Cedar Rapids Republlcani Booker T.
Washington is to be the commencement
orator at the State university today. There
is no prejudice against Booker T. Wash

up from slavery to an exalted position of
usefulness and nobility acknowledged by
all men whose Judgment is ruled by their
reason, and not by their prejudice. He Is
doing one of the greatest and one of the

his success has been so marked, and he
Is so modest with It all. that he ought
to be acceptable In every place where true
merit and true worth are understood and
acknowledged.
Dea Moines Capital: Congressman Hep
burn, In addressing the Eighth district
convention, declared against tariff revision
at the present time. The colonel remem
bers that business panics have gone along
with tariff . revision heretofore, and he
wants the country to DrosDer a while
longer. He wants the farmer to continue
to receive $7 oer hundred for fat cattle
and hoga. The colonel does not care what
the mugwumps say or think. He is not
running on the mugwump ticket. There ts
not a mugwump In Iowa who will vote for
any republican congressional nominee no
matter what the Iowa platform contains.
The Iowa republican platform should be
an endorsement of the national republican
platform of 1M10. Any demand for "tariff
changes" or "tariff reform" would be out
of place and would be a practical criticism
of the republican congress. We cannot at
ford to make Iowa republicans misunder
stood. Iowa State Mews Note.

DES MOINES, June 12. (Special.)
Judge Nathaniel M. Hubbard of Cedar Rap
Ids died this afternoon at 1 o'clock at his

enjoyed a wider personal acquaintance than
almost any other man out of office' In the
state. He had been general counsel of the
Chicago ft Northwestern railroad in Iowa
for thlrty-slx year, and as such bad been
conspicuous In the political affairs of the
state and was recognized as one of the
most Influential politicians of the state. H
was regarded ss a great lawyer, a shrewd
lobbyist, an adroit politician and a good
soldier. His death was unexpected. Last
Monday he had stsrted to drive to hie farm
near Cedar Rapids, where he spent a great
deal of bis time. He hsd a rickety buggy
and the rattle of the board frightened the
horse so that he Jumped, throwing Judge
Hubbard out. One wheel of the vehicle
passed over him and broke four ribs. His
Injury was considered serious, but death
was not feared until this morning, wben
It became evident there were internal in
juries. Judge Hubbard wa 73 years old, a natlva

bilities and was breveted major. He was
appointed a district Judge in 1868 to fill a
vacancy, but a year later resigned to enter
the service of the Chicago & Northwestern
Railroad company. Aa the Iowa representa
tive of that company he ha been for more
than a third of a century one of the most
Influential men of the state and, while, be
cause of bis aggressiveness in politics and
business he bas made many enemies, he
was loved by a wide circle of friends for
many good qualities.
Getting; Itld of Savage Fish.
The first practical effort to make use of
the new law on game Ash, which permits
the state game warden to give permits for
seining to deputies under certain conditions.
Is being made at Lost Island lake in Palo
Alto county. A club has been formed of
farmers and residents of Ruthven to clear
the lake of the fish that subsist on other
fish. The club ha purchased a big seine
and makes dally catches of fish in the lake
under the supervision of a deputy game
warden with a permit. All the fish that
sre protected by law are thrown back into
the lake and tbe others are divided among
the members of tbe club. If there are too
many fish tbey are sold. As soon ss tbe
lake is cleared of the fish that destroy tbe
game fish it will be restocked, and the ex
pectation is that in a few years It will be
restored to its former condition a a fishing
resort. . . . , u
