ABOUT GAMBLING.

iowa City Citizen.l
Without question gambling should
be stopped in Iowa City. If it has been
permitted to exist Nobody can defend
1t. The way to stop II is the way that
has been adopted-by legal process. II
the city officials should fail to do their
duty. after warning, the Cosson law is
available for just such cases.
We doubt the advisability of extra
ordinary newspaper publicity in con-
nection with the gambling crusade. A
Des Moines paper has spread broad
cast over the state a story that
gambling is going on openly in the
street Of Iowa City, gambling houses
the attorney general of the state will
be called upon to help to better local
conditions.
1t is doubtless true that in every
town in Iowa some gambling goes on.
Iowa City has less OF It than some
towns but more of 1t than others and
recently has apparently had entirely
too much for the good OF the city, and
its people. But Iowa City can not af-
ford to have the impression go out over
the state that II is gambling hole. The
damage to the state university is meal
culable.
Neither can II afford to have any
thing like notorious conditions in exis-
tence
OF course those responsible in the
first place are the officers who permit
it. but in the second place it Is reasona-
BILE to believe that an ounce Of definite
action under the law Is worth a pound
Of sensational newspaper publicity over

A Child in the Street..

A child goes down the busy street
And something seems 10 happen sweet
To every heart and every mind;
The sense Of wanting to oe kind,
And to be cheerful. glows apace
On every brow and every face.
And love no more seems lost and blind

And something makes the world grow
gay;
The summer sun has come again
To warm the wintry hearts of men;
The birds of spring are singing clear,
And every lip is whispering Dear"

Forgets the hard and base and scar
And roses deck the breast of strife.
A child comes by along the pave.
And faces that were sad and grave
Side suddenly as If there blew
A wind Of joy all kissed with dew
From meadows of some finer zone

And thunders roll and lightnings leap
But now these angry forces sleep,

THE LATEST CANCER CURE"

DR.. kelley's bulletins and interviews
regarding the case of a congressman
afflicted with cancer whom the doctor
Is treating with radium are not un-
likely to be accepted for much more
than they are worth and more than
they are meant to say by those suf-
fering from the disease and for that
matter by all Of US who are anxiously
waiting the discovery of a specific for
that disease.
So far the curative results effected
by the use Of radium in cancer have
been confined TO superficial locations
Where the radium may be readily APP
Piled it seems to have excellent cura-
tive effect. Congressman Bremner's
cancer is located on his shoulder. The
radium is applied directly to the seat
of the disease. Tubes Of the radiu.n
are inserted in the diseased tissue
Certain rays sent forth by the remedy
are thrown thru the diseased parts
And it seems TO be doing Bremner a
great deal Of good. Kelley has treated
many cases OF cancer with radiu,n.
Internal cancer he considers incurable
In cases where the seat Of the trouble
may be treated by radium he claims
a considerable proportion OF cures. In
the pictures he shows &C cases treated
thus SO per cent are failures. He does
not make a claim to cure cancer with
radium. He simply finds that il gives
excellent results in cases where the
radium may be directly applied
But there is large hope in the re-
suits he has attained. The cure for
cancer is on the way. Whether it be
radium applied one way or another or
some yet undiscovered remedy the
disease can not against the investi-
cation and skillful experiment goingon,
retain its evil and deadly prominence.
So far the hope is general and not in
dividual, but it is justified hope that
within a few years cancer will have
been conquered.

A CHANCE For FIFTH DISTRICT RoYs.

Application must be between the
ages OF is and 20 years, and residents
of the congressional district from
which appointed. Representative James
". Good has arranged to have DR.. ].
j. Mcconnell, superintendent OF the
city schools at Cedar Rapids, Iowa,
conduct a competitive preliminary
mental examination OF all candidates
for this appointment. at the high school
building at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on
Saturday, Jan. II. 1914. from the result
OF which he will base his recommends
:;ca.
Persons desiring to take the COM
petitive examination should report to

hitting to the mental test present a
certificate Of a physician showing the
applicant &c be 81 sound physical con-

As concerns money and riches and
ease there is little TO covet in the po-
sition Of a United States army officer;
but 1t means a most highly considered

these and who is willing to work hard
for small pay may consider the ex-
animation a splendid opportunity.

against whom the suit u to b en-
tered.
This situation presents some strange
phases. Heretofore attacks on the
established order. including the courts.
have been traceable almost wholly to
progressives. But now comes Mr..
Rowley. arch standpatter. who pro-
poses In his program to overturn both
the state government and the courts.
This. in effect transfers the standards
of political battle in the state: the
standpatters become the Herod pro-
gressives and tho progressives do the
standing pat in sustaining the state
courts and the state administration,
both legislative and executive.
These mixups are on the whole.
healthful. They serve our needs, edu-
cationally. and they keep up out Of
r,its. Very likely when Mr.. Rowley
gets thru with his campaign it will
not be possible to longer distinguish
factional lines in the politics OF Iowa.
The slate will be rubbed clean and

A Cedar Rapids citizen, who has
for years taken a financial interest in
the work of benevolence during the
Christmas season. tells The Gazette
that he has had his eyes opened this
year. For the first time he assisted In
the distribution Of the gifts. the sup
plies of food. etc. He declared that
when he saw the suffering and sorrow
and financial depression which pre-
vailed in some OF the homes he visited.
he was deeply moved: hereafter, said
he, he not only will give his means for
the help of those who are unfortunate
but he will see that more OF his friends
help in the good work, and take an
active personal part on the distribu-
ton
