INCONSISTENCIES =.

W
Mr.. Bernard Murphy. the veteran re-
publican leader, and editor Of that stall
wart. upright, and all right, model
country newspaper, the vinton Eagle,
is discouraged In trying t. harmonize
inconsistencies. Serves him right: nc
had no business trying-if he did try.
Probably he is discouraged about
other peoples efforts in that line. The
latest phase Of Mr.. Murphy's state OF
mind is revealed in an article on auto

featured for, without kick, who

Similar inconsistencies are TO be
noted in men who are protesting
against the tax for the extension of
the capitol grounds, amounting to 81

auto-car expen.e, or Indulgence in
cigar and liquor ad iibtum, and other
unnecessary OUTLAWS of money. It IL
indeed. hard to account for the incon-
sisteEcies OF human life and we are not
surprised Mr.. Murphy has given it up
as hopeless job, meanwhile relieving
the pressure upon the feelings by an
outburst of honest indignation.

But we find we can't enter such
church. Perhaps we do not grasp at
once the significance Of this fact. 1t 10
only after a little that the reason be-
comes plain. We look around u.s. and
we preceive at length that every insti-
tuition in our modern government,
every discovery in our modern science
from the telegraph which encircles the
globe to the cure and prevention OF
disease, has been accomplished against
the principle for which that church
still stands. the principle of having our
thinking done for US.
1T Is Of no avail 10 say that tie

Christianity Breaks Down Caste.

Not only Is Christianity winning con-
verts in India, but 1t is also breaking
down caste barriers in Hindu society.
The low-caste man who rs Hindu
finds that his brother who becomes a
Christian ceases to be an object of
discrimination, says Lala Lajpat Raj.
the Indian politician, in The Indian Re-
view (Allahabad). And this writer.
himself Hindu and a Brahmin. ad-
vises his coreligionists to stop the drift
to Christ and Mohammed by remov-
ing some of the caste distinctions. AS
he explains the situation:
AT Ludihana the municipality pro-
hibited low-caste Hindu from drink
ing water from the municipal taps.
1t was voted with one voice that so
long as he remained Hindu he could
not get water from the pipes. tho. IL
he were to be converted to Christianity.
there would be no objection. To be a
Hindu alone was the mark of disgrace
for this poor being. The question is
whether we Hindus are ready to put
aside our pride OF caste and embrace
in brotherly fold these poor brethren
in whose veins courses the same blood
as in our own, and thus build strength
for ourselves; or are we going to let
others take these into their own fold
Both Mohammedans and Christians are
prepared to uplift them by receiving
them into their own faith. During the
last ten years more than 10000 OF
these deprest Hindus in the Punjao
alone have changed their faith"

TWO IMPORTANT CASES.

The district court OF Johnson county
will have two important questions to
determine at the February term. The
first is whether or not guinea pigs are
domestic animals. This will be COM
paratively easy, but the other is more
delicate and has many inner points Of
observation, hence more chances OF
missing it in the various lines OF
reasoning 1t involves the question
whether it was too much of something
not strictly within the lines Of grape
juice or a wobbly chair which caused
some unusual actions on the part OF
Justice Herring. II it was merely a
wabbly chair, the court can recon- :
mend a substantial store box. nail
key, or a repaired chair, but II the
movements were due to lack OF
equilibrium above the chair. then the
court can retire the justice and leave
it to the board Of supervisors to say
who shall be his successor.
Iowa City is deeply interested in the
latter case. 1t would be better II the
justice had something besides the
claim of wobbly chair az q defense.
for 1t is undignined to zee Justice

be unbecoming to be open to . success-

TWO GREAT WASTES.

Within the city limits of Marshall
town is tract of possibly twenty acres
that is as fertile as any similar num-
Der Of acres in the state. And yet for
many years this land has had no rest
from intensive cultivation as a truck
farm. 1t is in the best shape it has
ever been at the end Of period Of
years during which every effort has
been to get the most out Of the SOIL
Why? First because 1t has been in
ership and been worked by those who
own it. Second. which Is only part of
the first, 1t has absorbed thousands of
loads OF fertilizer gathered from livery
barns and about town where it was by
way of nuisance. Great stacks Of
straw manure stand on this acreage
rotting down to be spread as soon as
it becomes available.
The farmer close to town may take
a lesson from the patch of truck farm.
The man who is asking $500 to s4oo an
acre for his farm is bluffing unless he
can get the returns or is specializing
and he can't get returns on farm
which is not up 10 the highest prac-
,icab!e stage of fertility. Land like
that must raise big crop every sea-
son. 1t can't fail even once without
serious loss. 1t is rated high and must
make good Why 90 farmers neglect
the supply of fertilizer to be had
mainly as free gift at a thousand
stables in the town?
Why does a landowner who holds his
acreage at $500 make short leases and
permit the tenant to skin the soil?
Isn't il true tina, three years of skin
ming will take from the land that
which will require s25 to $50 an acre
to replace?
There is only one way to make
$500 an acre farm. Ii must produce
proportionately. Prices are approx
mately as high as they will be able TO
90 for many years. Production is the
only solution of higher priced land.
There are two great wastes going on
fertilizer thrown into guilies ana
streams 70 get it out of the way and
soil robbery.

TERMS:
Why NOT Mr.. PORTER?

IT begins to look as tho Claude Porter
might get it. Claude desires greatly
the position Of federal attorney for the
southern Iowa district. Now it is said
that compromise arrangement mas
been made and that Mr.. Porter's way
is brixht between him and the job now
held by friend Temple of Osceola.
They might go farther and fare
worse than to bestow this office on the
Centerville attorney. So far as the
claim partisanship is entitled to urge
is concerned Mr.. Porter is we'll sup
ported. He has been serviceabie
democrat. He has been somewhat OIL
a petrol upon the stormy seas or oen9-
ocratic endeavor in Iowa but he mas
ridden the waves somehow and kept MS
head above water. He has been not
so much a warhorse Of democracy as
a platter" a consistent performer, en- :
tered in all the events and finishing
many times "just outside the money.
II he lands this proposed office ii will
be no more than his deserts from the
democracy. Perhaps it will not more
than pay his entrance fees in the many
stakes for which he has been entered.
At that it is neither first nor
..place" but ito show He has raced
until perhaps he has acquired some
strain Of tendon, some puffiness OF the
legs and minor evidences Of hard track
work, no ringbones. nothing SO bad as
that, but little things that prophecy an
end to racing. But he has kept the col
ors of his party on the course. been a
contender and run with a god heart
attic, among the also rams. From
party standpoint he deserves green
pasturage beside running water with
some grain and stab!ing of nights.
Still keeping the point OF view of the
Iowa democracy 1t is hard to see how
it could do better. If the attorney is
to be selected from among democrats
why not Porter? He has repute as
lawyer and as clean man. To be sure
he has been accused in an earlier day
of holding tendencies toward prohibit
ton and thus-in that earlier day
away from democracy but that that
does not hurt him in genera! Iowa esti-
nation or with the Wilsonian and Bry
anesuue powers that be in Washing
ton. where federal attorneys are made.
Why not Mr.. Porter?

RELIGION IN POLITICS.
Manson Democrat.


This newspaper regrets that some OF
the Iowa newspapers. both democratic
and republican, have m:sinterpreted
the Democrats statement that Cath
ole would not be appointed to the po-
s!tion Of United States marshal for
northern Iowa. to mean that this news
paper inferred that this administration
had drawn or intended to draw the line
on mans religion. The Democrat did
not wish to infer that meaning in any
way whatsoever. 1t published merely
the statement of a congre ssman who
is supposed to be on the inside in the
matter. and what it really wished TO
infer and say was that the appoint
ment would not go to Catholic be-
cause OF the fact that three prominent
Catholics-Jerry Sullivan, Louis MUIR
ply and Judge Van Wagenen-had al
ready been taken care of with COM
forta Bile fedsral berths. hence the fac.
that Mr.. Hosan's recommendation by
the referees had been turned down al
Washington made it appear that Con-
gresham Connolly was correct in his
statement that Catholic could not get
the northern marsha ship. The DEM
ocrat editor does not believe that this
administration has any prejudice
whatsoever against any mans religion,
and surely it has none against the
Catholic religion if the large number of
Catholic ii has provided with fat Of

PROGRESSIVE SINCERITY.


There has been great noise the
past week made by the third party
Progressives in state conference al
Des Moines. About two hundred
Leaders" from all parts of the state
gathered at the capital city and spent
two DAYS in speech making and plan
forming. 1t was solemnly resolved
that the party must have a candidate
for every office in the state to be filled
at the general election in November.
Much talk was made about the prin-
ciples at stake and Progressives were
urged to rally to the cause as martyrs.
Most OF the speakers devoted a con-
siderable part Of their harangues to
denunciation Of Senator a. 3. Cum
minis, who was denominated coward,
near progressive, a reacdonary. e.c.,
by men who were either asleep or on
the other side OF the fence when Mr..
cummins was making the fight that
made Iowa the leading progressive
, state in the union. The Journal is In
sympathy with much that the third
party Progressives are demanding In
| their platform, but It desires to point
out the fact that the republican party
Of Iowa stood for these things before
the birth of the third party, that A.
B. Cummins and George w. Clark were
standard bearers in the great contest
of the past ten years wherein most OF
these reforms were placed upon the
statute books OF Iowa and that they
stood firm and true for these things
during all their political lives. The
! fight for progress and reform has been
fought and won in Iowa by the republic
can party And the men who won the
fight are asking the people OF Iowa to
approve their work. What man can the
third party nominate for Senator who
