Says Mrs. Putnam.

And if they maintain this Independence
they will not fear divorce.
and freedom Of love is the only
conceivable ideal arrangement. Happi-
ness is based on freedom, and unless
there is freedom in marriage there will
be no happiness.
Love should be free gift. And il,
should have the vitching element Of
romance. But clean romance hasn't
had chance in the world, because
women have been making a capital Of
their only profession They have com
mercialized love-
Mrs. TuInam. who has been married
for nearly nine years, and who looks
surprisingly young, then told Of the
chief fault in behavior which charac-
terizes most marriages. And strange
lv. her cure seems to beard the lion
and make it the instrument to keep
out it's own evils. Fer according to
her society has restricted the social
intercourse of married people to mem
bers of their own sex, on the ground
that breaking down of barriers would
lead to the desire 70 swap wives and
husbands" too. very frequently. 1t
has also held that laws which made
separation difficult prevented people
from marrying when they were un-
suited, and prevented them from put
ting themselves in position where
they should desire 10 swap"
But both these Mrs Putnam declares
to be false. "Nine-tenths Of the Illicit
romance in this world Is caused by the
charm which lies in the secrecy. But
if a man and woman are not sure OF
each other, il the charming uncer-
tainty of the courtship is never en-
tirely removed, the husband and wife
will continually try to gain each
others regard anew They will never
fni the bonds Of matrimony irksome -
for if they do they know they can cast
them off without opprobrium attaching
itself TO their action. Hence | say
that il is freedom 10 attain divorce
which will directly and radically de-
crease the desire 10 have divorce.
"You see. there is now too much OF
the old idea Of possession. A hus-
hand and wife see each other to the
exclusion Of other men and women,
even at the terrible risk Of boredom.

snussIne cowLes.

An office conversation expresses
pretty well the way the holding up OF
Gardner Cowles appointment as MEM
Der of the educational board was gen.
orally considered across the state upon
the facts &c they now known. One
man asked the other What do YOU
think Of that hold up of the Cowles
appointment? Looks like dirty lit
tie trick" replied the other man.
Without further information that Is
about the way the average person who
has knowledge of the man and the
lace and the reasons for the appoint
ment will receive the snub offered Mr..
Cowles. His appointment was gem
orally commended by the press as a
good one. Mr.. Cowles is an excel
lent business man, by way Of being a
publicist and a man with a good grasp
of the educational situation and con-
ditions in thes tate.
Without doubt mis- appointment Will
be confirmed. It was an unnecessary
and rather mean spirited fashion OF
snubbing Cowles and the governor to
refuse it. At least that will be the
general opinion over Iowa unless
satisfactory explanation founded upon
proof Of unitness can be made and
nobody believes that.

law au,ine,s and Crime Business.

The bill for the simplifcation of in
dictments. or the removal of technical
and linguistic snares that are calcu-
lated TO catch the innocent public and
to encourage the professional Grimm
ais and their apprentices. appears to
be meeting with secret opposition at
Springfield. The progressive and pub
lie spirited lawyer can not withhold
hearty approval from so merftorious
and reasonable a measure. but the
lazy, routine ridden, short-sighted
lawyer who has never aided a single
measure Of legal reform Is apt to fight
it tooth and nail because 1t might
"hurt business in the law offices.
Such objections are not stated can
didly, but whatever the cloak or pre-
tense, the real opposition to the bill for
simple indictments is purely selfish and
wholly reactionary. 1t ID as selfish and
unworthy as the opposition to bond re-
form on the part Of the professional
straw bondsman. The state can not
afford to breed crime and to handicap
law and Justice for the sake OF that
business" which tricky, obscure, and
technical indictments bring to certain
lawyers The bench, the bar, and the
lay public are vitality interested In the
proposed simplification Of indictments
and should take steps to expose and
defeat the opposition to the pending
bill. bill that might truly be de-
scrtbed as one designed to discourage
"the crime business" and promote tho
safety and the peace OF the state

ONE GOOD CENSUS.

The Minnesota legislature has been
commended by the press in some parts
of that state for killing the state CEN
sus for 1915.
They're a bunch Of bad actors, the
1915 legislature says the Battle Lake
Review, "but occasionally some little
thing like this enlivens the gloom"
The theory is that the money spent
on state census is money wasted. 1t
carries little conviction with 1t. Its
chief function-in Minnesota, Of
course--is to furnish pap for political
hangers on.
There is something worth thinking
about in the plan to eliminate the mid
decade census taken by the localities
affected. AS to the value of the figures
obtained. for advertising purposes. 1t
is not necessary to enter upon discus
sion. The question really is this:
Could not the state better spend the
money it now puts into the state CEN
sus in assisting the federal government
to get a correct census every ten
years?
1t is notorious that the federal count
is incomplete because enumerators
are paid so much a head. When the
picking gets slim the enumerators In
cline to let go those for whom they
must search. If the state would add
it's help at this vital period. maybe a
complete and correct census for once
might be taken

PREPARING FOR the FINISH FIGHT.

The house of representatives made
no bones of passing eleven dry bills
sent over to it by the senate with the
APPROVAL Of that body. All the long list
wen. thru excent the automobile con-
fiscation bill which was held over for
certain changes.
1t is significant that the vets in the
house helped the dry bills along. Even
the suit case bill received aid and abet-
ment from wet Legislators from wet
districts. The significance of it is that
the issue is to be Joined on the wet
and dry question next election and in
the submission election and that
the vets want the issue to
be defined as plainly as posi-
BILE. 1t is good wet politics be-
cause defeat of the amendment if pos
nent crowd later, if the amenment
wins are are about the only anchors
to wet hope in Iowa
1t is good dry politics also, now that
the amendment has come forth and the
mulct repealed to thoroughly define the
issue. 1t has come to the jumping off
place The fight is on and should be to
finish. If prohibition means anything
1t means to prohibit. If the state in
tends to be dry it should get the
drouth machinery ready.
The temperance element in this state
may sensibly take heed of the wet
votes for dry measures. The future is
in the hands of the temperance people
and those who have brought wet and
dry issues toe to toe for final strug-
gle. The vets will be in solid forma-
ton behind one man. The drys may, il
they elect to be so utterly deficient in
sound political strategy. divide them
selves into half dozen camps led by a
half dozen men, each good enough OF
himself, to find that the primary re-
turns give the nominations to the solid
flied vets. It will be no new thing
if the drys take this course.
II the drys take a leaf out OF the
wet book and forget the native son and
neighborhood candidate to center upon
candidates who each represent them
and their purpose they will win with
ease the governorship and attorney
generalship. With these won and
elected and adequate machinery for
the enforcement Of the prohibitory law
two years will see the fight practically
won. 1t is so in cities that deny the
saloon and will be so in the state; for
all that is necessary is to show a
goodly number Of doubling people that
city or state is better OF without the
traffic.
The question of temperance seems to
be up to the common sense and politi-
cal acumen OF the temperance people.

costly experiment, and one legislature
like the present one is too much and

men, but they would not be greatly in
terested If there was not someone else
in collision with them in our judg-
ment. Is it because they could work

Murphy, of vinton, to The Register

was done in Benton county this last

Of the boom variety. The city's
growth has been steady, constant and

result of numerous causes. not the
least Of which has been that the bust

conservatively. SO that crashes have
been avoided. The number OF fall
ures in business here are surprisingly
small compared with the number Of
business failures in other places This
is due TO the care With which invest

fact that Davenport people have the
money with which to do things with
out going out and borrowing to the
limit. Among the bankers Of the state
Davenport holds the highest reputa-
ton. A number Of other cities In Iowa
