Harding has much broader basis
than the fact that he is able to obtain

Doubtless the republican platform.

two years ago, will be for prohibition

Tribune. and watch w. Lloyd Hard

Some of the pessimists have al
ready commenced to worry about the
corn crop. saying that the stalks will
be so high the huskers can not reach
the ears when picking time comes"
asserts the Perry Chief.
The Davenport Democrat imagines
there would be chuckle in certain
circles. one can easily imagine, if Cap
tain Koenig were to take on an Ameri-
can citizen for the trip home on the
Deutschland"
"As the result Of two weeks service
on the state board of parole, F. F. Fa-
Vile OF Storm Lake, Iowa, might be
induced to submit some inner circle
confessions IN story FORM" suggests
the Sioux City Tribune. "If Mr.. Fa-
vile thought the paroIing Of convicts
was carried out with method and sys-
tenn he must have suffered a shock.
Personal pull is the greater part of the
applied science in this work." asserts
the Tribune.
Authorities in many Iowa cities are
up against one Of the hardest prob
lens in the enforcement of prohibition
they have faced since the old DAYS
between the enactment Of the law in
1856 to the adoption Of the rnulct law
IN 1884" says the Valley Junction Elk
press.
To many observers a query arises

make good to all the elements who are
lined up in his camp" remarks the

had left managed to shake himself
loose and breathe in a free, nom
alcoholic manner. There is no higher
quality Of sand than that shown by
the wife who puts up with booze
fighting husband, year after year, and
by her patience and tact pulls him out
on dry land.
Real sand never has to be reinforced

GLIDE ON GUM.
lSioux City Tribune.I

Here's a chance for some genius 20
get busy. The amount of chewing
gum used in Sioux City each year
would resurface every street and alley.
All the inventor needs to do is to de-
wise a method Of collecting the gum
wads, evolve mixture that will
harden after being spread, and his
fortune is made.

The Cedar Rapids Republican says:
Who Is Garst!" Well. Mr.. Garst is
citizen of Iowa whose ability and in
tegrity never has been questioned He
served the state as senator, as lieu
tenant governor, as governor and as
industrial commissioner. In his
handling Of official affairs the citizens
of Iowa never accused Mr.. Garst of
being the tool Of any special interests.

WHERE SCHOOL MONEY STAYS.
fBurlinCton Hawkeye

Marshalltown is to raise $4,000 for
school purposes this year, to be collect
ed in 1917. That is not an extravagant
amount. And besides II must be borne
in mind that about every dollar that is
expended for the school system remains
in the town. More than half is ex-
pended for teachers salaries and very
little OF that money is invested in
bonds or real estate. but most of it
goes to the merchants and the landlord.
OF all the money paid by the tax payer
there is no other that remains in town
and goes into actual circulation like
the tax which is levied by the school
board.

Onion. Many Virtues.

Onions are specific for the com.
plexion. They should be boiled whole

and eaten with bread and butter and

PAWNSHOP FOLLOWS SALOON.
fCedar Ra pidc Trihupc

The passing of the saloon is putting
the business of the pawnbroker on the
blink. Instead OF sacrificing not only
their own self respect, but the COM
forts of home as well in order to salts
fy their craving for drink, those con-
frmed boozers who used to haunt the
threeball joints along First street now
use their wages to buy decent food and
clothing for themselves and families.
This fact was proved when two repre-
sentatives of the money loaned here"
class appeared before the city council,
and asked for reduction in their an
nual license. Our records will prove
that our business has fallen off over
one-half since the saloons closed" said
one Of them.

FIGHT MEXICO WITH FLOUR.

Davenport Democrat and Leader.J
why not fight Mexico with sacks Of
flour" asks a Davenporter who sees
no reason why he or his neighbor
should desire the death, either from
starvation or bullet, Of the average
Mexican.
I'VE are not as bad as they think we
are" he asserts. And he thinks that Il
a regiment Of Americans divided into
companies Of three or four persons
each, should go into Mexico for the
purpose of relieving the suffering and
starvation there, we should capture the
country lots sooner than we will ever
do it with cannon and shrapnel.
Women and children are standing in
line in many places in Mexico to get
their small portion Of corn which, after
it is crushed, is made into tortillas, the
sort Of fried pancake that Is the chief
food standby Of the Mexican people.
There Is a serious food shortage bound
soon to affect the army and already
affecting the civilian population OF
Mexico.
We are sending a great deal OF
money and large quantities Of food to
European countries. and leaving our
neighbours here at home to starve to
death. A commandment Of Mexico with
sacks Of flour might be the cheapest

THE GuARDSMEN'S FAMILIES.
[Burlington HaWkeye.1

Everywhere in the towns that have
military companies, the citizens are
moving in some way or other to take
care Of the families that were deprived
of the bread-winner. when the soldiers
were called out Everywhere there Is
perfect confidence that the work will
be done we'll, and that all will receive
proper care and support, who require
1t. After all, however, II seems that
the government which demands the
service Of these men and does not
award them reasonable pay, ought to
look after those who are left behind.
In all likelihood, congress will recog-
nize the fact by and by, that the gov
eminent uoght to do something along
these lines. In the mean time, how
ever, the dependents will be properly
cared for by the respective commune

WOMEN AT SALACLOUS TRIALS.
[Cedar Rapids Republican,


The women of Waukegan have been
much paraded because Of their eager
ness to listen to the nasty details Of
the trial that has been going on in that
place. Even the cartoonists have pic
tured them sitting with strained necks
listening to the salacious evidence, evil
dence Of such nature that it made
many Of them blush while they heard
It and which no newspaper, altho
yellow, has dared to print But women
are not much different from men in
that respect. Men are eager enough to
inhale filth Of the same kind. They do
snhale all they can find. If they were
not in Waukegan to get it, it may be
due to the fact that they had work to
do, while the women were able to close
up their houses for the day and listen
to the evidence The only thing that
one can say on the matter is that he is
sorry that the women were not strong
enough to be better than the men, that
is strong enough TO stay away and alb
hor such details.

IOWA LAND PRICES.
burlington Hawkeye.l

A farm of ninety-two acres near
Arlington has changed hands. the con-
sideration being 1865 per acre. 1t seems
but yesterday that many deemed it un-
beiievable that the best Iowa land
should ever bring 800 per acre. They
saw the $500 mark reached and passed.
and while they still find 1t hard to be-
lieve they are noting the fact that
here and there in Iowa the $500 mark Is
being reached and passed, and they
are wondering now, If 1t will last, and
when and where it is going to stop. II
must appear odd to a man who farmed
in Iowa generation ago to see land
selling al ten times what ii was con-
sidered worth at that time, and yet
there is nothing strange about it. The
Iowa land is selling today for less than
1t is worth, far less than it is worth
when the value Of many OF the pro-
ducts of the farm Is taken into con-
sideration. OF course, $500 land would
not go well with 15-cent corn.

RAISING AN ISSUE.
IOscAnla Darnncrat ]

81
The real issue in the coming cam
paign for the governorship of Iowa
between Meredith and Harding will ba
the wet and dry issue. Harding Is the
candidate Of the vets; the results OF
the last primary show this. He has
such perfect understanding with the
vets that he could not drive their sup
port from him with shotgun. AS a
result. you may now rest assured that
he will now try and secure the support
Of the dry republicans by stating that
he is as dry as Sahara desert. Hard
ing is also trying to make a grand
stand play by stating that he Is in
favor Of lowering the taxes; but be
does not suggest any program. II
Harding, is elected and Is allowed to
return the saloon TO Iowa, he will levy
a terrible tax on the lives Of the women
and children of the state whose hus-
bands and fathers pass their wages
over the open bar, as a tax to the liq-
uor interests. The coming campaign
will not be partisan affair; 1t will be
a campaign between common decency
and special. privilege
FAR REACHING SERVICES"
[Sioux City Tribune.]
1t so happens that the morning Sioux
City paper did not acquire critical no
tons toward 'Des Moines political
methods" until impressed with the
thought that this line of attack would
aid its favored candidate for the gov
ernorship-his opponent being Des
Moines man. When the capitol park
appropriation was something Of an is
sue two years ago, the Sioux City
morning paper tut-tutted such criti-
cisms; now it Is frankly caustic about
that affair. Also, it is a new situation
for the Sioux City morning paper to in
innate that other cities of the state
have latent and undeveloped rights in
the matter Of appropriations for agri-
cultural fairs. The morning papers
filings at its former cronles is further
proof Of the far reaching services de-
manded, and secured by Candidate
Harding.

STADIUM, CAMBRIDGE, Mass,
May 26.-The trial events OF the meet
OF the intercollegiate amateur ath-
ietic association OF America were
started today in bright sunshiny
weather The athletes have gather,
ed from all the leading colleges in the
country to compete.
Trial heats In the 100 yard dash,
the 220. the high and low hurdles,
the half mile and the quarter, will be
run of this afternoon, while qualify
ing rounds were held in the Jumps,
the pole vault and the weight events.
The meet this year. the fortieth In
the associations history, promises to
surpass any gathering in the past.
There have been years when greater
individual stars came to the inter
collegiates, but never such a wealth
of material scattered throughout the
different events. No less than six
OF the athletes competing today have
lowered worlds figures, either in
practice or competition, while ten are
credited with being capable of lower
ing present records.
BY today's trials, the field will be
reduced to twelve men in the dashes.
ten men IN the. hurdles and ten in the
quarter and half mile runs, respect

only six men are left.
Jack Monkeys Cornell team Is
big favorite, for the Ithacans' super
ior1ty in the distance runs and the
field events and the fact that fully
thirty-five men will be entered, makes
it hard to pick a team to beat them.
The Pacific coast athletes are in the
best Of condition and are certain to
cut largely into the scoring column.

lief that Cornell will win, predicted

KANSAS CITY, MO-, May Io.-An
old time baseball hero remounted the
pedestal Of fame Saturday afternoon,
when Billy Sunday sent smashing
drive into right field, bringing in
two runs and starting batting rally
which won the Mercy hospital bene-
fit game for the Missouri side Rotar-
ians. The Kansas side club had to
be satisfied with the short end of a
ii to 10 score.
The setting was the one which has
never been improved on for dra-
iNmatic climax in basebaIl-two down.
the bases full and pinch hitter at
the bat.
It may have been that Johnny
King was a bit generous in his de-
cisions in filling the bases, but there
was certainly no funny business on
Billy Sundays part.
He had been dancing around the
players pit, netting the bats and let
ting no play escape him.
In as a Pinch Hitter.
'You go in and bat for me, Billy"
said George Siedhoff, captain of the
Missouri side team.
Sunday gave a pleased smile, grab
Der UP the bat he had selected pre-
viously, and started for the plate
with quick strides.
Then the bleachers erupted. In
the unmistakable way that bleachers
have always done it, they pleaded for
a hit
Sunday flashed back a grin, step
ped to the right side of the plate,
hunched his trousers, pulled down
his cap, spit on his hands and
squared himself to meet the ball.
The first one was wide OF the
p. tie.
Ball one," rasped the umpire.
AS the next ball left the pitchers
hand, Sunday coiled and uncoiled
dollar and a half's worth of horse
hide, string and rubber sized
straight and low past the second
baseman, on past the right fielder
who dived for it, and rolled towards
the fence.
Sunday meantime was giving an
exhibition Of the base running that
once made him famous. Down to
first he sprinted with the spring and
speed of %, rather than SO. He
made it safely to second while two
runs came in and tied the score.
The sawdust trail never saw the
excitement OF that moment
Hats and banners went aloft. The
printed copies of the prepared yells
were thrown up to meet them, for
the noise was OF the spontaneous
variety that needs no leader.
Then He stole Third.
Dancing off second base as he did
when a member of Pop Anson's
White Sox more than twenty years
ago, Billy watched for his chance
and shot down to third. It was a
beautiful steal and his speed made
it necessary for him to slide to make
1t.
Almost the entire Sunday party
was at the game Bob Matthews,
secretary to Sunday, wrecked the
plans of the Pathe Weekly to film
the ball player-evangelist. A motion
picture camera was set up when Sun
day arrived, but it was Immediately
ordered away.
"Mr. Sunday has repeatedly re.
fused thousands OF dollars to pose
for the MOVIES" Matthews explained
"He does not believe in commercial
izing himself He says his mission
Is merely to preach the gospel"
