Des Moines, Sept. 1S.-Over four
million dollars a year is being ex-
pended in Iowa annually under direc-
ton of boards or commissions over
which democratic officials preside.
On other boards where millions are
annually expended there are democrats
in position Of authority and RESPONSE
bility.
In the matter OF handling the fin
ances of Iowa, although Iowa is and
has been from time immemorial a re-
publican state. the minority party has
been given authority by law 30 that il
any Is needed an effective check might
be applied to expenditures or invest
ments. Republican Iowa is in fact, in
its administration features, q non-par-
tsan state. No other state so long
wholly in the hands Of one party has
ever given such large part to officials
of the other party.
The state board Of control has as its
chairman or president Colonel McCon-
ilosue, democrat.
The state board of education has as
its president, d. d. Murphy, democrat.
These two boards have the handling
of over $4,000.00O annually. This is
money OF the taxpayers, every dollar
of which appears on the adverse side
of the states ledger; 1t is listed as an
expense of the state of Iowa Not
dollar of 1t but that goes through the
state treasury. Not a dollar of it can
be used without the approval Of the
democratic chairmen of these two most
important Of the states commissions.
Goes For Public Good.
The money goes for education, for
care Of the Ill and unfortunate. for help
for the orphans and the soldiers, for
benefit of the consumptives. for sup
port of the delinquents and the vicious,
for reformation Of the bad. for refuge
for the mentally unbalanced. to educate
the blind and deaf, to help the help

President Murphy and President Nc
Conlogue are among the ablest and
best OF the servants of the people.
They are careful and painstaking. Not
a dollar OF the money under their con-
troll Is wasted. Not a cent Is spent
needlessly. Investments are made
with business care 1t is to the credit
Of Iowa than no demagogue has yet
shown such depravity as to suggest
that in the one thing where the major
part OF the Iowa expense is to be
found there is any graft or incompet-
ency or even misjudgment.
And what is true OF these boards and
commissions II true OF every other.
Many OF them have democratic mem
bers and have had for years. Admin
istratior, OF Iowa affairs is largely nom
partiAan.
