As TO THE WHISKY DRUG STORE

A Des Mo;nes druggist caught red
handed selling booze must pay $500
fine or go to jail. Also his permit to
sell liquors is revoked.
The case of a negro bootlegger fol-
lowed. He is liable to $1,000 fine II the
judge sees At to impose the penalty.
OF the two which deserves the more
severe punishment? Which had the
better understanding of the law and
the consequences Of violating It? Which
was the guiltier, the profess
sional man certificated and pro-
tected in the practice of his
profession or the ignorant negro who
has neither profession nor protection
from competition as bootblack or
janitor?
The druggist who persists in violat-
ing the liquor laws should not only
suffer the loss of his permit but his
certificate to practice pharmacy should
be revoked. The law provides so much
and the state should expect conformity
with its statutes from those who are
given its Endorsement as members of
an important and learned profession.
The day of the whisky druggist and
the whisky drug store should set with
the sun of the saloon.
1t is the easy and effective way.
Take the bookkeeping druggists cer,!a-
cate away. Once that policy is made
plain there will be an end of whisky
druggists and drug stores in Iowa.
Few men who have spent years OF
effort and borne the expense that is
required to gain pharmacists degree
will risk their certificates against the
profit Of Illicit liquor selling; and those
who are ready to risk SO much do not
belong Of right in an honorab BILE pro-
| fession.

some way to avoid pensioning appli-
cants than seeking into the need Of
those who apply. The assertion that
other counties are shipping widows to
Des Moines is so absurd in the face Of
the figures that show SO widows PEN
sions as to be ridiculous. There are
ninety eight widows on pension in
Polk.
Loose Tipped charges and thought
less assertion do vast harm to charity

The Sioux City Journal in making
some deductions from the report in
the Capital that Senator Joe Allen
has expressed willingness to submit
his candidacy along with that OF At
torney General Cosson to committee
of drys attempts to show that Aliens
strength has made a remarkable
growth. The Journal declares that the
Senator refused to consider caucus
on who should be the representative of
the temperance forces in the race for
the republican nomination for gov
ernor when it was preached at the
close of the legislature X says the
Pocahontas legislator announced his
candidacy months in advance in order
fearing the Cosson strength. The
Sioux City writer takes the recent
stand of Senator Allen to mean that
he is now confident of his victory as
result of a state canvass.
In the first place Senator Allen all
along has been willing to go before a
committee of drys and to withdraw II
it was found expedient in favor Of a
stronger man. General Cosson was
equally willing to arbitrate the matter
al the close Of the LEGISLATURE Mr..
Allen has renewed his offer and Cen

him.
There is feeling that both Allen
and Cosson and the other candidates
have been too hasty in starting their
political campaigns About the only
good an early campaign does is to get
the farmers mind off the crops and
we doubt very much whether 1t has
been successful in that particular.

"After All the Best"


II life could last forever
And on LIES laden tree
The leaves would alter never
Dear friend for you or me-
If friendship would not sever
And to Sargossa's sea
Our argosies drifted never
How fine this world would be!
If all men thought us clever
And stinted not their praise.
If constant brave endeavor
Insured us lasting bays;
If virtue all men wanted,
And none were glad to see
The signal red vice Haunted,
How fine this world would be!
If youth could last forever,
With all its sang and bloom
If fate, the mischief weaver,
Should slumber at her loom
II no remorse assailed us
Nor battling mystery
Nor friend nor fortne failed US
How fine this world would be!
But since some call us evil
And others deem US dull,
And since life's cup Of sorrow
Brims-and is over full
And human pride and passion
Lie heavy on the breast,
Perhaps deaths ancient fashion
Is after all the best.

FINDING MARES NESTS.

Judge McHenry, of Des Moines. is
quoted in a Des Moines newspaper as
believing that other counties are ship
ping widows to Des Moines in order
that Polk county may support them
and their children on widows pen
sions. Judge McHenry has allowed
two widows pensions a week for sew
eral weeks. This has wrought upon
him to the extent that he seems to
see the other counties in the state de-
populated Of widows, all crowding into
Polk. AS the record runs, Polk is pay
ing little over $4,000 this year in
assistance of SO widows with 23s chill
dren of pensionable ages.
Folks population approximates 1885,
600. That includes city Of more than
100000. So that the number of widows
to whom this biggest county in Iowa
affords assistance thr;: pensions is AZ
one to about 1900 Of population. OF
those rendered assistance widows and
children the average aid would be
about $50 to the individual.
| Blackhawk county, with a popula-
ton approximating $4,000, pays out
5000 In round numbers for widows
pension. Marshall county, with about
$4,000, pays s4,57s in wild ow's pensions
Marshall county has % widows and
81 children on the pension roll. She

IOWA OPINION AND NOTES.

johnson county is now face to face
with complete Generalization Of the
rural route service" says the Iowa City
Republican. The routes are reduced
in number and the old ones are length
ened. The only excuse for this is the
necessity Of reducing postal expenses.
The president has directed the post
master general to reduce operating eS-
penses in the rural routes 100000.
When mails are late, when bad roads
prevent delivery and when people have
to 70 from a half mile to a mile for
their mail, they will know who is to
blame"
We've had 5000 land in Iowa for q
number Of years, but no one has been
saying anything about 200-bushel
land" observes the Davenport Demo-
crat.

done anything in this move for the
