Editor Times:
Sad to say, once in about every fifty
years or so a great wave of fanaticism
sweeps headlong over this fair coun-
try. We are being overwhelmed by
some such wave today. If a man or a
clique of men would try TO make you
stop eating meat, for instance. you
would be indignant. insulted. outraged.
So would all of US. We would rise up
against this Infamous band. one and all.
and cram their measure down their own
threats.
Now what is the difference between
this and prohibition? 1t is exactly the
same theory.
Does that statue outside New York 5
harbor mean anything to you peoplei
Is IT a symbol of America or a farce
Liberty does not mean exemption from
tyranny without, but also protection
from tyranny within-it means personal
liberty! And prohibition viii mean the
death OF this cherished symbol of the
United States OF America.

Who ought to know besta q man's own
neigh bors and associates In church and
college. or the regular politician"
That's the question the man with the
vote must decide for himself.
The Boone News-Republican says
there are three newspapers using a
club on Kenyon Cummins and Hard
ing" The MRS idea of clubs is a
peculiar one. The only club used on
Harding is one Whitfield out of his
actual record in black and white-if
that's club. The senators have not
been dubbed in any way. When 1t
gets SO that the political action Of
either senator can not be discussed
freely and dispassionately by any and
all editors of the state things have
come to pretty pass. The Mr.. is
twisted. The clubbing on hand Is di-
rected at the newspapers which adhere
to the right to discuss men and records
and political leaders without asking
politicians and loafgivers for rough
draft Of what shall be said There are
newspapers in the state that refuse to
stand in the political breadline.

OLD DOGS AND NEW TRICKS.

Westerners say that wild horse
captured and broken needs but the
whinny of the free herd to break his
bonds and get back with his compan-
ions. It's in his blood.
A candidate for office may Craze in
while the oats are being distributed.
But isn't that candidate likely to hear
the call of the wild when the herd
whinnies after election?
You know how it is. You can carry
cat in a sack and dump it two miles
away from home; but the cat comes
back. It's home to the cat. Usually
the cat beats the carrier back-espe
ciaily If it's a shrewd, keen cat that
likes the place and has always found
good housing there.
Isn't the cat likely to go back home
where the housing was good?
Home is where the heart is. A bus
mess trip is one thing; actual depart
ure is another. When the business is
over the traveller hikes for home. He
goes back to the bunch that calls him
by his first name. It's human nature
to go back home. The "old gang" is
usually the best gang. Friends are
friends. We seek them where they
wait. We come when they call.
What's the answer? Where is a man
likely to sleep, with his own bedfellows
or with stran myers?
The homing instinct is strong. 1t
is as strong among "liberalI' and per-
sonal liberty leaguers as in car
rier pigeons. Throw them into the
air wherever you may and they circle
few times. find their line and are
back for the old dove cote at 100 miles
an hour. Carrier pigeons fly them
selves to death getting back. Turn
liberal loose and where does he head
for?
SO called whisky friendship" is Pc
culiarly strong annd adherent. 1t sticks

than church or lodge affiliations. Age

1t lives where love dies. II seems to
be an acquired instinct unreasoning
but mmuta BILE. Il overrides opposi-
ton, repudiates promises, Is as peril
nacious of life as a Canada thistle.
Habit and training are hard to for
get. For instance: The contractors
sold an old cart horse to Thompson.
The old horse had wheeled a cart from
the quarries for years. When the cry
Fire, Fire" that preceded blast arose
the old horse went out on the run
whatever he might have hitched behind
him. And always after, tho he grew
lazy on the farm and defled whips
end commands it was only necessary
20 shout Fire" behind old Tom" to
see an exhibition of activity. Old Tom
never forgot. And men are lot like
old Tom.
Bring up a politician in the way he
ought not to go and the chances are
that he will depart not from it.

The Junk Box.

The Junk Box.
My father often used to say:
My boy, don't throw thing away;
You'll find use for it some day"
So in box he stored up things,
Bent nails, old washers, pipes and
rings,
And bolts and nuts and rusty springs.
Despite each blemish and each flaw.
Some use for everything he saw,
With things material this was law.
And often when there was work TO do.
He searched the junk box thru and
thru
And found old stuff as coed as new.
And | have often thought since then.
That father did the same with men;
He knew he'd need their help again.
1t seems to me he understood
That men, as well as iron and wood,
May broken be and still be good.
Despite the vices he'd display,
He never threw a man away,
But kept him for another day.
A human junk box is the earth
And into it were tossed a. birth.
To wait the day We'll be of worth.
Tho bent and twisted, weak of will
And full of flaws and lacking skill,
Some service each can render still.

Press

MASON c,IY'S COMPLAINT.

The Mason City Globe-Gazette is in
sisting that the solicitors for brew
cries and liquor houses be suppressed
It desires to know whether any real
effort is being made to get evidence
against the order takers as we'll as
the bootleggers and suggests that with
the evidence in hand it would be easy
to rid the city of few men who al
ways have plenty of money and have
not done an honest days work in
years. Possession of federal tax re-
cetpts as wholesalers Of intoxicating
liquors, the Gazette points out. is pre-
sumptive evidence Of guilt of violating
the state liquor laws.
On account of it's large and unruly
as we'll as ignorant foreign population,
Mason City's bootlegging situation is
accentuated over that in most Iowa
cities OF similar size, but the sugges-
ton of the Mason City paper is is
pertinent in one town as in another.
with outside liquor purveyors sticking
like slime around every town who
ought to be looked after in fashion
phat would induce a change Of resi-
dence to outside the town or the inside
Of the jail.
The order taker' is type. Usually
he has emerged from the chrysalis of
the barfiy or is an oldtime barkeeper
degenerated into beer peddler. If he
is ever a decent citizen or anything
but liability to the town nobody has
yet unearthed a specimen. He Is
usually a city directory for disorderly
places and often a pander himself, a
lazy, worthless, vicious idler and loafer
The Globe-Gazette is right. There
is no reason why such fellows are able
to stay around town with money in
their pockets except one-the careless
ness or cupidity of those who ought to
drive them out. 1t isn't hard task
to get enough on them to offer them
choice between continued residence in
Jail or a permanent change of scene
They ought to be on their way.
However, it is perhaps not mala-
propos to suggest to the Globe Gazette
that it is objecting to that local sell
government advocated and promised
by it's candidate for governor, that
least government which Is the best
government" that "noninterference'
with local officers and local authorities
which the Harding candidacy carries
with it. It is not merely the ordi-
nances Of Mason City that are being
violated but the statutes Of the state
Of Iowa. those foolish and nonenforc.

referred over and over again. II the

MILLIONS COMING FOR IOWA STOCK

There is going to be an enormous
market for thoroughbred live stock
from Iowa in the devastated areas Of
Europe when the war is over 1t is
estimated that Belgium alone has lost
over s1OO.OOO,000 worth of breeding
stock and the French governments
own estimate for losses of cattle
horses and swine in France exceeded
$500, 900, 900 on Jan. l last.
Even before the war Iowa was
breeding more Belgian horses than
Belgium was. more Percheron horses
than France and almost as many
Clydesdale horses as the British Isles.
grand prizes at the Panama Pacific
exposition and now that the studs of
Europe have nearly all been destroyed
where else except to Iowa can Europe
turn to rehabilitate its herds.
The manufacturers are cooperating
to extend their foreign trade into
South America and Europe and the
Greater Iowa Association is at work
on a plan for cooperation among
Iowa breeders of fine horses. cattle.
swine and sheep in promoting the mar
ket for their stock abroad The time
is to come when commissions from ali
over the world are to visit Iowa to buy
fine breeding stock The samples
shown at the state fair this week
are representative of an industry which
is going to bring millions Of money
into this state for the fine stock being
bred upon Iowa farms.

REPLIES TO Mr.. HOOVER.

Times Republican: notice in
your last issue q ietter by A. B. sHoov-
er. in defense of candidate Harding,
simply because said candidate clain.s
to be a republican. Mr.. Hoover Is
surely weak on principle. he cares very
little as to mans past political rec
ord on saloons and morality. just so h.
wears the brand on his forehead My
party right or wrong goes with NJ.
Hoover. Mr.. Harding has had great
opportunities in this state as legislat-
or, and lieutenant governor to prove to
the people his worth!ness as a fit can
didate for governor of great state
like Iowa. He has always been on the
wrong side of every moral and social
question; he stands for destruction in :
stead Of construction. Mr. Hoover
would elect Harding, instead of Meru-
dith and have the clock dial turned
back twenty-five years as to progress
sive Iowa. The kind of governor this
state needs right now is not the kind
that Mr.. Harding would make. but a
man of the moral and social standing
Of Mr.. Meredith, a man who stands
for greater Iowa. Yours truly, John
Clemens. Conrad, Iowa.
