Bible Referenee 70 the Auto.

Quincy Herald: The bright young
wife OF one OF Quincy's leading pro-
fessional men has asked The Herald
If 1t knows where the earliest refer
ence is made to the automobile and,
having received a negative answer,
says 1t is in the bible. She is quite
certain that the first reference to the
machine was made by Nahum. Nahum
was one Of the twelve minor prophets
Of Israel and lived early in the sew
enth century before the dawn of the
Christian era. His contribution to
the books of the Old Testament con.
sists of three chapters of total OF
only forty-seven verses, but his style
is full Of animation, fancy and orig
inality. and at the same time clear
and rounded, and his language is
classical and in the purest Hebrew
His prophecy concerning the auto
mobile, according to The Herald's
authority, is found in the second
chapter, fourth verse, Of his book in
holy writ, and here it is:
"The chariots shall rage in the
they shall justle one against an
other in
the broad ways; they shall seem
like torches;
they shall run like the lightnings."
No modern writer could give SO
clear description of the automobile
or one so concise in the same number
of words or, for that matter, In any
added number of words.

In reply Mr.. Carrot says, "r chal-
lenge comparison of the financial and
administrative condition of Iowa with
that of any state ruled by the demo
cratic party. Every one OF the eleven
rock-ribbed democratic states has
bonded Indebtedness ranging from one

to- $23,000,O00 in Virginia. Iowa has
not a cent of bonded Indebtedness. !"
Mr.. McManus was careful not to
make his accusation specific. He
could not say just where in high
places lay the graft. nor did he spe-
officially state what the financial con.
dition of the state Is.
Iowa has been well and wisely gov
erned for years. 1t has made such
strides forward in progressive legis-
lation that many of the most impor-
tant laws Of other states and the
nation have been copied from those
Of this. It would be well for the vot-
ers at the coming election to require

Selfishness is, next to cowardice, the quail
ity most vile in man, and the greatest foe to
the development Of civiization.-B. A.
Gould
ANSWERING A CORRESPONDENT.

Letters on both sides of the prohibition ques-
ton have come to The Gate City recently in dis
agreement with an editorial on prohibition and
the prohibition party. Apparently The Gate
City peases neither set Of partisans on the
liquor question. But, as pleasing was not an
object, we won t worry about that. This news
paper s position is, in effect, that it believes in
conditional prohibition and conditional license
Neither the prohi bitionist nor the license advo-
Gates like conditions. The prohibitionist seems
TO object because The Gate City regards prohibi.
ton as a remedy in an emergency; he wants pro-
hibition, by constitutional amendment, now.
The license Lacquer doesn It want prohibition in
an emergency because he fears an emotional de-
cison on the subject. A letter carrying this idea
is printed on this page today.
But is our correspondent so sure that emo
tionalism will harm the liquor interests? If he
wants pure reason, this paper can say that if
this government and life conducted on
pure reason there would be no liquor-no need
for it. no friends for it. If government and life
were built and guided on system of reason, we
should get on without good deal of what we
use today to lend spice to existence. We might
abolish the wrist watch we might abandon the
phonograph; we would most emphatieally quit
wearing clothes.
What is needed for dealing with the liquor
problem is reasonable emotion-which, of
course doesn't exist. The Gate City can agree,
at least, with the closing paragraph of its cor
respondents letter No nation wants to be
swept off its feet by anything and today or to,
morrow or any other time is the time to ''open
the eyes of the people to the merits of proper
regulation inasmuch as national prohibition
at present is impossible.
