Mr. George D. Perkins views Sena tor Cummins' Des Moines speech in exactly the light it was considered in these columns in last Friday's issue. Mr. Perkins says: "There has been no change in the business management of the republican party within the last few years. The oranization and leadership in congress is much the same as it has been for many years. If it is betraying the people to the corporations now it must have been doing the same thing through the decades to whose record we have all been pointing with pride We must have been fooled then as we are being fooled now. If the Payne bill is in inquitious the Dingley bill must have been more iniquitous, for there wtre no insurgents then to fight the people's buttles. If the railroad bill of today is bad the rate bill of 1906 must have been worse. In fact, under such rotten leadership the whole record of the re publican party since var time must have been rotten. Grant this, and what claim lo public contidenc is left the republican party as a political organization? Is the suggestion of a remote possibility that the republican party may over a new leaf, after all these years of corruption, sufficient to deter (he public from turning to the opposition party for immediate relief?" The republcan party is no better and no worse in the national congress than it has been in the past. What Senator Cummins said against its leadership the. democrats have been saying all along. What the democrats said in the past was true what they are saying today, and what Cummins echoes, is true. Shall we believe that the tail will be able to wag the dog, that the few in surgents will succeed in transforming the party? Hope feeds on poor food if we shall so believe. Tiiere can be no hope that the re publican party will turn over a new leaf until that party shall be defeated. Standpatters will not yield to insur gents, nor insurgents to standpatters, primacy in leadership until defeat has decided the issue between them.—Du buque Telegraph.

Iowa State College. CapyriCht, 1919. by Amarioa fra«a A.tocUtian. LUE Monday" might lose some of its terror for the average family if the weekly washing were changed to some other Steam ladened rooms, odor of boiling suds, an uutidy bouse from kitchen to attic and "pickup" meals all day. combined with the accumula tion Of duties and cares since Satur day. make Monday a disagreeable day for every one. Whoever established the custom of setting Monday aside for a "wash day" made life just a lit tle harder than necessary in scores of bomes. And yet so firmly established has the custom become that it takes genuine courage to break away from it and wash on Tuesday, instead. When you think about it, bow much more suitable Tuesday is for the work than Monday, which, following a day of rest, finds the whole house more or less disarranged! •lay. It is rarely possible and sometimes quite unwise to attempt to outline any housekeeper's work for her. One must know conditions and be familiar with the life of the family before being really competent to arrange the rou tine of domestic affairs. Rut for the benefit of the woman who has every thing to do for her family and who perhaps is not wholly satisfied with her present plan let me present this program for at least Monday and Tuesday: Monday.—Put the house In order, rtan the meal* for Tuesday and do ettra baking for that day. Get the laundry ready for washing. That means look over the soiled clothing and do the necessary mending. Tears and broken seams increase in wash ing. Take out stains. .It is much eas ier to do thin before washing than after, and there 1st more time the day HANDY LAU9DBY 8T0TB. before than when the washing is in process. Soak soiled clothes. See that tubs and other things are ready for an curly start also be sure that soap, bluing and other supplies are on hand. Tuesday.—'The special work for this day will be the washing, but it should uot be carried on to the complete dis arrangement of the family life. tlood. substantial meals should be served promptly, as ou other days, and the wife and mother should uot be so en slaved by the washtub and wringer that she has no thought or attention for husband and children. There is no reason why she should be if the wash ing has not beyond all reason piled up her work so that It requires almost superhuman effort to accomplish It. While prepuring breakfast the laundry fire may Ite started and the water heated. After breakfast and after the dining table has been cleared the washing can be commenced, and if it is performed in an intelligent way from start to finish It ought not to In terfere to any great extent with the ordinary comforts of the day. The clothes were sorted and some of them put to soak the day before. That means a long stride toward an early completion. The Order of the Wash. One reason why there are so many iudiffereut laundresses and so much Inferior laundry work Is because little or no attention has (teen given to dif ference iu fabrics. Cotton, linen, silk and wool are practically treated in the same way. The same kind of soap Is used for all. They are washed In water of the same teuiptvature. Some times t'uey are washed In the same water. They are glyen the same aniiiuut of nibbing and equally indif ferent .'inslng. Iu sortlug the clothes arrange them iu Ave plies as follows: Tabic linen and fine muslins. |lyj linen, towels and handkerchiefs (previously soaked in ammonia and water if used for a coldi. Flannels. Colored cottons and stockings. Soiied towels and cloths. Xo cno questions that soaking the (•iotluM loosens tbe dirt and makes the WNahl&g easier, but only white clothes !fit colors can he treated In this and It Is not well to soak a*J kinds of whiu-1 iu one tub. Aft er soaking iu cold water to which a good naphtha soup or washiug pow der has been added little or no rubbing will be necessary before putting the clothes In the boiler. Kerosene used in small quantity in tbe cold water la which clothes are soaked makes the washing easier. The success of laun dering also depends on tbe kind and amount of soap used. For wool and silk articles use- only a good white soap containing very little alkali or acid. Both these chemicals have an Injurious effect on silk and wool. Sal soda uiakea woolen garments yellow. tia makes the finer harsh and less elastic. Tbe fiber of wool Is composed of num berless sections, or sheaths, each with more or less jagged edges and each one growing out of the other. These sheaths form a tube which, with its ragged edges, explains the reason for shrinking. Diluted acids roughen the wool fiber strong acids disintegrate It. Chorlde of lime Injures the liber even If cold used hot, the filler Is destroyed. Ammonia has the least Injurious ac tion on wool, therefore Is the most sat isfactory agent for cleansing it. Silk is a strong, elastic, lustrous dou ble fiber. Ail alkalies net upon it. ac cording to tbe kind, strength and tem perature of the solution and tbe length of time the silk Is left in the solution. Tbe luster Is first lessened, and tbe fiber Is finally dissolved. Dilute acids roughen silk and strong ticlds ruin It. Thus it will be seeu that all garments of silk and wool should lie washed with only the mildest soap. This should be made Into a solution by cut ting the soap Into thin slices, dissolv ing in hot water and adding to the .suds in which the garments are to be washed. This method is much better than rubbing the soap directly on the garment. Both silk and wool are in jured by dry heat. Silk first stiffens, then breaks, so that the water in which It is washed should uot be hot Flannels should be washed In water of the same temperature throughout the process and should be hung to dry in a temperature the same as the wa ter. The expansion and contraction of the "wool fibers, caused by change in temperatures, make flnnnel thick. Tep id water and a moderate temperature for drying and tbe best white soap added to the washing watPr are simple rules to observe in washing woolen garments. The vegetable fibers, such as cotton and linen, are of a woody nature, tough, strong and not so easily af fected by chemicals. For this reason cotton and linen materials are not so soon spoiled by careless washing as either silk or wool, and yet too much soap, prolonged boiling in dirty water. Indifferent rinsing and inattention to stains soon make the best cotton or linen dingy and unattractive. One of the commonest neglects in ordinary washing Is that the water is not changed often enough. Garment after garment is washed in water so satu rated with dirt that it Is impossible to make it remove any more. This wash ing is followed by careless rinsing in only one water, which does not begin to take out ail the soap. If tbe bluing follows, as It too often does, this rins ing in soapy water, the clothes are very liable to be stained witb iron rust This will almost certainly be the case If Prussian blue Is used. This substance is a salt of iron, and witb an alkali such as there is in soap changes to Iron rust. A simple experi ment to determine whether or not you are using Prussian blue is to beat a little of It In a strong solution of sal soda. If Prussian blue tbe mixture will turn yellowish red. and Iron rust will settle in tbe bottom of the vessel. 8imple General Directions. It is more ofteu neglect of little things than carelessness about big main points that makes washing an unsatisfactory task. Attention to these details ma? lighten tbe work for some women und bring them better results. Remember to make fresh suds when ever necessary. It Is a mistake to think you can make clothes clean In dirty water. Put the clothes to boil in cold water and heat slowly. The best results are obtained when there Is a large quanti ty of wnter und the boiler Is but half full of clothes. Each bollerful of clothes should lie put on in clean, cold water. Rinsing Is very important. The clothes must be free from soap before bluing. Use soft water for "first rins ing. then hard water If color of soft Is not good. Hani water may be softened by boil ing. then cooling before using, or a solutiou of salsoda may be added. This ought not to be too strong or the salsoda will injure both the fabric and the hands. Jn bluing shake out each article and drop it into the bluing water, rinse carefully through the water, then wring out at once. Do not allow clothes to stay la bluing water for any length of time or they will be streaked. Thick starch is made by mixing one half cup of laundry starch and one quarter cup of cold water, then add one-quarter teaspoonful of white wax or lard nnd one quart of boiling water. Put over tbe fire and boll for several minutes, stirring constantly. Uncook ed or partly cooked starch will stick. Thick starch may be diluted, or if a thin quality Is desired use twice as much water. Ironing Is tbe completion of good laundry work and the test of the laun dress. It requires a good thick Iron ing blanket tacked securely to ah iron ing table or board, clean Irons, an Iron stand, a piece of beeswax tied In a cloth on which to clean the irons, a bit of old cloth on which to wipe them and a piece of paper folded several times on which to try the Irons. This is the necessary outfit, but In addition there must he practice, care and skill to insure complete success. a|. W Ointm n's Cat »»K •h i" frontain Mer-u-y.

Springfield, 111., June 1—The legis lative investigation in which the San gamon grand jury is engaged, took oil a broader aspect and several new angles were opened. The start of the day's work was the issuing of sub poenaes for three men, two repre sentatives and a state official who have not yet figured in the investiga tions, and the official close of the daiiy grind of the jurors was with the testi mony of Rep. H. D. McCullom of Louisville. The new summonses were for Rep resentative A. M. Foster of Rush ville, chairman of the fish and game committee of the forty-sixth general assembly. Nathan H. Cohen, state fish commissioner, and Rep. 13. F. Stay mates of Clinton, Pewitt county. Representative Foster and Fish Commissioner Cohen are to appear before the jurors Thursday and will be questioned concerning the fate of a bill advocated by the state fish de partment which died in the committee presided over by Representative Fos ter. The chairman of the fish and game commission was also one of the Democratic members of the lower house who voted for William Loriiner for United States senator and will probably be closely questioned by the jurors on his reasons for forsaking the regular candidate of his party.

Staymates, who is sum moned to appear, will also be asked iiy he leit the ranks of the support ers of the regular Democratic nominee for the United States senate, Law rence B. Stringer, and voLed for Lori mer. The questions to be asked of Representative Staymates will be par ticularly pointed, as L. B. Stringer is a resident of Staymates" district and leaders of the party are said to have pleaded with Staymates to continue loyal to Stringer. Representative Mc.Cuilon, the only assemblyman called by the jurors, is from the Holstlaw distiict. and though a Democrat, voted for Lorimer. Mc Cullom told the jurors that he voted for Lorimer for political reasons and that he had no knowledge of any mon etary transactions either in the sen atorial election or in other matters where his vote was cast. He denied all knowledge of a legislative "jack pot." After the ordeal he firmly de clined to talk with newspaper men. He will be recalled today and will again facc the jurors. States Attor ney Burke will conduct the examina tion and the questions may be more searching than those asked. A systematic summoning of all Democrats who cast their votes for William Lorimer in the joint session which elected him is contemplated. It is the theory of tile prosecution that such a movement might uncover new clues with which to unravel the tan gled skein of legislative affairs. States Attorney Burke is expected to return from Chicago and a long day's work in promised to the grand Jury which is to convene at 10 o'clock. Big Freighters Are Stuck.
