for the republican nomination for the
governorship will not down. II 1t be

aspirations at this time it is unfortu-
nate for both himself and the people
OF Iowa. His entrance into the I'm
broglio into which ambitious repub-
licans have brought their party can
result only in compiicating matters all
the more. Not as a democrat re-
publican, or a member of any political
party, but as citizen OF the splendid
state Of iowa, the editor Of this news
paper would advise Mr.. Thorne to stay
where he Is, as the leading and ag-
gressive member of the state railroad

at least another term to defend the
rights of the people against the en-

much money as Germany In naval ap-
preparations and has comparatively
little to show for it. 1t will refuse to
abolish the mail routes in order to
build arsenals and battleships and Gre

will be enough. 1t will stick to the
issue of reasonable preparedness while
refusing to follow a policy of miltar-
ism born out of panic and fostered by
prospect of profit.

NO WAR PANIC IN THE WEST.

Midwestern ministers who have lately
returned from gathering at New
Haven Of ngregational churchmen
from all over the country invariably
express in their sermons surprise and
establishment over the warlike senti-
ment ana attitude OF the east AS they
saw ii the east is war panicky, fright
ened, and ready TO prepare for war as
an immediate eventuality. Coming as
they did from Iowa and western points
is being given calm consideration they
failed to understand the condition Of
mind in the east except as panic or
partial panic.
The average thoughtful man OF the
middle west can see no serious occa-
sion for condition of mind such as
these ministers describe. II there is
danger of invasion Of the United
States by a foreign country the only
immediate or future contingency of the
kind IN sight is at Aqua Prieta where
an unauthorized band of guerillas, led
by bandit, are fighting with another
band which has the advantage OF hav-
| ing been recognized as representative

any nation Of Europe is ready now

war with a nation as powerful as this

COMMERCIAL CLUBS NECESSARY


dubuque Times-Journal.]
Commercial clubs were organized at
Knoxville and Newton, Iowa, on We'd
nesday night. In both places the or
ganization meetings were marked by
the unity of all business interests; also
by an expressed desire Of citizens Of
wealth and influence to work shoulder
to shoulder with those Of lesser power.
Commercial organizations truly rep
resentative Of al 1.-THE interests of a
city are not based on visionary ideas.
Such an organization is necessity to
a city or town that aims to prosper.
1t is made a necessity by the fact that
such organizations exist in other
cities. If there We're no commercial
organizations every city would have
ar even chance even tho retrogression
would follow. but when one city In a
state does make a united effort to
do something it logically follows that
rivals for business progress must do
likewise or take backward step.
