The Missouri Democratic state cOnVen-
ton will meet in st. Joseph today for
the purpose of nominating a ticket for
state officers. The Democrats over there
appear to go about it with as much
sangfroid as if they had regular Kansas
majority in the that state and the recent
Nolan incident had never occurred.
Nerve is an essential quality in politics
but it fails to pull a party through some
times, and it now looks like this is one
of them just over the line to the east.

Pension Commissioner Raum thinks of
resigning that he may seize financial OPP
portunities that would otherwise slip
past him. There are perhaps a few men
in the country who would be willing to
exchange their present financial oppor-
tunities for the salary of the position.
The opportunities the commissioner re-
fers to, if he is quoted correctly, come
with the holding of the position, it seems,
as the holder wants to get out and fell
willin' Barkises until they get there.

the beautiful little poem which we re-
produce today from that paper. THE

especially for it, the strong and graceful

Western Minnesota and South Dakota
are experiencing something of the James
and Younger era of few years ago in
Missouri and adjoining states. The
banditti Of the present have not been
designated by name or leader but they
are getting in their work on the .. S.
mails just as punctual and vigorous. 1t
is hoped that something will turn up to
cut short the robbers career before they
shall terrorize the country where they
operate and wantonly sacrifice innocent

Action by the law making department

a Wichita dispatch, that the Barber
