A VIOLATED PLEDGE.

Col. Harvey in North American
Review: The democratic platform
demanded "a return to that simple
ity and economy which benefits a
democratic government, and a re-
duction in the number of useless Of
fees, the salaries IF which drain the
substance of the people" This
pledge has not been kept. Whether
President Wilson could have check
ed the rapacity of his followers in
any case is perhaps question, but
it must be recorded to his disad-
vantage that if he has ever tried to
do so the fact has not been evidence
ed, and that the appropriations rec
commended with his acquiescence
far exceed those ever before sub

IN THE EARLY DAYS.

The following extracts from pa
per read before the Pioneer Law
makers Association in Des Moines,
February Is, 1894, by Charles AID
rich, and later appeared in the An
nails of Iowa, cannot fail to be Of
interest to our readers. The paper
was intended to be character
sketch of Captain Thomas Drum
mond, but gives a glimpse into one
of the first Iowa Legislatures:
The first time l ever saw an Iowa
legislature in session was in the
month of February, 1858. l was
then living in Webster City, Hamil-
ton county, where l had started the
Freeman newspaper the previous
summer. That winter was an open
one, there being little snow. A fell
low townsman, Hon. Walter c. Will
son, a member of the preceding leg
islature-the one which met in Iowa
City-drove across the country in a
light open wagon, carrying Mr..
George Smith, another early settler,
and myself. The most of the way
coming down we travelled over the
prairie, four or five miles east Of
the road which followed the sinu-
ousities of the timber belt the great
er part of the way. The usual au-
tumnal fires had swept over the
prairies and the ground was bare
and quite smooth. Mr.. Wilson was
a thorough pioneer and able to pick
his way regardless of the wagon
road. We reached the capitol with
out other incident than narrowly es-
Gaping a ducking through The ice, in
Squaw fork, deep prairie creek in
the south part of Hamilton county.
At that time the only legislative
body l had ever seen in session was
the United States Senate, a week or
two after the Inauguration of Presi-
dent Franklin Pierce. l need not

HIGH FINANCE.

Sharood told of the formation Of
the Iowa and New Jersey holding
companies, the directors of which
were employees of the Rock Island
railroad. The total stocks and bonds
issued for the two holding compan-
les we've s350,OOO,OOO. These, ac-
cording to the witness, had no earn
ing power of their own, but were
dependent entirely for earning upon
the 81, 100000 capital stock of the
Rock Island road.-Report of Rock
Island investigation.
This gives a pretty good idea Of
high finance and also explains why
larger dividends are not paid. How
many roads are doing this sort of
thing can only be surmised. The in
vestigation of the New Haven road
revealed conditions even worse. Per-
haps if the public knew all the facts
it would not be so free to grant the
five per cent increase in freight
rates favored by President Wilson.
Evidently the president has been i'm
posed upon by the railroad manage
ment, same as the public has. Such
revelations create distrust in the
public mind and injure honest rail-
road management.

intricacies and the workings of the
laws and legislation in order that
the records of congress may not be
burdened with a mass of meaning
less detail that is worthless and i'm
possible of enforcement and to in
sure that such laws may be useful
and meet the demands, necessities
and economic conditions Of the peo-
pie for whom they are made.
The great mass of people in the
U. S. live directly or indirectly on
the farms. They are the people for
whom the laws must be made. A
law is worthless unless it is adapt
ed to the greatest good of the larg-
est number. Therefore the farmers
of this country are entitled to a
voice in legal matters and they can
get that voice only by sending to
Congress such men as will represent
their interests. That is just the rea-
son why Judge Quarton is eminently
fitted to represent his district In
congress Ellsworth News.
The News puts up pretty good
argument for it's candidate for con-
gress and at the same time gives
some ample reasons why RUDE Nc
Ferren, the republican nominee for
member of the legislature from this
county, should be elected over Prof.
Hall, the progressive candidate. Mr.,
McFerren was raised upon a farm
Just north of Webster City and for
many years assisted his father in
farming. He now has suburban
farm home just west Of town. He
is a large land owner in Hamilton
county and is as much interested in
the success of the farmer as is any
man in the county. He has also,
like Judge Quarton, had much ex-
perience in law, having been admit
ted to the bar some twenty years
ago and having practiced ever since.

it's, customs and language, speak
ing the latter as his native tongue,
says the word means "This is the
place."
According to the records, when
Black Hawk made his raid west of
the Mississippi, he crossed the river
at or near where Davenport now is,
and subsequently designated the
place as "Kiowa' the place where
the river was crossed. He was not
seeking the "beautiful," or "beau-
tiful land" He was prospecting for
g very different purpose. AS he NOV
ed forward, he drove the inhabit-
ing tribes across a river, and the
river was called "Kiowa," meaning
the river over which the tribes were
driven, and the Indians driven over
were called "Kiowas" The word
was in frequent use by the Indians
when the first settlers came into the
state. Taylor Pierce, who was con-
nected with the trading post at Fort
Des Moines, and who spoke the Sank
and Fox languages fluently, says
that when the Indians were moving
southwark from their excursions in
the north, if asked where they were
going the answer would be ''Puck-
achee, Kiowa, Kesauk sepo," which
signified they were going up or
along the Kesauk river, that being
the name which the Sank and Fox
Indians gave to what is now called
the Des Moines river. The word,
Kesauk, means dark, ~turbid, from
the fact that in the spring, when
they made their hunting trips
northward, the water was blacken-
ed by the washing from the prair-
les which had been burned over the
previous autumn. 1t is from Kesauk
the town of Keosauqua takes it's
name. The Des Moines river has
always been called Kesauk by the
Indians.
That the word Iowa was prim-
arily "Kiowa," and originated with
some of the many dialects of Algon-
kin origin, there is good reason to
assert. The Sauks were especially
partial to the use of the letter *"
It occurs many times in "Ma-ka-tai-
me-she-kia-kiah," the Indian name
of Black Hawk. So also of other
chiefs, as Mahaska, Keokuk, Powe-
shiek, Winnishiek, Waupekuk, Kish-
kekosh, etc. In a list of over 200
names of chiefs, appearing on the
books of the trading post of Fort
Des Moines, all but 20 contain this
gutteral letter once or more. 1t is
also marked characteristic Of the
languages of the Chippewas and
Pottawattamies.
AS further evidence of the cor
rectness of this Interpretation of
the word, an old chief of the Mus
quake or Tama county Indians, was
very recently asked the meaning Of
the word, Iowa or "Kiowa." His
answer was, "This is the place."
For instance, if party of Indians
were travelling, when camping time
came, and the chief found suitable
spot, he would exclaim, "Kiowa,"
and the party understood that it
was a good place to camp. It is also
used to signify passing over or
across

GOOD QUALIFICATIONS.

The laws of this country should
be made by men who are versed in
not only the making but the en-
forcement of these statutes. 1t would
knew nothing of legal matters to
undertake to make the laws as it
make a suit of clothes. The two
cases are perhaps extreme, but it
remains that the compelling force of
the legislative body should be men
who know something of the work
they have before them. 1t should
be made up of men who know the
