sTRAWS THAT SHOW DIRECTION.

The Times-Gazette, Of Eagle Grove,
Ii conducting a poll of voters seeking
to ascertain the sentiment Of its sub
scribers and readers on the governor
ship Quoting from its headlines:
'Cosson Leads in Straw Vote" Leads
Allen by Nearly Two to One" WON
an Suffrage Favored in Eagle Grove"
The Times Gazette, reporting the
vote so far received says:
While it isn't large yet it no doubt
Is significant and in a great measure
expresses the general sentiment of this
locality. Cosson leads Allen nearly
two to one, and if this vote shows any
true sentiment of the community he
will receive over 81 per cent Of the
wright county vote on June 3.
AS to woman suffrage. the vote in
favor is one better than two to one.
The. county this morning of the bal
lots cast shows the following result:
Cosson, 40: Allen. Il; Harding 10;
kuehnle 10; for woman suffrage, so;
against woman suffrage. 81.
The Eagle Grove poll corroborates
out the poll of the Des Moines Capt.
tai taken from all quarters of the state.
The Capitals poll indicated very SINH
lar strength for Cosson as against Mfr
Allen while giving Harding a larger
percentage that he attains at the
Eagle Grove
AS the campaign progresses the
comparative strength of Cosson will
probably become more and more evil
dent. There is determination ap-
parent in the vote that belongs be-
tween Cosson and Allen to weigh the
strength of the two and cleave to the
one who may be able to get the 50
per cent requisite to a nomination.
that have so far been
made public point the Cosson way.
The Capitals poll. the Gazette's poll.
the Endorsement of the businessmen's
temperance associations all blow in the
same direction.

NEUTRALITY.

Neutrality is an effort on the part
of nation to straddie a picket fence
without falling of on either side.
When the European war broke out
several nations decided to act as in
nocent bystanders and hoist the neu-
trail flag, They also hoisted the price
Of ammunition. automobile trucks,
cavalry horses and submarines, doing
one Of the most thoro and satisfac-
tory jobs of plain and fancy hosting
ever known. The principal business
Of neutrality at the present writing is
to deplore the war with one hand and
cash checks with the other. the result
being that two schools OF neutrality
have sprung up in congress-, one pro
and one con.
One of our most distinguished neu-
trails Is Spain, which was sound1y
neutralized by the United States In
1898 and has remained in that condi-
ton ever since. Spain has nothing to
sell except it's honor, which is SAFE

wages at that. He wasn't a big man

never got an important looking letter
insisting on his presence. They didn't
stop the meeting while somebody tele-

get along without him. But Bill Henry
always got a chance to drop his nickel
in the slot after the plan was formed.

Rockefeller amounted to a little more
than one and one third million dollars
last year.
That Is lot Of money. Most Of it
went where 1t worked for human good.
Mr. Rockefeller is entitled to all the
credit due him for its expenditure.
This question Of credit for human
help isn't to be counted in dollars like
the price of land or the balance at the
bank. 1t is rather a. hard thing for
most Of us to realize that.
Somehow John D. with his vast ex-
penditures suggests Bill Henry Jones

so different in sum. As to size, that
Is what we are talking about. The
size Of q charity or q blindness when
1t is properly estimated isn't expressed

The president Is continually set

properties are spreading false stories
Of Mexican internal conditions In or
der to bring about Intervention. We
do not believe. American owners
of Mexican property are not to be
blamed for expecting this country to
protect their interests. but they are
asking this in manly way and are
not spreading false stories or trying
to embarrass the administration. Any
criticism Of the Mexican situation, 1t
seems to us, should not be directed to
the long suffering Americans who have
waited vainly many months for pro-
lection from our wild and woody
neighbor on the south. The admin
istration has undertaken to handle the
situation and the way to do 1t now
is without gloves. 1t is no time to
stop to find fault with American cit
liens. We know in our own minds
that we are not conducting a cam
paign Of aggression and we are not
seeking an inch Of Mexican territory.
It il Don Quixotic. however, to stop
at every cross road to explain the
matter to the Mexican bandits. We
have had provocation enough to war
rant capturing Villa, whether it suits
the other Mexican bandits or not.
Least of all should we stop in our
pursuit of Justice to scold American
citizens who have been confident
enough to expect protection from their
government.

CHILDREN AND AUTOMOBILES.
lCedar Rapids Republican,

If the police can stop children on
roller skates from catching hold of au-
tomobiles they will be doing the pub
lis a great service. The parents do
not seem to be able to attend to the
matter. In spite OF all they can do,
the boys and girls will monkey" with
the automobiles. They have been seen
hanging to cars from the railroad
tracks to Fourteenth street. and dan
ger threatened them at every foot OF
the way. It places nervous RESPONSE
bilities on car drivers. A recent acct
dent, in which two women were in
jured. was probably wholly due to the
hanging on Of children, diverting the
attention OF the woman at the wheel.
Children must have their fun. They
must have room for activities. We
can not expect them to sit indoors when
the birds are singing in the leafless
trees and the sun is inviting them out
TO romp. We can not confine them even
to the yards Of their homes. We have
not play places enough and. therefore.
they must be permitted to use the side
walks and even the streets. 1t is the
duty of automobile drivers to operate
their cars SO that they VIII constantly
have a margin Of safety against COL
lisions even with skaters. And there
Is plenty Of such margin II they will
run according to the laws, not to ex-
coed fifteen miles an hour.
But chifdren should be taught to let
cars alone. They have no right to
hang on. They have no right to touch
what Is not their own. But how can
We get that lesson impressed on their
minds7

PLEADS FOR THE STUDENTS.

iowa City Republican,
1t is very seldom that the Republican
offers even a suggestion relative to
university affairs, but when fourteen
students are suspended from the insti-
tuition for tri1ing matter. 1t is proper
that such action should receive public
attention. 1t seems that these students
went to the armory and decorated it
for coming social function: They did
this in the night time, 30 as not to be
absent from their classes during the
next day. This is the version that
comes from the student body and from
friends Of the suspended students who
have investigated the, affair. When a
professor gets an elevation In author
