STARTING A NEW PAPER OR PARTY.

Persistent announcement that the
progressive party is TO have candidates
on the ticket for every office in every
distric; promises a situation that must
be met by everybody except the demo-
Gratis when plans are laid next spring.
What is the purpose Of it, and way
Manifestly one of two ohpects only;
either to maintain a party organization
or to win an election. One or the other
is thought necessary in order to en-
force progressive principles upon the
political thought of the nation.
Last year we probably had as much
occasion for progressive candidates
and voting as we will ever have and
the result was universal democra tic
success at the polls except where there
was fusion. Wherever the old republic
can candidates were considered pro-
gressive they were elected and now we
have pust seen similar success in a
congressional election in Maine.
If progressives embued with pro-
gressive principles can be elected to Of
flee on a republican ticket by means
Of fusion is not the fusion idea going
to advance progressive purposes much
faster than the three cornered cam
paign which guarantees democratic
success before it begins?

is far easier to rehabilitate and reform
the policies Of an esta bIished newspa :
per than ia start a new one. Going
condition is of value regardless OF
decripitude but especially IS il desirable
to revive moribundity within ones own
control than to revive il by competition
and have its new life to fight for SUI
premacy.
What has become wise in the pub
fishing business finds much of a paral-
lei in politics. Granted that the re-
publican party Of Barnes and Taft be-
came moribund and failed utterly to
fl its field. Granted that there be-
came great public demand for new
paper Take the advice of publishing
experience for century and take over
the old plant when you can rather than
to start new paper. The moribund
sheet will De compelled TO revive when
You arrive with the new one and with
three papers in the field the democratic
contemporary Will get away With the
business. Acquire the franchise of the
old party, put new men in every de-
partment. fly the flags of new policies
from its place of business and the in
evitable defeats of a three cornered
fight can be avoided.
Wherever this is possible in politics
why is it not the wiser policy in poll
ties as We'll as in the newspape bust
ness?

THOMAS Ep,soN's CASE.

Edison believes that a man can work
twenty hours day and has lived up to
his belief. Some weeks ago he found
that the twenty hour business seemed
to be growing onerous and on advice
he took a vacation. He came from the
vacation worse than when he went and
now his doctors tell him that he
mustn't take vacations: they don't
agree with him. They also tell him that
he mustn't work, that he must rest.
And there Mr.. Edison is.
He can't play because he has never
learned how. He can't work because
the doctors will not let him. He can't
rest because he doesn't know how.
Resting Is the hardest work any man
ever does under orders. What is Edi-
son to do?
Mr. Edison as a public servant and
inventor Of magic machines and ap-
planes is one man. Edison. speaking
for Edison and Edison's family and
friends is another man. It will not mat
ter so much to the public If Edison dies
comparatively young or spends his
last days physical wreck The public
viii sympathize in the public's way but
1t Will still have the results of his
twenty hour day labors to console il.
But Edison is the only Edison he has
and that his folks and friends have. He
can't invent a machine to take his
strength he has spent so lavishly by
turning his nights into days of labor.
OF course he Is rich but what is that to
q man who can not work, who can not
play, who can not rest?
It isn't selfish but sensible for man
to take care of himself. 1t might be
that II Edison had worked eight hours
q day and played four and siep seven
and rested three that something would
have been left for somebody else to IN
vent and discover. but it is pretty sure
that he would be in much better shape
to live happily and make those with
whom he livss happy. After ALL when
the man himself is considered success
isn't so much in mighty accomplish
ment and a noted name as in living
and living happily. AS things stand we
who walk under the bright lights, lis
ten to the phonograph, watch the NOV
les and enjoy and benefit by Edison 5
mechanical lamentations have long
way the best of him.
There are more things to be consid-
cred as preparation for the time when
a man shall age and grow weak than
wealth and place. A happy old man
is the finest product OF the years OF
strength and purposefulness.

A SIDE LIGHT on DIVORCE.

QUE ItoH v" btsSi'
When a woman applied for a divorce
he other day IN Polk country her pas
tor, perhaps the most prominent Metho-
dist preacher in the state appeared as
a witnessifor her and was consulted By
the court in an advisory capacity
Asked by the judge fer his opinion re-
decree he replied that the best interests
Of the family would be thus served.
And on the evidence and Rev Medbury's
advice the woman was granted an alb
solute divorce.
With the wave Of more or less hyster-
teal outcry against divorce this wars
brave thing for the preacher to do. He
was without any doubt right and the
advice he gave the court was sensible.
The evidence showed a state Of affairs
In that family which made the home
a hell upon earth for the woman and
an unfit place for the rearing of chill
dren, II there are or might be any.
Things had come to the PASS that the
family was not family bat warning
prison. And when they have come to
this the sooner separation occurs the
better for the principals, their children
and their friends and relatives
The minister recognized as every one
divorces sought and granted are
next door to vice. there are in
Vulnerable cases where a decree is
not only sensible but humanitarian.
Thts woman may marry again. Why
not? She seems to ge a good woman
who fooled herself into believing she
had found a prize when sLc had met
with an accident.
The divorce evil does not begin with
the divorce court. Divorce Is not a
crime or menace against society. but
an effort to protect both individuals
and society. The root of the evil goes
farther back and grows like a weed
in the gardens Of the race, the upbring-
ing Of children, in social frivol and
men take husbands with less investiga-
ton than men Of ordinary business

When a good woman marries a bad and
worthless man she does it mainly thru
ignorance. She has been taught trigo-
nometry and had two years Latin but
I she has not been taught or told the
most serious things of life. She doesn't
know She doesn't understand mar
riaxe as a contract She is brought up
to the idea of marriage as sacrament
and state OF beatitude and the serious
side of the contract she accepts is given
small attention. We teach our girls
more music than cookery.

Editor Register and Leader:

Editor Register and Leader:
Our county board of supervisors were
dumfounded this week to learn that the
new Brockway road law made it man
datory for them to levy three mills
for road purposes, whereas, last year
our board levied one tenth OF one mill
and few counties in the state levied to
exceed one mill. You will remember
that we thought Brother Brockway
was reactionary but we must give II
to him this time. While YOU We're
pleading for levy of one mill for
state road fund and while ! was in
sisting that we use the auto tax money
for state fund Brother Brockway
put thru a bill that compels every
county in the state to levy three mills.
Marshall county will next year col
ect $4,000 road tax and receive near
ly $1,000 auto license money. The
chairman of our board wants to know
what to do with all this money. The
first thing to do, of course. will be to
reduce all road beds to the engineers
permanent grades and we will see more
hill cutting done in Iowa next year
than has been done in twenty years
before and yet Brockway's three mill
levy with us is still less than our
bridge fund levy. II will cost the owner
Of u quarter section of 5000 land about
Sc per annum.
However. l want you 10 remind the
people of this state that if Brockway
could have given us law for issuing
twenty year road bonds county or
state. as two-thirds Of our states now
authorize and if he had also pro-
vided the special road district for as
sessing nearby land specially bene-
fitted. Marshall county could with TINS
three mill levy in twenty years pay us

There is general approval Of the
idea which the Burlington retail mer

annual fall opening. The proposition
which has been so enthusiastically

THIRTY YEARS AGO on THE FARM
Manson Journal

Manson Journall
Farming now is not what it was thir-
" years ago. either in Iowa on other
parts Of the country. The writer has a
very vivid recollection of how it was
done at that time. The farm on which
we lived. the old Bacon farm in Twin
Lakes township. was typical of most
Of the big farms in this part Of the
state. In those davs, after the long.
bleak winters we used to look long
ingly for the first farbingers of spring.
The warm winds from the south would
start the snow in early March and
some times not until the first of April.
With the water from the early snow s
that flied the ponds cane the first
focks OF ducks. brant and geese. AZ
the SHOWS disappeared. the frost COM
nenced 10 issue forth from the prairie
sod. The sod laid as the plows had left
it the year before On the hills 1t was
fairly tender. but on the flats 1t was
as rubber. Us bows would start in with
our teams OF yoke of cattle and some
times one span of horses. This farm
hoasted of one span Of hcrses aftho
there were many OF them that did not
have a horse on the farm for num-
her of years after the first sod was
turned. The machine used for putting
the ground in condition was small
drag usually in "A" shape. pointed at
the end ana farng at the but. THIS
machine usually contained two orfhree
sets of teeth such as are now USED on
drags.
The first few times over the 500
this machine would bounce around IKE

tell where you had been. 1t would
some times take as high as ten times
over TO get enough dirt loose on the
sod to cover the grain. We did not nave
the pulverizers that we have nova
days. that cuts thru to the bottom OF
the sod every time over. and iteraA'
slice the sod up in narrow rlboons.
Such a machine was unknown IN any
part of the country. 1t came into use
after the worst of the sod had peen
plowed UP and put into cultivation.
After the ground had gotten INTO
fairly good condition. the seed was
sown and the work of covering was
commenced. The drags were as small
that only a few acres a day could pc
covered unless you had good many
teams to do the work. At best only
about one-half the seed could be COW
