa in the United States senate.
According to Mr.. Johnson Brigham,
State Librarian, who has written a
biography of James Harlan, which
will be published by the State His
torical Society of Iowa, few Iowa
men have a more interesting career
than Senator Harlan He was born
in eastern Illinois in 1920. Coming
to Iowa shortly after the admission
of the state into the union he soon
became involved in a bitter contest
for the Office of state superintendent
of schools. In 1855, after an exciting
campaign, he was elected United
States senator from Iowa. His cleo
ton was declared illegal by the SEN
ate, but he was Immediately reflect
ed by the general assembly OF Iowa.
He served in the senate with great
distinction during the Civil War and
the five preceding years and then be-
came secretary of the interior in 1906,
receiving his appointment from Presi-
dent Lincoln shortly before his assass-
ination. He soon resigned his cab
met position, however, and was again
elected United States senator from
Iowa, serving in that capacity until
he was defeated by William B. Al
lison in 1873 after one of the most
bitter senatorial contests in Iowa his
tory. Mr.. Harlan died in October,
1899.

Does mankind delight to run itself

Does mankind delight to run itself
into debt? A certain loan shark
does not put the question in just that
way. Says he: Does man like TO
keep himself in debt? You bet! And
he delights in doing so by following
a quite humorous sidetrack. My bust
ness brings me face to face with men
who need money. A number who bor-
row need more money before they
have paid that already borrowed. AT
such times they assume an optomistic
spirit. For instance, a man will look
at me when l call on him for the reg.
ular installment payment, then put
his hand into his pocket, pull out I
dollar anil say: Here's one bean on
what owe you, and-can yon lend me
fifty ,nore?" Folks can say what thej
like about loan sharks, but w make
our living from the fellows who kick
and then pay 81 on account.

Flying Bicycles.

The first steamboat, steam locomO-
tive and glider each aroused the de-
rision of the public in their first at
tempts. Such was the fate of the
contestants who entered for the first
public competition of motorless fly
ing machines. The prize was $4,000,
but out of 1913 enteries, only twenty
five actually competed. The machines
were quite similar in construction, be-
ing merely bicycles or tricycles fitted
with planes and propellers. The mo-
tive power was furnished by the rider
by means of the pedals. "Aviette" is
the name bestowed on this latest de-
vice in the art of flying.
To win the prize, one had to rise
from the ground, if only few inches,
and travel marked course of thirty
three feet. A second prize was offered
to anyone who flew over two strings
placed only four inches apart. All
the trials met with failure, the
performance being likened to the
antics of lot of cowboys trying to
ride bucking bronchos. Some of the
inventors were absolutely exhausted
after their fruitless efforts to get
their machines off the ground, but
at no time was anyone in peril, unless
it was the spectators. L'Are, how
ever, treats the matter seriously and
says: 1.-The contest, although a fail
ure, has not proved the impossibility
of motorless flight. BY displaying be-
fore the public machines which lack
even common sense, an impression
has been created that the problem is
more difficult than it really is" Paul
han, who won the $4,000 prize for
the flights from London to Man.
chester, comments: None of the
competitors understands the problem,
and the motorless flying machine does
not yet exist" Tissandier is quoted
as saying: They all lack scientific
knowledge and their propellers are
nearly all 1eeDle. willie tnhlA IL ID
