of Great Britain, yiscount Grey makes
the declaration that the British govern
ment Is not .unmindful Of the "obliYa-
lions Of those who possess sea power
nor OF that traditional policy pursued
by the British empire by which such
power has been regarded as . trust
and has been exercised in the interests
OF freedom" He insists that the re-
strictions complained OF are not OBJ
noxious to this sense OF duty.
Opinion In the United States differs
with British opinion as to the benefl-
cence of British use Of sea power. No
doubt Great Britain would admit that
her enemies also hardly look upon her
control OF the sea az a trust which has
been exercised in the cause Of free.
DOM The nations do not look upon
British sea control with any greater
favor than German land control.
viscount Grey states that this sys-
tenn Of prohibitions will not be carried
further than is absolutely necessary. 1t
has been forced upon us by the cir
cumstances Of the present war;" Fur

tenn as this novel expedient." II this

FREE VERGE.
J 10 SeoIk8 Ulk.d eloee6ee. lkA&1

Free verse Is an effort to write
poetry without using any Of the in-
gradients It Is called free because
under our laws anybody can write it
ard escape going to Jail. This IL one
ct the laws oversights which causes
Countless thousands to mourn.
Free verse Is produced by taking
q number Of well-known English
words and lining them up against the
wall without rhyme or reason. This
results In q high grade Of poetry which
is about as durable as cream pun,
but which can be readily understood
by anybody who has nothing else on
his mind or stomach.
The object Of free verse is to wean
the affections of the public away from
the communicating Influences Of the
classics. As a cure for the reading OF
poetry in any form 1t is almost As
efficacious as marrying into a family
Of seven small children and hand
power washing machine. The only
difference between free verse and
bland verse is that the former Is about
thirty five degrees banker than the
latter and can be written by the linear
mile without a mental struggle.
1t must be admitted. however that
free verse Is great Improvement over
much of the original poetry which
ever and anon lifts sad eyes above the
horizon 1t is painful to note the
frantic efforts Of the Original poet to
find two words which will lie down in
the same stall but the free verse

as quickly a. possible. It hadn't rainsd

WHEN the GUNS BEGIN TO SHOOT.

Des MONIES is considering a problem
what is it to do with and for its
members of the Iowa guard when the
regiments are returned to private life
from public service 1t appears that
the places of the men who left Jobs
TO accompany their companies to the
BORDER have been filed. Some EN-
p.oyers agreed to keep the jobs open
Tor two months. The men have been
held on the border beyond that time
and now the Des Moines chamber of
commerce is seeking some method Of
pacing the man who has lost his lob
tecause he went for a soldier.
1t seems that this is a problem for
the employer and the general public
also as we'll as for the chamber of
commerce The state has enthused
vastly over the personnel Of its troops
on the border, the appearance, train

soldiers have been noticeable for the
class they displayed in comparison

We cheered them on their way. We
waited the event whatever it might be
with confidence that the Iowa regi-
ments would do their part in all honor
to themselves and to the state. What
are we going to do when
Johnny comes marching home
to find himself out Of a Job?
First, what is the employer and en-
ploymeI1t he left going to do, then
what lie the public that cseered going

It IS the "ingrabitude of republics
that forgets service. We gather about
the boys when they march away rep
resenting the glory and power and
patriotism Of the state or the nation

we meet them marching home again
in similar fervor and excitement; but

explains the vote Of Dubuque county
as free from any suggestion OF wet
ness Dubuque democrats voted for =
republican thru pure and wholesome
desire for good government and ad-
mln.stration Of state affairs, aided BY
the Indignation stirred within their
marty tosoms by the opposition Of re-
publican newspapers to republican
nominee.
It is possible to smile at funeral.
The insistence of the Dubuque papers
brings grin to the republican boilers
even tho they are furnishing the prin-
cipal attraction of the obsequies. A
funnier thing has rarely been said than
the explanation of the wet vote, the
pert and Scott are dryer than the in
terror towns and counties and that
thousands. of voters in those cities and
counties were influenced by newspa-
pers they never saw, let alone read,
anu from which the exchange editors
of the home newspapers carefully
avoided reprint, to vote republican
ticket for the first time in their lives.
The campaign is over. There is no
which found themselves forced to OPP
pose y republican nominee to continue
it. But when the Dubuque newspas
pers epdeavor to establish an alibi for
the wet vote it is to be noted as one
of the jokes of the campaign, especially
SO when the leading democratic news
papers at burlington and Davenport
have fully explained the results in their
cities and counties as directly due to
the anxiety Of the wet democratic vote
to cast its ballot where 1t thought it
would count for personal liberty.
Dubuque has been doing considerable
business against bootleggers. There
have been several convictions there.
Let us hope that the judge under
whom they were secured will be able
to gain a election. Also that the
eX- saloonkeeper Of Dubuque, now To-
Gated Just across the river will con-
t,nue 70 call for prosecutions Of liquor
law volators in Dubuquep roper. Per |
hays :hey might advance as an alibi |
that they are impelled to the demand |
by wholesome desire TO see the Iowa
prohibitory law enforced.

pended upon today to give saloon

DOCK the BALLOT, PRESERVE PRIMARY.

The non partisan judiciary law is

vorce the selection Of our supreme

it stunts the judicial candidates off to

come OF less Importance to the average
voter than the third party prohibition
or the socialist tickets
We are forced by experience with
the statewide primary to shorten the
primary ballot and we can't get along

might as we'll cut the nominations in
our primaries down to a few of the
most important offices ana vitalize the
convention by giving it something to
do.

DROP THE PAST.
[Sac SUM -

After the alignment became clear
there could be no doubt in the mind
Of any careful political observer that
". L. Harding would be elected the
next governor of Iowa The situation
was such as to draw to him or to drive
to him tremendous vote from the OPP
posing political party. The thou
sands Of votes withheld from, him by
members Of his own party who did not
like his record were more than made
IN by other thousands from the other
political party who thought they did
like it. Now that he is elected it may
be well to drop the past. Young and
vigorous. optimistic unusually cap
able, with no little tact and political
acuteness, Mr.. Harding possesses
qualifications that go into the making
Of good public official.
