,.. Fell to the Ground.

4 the gentle nightingales sang a sooth-
! ing melody to his rapturous heart.
- "She is mine-mine" whispered
Alan in subdued ecstacy. Coward
heart! Why did you not urge me to
seek the blissful assurance of her love
2 before?"
In rare humility he accepted the
great gift love had given him. Bust
ness life had only recently begun for
&" Alan and it was decidedly desultory.

He had been disappointed as to secur-
ing employment. His, however, was
not a nature to remain waiting or
idle. He picked up the first task that
came to hand. Alan was something
of an artist. For few months he as
sisted a scenic artist in getting up the
scenes for a grand spectacular drama.
This led to his introduction to a
successful manufacturer, who was
making a speciality of his celebrated
RED Rose Soap" The man had got
the idea of advertising the same on all
the cliff sides he could find in Idaho.
The more inaccessible the place, the
more. daring the feat of thus giving
his soap publicly, the more literally
was he willing to pay.
At a salary that would enable Alan
to set aside enough to begin house
keeping on in a nice way, the latter
was given charge of the expedition. A
wagon, a driver, all the tackle and
other paraphernalia necessary to
swing from lofty heights and scale
great pinnacles were put aboard. The
painting was to be crude, but loud.
The red, red rose was 10 by 16 daub
of carmine, the lettering white and
80 feet in length, so the great sign
could be read miles away.
With all this arranged and a sure
ty of good money ahead, Alan went
to Edna and proposed. He had hest
tated before because there was a
rival in the field. There was one
Burt Ridgeway. He had been fgur-
ing about the town as a young man
of wealth, and had shown Edna mark
ed attentions. Edna had entirely dis
abused Alan's mind of the fear that
she ever dreamed of Ridgeway as a
| possible sutton.
So, he was very happy as he left
the Wilton home in the early twi-
light. He passed down hedgerow,
weaving glowing fortunes for the fu-

TWO VASTLY DIFFERENT CANDIDATES.

That Mr.. Savage SIS in for an expert
ence akin to that which LATE Young
went thru when he contested with
Kenyon for senatorial honors," is sug-
gested by the Council Bluffs Nonpareil
The comparison is scarcely fair TO
Ny. Young. For Young was representa-
tive Of a very considerable part OF Iowa
republicans. He was. as he remains,
one OF the best known men OF his state
and one Of acknowledged ability and
accomplishment. More than that he
WIS public man and had been Of
much service IN many way to the pub
lie, His ability was matter Of com
mon acknowledg cement from one end OF
the state to the other. Young was OF
senatorial size, able, strong, and with
plenty of encourag cement from all parts
q the state toward his candidacy. He
had been senator by appointment. He
was really big man. But Young was
ar, rns wrong side. an acknowledgment
he was free to make later.
About all that the state knows Of
Savage is that he is standpatter OF
the ancient school, young man stand
ing pat where his grandfather might
have stood; that acting with and for a
little coterie OF politicians who are eX-
-rene!y sorry for themselves and CORE
spondingly sore over the progressive
| legislation of late years he had failed to
induce any candidate of prominence to
permit himself to be dragged out to OPP
pose the senior senator and finally
brought out-himself; that he has
nothing behind his candidacy but him
! self and a few others and a grudge as
| old as the beginning Of the movement
| in Iowa which has made for a greater
Iowa and the square deal generally
That's about all that is generally known
or understood Of Savage except that ne
| has been In the legislature and held a
head office in q lodge.
| There is a great difference between
such candidates. and that of Lafayette
Young, pubncist, and prominent either
of Iowa for forty years. To be sure the
same political reasons that defeated Mr.
Young hold good as against Savage. bu
the men and their candidates. are
vastly different. Young wanted to b.
senator. A large number of Iowa re.
pubIicans agreed with him. Savagt
forces in his candidacy as is his un
questioned right under the primary law
There is no denial Of his right to be {
candidate. The denial is that he il O.

NE NAVE Rssh PATIENT.

We have been patient with Mexico
patient as no other nation would have
been had 1t been plagued and annoyed
with neighbor like ours. Had the
Mexican boundaries marched with
those Of any other powerful nation on
the face Of the earth Mexico would
have been an integral part Of that nas
ton for the last fifty years. On the
part OF this country there has been a
studied policy avoiding territorial ag-
grandizement and our interest in tina,
unfortunate country to the south OF
us has been protective of its auton-
omy and independence.
We have been patient with Mexico
Peonage is the full sister Of slavery and
when we make the boast that slavery
does not exist on the American con-
tinent conditions in Mexico rise up in
denial. Revelations Of abjecr tyranny
and servitu6e in the sisal fields, of con-
ditions worse than any ever told OF
American slavery, have stirred feel
ing that such conditions should not re-
main unchallenged. Murder and as
sassina1ion and utter disregard of the
rules of civilized warfare have marked
the internal troubles OF Mexico.
We have been patient with Mexico
Other nations have wondered at our
patience. Mexico evidently aisappre-
hends our patience. She attributes il
20 fear as she viii attribute intervea-
ton TO greed.
Borah predicted that if the flag goes
up in Mexico that it Will never come
down. 1t would be better for Mexico
and for the world in genera! if this
should come true. Perhaps it would
be worse for the United States. II is
i'm possible TO see where conditions and
circumstances and shifts OF national
opinion shall carry US. No country
can avoid its destiny.
We stand at the verge OF war. Per
hgps as this is written the American
troops are over the border. Vera Cruz
IS the open gate TO Mexico City. Il i,

and ended soon. The route 10 Mexico

EQUAL RIGHTS TO DODGE.


Mrs. Louisa Wild, a prominent
woman Of Madison county. has been
arrested and placed under heavy bonds
The charge is perjury. She Informed
the assessor that she was liable to
taxation on $4,000. whereas it should
have been $4,000. The women who
stand for equal rights can scarcely OBJ
ice, to this action. But the average
man will look upon that assessor as
sneak and chump. For there are
many men in that county who have
been doing year after year the very
thing that this woman is to be punished
for. And she gave in half. and a-littie
better, whereas many men simply
swear off the whole sum whatever that
may be- She was 60 per cent honest
and only 10 per cent crooked. and she
is arrested and to be made an example
of, whereas there are many in that
county who are 100 per cent crooked,
and who are not molested by the as
sessor and the prosecuting attorney.
II everybody in the county gave in SO
per cent of his taxable property. no
doub, the treasury would be much bet
ter off than II is at the present time.

by another spring. several hundred
miles Of the Ltncoln highway will be
paved. It will cost money. but what Of
that? That little pile Of marble. down
in washington. erected to Lincoln's
memory will cost the government. when
finished, more than $2,o0o,ooo. 1t will
not be unreasonable to expect that.
within ten years, government aid will
be extended in sufficient amount to
pave the Lincoln Highway from. coast
to coast. 1t will cost s50,0oo.o00 to do
the Job. It has cost the government
over s5o.oO0,00o already for river and
harbor improvements around that little
old city Of New York.
And II little old New York City can
grab 35o,o0o.000 Of government funds
to improve that fyspeck on the earth
surface. what ought to be expected by
fourteen great big states thru which
the Lincoln highway passes. ana which
states contain one third the population
of the United States, in place Of only
one-twentieth OF it, as is the case in

CLARKE SURE TO WIN,

s0oveFnor Clarke u certain to 10 r..
nominated and this agitation on the
part OF both Mr.. Rowley and Judge
Lee may weaken his candidacy, but it
will not result in the nomination Of
either one Of them for governor. We
appreciate that in certain localities in
the state theirs has been worked MP
some criticism against Governor
Clarke on account Of his relation to the
capitol extension proposition. but
whore persistent effort has not been
made to stir up trouble we do not
imagine there Is very much feeling to
the question.
The governor may lose votes on ac-
count Of this matter. but notwithstand-
ing he will be stronger before the peo-
pie than any other candidate who can
be nominated by the republicans at the
coming primary. Governor Clarke may
have made a mistake. but II he did Il
was an error of judgment and not Of
the heart. We do not believe that to
save his life the governor would do a
dishonorable thing or betray the peo-
pie of his state. His conduct In pri-
vate life and since he has been gov.
ernor all go to prove that he is an
honest man. We know that if he is
$Shkh0SO III llS OhlC0 OIL SOSeIUOF Iuat
he will manage the affairs Of the state
quitely. but safely, and that he will not
bring disgrace to the high office he
occupies.
We wonder what qualifications Mr..
Rowley possesses to claim the nomina.
ton for governor. The only thing which
has been emphasized is the fact that he
viii stand ready to veto an appropria-
ton for public Improvement. Judge
Lee may have attained some notoriety
in judicial way. since he went upon
the bench and may possess a local
popularity. hut he is not known turnout
the state and all that he can hope for
is to divide the republicans in the state
and to weaken the candidacy Of the
man who succeeds in securing the
nomination.
We are for Clarke's denomination be-
cause he has made good record as
governor. because his record during
his first term warrants his asking q
second term, because he is an able and
conscientious man and II elected to the
office of governor will insure a good
administration.
