sEcRe1rRY ALIENS TROUBLE.

The secretary of state explains that
the reason his department is from one
to two months behind in forwarding
auto number plates is that the leg!s-
lature failed to give him clerks enough
to handle the mail. Eleven clerks, he
says, can not meet Iowa's demand
when it requires eighteen clerks in
Illinois and l29 in New York state.
If the secretary Of state and the leg
islature only know it Iowa has
about eleven clerks too many at work
in this auto plate business now. There
are ninety-nine county auditors in this
sides all ready and competent TO issue
auto plates and forward the registra-
ton papers to Des Moines. They could
supply the auto owners of their re-
spective counties without expense TO
the state and could hand the plates out
over the counter when the owner ap-
Piled There would be no delay what
ever. No man would have an excuse
for driving his car without a license
plate and hence the many could not
use confusion as their blind TO evade
the license all summer.
All the secretary of state would need
do would be to consign auto plates 10
the county auditors far in advance and
charge them to the, county officer. AS
the registrations were forwarded to
Des Moines each auditor would be
given credit on his ledger account with
the plates sold and he would be held
to account for the rest. The pla .es
would be exactly the same kind of
plates as are now in use.
The Standard Oil Company might as
we'll try to supply kerosene by the gall
lon from No. IS Broadway, y. Y, as
for the state of Iowa TO issue 80, 900
auto plates out Of one office.

traffic in the war zone"
1t is we'll for Mr.. Viereck that the
administration in Washington is SO
generously endowed with patience
>but all patience has its limits. Ever
since the opening of the war he has
written with an unbridled pen. He has
made statements about the govern
ment at Washington for which in Ber
lin he would have been put behind the
bars in hurry if he had made them
about the imperial government Of
Germany. Both the administration and
the American people have been slow
to put any check on the SO called
freedom Of the press But the situa
ton suddenly has changed. The United
States faces the possibility Of a con-
f1ict with Germany. 1t Is a time for all
Americans to stand together. Mr.. Vie
reck might well take his cue from
Herman Rtdder. editor of the New
York stats Zeitung, who, without any
Ifs" Of "ands,' commits all German
Americans to the support Of the presi-
dent OF the United States. 1t is a try
ing time for American citizens of Ger
man descent. They are entitled to the
sympathy and to the confidence Of
their fellow citizens. Such hot heads
as Mr.. Vierick proves himself to be by
his editorial utterances in the Father
land and his near reasonable pro-
nouncements to brother editors do
much to increase the embarrassment
of all German Americans. If Mr.. Vie
rick can say nothing good about the
government in Washington, let him at
least maintain a discreet silence.

IN OUR INSIDE POCKETS.

The Wfseacres at Washington have
counted our wealth. If people of this
nation were to turn everything into
cash each man, woman ana child would
have 1885. But if Iowa We're to do
the same thing without dividing up
with the rest Of the folks every person
in the state would have $3,345 in his
inside pocket. Only one state can show
m ore real money than Iowa-NeW York.
Only one state shows more per capita
body lives anyhow and where of course
the division being made among few,
the individual would get S4,S65. North
Dakota is third in the individual di-
vision of the spoil giving each individ
ual $685. and California next with So
ll3 OF course if techrcalities were to
and California money would be counted
for Iowa for most of il was produced by
Iowa men.
Feel around in your pockets and see
if you have your s3.345 on you. If not
who has yours? Also how did he get
it? How do you come to be shy"
With $685. apiece in our pockets
isn't this talk of Iowa poverty rather
misery? Is there any reason why we
should drag thru the mud on days like
those of the past week when every man,
woman and child is capitalist to the
extent of 1886, Isn't it very
much like the man who refuses
to improve the place merely that
he may gloat over the bank
account and the mortgage roll and who
lends out the receipts from the six cars
of ca tile as soon as he gets it in hand
for fear he may build a bathroom or
buy the boys an automobile"

THE END OF THE LIBEL SUIT.

The Barnes Roosevelt libel suit is
practically over. The jury reports it
self for the defendant. So Mr.. Roose-
welt comes out of his second libel suit
with flying colors as he did out Of the
one in which he was plaintiff instead
OF defendant.
Few men or women goln much by
libel and SANDER suits, except vindica-
ton. That is what Roosevelt went
after in the suit ne brought against
ex president Of drunkenness. If that is
what Mr.. Barnes sought when he sued
Roosevelt he failed to get it. If he
was anxious to discredit Roosevelt be-
fore the country he also failed in that
for the libel suit has been much more
by way Of resurrection than of a
burial for the defendant.
The question of tie costs of the suit
need not annoy either Of the parties.
Both have plen.eous means to indulge
themselves in lawsuits as desire in
SiiiioS "a hCSsSSAty WANcS. ASlOc from
certain revelations as regards politics
and those who seek preferment thru
politics, nothing new has been devel-
oped and that politicians smile in each
others faces and stab at each others
backs is nothing new or startling.
The fact is that the suit has not
stirred up any large and vital interes,
| from the public. 1t has not caused
serious general discussion. The public
has moved away from the questions
and Issues involved in the trial. 1t is
not at all interested in Mr.. Barnes. 1,
| was long ago convinced that he was a
| bad boss and that mis- dismissal from
public life woul1 be blessing 1t has
also moved on and away from Mr.
Roosevelt. Not sc far that Roosevelt
couldn't catch up with the caravan Il
he were to 5estir himself and get ii
step but far and away beyond any ef.
fort of Barnes to align himself.
! Let the case go into the court record!
for coming historians to discuss. A.

BIG FARMS THE CAUSE.
dubuque Times-Journal.l

The real reason for the decrease in
our rural population is Iowa's pros
perity and the high price OF land
The successful farmer of today is not
satisfied with a quarter section Of
land; he wants a section. If he can
not secure it he moves to another

AN INDISCREET ENTHUSIAST.
[Sioux City Journal
| George Sylvester Viereck in the cur
rent issue of The F'atberland which is
published in New York and stands for
fair play for Germany and Austria
Hungary makes the following decla-
| ration:
The German Amer icans stand where
! all good Americans stand. In case a
| foreign power We're to attack the
| United States justly or unjustly, they
would rally to the defense of their
country. II the United States were to
attack a foreign power for good and
sufficient reason. they would be ready
to shed their blood for the country of
their adoption. But they will not per-
nit small clique of disappointed
Oyster Bay politicians and pink editors
to jockey this country into an unjust
war.
But of what stuff is that patriotism
made, Mr.. Viereck, which feels that it
need assert itself only under duress
OF war, when cannon are booming and
shot and shell fill the air? The United
States right now finds itself in situa-
| ton in which it can use all the loyalty
and all the devotion that it's citizens
can afford her. The man in the White
| House faces crisis in which he needs
| the backing and the support of every
good citizen.
And Mr.. Viereck, who boasts OF
what he would do If the United States
should become involved III war-wilai
Is he doing to help hold up the hands
| of the president and the honor OF the
nation? To every German American
newspaper in the United States he has
sent statement dealing with the
probable effect Of the American note
to Germany, and taking not the side
of the United States, but the side OF
Germany. President Wilson has practi-
cally insisted that Germany must de-
sist from submarine warfare upor
tcommerce. Mr.. Viereck says Germany
I can not desist from such warfare IA
long as England keeps up her illegal
blockade" He continues: II a con-
fiict should arise the blame will resi-
upon Washington, not upon Berlin.
\ What does Mr.. viereck say in The
F'atherland about the sinking Of thu
Lusitania, which President Wilson
designates as IAN unlawful and inhu
name act?" That the facts in thu
case absolutely justify the action 81

THE FARMERS FRIEND.
[Parkersburg Eclipse

The auto is time saver. One day
last week farmer friend who owns
one of the popular priced cars. had oc-
casion to-come to town 70 secure some
repairs for a corn planter, which gave
way just as he started the machine.
He came to the house. drove four and
one-half miles to town, secured what
he wanted and was back again and at
work in about seventy minutes from
the time he left home. 3 Had he been
forced to make the drive with a team
about three hours or more would have
been consumed. During the busy sea-
son the auto is surely a. time saver for
the farmer,

Why is it necessary for the republic
cans of Iowa to undergo the agonies
of a wet and dry fight in nominating
state ticket in Iowa next year
Sioux City Journal
For the good and sufficient reason
that statutory prohibition rests not
upon the statute but the enforcement
of the statute. Because the Sioux City
candidate for the governorship is al
ready superceding the legislature by
sneering at the law as foolish and nom
enforcble. Because every effort will
be made by the liquor interests to elect
an attorney general of their own kind.
Because without an active state de-
partment of justice Sioux City's con-
demned chief Of police would still be
turning over the city to underworld
deputies and vice be supreme above the
statutes in Sioux City. If that isn't
enough there are other good and suf-
ficient reasons.
The Italian who haStens home to as
sist in ravishing a chunk of territory
from Austria can always come back to
America and go on shining shoes after
he loses leg. However, if he is wise
as we'll as patriotic he will keep right
on with his business here and try to
get hold Of little ten acre territory
for himself and his family.

Germany Yields to our government
request to refrain from killing our citi-

once pass a law to prohibit absolutely

Public Schools" H. H. Van Meter
said:
IF the people who profess to believe
in the bible would stand for it as
firmly as its foes oppose it, the Chi
cago daily which carries on its head
ing The Worlds Greatest Newspaper
would have given the report stating
that the senate of New York state had
passed bill providing for the reading
of the bible in the public schools Of the
Empire state more than three lines
on the bottom of it's front page and
would not have given the recent prize
fight in Havana, Cuba. the heaviest
headline clear across the top Of its
front page, with a full report follow
ing.
| But this is better than any other
| daily did, as far as am informed. So
| it seems that the editors and manag-
ers of our cosmopolitan newspapers
consider a prize fight Of indefinitely
greater Importance to the public than
| the moral and religious welfare of the
future citizens of this republic.
LET the decent citizens of this land
do their duty along these lines and the
daily papers will no longer insult the
intelligence of readers by placing q
prize fight or scandal before the
bible, in school or out, but will realize
/, that moral and religious issues must
take precedence of degrading con-

The attitude Of Princeton to Billy

told, Of DR.. Erdmann, head of the
theological school-the authorities OF
the university, which is separate in
/ stitution, refuse to give him their inn
primatur, and, indeed, vetoed further
| suggestion that they invite him to hold
evangelical meetings for the students
For this reason Princeton has incurred
the criticism Of certain religious papers
so Prof. Andrew F. West deems 1T wise

why the noted evangelist was moi
