that he had quit holding grudges; he
said to the writer once, in recent years,
that hatreds were most Improbable.

man could do, after being beaten for
a nomination, was to support the tick
ct. This, he said, meant forgiveness.
He loved poetry, Burns being his ia
vorite author. Like all other men he
admired Shakespeare. He was per-
sistent reader of the bible, and called
it the worlds best literature. There
was nothing openly devout about him.
but no clustered hermit ever more in
tensely believed in Jesus Christ than
did he. He read everything that was
printed about the Saviour. He grasped

BOOZE TRADE; IOWA CITY.
IIowa City Republican,

AS matters now stand. the closing
OF saloons in Iowa City. with open
| saloons at the north end of the in
terurban, means practically free
liquor here, in a trade which no law
nor officer can prevent. II the five
mile law is TO be Of any good to Iowa
City and any protection to the student
body, then saloons in Cedar Rapids
must be closed.
The Republican Is in favor OF one Of
two things, either repeal the mulct law
or amend 1t So as to include Cedar
Rapids in the Iowa City limit. The
latter would be preferable
Four years ago the Republican said
that If they would amend the five mile
bill so as to include Cedar Rapids, II
would support the measure. but no.
body seemed TO take that view Of the
situation.
If such laws are necessary to pro-
tect students, why should not the stu
| dents Of coe college and Cornell coll
lege, fifteen miles from Cedar Rapids
and Ames, twelve miles from Boone
be protected?
Those backing temperance legisla-
ton, can not do better thing than to
see that Cedar Rapids saloons are
closed within the next year.
Drinking among students in Iowa
City saloons Is practically unknown
but even now they get considerable
from out Of town, mostly from Cedar
Rapids, and when the law says they
| can not have liquor. they will be doubly
determined to get 1t, and with cars
| running to Cedar Rapids every hour
| from 5 a. m. to 1890 the next morn
ing, there will be opportunities to get
liquor to this city that will make things
| intolerable. The Republican. in good
faith, asks the legislature to prevent
such situation and unpleasant and
| hurtful condition.

1913 and $4,000 in 1914 over what
would have been the value Of the same
