At the county fair races they class
ify the entries by their public records.
Then why not classify the candidates
in a governorship race the same way?
Speaking, Of county fairs do you
realize that the county fair is what
the old fashioned reporter called a
"harbinger Of winter"

Unless the voters wake up and take
notice the proposition to supplant
Judges Deemer or Evans with Theo-
philus will work as the Salinger cam

all around.
Notice those farmers picniCs here
and there with attendance up to 5000?
In these automobile days is's no trick
gether if the attraction is strong. Four
thousand farm folks only means 500
or 600 autos and what's 500 autos in
Iowa? .,
The assertion that the opposition Of
the Des Moines Register to Mr.. Hard
ing is thru personal avenues is not
borne out by the attitude OF the Des
Moines, Capitol. The Capitol was free
to condemn his candidacy during .he
primary campaign and has since re-
fused pleas and derided threats seek
ing it's support for Harding. Why no,
accuse the Capital also OF personal
enmity?

DO YOU BELIEVE IT?

sCedar Rapids Republican,
The modern world is filled with ny.
pocrisy. Most people talk one way anu
act another. For instance. they SPEAK
of altruism, but they proceed to get
al, they can get for themselves. There
are few exceptions. and most OF the
executions are OF men who can not
compete with their fellows in the get
ting business.

TRUTH, NOT PERSECUTION.
pStorv CITY Herald

: There is no doubt that Harding re-
ceived many votes in the primary
election on the claim that the Des
Moines Register was prosecuting him
For a time it looked as tho his sup
iporters would use the same claim with
the same effect when the fall election
comes around, 1t is becoming evident,
however, that the voters are gong u

selves. 1t won't be enough 10 shout

Register says about Harding IL true !
It isn't persecution to tell the ruth
about candidate for office.

PLENTY OF ROOM FOR FAIRS.

The annual criticism Of the Iowa
state fair az an institute has been
heard from the border cities. where
the notion prevails that the fair should
be split up into sections and held al
different places.
In the light Of the huge investment
for buildings and grounds which the
fair association has made and the hiHh
rank that the Iowa exposition has at
tanned, the suggestion OF course is
foolish one 1t does suggest, however,
that Iowa can well afrord TO nod

CLEAN UP THE CITY

The city council OF Idaho Springs
have set aside Friday, April 2S, as
cleanup day. The city authorities o.
our sister city to the south OF us, in
tend to make it the "Spotless Town
Of the whole Rocky Mountain range
and are preparing to make every ef'
fort to have 1t pleasing and attrac.
tive to the eye of the thousands OF
tourists, who will make 1t their Nee.
ca the coming summer.
The City of Central, this spring,
elected a council composed OF some
of our best business men, and it is
to be earnestly hoped that the con-
fidence reposed in them when the
voter selected them for this useful
office, win not be misplaced.
Thousands of tourists and investors
will undoubtedly visit us this sum-
mer, ON account of the wide publdci-
ty being given our gold and tungsten
mines by the EASTERN press. And 1t
is the duty of cur city council (more
especially the street and alley COM
mittee), to see that our streets and
alleys are placed in the most sanitary
condition for the reception Of the
stranger.
1t is an old and true maxim, First
Impressions are Mostly Lasting, 'and
this should be the watchword of the
council, and at once set cleanup
day in the near future, where all the
garbage that has accumulated in
streets and yards can be removed
at city expense, providing that each
lot owner deposits his garbage ON
the street. In case any lot owner
refuses to comply, let the ordinance
governing all towns be applied, and
condemn all such lots or yards as a
nuisance and proceed according to
law.
Let the thrifty housewife with
aesthetic taste adorn her yard with
choice beds of flowers and vines that
these naturally barren and sun-baked
hills may pour forth their balmy
fragrance as tfe sun lights up the
eastern horizon, and casts its first
rays on our lofty crystal peaks.
It Is not only the wish Of the OBJ
server, but many Of our citizens, that
the council will at cnce set in motion
plans. whereby we may have not only
q more sanitary town. but one that
the tourist will delight to look upon.

RACK DISINFEcTs PENCILS
FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN

Lead pencils are germ carriers
which may transmit disease, espec-
tally to children, most of whom have
the habit Of putting pencils in their
mouths. A New Jersey inventor has
devised a disinfect!ng rack to guard
against this danger. This rack con-
sists OF a square metal frame, or
case. Gbcut three inches deep. In
its top are small holes through which
pencils may be inserted. Beneath
the top is tablet Of clay compost.
ton in which are depressions cor
responding to the holes above. Into
these the pencil ends project. with.
out touching the clay and are dtsin.
fected by fomnlin gas exuding from
the clay, which has been previously
charged with that disinfectant. The
