THE ENFORCEABLE SIN.

A Sioux City lawyer who helped
frame the new paving law, is in court
contending for certain clients that the
law is not constitutional" That isn't
so bad. One Of the distinguished law
makers who helped kill the mulct law,
and voted for resubm ission, went on q
three weeks drunk at Cedar Rapids
afterwards. That's consistency with a
ngeance, and fair example Of the
perversity of men in public life.-Ack-

The World was strongly opposed to
the repeal Of the muIct and as strong
ly opposed to resubmission of the
amendment, as was it's unquestioned

It takes half a century to grow q

not only years but infinite care to rear
it. The beauty Of a city Is It's trees
just as it is the beauty Of nature to
be clothed with forests. It il the health
Of a city to have an abundance of
trees, a statement that needs no elu-

Why then should community per-
NIT the butchery Of its shade trees in
order that some contractor may move
an old house! The question Of wan
ton destruction of shade trees is one
which agitates many cities-usually
after serious and irreparable damage
has been done.
The city which permits its shade
trees to be butchered has little pride
and less business acumen. Outside OF
paved streets and good sewage system
nothing enhances the value OF city
property more than shade trees.
To permit their mutilation is tG

An Effect Of 1912.

Ex-President Taft believes that the
officers alone remain in the progress
! sive party. 1.-THE field marshals are
! taking counsel. one with another. but
the forces the privates, have disap-
peared." This is the judgment of
close observers everywhere. The per-
picking thing about the new condition
Is that 1t applies to some extent to all
Of the other parties. One rarely hears
the old boast Of party loyalty in these
days. In its place. we find outspoken
allegiance to principles, with frank
declarations of purpose to support
the candidates and the parties Offering
ciples into effect.
To the man who wants office the
party is of Importance still because it
offers the best opportunity to gain his
end. To his mind the welfare Of the
party is per Sc the welfare Of the ma
ton. The average voter, on the other
hand, looks upon the party as tool
to be used to accomplish q definite
purpose. If another tool promises to
be more efficient than the one In his
hand he will make the change with
out hesitation
The progressive party probably will
fail to become a great and permanent
national organization because of this
Indifference to parties. The great re-
publican rebellion Of 1912 promises to
establish not new party in the land
but an era OF independent voting such
as the country has not known since

nineteenth century.-Lincoln Journal.

der In the European war and while the
United States may have been unpre-
pared with munitions she could have
cut some figure in financing fight.
About our only hope now Is for an
Indian summer. Any kind Of an old

Congress caught a socialist when

A year ago when the war began
twelve prominent officers in the United

would last three years and that its de-
cisive battles would finally be fought
by men not under arms during the

Attendance at the state fair will not
break all records this year. With corn

vesting time. harvesting in the rain

them enough to be worth the $4,000

MOTHER LOST nEa BABY YESTERDAY.

Yesterday, mother lost her baby. NO.
not lost forever in this life, but she
turned him over to someone else Tor
care during a large part of each week.
The school bell rang, a bright, chubby
faced little baby of yesterday started
out in new frock and tie with Dig
brother or sister to guide him, and
trembling from head to foot with both
fear and excitement, entered the big
brick building where he had watched
the older children play when mother
y taken him to school to hear brother
and sister "recite.'
Yes, our baby started to kindergar-
ten. 1t seems only a few months back
that he came, little soft bundle,
snugly wrapped in warm blankets. We
watched for the first tooth only few
days ago, when we confided in the
mother across the way that we knew
they were hurting him for his gums
n { to be in a hurry, for they might be
long time coming thru. Then we
tried to feel them with the handle of
teaspoon-to see if the little worries
would crate. Finally teeth came as
teeth always do.
Then it wasn't long until he took his
first steps. He went upstairs on all
tours, scared everybody nearly to death
and he had to be taught how to come
down again. Finally he could talk and
lisp Mother Goose" rhymes.
But baby is gone He went yester-
day. He started to school. Another
woman who never had baby of her
own but who knows just how they
should be reared, is looking after him,
teaching him to play. to sing and to
march, and how to use his hands. Next
year he will be learning to read, to
write his name, to spell short words,
a. do sums. Henceforth and until he
is able to leave the home into which
he was born someone else will have a
large part in the work of guiding his
destiny
Baby is gone. He has gone to school

According to experts who examined
the hull, the caravel Santa Maria, copy
of the ship which carried Columbus on
his voyage Of discovery in 1492, now
lying at New York, is so weak in her
timbers that she will not be able to
make the voyage to the Panama Pa
cific exposition at San Francisco as
planned. The caravel left Chicago in
the fall Of 1913 in company with her
sister ships, the Nina and the Pinta,
to go thru the great lakes and the st.
Lawrence to the Atlantic and then by
the Panama canal to the Pacific ocean,
stopping for a few days on the way
at the principal cities. They got caught
in the ice in the winter. and the Pinta
and the Nina were SO severely dam
aged that they were sent back last
summer to their original anchorage in
the Jackson park lagoon in Chicago.
The three vessels were presented 10
the United States by the Spanish gov
eminent in 1898 after the close Of the
Chicago fair.

ROOTS DEA1HsEo REPENTANCE.

Like dea thbed repentance from an
old man who has been tottering with
age. comes the speech of Elihu Root
before the state constitutional con-
vention in New York. For the forty
years of his acquaintance, he said, the
government Of his state had been a
government, not of the constitution but
of the invisible government; gov
is no record of Mr.. Root having made
an effort during those forty years to
overthrow this system until the eve of
a candidacy for nomination which
must reunite the political party that
was split on that rock of invisible
government.
Mr.. Conkling was the supreme
ruler IN their state" declared Root,
the governor did not count, legisla-
lures did not count and in a great out
burst of public rage he was pulled
down"
Then Mr.. Platt," continued Root,
ruled the state for nigh upon twenty
was at 10 Broadway with Mr.. Plat
and his lieutenants"
Mr.. Root should have given us the
last chapter when Barnes was the
ruler and Root the chairman of the
convention al Chicago which Barnes
ruled. He now says that a short bal
lot can change the boss system Of poll
tics in New York, but there is a sus-
picion abroad in this land that after
forty gears Of acquiesence and init
mate acquaintance with this system of
invisible government his outcries now
are born more Of ambition than Of
conversion.
Root has been very able man.
There was time when he could have
led a movement against invisible gov
eminent and have defeated it for the
nations good He passed the oppor-
tunity in the days of his strength and
assisted in sending a great political
party upon the rocks and now when
mis- three score years have been spent
with a full draught upon the ten
the time for bearing standard of re-
form for him has passed. The people
Of this country will be grateful to MI.
! Root for statement OF the facts which
have been known to exist but they will
have greater confidence in leaders who
have Displayed the courage and the
conviction to stand out against an "in-
visible government" during all these

HORSE HOLDS OWN IN WAR.
And There's No Danger Of Exhaust
tho Supply in America.

tho supply IN America.
Paul Connolly can I'LL his contract
for Al 900 horses for the French gov
ernment without perceptibly affecting
the supply of horses in the country.
And if he gets 5000 head for the AMI
mails, or ss,2OO.000 for the lot, the sum
he Will receive will be only small
fraction OF the total value Of the ma
tion's stock. The department Of agri-
culture estimates that the horses on
the farms last year were worth ST.
291, 6sS, 900, or an average value Of
about $40 for each of the 20,962,OO0 Of
them.
1t will take very long war apprec-
iably to affect the number Of animals
we have for sale. Our own civil war
resulted in the reduction of the total
number Of horses in the country from
| 6,249,O0O in 1860 to 5,401,000 in 1857;
but this decrease was due partly to the
abandonment of horse raising in a
large part Of the country soverrun by
war. But from 1870 there has been
I, an almost continuous increase to the
present In 1893 the number had risen
from the 100000 Of 1867 to 16.206.000.
| There was a decrease each year until
I, 1900. when the number had slumped
! to a higher figure than ever before
known, and in 1909 the 100000 limit
was passed.
The prophecy that the horse would
disappear with the advent Of the au-
tomobile is like most other prophecies
. made on the appearance of new In
vention. The sewing machine was TO
force the sewing girls into starvation.
| but its adoption has been followed by
an increase in the number Of sewing
girls. And in spite both Of the electric
street car, which released Thousands
| Of hard-worked horses, and In spite
also Of the automobile, which has re-.
! leased thousands more, there still
