These three words are derived from the
*M same Anglo Saxon root—breowan.
All three are foods. Barley, a grain
that makes both bread and beer.
Bread, a solid food. Beer, a liquid
food.' :f fi|.|
In nlaking bread, flour arid yeast are
used in making beer, barley-malt, hops
and yeast are used. The same principle is in
each—both are wholesome foods.
In Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer the Pabst Eighi:-Day
Malting Process matures the malt slowly and uniformly,
thus transforming every particle of nutriment in the barley
into perfect food substances. -S/r'-y ^4

hops, by the Pabst brewing process,
which insures absolute purity.

PROGRESSIVENESS ENACTED.
"I would rather have been a rnpinbe
of this legislature than any that lia:
held a session in the past twenty
years," was the expression of a veteru
who has served almost continuously in
the house and senate since 1S88
was thoroughly just illed by the facts
For honest and sincere effort and fot
actual results accomplished, the state
of Iowa will look a long time to ttnd
a legislature that can be compared to
the one just adjourned.
La,st summer saw a ibitter campaign
It was an awful light for friends and
neighbors to engage In, but results
have justified the cost.
Iowa nas a primary election law
which gives to the people a voice In
nominating their candidates for office
and virtually establishes the selection
of United States senators by dircct vote
of the people.

Iowa has\an antl-pnsa law that" pro
hibits all railroad passes of every kind
anc[ description,' excepting only em
ployes devoting their entire time to
railroad service.
Iowa has a law permitting all her
people, poor as well as rich, to rido on
her railways for two cents per mile.
Iowa has. a law forbidding corpora
tions to make campaign contributions.
Iowa has a law giving authority to
her railroad commission to establish
joint freight rates which will remove
the discrimination In rates heretofore
existing against the small towns and
in favor of the railroad centers and a
law instructing her railroad commission
to investigate interstate freight rates
and make complaint against all rates
unfair to Iowa shippers.
Iowa has a law guaranteeing to her
people pure food, pure medicines and
pure stock foods.
Iowa has a law permitting her large
cities to adopt the Galveston plan or
business corporation management of
municipal affairs and a law centraliz
ing responsibility^ for administration of
city affairs upon mayors, two laws
which will go far toward making Iowa
cities the best managed in the world.
Iowa has a law which provides for
reforming all criminals under 30 years
of age with an indeterminate sentence
and an able board of pardons to grant
•paroles to worthy unfortunates instead
of closing the door of hope forever to
her weaker and fallen citizens.
If such an aggregation of reforms
had^been the sum total of ten years of
effort a /good work would have been
done, yet the assembly just adjourned
has accomplished all of them. The
travail of last summer's campaign has
been fully repaid. The people have
something to show for their fight to
give Cummins a third term. The gov
ernor has lived to see more of his sug
gestions for improving the conditions
6f his people enacted into law than any
other governor who ever'held office.
The insidious power of special inter
ests in Iowa politics has, temporarily,
been annihilated. Pure representative
overnment for a session has been set
jjp and the results have justified the
ideal. Nothing o£ radicalism has been
able to get thru both houses, yet much
of real reform has-been accomplished.
Nowhere has there been a fear to
change existing conditions but every
where the fullest hearing, most careful
consideration and sensible as -well as
courageous conclusions shown in set
ting up neWsorders of affairs. This is
progress of the genuine and beneficial
sort. To have -been a progressive in
1906 and '07 will be a pround heritage
to bequeath to future generations.,
O A S IN E N E W S A E S
Miss Susan Keating Glaspeli, a good
•newspaper woman with literary talent
and a news nose, in her paper on "The
influence of the Press," read to a Dav
enport club, gave Its members a heart
to heart talk from the reporter to the
reader of daily newspapers. Among
other matters handied plainly she gave
the explanation of the existence and
popularity of "yellow papers as due to
a yellow" public and offered as the
solution a toning down of the color of
public demand. She said a number of
true and pertinent things to the as
sembled club members but nothing
truer than this:
It is the province of the newspa
per to criticise. It is the province of
the newspaper to expose. "TJiink how
his poor wife will feel," they say
when they come to the' office asking
that the story about the grafter bs
held out. But the paper which holds'
out the story about the grafter is not
attending to its business and does not
deserve thei name decent newspaper.
It is the business of the paper to print
the news. It is the business of the
paper to tell the people when things
are wrong. It is too bad al^out the
grafter's wife, but the grafter is re
sponsible for that, not the newspa
per. We must look in wider sweeps,
and farther Into the future.
Some people say that newspaper
reporters are grafters themselves.
"Better fix the reporter with a ten
dollar bill," you occasionally hear.
It is certainly true that all
men are not born good and honest, and
newspaper men are no better than oth
er people. But what honesty might not
Most guilty men who ha\e much to
lose in cash, business standing or pri
vate reputation thru publicity, rue
anxious to pay for suppression. It is
to the infinite credit of the profession
that so few are able to secure Immuni
ty from the press. The few that escape
rarely do so thru purchase. It is an
erroneous impression that money is a
firevailing influence in I elit ri it
rooms of a daily newspape
In the high c®iss newspaper editor
ial sanctum three forces tear at the
judgment of the men who govern the
wheels of publicity—justice, the neVs
value of "the story," and that charity
that springs from pity. These men
veritably "sweat drops of blood'* on
occasions. Especially true is this of
big newspapers published in small
towns. When exposuro comes to the
guilty man who has taken a high stand
in public and social affairs, 't(^ the
woman whose connections of family
and in society are prominent, when the
sons And daughters of good men and
women go fatally wrong and the pub
lic waits to see "what the paper will
say about it" the sweating process be
gins in the newspaper office. It may be
a mother crushed beneath the disgrace
of her son and daughter, a true and
tender woman pleading as only such
women can plead for her children a
white faced and white haired father,
with a life of honor and respect be
hind him, urging his own claim to
charity In behalf of some member of
his family "with the broken assurance
that publication "will kill his moth
er.': Delegation after delegation from
fraternities representing the vast ma
jority of the leading citizenship of the
town, come in to plead, argue and at
times threaten. Mutual friends flit In
and out. Every favor that the news
paper and Its editors have ever received
from the ones who plead and the ones
for whom they plead Is recalled and
urged over and over. These exper
iences, common in the Inner offices of
newspapers are crucial. They leave
grey hairs and more lines in the faces
of the men who must be just before
they are kind, true to the public be
fore they are pitiful. If ^t were a ques
tion of payment, of common greed and
quasi blackmail any grafter could "run
a newspaper."
The idea that immunity is purchas
able of the decent newspaper is a mis
taken one. The average newspaper
maker's sense of duty to the public is
high. If he has another sensp higher
is that of duty to "the sheet." He
may be "worked," at times thru his
sympathies, tout he is not amenable to
bribery and not to be bullyragged. If
all professions, trades and occupations
were pursued as conscientidusly and
impersonally as that of newspaper
making, there would be little talk and
fevv offers of bribery.

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTFS.
Say* the Burlington Ilawlt-Eye:
"The Iowa legislature having failed to
provide, agricultural high schools, the
common high schools of ttye state will
now be justified in deyotjniy more
attention to training in the* elements
of agriculture. Why not? Manual
•trainlr.g, normal training and domestic
science and business training are made
part of the curriculum. Is not agri
culture the -chief and noblest calling
of all? Give the farmer's boys and
girls their share of the money and
talent devoted to our high school."
"Of all humanity's sufferers," the
gambler is the worst," says the Du
buque Telegraph, "for his mania ap
parently is Incurablc. Penniless and
unable to borrow, lie steals to get
money to risk on the turn of the card
or the numbers on the dice. He Is
evident in prisons as a forger, embez
zler, thief and robber."
Observing that the New Jersey as
sembly has passed a ^bill making the
punishment for kidnaping children 40
years in state prison, the Davenport
Democrat suggests, "Here is an ex
ampler for other states. As has been
said, itnurder is a braver crime in most
cases than kidnaping, and it certainly
involves less cruelty."
"The lawywer members of the state
senate got in a fine piece of work when
they were amending the railroad pass
law by having It provided that the
railroad companies may be permitted
to issue passes to two law firms in
each county seat if it may be so de
sired," says the Clarinda Herald. "This
would fix It so that If thought best the
railroad managers may be able by ju
diciously looking after the lawyers to
have them all taken care of, and the
next move will be to fill the legislature
with -lawyers, so as to have the laws
made right. It Is quite a shrewd
scheme, but under the primary elec
tion law the people may have some
thfngot say on the subject,"
"While the legislature neglected to
pass some measures the majority of
the jieople seemed to demand, on 'the
whole they have done well," -concludes
the Oakland Acorn. "The two impor
tant acts are the 2-cent passenger law
and the /primary law. It cannot be
said that the railroads dominated -this
legislature, tho some bills which the
railroai interests wished* killed were
slaughtered in the senate. Maybe the
legislature worked on the theory that
it is better to cut oft the dog's foil by
degrees rather than ,all at once, and
sd they waited two years before taking
another fall out of the railroads." 9

dent Roosevelt and Mr. Harriman lacks

the "Dear Maria" feature of a former
correspondence," renaarks the Council

thousands of paying subscribers, and
tor that reason he collects millions
from the advertisers. The day after
the last general election in Iowa, one
of Hearst's Chicago dailies was seen
on the news stands of Iowa, with a. big
head Hue announcing Cummins' defeat,
while tne other Chicago dailies-told of
his election. And only last week "the
limit of absurdity was?'reached when
the American, In an edition that was
on the streets at 5:30 p. in., told how
.M:iyor-elect Busse had "received con
gratulations until long after midnight,
then, fearing he might break down
under the excitement, he retired."
This siime paper, in -type that'could
be read across the street, conceded the
approval of the traction ordinances,
and then, one paragraph lower, an
nounced:
'Hut the friends of municipal own
ership—the forces of honesty and de
cency—refuse to concede the passage
of the ordinances."
It was this paper that on its first
page carried a five-column line, "Busse
Wins!" and on the editorial, or back
page of, the paper, showed a seven
column caption in an effusion of dem
ocratic cheer. The caption read:
"Yes, Mayor Dunne's re-eltJction is
certain."
Such little things as these seem to
have no effect on the general reading
public. Lincoln was righ-t "You can
tool some of the people all of the time."
Hard lines seem to be drawn these
days on religious prophets and seers.
Dowie went down to his grave
a pauper, full of venom In his latest
"breath, deserted by wife and son, «nd
all but a few score of formerly deluded
followers. Betrayed by his chosen
lieutenant, he saw hig Ill-gotten gains
legally 'transferred to' the control of
hated opponents, and the despised
news-papers showing up his character
and operations In the strong glare of
publicity. All this in the last few
months of his life. It was a terrible
argument in favor of the doctrine, of
punishment here on earth. Truly
Dowie lived twelve months too long.
And what of Mrs. EJddy? True It
is her last days are consoling with the
thought of the numerical strength of
her followers.' But if she retains any
of her reasoning faculties, the present
legal battle must -be the source of
much irritation to a woman, whose
very existence is one qf thought. It
must be a supreme effort on her part:
to avoid thinking of the persecution
comoing to her just now. From the
Christian Science standpoint, it is
all imagination that her gray-halrec!
and whiskered son wants a receiver ap
pointed. -She has not appointed, any
trustees to prevent her appearance in
court, or to prevent her millions going
at her death to her direct heirs. In
fact, to be strictly Christian scientific
ally logical, she hasn't any dollars
she only thinks she has. unfortunately
for lier peace of mind, her son and 'his
lawyers think the same. And Mrs.
Eddy has too lived too' long. If sh'e
had joined the majority two yearn
ago, much better for Christian Science
and the school of religion she so suc
cessfully founded.
Carnegie, the great, there is only one
Carnegie, Is quoted as saying that he
is entitled to no credit In amassing hi-5
millions. He modestly doe^ claim, an
unequalled ability to select men to
make milions for him. j'o state it any
other way, he buys brains, and the
brains makes millions—for him. And
this is probably the true explanatiqn
of Carnegie's -success. As hard as it is
to our self-conceit, very-few of us know'
how to make money. We are all ex
perts in the art of spending It. "Can
giive cards and spades" to. Russell Sage
in that line. But to sieze opportunity
and make the most of it, is only the
faculty of one In the thousand. Our.
hind sight is so clear, our foresight so
dim. And so when Carnegie hires an
assortment of brains, and puts them
to work in departments where the
Jft-
sult is dollars for .the brain buyer, why
Carnegie gets in a class by himself.
A Harriman furnishes the brains for a
score, of underworkers, he is it, while
Carnegie stands by and absorbs the
ideas of others. Both are equally suc
cessful in so far as piling up dollars
are concerned. And with all this goes
this peculiar condition of affairs. Car
negie, the brain 'buyer and absorber,
makes friends of the very few men -he
uses to forward -his own interests. Har
iriman, the individual thinker and pro
ducer, hasn't a friend on earth. Car
negie, the canny Scotchman, indebted
to his assistants for his millions, has
much of their love and respect. Harri
man that ow&s no man for the use of a
"thinker," will be followed to his grave
not only by hired carriages, but 'by
hired mourners.
