THE IOWA WAY.


Many people in other sections of the
country do not seem to have fathomed
the Iowa way. They look over our fence
and they note everybody quietly and
ousily at work. They dc not see Iowans
tearing their hair and splitting their
threats with all sorts Of yells and cut
ting all sorts of fantastic capers, and
they arrive at the conclusion that Iowa
is not awakened. Because they have
come to the conclusion that patriotism
consists mainly of speeches and pa
rades and cheering and red fire
Perhaps some, of these people never
heard OF the First Iowa regiment back
in the early days Of the civil war. They
were fellows who made little noise
They were the first troops from Iowa
to respond to President Lincoln,s call
Tor $4,000 volunteers to serve ninety
days and went into battle at Wilson
Creek in Missouri, after their time Of
enlistment had expired. Not man of
them refused, and they proved magnif-
tcent soldiers. That is the Iowa way.

DR.. Matthey is onesof the men in

not imagine for moment that the
kaiser does not know Of these men.
Dr. Matthey spent q. year or two in
Germany in relief work. but he did
more. He preached the gospel OF
loyalty to Germany. by the German
Americans in this country. We have
long known of him and we have felt
sure he was in the employ OF Ger
many. Now we know 1t. OF Fred
Vollmer we know less, but he. aided
this blathefskite Wallace in his trea.
sonable propaganda.
But Davenport like Russia is coming
back. Davenport will come back into
America again, and ultimately into
Iowa. For years. we talked "of the
State Of Scott" but Davenport will
come back. Davenport has great
many more loyal people than diAloyal
ones, and there will be more of them
to become loyal.

EXAMPLE OF BRUTAL FATHERS
TDuhuoue Times -Journal1


Sometimes we feel that the treat
ment of children by brutal fathers and
neglectful mothers is getting less. And
then we hear of case that destroys
our hopes. Not far from Dubuque there
recently occurred an illustration of the
brutal father. This one made his youth
full son work hard in the fields. One
day the boy met with an accident,
breaking his arm in two places. Reluct-
antly the father sent for doctor who
treated the boy by putting his arm in
splints. The doctors treatment would
take some time to heal the injury. So
the father who wanted him to go back
to work., took the splints from him
and applied some liniment that had
the effect of separating the breaks and
swelling the arm. A doctor was again
called and found the boy in danger
Gus condition
This brutal farmer had more regard
for the cheap running Of his farm than
he has for his son. 1t is a pity that
brutes like him are not locked up.

FLOCKING TO CHICAGO BY
THOUSANDS IN ONE DAY

Advices from Chicago say that
more than $500 from Georgia, Ala
bama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Ten
nessesse arrived in that city in three
days last week. Those responsible
for the influx say that Chicago's col
ored population will have been in
creased by 10000 by April /, and
possibly by $4,000 before September
LIST.
Labor agencies, stockyards inter
ests and Chicago negroes are respon-
sible for the flow of Southern colored
men to Chicago. They all call at
tention to the fact that immigration
from Europe, whence Chicago has
drawn its labor supply for many
years, is cut off. Many stockyards
laborers have gone to work in the
munitions factories because of the
high wages offered, and some have
gone back to Europe to fight.
The stockyards firms are said to
guarantee lodging and food for one
week to Southern negroes.

These figures are contained in a

physicians appointed by him to in

conditions to which the colored peo-

the conditions.

THE SUN is COOLING OFF,
SAYS LONDON SCIENTIST
Earths Heater to Be Stone Cold in
100000 Years, He Tells Us.

It wiss be warm next summer, not
withstanding the fact that the sun is
steadily cooling off. The great heat
radiator is already old and past its
prime of life. In 100000 years
it will be stone cold-dead, in fact.
So declared Joseph McCabe in a let
ter before the Pittsburgh Academy
of Science and Art.
He also told his audience that any
unusual disturbance throwing the
earth off it's balance would mean OBJ
livion for all living things that inhab-
it it. If the earth should deviate in
the slightest degree from it's accus-
toned pathway as it revolves around
the sun it would be"all up" with this
world, he said.
He quoted the audience, however,
by declaring that if such a calamity
should occur all will have plenty of
time to settle their affairs in America,
but their affairs in some other coun-
tries might have to be cancelled, he
ventured to predict.
