MORE ROAD BILL NONSENSE.
waterloo Times Tribune. ]


Il Now comes Senator Chase with = bill
in the senate to reopen the road hght
again. The Chase bill would have Pro-
lessor Marston Of Ames and Dean
Raymond of Iowa, as, practically, hon
orary members of the state highway
commission, with an engineer to be To-
Gated in Des Moines and appointed by
the governor as active head OF depart
ment OF roads.
Itais but the Pitt-Johnston crowd
trying to put something over in new
form. 1t would give the governor a
political appointment and help along
the organization OF the machine ne IS
bent on building up in the state.
Whether the federal government would
recognize it as such state regulation as
would entitle the state to participate
in the federal funds for road building
is not certain, but the senator probably
intends to cover this ground as one
among many weaknesses of the Pitt
Johnston road bill was that 1t would
not allow the distribution Of federal
funds in the state. The governor has
publicly stated that he did not want
federal aid, but he. is willing perhaps.
IL he can get something thru. to accept
this aid. The governor has failed to
convince the state that 1t would suffer
damages by tie fedora! government
giving Of its funds here for highways
as it is giving them to other states.
But in the Chase bill the adminis-
tration now in defeat on roads legts-
lation. is but trying to save face"
Most any kind of a road bill will mo-"
do that will deliver a slap at the pres
ent state highway commission.
There is no sense whatever in the
progressive members of the legisla-
ture compromising in any way with the
Pitt Johnston outfit. They have tried
to run rough shod over the state and
have been defeated after exerting every
ounce of strength, political and other
wise, spent in every direction. The
humiliation should be made complete.
Unless It is, the power Of the reaction
aries in the state assembly will not be
broken; unless 1t is, the road line up
win come up to strange legislation OF
every kind. The defeat must be de-
cisive. We can get along with our
present road law for a couple Of years
when progress along right lines VIII be

a RENTING FARMERS RECORD.

What renter Of an Iowa farm has
lived longest on the same farm?
The Democrat recorded few days
ago the record Of man who had
rented and lived on the same farm
for twenty years
That isn't a record at all, say the
friends Of August Better, of Scott
county. Iowa.
Mr.. Better has rented the same farm
for thirty-four years. Evidently the
farm has prospered, az we hope Mr..
Better has, during this period, for the
farm has changed owners three or four
times during these twenty-four years,
each succeeding owner being content
to leave Mr.. Better there.
Who knows Of any one who can beat
Mr. Belter's record? We have always
maintained that Scott county has the
finest farms 10 the world, and 1t seems
we can now claim the championship
belt for the renting farmer. Any one
who takes it away from Mr.. Better
will have to step some.

Other Grains Will Have
Same Preference as Wheat
in TRANSPORTATION.
BREAKS FINAL HOUR
New Ruling Expected to In.
crease Arrival Of Supplies
at Terminals.

Chicago, Nov. 27.-Announcements
that hereafter corn and oats would
have the same preference as wheat in
the movement of railway freight led
today to sharp setback of grain
values. Corn finished heavy. IN cent
lower to u cent advance, with Janu-
airy, $1.2O% @1.2OM, and May. 1.1sh@
1.1Sss. Oats held a net gain Of n to 81
cent. The outcome for provisions
ranged from 30 decline to a rise of
72 cents.
Breaks in the price of corn took
place chiefly in the last Is minutes of
trading and seemed the direct result
OF word that the railroads had been
ordered to put all cereals on the iden-
teal basis of precedence accorded to
wheat. As such method of handling
grain is expected to cause a material
increase of arrivals at the leading prt-
mary markets, heavy selling ensued,
ana support was Withdrawn. I'm
seasonable warm moist weather had
previously tended to make corn SYM
pathize with advances in the oats
market
New high price records for the sea-
son were reached by oats before the
government notice was received that
oats like wheat would be rushed for
ward by the railroads. Declines from
top quotations of. the day however
were in rapid progress when the ses-
sion closed.
In provisions the main factor was a
lack of offerings.
