THE KENDALL KENYON STATEMENT

Mr.. Kendall. republican candidate
for governor of Iowa. has stated pub
licly that he is not a candidate for
the U. s. senate.
The statement was brought out
by the insistent suggestion from
newspapers and other sources that
Kendall had a calculating eye on
kenyon's place, an insistence which
seems to have had its foundation in a
hope to arouse suspicion and create
dissension between republicans OF
the Kendall Kenyon stripe and was
probably conceived by members OF
the ancient tong OF politicians who
have hopes Of renewed power.
However it is and should be un-
necessary for any man TO mortgage
any possible future candidacy bs
public statement that he Is not and
will not be candidate for any Of
flee. There is no doubt that Mr.. Ken
dali means Just what he says and that
he had no such candidacy. in mind.
Leaving his particular case out OF the
discussion any reputable citizen OF
Iowa has right to aspire to any Of
fee in the gift OF the voters and none
from pathmaster to president has any
mortgage upon Office however eff
Clent and valuable he may be. There
arc no gates at the entrance to the
paths OF political glory. The bars are
at the terminal and. the voters are the
gatekeepers.
The Kendall Kenyon canard was
circulated for purpose. There was
nothing to it. With four years of the
6overnorship ahead of Kendall and
five years of the senatorship ahead
Of Kenyon the story was ridiculous
on the face of it.
Nevertheless, there Is no reason to
be given why Kendall or any other
should not stand for the senatorship
before the Iowa primaries and no
good reason why any person should
be asked or prefer a pledge four
years in advance that he will not
oppose any other man for any office
within the bestowal OF the voters of
Iowa

a brakeman on train out of
Storm Lake, In discussing the slA
hundred million dollar wago award,
made the statement that 1t is the
poor people that ride the trains. In
almost the same voice he declared
that the vase award was getting the
money from the capitalists. The poor
man has long ago learned that no
one gets much from the real capital
list. Admitting that the rail men were
Justified in asking for the increase,
the fact remains that the capitalists
will not foot the bill. Labor has been
gaining no victories over capital, but
capital and labor have been draining
the pockets OF Mr.. Average Citizen
for some time. AS the brakeman said.
II passenger rates are raised the poor
man will carry the burden, and the
rich man will ride in his limousine.
II freight rates are raised the maru-
facturer Will add enough to pay the
increased rate. and little in addi-
ton to stick into his own pocket.
The public learned long ago that la
Dor had taken nothing from capital,
and the union men themselves will
soon learn 1t. In fact theySw will, help
pay the bill. So why continue to coll
1T a victory Of labor over capital. It is
simply another burden for the pub
lie to bear as has been the case and
will continue to be the case in all
strikes

FAMILY TREES.

dubuque Telegraph Herald.1
An old man, who had amassed a
fair share Of this worlds goods, spent
some time in collecting history of
his family. He compiled rather large
volume, and then had only eight
copies of it printed, giving one to
eacr of his seven children-four sons
and three daughters-and keeping
one himself.
It was a remarkable document and
a somewhat depressing one. The re-
cord showed that a great-uncle had
absconded while executor of an es-
tate, a cousin had killed a man while
on a drunken spree. another cousin
had eloped with married woman,
while brother-in law had died while
under indictment for forgery. The
good records of members of the fam
lily were set down along with the bad.
Nothing was concealed Or apologized
for, and while there was more good
than bad In the record as a whole, it
was bad enough.
His explanation was: my children
were getting foolish notions into theiS
heads. They were beginning to think
themselves better than other people.
and wanted to show them that they
were wrong. I wanted to show them
that a person can be only what he
makes himself, and no better. Pride
OF ancestry Is all right, In way, but
pride of personal conduct is a much
better thing"
Much good might be accomplished
1t other men would compile their
family histories and print them-for
private circulation.

poor" MEN AND OFFICE.

And speaking of money in our
elections, has it ever occurred to you
that some way ought to be devised to
make 1t possible for a poor man to
run for office? In Iowa we have
enough caucuses, conventions, pri-
maries and elections in one year to do
for lifetime, yet the people some
way do not select they only indorse
or reject-their candidates. The poll
ticians still have grip on things.
We do not know just how to rectify
the evil but that it is an evn all fair
minded men, who are studying the
question, will admit--Spencer News-
Herald. 1
The nominee Of the republican par
ty for governor spent less than $4,000
In his campaign while others spent
sums ranging from $4,000 to $35, 900.
Setting the question of what Mr..
Kendall may or may not have been
able to do financially the fact re-
mains that the selected candidate
spent a very small sum compared 70
r
the population figures Of the state
and the amounts expended by his OPP
Donentu for the nomination. His was
a poor mans canvass. It won.
Now this dream Of candidates
sought out and brought out ''by the
people" is pure pipe. The best the
public can do is to select from candi-
dates brought out by their support
es or who bring out their own can
didacies. Naturally, the Spencer pa
per does not know how to rectify tho
evil. The mistake Is in assuming that
It Is an evil On the contrary It Is the
only way that popular approval may
be asked and given to candidates.
Tho poor man may run for office
In Iowa II he chooses. It ia scarcely
logical to assume that q man VINO
can not afford to spend between
$4,000 and $1,000 in a canvass for the

unfit to be trusted with such
great and complicated interests.
