IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

Marshalltown Times Republican:
The Indian is rapidly reaching the
American citizenship stage. In a
row at the Cedar Rapids session OF
the Society OF American Indians the
fussers talked just like congressman
and challenged each other to mortal
combat.
Cedar Rapids Republican: There
has not been year in twenty years
that, on the whole, has witnessed
less loss from the frosts,. although
they came this year a few days
earlier than anticipated. Ninety per
cent Of the Iowa corn seems to h0Ne
been in the clear and all OF 1t is
very good corn too, and it is worth
bushel for bushel as much as wheat
used to be worth.
Waterloo Courier: Perhaps the
New York woman who dropped a
fifty-thousand dollar heart balm suit
to become the defendants bride fig
ured that a bird in the hand is worth
two in the BUSH
Sioux City Journal: The Cedar
Rapids man who was entrapped by a
SIREN and who paid $4,000 in black
mail is old enough SO he will fail to
get much sympathy from anyone be-
cause Of his escapade. But his de
termination, now that he has been
found out, to fight the blackmailers
to finish is entirely commendable.
He may save other men who put off
sowing their wild oats until they are
fifty-one.
Council Bluffs Nonpareil: The
Greeks evidently figure that it doesn't
make much difference who is their
king. They are going to war as part
ners with the entente allies and leave
Constantine, the brother-in-law OF the
kaiser. on the throne. 1t has reached
a point where the king feels. too. that
it Is all right for him to sacrifice
some of his wife's relatives.
Burlington Hawk-Eye: There is q
shortage of men in the cornfields Of
Iowa Or there is going to be a
shortage in very short time. Down
on the Mexican border there are
Idwans who would surely enjoy work
ing for mans wages in the Iowa corn
fields rather than harvest cactus fol
so cents day in the Lone Star state
Marshalltown Times Republican
The purchasing agent for the board
of control Classics navy beans as a
luxury and says that only the wealthy
will be able to eat them if the price
continues to advance. And of course
il they cost more everybody will be
crazy for beans. Why is it that po
tatoes taste better at 50 bushel than
when they are 10 cents peck?

A naive commentary the morals OF the
white man is offered by DIR. r. NJ Anderson OF
the Canadian arctic expedition, just returned
from the north, when he says of the Esklmos:
At the present time should say that they are
less honest than gave them crgot LOT LOT 1 tSin
that they have had yet enough contact with
white to change their nature or demeanor
very much
"As yet',-but give them time. The his
tories of the American Indian and the African
black are sufficient evidence Of what happens
to the simpler peoples when they are brought
into violent contact with the complex ''civiliza-
tom of the white man. Tremendous stamina
ia essential in the "wild'' man, not only to alb
serb the white mans culture, but even more,
to withstand his vices Few indeed are those
who survive.
This phenomenon is dismissed, with compla-
cent self sufficiency, by the white man as mere
" manifestation Of the rule of the survival OF
the fittest. He never doubts for an instant that
The is the ideal Of fitness. Yet after all is it any
wonder that civilization which devours the
weak should give birth to conflict which all
but devours itselfi More brutal as we'll as
more man-this explains Civilization and
why evolution is necessary to eliminate war
from it.
Philadelphia still has the ive-cent loaf unre-
fduced in size. But whether this is because
Philadelphia is much closer to the wheat belt

HUGHES HAS BEST
OF THE SITUATION

Although the presidential election
NAV still be considered in doubt, Gov
ernor Hughes seems to have the bet
ter of the situation. The result is
said to hinge on California, where
Wilson is leading by $500 votes, with
400 precincts still to hear from. As
1O5 of these missing precincts are in
Los Angeles, where the count was
commenced this morning. it looks as
though Hughes should carry the state
by a safe majority.
Minnesota, New Mexico, North Da-
kota and New Hampshire are still in
doubt and it may require the official
count to determine the result in
those states.

uation up to 3 o'clock this afternoon.
