Boss Murphy of Tammany, de-
clares that Tammany's defeat is only
temporary. And judging from his
tory the boss is right. 1t is only
when the people are aroused that
such corrupt machines are over
thrown. When overthrow they US

til the people forget, then they are
back in the ring as strong as ever.
Eternal vigilance is the price of hon

but the ringsters, never. They re-
tain power by using the taxpayers
money to reward their supporters
and henchmen and it is only occa-
that taxpayers awaken suf-
ficiently to turn the rascals out.

erliness ruled the roost. Trouble
came with accumulation as trouble
is like to come. The family was all
right until it inherited property.
In the division, as often happens
in the best regulated families, the
row began with the casting Of lots
over the garments of departed re-
publican Office holders.
1t is as tho Cain had come back
to object to favors granted Abel. 1t
is like Shep when Rover gets the
bone. It is case of alienation Of
political affections. He'll hath no
fury like politician scoEned after
years of waiting.
1t is a shame. Sympathy it is i'm
possible to refuse. All these years
have they sat with hungry and slav-
ering chops viewing with alarm the
incumbency OF republicans and de-
nouncing annually at state conven-
lions. And now those who were
most frightened and alarmed and
whose voices rose above others in
denunciation fail to catch the eye Of
the imperial democrat who has sue
ceeded the peerless leader as the
hope of the democracy.
There is nothing like poverty to
make good company and draw men
together in a common friendliness.
Where nobody has nothing nobody
else is envious. But with the ad-
vent of the meat wagon the menag-
erie begins to roar and the animals
to switch their tails. Prosperity is
harder to bear than adversely, hard
er for the prosperous to bear meekly
and for the disappointed and needy
to suffer under comparison.
So the democracy of Iowa is
bounding and humping like a ball
in a bagatelle board against the pins
set up for marshalships and senator
ial nominations and postmasterships
and all the possibilities of place and
profit for which the late election dis
aster is responsible. The gentle
spirit Of the once beautiful demo-
cracy of Iowa has turned to gall.

STAY IN IOWA.

Gov. Clarke is driving home some
telling arguments in favor Of Iowa
and progress. In a recent address
he advised Iowans to stay in Iowa,
at the same time pointing out some
of its advantages. He made the pre-
diction that our country schools and
our country roads are going to make
marvellous progress in the next few
years and that the state Is just en-
tering upon a period of great i'm
provement and progress. He said:
I'VE are just entering upon the
days of greatness in Iowa. Many
have been the achievements of the
past, but they are just merely the
beginning. We are getting great
spirit, a great Iowa spirit, and that
is the thing that counts. One COM
munity In Iowa could not prosper
without its prosperity extending to
every other community in Iowa. And
so we should develop this spirit of
hopefulness.
1T is said that our rural schools
are where they were fifty years ago.
Today, though, we are on the TIRES
hold of a mighty change in our
schools that will come shortly like
the rush of waters in the breaking
of a dam and with the food will
come consolidated schools and sur
faced roads and other improvements
needed to put our rural education
upon a solid and substantial basis.
Iowa is ready for a great develop
ment, ready to take the step forward.
We ought to be all ready and willing
for this progress to come and we
ought to show our spirit by helpful
ness. We have here the foundation
of great people and great state.
Stay in Iowa and help her develop.

been made among those interested to
have candidates for reelection and
other candidates keep down cam

one could depend upon the word Of

They are having a warm newspa-
per discussion in Waterloo over the
expense of funerals and it is claimed
that it costs exhorbitant prices to
bury the dead. A Greek workman who
was killed there had $1,000 taken
from his savings to pay funeral ex-
penses and his brothers have brought
suit to recover a part of the amount.
The dead Greek was working for
$3.50 per day and was killed while
employed upon a building in that
city. Certificates of deposit for two
thousand dollars were found upon
his person and his administrator
paid out one thousand dollars of
this money for funeral expenses.
The heirs of the estate now want to
hold the administrator bondsmen
for that portion of the expense that
is unreasonable for man Of the

Senator Cummins ante-dated Pres
ident Wilson about three years in
advocacy of presidential primaries.
Our democratic friends who are now
shouting for that principle should
not overlook this fact entirely when
looking around for reasons in favor
Of such a policy.

A report from Washington is to
the effect that President Wilson is
seriously considering the proposition
of government ownership Of tele-
phone and telegraph lines. He has
held some conferences with Post
master General Burleson upon the
subject and information is now be-
ing gathered from countries where
they have such ownership It is ex-
pected that the president will dis
cuss the questionoin his next message
to congress. Thus far, however, the
president is not committed to the
principle of government ownership,
either of telegraphs, telephones or
railroads.

The ladies at the head of the
woman suffrage movement were so
dumbfounded by President Wilson's
reasons for not advocating universal

that they didn't know what to
say or couldn't think of words to ex-

the credit of President Wilson that
he is the first and only man in his
tory who placed the suffragists in
such a position. One of the leaders,

NOC q lew democrats III ulueTeuL
parts of the state of Iowa are find
ing out that. it did not pay them to
honey around Cummins in the days
gone by. Some Of them are trying
to get postofices now, under demo-
cratic administration, and their pro-
Cummins record looms up in front
of them like an accusing phantom
that will not be silenced. It never
paid any democrat to desert his par
ty and vote for or lend aid and COM
fort to Cummins-Manson Demo-
crat.
Possibly if democrats who support
ed Cummins expected pay in Offices
it did not pay them to aid him. But
there are democrats who vote for
principle or for man simply
through patriotic motives. Demo-
Gratis who believed Cummins was
fighting for the right things and had
confidence in the man, ought to have
supported him. That is, if they did
not have equal confidence in the
ability and integrity of the demo-
cratic candidate and did not think
he stood as strongly for the things
they wanted as Cummins did. When
a voter enters the voting booth he
ought to cast his ballot for the man
whom he believes will serve the peo-
pie best, but the voter who is look
ing for pay" in the form of Office
or other valuable personal consider
alton is not in position to give his
country the best of service with his
ballot.
The esteemed Sioux City Journal
pretends to be unable to see any diff
ference in a legislative or congress
sional caucus held for the purpose of
nominating candidates for the var
ious Offices within the gift of the
legislature or congress and a caucus
held for the purpose of determining
the action of party members upon
economic policies or principles. It is
conceded that the majority party is
entitled to the offices and it is right
and proper that they hold caucus
to determine what candidates shall
have the party vote. There is real
ly no other way open. But when it
comes to matter of principle,
matter of judgment in methods, the
individual members of the legisla-
ture or Of congress ought to be free
to exercise their own convictions.
When the secret caucus steps in and
says a democrat must vote for a
certain thing merely because a ma
jority of democrats are for that
thing, the secret caucus is danger

Senator Cummins says the fact
that President Wilson has come out
for presidential primaries doesn't
make a republican convention for
the purpose of recognizing the
party any the less necessary. There
is no likelihood that the presidents
recommendations will be adopted in
time to affect the next congressional
elections and the republican party
ought to be in position to go before
the country in that campaign freed
from the things that caused the split
in the last national convention.

Judge Wright of Fort Dodge is the
only Judge of the district who has
expressed a desire to remain upon
the bench. Judge Lee announced
some time ago that he would not be
a candidate and Judge Albrook is
still undecided. Judge Wright has
served the district well and brought
ability and devotion to the bench.
That he will prove formidable can
didate is conceded. In fact, all the
present judges of the district are
quite popular among the people. For
the first time judges will this year
be nominated at the primary, same
as other candidates.
