Coffee

The essence of coffee is
hidden in the bean. You
can't see it.
For Schilling's Best we
select the beans with the
most good flavor; clean
them, blend them, roast
them just right, grind
them into even particles
and take-out the bitterish
chaff. Then we pack the
coffee into alright tins.
Sounds easy doesn't it?
It has taken many years

Or suppose that through some
similar mandate it should say

course, these suggestions are
radical-and yet, is this not

UP TO PEOPLE OF IOWA
In few other states have the
railroads had larger share in
progress and development than
in Iowa-a state which stands
without peer agriculturally
and which has within its bord.
ers a greater diversified per
capita wealth aud less of pow.
erty than any other state in
the Union! Surely such a
great commonwealth. I h e
observation-disclosures Of whose pco.
ple is a byword throughout the
Nation. cannot afford to treat
unfairly the millions Of outside
capital which have been in-
vested in her network of rail-
roads and without which her
position among the sisterhood
of states would have been i'm
possible?
Splendid as has been our pro.
gress in the past. Iowa .till
stands merely upon the thresh-
old OF her true possibilities.
and during the next twenty five
years cur farm and industrial
wealth should be increased by
manv hundreds of millions of
dollars. That we We, however,
still need millions Of outside
capital and that these millions
will not be forthcoming unless
we treat fairly every dollar
which has been honestly in.
vested in our industries should
be apparent to. every thought
iul citizen.
In the end, all the people
and the Industries oil 1 state,
Igreat or small, must rise or fall

analysis we are all dependent
upon each other, Thus. the.

American people than this
great jurist who did perhaps as
much as any other one man in
the country to break up illegal
and unfair practices on the
part Of large corporations.
So, too, the Supreme Cou TT
of Pennsylvania held that a
two.cent passenger fare was
unconstitutional in that state
because it was essentially con.
fiscatory. This hi G h court
took the position that capital
invested in railroads is entitled
to earn six per cent on fair
capitalization aud that the ar
bitrary enactment OF two.
cent fare rendered impossible
such a return Upon the lines in
Pennsylvania. 1t also took
the position that railroads not
only have the right to insist
upon 4 fair return on both local
freight aud passenger business,
but that it Is their duty to do
90 in order that one class of
patrons may not be compelled
to pay an inequitable rate to
make up the losses sustained
10 another department..
If the arbitrary enactment Of
Ia two.cent passenger rate is un-
fair to the railroads of New
York aud Pennsylvania. where
there are large centers of pop
ulatlon and where the nations
greatest density of freight ton
mage naturally exists, how
much more unfair is such a rate
in purely agricultural state
like Iowa!
Az result of the action of
Governor Hughes 10 vetoing a
two.cent passenger fare bill, in
NewYork and theSupremeCourt
of Pennsylvania declaring it
con6scatory in that state, the
railroads of both New York and
Pennsylvania are today opera
ting under q two and one half
cent passenger fare. while in
Iowa they are compelled to
content themselves with two
cents per mile. In the mean
time, in further confirmation Of
the population figures cited
above. the total population of
New York State is 9,7l2, 954, in
Pennsylvania 1t is 8,1O7, 942,
while in Iowa it is only 1922

per mile for carrying passen-
gers, the Iowa roads with their
thousands of miles Of expen-
sive branch lines in a territory
almo It purely agricultural and
with no large cities or manu-.
featuring centers should have
little difficulty in establishing
the justice of their plea!
All the railroads of Iowa ask
is that the local traffic shall ]
bear its just proportion of the
expenses of operation, taxes
and maintenancs-apd in ask
ing this they are pleading not
merely for simple justice, but
upon this depends the charact-
er of service which they will
be able to furnish the public
from this time forward. There
is no magic art by which rail.
roads can perform the impossi-
ble-and in the final analysis
the people get the kind of rail
road service they pay for, just
as they do III other realms OF
merchandising.

AS 10 whether the railroads
of Iowa are justified in asking
for some substantial increase in
freight and passenger rates,
we wish to cite the recent de
cision of the Interstate Com.
merce Commission in granting
five per cent increase in
freight rates 10 Eastern lines

doubtless already familiar. In
rendering this decision, the
Commission took occasion
to point out the precarious H.

former troubles of American

mission poiotel out the unre.
munerative passenger incomes
which obtain almost upon every
hand, and especially upon the
local traffic within the different

correct in its view that the

THE MOTE AND THE BEAM.

When Governor Ernest Lister, in his able add
dress to the National Conference of Governors in
Boston this week the all-mportant subject,
Conservation of Natural Resources APPLY
contrasted the methods by which the state of
Washington seeks to protect its fisheries for the
benefit of the present and future generations,
with the utter lack of any attempt at protection
of the fish in the Potomac river, the Eastern
example, by the states bordering on it, he put his
finger right on the great difference between the
East and the West on this question of conserva-
ton-he pointed out to them the beam in their
own eye
1t is because the East, having wasted its own
natural in its earlier years and not even
now taking the proper care of what it has left,
seeks to go to the opposite extreme as far as the
West is concerned and prevent this still vastly un
developed country from proceeding with its de-
served growth along wise and sensible lines. that
the two sections of the country are at such
variance on this conservation question. Our
millions of acres of unproductive, untaxed and
therefore non-revenue bearing lands stare us in
the face all the time; the East has none left and
so the issue there is not nearly plain the results
not so directly inflicted And when, on top of it
all, the East the hotbed Of the cry for conserva-
ton as applied to the West lags so far behind the
West in protecting those of its natural resources
to which that doctrine could and should be APP
Piled, the West does not like the doctrine little
bit.
The West expects the East to practice before it
breaches, but the East has not done in this one
illustration, at least, and doubtless there many
others like it. SO the burden of the governors
address to the executives of the other states,
mostly Eastern, was to tell them what this state
has done and how it has done it, and what it is
continuing to do, and advocating to them that the
true conservation doctrine is the wise of
natural resources without waste and without pri-
vate ownership monopoly for the benefit of pres
ent generations as well as those to come.
Many of our own residents do not know these
facts-that is why the governors address is pub
lshed in large measure in this issue, that
we ourselves may more fully know what
state aer doing. In it there is of valuable
information and likewise clear positive state
ment of the views of the states executive. It is
well worth reading.
