A GLASS HOUSE RESIDENT

rev. J. Edward Kirbye, of Ply
mouth church, recently announced
mis- resignation from his pasto-ate.
The explanation we received then
was that Mr.. Kirb,e had it borne in
upon him as mission to take charge
OF the political morals Of the state
LRnd clean out all te.res from the pol
Eitical wheat. So REV. J. Ed. went
forth to hang Nate Kendall's hide on
the fence and the like OF that, Her
sing, the democratic opponent to
Kendall being q prominent member
OF Rev. J. Eds Plymouth church. 1t
now appears from IL news publica-
ton in the Des Moines Capital
that Kirbye resigned because OF diff
fioulty over too many salaries.
It came out at that meeting that
kirbye, who had secured the state
managership Of the Jewish and Ar
menian relief drives. had been draw
Ing comfortable salary" from the
managership Of 5000 month or
$4,000 a year.
Rev. Kirbye was no dollar a year
man. Not by $2,sss.
To quote the Capital:
Or. Kirbye began to draw q man
ayers salary beginning with the
month OF October, 1911. He collected
$3.50 for his services in that month,
and $500 month for November and
December. 1918, January, February,
March, April and May and the first
half Of June, 1920.
No record was discovered OF sal
aries covering the last half OF June
and tho month of July, but In Au-
gust and September he reduced his
charge against the relief fund from
5000 to 500 q month.
This reduction is made, It was
reported after meeting Of the re-
lief fund directors In which the size
OF DR.. Kirbye's salary was severely
criticised by several members.
DR.. Kirbye still is in charge Of Ar
A1AVAAcSA AOkiSL WIN ill 4oWup ttlu ilslS
stated that this work now nets him
5000 month.
OF course Kirbye drew his salary
from the church all the while he was
drawing $4,000 year from funds
contributed by the charitable who
gave with the idea that their money
was feeding starving children and
women In Armenia and binding the
wounds Of Turkish atrocities. It does
seem that this self-a,,sumed political
dry cleaner could have gotten along
on less than 5000 month while
drawing salary from his church
when little children were starving
and shelterless for want Of the
money kind hands had attempted to
reach across the sea to their relief
and salvation.
Those who spent their days and
nights in relief and war work at
their own expense, happily glad that
they might be permitted to aid.
scarcely need the reforming services
Of this person Kirbye.
The question sugges rs itself: How
much would Mr.. Kirtye feel was a
sufficient salary or .'t,onorarium" for
his services In the campaign in
which he proposes to reform Iowa
and elect a democrat ticket?
Mr.. Herring, whose labors in the
bond sales and war work generally
were strenuous and without salary"
and Kirbye who drew two salaries
and kicked because he couldn't drag
down more show In sharp contrast.

Topics Of the Times

The kind Of republicans who tried
to prevent the nomination and the
election Of Governor Harding are the
ones who brought about the nomin-
alton Of Nate Kendall for governor.
The democrats who elected Harding
FL spite of the bolt of thousands Of
indignant republicans are now boost
ing Tor Clyde Herring. Herring has
a clean record as business man
and SO has Nate Kendall as a lawyer.
What's the Harding stencil got to do
with either one of these men?

The Windmill
THE DEAR DEAD DAYS.

When we were hairy troglodites
Much trouble was before us.
The saber tooth walked round at
nights,
We feared the brontosaurus.
Foes sought us far; foes sought us
near.
Twas hard our lives to save
But yet we paid to proflteer
No rental for our cave.
When we were hairy trogIodites
We gave no thought to style,
Aesthetically we were rights
At which the moderns smile
But. oh. how very good were those,
Far days to us who knew them!
Instead of buying winter clothes,
BY gosh, we up and grew them!
When we were hairy troglodites
Our wants were plain and few.
We knew no epicure's delights,
We ate what we could chew.
But then. the question of cook
Aroused no wrathfu1 clamor,
II we saw one we wished, we took
And beaned her with hammer.

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

siderable time trying to defeat 1t.
In 1918 the women needed the sup

against them. Now Mr.. Herring
needs the support Of the women and
well, leave Il to the women" sug-

WRANGEL RECOGNIZED
 BRITAIN DISPLEASED
tBy United Press)

London, Aug. 12,-France has offici- ally notified Great Britain that rec ognition has been extended to Gen eral Baron Peter Wrangel, anti-soviet commander in south Russia, as head of a defacto government. Before re- celving official word of Frances ac- tion, Premier Lloyd George professed to disbeljeve unofficial reports. Rec ognit on of Wrangel is in violation of agreement reached with Premier Mil Ierand at Hyethe, the British premier holds.
 France extended recognition to Wrangel. it was stated, on account of his promise to assume the obligation of the former Russian empire and to establish stable government in Rus sia. The misunderstanding between France and England on his recognition today threatened to disrupt all allied efforts to bring peace between Russia and Poland or to aid Poland in the event Russia persists in a policy of aggression.
 As the internal situation has now developed, the peace of Europe may depend upon adjustment of the diplo- matic understanding between France and Britan, caused by Frances recog- nition of Wrangel, and Premier Lloyd Georges ability to handle the general strike threatened by British labor of all classes should the government at tempt to make war on Russia, An other possibility is that whatever agreement may be reached by the Poles and Bolsheviki at Minsk tomor- row will not be acceptable to Miller and and Lloyd George, and that fight ing will be continued until the pre- miers are able to negotiate peace terms satisfactory to Poland and Rus sia and also to England and France, a different accomplishment.

l},OOO IN LEAD N 'RAE ASSURED OF NOMINATION.

Special to the Log Cabin Democrat.
 Little Rock, Aug. l2.-With a pIu- rality of 13,000 over his nearest op- ponent, former Congressman Thomas C. McRae of Prescott has, beyond al, most the possibility of a doubt, won the nomination for governor of Ar kansas. Related returns today in- creased his lead by nearly 1000 over last nights totals It is believed that between 80 and 90 per cent of the total vote in the state has now been accounted for, and the possibility of later returns overturning McRae's commanding lead is thought too re- mote for consideration.
 Figures compiled at ? o'clock this afternoon give the following totals for the four leading candidates for gov ernor:
 McRae 38,75S.
 Powell, 25,745.
 Terral, 22,687.
 Floyd, 6,146.
 In all other state races the results are conceded and the following are the nominees for the contested offices:
 Chief justice, E. H. McCulloch.
 Attorney General, J. S. Utley.
 Secretary of state, Ira c. Hopper.
 State auditor, James Guy Tucker.
 Highway and land commissioner, Herbert R. Wilson.
 All of the congressman from Ar kansas, with the exception of T. H. Caraway, who was nominated for United States senator, were candi- dates for reelection and won their nominations. In the First district, from which MT. Caraway is now con- gressman, the nomination was won by W. J. Driver.
