CONDITIONS

(From the Cedar Rapids Gazette.)
Only a little while ago English pa
pers were criticistng the policy Of
the United States in Mexico assert
ing thai IN ALL PARTS OF THE
WORLD, EXCEPT IN AMERICA,
BRITISH SUBJECTS WERE SAFE.
The United States was held up to
scorn as the nation most careless of
international obligations, the ad-
ministration at Washington "well
meaning but inefficient" The Uni
ted States could have thrown an
army into Mexico-could have done
on a smaller scale the thing that
Europe, insane with hate of race
and human rights, is, doing today.
There were some, but they were few
who advocated such a .headlon'
course to ruin. Americans in the
composite are sane. Knowing their
rights they know them to be broader
| than the rights that must be con-
| ceded to others. Judged by what
has transpired, if the United States
was governed for the same ends that
engage the attention of European ru'
ers, Mexican independence would moi
be safe for a dav. Disregarding the
right of men to determine their owr
method of rule the Mexicans would
be subjugated and those Of suffi
cient spirit to resist would be shot
down.
Whatever European citizens maj
have learned of methods of govern
ment is now Of no avail. They could
not If they would apply even one
idea for the improvement and ad'
vancement of. the commonwealth o.

GOV. ,cLARKE'S DOWNFALL.

M n 3 81 -
GOV. cLARKE's DOWNFALL.
The county auditors OF theis state
have been advised by the executive
council consisting Of Gov. Clarke.
the Secretary Of State, Auditor Of
State and Treasurer of State that
the tax levy Of 1914 win remain the
same as that Of 1913, at 20 mills on
the dollar.
This IS a great disappointment to;
all those whose taxes are considered
most excessive and places the re
publican ticket In jeopardy--in fact
makes Nthe election 3of q democratic.
governor almost . certainty.
Taxes IN 1913 were greatly in
creased in 81 OF the counties OF the
state and would have been largely
increased in all but for the fact
that 12 counties ignored or refused
the executives order to make the
increased levy. These twelve coun-
ties are: Butler, Clarke, Decatur,
Hardin, Louisa. Madison, Marshall 1ail
Osceola, Shelby, Wayne, Winnebago
and Wright. But these counties are
not to escape and have been order
es BY the executive council to make!
good on their deficit" and to make.
the levy for 1914 as ordered by the.
executive council; in 1918.
Just what the average 1918 per-
centage OF raise has been on the.
Iowa farms Sinthe different counties is
not yet known. But someone has
made a inspection OF the tax lists
I'M Adams county and has discovered
that the taxes on farm lands In that
county were increased ~ per cent: in
1918.
Is it any wonder that under such
state OF affairs that Iowa ((the
only state in the union) should lose
in population? Indeed If this is to
continue the loss in populationfswin
continue and wors yet, population:
win not be the states only losses.
While the executive council was
in session at Des Moines the demo
cratic governor OF Ohio (who be-
lieyes you can not tax the people;
.rich) called the legislation Of that,
state in special session to reduce
taxation and actually did reduce the:
levy for state purposes 50 per cent
leaving 100000. OF taxes in the
peoples pockets. SA# n;
II Iowa ever needed a business gov:
ernor it is now. And the people
are most fortunate in having as e:
candidate on the democratic ticket
John !, Hamilton IMAM whose.
public and private record has ever
been for efficiency and economy and
whoNwill lead back to solid ground
and "a Topping OFT Of those burdens
which stunt the sgrowthsso f. %cities4and

Belgium with an area scarcely one
fifth as large as the state Of Iowa,
has furnished the first surprise OF
the present great war. No one imag-
inedsfor a moment that such a lit
tie country could successfully check
the great German army and give
the forces of France and England
sufficient time to prepare for It's
attack. If the Germans are defeated
in the great battle with the allied
forces they may properly charge
their defeat to the Belgians.
