JAMES WATT.
1QElard Lhdln1


James Watt. the inventor OF the
steam engine and the semi annual
boiler inspection fee. has never been
recognized by posterity as he deserved.
Our Newspapers and magazines do not
pay half so much attention to him as
they do to the man who discovered the
knee high union suit and yet James
Watt put a great deal more thought in
to his invention. This teaches us that
it hardly pays to invent anything which
can not be advertised at $3.50 per agate
line. .
Before James Watt was born all OF
the steam engines were drawn by
horses or the patient. back firing mule.
AS young man Mr.. Watt did not
amount to much. H would sit before
the fire for hours and watch the .ea-
kettle discharge steam, after which he
would measure the condemns tion in a
pint cup. 1t should be remarked that
this is the same method pursued at the
present time wherever steam, heat is
sold on the meter basis. One day
young Watt decided to tie down 'he
lid OF the teakettle and see what
would happen, after which he was
taken TO hospital for the purpose OF
having the spout removed from his
neck. From such q humble and inau-
spicious beginning sprang the monster
Of steel which now hurts the fragrant
cattle car and the highly favored i'm
migrant from ocean to ocean. 49, =, =
James Watt never knew what ease
or luxury was until he was too old to
enjoy either. He was granted several
tight patents, to obtain which he
went without sleep, shaving soap and
other necessities, and as often MS one
| was issued somebody would step in and
infringe. One of his best patents was
stolen outright, and Is now used In six
lcylinder cars which collect fresh set
| of carbon every 200 miles Mr. Watt

MORE FILM ADVERTISING.

Three persons working at the Bur
chell Theater in Des Moines have
been arrested on the charge of violat-
ing an ordinance regulating plays cal
culated TO incite riot. The council
voted recently to bar production of
the Birth of a Nation in that city.
The impression received by onlook-
ing towns will be that the Des Moines
city council is following the natural
tendencies of city councils in genera!
and of Des Moines in particular and
playing politics.
Differences of opinion exist as 20 the
film under fire. Some object to it as
misleading historically and as placing
the rebellion and rehellious in a posi-
ton of martyrdom and heroic reprisal
against oppression. Racial protest is
made by negroes against the film anu
in instances has been accompanied by
unlawful interference presumably by
members of that race.
There is altogether too much fuss
Is all it is picture show Of huge
preparation. full of noise and red fire
and action and with the license that
plays and picture shows take to distort
history. 1t is builded on novel which
has caused controversy among those
who take time 10 controvert novels
and picture plays and which Is still
selling largely without interference by
city councils. The negroes have real
foundation for their objections. how
ever. the film displays the negro at his
worst without balancing his best
against it. The negro legislature is
not balanced in the film by black regi-
ulents that carried the flag up New
MA rket Heights under the eye of But
Ter. But that appears to afford no
real excuse for riot.
There is no excuse for riot over
books or plays or pictures. If the
book or the play or the picture is SUCH
that IL ought not to be shown IL should
be suppressed. not in fear OF riot by
any class but because the thing ought
to be stopped on general principles.

THE PHILIPPINES.

The proposition TO turn the Philip
pines loose is one that should be
frowned upon and defeated. Not that
the United States needs or desires the
Philippines but for the same reason
that should prevent the guardian of
child turning him out on the streets
without preparation or equipment to
care for himself Perhaps we bought
the Philippines; if so it is our elephant
and international S. P. c. A. expects
US to care for 1t.
No one with any knowledge Of the
Philippines expects or imagines that
these islands will be fit for independ-
ence in four years. Most Of these
who know most about it do not ex-
pect any such condition in ten times
four years. To throw them loose means
TO connive at a return to barbarism.
If the Philippines might be trans
ferred honorably to another nation
say Japan--the United States would De
we'll rid Of them. Without much doubt
Japan would do more for the Philip
pines in decade than we will be either
able or willing 20 do in half century.
There can be no assimilation Of Ffli-
pinos by Americans. On the other hano
the colored Japs and co!ored Filipinos
would tlux naturally into an almaga =
ton of citizenship; Jap energy and
thrift would pour into the Islands and
in all proba oility bring similar order
and thrift. Without doubt the Japs
would govern the F'ilipinos. but the
Philippines need government.
However, Philippine independence Is
not the way out Of our bad bargain
if it actually is a bad bargain. 1t would
De cruel and shameful for the United
States 10 cast off the Philippines with
a word leaving the Islands to a rever-
sion 10 conditions perhaps even worse
than those obtaining under Spanish
rule We have a responsibility that Is
not 10 be dismissed. Neither shall we
take pride in pulling down the Ameri-
can flag from over any place where l,

Of our government.
We shall have 10 do the best we can

cossoN FOR GOVERNOR.

he
The Star Clipper seldom feels con-
strained to favor editorially any can
didate for office before the primary
election. We are for the ticket in the
campaign that follows, but prefer to
give all the candidates before the pri-
mary equal treatment and not attempt
to influence anyone in favor of any
candidate But we feel that the nomi-
nation Of a candidate for governor this
year Is so important the party should
give it more than ordinary considera-
ton. The democrats in nominating
e. L. Meredith have played a strong
card. He is a man mp with the times,
thoroughly progressive, man who
does things, man Of great wealth and
willing to spend no small sum in the
campaign. He is strong personally
and represents the progressive element
Of his party. We believe. there is one
republican candidate who can beat
him without question, and that one is
George Cosson. There aresthree others
in the field-Allen, Harding and
Kuehnle. It Is possible these three are
In some respects as able as Cosson.
They may be as popular att home.
They may be men of equal character.
But none Of them can poll the vote
that Cosson can, and none of them in
our opinion is equipped to make any
better executive. Cosson has been
tried and not found wanting. Harding
is the candidate Of the vets. He has
always been on the wet side since
entering public life. This was evil
denced by his committee appointments
in the senate while lieutenant gov
ernor. It is evidenced today by his fol-
lowing. You viii find every liquor
man in Davenport. Rock Island. Sioux
City, etc, boosting Harding. This is
no year for republicans to run LIQUOR
men for any office. That day Is past.
The democrats have quit it. Harding
is not In sympathy with the progress
sive element in the matter OF good
roads He is a reactionary along sew

The First Year Voter.
Uncle joe Cannon told the Five
O'Clock clubbers the other evening that
1T took the United States census bureau
two months to answer a question he
asked. This was the question:
How many Of the voters who cast
their ballots for MCKINLEY and Bryan
in 1896 are now living? sos
The answer: Only forty nine out OF
every 100. That means that one-haH
the voters pass out every twenty-years,
This fact Is well to keep In mind, be-
cause remarks like this are often
heard: Remember that 6,000.000 men
voted for Bryan and free silver
: But former Speaker Cannons quest
fer facts shows that only 3,000,CGo OF
the 5000. 900 are here to vote at the
next presidential election. Indeed. the
youths who will cast their firsr presi-s
Dental ballots in November will great.

Before James Watt died he was Of
fered a haronetcy, but decided that ne
would rather be an LID. He had met
several baronets and was not inn
pressed by their intellectual processes
so that 1t choked him. He died In 1919

ues, one Of which stands in an erect
and thoughtful attitude in Westminster
Abbey. He left large estate with q
