The price of farm lands has be-
come so fictitious that it is beyond
all reason. Talk about watered rail-
road stocks and the like; farm val
ues are watered as badly as anything
can be. 1t increases taxes, rentals
and makes it difficult for young
man to own a good farm in the old
err states where it is desirable to live.
farm values should be determined by
the productive capacity of the land
and not by speculative sales.
This land question has got to be
faced whether you like the proposed
method of driving big alb
sentee landlords and SPECTATORS
from cover or not.
We ask the readers of The Home
stead how they would like to have
a man for governor of Iowa who
compares them to the financial pir-
ates of New York and draws the
comparison to the, farmers disad-
vantage? How would you like to
have the affairs of this state turn
ed over to man who says that priv
ate ownership of land has got to go
you like it or not How
would you fare with man in the
chair who saws single tax
has got to be faced without regard
to what you think?

times past Iowa has been barked at
for not being among the first to
adopt new proposals, but has lived
to be glad that it first permitted
them to be tried upon the dog"
Perhaps Shakespeare did not have
road making in mind when he
wrote:
"Be not the first to try the new,
nor yet the last to lay the old
aside"
But the farmers of Iowa feel that
his advice is superior to that of
those who are impatient about hang
ing on their necks a heavy bonded
Indebtedness for the purpose of con-
|structing S65 day roads.
Road improvement is rine-tenths
labor.
There has been improvement in
road construction and maintenance
since the state began passing laws
with that end in view. There was
vast improvement in the highways a
few years preceding the enactment
of the recently made road laws. That
meant that labor had responded to
sentiment in an effective manner.
AS long as there is no abatement in
the sentiment favoring better high
ways, there will be no abatement in
the progress of good road building.
In other words, we are back to
that old theory of law making that
will live as long as popular govern
ment lives-frst the sentiment, and
then law co-ordinating with that
sentiment.
1t was true of liquor legislation,
and it is true of road making, and
the man who shuts his eyes to that
theory is neither valued legislator
nor a safe guide to legislators.
Good road making is not at an
end merely because taxpayers do not
take up great road paving propa-
gandas. First we need grading and
drainage. In some localities they
have gravel at hand and want grav-
ell on the highways. But there is
neither stone quarry nor a gravel
pit south of the Rock Island rail-
road, from which any considerable
road improvement can be made. The
men who pay the taxes in such To-
calities are ready and anxious to
make the best highways they can
from the material they have at
hand. l stand for the best road that
the individual who has TO pay can
afford to pay for.
Let us reduce overhead expense,
simplify the method of getting to
actual road work, and proceed with
road construction.

FOR THU ARMY.

What would appear to be the most
effective efforts yet put forth by the
government for bringing the regular
army up to the strength required by
the new army reorganization law
has been put into effect in Iowa.
The war department has subdivided
the state into two recruiting dis
tricts.
One station, at Davenport, will
include all that part of the state
east of the ninety-third meridian,
comprising all that part OF the state
east of line drawn between Mitch
ell and Worth counties on the north
ern boundary, and Appanoose and
Wayne counties on the southern
boundary.
The other recruiting station will
be at Omaha, taking in all the CEN
trail and western parts of the state.
There has been some agitation to
have but one station for Iowa, To-
Gated at Des Moines, but the de-
partment will not make the change
for the present, as the Davenport
and Omaha stations are now in ex-
istence and each is headquarters for
auxiliary stations in adjoining
states.
Under the new recruiting regula-
lions it is provided that each sta
ton must furnish one recruit per
thousand of population. giving a
grand total In the United States of

DEMOCRATS DON'T WANT 1T.

Manson Democrat: Some of the
republican papers are trying to
make themselves believe the Des
Moines Register is democratic
newspaper because it is supporting
Meredith for governor. In view OF
the fact that Meredith is the only
man on the democratic ticket receiv-
ing the support of the Register, the
charge that it is democratic can
hardly be made to stick. The re-
publicans should keep their skunk
in their own campmeeting and not
try to throw it into the democratic
tent. -E

the country that such a law is justi-

The central east railroads are not
going to be caught by the hold-up
law if they can prevent it, and the
chances are they can. The roads
within the central freight associa-
tion territory-that section east of
the Mississippi, north of the Ohio
and west of Pittsburg and Buffalo
have filed an application for in
crease in freight rates averaging 10
per cent. This is the direct result
of the wage increase law enacted by
congress under threat of the train
men. That the railroads will be en-
titled to an increase in freight rates
will be conceded and the farmers
and shippers of Iowa must get ready
to pay the fiddler. But how is such
a proceeding going to reduce the
high cost of living, OF which we
heard so much during the campaign
of 1912? AS the results of the wage
increase legislation forced through
congress soaks into the people there
will be more and more opposition
to it and if the opposition Is as
strong as it should be the law Win

Jack Dalton of the Manson DEM
ocrat is very happy in the conclu-
sion that the fight being made in
Iowa by certain republicans against
the head of the state ticket is going
to be of great value to Wilson on
election day. Jack concludes that
because of this fight the president
stands good chance of carrying the
state. The Freeman-Tribune be-
lieves that Jack is hopeful without
just reason. This paper doesn't con-
cede that the political combine at
Des Moines is powerful enough to
even beat Harding, hence its inf1u-
ence will not land the state against
Wilson. The Register and Leader,
however, the chief spokesman of the
combine, frequently takes lefthand-
ed jabs at Hughes calculated to in
jure him more than would open OPP
position, which it is too cowardly to
assume.

Ex-President Roosevelt, who ap-
pointed the Anthracite Coal Strike
Commission and forced the owners
of the Pennsylvania coal mines to ac-
cept arbitration of their controversy
with their employees, has decided to
go to Wilksbarre and explain to the
very miners who were the benefic-
iaries of his insistence on arbitra-
ton, how President Wilson sacrific-
ed the principle of arbitration when
he took his stand against arbitrat-
ing the demands of the Railway
Brotherhoods, how he has injured
the cause of organized labor, with
the possible exception of the men,
beers of the Brotherhoods, and how
their advantage is merely temper
airy, because Mr.. Wilson has by his
course taken negotiations regarding
all questions affecting the conditions
of labor from the unions and the
employers and established the pre-
cedent for fixing them by legisla-
tive enactment. He will show that
the inevitable tendency of Mr.. Will
sons course is to reduce the labor
unions to mere insurance agencies
and that this is a backward step for
organized labor.

Candidate Hughes announces, that
he is in favor Of the eight day.
but it seems to be too much to ask
him to indorse an eight-hour law
passed by a democratic congress-
Register and Leader.
The Register and Leader has be-
come so accustomed Of late to mis-
representing the facts and distort-
ing the record in favor Of democracy
that it has apparently became a pas
sion with it. The so-called eight
hour law doesn't provide for an
eight-hour day, and the Register and
Leader knows it. 1t is simply an in
crease wage law, enacted under dur
ess to avert a strike which the bene-
ficiaries of the law were threatening.
The exhibition Of little of the
Hughes courage by the president OF
the United States would have avert
ed the strike in an honorable way
and the nation would not have been
humiliatsd by seeing congress and
the president grovel in the dust be-
fore 100000 voters just before cleo
ton. Roosevelt prevented strike
in the coal fields, not by getting scar
ed half to death and calling upon
congress to surrender to unjust and
unreasonable demands, and to do it
in hurry, but by standing four
square and plainly telling the men
who were threatening to paralyze
the business of the country that they
would be held to a strict accounta-
bility for results, and everybody
knew that Roosevelt meant just
what he said. There was no strike
and the men holding aloof the bfud-
gen did not score victory over the
people of the United States.

The Freeman-Tribune is not
cocksure that the repeal of the
mulct law is genuine temperance
legislation. That law was enacted
by the republican party after state
wide prohibition had proved unsat-
isfactory. The mulct law put hun
dreds Of saloons out Of business that
had been fourishing under prohi-
bition. 1t is to be hoped that pub
lie sentiment will now sustain pro-
hibition in the centers where it was
openly violated few years ago,
There are many temperance people
who were not yet ready to. do away
with the mulct. believing it was the
best method of dealing with the
liquor question in certain towns.
Moreover, if the voters 60 against
prohibition at the polls many of
those instrumental in bringing
about re-submission will admit they
made mistake. Being opposed to
the repeal of the mulct and looking
with suspicion upon re-submissiOn,
or opposing it, is not proof that one
is wet. Conditions must be met and
the best way to improve them is Of
tentimes open to debate.

The tariff is one of the greatest
issues of this campaign, according to
Myron T. Herick, former Ambassador
to France. "In all the manufacture
ing states employers and employees
are asking the same question: What
will happen to us if the war ends
before the Underwood bill is revis-
ed?" says Mr.. Herrick, and he adds,
"The same question is being asked
by the farmers in every agricultural
community. They have not forgot
ten what the Underwood bill did to
the prices of their products before
the war created the present extraor-
binary demand, and they have no de-
sire to see a return of those prices.
In Ohio, the skilled workmen keen
ly recall the hard times that follow
ed the passage of the Underwood
bill. Why, my own city of Cleve-
land had to raise 100000 to pro-
vide work for men who were thrown
out of employment, in order to save
them from bread-lines and soup
kitchens. The end of the European
war will subject the financial and
Industrial interests of this country
to a severe strain which will be felt
by every business man and woman
who votes in this election. Right
now, although the countries from
which we chiefly import are cut off
by the war, our imports are the larg-
est they have ever been in the his
tory of the country. At the present
rate, our imports for the present
year will exceed those Of any re-
cent year by $5,000,000."
