| These are but part. Every one of the
powers has it's greedy designs upon
the territory of the Turk or of the Bal
kans. No one can tell where it will all
end.
When Nicholas, whose daughters
have aligned his house with Russia and
Italy and indeed with other powers,
started the war with Turkey he felt
that he had the support of those pow
ers, and indeed they may have melted
his act and quite probably did. 1t is
likely that the lion" of the Balkans
saw himself sitting on an emperor's
chrome, ruler over his neighboring
states while king of Montenegro, as
the king of Prussia is emperor of the
German federation But when he did

power, and without Franz Joseph of
Austria and his fear of Slavic union
which would dismember his empire,
or else he must have had the most
powerful of assurances from Italy and
Russia. Perhaps the German-Italian-
Austrian league is at an end. Perhaps
the triple alliance which expires natur-
ally in year is to terminate by the
Balkan war just now The action of
Russia, France and England may de-
termine, for their entente is the deter

IL very plainly asserted, as punishment
for Lieutenant Governor Clarke who
had denied the right Of the editor Of
the Register and Leader to make and
censor his committee appointments.
His candidacy was approved and fur
thered by certain others over the state
with sufficient reasons of their own. It
was as artificial as paper posy. There
is nothing definite to it today. The
candidate has not told us whether he
is one thing or another, what meas
ures he favors, what issues he stands
for, whether he is progressive or
standpat or anything else except that
he stands for an indefinite greater
Iowa." the meaning Of which he has
failed to explain. Nobody, even
those whose mouths are full Of great
er Iowa knows what it means VIII
someone rise and outline anything Mr..
Holden proposes to do and indicate
how or with what it is to be done?
LATE Young is logical candidate.
He stands for the old corporation crew,
for the conditions pre-e0stent to Cum
Minis and the cleanup. The man who
wants reaction TO those good old days
of corporate control should vote for
Lafe.
Kenyon is logical candidate. To-
day he represents progressiveness in
politics. He stands for trust prosecu-
for the square deal between the COR
porate interests and the people In
which the corporations shall have ev-
cry right under competitive conditions
and the people shall have their rights
also Kenyon and Young represent
very fully the two sides of the history
making struggle which is going on.
But Holdens candidacy seems to
represent nothing definite. This great
er Iowa" issue is the platform of every
Iowan 1t is no mans slogan, no mans
issue We are all individually and coll
lectively for a greater Iowa. We have
made her great and are making her
greater day by day. Holdens insist
ence that the greatness Of Iowa de-
ponds upon him is less serious than
laushable. 1t is as tho an expert ma :
chinist in the shop were to insist the
Northwestern line would dwindle and
peter out unless he We're elevated to
the superintendencE. 1t is Illogical and
that is why it has met meager re-
Spouse.

LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR VAN LAMP

Senator Van Law ended his cam
paign for the lieutenant governorship
Friday. 1t has been a very satisfactory
campaign from personal and party
standpoints. AS between himself and
his opponent there has been neither
personal assault or i'll feeling Of any
kind between the candidates for the
Neutenancy. 1t has been contest
without quarrels or bitterness between
the candidates themselves OK their sup
portsrs.
Senator Van Laws candidacy has
been one OF the best received OF any
offered the state Il years From one
end Of the state to the other the news
Iapers have approved the man. his
work in the legislature and in most In
stances his candidacy. The symposium
of praise which has met his announce
ment concurs as to his ability. bis fair
ness and industry.
Van Law VIII poll a heavy vote Mon
day. He viii be nominated. He should
poll every progressive vote because ne
is now and always has been progress
siye. He will conquer thousands OF
votes from the other side of the politi-
cal fence which viii come to him in
srite Of the fact that he Is known and
accepted as progressive by all factions.

of the value Of the man In public life

that the proposed proposition waa
right. Ask any man who knows Van
Law we'll and he will at once reply:
Van is square; you can count on
that"
These are facts. And these facts
count nightly in any mans favor
who aspires to state office In Iowa.
Somehow these facts seem to have
gotten abroad in Iowa concerning the
Marshalltown senator. Among stand
patters, democrats or progressives,
anywhere in Iowa that the name OF
Van Law happens to be mentioned,
the admission will at once DC
heard, HE is a good man." And with
this goes the plain inference that ne
is the kind Of man we are looking Tor
A reputation Of this kind is rich
heritage. 1t is something worth striv-
ing for. Van Law has lived a clean
life and been faithful to his duties
as man and as a citizen. And to
his integrity Of character he has
added wisdom, discretion and firmness
in standing fair and square against
evil and in support of good. The pros
pect is that he will be high man in
the running June 3.
Van Law stands for lieutenant gov
ernor before Iowa republicans, not as a
factionalist or rank partisan, but as
an honest. efficient and high minded
citizen and an approved public serv-
ant. II adds nightly to ones faith IL

TIE LOGICAL CANDIDATES.

There ara two logical candidates Tor
governor Clarke is one and Proud
foot the other. One is a progressive,
the other a standpatter. They repre-
sent the political differences between
republicans.
Proudfoot's candidacy came from the
necessity of the Carroll Young coterie
It had to have a candidate representa-
tive OF It's brand Of standpatism.
Proudfoot Is a standpatter OF the ex-
IRENE type. His candidacy is repre-
sentative and logical.
Clarke's candidacy grew 1t came
naturally. He worked his way toward
1t from the time he left his farmland
labor to teach school and work his way
thru college to profession. The man
who do this incline toward public serv-
ice. 1t is part Of the am bition which
drew them toward higher education
and sustained them thru the long years
of struggle and endeavor. Moreover
men turn to this type when they seek
representatives. It is trustworthy
type, capable. efficient by test. So
Clarke came to the Legislature, logi-
natural process. He made good there
as elsewhere. He worked hard. gained
a working knowledge of statecraft. be-
came speaker of the house, came to the
senate and the lieutenant governship
by merited promotion. His is the most
logical candidacy of all.
Mr.. Holden's is an illogical candi-
6acy Nobody ever thought of such a
candidacy until Ernie Moore scored
