! Cedar Rapids Republican: Inc
| thing for senators and for all men,
whether in direct voting position OF
lotherwise, is to stand by the govern
ment in what is deemed by majority
to be the best and the most reasonable
thing to be done, Technicaiities
should be brushed aside in emersen-
cies and this nation should speak as
one man. In that lies the half OF a
nations prestige and power.
Iowa Is the only state which failed Ut
terly, the only state in which both sen
'ators fell by the wayside when the
cry was for united front, soma
backing for the president In his ard
|uous and often heart breaking respon-
sibilities and duties. Iowa deserved
no such odium and it wants the people
Of the nation to realize that Iowa is
not back Of it's own senators, but that
it feels humiliated, almost disgraced.
Marshalltown Times-Republtcan
Nobody at home would object to a
limitation of the right Of a senator to
stay on the floor and talk his own and
everybody else's head off. The senate.
however, should not howl over fill
busters while it's rules are apparently
made for filibustering purposes. Sena-
torial courtesy is fearful and wonder
full thing.
Cedar Rapids Gazette: AS friend
lof George Washington the Gazette
wishes to state that the Father OF
His Country is not to be held respon-
sible for the manner in which the ex-
ecutors brought up the family.
Burlington Hawk-Eye A short
time ago. there was much said in the
papers, or in some of the papers OF
Iowa, about the small ay and the
heavy work that fell to the lot of the
judges of the supreme and the district
courts. And the suggestion was heard
that these judges ought to have more
pay, and at the same time the number
of judges ought to be increased. In
view of the fact that there is very
large number of applicants who are
after the position on the supreme
bench, that was made vacant by the
passing of Judge Deemer, it appears
that there are few people left in the
state who know about that work anu
what it is worth, who seem to be will
ling and anxious to take the job at the
old rates.
Davenport Democrat: Charles Ed
ward Russell may be one of the lead
ing socialists of the world, but he is an
American before he is a socialist. and
he declares himself shamed and humil-
| lated by the action of one of Iowa s
senator's, who was conspicuous in the
l,hlibuster with which the session OF
the Gath congress closed.
Council Bluffs Nonpareil: 1t would
seem, also, that acres didn't raise their
potatoes to be food.
Burlington Gazette: Farm boys are
quickest to join the army, say recruit
ing men. But most OF the patriotic
noise comes from the cities.
| Sioux iCty Journal: The sixty
fourth congress lived strenuous
life and died strenuous death.

pass that Americans will have to in
vent match for the German U-boats.

We know a motorboat owner who not only
invites the government to commander his

When prices reach the point where starva-
ton is fashionable, the government may pay
some attention to the matter.

The most interesting conclusion to be drawn
from the British governments withdrawal of
its objections to the manufacture of shells for
the American navy by an English corporation
is that danger of shortage of this kind of
munitions has passed. Evidently the British
plants can turn out more armor=piercing shells
than are needed by England and her allies. In
the meantime the contracts first awarded to
Hadfiefds, Limited, and then given to Ameri-
can companies, should remain in this country.
If the change in the British governments atti-
tude makes it possible for the navy depart
ment to secure a. price reduction, so much the
to injure American munitions makers by going
abroad, for supplies that can be made at home

Ottumwa Courier: 1t may come to

If il comes to war with Germany. u
boats are about all that we will have
to fight during the continuance of the

During the current year the work

During the current year the work
accomplished on the different projects
scattered thru this district was not
so great as some anticipated because
of the war, which consumes so much
money, and the acute shortage of la
Dor. Attic so handicapped the ofici-
ais of the service here set about to ac-

money we are going to make the val
lev worth a few million dollars more.
Of course the biggest amount will be
expended on the Teton dam, but there
are two other things which we are GO

mits. The first is to build pumping
plant at Prosser, which will water
1000 acres of new desert land, and
the second to erect a like plant at
Granger. We already have about ST.

be given us by the next congress"
