the RAINBOW RUNNERS

The story Of the pot Of gold at the
foot Of the rainbow is retold in the
article by D. W. Norris on this page
descriptive of farming in southern
California. It is excellent precaution-
airy reading for those who see a pot
of gold at the foot OF an evanescent
rainbow and neglect the safe and solid
opportunities of Iowa.
Men make good In southern Cali
fornia, in semi arid regions everywhere
where they can obtain water for ir-
rigation. But farming by irrigation is
a different proposition from farming in
Iowa Mr.. Norris, who is one Of the
best fitted men in the country to OBJ
serve and analyze a business propo-
sitfon, seems to have analysed it fairly
and thoroughly in the article con-
tributed.

Quite true! Iowans largely are re-

can not some Of it be utilized to create

It isn't matter Of utter lack OF OPP
portunity there but question OF COM
parison between the fruitful realities
Of Iowa and the possibilities elsewhere.
The seeker who goes running breath
lessly toward the foot Of the rainbow

pot of gold lies just beneath the sur
face of every foot Of Iowa soil.

Of the irrigated valleys. There ID little

sEeREeAre the LEPERs.

In the old days leper was an out
cast. He was driven out of the COM
munity to the wilderness, refused hu-
man companionship and except for the
charity of strangers and the care of
relatives was left to starve alone.
There was a reason. The leper was
dangerous. His touch infected with
incurable and horrible disease. So the
ancients followed the sense and feel
ing of their time and segregated him
unfeelingly because his touch was
death to the whole and healthy.
Nowadays We do better. We segregate
them but we do not starve them.
The leper OF the ancients was not
more dangerous than the moral leper
of the moderns. Now and then moral
obliquity degenerares into a leprosy.
The mind and morals OF the man thus
afflicted break down. Home ties, re-
gard of neighbors, community respect,
decency all break down under the in
sidious progress of the disease. For
such degeneracy is disease, fatal, in
fectious disease, a contagion which
ruins all it touches.
Segregate the moral leper. Put him
where ne belongs where his contagion
can not spread among youth and cor
rupt healthful morals. There are many
with a low power of resistance against
moral leprosy. So long as the leper
runs at large his victims will be many.
Put him away behind the solid doors
provided for him and his like. Keep
him there for recovery or death He
is altogether too dangerous at large.

PAYING FOR ROADS

Give those who want them chance
to build good roads" pleads the Mar
shalltown Times-Republican. That's
good doctrine. But don't ask US in
Cedar Rapids to pay taxes to build
roads in Marshall county. If we want
good roads we must make up our
minds 10 build them ourselves.-Cedar
Rapids Republican.
The road district plan modelled after
the drainage system would bring Mar
shalltown and Cedar Rapids, separated
by at least seventy five miles, into diff
ferent districts. A division line would
put each town about thirty-five miles
from the half way mark.
A good town draws trade thirty Ave
miles over good highway. Marshall
town gets plenty Of auto trade which
comes that far over the dirt roads
when they are good. The same Is prob
ably true OF Cedar Rapids. Both
towns would get more trade and a
steadier one over solid highway. good
every day in the year. Both Marshall
town and Cedar Rapids can afford to
carry their share of the cost of a good
road district in the territory whence
they draw trade. In fact both towns
can afford TO help pay for good roads
precisely for the same reasons that
they can afford to assist interurban
lines. It isn't a question Of Cedar
Pa pids paying for roads for Marshall
town, but Of Cedar Rapids paying its
share for good roads for itself. Cedar
Rapids didn't pay Marshalltown's share
Of assistance given the early railway
line which connected the two cities.
But the line is continuous between the
cities. Permanent road improvement
has taken the place Of interurbans and
railways. A hard road means to the
progress Of this decade what the rail-
way and the interurban meant before
the gasolene engine was perfected. 1t
is question Of community effort first
then of district and state improvement.
II comes back to the Times-Republican
tatement that those who are willing
and ready to form road Improvement
districts should be given permission
and encouragement to do so. And go
ing a bit farther it would be progress
sive good sense to encourage any COM
nunity or district which should pioneer
in this matter by a percentage Of cost
paid by the state-which might get a
bit of the taxes Of a standstill section
until that section walked up and began
TO move.

ENFORCING Law.
rDes Moines Tribune. ]

The Winterset News would nave
done better If it had confined itself to
the suggestion of The Evening Tribune
concerning the United States marshal
as a law enforcer. 1t would not then
have made such a statement at this:
There can be no other law enforce
ment except by the local community.
The history Of all law enforcement Is
that unless a local community enforces
the state laws, all other efforts are nu-
gatory.'
one of the very first issues that con-
fronted Washington after he became
president was whether the United
States could enforce the whisky laws IN
Pennsylvania or whether law enforce
ment must be left to the local COM
munity.
AS Editor Goshorn well knows
Washington took the ground that the
local community had nothing to say
about the enforcement of laws, and
he suppressed the whisky rebellion
with decision.
From that day to this the authority
Of a United States marshal has never
been questioned in a northern state,
and only for short time in any south
ern state.
But, says the News:
THE Evening Tribune forgets that
the state provides every county with
officers who are chosen by each coun-
ty to enforce state laws. What laws
do sherif1s and constables enforce II
they are not state laws?"
But suppose the state finds that
the sheriff and the constable are in
efficient or inattentive? We have
already enacted, THAT the attorney gen.
eral may take steps to have them re-
moved. Why may we not enact that
they shall be superseded altogether?
The Evening Tribune for itself ex-
poets to see the day when the time
honored office Of sheriff and constable
will be relegated, and we shall have q
state police system much like a city
police system, without county lines OF
town lines to stand in the way Of the
enforcement Of law.
But that may be long way of and

ROADS IN BAD CONDITION.
Mason City Times.l

From all parts of the central ana
southern portions Of the state come the
reports Of bad roads which prevent
farmers from marketing their crops at
time when the markets are worth
reaching. The legislature has been so
busy probing things that do not
amount to a hill of beans that they
have not yet provided for a change in
the improvement Of the highways OF
the state. Iowa should have hard
surface roads and this legislature will
NOT be fulfilling its duty to the state II
il does not provide for such improve
ments.
a Council Bluffs correspondent re-
ports that the annual spring move
which many farmers planned for this
year are being delayed to an uncertain
period by the impossible condition OF
the roads and many farmers fear that
spring work is going to be greatly
hindered, as it certainly will be de-
layed.
James Moore of Adams county. pur-
chased a farm eight miles from his
present location. He was compelled
to give possession of his place this
week and TO do so was required to load
his farm property in railroad cars and
ship five miles to Nodaway and there
store his goods until the roads get so
that he can haul them three miles to
his new farm.
From ALI sections come the same
complaint of bottomless roads. Near
Hancock the farmers doubled up and
helped each other move and after one
or two had gotten settled it was agreed
that the strain on their horses and the
damage to their property in the neces-
sarily rough handling would pay Tor
narrow pavement and all are ready to
sanction any reasonable plan Tor
country paving.
Farmers in northern Iowa are not
suffering such hardships. The roads
so far have been very good for this
time OF the year. Farmers are antici-
pating a serious condition later on and
are rushing in their farm supplies in
tile. brick. lumber and fertilizers,
while the roads remain passable. Tne
moving has progressed with very little
interruption. However the season Is
not over and the same Inconvenience
will be experienced in northern Iowa
that are now setting back the central
and southern parts of the state, ex-
cept that in the northern section the
early spring hauling will have been
done before the season of bad roads
opens. Northern Iowa has had bounti-
full supply of snow and when this goes
this part of the state will suffer its
hardships in poor roads.
There should be no delay in provid-
ing for roads with hard surface.
