IOWA OPINION AND NOTES,

Nevertheless, the verdict stands
Sioux City faces the world as being
the one city thus far in the United
States which welcomes with an open
hand and an address Of welcome by

known as anarchists and bolshevists."

'The backbone of the opposition to

there were occasional cases Of women
opposing suffrage who were not align

By T. T. MAxEY

IN 184a Henry Shaw. citizen Of
l St. Louis, lover of nature and Of
flowers in particular, built large
country residence near the city limits.
He surrounded it with flowers and
plants Of every known variety. When
he died in 1899, his will provided for
a board of trustees to manage the
garden and left sufficient funds to
support it. This wonderful floral
park, said to be the largest in the
world, was thus preserved for the
education, admiration and enjoyment
Of all.
1t contains a collection embracing
$50 species Of palms; varied collec-
ton of tropical and Sub-tropical
plants; a collection Of the 80 known
species of cycads; wonderful assort-
ment Of plants which grow best under
desert conditions; numerous species
If ferns and allied plants; great
array Of plants Of great economic
value and displays of plants that feed
on insects; species Of the pineapple
and it's relatives; numerous snowy,
towering plants, while in the private
orchid house a representative Of each
Of the 800 species Of this beautiful
flower is to be found.
The outdoor collection includes
water garden, several hundred vari-
cites Of roses, numerous species OF
herblike plants, a rare pansy display,
variety of economic plants and trees
and shrubs, native to North America
and grouped in families. All told,
about eleven thousand species of
plants are growing in this garden.
The body of Mr.. Shaw reposes in
handsome mausoleum within the
grounds.

given a preliminary hearing before

terday on a charge of breaking into
the mail boxes in the Globe postoffice.
The youth was held to answer to the

of $3.50. u. S. Commissioner Hecht-
man gave the boys father permission
to send him to training school, but
the lad was warned that if at any fu-
ture time he conducted himself in a
manner not in accordance with the law
he would be brought back to this city
to answer to the federal court on the
charge filed against him. The COM
plant against Loyal was made by a
special postoffice inspector As near
ly as can be ascertained all of the
mail opened by the boy was for the
Globe Light and Power Company, the

Hickman himself. The boy stated he
had not found any money in the en-
velopes and that his reason for TAX
ing the mail was because he had not
gotten any mail of his own.

DRIVING BUSINESS AWAY.

nj WSPAPER dispatches recently carried a
~ story of prominent moving picture actress
flying over New York, and the statement
that her managers carried 100000 insurance on
her life during the flight.
The point that interests American business is
that American insurance companies were not
ready short notice to carry Aerial accident In
surance, hence the matter was arranged by cable
without delay, through Lloyds, the famous English
company.
America today needs one hundred more insur-
ance companies but there is no chance of getting
them for the simple reason that we have so many
restrictive laws here that it is almost impossible
to start a new company and capital cannot be in
terested.
England is much more liberal and encourages
the insurance industry The only kind of regula-
ton which should apply to insurance companies is
such as will keep them financially sound for the
protection of the insured. Aside from this they
should be encouraged to expand in order to handle
American business.
Competition and experience will take care of
the rate question.
Cases similar to this one occur every day on
account of American companies being tied hand and
foot with regulations which prevent them from
meeting conditions hurriedly.

gained from what they have observed in the last

It has not been particularly healthy environ

particularly healthy now. Many of the daily oc-
currences in France are not of the kind that we
would want our growing children to witness: we
would not select these and sounds as fertile
breeding ground for the instincts which we want
our children to cultivate. 1t has been land OF
poverty and smoldeing hatreds-of social and In
dustrial unrest
Here is fairly sound reason-if we can think
of no other-for preserving in this country such
conditions as will not twist the pliabe minds OF the
rising generation the wrong way. There IS ten
dency just now for everybody to declare that he is
being robbed by somebody ese-or everybody else
And no doubt there are many who have real grleV-

ances are incapable of orderly adjustment Settle
ment by violence automatically creates tyranny
and that is what the constitution of this country
was framed to prevent.
Bookeepers will show what murderers cannot
demonstrate the gross profit OF all enter
prises are-what the net profits-how much revenue
can be devoted to wages, and still leave enough to
provide against commercial hazards, to offset
losses to expand into new fields. It is matter of
arithmetic-not assassination.
