rANNENBAUM,s NEW VIEWPOINT.

A few wears ago Frank Tannenbaum was
radical strike leader in New York City. He set
the law at defiance and landed in prison. Dur
ing his sojourn there he began to read and de-
veloped passion for education. He entered
Columbia university, has won degree IN re-
markably short time and large money prize
fer an essay. He aspires to further university
work in preparation for a career as a teacher IN
college or university. He is still imbued with
ardent desire to change things, but he has new
viewpoint and here is a bit Of what he recently
said about it:
that of the things have learned is
that the world a past well as future. The
second thing is that things are not absolutely good
or absolutely bad; they either better or worse
partly good and partly bad. partly right and partly
wrong. world appears much more complex
than it did and life is much more settled see
that human associations and the threads that hold
things together more numerous and more COM
pcated and that human motives are not quite SO
l thought them
There are many bright and potentially able
minds wallowing in radical fustian these days.
And what they need is chart and compass that
education, knowledge Of facts and time and en-
erpy of thought about them bring. Tannen-
baum sees now that the present is conditioned
on the past, that it can no more safely escape
from the past by rough break than can young
completely of people and things. He is by way
OF seeing the futility Of much that he rashly be-
Ieved to be true and advisable. Here is an in
stance of what viii generally happen to the
honest, open-minded radical when he gets new
viewpoint: one that looks from facts and record
ed experience.

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

Webster City Freeman-Journal: IT
lis to be hoped every voter who Is in
sympathy with the movement of the
committee of forty-eight and kindred
spirits will vote that ticket this year
to the end that the country may know
just how strong public sentiment
ifavors their theories. Let there be
"a counting of noses.
Perry Chief: Most republicans are
iafraid Senator La Toilette will not
join some other organization.
Rolfe Arrow: Some fear the or.
ganization of third party. but SC
far as we are concerned, we say
"hop to it." Just as every well organ
lied home needs a can 20 hold the
garbage and rubbish, SO this country
needs a third party to absorb the
political offscourings.
ssbley Tribune: ~ believe it
when anybody says Dor vernon Cox is
anti.Wilson. He isn't There is nc
reason why he should be. Wilson
isn't candidate for anything, but
the record of his administration is
the political stock of his party and
the best argument for the choice OF
a democrat to be his successor. Gov.
ernor Cox knows this.
Charter Oak Times: In short, the
two great parties have selected such
men that there is no personal choice
between them. That being the case
the voter is left to select his man by
the looks Of the party behind him.
Council Bluffs Nonpareil: The com
lpleteness of the control of the ad
lministration over the party platform
this year is no where more manifest
than in the plank which commenfs
to the country the mail service pro
,vided by Mr.. Burleson.

 To overcome this lack of an element of your body that is necessary to your health, your happiness and even your success in life, weak. anaemic, nervous, run down people are advised to take Bitro- Phosphate as dispensed by Lee x Osgood and all leading drug stores in the original package.
 Speaking of people who are easily la tigued, who lack ambition, nerve and are ofttines thin, weak and sadly lacking in firm, healthy flesh, Joseph D. HaTrigan, formerly visiting specialist, North Eastern Dispensary, N. r., says:
 Patients who were apparently physical wrecks, who foolishly thought they need ed only blood tonic to enrich the blood. have come for treatment trembling and shaking, their nerve force almost exhaust ed, and in many such cases the adminis- tering of Bitro-P Phosphate has produced seemingly magical results"
 People who feel the heat of summer. tire easily, and often become irritable and depressed, will find Bitro- Phosphate an inexpensive and helpful friend Druggists report wonderful increase in the demand from men and women who are anxious to renew old-time ambition and who are making an honest effort to become vigorous and keen-minded with a power of endurance that denotes almost perfect health.
 They ask for Bitro-Phosphate because they know they need an inexpensive or ganic phosphate.
