THE DAMAGE HABIT.

[Des Moines Tribune.]
That old element Of damages for
public improvements threatens to stand
In the way Of the raise in the East
Walnut grade
Just why the people should have got
ten into the damage" ha'bit in Iowa,
and just why they have stood to be
mulcted by property owners whose
properties were the chief 5enefciares
Of the public activity, it would be hard
to say.
But 1, has become one of the estab-
lished features Of Iowa law that the
public, when it would do a really good
thing for the city and for adjacent:
property at the same time. must pay
damages"
When East Locust was raised and
paved, the greatest single improve
nsnt east of the river in late years.
and one that has done more to benefit
everybody. the question Of damages
was at once raised.
The digging down of West Ninth,
which has made that the main thor
oughfare Of the city north and south, is
still matter Of damages" with adj
Jacent property owners.
1t is plain that viaduct or a public
Improvement of that sort might ac.
tua!!y damage adjacent property. II
IS absurd to talk about the new grade
on East Locust being a damage to the
a01acent property. And it is equally
ABSURD to talk about a new grade on
Walnut as a damage to anybody.
1t is time that Iowa, as state, got
over the dana ge" habit.
We need to talk more about benefits
ana to think more about the general
growth and Improvement Of our cities
and towns.

the BUSINESS PROSPECT.

The remarkable success encount-
cred last week by New York state
in its sale Of s51.oO0,oo0 AZ per cent
gold bonds is a most important fnan-
cial development and clearly indicates
not only easier money conditions but
return OF confidence on the part of
investors. The fact that there were
more than $50 bids for these bonds and
that the issue was heavily oyers,,b
scribed graphically illustrates the i'm
provement that is now we'll under wav.
Reduction in the minimum discount
rate by the Bank Of England and the
Bank of Germany last week is further
evidence Of the increasing supply of
money at the leading financial centers.
Business has not been. nor is it yet,
all that it should be. Complaint has
been much more general in the east
than IN the west. The tariff and cur
rency laws disturbed big business
much more than they did the smaller
and more Individual business in the
middle west However, the comment
OF bankers and business people on the
new currency law since its passage is
vastly different from the obiecrions
raised to its passage, Generally the
currency law has been accepted in good
spirit by the financial interests most
disturbed by its provisions. The tariff
law Is not given house room as will
ngly. But there is no prospect Of seri
GUS consequences arising from the
new law and 1t will win its way n ac-
ceptance more slowly but quite as
surely as the currency law.

THE BANNER WILL WAVE HIGH.
Marion Register.J

Politicians may talk about third
parties" but the overwhelming ma
jority Of the people are either repuo-
licans or democrats. and they will as
a rule vote the ticket Of enc or the
other of these two great parties. The
third party now most talked about by
the politicians will cut little figure in
the campaigns Of 1914 and 1916. The
men who supported Roosevelt In 1912
claimed they were republicans. but
nine enths Of them were men who
would not stand for the party wreck
ers who controlled the national con-
vention of that memorable and deplorS
able year in national politics.
The revolt passed with the passing
of the 1912 campaign. Ntne-tenths OF
men who refused to condone the
crimes of Barnes. ct al, will vote the
republican ticket hereafter. They are
republicans, Lincoln and Mckinley re-
publcans. Barnes and his iieutena nts
are dead as julius Caesar. They'll
never play the 1912 game again. The
republican conventions will be honor
ably conducted hereafter. Republica rs
will be named for candidates. The
republican platforms will ring clear
and true. The old banner will wave
high in the American sky. After 1916
the democrats Will be down and out for
as many campaigns as there were
from 1895 to 1912 The handwriting
is on the wall. The dial points to a
succession OF republican Victories.

We have emphasized the names Oh
the counties composing the dlstricts
represented by the democratic mem
bers to show to the American and %
our readers generally the character OF
the vote in favor Of this plan to en-
large the capitol grounds. The men
who voted for this measure were from
Davenport from Keokuk, from Councii
Bluffs, from Muscatine, from Dubuque.
Not one Of them was from Des Moines,
nor was one Of them the resident OF a
county associated in any way with POLK
county.
These men in the house were on the
ground: they were familiar with what
was proposed: they had no political In
terest in helping Governor Clarke, and
no personal interest in the building up
of Des Moines. How Is the American
going to set about the impeachment OK
these representative democrats In
democratic state campaign?
The American merely jumps from the
frying pan into the fire when 1t shrinks
from the challenge The Register and
Leader put up TO 1t to institute fair
comparison between what Nebraska
has done for Lincoln to build capital
city and what Iowa has done for Des
Moines and turns its guns on leg1s-
lature in which its own party associates
voted SO unanimously for the project u
proposes to discredit.
The American might much better Do
honest with itself and be fair with It's
readers. For the truth is Nebraska has
spent two dollars in Lincoln for every
dollar iowa has ever spent in Des
Moines which disposes Of the charge
that Des Moines has been seducing the
state. while this capitol extension. in
stead Of being a Des Moines scheme,
was voted by the Americans own party
friends from the remote corners Of the
state and was not promoted nor urged
by Des Moines at all.
