case of high classed hotels, they

a flying machine. OF course it new
er occurred to the Tribune that the
hotels ought to be compelled to re-
duce rates during the state fair. Ho-
tells sometimes cut charges on spec
ial occasions, and as there are those
who demand that the railroads be
required to reduce rates to the fair
because they give excursion rates
outside the state, it might be argu-
ed from the same standpoint that
the hotels ought to be required to
keep visitors for less than the US

A NEWSPAPERS DUTY.

The Mason City Times has no de-
sire to wound the feelings OF any
person through its news or editorial
columns, it remarks editorially. AS
a newspaper, however, duty is to
be performed and that duty is to
give the news. In the hurried daily
rounds of the reporters errors occa-
sionally creep into reports caused by
efforts to suppress the facts by in
dividuals who refuse to give infor-

to err, yet never because of a desire
on the part OF anyone connected
with the paper is news printed to

al request is made to say nothing
about some event. In fact hardly a
day goes by that we do not get one
or more such requests. II 1t is a
minor matter Of no concern to the
public nor Of any especial interest,
the request is gladly complied with.
On the other hand IL the news is
a matter of considerable public in
terest we cannot comply and keep
faith with our constituents. When
a man subscribes for a newspaper
there is an implied contract on the
part Of the newspaper with that sub
scriber to furnish him the news OF
the city, county, state, nation and
world to the best of its ability. The
newspaper assumes an obligation to
do this, and when some one asks
that news be withheld they are ask
ing the newspaper to break faith
with the man with whom the paper
has contracted to furnish what he
wants.
The Times is not looking for
scandals nor for private life sensa-
tions to make racy reading for the
public. The Times is looking daily
for real news TO fill the contract we

The Webster City Freeman-Trib'
une calls attention to the fact that
neither the Denison Review nor The
Sioux City Journal has signified in.
tention to support Bert Keltz, dis.
tinguished citizen of Webster City

in its announcement the further i'm.

not long ago, "are loosely drawn in
Iowa." and the Journal further
stated in another issue that it was
an independent republican paper.
That the Journal places emphasis
upon the independent" is evident
by its course in recent years. In
fact, 1t has shown a disposition tt
support Pepper, yet it would hardly
permit itself to be classified as a
democratic paper. Hence there was
no occasion for considering whether
or not the Journal was bull moose

1t did not declare for Mr.. Keltz.

ator finds that Iowa produces in ag-
riculture, manufacturers and miner
ais total annual value of $1,096,-
9SS,280 and New Jersey produces
values of $1,277,643,2S7. The new
bill levies tariffs upon these produc-
lions, assuming that the average i'm
post duty will be rs per cent, as
follows: Iowa dutiable, $472,914,-
934, free $597,O73,346, forty-four
per cent of Iowa's products being
subject to duty. The dutiable list
in New Jersey amounts to $1,011,-
877,55S and the free list to $685.
965,729, the dutiables being 80 per
cent of the total.
How do the people of Iowa like
that kind of discrimination? As
Stunning that the tariff is always a
tax, and assuming further that Iowa
consumed what New Jersey produces
and New Jersey consumed what
Iowa produces, Iowa would pay New
Jersey on account of the tariff $780,
375,512 and New Jersey would pay
Iowa $94,582,9S7. Verify, the school
master seems to understand how to
take care of his native state at the
expense of Iowa and, as is further
shown, he knows how to take care
Of the entire east at the expense Of
the west. The comparison between
Iowa and New Jersey is substantial
lily comparison between eastern
and western states and is not Sc
lected in this article for any other
reason than Iowa is the home OF
Senator Cummins and New Jersey is
the home of President Wilson, the
man who made the tarin bill.
Under the same reasoning it is
found that Nebraska and Minnesota
will pay Massachusetts, on account
of the tariff s2o4,57o,7s1 and Mas
sachusetts will pay Nebraska and
Minnesota only $11s,600,799.
Taking the entire country Senator
Cummins finds the total value of the
productions west OF the Mississippi
river is $10.3o1,016,313 and the to-
tai value east Of the river is $24,-
I914,673,O48. The dutiable list west
of the river amounts TO 80 per cent
Of the total and the free list to 81
per cent. East of the river the du.
table list is 60 per cent and the
free list is 40 per cent.
"Take a large group of states,

OF course the streets are not a

they race tracks for automobiles.
But there is a law against motor
power vehicles going more than ten
miles an hour upon the streets Of a
town and there should be law re-
curing the children to keep off the
streets while at play. Small boys are
in the habit of using the streets for

practice makes accidents more like.

Col. Pete Hepburn, who for twen-
ty years or more was member OF
congress from Iowa and who made
record in the civil war that is a
credit to him, is still full of fire and
vinegar and declares that If he were
young man he would recruit a
company of calvary in Iowa and get
in readiness for the war with Mex
leo, which he thinks is bound to
come. He takes no stock in the
Mexican policy Of the administration
and asks: How can you expect a
school teacher and Chautauqua
lecturer to evolve a wise diplomatic
policy?" The colonel says now is
the opportunity for the young man
having desire for military honors
and the capacity to make record.
The colonel is not 1our-nusner,
whatever may be said OF him. He
demonstrated when he was a young
man that he had the courage to
shoulder a musket and go to the
front. He never failed to do his du-
ty as a soldier and he no doubt tells
the truth when he says he would
now be getting ready for the COM
ing war if he was less than forty
years of age. The old colonel must
be approaching eighty, but for all
that he is still vigorous and cour-
ageous.

Several of our exchanges, in COM
menting upon the suggestion that
automobiles be made to stop at rail-
road crossings offered by Capt.
Smith in contribution to the Free
man-Tribune a short time ago, en-
dorse the idea. 1t would certainly
eliminate a lot OF accidents of the
most distressing kind. Probably
more lives are lost in in-automo-
bile collisions at grade crossings
than in any other manner of acct
dents. Then why not put a stop to
it? An automobile driver would not
lose more than minute or two in
coming to a full stop. If his time
were SO valuable that he could not
afford that loss he might make it
up by going fifty miles instead Of
forty for a short distance. 1t really
doesn't matter, though, how much
of a hurry a driver may be in, he
ought to be compelled to give due
consideration to his own safety and
to the passengers who may be in the
car with him. The suggestion OF
Capt. Smith is certainly a good one
and it is very likely that the legisla-
ture will before many years enact a
law requiring all auto drivers to
come to full stop before crossing a
railroad. Such law would be en-
forced, because the railroads would
see to that end of it.
Good for Des Moines. The city
council of that city doesn't propose
that visitors shall be fleeced by
boarding and rooming houses. 1t
has been the custom in Des Moines
during state fair and convention
time, when many visitors were in
the city looking for accommodations,
to overcharge for lodging and meals.
Some fellow would stand upon the
street corner and announce that
lodging for the night could be had
at such and such a place for 81.
Then the next morning when the
visitor marched up to the captain :
Office to pay his account he was in
formed that his bill was 50. He
would protest and tell of the man
upon the street assuring him that il
would cost him but 81 to stay at
that house all night. The suave
clerk would then gently inform the
customer that nobody had any such
authority and the 80 must be paid.
The city council has outlawed this
sort Of thing. Persons running
boarding or rooming houses must
take out a license and must state
upon application for the license just
what their regular charges will be.
Then If they charge more than that

THE WORKINGMAN's CHOICE

Northwestern Christian Advocate:
An Illinois mail carrier overheard a
conversation while on his rounds
the other day that is worth giving
to our readers. He happened in a
saloon just as a customer was loud
ly expatiating on the high cost OF
living. With many coarse adject-
ives he was setting forth the difficult
ties of supporting a family these
days, giving the details of high
prices with which we are all famil-
lar. Among other things he men
toned milk. Just think Of it"
said he, milk eight cents quart!
How is poor man going to buy
milk for a large family at such
prices as that?" All of which is
true. But what lent ridiculous
pathos to the situation was the fact
that he forthwith began to ask for
the prices OF the various brands Of
whisky. In answer to his inquir-
les the bartender quoted prices as
follows: The best grade, $3.50 per
quart; another grade for $1.25. and
still cheaper article for $1.00 a
quart.
The customer studied moment
and remarked that he could not af-
ford the best, but that he would
take a quart of the $1.25 brand.
There is food for reflection In
that transaction. Milk, eight cents
quart; whisky, $1.25 quart. The
breadwinner buys the whisky
Query: do his children get the
milk?
We all understand that the prob
lem of the high cost Of living is a
most complicated one; that the sit
uation with the laboring man who
spends his money judiciously, is a
serious one. But what makes the
situation most lamentable is the fact
that so many give the price of over
fifteen quarts of nourishing milk fol
one quart of poison.
When will our laboring men
awake to the tragic folly of such a
deal?

have made with our readers to sup
ply them with the news. We sim
cerely hope the feelings Of no one
will be hurt by this news but II
they are they should remember they
should not put themselves in a posi-
ton where their feelings can be
hurt. We expect to continue giving
the news and give it as accurately
as possible. If occasionally only one
side of a story is obtainable and in
|accuracies occur, we stand ready to
give the other side Of it if there is
another side, and our attention is
called to it.
If people who are afraid of hav-
ing their feelings hurt would give
the newspaper the exact facts, in
stead of trying to suppress the pub
LEGATION of the news, they would
save themselves much anguish.
Grief comes in trying to mislead the
newspapers, just as it comes in try
ing to fool the Judge. Both the news
paper and the judge forget their
charity when they are compelled to
seek the facts from other witnesses.
A piece of news in which the facts
are given in the newspaper causes
less injury to the parties implicat-
ed than when suppressed and circu-
lated by gossip.
It pays the individual as well as
the newspaper to tell the truth.
