Of Judge Lee would be admission and
confession Of mistake and incapacity
within the republican rarty. To
change leaders is to admit guilt and
to plead guilty would make the case
Of the democrats far too simple In the
campaign. There is question whether
a party victory at the polls is worth
party qualification before the people.
Every eligible citizen who may comply
with the legal requirements has right
to run for governor. Nobody will fino
fault with that. But 1t is hardly fair
ness or good politics to attack without
definite aim and to furnish ammunition
to the enemy. Much that is being said
now will return to plague. All that is
being urged now will be seized as a
weapon to be used by democrats. And
about all that new candidacy could
bring would be difficulty and disorgan-
ization and kindling to democratic
hope

ROBSON AND HIS DEFEAT.

Hobson was beaten in Alabama. 1t
seems to have been pretty close af-
fair with fair chance for either candi-
date to win. Hobson's issue was main
ly the single one of prohibition. He
was beaten but his vote was big enough
TO keep the result in doubt until the
returns We're in from the districts.
After all while Hobson W as defeated
weakness. Also it is to be noted that
the party leaders were all for Under
wood
Hohson's voyage in the Merrimac
fought against him. Hobson is a
crusader and crusaders rarely win Of
fee for themselves. He is always for
head and drives at it two handed,
Such men are not usually successful
office seekers. Underwood. cold cal
cularing and safe and sane" stood to
disturb existing conditions less. Beyond
that he is a business man and with
business methods. Hobson does bust
ness as he sinks hulks. It was in
the book of politics that Underwood
should heat Hobson for the senate.
But Hobson has never of later years
been given the credit that Justly be-
longs to him. He is forever loading
his craft with explosives and COM
bustibles and sailing out to sink some
evil. Those who have been permitted
to know Richmond Hobson in approx
mate intimacy understand how fine the
man himself is. Hobson is type that
all men might wish their sons. He is
clean and true as steel blade He
follows his higher sense OF values It
is like him to make prohibition the is
sue and Hobson always brings the is
sue and the fight with him. Personally
his mind is as clean as young girls.
He rs a splendid character and that
is the highest human attainment. Let
US remember that when some evening
he holds us an hour longer than we
desire while he seems to talk intermin-
ably. Richmond Pearson Hobson is an
American type of the kind that com
hines courage. hope and trustworthi-
ness
Hobson had nothing to gain and per
haps much to lose by being elected
senator. That plain English peasant
name Of his will live longer in our his
tory than that of most senators. Let
go at that.

Assuming that Judge Lee is a fine
fellow with unquestioned right to con-
test with Governor Clarke, what is il
that Clarke has done which Judge Lee
would not have done had he been gov
ernor in Ciarkes place?
II Governor Clarke deserves to be
sacrificed because he signed the capt.
tol extension bill what should we do
then to a majority of both the demo-
cratic and republican members of the
legislature who put the bill up to him
to sign? Then are we TO understand
that Judge Lee would never have
signed such bill had he been gov
ernor in Clarke's place or is the in
tention merely to capitalize present
misunde rstandings for the benefit of
ones nearer friends? If so that seems
to be beating the democrats at their
own game.

reasonable common sense in the Sc

The Servant.

The Servant,
He who will serve is servant,
Yea a servant OF high degree,
For he stands by highest or lowlieet
With eyes clear-visioned to see.
He who will serve is a brother,
In the brotherhood, warm and brave,
That is broad as the race and as tender
AS the brother who came to save.
He who will serve is lover;
All service were else in vain.
From q heart that makes all the world
sweeter,
He labors more lovers to gain.
He who will serve is a teacher;
For many shall learn at his feet
The art Of all arts the noblest,
OF turning life's bitter to sweet
The truth of all truths the deepest,
Whose knowing must make men
The skill of all skills the finest,
OF training to do and TO be.
He who viii serve shall be master,
Ruling and serving in one.
Till multitudes league with the leader
And the undone work can be done.

As TO CHANGING LEADERS.

The position taken by the Webster
City Freemen- Tribune Is, like the ways
of All Sin, peculiar" That good
newspaper is opposing MI. Clarke
tooth and nail while denying that it
has a candidate for the office of COVER
nor. Its detection is based not on any
impropriety OF the tax raise or CAPT.
toll extension but on the grounds that
certain elements and individuals are
disgruntied over the action Of the last
legislature and are likely ID turn upon
the governor as the most convenient
object of their wrath. No serious
charges are brought against Clarke or
his conduct of the office. The Free
man-Tribune would probably admit
that he has been a competent official.
Ciphered down and accepting at face
value the statement that the FIT. has
no candidate to offer, its attitude is
the less understandable by those who
have thought themselves best &C
quainted with that progressive just
and fearless newspaper.
It Is not enough to assume that
Clarke will have a hard fight next fall
and to dismiss him with that assump-
ton in mind. Clarke will be elected as
against Hamilton or any other demo-
crat II scarcely squares with ord!-
nary fairness in politics or anything
else TO seek to pile all the alleged sins
of the legislature upon the shoulders
! of Clarke and attempt to drive him to
! the wilderness as a scapegoat. Be
cause of its unjustness it has all the
appearance of an attempt to take ad-
vantage Of republican controversy for
the benefit of personal friends or local
ity. preferences.
! If there is trial it is the republican
administration of Iowa that is to be

BOOZE fight
RAGING IN s
STATEST ODAY

In six states today the fate of
liquor and the saloon is being set
tied at the ballot box after one of
the most violent and acrimonious
OF campaigns ever waged. 1t is
the bitterest fight of its life which
the prohibition force has just
made. Never before have so
many states voted on the liquor
question at one election.
Should those six states-Ohio,
Colorado, Washington, Oregon,
California and Arizona-vote for
statewide prohibition, exactly
ONE-THIRD OF THE STATES
OF THE UNION WILL BE DRY
by statewide prohibition.
Ten Dry Ones.
The ten states which already
have voted against the liquor trif-
fic are Maine, Georgia, Virginia,
West Virginia, Tennessee, North
Carolina, North Dakota, Missis-
sippi, Kansas and Oklahoma.
Moreover, under local option,
there are 1.765 counties which
have chosen definitely to be dry
and only 1,156 wet or partially
wet counties.
In other words, until today the
arid area of America, summing up
that under statewide prohibition
and that under local option, has
been 2,15S,746 square miles, or
actually more than two thirds the
total area of the nation!
And after today? Well, from
the above figures, the tremendous
Significance which observers will
attach to the returns as they be-
gin to come in from the liquor

fled. The 'wets" feel that they
are making their last-stand fight

victory for the democratic state
candidate, for the two democratic
candidates for congressmen-at-

sional districts was the only ex-
pected result in today's election.
The certainty of an overwhelming
democratic majority, which al
ways brings out light vote in

set today by balloting on three
proposed amendments to the state
constitution, including one pro.
viding for the initiative and ref
