A compilation of quotes on populist influence in democracy, tariff policy shifts, and forecasts for Roosevelt's presidency. Includes statements on budget costs for battleships, U.S. actions in Porto Rico, and Democratic reform debates. Mentions Iowa, Chicago Tribune, and various state papers.
An Iowa Republican voice criticizes public attention to Andrew Carnegie and Russell Sage, defends soldiers, and attacks Democratic claims that tariffs cause trusts. It argues tariffs shelter monopoly and calls for correcting tariff evils to reflect manufacturing costs abroad.
The Journal outlines legislative aims to curb monopolies by boosting competition, lowering tariffs on key products, reforming state corporation laws, limiting patent driven monopolies, increasing corporate transparency, and ensuring government supervision of capitalization and monopolies while opposing public ownership and urging stricter enforcement of anti trust laws.
The Des Moines Capital reprinted a 1877 Republican platform plank arguing to repeal the suspension of the silver dollar and make silver and gold legal tender for all debts. It states the currency should stay ample until trade demands contraction.
Archbishop Ireland urges Catholics in America to avoid forming a religious political party over Philippines policy or as a response to perceived persecution. He argues church and state separation, warns such a party could inflame prejudice, harm public peace, and provoke anti Catholic backlashes. Catholics plotting such a party should heed his cautions.
The piece repeats a moral law: a good tree bears good fruit while a corrupt tree bears evil fruit. It argues that fighting evil with evil corrupts the doer, and urges personal virtue, restraint, and honest, direct action to exclude evil from one's life. It emphasizes consequences of sowing thistles and the universal law of kind.
Director Sage of the Iowa weather and crop service released a monthly summary based on county reports. Hamilton county faced excess rain, but statewide small grain harvests exceeded earlier expectations with farmers saving more grain than two weeks prior. Sage expressed gratification and noted reports exceeded his expectations.
The report describes winds damaging fields but high grain prices spurring harvests by mowers and hand workers to save as much as possible. Corn growth is strong, with prospects for a bumper crop if patterns continue, despite 500,000 acres lost to floods.
