One hundred years ago the first labor I'M
ions in Philadelphia we're demanding free
schools, while Special Privilege fought the
idea as dangerous socialism, saying it would
be confscation of property to tax the rich
man to pay for the education of the children
of the poor man. We have progressed since
that time, and we intend to progress some
more for the benefit of the common people.

gallant steed, looked down with sv-
preme contempt upon the wayfarers
who travelled on foot. If they did not
give him all the road. he simply rode
over them. The traveller who rode in
his coach looked down with the same
contempt upon all Professionalism
in the times when the coach was the
only mode of travel for the nobility
and the rich.
But the insolence of the knights
and the noble" traveller of those
days long gone by, is again repro
duced in the twentieth century, by
the fellows who own automobiles, and
believes that the road belongs to
him., and that all must give way to
him. To be sure, there are many
careful and considerate drivers, but
there are many of the other kind,
and as ever the good suffer for the
sins of the bad.

affirmed what everybody must re-
cognize as the right, it is to be hop

HOLD YOUR SIDE OF THE ROAD.
Whether Afoot or Otherwise, You
Are Entitled to Half.

1t is strange that the supreme
court Of Iowa should have been call
ed upon to define and declare who
owns the roads of the state. That is
something that appears clear enough
to all. At least so far as the theory
is concerned.
The supreme court holds that
coasting parties, whether composed
of children or older persons, may
use the state highways ami know
that they are entitled to as much OF
the roadway as any motor or horse
drawn vehicle. The case came UP
from Potatwattamie county. And the
young lady who had been run down
was given heavy damages.
That may help some. There is
something recalling days of old in
the way some people claim tie road
today. The knight enclosed in his

Wisdom Of Solomon.

In the proverbs of Solomon there
is this bit of wisdom: Though thou
shouldst bray fool in a mortar among
wheat with a pestle, yet will not his
foolishness depart from him." More
than two thousand years of world expe-
rience sustains the accuracy of the
Biblical proverb. Braying the fool in
a mortar may not cure him. but it is
sometimes the only way of Kidding the
community Of pernicious fools intent
upon spreading the contagion of their
own folly.
