We have mislaid the Tampa Times
containing some comment on our
reference to lawyers as the dominat-
ing influence in the legislature
which prevented any change in the
unjust features of the present libel
law. But our recollection is that
the Times either questions the ac-
curacy of the statement or thinks
that il such a condition exists the
newspapers should seek to measure
influence with the lawyers in an eff
fort to change it. 1t is hard nut
to crack. That lawyers will con-
tinue to shape our legislation can
hardly be doubted. They do it in
every State in the Union and in the
national Congress and have from the
foundations of the government, and
there is nothing in sight to indicate
that this monopoly can be seriously
disturbed BY the nature of their
calling they are experts at the game,
and unless they can be prevailed on
either to keep out of the Legislature
or to consent to diminish their
chances to secure damage suits in
libel cases by the enactment of a less
rigorous libel law, we don't see any
hope of relief. II is just the kind

If Northern Republicans suppose
for a moment that the death Of the
grandfather clause" in Southern
statutes is going to open the flood
gates and turn loose negro MAORI
ties to control the South or any part
of it, they are reckoning without
their host. We no longer live in
reconstruction times when the ven-
omous hates of war dominate one
section and determine it's attitude
toward the South and the latter, tied
up as conquered territory, had scant
power to help itself. The North has
grown wise to many things it didn't
know then, and no longer desires the
ruin and humiliation of the South
through the negro vote; and, while
the grandfather clause" but a
temporary device at best, has been
wiped out, educational and property
requirements and poll tax payments
will serve the purpose sufficiently to
keep the whites in full control of
the State, county and municipal gov
ernments and the representation in
Congress. Negroes can't be dis
franchised enmasse nor is it neces-
sary that they should be, but they
will never vote in sufficient MAORI
ties to imperil white supremacy
The death of the grandfather clause
will solidify the whites of the Soutl
and make white Republican part!
worth the name practically impos
sible here. When for any reason
whatever. either through the de
cision of courts, statutes of Congress
or hostile planks in party platforms
the supremacy of the white race
challenged the whole body of tina
race here will accept the challeng
and find little or no trouble throug
perfectly legal methods in savin
these American States of the Sout
or any part of them from the into
lerable degradation of negro rule

Tama, Aug. 1.-THE o'clock car on
the Tama and Toledo electric line this
morning struck and killed E. c. Pen
nell, a wealthy retired farmer. Mr..
Pennell had left his home in Tama
and started to cross the tracks. He
was so years of age and quite deaf,
and failed to hear the gong or the
warnings shouted by men on the front
vestibule of the car.
Altho the tracks were slippery and
the car was coming down a per cent
grade, the car was stopped within a
few feet after striking Mr.. Pennell,
who was hurled to one side. The body
was not mutilated and not severely
bruised, and 1t is believed Mr.. Pencil
died of shock He was carried to his
own home and died few minutes after
the accident. No blame is attached 10
the car crew. Merle Gadbury was the
motorman and Alfred Hutchinson the
conductor.
MIR. Pencil was an old settler and
for many years he resided on his farm
near town, but moved to Tama several
years ago and devoted his time to the
care of an invalid wife, who died two
years ago. He is survived by two sons
and was the owner of considerable
property.

SHOPS ENLARGlNe FORCE.
Milwaukee to Add Fifty Men to EN-.
ployes at Dubuque.

Dubuque, Aug. 2-Announcement
has been made that the Milwaukee
shops will increase their working force,
in the car department. fifty men. Hours
in the locomotive shops have already
been increased from thirty-two to forty
hours per week.
The increase of men and in working
hours is due to the fact that cars and
locomotives will be in large demand
when grain shipments are on. Thou
sands and thousands of additional box
cars will be required for the handling
of the record grain crop. Wheat and
oats will soon be harvested and as a
result OF high market prices, it is be-
lieved farmers will sell largely from
the machine instead of storing.
Thousands of cars are side-tracked
at various points on the Milwaukee
road and the company realizes that in
order 10 meet the demand early prepa-
ration in getting the equipment In
shape is essential. Many cars are be-
ing rushed TO the shops, some for minor
repairs while others will have TO be
completely overhauled. There are many
locomotives standing idle in the loco
motive department some badly in need
of repairs and overhauling. In order
10 get out the rush orders extra hours
are required.
In view of the fact that work has
been slack az the shops for months
past, that there have been many with
out regular employment and many
others on short hours, the news set
forth above is received with gratifica-
ton thruout the city.
