The work of tlie Iowa state conven tion must be viewed with satisfaction by loyal and thinking republicans all over the nation. It nominated strong and clean men for the various state oftlces. Its platform is a clear-cut, progressive statement of republican principles. The convention justly congratulated congress upon its currency legislation and upon its dealings with Porto Rico, Cuba, and the Philippines. "The policy of this government toward the islands," it said, "has followed inevitably upon our expulsion of the authority of Spain. It has been dictated by the conditions present, has been consistent with the spirit of the constitution, and the paramount consideration has been to secure the lasting welfare of those peoples whose fortunes and destinies have become in a large degree dependent upon us. " The convention indorsed the policy of protection as the foundation of our industrial and financial independence, but it also recognized that that policy is a practical one-whose applications must change with circumstances, and indorsed "the policy of reciprocity as the natural complement of protection, and urge its development as necessary to the.realization of our highest commercial possibilities." In its declarations concerning socalled "trusts" theconvention recognized them as useful instruments for the nation's industrial advancement, but asserted "the right residing in the people to enforce such regulations as will protect the individual and society from abuse of the power which great combinations of capital wield." No thinking observer of industrial progress could ask for more. None interested in combinations can find the Iowa attitude unfair or oppressive. Chicago InterOcean.

HOIST BY HIS OWN PETARD. Our envious and credulous Ixick-door neighbor, miscalled the independent, said the other day that John G. Davis had come to Plymouth to buy the News and Republican; The next evening a temporary attache of that sheet was in this office and we rallied him on the dailv exhibitions of truthlessness and unreliability made by the paper he represented, saying to him in the course of the joking that certainly Mr. Davis had bought this paper; that no other motive for a visit to Plvmouth bv him at this time could be conceived. The editor of half the misnamed independent was informed of the conversation and fell a victim to his own credulity, the wish, as we remarked Vednesday, being father to the thought. lie rushed into print asserting the sale to be a fact. That Mr. Davis should be glad to spend a couple ot. days out of his vacation in the county from which he received his lederal appointment is such a natural and obvious thing that the next councilman for the first ward quite overlooked it; that his own lie about the purpose of Mr. Davis's visit would naturally lead to jocosity was incomprehensible to the trading .stamp representative of Marshall county. The queer little fellow set a trap for himself and then got caught in it and though he could see Three I engineers where none existed, he is quite unable to see that he is the victim of his own lie. A due observance of the rule of courtesy practiced by all respectable papers, that of permitting every paper to make the first announcement of its own changes, would have saved the doddering dicky his humiliation, and the exercise of as much sense as the Almighty gave geese would have Informed him that we would not permit him to know of a sale except through our own columns. SEARCH FOR THE MOTIVE. : Before following party leaders blindly wherever they, may go says, the democititic Michigan City Dispatch, it is always well to find out what the motive is that actuates them. In all cheap money periods ft will be found that nine-tenths of the leading agitators are controlled by selfish motives. It is not what will be best for the country as a whole, but what will be best for me as an individual. A man has been reckless or unfortunate in his business and is close run for money or is badly in debt. lie think' more money and cheap money will help him, and without considering its effect on the entire country, he selfishly advocates what seems best for him, and he usually becomes a rampant soft money man, ready to denounce anybody as a gold bug or a plutocrat who does net agree with him. In time the croz3 passes oll andths nan himself h likely to see that he J i better off than he would

have been if his inflation ideas had succeeded. This same condition of affairs is notable among advocates of protection. It usually is purely a matter of self interest. This is well illustrated by a story by Col. Mills w,hen he was in congress and w as working on the Mills bill to reform the tariff. A constituent in Texas had a large number of sheep and hearing that Mills was going to lower the tariff on wool he wrote him vigorously protesting against the plan. In a few days he sold his entire flock and he at once wrote Col. Mills: "I have sold my sheep and now I don't care ad what you do with the wool tariff." This is a very fair illustration of the way thousands of political leaders are controlled. All sight of principle and all interest in the general welfare of th country is lost or swallowed up by w?;ut is conceived to be the selfish interest. Such people are never safe leader and they neither know nor care much about party principles or what is best for the whole country. -

SNOBBISHNESS OF GRADUATES. Prof. Charles Zeublin of the university of Chicago in addressing a class of students- in sociology has advanced the theory that public school education, with the higher education which frequently follows it, so far from being "our most democratic and leveling institution" in reality tends to emphasize class distinction. The division between the educated and the ignorant, he believes, is the greatest class distinction we have. So much is this the case, he finds, that university graduates in this country are snobbish, even as they sometimes are abroad, the system which has made it possible for them to become educated men being thus responsible for placinsr'them aloof from the mass of their fellows. It needs but to be recalled how much greater this gap between ignorant and educated would be were there no public schools to perceive the fallacy into which Prof. Zeublin has fallen, observes theChicago News. It may be that the university men tend to fiock by themselves and to assume a caste distinction, but so far as the mass of men have been educated by the public schools the distinction is that much diminished. The remedv for anv such class distinction as Prof. Zeublin seems to fear lies not in cutting down the opportunities for higher education but in improving and increasing the opportunities for education everywhere and in all grades. It is not true that universities turn out graduates most of whom are snobbish. There are poor men in universities and they are not only democratic themselves but exert a democratic influence on others. P.ut even if it were true, the most that can be said is that the distinction of class is one made by individuals and not bv the svstem. The individuals would probably be snobs in any event and the great mass of men and women hold snobs in contempt. Among people of true cultivation there is not likely to be a serious gap, and the aim in both public schools and universities must be to make that cultivation as high and as wide spread as possible. . WILL IT BRING PEACE? The British government proposes to end the war in South Africa by declaring that all Boers who do not surrender before Sept. 15, shall be permanently banished. General Kitchener's proclamation contains no promise of amnesty, and no conditions -as to surrender. In this particular it differs widely from the proclamations issued at the close of our civil war and from those issued by the American authorities in the Philippines. The proclamations of 18G4 and 1865 in the United States outlined conditions of amnesty and invited surrender not by threat of punishment but by clearly defining the policy of the government as to those in rebellion. In all the proclamations issued by American officers in the Philippines there was promise of amnesty to all insurgents, who surrendered and accepted the authority of the government. In the Transvaal, in the Orange Free State, and in Cape Colony the condition of affairs certainly calls for deflniteness on this - point. More than one-half the Boers still in the field are British subjects from Cape Colony. The government has declined to regard these rebels as the United States regarded the insurgents in the Philippines, or as Lincoln and Grant regarded the confederates in 1865. The severest penalties -await the Cape Colony Boers on capture or surrender, so they fight on. The rule of the British government Liu? been' to deport all Boer prisoners. It makes no promise now that those who are still fighting will not be-deported on surrender, but simply announce that those who refuse to surrender by Sept. 15 will be permanently banished. This policy is not pacificatory or constructive. Mr. Chamberlain announced in parliament a few days ago that there would be no confiscation !n

South Africa and that money would be furnished to re-establish Boers on their farms. "Why should not this policy have been officially indicated or declared in General Kitchener's proclamation? Such declaration, with offer of amnesty of fair treatment to Cape Colony rebels, would have Ixjen more effective in securing peace than a threat of permanent banishment. Inter Ocean. .

ABOUT NATURAL GAS Siate Geologist Points Out Some Mistakes Commonly Made'. (Indianapolis Journal.) Recent investigations made' by State Geologist Blatchley in the gas and oil fields of this State have brought to light the surprising fact that- many wells have been begun and drilled to a depth at which salt water was struck and then arv ndoned for this reason. In most, if not all, of these cases the wells were deserted betöre the drills had reached either of the rock formations which contain gas or oil. This has, declares the geologist, occasioned a needless waste of large sums of money. Professor Blatchly has a letter fjom E. E. Lindsay, secretary of the Crawford County Oil Company, of Robinson, 111., stating that the company has lately abandoned a well 850 feet deep because salt water has been found. Mr. Lindsay asked thelndiana geologist what, course should be pursued. Professor Blatchley has replied, urging that the well be drilled deeper 'by all means. "Whv " said Professor Blatchley, "that well at Robinson is fully 850 feet, if not indeed more, above the corniferous limestone, which is the uppermost of the two gas and oil-producing rocks of Indiana, and it is 1,200 or 1,300 feet above the Trenton limestone, which is the main oil and gasbearing rock of Indiana." "I know of many instances," continued the geologist, "in which wells have been started in the smaller towns of this state and abandoned long before either of the gas or oil-bearing riek formations were reached, thus wasting the money of the companies. In a number of cases within my knowledge, well-drillers have told-the members of the company that employed them that Trenton rock had been reached, when they were' in reality, far above it. In this way, much territory has been condemned as nonproductive without being a fair test." Professor Blatchley is an enthusiast on the subject of Indiana oil and his indignation has been aroused by .this wasteful practice. He believes that many wells would prove profitable if their owners would persevere until they had reached the rock formation from which oil may be expected to be obtained. Speaking of the salt water which has been such a bugaboo to well-drillers, Professor Blatchley said that it is a comparatively trivial matter. He says the thing to do is to "case in" the salt water and go ahead with the boring of the well. Another lie Nailed. It seems that theeditorof the Independent cannot print a single number of his paper without lying about somebody and Friday evening he used my name to try to make his readers believe that he was justified in stating that John G. Bans had bought the News and Republican. The fact is that I told the reporter of the Independent last Wednesday that I sawMr. Davis on his wav hor.e and he told me that he did not have any money to buy newspapers and that he would not give thirty cents for any newspaper anywhere for 'himself; consequently when the Independent stated that Mr. Davis had bought the Republican it knew that the statement was f alse,and when it said that I reported that Mr. Davis came to Plymouth to buy any paper it wilfully lied.

BEDFELLOWSHIP. The Time When Girls Exchange Confidences. After the prolonged separation of a year when girl school chums meet again, they are apt to put off all conversation of intimate and private matters until bed-time. Then reviving dormitory days of old they open their hearts and tell the secrets accumulated in twelve long months. And some of these confidences are very sad. It is sad when the girl who was a crack at tennis, could pull an oar and swing a golf club has to admit that she has given up all those things because her back aches so incessantly. The pity is that such break-downs are so common among young women. They will continue to be common and to Increase in frequency until the girl is taught that the stability of the general health is founded on the locaj womanly health.

A newspaper says that a number of leading Tammany politicans have arrived to consult with Croker. One of them stated that the coming campaign would be conducted on high moral lines and that the clergy would endorse it. WHAT WOMEN SAY about the merits of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the best testimonial to its wonderful curative power. There is no claim made for "Favorite Prescription " which is not backed by cures. Every statement made as to what this medicine will do is supported by the living evidence of what it has done. It has made weak women strong and sick women well. It has brought back the roses to faded cheeks and the plumpness to shrunken forms. It has given laughter for tears, and joy in life for utter misery. What Favorite Prescription n has done it is doing every day. "A few years ago I suffered severely with female weakness, and had at times dreadful pains," writes Mrs. Mary V. Brown, ot Creswell, Harford Co., Md. " I w-ent to my doctor, and he gave me medicine which did me good for a while, but L would get worse again. I had a sick htadache nearly all the time; was so we&k around my waist could hardly bear anything to touch me. My feet would keep cold and I could hardly do my work. I would work awhile and then lie down awhile; was completely rua-down. Suffered from disagreeable discharge and also severe pains at times.

All communications held as sacredly A great many women have gratefully accepted the opportunity of a free consultation by letter with Dr. Pierce, as a welcome escape from the indelicate questionings, the offensive examinations and obnoxious local treatments, thought necessary by some physicians. The modest woman shrinking from these things often lets her disease grow and eat into her life rather than submit to a treatment which offends her delicacy. A letter to Dr. Pierce avoids all these offensive practices.
