POLICY IS A FAILURE

The feature OF the Presidents annual
address to Congress which has caused
the most comment in Washington was
the absence Of any reference to the Mexi-
can situation. Republicans Immediately
seized upon this weak spot in the ad-
dress and asked why Congress had not
been informed in regard to the cOndi-
tions that had resulted in the evacuation
OF Vera Cruz and the subsequent de-
velopments in Mexico. Even some OF the
Democratic members of Congress were
inclined to criticise the President on this
score.
Representative Mann. Republican lead
er Of the House, had this to say:
The Presidents message was notable
for its failure to make any mention Of
the situation in Mexico. The President
gives no valid reason for government
ownership of ships. There are plenty of
ships to carry out commerce now, but
the President advances no suggestion of
method to encourage commerce with the
great opportunity now before it in the
foreign trade"
Pleased with Defense Idea.
All of the Democrats were pleased with
Presidents comments on the national
defense question. and they believe his
OF the hole into which they have been
slipping under recent pressure from the
movement Instituted by Representative
Gardner
Many OF the Republican members OF
Congress. and some Democrats, were
displeased with the way in which the
President dismissed the rural credits
legislation, to which the administration
has been pledged. II was apparent that
this will cause trouble in Congress ana
there is also certain to be a fight over
the Presidents stand in favor of gov
ernment-Owned merchant marine.
There was a distinct disappointment
among the opponents Of the river and
harbor pork barrel that the President
did not specifically call attention to the
opportunity presented to his party fol-
lowers to begin the economy program
with river and harbOr legislation. Cen
orally, the Presidents utterances on
economy were regarded in the light of an
apology for the Democratic record or
the last session than the marking OF
any determined attempt TO reduce e&-
penditures.
"BeEt Message He Has Penned."
Representative Murdock, OF Kansas. the
Progressive leader said: 1T Is the best
message so far penned by President Will
son. His sentiment in regard TO national
defense is admirable. But. nevertheless
and Notwithstanding. we must get
ready"
Speaker Clark said: 1T is a magnih-
cent state paper. wisely conceived and
felicitously expressed. II will be read
with delight by the majority of the
American people"
Representative Underwood, the Demo-
cratic House leader, said: Il regard the
Presidents message as a great paper. 1t
clearly and forcefully defines the position
of the government in reference to the
important questions that now confront
the country. / feel sure that the Demo
cratic members Of the House are in ac-
cord with the Presidents views and will
sustain the position that he has taken. ="

Rock Rapids. May 2s.-An irate

daughter Of a prominent farmer liv-

during the temporary absence of MIR
Nuns. The clippers then headed for
Luverne Mimi. just across the line
Mr.. Nuns soon missed the girl and
started In pursuit with another auto
mobile. The father encountered the
couple just coming out of Luverne
where they had been united in mar
riage. and called upon them to stop.
The demand to halt was UNDECIDED
and both cars made a record run to
Rock Rapids the clippers holding good
lead and the bride reaching the home
of her husbands parents before her
fathers arrival.
Mr.. Nuns went to the garage and
attempted to assault young Smock
driver of the clippers car, and then
went to the Horn residence and caused
a further disturbance. AS the young
woman is 10 years of age, no legal OBJ
jections can be interposed to the mar
riage.

Governor Clarke said. These wide
differences obtained as to all classes
and kinds Of animals. There was but
one thing for the council in the per-
Torrance OF its duties to do. Here
We're the grossest inequalities. Here
was manifest injustice. If no equali-
cation was made the county assessed
at sos was paying tax that others
ought to pay. The council equalized
the assessments. Now, the first time in
the history Of the state, every county
is paying upon exactly the same val
uation upon animals Of the same kind
and class. This is so manifestly right
that there is no possible room for hon
est criticism of the council.
Very wide differences existed also
as to farm lands where, as a matter of
fact, no real difference Of consequence
existed. The council could not do 9th
erwfse. without violating oath Of office
and the law, than to adjust the valua-
tons returned so as to equalize them.
thus bringing about equality Of sacri-
flee to public burdens. This the coun-
Gil did so far as it was reasonably posi-
BILE to do 1t and against its action no
just or honorable criticism can be
lodged.
"The council would not claim that
it has done perfect work because that
is impossible It would only claim that
it had made the most conscientious eff
fort possible to bring about equality of
taxation In Iowa. This ought to be the
desire Of every honest man and every
such man ought to support the effort"
