A SAVAGE PROPOSITION.

Those who are busily engaged in cir
culating the old story revived for the
Savage campaign such as 1t is. to the
effect that Senator Cummins is heavily
in debt and can not pay what he owes,
are Internationally paying that states
man very great compliment. The
story isn't true and never was true.
But it calls attention to the fact that
A. B. Cummins might have been very
rich had he taken the way to riches
which other men Of capacity have often
taken and capitalized his popularity
and sold his service and his influence
for money. Cummins is not rich
man and may be classified as COM
pared to the wealthy senators as very
poor man. But all the state Of Iowa
knows that had Cummins been pur-
chasable politically he might have been
able to count million. Fighting him
and his progressive policies cost spe-
cial interests fully that much. Cum
minis might have grown very rich at
the practice OF law and by investment
as other honest men have done. And
the state and the country has proflted
by his service instead Of the interests
that pay high for service which tie
public often repays with ingratitude.
1t is utterly superfluous to speak Of
Cummins integrity in Iowa. None but
slanderers ever suggest against the
mans character and nobody believes
a word Of that. 1t is peculiarly com
plimentary that the strongest assault
TO be made upon Iowa's senior senator
is that he has not grown rich. 1t will
appeal only 10 those who consider op.
portunity and conviction worthless un-
less sold to the highest bidder.

age. deep conviction. capacity, sin.

THE TRADE SCHOOL SUGGESTION.

The suggestion of trade schools in
the reformatory at Anamosa is one to
be given thoughtful attention. Perhaps
there is no greater material influence
for reform than the possession Of a
good trade and the knowledge that goes
with it that an honest living Is to be
had by honest and well paid labor. The
difference between the man with a
skilled trade and the man without 1t Is
the difference between the merchant
and the peddler.

ganized labor. And it is IF small use
to find fault with organized labor for
its stand in this matter for it is part
OF its system of protection Of itself
and its membership and only selfish as
the instinct of self preservation is
selfish.
Nevertheless it is true that every
boy born should have chance to learn
a trade or to acquire knowledge and
special training that shall enable him
to earn a decent living and provide for
old age.
What is to be done about It? Is the
trade school and vocational training
Indicated as necessary outside as in

is that he does not propose to leave

his duty is at the front and not at home

decision the senator Is to be COM

The friends Of Governor Clarke are
not asking that any precedents be OBJ

They are supporting Clarke on the
ground that he Is the best man in the

His record during the term he has so
far served proves this. Clarke is
four square man. He conscientiously
does what he thinks is right and then
stands by the record. no matter how
fiercely the storms Of disapproval beat
