men refuse to have much TO do with
politics. 1t is not our people who
make ideal municipal, county and
state government impossible. Our peo-
pie Will average up very much like all
other people. 1t is the system that has
been in vogue almost from the begin
ming. the idea that public Office is
something different from private BUSH
ness and must be managed in another
way-there is where the difference lies.

to teach the others of US how much
we owe to the worlds real workers: to
secure for them just place in public

IOWA OPINION AND NOTES.

; in his recent spat with the commit
tee of colored men, over segregation
of federal employees, the president said
that the matter had no political basis.

basis for half of the government jobs

Courier If half of the people. both

SALOONS TOO FEW?

lWdSninStOn SOuuty 6Iebb-J
The Burlington Saturday Evening
Post made vicious campaign against
the reelection OF George Cosson as
attorney general Of Iowa. Its argument
was that the number Of saloons had
been go reduced in Burlington that
those, who desired to refresh their
thirst could not be accommodated
with neatness and dispatch. 1t asserted
the sidewalks were filled with men
waiting their turn at the spigot. Here
is what the Post really said in part:
The Cosson laws have operated to
make conditions 40 70 the liquor traffic
in Iowa cities worse than they have
ever been in the history Of the state.

MIS- Wilson nd Of MeAd0o.

Eleanor Randolph Wilson, youngest
daughter OF the president, was mar
ried on Thursday evening to Secretary
of the Treasury William Gibbs Nc.
Adoo. The wedding makes the four.
teenth held in the White House.
The wedding ceremony. which was
performed by Rev. Sylyanus W. Beach.
pastor of the First Presbyterian
church of Princeton, n. J., who also
married Mrs. Sayres, was simple In
the extreme.
The company was the smallest ever
assembled to witness a White House
wedding. Only the members of the i'm
mediate family of the president, a few
of Miss Eleanor's intimate friends
three Of Secretary McAdoO's six chill
dren by his first wife. the members OF
the cabinet with their families, and
military and naval officers, members
of the presidents personal staff, who
served as ushers, were present.
For the ceremony Rev. Beach used
the interrogations and responses both
as to the betrothal and the words oil
union from the book of Common Pray
er OF the Protestant Episcopal church.
The word "obey" was included in the
service.
I Notwithstanding the earnest EFFORTS
of the presidents family to restrict
the size Of the wedding company and
to make the second White House we'd
ding exclusively private, the wedding
gifts received by Secretary McAdoc
and his bride we're many and costly
Among the gifts, gems and jewelry for
personal adornment predominant. The
most imposing of all are the bride
groom's gifts, a superb string Of pearls
and a brooch for the wedding gift
Other especially notable presents were
a heavy gold bracelet, studded with
precious stones, from the United
States senate, and a massive silver tea
service Of seven pieces from the house
Of representatives.
A deluge Of what might be termed
"freak" gifts was also received. These
sent in good faith by scores Of admir-.
ers, male and female, the country
over, took the form Of barrels Of ap'
pies, turnips, popcorn, washing ma
chimes, sewing machines, cooking uten'
sils and canned goods.

Official representatives Of Provision

through martial lines OF Americans on
Mexican soil at Vera Cruz, enrOute on
a mission of peace to Canada, neu-
trail nation, that the lingering dispute
which threatens war between the Uni
ted States and Mexico may be corr
posed.
While the Mexican jurists were TAX
ing leave Of their revolution-torn coun-
try, welcomed and given God speed by
an American general waiting with
armed forces of the United States at
Huerta's gateway. the United States
government officially announced its
representatives in mediation negotia-
lions before the South American tri-
umyirate at Niagara Falls, Ontoria,
next Monday.
Justice Lamar, of the United States
supreme court, and Frederick W. Leh-
mann, former solicitor general, were
chosen by President Wilson. From
Huerta are Fastening forward Angus
tine Rodriguez, Emilio Rabasa and
Luis Elguero.
General Carranza and the Mexican
rebels who seek Huerta's overthrow
will not be represented. They will
continue to make war in Huerta's ter
ritory while the truce between the IN
ternational disputants proceeds.
Disturbing elements continued to
arouse interest throughout the day.
General Funston, at Vera Cruz, was
appealed to by the Brazilian minister
at Mexico City to release some South
Americans, including three Brazilians'
who had been arrested and are await
ing trial for "sniping" American sol
diers from the refuge OF a tramp
steamer in Vera Cruz harbOr.
An appeal was made to Secretary
Bryan by the mediating ENJOYS on be-
half of General Huerta because Of the
report that American forces had seiz-
ed a Mexican lighthouse on LObos Isl
and, off Tampico. an act which Huer-
ta's agents maintained was aggressive
and in violation of the armistice. This
government maintained that Huerta
had violated the armistice in ordering
lighthouses closed on the Pacific
coast, to the peril Of shipping.
