DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY.

Springfield, (Mass.) Republican:
The democrats have been out of Of
fee for 16 years. In the normal
course of events, under party gov
eminent, it is high time for the pen
dulum of power to swing their way.
According to the theory and prac-
tice of party government, moreover.
they should now be prepared to as
sumo the responsibilities of govern
ment, while their rivals are left by
a disguised nation to settle their in
ternal quarrels in the binocuous
shades of opposition. -
Conditions actually favor the dem
ocrats tofa phenomenal degree. Inn
mediately after the presidential cleo
ton of 1908, had anyone attempted
to forecast political developments in
direction most favorable to demo-
cratic success in 1912, he could not
have imagined a. situation in the
republican party more conductive to
democratic history than what the
country beholds today. Viewed by
the eyes of an enemy. the condition
Of the republican party is now more
nearly ideal in its dissension and dis
integration than he could have hoped
to see, even in his most daring
dreams Of power. n
Everything on the republican side
has happened precisely as q demo

HOW TO SEC URE AN ELASTIC
CURRENCY. IA

II the advocates of an elastic cur
rency are sincere, why do they not not
favor, a statute giving everyone own N
ing government bonds the right to
exchange them for treasury notes
that would circulate as money In
other words loan treasury notes to
any owner Of government bonds and
take the bonds as security. Let the
statute provide that while the bonds
are held as such security by the gov.
eminent that they shall cease to dra 'FF
Interest. When money was scarce scars
the owners of bonds would borrow
from the government in that way,
and when money became, plentiful
and the bond owners wanted their
bonds back the statute should oblige
the government to return the bonds
when requested so to do and Ion re-
turn of sum in treasury notes equal
to the loan. The interest saved by
the government would more than pay
az az the expenses connected 1' with such
exchanges. e.

crat, even the most maliciously par
tisan democrat, could have desired.
The Taft administration has been
pursued by ill-fortune and bounded
by the very men who We're GRIZZLY
instrumental in placing it IN Of
fee. The congressional elections Of
1910 restored democratic control of
the house OF representatives and
sweeping democratic victories inN the
state elections placed many common
Swealths of the north under demo-
cratic-supremacy: The United States
senate has slipped from out of the
grasp Of the regular republican or
ganization and the democratic mem
.bers are again nearly majority OF
that body for the first time in
eighteen years. b (, ss.t
From being united, powerful,
militant force, the republican party
has become one Of the most repul-
sively dtscordant, quarelsome Ell and
impossible entities for the carrying
on Of government that we have We
known in our history as a nation.
Under present conditions, it is ut
terly incapable of 81 the slightest
achievement. 1t neither knows its
own mind, nor recognizes any IN
contested leadership. It controls no
federal legislative chamber. At the
present moment, the republican pres
ident is driven to fight for his po-
litical life in what may best be de-
scribed as colossal political brawl
against the greatest political ruffian
the republican party has produced in
its sixty years of life; and these two
republican chieftains, heading fac
tions which are nursing day by day
animosities that may not be dispell-
editor a generation to come, are en-
gagged in such attacks upon each 9th
er that 1t would seem impossible for
either to gain the presidency weri
he to be nominated. 81
Ideal from the democratic point
of1vieww. Butswhat are the democrats
doing to take advantage Of such
situation? How do they propose to
grasp such an unparalleled opportu-
nifty? Are they ready for the suprem-
acy that should come TO- them. or are
they bpsily digging their own grave
The democratic responsibility, no less
than the democratic opportunity, Is
tremendous, for upon the democratic
party rests the obligation to afford
the country a decent alternative In
government, in case the present cons 1l'
fusion ands trife within republican
ranks leaves the republican party
helpless to continue effectively in the
Administration Of the nations affairs.

The Iowa State College at Ames
has sent out a bulletin which says:
Il The 17-year locust, or Periodical
Cicada,' has appeared over q large
part OF the state of Iowa at regu-
lar intervals in the past and is due
to appear again in 1912. We have
records Of its occurrence In certain
parts Of the state in 1s44Yl86 81,
lists and 1895, SO that its appear
ance again In 1912 is confidently
expected. y Isl K.
In previous years the central.
south central and southeastern parts
of the state were affected by this
brood Of the locusts. It maybe ex-
Gected to appear in the following
countless: Adair, Adams, Audubon,
Boone, Cass, Dallas. Davis, Decatur,
Des Moines, Greene. Hamilton. Hem
ry,, Iowa. Jasper. Jefferson, johnson,
Keokuk, Louisa, Madison, Mahaska,
Marion. Marshall, Monroe. Musca-
tine, Polk, Poweshiek, Ringgold,
Scott. Story, Taylor, Union. Van Bu-
rem, Wapello, Warren. Wayne. Web
ster. II. s S5s:s J. /.
In 1895. when the locusts last ap-
peared in this area, they were less
abund ant, and covered a less extern
sive territory than they did In 1878.
The counties named include the area
affected ink1s7s. It is possible that
the area this year will be still less
IN extent on account of the small
amount of timber. ,s d. 5.l,, 81
WHEN THEY WILL APPEAR.
The locusts should appear about
the last week in May, and remain
for about a month, disappearing
about the tirst OF July, After having
been in the soil ever since 1895, the
young ,locusts, or nympths as they
are called. will come up near the
surface this spring and emerge from
their long stay underground. Some
Of the nympthsl make small earthen
Ichamb ers, or cones, which reach two
or three inches above the ground.
but not all ,of them do this.
THE INJURY.
While the l7-year locusts may
cause considerable injury, this ts sell
dom as serious as one might expect
from their numbers. The. female
cicades cause injury to young trees
by depositing their eggs On twigs and
small branches. This stunts the
growth Of the affected branches.
PROTECTIVE MEASURES.
Farmers. fruit-growers and nur-
serymen who expect to plant trees
this spring are warned of the dan
ger which may be caused by the ci=
cada. Trees are especially liable to
injury when set near timber or on
recently cleared ground. Trees
set in such places should either be
cut severely back at the start, SO as
to leave mo tempting twigs for the
cicades to oviposit in, or cut back
little or not at all until after the
first Of July, when the laousts will
have disappeared. With the latter
treatment the cieadas may deposit
their eggs in the twigs which can
be cut of and burned. cS
The eggs in the twigs and branch-
es hatch. and the young nympt NJ
drop to the ground and ENTER 1t for
long stay OF, another period Of i
years.
