ANTI-SHIPPING LIQUOR
BILL BECOMES A LAW

Montgomery, Ala, Feb. 9.-Deliv-
cry of more than one Quart of whis-
key or other Intoxicating liquor to
any one person in Alabama will be
prohibited after June 80 under the
benson anti-shipping bill which be-
came effective today. The measure be-
came law automatically, having re-
mained unsigned by Governor Hen
derson for seven days after its pas
sage by the legislature. The law
directs transportation companies not
to make liquor deliveries oftener than
once a month.
A bill which would prohibit news
papers in Alabama from publishing
liquor advertisements was returned
to the legislature with the COVER
nor's veto. 1t has been made the

when an effort probably will be made
to override the veto. The state

The agricultural regions are de

few hundred thousand people to the
suddenly enforced inactivity Of a
strong and healthy nation of 7,OOO,-

The destruction of stock is of great

this. No great expenditure need be
made. Iowa will be loyal to her own.
1t is only necessary that Iowa give fair
attention t. the whole situation and be
honest and fair.
Some one very foolishly raised q
question the other day az to whether
or not Senator Cummins would resign
from tho senate as soon as he became
an avowed candidate for the presi-
dency. That would be supremely
ridicuiously. It will be recalled that
Garfield was q senator when he was
elected president, and he didn't resign
until just about the time for him to
be inaugurated. There is nothing in
the precedents to lead to conclusion
that any candidate for the presidency
should ever resign any office he might
have until 1t becomes necessary to do
so to take second office. Least OF
all, there would be no excuse for Cum
Minis resigning to become q candidate.
Indeed, there is distinguished prece-
dent for holding two offices at once,
like David 3. Hill did as governor and
senator. There are, OF course. persons
in Iowa who would like to precipitate
a senatorial fight, but that will not be
unless Cummins is inaugurated presi-
dent
Congressman DowelI. Of this district,
anticipates that congress will be called
in extra session before the regular
meeting next winter and that 1t will
be because Of the Mexican situation
on the border He does not sec how it
can be avoided. His theory is that the
United States ought to send to the
border q big enough army to make II
certain there will be no fighting. II
just handful of men is sent there It
will mean the death Of good many. If
an army is sent to the border that will
mean business and show the trouble
some Mexicans that the United States
can no longer be trifled with. then
there will he no fighting at all. II
congress should vote credit and order
that something be done the bandits
would retire soon enough.
There will be several candidates for
republican state nominations from Des

that the supply Is enough to satisfy

that expense is about doubled. They

There were comparatively few
horses shipped out of Des Moines this
week. however, compared with the two
previous weeks and with expectations
for future weeks. After great start
at the first of the week when on Mon

dwindled SO that on some days less
than seventy Ave were accepted. The
