butter as butter. Congressman Haugen
who is opposing the Burleson bin puts
his opposition on the ground that more
effective regulation may be had under
the 10-cent tax. But this goes behind
expediency and is question Of Justice.
The government can regulate the oleo
business quite as effectively as it does

As BETWEEN CLARKE AND HOLDEN.

The Holden propa gandists appear to
have made a most serious mistake by
soliciting campaign funds Of corpora :
tons. It appears that direct appeals
have been made to corporations all
over the state for funds to push the
Holden candidacy and that letters from
various sections have come TO state
officials protesting against fragrant vi
olation Of the Iowa statute covering
such solicitation Of funds for such
purposes. From Des Moines news dis

1t will seem 10 most men that some
knowledge of important and existing
statutes would De excellent and even

While Lieutenant Governor Clarke
was busy IN the legislative field Holden
appears to have been too busy il the
corn field to have kept IN touch with
important ana progressive legislation.
No doubt Clarke has lost much that
has come to Iowa corn feds thru Hol-
den's activity. But neither the one
nor the other suggest the stability
of changing either man from field IT
which he is valuable and to which he
Is essentially fitted TO another wherein

The natural conclusion is that Clarke

SEEKING A TAFT ISSUE.

The Sioux City Journal thinks il has
found an issue on which Taft could be
elected president again. the occasion
for the new found hope being the de-
termination Of The democrats in the
house of representatives to eliminate
the Taft tariff board by refusing to re-
new appropriations for It. The Journal
is wrong for three reasons: First. there
is no issue on which the American peo-
pie would stand again for Taft: Sec
ond, while the tariff commission idea
has had run Of apparent popularity.
it conflicts sauare!y with the funda-
mental principle Of free government
that taxation must originate with the
Representatives Of the people and not
with the creatures OF the executive
and it could not survive the scrutiny
OF a real campaign. and. third. If there
were meri, in the proposition Taft him
self would manage to middle II sc
that nothing could be realized from
