He said in part: "This nation began with the belief that its landed possessions were illimit able and capable of supporting all the people who might care to make our ^country their home but already the limit of unsettled land is in sight, and indeed but little land fitted for agricul ture now remains unoccupied save what can be reclaimed by irrigation and drainage. We began with an iin approactied heritage of forests more than half of the timber is gone. We began with coal fields more extensive than those of any other nation and •with iron ores regarded as inexhausti ble, and many experts now declare that the end of both iron and coal is lU sight.

Finally, we began with soils of unexampled fer tility and we have so impoverished them by injudicious use and by fail ing to check erosion that their crop producing power is diminishing instead of increasing. In a word, we 'have thoughtlessly, and to a large degree unnecessarily, diminished the re sources upon which not only our pros perity but the prosperity of our chil dren must always depend. Lavish Use of Resources. "We have become great because of the lavish use of our resources, and we have just reason to be proud or' our growth. But the time has come to in quire seriously what will happen when our forests are gone, when the coal, the iron, the oil, and the gas are ex hausted, when the soils shall have been still further impoverished and washed into the streams, polluting the rivers, denuding the fields and ob structing navigation. These questions do not relate only to the next century or to the next generation. It is time for us now as a nation to exercise the same reasonable foresight in dealing with our great natural resources that would be shown by any prudent man in conserving and wisely using the property which contains the assurance of well-being for himself and his chili dren.

MEDICAL LAWS ATTACKED. President of Homeopathist Society Flays State Examination. Des Moines, May 13.—On his ad dress at the opening of the thirty ninth annual convention of the Hahne mann Medical Association of Iowa, 'President T. F. H. Spreng launched into a general condemnation of the state medical laws, which, lie declared, -place every stumbling block in the path of the young physician. Alio scoring by the officer of the society and their methods of trying to sup press homeopathy were excoriated. Dr. Spreng suggested several remedies for the license evil and resolutions may be adopted by the society and used as a weapon in forcing legislation. a' fny 200 he The 3outh Carolina, was appointed. session ended at noon, when the presi dent and vice president gave an in formal reception to those who had at ~i'\ tended the maeting.

Dr. Royal's report showed a great gain in the financial standing of the society, while Dr. Huntoon's paper showed success of the Iowa Homeopathic Journal, the official organ of the as- sociation, which was published recent ly for the first time. "There is no evil with which we have to contend like that of the state medi cal laws," said Dr. Spreng in speaking of the "license" evil.

It is a reflection upon the college from which they graduated and virtually means that the centers of medical education cannot be relied upon to turn out the finished product. Young doctors are TIOW forced to go to all kinds of trou ble to pass examinations. I can't see why it is that physicians should not be treated as fairly as lawyers and others. A man can graduate from the Harvard law school and enter the bar in any state. Were he the graduate of an eastern .school of medicine, he would be forced to stand pxamination. "One cannot but deplore the manner in which the allopaths 'have tried in Several Towns in Eastern Neb raska Damaged By Very Severe Winds HITS LOUISVILLE AND RICHLAND College Buildings at Bellevue Dam aged and Barracks at Fort Crook Partially Wrecked—Half the Town of Louisville Wrecked—Severe Storms In Iowa Omaha, May 13.—The weather bu reau has issued a warning declaring that conditions in eastern Nebraska this morning are exactly similar to those existing yesterday just before the tornado, and that further cyclonic dis turbances may be expected this after noon or tonight. Reports which came in slowly to day from the tornado stricken dis trict south of this city added three victims to the list of dead. The mone tary damage at $500,000. The list of injured, some of whom are fa.tally hurt, will reach at least fifty. Nearly every one of the five towns in the path of the storm, Bellevue, Pappillion, Richfield, Meadows and Louisville, were badly wrecked and the village at Fort Crook and the post at ithat point suffered heavy damage. Omaha, Neb.. May 13.—Fourteen per sons are known to have been killed and a score injured by a tornado which swept over the northern part of Sarpy county at 5 o'clock yesterday after noon. The storm, which gained velocity on its way south, started in Omaha about 4:SO. At Bellevue the college buildings were damaged to the extent of prob ably $50,000, and several persons were injured, none fatally. The storm then moved on to Louisville, Richfield and Springfield, where the principal dam age and loss of life occurred. The casualty list, so far as known, is as follows: 1 Teith, Martin. Teith, James. Hester, Mrs. Franit, near iiouisvple. Leader, Charles, near Richfield. Two unknown at Louisville village. Seven persons, names unknown, in a sandpit near Louisville. Martin, Charles, fatally injured, near Meadow. The storm was the most severe that ever struck eastern Nebraska. The damage to the college buildings at Bellevue was heavy. The tower was blown from Park hall and the build ing wrecked. Lowry hall and Rankin hall were unroofed. The panicstricken students ran to the basement, and in this way many fatalities were probably averted. The college stables were wrecked and all the horses killed. A number of small buildings and stores in the village were blown down. Those whose holses were completely wrecked were Harry Peters, A. Wright, L. N. Purcell, G. R. Glenn, J. B. Dil lon, Wesley Huff, and scores were partially wrecked. No one was killed outright, but several were more or less injured. Mrs. L. N. Purcell may die and Mrs. Gunyon and Mrs. Sloan are seriously injured. Moving south the tornado struck Fort Crook, damaging several of the barracks buildings, but nobody was in jured. In the town of Fort Crook, The attendance at the convention Is I however,* a number of bufldTngs were entirely state society. More than done expected by the wrecked and other damage An officer from Fort Crook arrived in the city last night, and stated that the damage to the buildings would amount to $100,000 at the army post alone, and that the village is almost a total wreck. A remarkable scene occurred when the officers realized that a tornado had struck the post. Six hundred troops of the 'Sixteenth regi ment were brought to battalion forma tion, and in the midst of flying roofs and other debris, they were marched iacross the parade ground to the sub stantial buildings, where they were put at "rest," and took to the cellars. The roofs of several of the large buildings were blown off and other damage done. The storm lifted and dipped at in tervals, continuing to move southward, doing much damage to farm property. T.he first town struck was Pappillion, eight miles south of South Omaha. At that point the damage was not great, the funnel shaped cloud apparently lifting sufficiently to pass the town without serious damage. It again descended, 'however, as the storm moved toward Richfield, four mile.s south of Pappillion. In its path was the farm of Gus Leader, whose farm buildings were entirely destroyed, and his son, Charles Leader, aged 14, was killed outright. All of Leader's live stock was killed. Edward Martin's farm was the next to be swept. 'Mr. Martin's home and ali his barns and small outbuildings were totally destroyed and Mr. Mar- in a at a in ^any I Richfield was almost blown to pieces, those who follow it in th3 past. Every I length was gone to and every trick tried, but homeopathy as demonstrated one hundred and fifty years ago, still lives, and, like truth endures forever. There is now a dirtli of homeopathic physicians, but the sixteen big insti tutions of the country are turning them out as fast as possible. The de mand is constantly growing, bust the itime will come when the supply will meet the call for homeopaths. That hjs home Thp mUe town of but the casualty list was small. At Louisville half the town was wrecked and at least eight persons lost their lives. Mrs. Frank Ht-ster was killed in her home. Seven men who took refuge in a sand pit north of town were killed outright. Their names were not available. Washouts on Many Roads. Des Moines, May 13.—Train service on the Rock Island and Milwaukee railroads was stopped by several wash outs between Weston and Council RAIN AND HAIL IN IOWA Iowa Central Track Damaged at Faulkner—Hail Injures Crops. Special to Times-Republican. Hampton, May 13.—A rain storm of the proportions some times designated as a cloudburst visited this section during the night, and as a result high waters have caused considerable dam age. A flood of waters rushed thru the town of Faulkner and washed the bal last from the main line tracks of the Iowa Central. The embankment pro tected the side tracks somewhat, and trains were enabled to get thru on the siding with some difficulty and con siderable delay. COUNCIL BLUFFS FLOODED Gets Fag End of Nebraska Tornado Much Damage From Water. Special to Times-Republican. Council Bluffs, May 13.—Thousands of dollars damage was done here last night by the heaviest rain storm in years. For three 'hours the water came down in torrents, converting the bus iness streets at the foot of the hills which surround the district into run ning streams. The terrific force of the rushing water was shown where sev eral thousand brick were washed four blocks down hill and depoiweeia- -qf1 Broadway. Cellars were flooded and the foundation under a new Hail North of Boone. Special to Times-Republican. Boone, May 13.—The storm of last night did little damage in this city, but north of here, along the line of the Fort Dodge interurban, much damage is reported to crops, fruit trees and buildings by a heavy hail. Church Burned at Perry. Perry, May 13.—Fire, caused by lightning, almost completely destroyed the Methodist church here last night. A strong wind made the flames dan gerous' to the business part of the city for a while but the firemen, aided by the drenching rain, managed to keep the fire confined to the one building. The structure is valued at $10,000 and the fixtures at $3,000. Washouts Delay Trains. Special to Times-Republican. Mason City, May 13.—During thun derstorms here last night, rain to the amount of .32 of an inch, fell. A wash out on the Great Western near Min den caused a delay to trains. "KID" FARMER MAY DIE Suffers Concussion of Brain in Fight With Jack Morgan Fight Officials Under Arrest. Peoria, 111., May l!—Jack Morgan, of Indianapolis, knocked out Original "Kid" Farmer in the tenth round of the fight here last night. Farmer was removed to a hospital, where he lies in a semi-conscious condition. Exam ination showed that he was suffering from concussion of the brain, with slight chances for recovery. Morgan and his seconds, Charles Bartson, pro moter, and Referee Ryan, were ar rested pending the outcome of Farm er's injuries. ENDEAVORERS IN SESSION.

Stub trains were run east from Manilla by the Milwaukee road and all connections maintained with the exception of Om aha. STORM DAMAGE QUITE SEVERE. Hail of Large Size Falls Between Ft. Dodge Junction and Boxholm Special to Times-Republican. Boone, May 13.—Word has been re ceived in this city from the -interur ban towns along the Fort Dodge, Des Moines Southern, of a severe storm which befell that portion of the com munity Tuesday afternoon. The storm was late in the afternoon and a great deal of damage is reported. The hail stones which fell were very large, and windows were smashed in that com munity. The center of the storm seems to have been in the territory between Fort Dodge Junction and Boxholm. Communication with that community is hard to get, and the extent of thei damage done will not be known for some time. FOUR RAILROADS TIED UP. Trains Running Between Omaha and Chicago on Only Two Roads. Omaha, May 13.—Only two of the six railroads between Omaha and Chi cago were in working order this mor ning, the other four being out of com mission because of washout following the tornado last night. 300 In attendance. delegates are GREEKS HONOR THOMAS. San Francisco Colony Presents Admir al With Beautiful Silver Urn. Pan Francisco. May 13.—The James G. Berryhill Slaps Su preme Court and Auditor Car roll Unintentionally AIMED AT CUMMINS AND MISSED Claimed That Governor Manipulated Offices to Give Friends Jobs, When in Fact Appointments Were Made by Executive Council—Contention Over Hall of Archives. Special to Times-Republican. Des Moines, May 13.—James G. Berryhill, of Des Moines, slapped the supreme court of Iowa in the face and punched Auditor Carroll, whom he is supporting for governor, in the short ribs in a childish little attempt to in jure Governor Cummins. It is but a small matter all around but illustrates the extreme lengths to which certain would-be politicians will go in an effort to injure Cummins. Berryhill wrote a letter and got it published in a Des Moine-s newspaper complaining because Governor Cum mins delivered some Chautauqua ad dresses for pay and did not turn the money into the state treasury. Then he attacked the hall of archives legis lation. He declared that Professor Shambaugh was having the work of putting the public documents in class ified and indexed form in the archives department by Parrish, a post-graduate of the state university, and a lady stenographer, but that Cummins had this all changed and put the depart ment under the control of the secre tary of the executive council in order to give some of his friends jobs. The facts are these: Shambaugh wanted the state to employ Parrish at an annual salary of $2,500 $900 $400,000 house was washed out and the build ing much damaged. Green houses were heavy sufferers and Ben Marks, who owns a big farm six miles south of town, suffered a loss of $10,000 from stock killed and dam age to prop'erty. At the school for the deaf some live stock was drowned and property damaged quite extensively. The storm here was the fag end of the tornado which hit Bellevue and Louis ville, Neb. a year and [give him corps of assistants to do the work. The executive council put the general supervision of the work under A. H. Davison, secretary of the executive council, who does that work without additional compensation. Then they engaged a corps of clerks who are paid a year each with the excep­ tion of J. H. Kelley, who is paid $1, 000. The appointment of the employes In the department was made by the ex ecutive council, consisting of the gov ernor, secretary of state, auditor of state and treasurer of state, and not by the governor alone. Thfee of the men, Stiles, Hites and Byrkitt, were sug gested by State Auditor Carroll, the candidate for governor whom Berry hill is supporting, and one of them, J. H. Kelley, was suggested by the members of the supreme court, whom Berryhill thus slaps in the face. Not satisfied with this Berryhill "goes after" his own friends still hard er. He says the power to appoint the employes of the department was given to "the governor and his professional politicians composing the executive council." This company of "professional poli ticians" composing the executive coun cil, as everyone should know, consists of Governor Albert B. Cummins, Sec retary of State W. C. Hayward, Treas urer of State W. W. Morrow and Aud itor of State B. F. Carroll. Carroll and Morrow are botti stand patters, and Berryhill is of the same political faction. His classification of them as "professional politicians" is therefore something more than a slap in the face. It is really kicking on the north side a man who is facing south. It is, however, characteristic of the work of Berryhill in politics. There are some other discrepancies in Berryhill's letter, even tho the letter is not a long one. The facts are that the archives department was created at the suggestion of the late Charles Aldrich, whose name is venerated by everyone in Iowa, and whose work was dragged into factional politics for the first time by James G. Berryhill. The first appropriation from the legis lature was $4,000 Greek colony of San P'rancisco presented to Admiral Thomas a beautiful silver urn yesterday, on board the Connecticut, in token of their appreciation of Am erican citizenship and American naval accomplishment for a two-year pe­ riod. Professor Shambaugh was asked to submit some plans for the work. He sent Mr. Parrish to Des Moines to look after it, and Mr. Parrish did some superficial work. Professor Sham baugh let it be understood from the first that he could not come to. Des Moines himself. Mr. Parrish did noth ing in the way of cataloging and class ifying and filing away the documents. He looked thru them, furnished for Professor Shambaugh some material for historical articles, and he and his lady stenographer, whom Berryhill praised so highly, exhausted the appro priation of $4,000 before the two years was up, and the work then stopped till the legislature met again to ap propriate more. The idea of the hall of archives was that the public documents and letters, books and other material, that had ac cumulated in the vaults at the state house since the first organization of the state, should be filed away and in dexed so that they could be found when wanted. They were laying in the vaults stacked up in piles, and some of the most valuable documents were in danger of being lost, and some in fact have been lost. It was the idea of Mr. Aldrich to file these away sys tematically In steel cases, so that they would be preserved. With the appro priation of $4,000 nothing was done except to empty the contents of a cou pie of the vaults into a big commit tee room at the state house and look thru them. Under the executive council the first real work has been done, and a big share of the documents have been cleaned of the dust accumulation of decades and filed and indexed so that they can be found. t- DESPAIRING WIFE SUICIDES. Des. Moines Woman Heartbroken Over Failure to Reform Husband. Des Moines, May 13.—Heartbroken because her efforts to cure her husband of the liquor habit had been in vain, Mrs. Charles P. Higgins, drank an un known poison yesterday, and died a few hours later. Returning home from a four days' spree shortly after noon yesterday. Higgins reeled toward his front door only to find it locked. Borrowing an ax from a neighbor he smashed in the door and entered. Lying on the bed, robed only in her night dress, his wife lay in the throes of death. Neighbors who accompanied the man to his home notified the police, and the patrol wagon was sent with City Phy sician Losh and Officer Rabbitt. Short- 5" ly after their arrival, and while th physician was making every effort save the woman's life, Higgins drev vial of laudanum from his pocket dramatically exclaiming that he vf join his wife in death, attempts^ drain its contents.

Special to Times-Republican. Des Moines, May 13.—Following the suicide of Mrs. Emma Higgins yester day, her husband, Charles P. Higgins, was arrested while still on a spree. On the absence of evidence of his guilt, he was released this morning .by the po- 1 lice, and told that his wife awaited him at an undertaker's. He went there and asked to see his wife, and the under taker, supposing he knew that she was dead showed him her corpse. Higgins at once fainted. RAILROAD SYSTEM PAUSES. During Funeral Services of William J. Murphy, at Cincinnati, O. Cincinnati, May 13.—As 'the funeral cortege with the body of William J. Murphy, vice president of the Queen and Crescent line, and president of several other railroads, was proceeding to the cemetery today, all business on the big railroad system paused for full •five minutes. Every train stood silent and every employe ceased his labors during that time, as a mark of respect to their late chief. GOLD MOVEMENT RESUMED. Today's Engagement Makes Total of $18,!50,000 for Present Movement. New York, May 13.—The movement of gold to Europe, which began sev eral weeks ago, and then temporarily ceased, was resumed today when four and three-quarters of a million were engaged for shipment to Paris. This makes a total of $18,250,000 engaged for the .present movement. WILL BE NO BOLT Bryan Advises Minnesota Followers to Do Nothing Radical in Opposition to Johnston Movement, St. Paul, May 13.—It was persistently rumored today that William J. Bryan had sent word to his lieutenants in this state to act in a conservative manner in making a fight against the candidacy of Governor Johnson for a democratic nomination. The report could not be confirmed. The Bryan leaders were in conference a greater part of -the day and refused to say what action had -been determined upon. They declared the story that they intended to hold a rump convention tomorrow in the event of their losing out in contests before the committee on credentials, is premature. Strong for Taft. Minot, N. D., May 13.—Eight dele gates instructed to vote first, last and all the time for Taft at the Chicago oonvention, will -be elected at the North Dakota republican convention tomorrow. The only fight is in the election of a national committeeman, and control of the convention between the stalwarts and insurgent factions.

Schell, of La Porte, Ind., in talking again today about the Gunness farm tragedy, denied he said Ray Lamphere helped to kill the Gunness children, but had no part in the slaying of any of the men except Helgelein. "I have made no statement regard ing this or any detail of my interview with Lamphere, except to say Lam phere's communications to me were wholly privileged, and unless he shall himself make the statements to Pros ecuting Attorney Smith, will 'be main tained as an inviolable secret." Schell added that, like many others, he believed Mrs. Gunness was alive, but he had no knowledge of the fact. It was merely'his personal opinion. Banks to Give Valuable Ail|g§f La Porte, Ind., May 13.—At a con ference of the officials of three La Porte banks today it was determined that the most effective way in aiding the authorities in untangling the mur der mysteries was to furnish a list of all transactions in which Mrs. Gun ness paid out, deposited or received money. With a complete llat of this kind, Prosecutor Smith expects lie will be able to secure valuable ia formation. One of the. watches found in tlw ruins of the Gunness home was abomI today to be the watch of Ole Buda berg, one of the supposed victims off Mrs. Gunness, from Iola, Wis. Cor oner Mack today received from Osage City, Kas., a communication inquiring concerning Emil Tell, who left that city some time ago to come to La Porte. Tell is said to have had $3,00(7 with bim when he left the western town. His relatives have heard noth ing from him since. B. J. Hunter, a mail carrier on whose route the* sGunness farm is situated, said today that Mrs. Gunness carried on her matrimonial business under three different names. He declared he had delivered scores of letters to Mrs. Gunness under the names of "Mrs. Belle Sorenson," "Mrs. Bella Gunness," and "Mrs. Jennie Hinkley." Mrs. Gunness Had Confederates. Sheriff Smutzer Is authority for the statements that several more globules of gold have been panned out today by Louis Schultz, the miner who Is sluicing the ashes on the Gunness farm. The sheriff is certain the dis coveries are portions of gold filling from the teeth of Mrs. Gunness. What Is considered the first conclu-"3"™ slve evidence that Mrs. Gunness had accomplices in the grewsome work came to light today thru a letter re ceived by Chief of Police Cochraftt from a citizen of Cleveland, O. The Identity of the letter writer Is not r&r vealed, but the letter purports that last August a man endeavored to persuade the writer to go to La Porte and see a woman who desired a husband, and that the man presented him with a photograph of a woman which the Cleveland man encloses in a letter. The photograph is an excellent llkenaM of Mrs. Gunness. ,/j B. OF L. E. IN SESSION. Four Hundred Delegates Present When Session Convenes in Columbus, O.

Special to Times-Republican. iDes Moines May 13.—The charge has been made from standpat sources that the state board of control is hold ing up building operations for some of the biggest buildings £or which the legislature has made appropriations in order not to deplete t/he state treasury. Hon. John Cownie of the state board of control was today asked if this was true. It is not true" said Mr. Cownie. "The fact is we are building and doing as we always have done. We would do no different if there was a ten million dollar balance in the state treasury. It h'as been the oustom of the board of contirol to do about the same amount of work each year as far as priations of $125,000 for an infirmary at Cherokee and a like sum for an In- firmary at Independence will not be in the session. It is then too late in the year to let big contracts with advan tage. So the boaird has always let these over till the year following. Other appropriations made available for the next biennial period are used the next yf-jir and in the meantime the .legisla ture meets, again and provides for the future, so, that, tihe contracts are let to the best advantage of the state and the work'is kept moving steadily in Tiiead of by rush periods." In figuring up the condition of the ,ute .treasury and what it will-prob .ihly contain at the close of this bi-, .:-nnial period t'he standpatter mathe ntiticians have' not failed to include the estimates of expenditures the '.'.00,000 appropriated-by the last lag mature that will not :be spent till the biennial period. 1,.

"I have no knowledge of any such letter toeing sent out or of any such questions being asked of county officials and other prominent republicans, as stated by the Timeins letters.

I can see very easily how con fidential information secured in this way under the guise of friendship for Cummins and the progressive cause might be of advantage to the Allison people in disclosing campaign plans, etc. ""In my judgment, Cummins men should be cautious about answering letters signed in typewriting by un known persons and asking for con fidential information."

U-."V.£..V^ Launch Party Compelled to Jump in Mississippi .River in Mid Stream BOAT WAS PREY OF FLAMES Party of Five, Including Two Women and a Boy, Have Narrow Escape From Drowning Rescued in Ex hausted Condition After Long Strug gle in Water. Special to Times-Republican.', Dubuque, May 13.—To be caught in the middle of the Mississippi in a burn ing launch, to leap overboard and be heroically rescued by the men of the party, was a sensational experience participated In by a number of well known Dubuquers, residents of the north end, several miles up the river. A leak in the gasoline pipe which was not noticed until a match had been carelessly dropped into the bot tom of the craft was the cause of all the excitement, and as the flames blazed up furiously on all sides of them, It was necessary for the two men, the two women and a boy to leap into the waters to avoid being burned to death. It was a case of the choos ing between two evils, and the wat.er seemed the lesser. 1 By the time the rescuers reached the Iowa side, they were about overcome, and had the distance been any greater, it Is doubtful If they would have been able to hold out any longer. The women were thoroughly overcome from the fright and the subsequent ordeal of the rescue, and were quite helpless for a while. SAD HAMPTON FUNERAL Schools Closed in Honor of Miss Clara Andrews.

Everything went along all right until one of the men In lighting his cigar let the match fall Into a little pool of tho gasoline which had formed unnoticed on the floor where an unnoticed leak had been sprung in the pipe leading from the gasoline engine. As soon as the flames began to spread thruout the craft, every one aboard became greatly excited, and the women immediately proceeded to jump Overboard, as the progress made by tho blaze to all parts of the boat was al most instantaneous. Fortunately, the man at the helm had the presence of mind to steer the craft toward the shore, and in this way, the distance to safety was considerably lessened.

EASTERN OFFICE R. J. Shannon, Manager, Brunswick "Juilding, New York, N. Y. TWO MEN—TWO SCHOOLS. iMr. Trewin and Mr. Good, rival can didates for the republican nomination for congressman, have both made speeches In this county. There is food for reflection in what they have said and likewise information from which to judge what kind of a trial of the people's case they would put up if sent to Washington with power of attorney. Mr. Trewin eulogizes the republi can party from iFremont to Roosevelt and declares that all the party has ever done is right. With Mr. Trewin what ever is Is right and there is not one word of sympathy for the party man who feels that President Roosevelt is a better republican than Steve Elkins or Senator Aldrich. Impatience among voters at the refusal of congress to do something In the way of correcting abuses as suggested by the .president finds no recognition in Mr. Trewin's remarks. From all that he says Joe Cannon could believe that were Mr. Trewin sent to congress he would be entirely content with the present atti tude of congress. Mr. Good's address is of different type. !He, too, begins with the repub lican party of Fremont and lauds with eloquent praise the deeds it has per formed, .but he argues that tUere is a duty before It today to wrest control of the government from the powerful men of great wealth classed as the special interests. He refers to the -fight •the republican party made to over throw the oligarchy of the rich slave owners and cries: "Come on, hoys! We lioked them once, and we can do It again!" He argues that President Roosevelt has sounded the note of real republicanism, and he condemns the in action of a congress which will permit shrewd and cunning railroad attorneys to hold it back *o obstruct everything the president seeks to do. Good be lieves in a new deal. He believes In leading his party into the doing of things that will win for it praise rather than mere eulogizing the party name. These two men are fair types of the two schools of republicanism in Amer ican politics today. Roosevelt and Taft are national leaders of one school and Good would enlist as a company sergeant in a congressional district. Aldrich and Elkins and Joe Cannon and Fairbanks are national leaders of the other school, and Jim Trewin argues for their doctrines and creed. T.he friends of Trewin call Good's creed democratic, just as the great in terests call Roosevelt "unsafe" and a thief of democratic doctrine. Good says that he has learned that the man of wealth will look out for himself, leaving the public servant on guard for the average citizen. These men all vote the republican ticket, but their philosophy Is different. BUCKED THE BOARD AND LOST. •At Jollet, 111., a city In which, by the way, the penitentiary is most con venient, a man named Robert E. Ward confessed the forgery of 120,000 worth of notes. He received an indetermin ate sentence. His story is that of the •man who lived in affluence, met re verses which he had not fche manhood to face honestly, and turned his talents to dishonesty. Thus perverted he rap idly traveled the road to shame, dis grace and imprisonment. 'He was for a long time agent of one of the largest insurance companies. It Is the one which 'led the list of dis honest and grafting associations whose course in misuse of the premiums en trusted to them fairly shook the na tion, startled the world, and made the public shun life insurance. Whether the precept of his company made him feel that evil was the easiest way to get along when 'his income of $10,000 dwindled low following the na tional expose, is hardly likely, yet it seems trite to remark that in follow ing the course mapped by his com pany he brings to mind the motto: 'Like father, like son." With his resources as an insurance agent restricted and his commissions lowered thru the distrust of men, he •faced what were for 'him very hard tlrnea. (He was used to .making money on comparatively liberal and easy seal*. Commissions paid by ihis com pany were large and allowances for successful solicitors were especially favorable. His emoluments were con siderable and he was generally used to getting along In the world in a free and easy style. 33ut when his pay suddenly fell to the zero mark, what then? Did he seek work? Did he go about in search of employment, even if harder than he was acoustomed to, which would en able him to live? Not he. His hands were soft and he was -unused to toil. The allurements of the speculative markets were to him the easy avenue of escape from .labor. He was unused to hard work, so why perform any! So he speculated—and lost. Then he spec ul5i.ted more, with a like result. When To the .penitentiary he goes to pay for his folly, to reflect on his miserable course and to be an example to thous ands of young men in theso United States. Ward's career demonstrates again that the only man who can afford to buck the board of trade is the man who can afford to lose. It is so hazard ous a business that unless a man has more money than he needs, he had bet tor let. the game alone. An Indiana farmer has been warned by night riders not to cultivate any more 'tohncco. If he wants to raise to bacco why should they raise a rurtjpus? Some of the paragraphers over the country .have been pleased to say that J. P. Elmer was given the general passenger agency of the Cloyer Leaf system because he was a good player at golf. If Receiver A. B. Stickney •had anything to say, it's a safe bet that the reason was a sounder one.

Nev ertheless that course is no doubt the best course to pursue. There is noth ing more to be avoided than personal quarrel between local newspaper edi tors.

"Taft, who receives $1,000 a month as secretary of the navy, puts in all his time gadding about the country plugging for the presidency, with the approval and connivance of the president, whose candidate he Is. If these are no classes in this coun try, as the president tries to make us believe, why has one employe of the government any more right than an other to steal time from ihis employ ers?" "A prominent business .man who takes daily papers, was surprised the other day to learn that there will be a primary election the second of June," says the Iowa City Republican. "He admitted that he knew there was some political discussion going on and won dered what started it so early." According to the Spirit Lake Bea con "The cold snap the past ten days will no doubt -materially reduce the fruit crop, but there is a certain brand of 'peaches' in every community that are proof against frost. For In stance, the young .men with the peg top trousers and the .giddies with the merry widows seem to .be flourishing." It is noted 'by the Grand Junction Globe that "corn planting Is the order of the day at present. The cold weather of the past two weeks has delayed this work, but the last couple of days has seen lots of corn put In the .ground." The Palo Alto Reporter says: "P. O. Refsell went to Fort Dodge Monday to remain for a week in working in the .interests of the int-erurban railway. He will go along the proposed route and secure stock subscriptions to the stock. We expect to hear a good re port from him and a big boom in the road." -i "There is probably as much Jealousy and spite among senators in the United iStates senate as there is among girls at a boarding school, or as there is In any assembly where nongregarious antipathic people are .thrown together," claims the McCallsburg Tribune. "Sen ator Lodge of Massachusetts Is Jealous of Senator Beveridge of Indiana be cause that youngling presumes to be an advocate for the president policies, which Senator Lodge looks upon as an usurpation of his special role. Senator Hale, Aldrich and all of the old war horses resent the rise of the younger senators with the idea doubtless that children should be seen and not heard.1 FRANK P. WOODS. A friend of Mr. Woods and, reader of the Times-Republican contributes the following words of commendation for Mr. Woods' candidacy for the republi can nomination for congress. "Who is Frank P. Woods and what ion Register, remarks: "It has finally capacity, it is well that these qualiflca dawned upon the minds of certain men tions be known. Mr. Woods has a strong endorsement thruout the state has he done?" On investigation we find Mr. Woods was born and raised on a Wisconsin farm where he at an early age learned the necessity of solving the obstacles of a practical rural life like Lincoln, being dependent upon his own resources for his education which he secured i:i the common schools and la ter made his way thru college by his own efforts—meanwhile providing for his aged father and mother. "Mr. Woods is a pleasant man to mort. He has a kind face and an eye for business indicating that he knows what he is doing altho not making much noi 3e about it. He has an execu tive ability possessed by few men and a reputation for doing things, both of which were well demonstrated in the last, gubernatorial campaign as chair man of the republican 'state central committee. Mr. Woods is a resident of Esthervill?, Iowa, where his friends are legion. He has been actively and sue cessfully engaged in business there having organized the Iowa Savings bank a few years ago in what, at that time, seemed to be a full field and which now is one of the substantial institutions of the city. He is a clean man of high moral character, a mem ber of the Presbyterian church and takes an active part in the social af fairs of his home city. "One of his strong points is to win without the sacrifice of principle In the least degree. Politically he has volun tarily chosen the side of the people as against "Ring Rule"—not only locally but in the affairs of the state, and now that he aspires to serve in a national and district as well as at home. The endorsement given him by the recent Emmet county republican convention was a fine tribute to his character and standing." Iowa Newspapers gggf! NOT 'X A VOTE-GETTER. (Ottumwa Review.) Such an address as listened to by a big audience of voters last Saturday at the Grand was wholly unexpected by the majority of those present. It was announced that the record of Alli son and his claim on the republican citizen of Iowa would be illumined and advanced with the eloquence of United States Senator Johnathan P. Dolliver, until none were so blind in prejudice but that they would concede the re election of the nestor of the upper branch of the American congress. Democrats in attendance were also sur prised at the. character of the address. It was such a deluge of vitriolic ora tory as seldom heard under any cir cumstances, surely never before in thi3 city. If there Is any badge of shame on the state of Iowa at this time It has been placed there by effects from such speeches as Dolliver delivered on the plea than his own political integrity had been assailed along with the re mainder of the Iowa delegation. Logic of fact absolutely void of sen sationalism and presented In a manly manner alone produces lasting convic tion. The hope is entertained even among the democrats of Wapello county that we have no more of this sort of thing in the city of Ottumwa this year. BETTER ROADS FOR IOWA. Davenport Times) (Towa has for years stood at the top of the column in educational affairs the state has provided the nation with many eminent men in the pro ductiveness of her farms she Is un equaled: ,bat in the construction of hard roads this commonwealth is near the bottom of the (list standing close to Mississippi and below Missouri. In diana, which has a definite system of road buildi:nig, has 25,000 miles of hard roads—lineal mileage enough to en circle the globe. T.hlrty-flve per cent of Indiana's highways are hard roads. Iowa near the bottom of the column, has only 2 per cent of hard roads. While the tariff is important and railroad rates do affect the pros perity of the farmer, to how much greater an extent the prosperity of the farmer Is dependent on the kind of roads he must travel from his farm to his market perhaps only he can tell. It would 'seem reasonable at least that a movement .in favor of better highways ought to receive the support of the farmers of the state Here is an opportunity for the re former to get a bearing. Let some would-be leader put a plank favor in.g hard roads into his .platform. His appeal for support ought to meet with ready response.
