| defense and the defense Of vital Ameri-
can principles.
| The slogan of America first fits all
demonstrations and peculiarly those
which may be passed by societies or
gatherings Of foreign born and foreign
descent. We are of course wherever
we or our ancestors were born all
Americans. The United States is our
country whatever blood runs in our
veins. Otherwise we are not Ameri-
cans but foreigners. The right to
raise a voice of approval or protest for
or against is inherently one Of citizen
ship. And the history of German blood
in time of American stress is essential
ly that of patriotic citizenship.
1t might be pointed out however that
much water has run under the bridges
since George Washington. that much
exists now that George Washington
was not called upon to deal with.
Washington, world changes and
changes in our own country. Three
millions have become 100. 0oO,0 900. The
descendants Of George Washington's
slaves are citizens of the republic
Washington fathered. 1t is new
world and a new America. Let us in
our resolutions and our balancing OF
principles consider further than the
first presidency. The Monroe doctrine
was born after Washington died. Lin
coin lived and was sacrificed for his
country. In resolutions and in purpose
and patriotism let us stand on the
established American foundations
without limitation. Make il America
first, the America Of today as of yes
terday.

IOWA OPINION AND NOTES.

The repu bIican party can elect can

only. That is the nomination of a can
didate equally dry for the same posi-
lions" says the Mt. Vernon Record IN
other words If Mr.. Harding is nomi-
mated he will De defeated. And IN the
opinion OF this paper the only way to
defeat Mr.. Harding Is for the republic
cans to center On Mr.. Cosson. This is
not because Mr. Allen Is not a good
man but because Mr.. Cosson is leading
in his campaign as between The Two.
and the dry forces to win must center
their votes On the dry candidate who
is in the lead"
THE record of Congressman Woods
is about 100 per cent right as far as
representing the interests of this dis
trict, says the Boone News-Republi-
can.

cratic candidate for governor OF Iowa

DOGS ALONG THE HIGHWAY.

There was a sad funeral in Jasper
county the other day when the mother
'of six children was laid to rest The
entire neighborhood turned out and
there was a sadness in every breast
over the departure of good woman.
She was killed in a runaway and two
worthless dogs were responsible for the
tragedy. Every community ought 20
appoint a dog killing day and on such
occasions there should be a general
turn out. Every dog that rushes should
be promptly shot. The lawsanctions
such a procedure because the dog is
trespasser upon the public highway.
The courts have held that the owner of
the dog Is responsible for whatever
damage may result from it's depreda-
tons. The best way to prevent dam
ages ia to kill the dog that makes such
tragedies as that in Jasper county pos
sble. II dog owners would discipline
the animals properly, team. automobile
and motorcycle chasing would soon
stop. A few good trouncings viii con-
vince the dog of ordinary intelligence
that the highway is not for exhibitions
OF canine ferocity.

OBJECTIONS TO HARDING.
INl-nan.lx... Is,...i.,,.


There are certain things that the re-
publican voters ought to consider very
carefully before casting their ballots
for Mr.. Harding. Mr.. Harding is 4
wet. He is avowedly of liberal ten
dency He has the united support Of
the wet element of the party every
where. Furthermore Mr.. Harding is a
reactionary on the road question. He
is opposed to bond issues or state aid
in highway building. In brief, Mr..
Harding is on the wrong side Of two OF
the most vital questions that Iowa has
to face today.
Do the republican voters want to
commit the party to a wet platform
or to a liberal Interpretation OF the
prohibition laws? Do they want to
so before the people as opposed to
permanent road construction in Iowa?
In opposition to the republican NOM
inee Will be E. T. Meredith who de-
clares he is the dryest Of the drys and
is for 365-day roads. VIII Mr. Hard
ing be the grand old party's answer to
this challenge?

THEN AND NOW.

In a circular sent out by the Rock
Island railroad a reproduction Is made
Of one Of the railroads Advertisements
appearing in the official guides for
1879. This particular advertisement
featured the installation Of "magnifi-
cent dining and restaurant cars" on
the limo between Chicago and Omaha.
There is one unoStrusive clause in
the 1879 announcement which brings
to mind the fact that railroads for
merly competed for business on the
basis Of prices and service, just as
many business institutions did In the
past and as q few do today. This
clause states: Sections In our sleeping
cars are 81 less than any other route"
Back In 1879 the railroad managers
had not learned all the tricks Of high
finance" by which many of the lines
since have been looted. At that time
many of the western regions were
sparseIy settled, furnishing only frac-
ton OF the freight and passenger bust
ness OF today, but the railroad lines
into the middle west were Of the most
prosperous.
The earnings were used In building
extensions and IN buying equipment
instead OF in paying interest and divf-
dends on bogus issues Of stocks and
bonds. In 1879 no form Of Investment
seemed more certain Of liberal earn-
ings than those in some OF the stand
ard trunk lines, including this self
same Rock Island. That condition
would have continued under honest
mana cement by It's financiers.

Uncle Horace won the governorship or
Iowa upon wet platform. He sounded
the tocsin from the brewers tower IN
favor of personal liberty and against

THE SERIOUSNESS OF 1T.

mount vernon Record
The agreement among the demo-
Gratis to nominate Ed Meredith for
governor is the most serious PROPOSE
ton the republican party has gone
against in Iowa. 1t is a two edged
proposition-a proposition that will.
serve TO nominate the weakest man
the republicans could nominate in the
primary. and then defeat him in cleo
ton. With advance knowledge that Ed
Meredith will be the democratic nom
inee, on dry platform the vet demo-
Gratis are very likely tpsboltsthe demo-
cratic party in advance. They VIII bolt
the party and turn to Harding In the
primary. as their only salvation. This
will make Harding a formidable can
didate, for while Iowa Is strongly for
prohibition a division Of the dry votes
between Cosson and Allen will return
Harding victor. And while Cosson is
certain to get considerable majority
OF the dry votes Allen may get enough
TO nominate Harding. Once Harding
is nominated dry republicans will fol-
low the lead of the wet democrats and
bolt their party at eletMon, voting for
Meredith. And just so sure as Hard
ing is nominated Meredith will be
elected Iowa is not in humor to
stand for a man like Harding, regard
less of what party ticket he is on.
