The commission has a big task, and

weak spot il Chicago's social and gov

from effect to cause and this process
OF research may lead it to the people

a governor two years ago IS to muster
no more than 5000 for its primary
nominations this year that party as
third party organization has had III
run.
There was not room for it in Iowa
as the progressives of the state were
in control OF the old republican party
which was the going concern Win

When Cummins and progressives who
had been fifteen years bringing pro-
gress into the old political order re-
fused 10 cast their lot with the new
party but preferred TO retain their
hard earned leadership in party
which offered reasonable hope OF
success the third party movement in
Iowa was doomed TO failure. That is
why the national organizers are gun
ping for Cummins. He spoiled their
chances in Iowa and they DO not like
1t.
Iowa gave Roosevelt 1888 votes in
the fall election Of 1912. She cast 49,

Clarke. SIS, Sol for Holden and 2S.311 for

CATHOLICS IN POLITICS.

1t seems unfortunate that the par
tizan supporters of Maurice Connolly
who seeks the democratic nomination
in opposition to E. T. Meredith at the
primary election on June !. next, should
feel called upon to defend Connolly
religion. Partizan politics is bad
enough. but when parizan religion is
mixed in with partizan politics it be-
comes awful. Experience and common
sense both suggest that partizan re.
fgion should be kept out OF politics.
Connolly Is a Catholic and Meredith II
q protestant, and for anything we
know they are good enough for us to
go to heaven with. both Of them. Con-
molly ought to pray to b> delivered from
his fool friends.

ing Cummins for his decision to leave
his campaign in the hands OF friends.
They would have US believe tina. they
would prefer to have him spend his
time in Iowa while drawing a salary

Judge Lees friends now claim that
he is eligible because the newspapers
supporting Clarke did not protest ad-
hitting his name to the primary ballot.
Bless you, boys, Clarke would noc have
had anybody to run against had Lee
been kept off the ballot. His friends
can't afford to be technical without
seeming to be unfair and afraid. The

AMEND THE LAW.
(Cs1tpton rHcr~lAO =,


All over Iowa, one Of the chief causes
OF internal dissensions In cities 10 the
question of improvements, chiefly paw.
! ing and sewers.
Why Is 1t that everyone Is In favor
of improvements. but that over half OF
tho property owners protest against
paying their share Of the cost? 10 IT
"tig htness," or 10 It some provision In
the law which makes payment for I'm :
provements a burden on the average
citizen?
Many people condemn those who pro-
test, without considering that they
may have valid grounds for objection.
and that these grounds may be re-
moved.
Under the Iowa Law. improvements
are paid for in seven yearly INSTALL
nents. The only necessity. governing
the number OF installments. Is that the
improvement shall be paid for durins
its period OF usA Experience shows
that paving and sewers last from
twenty Ave to thirty years. Then Is

seven-year.

steps forward in municipal improve
ments. But the way Is fraught with
dissension and hardships Why not
make it easier?

FIRE HAZARDS on THE FARM.
IClinton Advertiser

LClinton Advert!ser.l
Human carelessness is said to be
responsible for nine-tenths OF the ma
tons fire loss.
II this is true in the cities. where a
reasonable supervision TO secure fire
prevention is observed, II is certainly
true Of the nree that do damage on tho
farms. Rural fire hazards have in
creased in recent years because Of the
more general and growing use OF gaso-
lene engines, automobile and the nee
essary storage Of gasolene. They are
more oil and gasolene stoves in farm
houses than there used to be, and this
has been a contributing factor.
State Superintendent Of Insurance
Revel!e is working for IRE proven
ton in Missouri, not forgetting the
Missouri farm. Since January, 1914,
he has been Investigating rural fires
and their causes. The result has
been the starting Of Fire Prevention
League among the farmers They
pledge themselves carefully to observe
twelve simple, common sense rules for
preventing farm fires. The observance
Of them Will not cost a cent. Nor
will It cost cent to sign the leagues
safety pledge. Among other things
they insist that coal oil and sasolens
shall be kept in metal cans mad de-
tached buildings.
Superintendent Revelle believes the
plan will reduce the states FIRE losses

Khaki For the Navy.

American biuejackets are to dress
in dingy khaki hereafter. instead Of
loyal blue or brilliant white, according
to season ad climate. We do not
know how far this change has reached
foreign navies. but IL has overtaken
every foreign army that has seen
service. The British red. the Austrian
white the French particolor. have re-
tired to dress parade. Only the Rus
sian gray persists. Khaki 10 the only
wear in service.
Science and invention have changed
the whole front OF war profoundly.
The close grip Of opposing Greek
phalanxes survives chiefly in the foot
ball field Armies spread out on
firing lines long and miles apart pot
each other as far az they can see
from vantages masked by typography
and inconspicuous dress. Invisibility
in person. arms and fortihcations has
superseded the old frownins front OF
menaces and terror.
Navies have followed armies but
slowly in the protective dress analog-
Gus to the natural selection Of birds
and animals, because seamen fight on
water miles apart behind steel walls.
But the landing party in the tropics
10 a mark a. shining as an Austrian
regi ment half q century ago. Tho
American marines and sailors soaked
their white jackets and trousers in
coffee or mud for the dance among
Mexican bullck at Vera Cruz.
Now the khaki uniforms have
reached the feet, and the transformed
blueJackets can play the modern game
Of war like their comrades OF the
army. War began a Kaleidoscope

hasten with every generation till the
game becomes too deadly for any to
