No Vain Regrets Hardly a week passes without some one rushing into Our office after the paper is out and telling us of some mistake ha noticed. We don't care about this, for we have been In the busi ness over twenty years and do not re member getting out an Issue without an error In It. It is practically Impossible to assemble all the news written by the editor and the correspondents and what Is taken from exchanges, without having some errors in it. Just Imagine yourself writing up all the items In the paper and not making mistakes. In the toll and wear and tear of newspaper life we are glad we do not make more and worse errors than we do. Superior Express. Finally Identified Up et Fremont there is a rule in the high school that students shall not stay about the buildings later than 4:30 p. in. One of the lady teachera noticed that this rule was being broken regularly by a boy who persisted In stay ing In the laboratory. She entered a com plaint to Prof. Gardner and he, determ ined to enforce the rule, went Into the laboratory to labor with the youngster. The lady teacher pointed out the culprit, who proved to be Prof. Albert Gilbert, of Johnson, who Is a teacher of science In the school and extremely young looking. Prof. Gardner should see that his teachers become acquainted with each other. Auburn Granger.

SENAT0RSHIP IN BACKGROUND No One Willing to Make n Campaign on Slim Chance of Success, bnt Number Who Would lie Glad to Have Oilier. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES .MOINES. Ia.. Jan. 17.-(Sperlal Telegram.) At 'the Seventh district democratic conference today a resolution was passed favoring two state conven tions, the first to be April 1,- to be fol lowed by the annual Jefferson day ban quet April 2. District Committeeman Price was so Instructed. He was also Instructed to call county conferen-es for the purpose of getting out candidates. They met at the Savery hotel in this city today to discuss the primary elec tion . law and arouse enthusiasm. With them, however, were Claude R. Porter of Centerville and Senator Jamleson of Shenandoah, both In the Eighth district, and Judge J. M. Wade and Representa tive Koontz of. Iowa City In the Second district. It was claimed that the four men were In tho city on bu'slnesi and by accident and that the conference wan strictly one for district purposes. 'We met to go over the primary elec tion law." said Clint L.. Price of ln dlanola, state committeeman of the Sev enth district. "The primary law Is as simple as A. R. C. If you Kit down and read It over, but many do not do met. We wanted to go over It and have every thing understood. At the same tlmn we wanted to arouso enthusiasm and get the boys to working." The proposition to renominate the offi cers on the democratic ticket of 1'.'06 Was one of the things that democrats were discussing In the lobbies of the hotel. It Is understood that Claudo R. Porter Is not enthusiastic over the fact he waa the favored nominee for gover ior. If the party leaders insist, however, he will accept. Of course the nominations will be by the primary, but the lead'-i-a could accomplish that If they unlt-.'J on it. Another thing being considered by the democrats Is the proposition to not have a democratic candidate for I'nlted Statoi senator. General Weaver has been men tioned for some time and Hon. Jerry Sullivan and Claude R. Porter ham been urged to be candidates. The Idea now Is that If there Is no "candidate before the primaries, if the legislature should by accident be democratic. It would be un Instructed and might then be able to get out better men. It la clulmed thut Judge Wade, Claude R. Porter or Jeiry Sullivan, do not care to conduct a cam paign before the primaries, but khould the legislature go democratic, any one of then would bS willing to accept the electlgn. - Captured After Thirty lean.

LSc&LY BRIEF IX CALDWELL CASE Appellant Files Argument in Supreme Court. MEANING OF "C0MK0N LABOR' Held that This Term Dora -Not Refer to Work of Men In Bnalneas or Profes sion. The brief of the appellant in the matter of the application of Jacob C. r'aldwoll for a writ of habeas corpus has been filed in the supreme court by his attorneys, Jefferls and Howell. This is the case test ing the validity of the Sunday closing law. Caldwell Is a barber In the Taxton hotel a:id was arrested for having his shop open on Sunday. He was found guilty In tha police court, but appealed to the district court for a writ of habeas corpus, which was refused by Judge Troup, when he held that the term "commcn labor'' In tho statutes referring to Sundny closing In cludes all classes of labor. The appellant holds that the statute is unconstitutional, In that It provides that "nothing herein contained In relation to common labor on the fiist day of the week, commonly called Sunday, shall to. con strued to extend to those who conscien tiously do observe the seventh day the week." This the appellant holds to he class legislation. It Is pointed out that Friday Is the Mohammedan sacred day of worship. Says the brief: There are many votaries of this religion in this country, who, for reiiuious reasons, conscientiously do observe H rlday ss the Sabbat Ii and who are forced to refrain front common labor on Sjndav without recourse to an exception In favor of them as there Is to those who conscientiously t observe Saturday. This Is a relisl ius dis crimination. Intolerable under our system. Suppose tilf caSc of a Jew and Mohamme dan: "A" Is a Jew and "B" Is the Mo haniniedni. fcurpose "common" labor means every a-t of secular work, trans action, hiis'ncss or traoe. nnd that i-v-rv man Is proiilbltrd to wo:k o-i Sundav. Provided: t Those who consi lentioosiy ii) observe Saturday ore excepted troni lis provisions. Saturday Is tiie specific day and tlint class who el-verve that duv are excluded n i others. The statute s.iva 1 "A," the Jw: "Since ynu do observe Sat'irdav you need not ' ce-i.se Hi'mhiv work." and to "H." the Mohammedan "Since you do not observe Saturday, but do observe Friday, you must ol serv-- 'nil- day hs a day of rest." 1 About Common l.nbor. On tho subject of c-iinnion labor the ap pellant proceeds to arue thai the lecis laturo by the use of the Jerm common labor has recognized that there are other forms of -bor. The brief ssya: The sum tMal of Judge Troup's position Is if any form cf laoor cnuioliiei with mental operations, or labor not so com bined. Is rforn:ed on Sunday the xt former Is guilty of a violation ef Dip Ihvc. This comprehends as rt definition of Isb r every secular overt effort to i-arn money. From very necessity no man can be pun ished for thlnkhig or feeling, but only for doing. Then, ilie only iliing- that Is ex eluded by Judge Troup from the operation Q( the law 'Is thinking, feellnif. T.i'rss of clarity and works of necessity. f.;vry thlng else Is included In the term "common labor." The casa ef WInh sisninst Calhoun is cited, in which tho Ncbrnks supreme court held that the term "common labor" does not mean as much as vocation. A number of decisions are quoted In which It expressly held that 'Kborer" meant "one who Is hired to (lo, manual or iunlal labor." llnildlna Prrmtll. Chillies Western.
