It happens that Henry Ford is none Of
these things. He is just plain bust
ness man. However. puffed by too
much publicity. Mr.. Ford evidently has
determined to give the world the bene-
fit of his advice along all important
lines of national and international ac-
tivity. Not only that but he has
evinced willingness to use some Of his
spare millions to- carry out his half
baked ideas.
A millionaire whose mental equip
ment is made up largely of good In
tentions can do lot of damage spend

toward the confusion OF the public
by manifesting rattle Drained tend
ency in another.

Henry Ford's reputation as one OF the

CALLS FOR SPECIFICATIONS.
Sioux CITY TrlDune.J
There is no expectation that any ona
aspiring to the Iowa governorship Will
openly advocate lax enforcement OF
any state law, or will decline to de-
clare for. a general policy OF law en-
forcement. For that reason. j: Is idle
to deal with this question in mere gen
eralities, as some of the state papers
have been inclined to do. In talking
1aA a,lfn N connection
with the Iowa governorship the real
proposition at issue Is the prohibitory
law. Therefore. why not get right
down to brass tacks? Effective results
In enforcement of the prohibitory law
can not be secured thru any admins
trative officers who are willing to de-
clare for a general policy OF law en-
forcement. This particular law pro-
vides special problem and calls for
an unequivccai and specific declara-
ton upon *, enforcement, IT Is plain
enough, as a matter OF common expert
ence, that any candidate opposed to
the principle of prohibition will not
give the Law the earnest backing that
it needs in order to carry out the pur-
pose Of the enactment. That cand1-
date expresses willingness to enforce
all of the lawe is not sufficient guar
antee that he would clothe the state
prohibitory laws with vitality ana
virility. He should be committed to
the principles involved and the ends
sought. Thus far, on the republican
side, there are four active candidates
for the Iowa gubernatorial nomination.
Attorney General Cosson and Senator
Joe Allen are ardent champions OF the
prohibitory law. w. l.. Harding and
Carl Kuehnlc have not declared for or
against this law, on personal grounds.
but have declared for d general law
| enforcement When the campaign gets
| into the business stages, generalities
| and evasions will not be accepted.
| Each candidates must take stand,
either as an advocate Of prohibitior1
or a. an opponent Of It and OF any
regulation necessary to bring it about.

MEDAL FOR WEATHER NAN.
I0eIwein Register

Was it Mark Twain or some other
humorist who delivered that satire on
New England weather? Well he never
made beginning on the brands OF
weather Iowa and pretty much all over
in the year of grace, 1915. The weather
man has not even tried to be decent,
but has turned out some Of the rotten
est combinations ever suffered by the
human family in the recollection OF
men. The man who can smile and
smile again. day after day is worthy OF
leather medal at least.

PLAYING FOR POSITION.

Democratic and moose leaders are
reported as confessing 10 waiting
policy in order TO put the strongest
canGldase against the republican nom
inee In short they are waiting 70 see
whom the republicans shall nominate
and what republicans shall say in their
platform and DO the best they can in
opposition.
That has always been democratic
poiicy. Tie platforms of that party
have viewed with alarm" and de.
nounced, as a main policy. always:
but that the poose, born 10 evolve new
policies and lead the world, should
play the waiting game and linger to
oppose rather than point onward viii
shock many who heretofore had lean
ings that way.
The republican party thus remains
alone as the constructive party of the
state. II has policies and candidates
who stand on them. And i, is strong
enough in Iowa TO 60 On in its old
fashion OF leadership. Let Others fol-
low It's trail seeking opportunity to
profit by prejudice and faction. So
long as the republicans OF the state
hold 70 plain policies and keep on their
way opposition which awaits action TO
object and deny will not get far in
Iowa
But whom will the democrats nom
mate whoever the republican candi-
date may be? Marsh is out of il. He
was the strongest candidate the demo
Gratis had in sight. Meredith knows
better. Clarkson is being threatened
with bloody murder. Where will the
democracy turn?
There remains only one large hope
for the denocrats-the nomination of
Harding by the republicans. The road
question viii not help the democrats
for the leading democratic papers Of
the state have placed that party on
the side OF good roads Neither will
that question when IL is raised affect
many votes one way or another. Be
fore the vote is east the road oues-
ton Will have been argued out and
understood across the state to the dis
comfiture of those who have hoped
to capitalize prejudice and misrepre-
sentation. The question of strict en-
forcement of the liquor laws viii af-
feet more votes than any other one
issue of the next campaign because
the stat e is anxious to have this vexa-
tious matter done With and laid away
as finished. There is little hope for
the democrats in that also unless the
republicans should perchance nominate
candidate universally considered as
a friend OF the liquor traffic. Then
the opposition party would fall heir to
thousands Of votes cast, not for the
democratic nominee out In Te5uge ct
their own party; and that is also the
only source whence bull moose votes
may come in sufficient number to
make that vote otherwise than scat
tering.
1t is difficult to see what the opposi-
ton parties will gain by waiting. The
more the republican party has been
denounced" by the democrats the
better it has got along.

! that comes from every town, with re-
gard TO the new insurance law that
became operative the Fourth Of July
this year. then 1t would seem as tho
the insurance companies doing bust

Wherein comes the good in eliminating
! business competition in the matter OF
writing fire insurance except, of
course, to the companies doing the
writing. AS the law stands, there is
but one rate that is applicable. and
that rate can be and is fixed by the
companies themselves. They file those
rates with the state department, and
the ioeal agent must writ the insur
ance according to that scheduled rate.
Any Discrimination II the matter of
rates or premium payments subjects
the agent doing the writing to the
laws penalties. A fine law. surely.
And whereas the companies under the
old law. where competition was per-
missable. We're making a scramble for
the business, and making plenty of
money for themselves. under present
conditions the profit they reap must be
enormous. Just to cite an example
OF the law S workings, we give You the
figures on the building in which the
Mirror office is housed. Until July Of
this year, We were able TO get insur-
ance written at a premium of 81 per
thousand. In other words we paid $50
per year for $4,000 policy. Now the
rate, al,ho the same published rate.
but with a Is per cent discount, makes
the same amount OF insurance cost us

the block on Broadway from Burest
Bros HARVARD corner to A. Stratilek
& Sons store Under competitive bus
mess, property owners there were en-
abled to get insurance for $3.50 per
thousand, whereas now the agent must
collect s6l1 per thousand. A fine law,
surely-for the insurance companies
They like 1t The Iowa legislators re-
sponsiole for the enactment Of that
measure ought TO take themselves up
to a stone wall and bump their heads
on it to see IL IL hurts. And then
when they get back to Des Moines at
the next session Of the legislature
hurry and repeal this measure before
some fellow whose insurance rates
have been more than doubled decides
that the best way to stop such fool
legislation is to kill off the men re-
sponsible for il.
