Kossuth county has made gain OF
s,2o2 persons during the past five years.
according to the returns Of the town
ship assessors. OF course there Is
plenty OF room in Kossuth, that being
the largest county in the state. And
yet. il every other county in Iowa had
made proportionate gain the state
would have made a gain of quarter
Of million, which would have been
considered eninently satisfactory.
However. even without such gain, Iowa
IS, and remains, the best state in the
union. She leads in so many lines OF
useful activity that even her untiring
boosters are unable to keep the count
OF them all. And every few days
someone makes a discovery and re-
ports some new item, telling Of some
new activity in which Iowa leads. Aft
er all. we could not have gotten ahead
OF the rest OF the states much farther
even If we had doubled our population
during the last five-year period. And it
is Just possible that with a Very rap
idly growing population Iowa might
not have made the grand record that
the state has made, while her popula-
ton has made practically no gain
worth mentioning

GOLF IN PUBLIC PARKS.
Cedar Rapids Renuhl;can.l

In Chicago the president of the west
park system has had his eyes opened
10 the fact that the people want to
play golf. They are all clamoring for
opportunities 10 play the game, and he
says that park officials who do not
heed the clamorings will have to walk
the plank. Golf, ne says, has become
the national game. Il is the finest of
the outdoor sports and it is adapted
TO men and women also Of all ages.
The boy of can begin learning and
the man at % is not TOO old 10 play
il. I, is no, only fl for all. but it
offers opportunities for the highest ex-
pert proficiency for these who want 70
play j, IN that manner.
The Chicago park man IS right. The
game is the coming one II this coun-
Try. We are told that the Scotch stole
Il from Holland and they made il their
national game and developed il into
what il IS now. But America IS row
going 20 steal il from Scotland and
make il over 10 suit conditions in this
country. The time is coming when
every town VIII have lis golf course.
The game IS differen, from baseball.
IN our national game q ball we hire
men 10 do the playing for US. In golf
every man does his own playing and
he gets the qu.ntessence o .l;e out Of
doors. The development Of the game
IS 70. q bad sign L takes boys ont

CoSSON AND THE COSSON LAWS.
Council Bluffs Nonpareil.l
1t is a very rare instance where one
man can be wholly credited with the
creation Of statutes OF this character.
Mr. Cosson is perfectly candid in this
matter. He is only claiming the credit
to which he is fairly entitled in con-
necuon with these laws. Byers and
Cummins had something to do with
the creation Of the situation which
made the need Of statutes OF this char
acter apparent Saunders. Hammill.
Proudfoot and others are entitled to
credit for the part they played in
whipping the original Cosson draft Of
these laws into their present shape.
The laws as they now exist are an inn
provement over the original drafts. Mr..
Cosson frankly admits these facts. But
it still remains true that Mr.. Cosson
is the man who fathered these meas
tires and succeeded in getting them
placed on the statutes. He is as much
entitled to credit for the passage Of
these measures as any one man can
be responsible for the passage OF laws
which must have the votes of major
ity Of both the house and the senate.
1t is worth while noting in this con-
nection that Cosson's candidacy IS not
based upon this one premise alone.
Just as the work Of Byers as attorney
general developed the need OF enforce
,nent and remova! laws, SO the work of
Cosson in this office has developed the
need of other laws along the same line.
Cosson has been responsible for writ
ing into the statutes of the state more
legislation which does not bear his
name than he has placed there other
wise. His claim to further political
preferment Is based on the premise
that he is student Of state problems
and an indefatigable worker, not only
for the enforcement Of statutes as they
exist. but he strives with energy, judg-
nent and success to secure amend
nlents to existing laws where 1t Is dem
onstrated that present statutes do not
meet existing needs. A notable and
worthy effort on the part of Mr.. Cos
son on this line is the present redlight

complete modernization of our system

a prominent man in discussing the
various candidates for the guberna-
torial nomination said recently in reply
TO the observation that Cosson was
not brilliant that he is fellow who
gets things done" That remark Is an
accurate statement of the case. Cos
son is an earnest. faithful, honest, hard
