those who sought a champion Of ma
tionalisation OF industry and was
willing 10 b used ~ deadly weapon
BY the Pierce element.
The reason the railroad brother
hoods are fighting Cumntns 10 plain
enough. They DO not want 10 give
up their power TO tie UP the railroads.
They prefer to let tho farmers hogs
and steers eat their heads Oft while
the railroad managers are forced to
sand bag tho public and the farmer
for moro pay for railroad operatives
Tho Cummins bill oompels arbitra-
ton without compelling the unions TO
accept the findings of the arbitsrs.
The reason why Pierce and the hired
Haines' are fighting cummins is
quite A. evident.
The guarantee OF 81 per cent 10 not
a guarantee at all. It Is a maximum
limit beyond which the interstate
commerce commission must not 20 in
fixing rates and II any more income
accrues from a rate II IL divided 90
80 with the road that earns II and the
rolling stock which the government
will leave to weaker roads in order
to get the farmers hogs to market.
Farmers should know that our rail-
roads need rolling stock. new road
beds and all kinds of construction in
order to render service. They can't
borrow money until they can show
earnings. Wages have been boosted
more than 100 per cent and corn and
hogs are up moro than 100 per cent
over pre-war figures while freight
rates have risen $3.50. II was apparent
that the roads would have to have
more income for the government in
spite OF all OF It's economies has lost
billion and two years trying to run
them. In order to put a limit on the
rise IN rates 81 per cent was placed
as a maximum. Strong roads are
kicking because they could do better.
Weak roads will not earn that much
from a rate that will earn no more
than 5h per cent for tho strong roads
and II a higher rate should be grant
ed them the business would leave
them for othar roads
It Is case Of self protection to be
considered by farmers and business
men and industrial workers as well
as industrial arrangements and by
citizens in general. An ultra radical Of
comparatively small ability and
equipment pledged to most radical
platform opposes a safe man whose
repute for wisdom and craftsmanship
Is as wide as the continent and whose
record is one Of sincere and capable
service to the state and nation and
not to any ono class. Brookhart's
platform pledges and companionshtp
in politics are dangerous. Cumnins
is safe and sane. He should be re-
turned II the state desires to retain
it's reputation for good Judgment and
sanity.

r.s.Ees SHOULD NOT BE FOOLED.

Farmers and others should not per-
NIT the outcry Of Mr.. Brookhart and
his peculiar combination Of manage
ment consisting OF ultra radical labor
leaders and Jim Pierce and Jim's
hired man to obscure the facts in the
canvass that is being made against
Senator Gu Ilns. First, Mr.. Brook
hart has always been an ultra radical
himself. He has held an obssssion TO
fight railroads. He was a progress
sive In the old days when the lines
vera drawn sharply and when we
confronted a very different situation.
His impulse has not been to regulate
but that Carthage must be destroyed.
The assault upon Cummins by
radical labor leaders and the onani-
present passion of Jim Pierce for
throatcutting seemed to offer him his
opportunity. Brookhart il not a bad
fellow. On the contrary. He has
had burning ambition. to achieve
legislative office and one that has
been denied him by those who know
him best and who consider him and
his excessive radicalism unsafe. How
many others the combination sought
before they were forced to take up
with Brookhart Is, OF course, not
available; but It is safe to say that
Brookhart was a dernier resort Of

TILE IOWA SENATORSHR.

The Brookhart calculation has two
ESSENTIAL weaknesses: first, because
the farming districts have become
very much psrmeatsd with the idea
that the continuing demands Of the
railroad brstherhoods upon the rail-
roads can b effectively met only at
the cost Of the farmers and other
shippers: and. second. because too
many of the men VINO actually work
for railroads would rnthsr have their
differences with the railroads fairly
aAtu Aieated, ~ proposed and pro-
viAsA in the CumMtns bi11, than to
require all such differences to be set
