Des Moines, Sept. s.-What IL to be
accomplished by the equal suffrage tour
across tho state conducted by the
women? Will votes be made for their
cause? Is this the right way to appeal
to the people Of the state for the
amendment Of the state constitution?
The writer accompanied the party
part way to seek an answer to these
pertinent question, to catch the spirit
Of the movement and to inquire into the
feeling Of the people on the subject.
In the first place. 1t Is true. as the
governor told the ladies In his little
speech. that after all the greatest re-
suit Of any meeting or series OF meet
ings is not to be had from those who
attend but from the newspaper public
ity which follows by and thru which
an infinitely larger number are reached.
At these meetings the attendance is
small. Not very many persons. either
male or female. attend the meetings.
But for that matter public political
meetings have not been largely at
tended and will not be in the future.
The public meeting is not favorite
with the public. The tour of the equal
suffragists thru Iowa is intended to be
largely for advertising purposes. to
advertise not alone to the people III
the towns along the way but to all In
the state. the fact that this question
of abolishing the sex test of citizenship
is to be before the people next year
From this viewpoint and this alone can
the tour be regarded as success. AT
Abel, there was not to exceed twenty
five voters present at the meeting. This
was. however. largely because 1t was an
afternoon meeting on one of the most
disagreeahle days of the year. The
speaking was good. And the picnic
dinner which followed was better
1t was n good thing to start the tour
by first stop at the delightful little
town that is the home Of the governor
What the governor said was to the
point. He did not come out with a
sweeping Endorsement Of equal suffrage
as the panacea for all ills. What he
said was. in substance, that the time
has come when public sentiment de-
mands that this question be put right
up to the voters. The women demand
it and they have a right to go before
the people and seek their Endorsement
1t may or it may not meet the APP
proval of the male voters Of the state

CASE ARGUED IN DECEMBER
Tax Suit for Capitol Grounds Ready
for Presentation by Cosson.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. Sept. 6.-Attroney Cen
eral Cosson has finished the prepara-
ton Of the argument for the people
OF the state in the suit brought to pre-
vent carrying out the will of the legis-
lature in the matter OF a half mill tax
for needed state purpose. Attorneys
for the constitutionalists will have time
to prepare a printed argument and 1T is
hoped to get the case ready for the
submission to the court at the Septem-
Der term. Because Of the decision Of
the court to make the last period of
each term the one for the full bench
the case will not be argued to the

Mr.. Cosson has, Of course treated
the case In q strictly impersonal way
and argued that the sole question -
one as to the full extent OF tho author
ity Of the state In taxation matters. He
has controverted the claim made on
the other side that the taxing power Of
the people Is limited. He takes issues
with Hunter and agrees with Apples
gate on the proposition as to the
divisbilty Of statute and insists that
n defect in part need not invalidate the
whole law.

BEET YIELD

A special TO the Denver Repub-
lican under date of Aug. Is, from
Fort Collins, contains the follow
ing:
According to present indica-
tions the harvest of sugar beets
and the consequent campaign" at
the local factory of the Great West
ern sugar company will begin soon.
The first preliminary tests indicate
that the beets this year will be
much higher in sugar than they
have been in previous years and the
tonnage will be heavier. This
means more money for the farmers
who are raising beets in this dis
trict. The first tests made recently
showed that already the beets
carry 10 per cent sugar. The aver
age sugar contents at harvest is
from Is to Is per cent and this
high percentage 30 early in the
season indicates that the final tests
will be away above the average
In this connection it is pleasing
to note that early tests on San
Luis valley beets gave from 10 to
l4.6 per cent sugar. 1t has been
proven that our beets rank among
the highest grown, both in sugar
content and in purity.

Democratic party, denounces the tariff bill. He
has purchased site in Canada for his large manu-

Gov. Foss has grown rich by special taxation
which has favored his business. In Canada, or at

PRESIDENT Roosevelt, in order to stop panic
in 1907, turned $25 900, 900 to the New York
bankers and allowed the suspension of the Sher-
antitrust law long enough for the Steel trust
to gobble up the Tennessee Iron Works-its only

money trust, President Wilson puts S5o,ooo,-
900 into the hands of the farmers and threatens to
put enough currency into circulation to kill

saying they can supply all the cash the farmers
need to move the crops.
