Tho Des Mo.nes Tribune says that
what John T. Hamilton, the demo-
cratic candidate for governor, wants
is iowa to slow down" Well. it looks
as If every one in the world has to
SOW down. They will have to slow
down in Europe,\ too, or they will

that is not to he entirely despised. If
a slow down could be brought about
we would not hear so much about the
high cost of living. which is sometimes
high living. Mr.. Hamilton is old fash
toned enough to believe that it is

that means for a state that it shall

Federal reserve banking system, has
been subjected to criticism by Senator
Cummins in his Iowa speeches, altho
twenty-seven republican votes and fit.
teen Bull Moose votes were cast in
favor Of it. Senator Norris of Ne

was "the most important measure
which has been before Congress since
the civil war Letters have come to
the Treasury Department from all
parts OF the country from bankers

The appointment Of Edwin T..
Meredith, editor of Successful Farming,
at Des Moines,a as one OF theithree di-
rectors of the Federal reserve bank
in the Chicago district to@be, named
by the reserve board, over scores of
candidates, is considered the highest
honor. The most eminent bankers
and, business men in the country
form the directorates Of the twelve
reserve banks. Congressman Connolly
who was opposed by Mr.. Meredith in
the primary forUnited States senator
proposed Mr.. Meredith's name to the
reserve board and used his influence
with Secretary McAdoo and the Fed
eral reserve board in urging favorable
consideration for his candidacy.
Members of the reserve board en-
countered opposition from other
states in the Chicago. district against
the Meredith candidacy, as Iowa had
two directors already in the classes
elected by the banks, while Indiana
had none, but MIR. Meredith's ap-
pointment was urged so persistently
by Congressman Connolly and the
Meredith supporters in Iowa that the
board acted -favorably in his case.

party with which for a quarter of q
century he had been identified and
which kad elected him to office, and

party of that day. ,
Abraham Lincoln's first notable APP
pearance in public life and his first

great contest he waged for the sena-
tofship in Illinois against a near
progressive Of that day, Stephen A
Douglas.
Cummins Like Douglas. '@E3
The situation in Illinois in 1858 is
Fundamentally like that in your own
state of Iowa nov in 1914. A, great
many good people who were devoted
to the essential principles of the then
progressive party advocated that
party's supporting Stephen A.. Doug
las, on the ground that he was a near
progressive-that he was progressive,
enough-and that one or the other
old parties could, by means of such
support be renovated and put in posi-
ton to do the forward work that
had to. be done. In
Cummins a Near.Progressive.
Here in Iowa the republicans who
ask o to support them ON the
ground that they are n~ear-progres-
sives, occupy precisely the position
which the supporters of Stephen A..
Douglas occupied when he ran against
Abraham Lincoln. Their candidates
and principles do not represent real
p~rogressivism any more than Mr..
Douglas and his associates in 1858
represented real progressives. The
.progressives in 1858 had to make the
fight in Illinois if they were true to-
their principles; and just the same
thing is true with the progressives in
Iowa today. In 1853 it would: have
been a good thing if the progressives
could have won, but the next best
thing was to make the fight even
though they lost; and just the same
thing is true in. Iowa today. hope
that the ~progressives will win, but,
win or Jose, they are entitled to the
gratitude Of the country for making
the fight that they are making. The
lines have been drawn SO definitely
that those who are not outright and
openly for us must be counted
against us. 81. ,
Loyalty to Principle, Not to Name.
Senator Cummins and those who
train with him are on a wrong track.
They cannot be true to the old-time
principles of Lincoln and Lincoln's
day as long as they continue their as
sociation with the utterly reactionary
republican machine as now control
led in the nation and in the largest
and most %populous states We must
not let our loyalty to a name blind us
to- existing facts and neither must
we let our kindly feelings toward a
great public leader blind us to the
facts Of the case when that, public
leader follows the wrong course and
takes a position which inevitably
must line him. up with the reaction
aries Of the old parties. The Iowa
~progressives when in 1914 they OPP

:. T. MEREDITH's APPOINTMENT.

Sometimes it is quite as desirable
to be q good loser as to be sue
cessful winner. Mr.. E. T. Meredith
lost the senatorial nomination, but
the admirable manner in which he
took his defeat %endeared him to
Iowa democrats, including Mr.. Con-

His appointment as a member Of

The Knights of the Pencil and Pen.
BY MAI. S. II. NJ. BYERS.

BY MAJ. S. II. NJ. BYERS,
When the knights Of the pen and the pencil,
Enchanters OF women and men,
Like swallows shall visit their roof tree.
What welcome we'll give to them then!
When the writer's of love and romances.
And the poets of beauty and song,
Shall gather like sweet birds of passage,
With hearts that have loved them so long.
May the scenes they revisit remind them
OF days when their fancy was young.
Ere the tales and romances were written.
Or the songs of the poets were sung.
May the brook and the hill and the wildwood
Still call as they called them before,
Ere the laurel was bound On their foreheads
May they drink in these days of October,
These forests of scarlet and gold;
And, touched by the goldenrod's beauty,
New visions Of wonder behold.
May they draw from the wells of their fancy.
New glories of things that are fair,
Things deep as the deep of the ocean.
Things light as the light Of the air.
May the pictures of beauty still linger.
Shortcomings of things that are true
The things that are felt by the many
But only are said by the few.
May the gods and thu muses. be with them
Melromene, Clio, to bring
The fire from Olympian heaven,
The torch that shall burn while they sing.
And we'll see them and look ~ their faces.
These wonderful women and men -
Who captured our hearts and our graces.
These knights Of the pencil and pen. E.si&+,
