What may we take unto the vast for

That marble door
Admits no fruit OF all our long en-
deavor.
No awnwreathed crown We wor-
No sarnered lore.
What can we bear beyond the un-

No gold, no gains
OF all cur toiling in the life immortal
No boarded wealth remains,
Nor guilt, nor stains.
Naked from out the fair abyss behind
We entered here;
No word came with our coming to re-

What wondrous world was near,
No hope, no fear.
Into the silent. starless night before
Naked we glide.
No hand has mapped the constella-
lions DER US,
No comrade at our side,
No chart no guide.
Yet fearless toward that midnight

Oar footsteps fare;
The reckoning OF a Fathers hand we
follow
His love alone is there;
No curse, no care.

But there are game birds that thrive
in closely settled districts. OF course
they are not native to Iowa Had they
been, how could they have existed in
the pioneer days. These game birds
are coming to Iowa just as the auto
mobile, the telephone and the rural
delivery. Imagine these conveniences
in early Iowa They were impossible.

been impossible on the wild plains OF

the grain Of Iowa, they shelter in the
grass and trees by the roadside. In
stead of flying straight away like the
young prairie hen, they scutte away
in the grass and even the pot hunter is
bafflei. The young ringneck pheasant
is not good game bird except before
education by the hunter Before being
hunted they rise from the ground much
as does the quail but each bird takes
a SEPARATE course. One or two may
be killed at the first rise If the hunter
finds the same covey few days later,
they will take wing before a close ap-
proach. and he is likely to get one. The
third time they will SCOT away thru the
grass when the hunter enters the field.
No bird dog can trail them fast enough
to stop them. They will run out. or
gun range and then take to wing and
fly to distant parts. Such birds are
the ideal game birds of the state. They
exist in other countries similar to Iowa.
They thrive in other states than Iowa
They will be permanent game birds
here
1t is rank injustice to insist that the
gun license Of Iowa should go to the
fish propagation. To stop the propo-
CATION of game and turn the gun IL
cense over to fish propagation would
simply be killing the goose that lays
the golden egg. With no game to shoot
there would be no gun licenses col
lected.
Put license on fishing rods, or the
right to fish of every male citizen
sixteen years of ge or older. and use
the fund thus collected to propagate
the fishing qualities of the state.
Be fair to all Give the hunter some
thing but fish for his money.

THE sUFFs AND THE SENATOR.

Five hundred California women
marched in procession to call upon
Senator Phelan of that state to con-
fer with him upon his vote on the
Susan 3. Anthony suffrage amendment
on which the senator will be called to
vote II his capacity Of national legis-
lator. They told him why they came
without circurnlocution and plainly as
any delegation of men might do. The
senator was inclined to lecture them
for mixing into affairs Of other states
and told them they were there as cru
saders, doubted whether they were
right and generally threw cold water.
But when he told them that suffrage
is a privilege and not a right he heard
something drop. Some OF the women
told him what they thought right there
And then the senator grew a little
nettled and told the women that ut Is
too rened distinction TO discuss be-
fore such gathering and that only
legal minds could appreciate. But later
when he saw what manner Of women
headed the delegation the report says
ne "gasped."
The senator seems to have come but
poorly out of It Where he made a
serious mistake was in his attitude
toward the women as women. He
would scarcely have told delegation
headed by eminent male Californians
that the subject was too strong for
their intelligence. And among those
who had called upon him there were
women of mind and station and high
influence in their state. Moreover, ev-
cry Californian woman present was q
citizen and voter Of the state.
There is no reason why those women
should not have called - a delega-
ton upon Senator Pheian. He II thei1

WATCH EN- sQuIRM.

There is something amusing-pe--
ps ridiculous would better express It
in the demand of the Cedar Rapids
Republican that Cosson enforce in
stanter the anti-tipping law This over
anxiety as to the enforcement of the
distinction to the former attitude of the
Cedar Rapids paper as concerns law
enforcement by the attorney general
that it marks a great change. Hereto
fore the Republican has been insistentiy
and even Historically favorable to
local enforcement Of state laws by local
officers, SO much so that it began to
dig trenches and prepare for local de-
Tense against the armed invasion Of
Cedar Rapids by Kaiser Cosson and his
army of state consta ulary." When it
appeared that the saloons were to fall
under the annoyance Of the once over
by the attorney general the Republican
felt like Belgium behind the gates of
Liege. which makes it so much more
notable that it should favor an entente
between Cosson and Cedar Rapids now
1t is so sudden.
II IS also cheering TO Cosson. Not
because the Republican is demanding
law enforcement thru the attorney gen
eral but as certificate of character as
law enforcing official. The Repub-
lican endeavoring to stigmatize Cosson
and law enforcement makes joke Of
itself. If that is the best or worst the
Cedar Rapids paper can find to urge
against the attorney general he may
smile at the childishness Of it if he
notices it at all.
1t also illustrates the utter weakness
of the saloon side of the contention in
Iowa. There is nothing to urge in its
favor. no real argument TO be forward
ed. The resort is such petty nagging
at officials who have been effective and
honest in Office and scandal directed
against legislators who voted right and
drank wrong. Time was when those
weapons had sharp edges. Now they
are like lath sword against AZ cent?
meter shell--in Iowa.
All this squirting Is not because the
state laws are being neglected, but be
cause they are being enforced by the
state when local neglect makes state
| interference necessary. Watch EN-
squirm.
