If the bill providing for the hanging
of murderers at the state capital should
become a law, Sedalia will have reason
to congratulate herself that she did not
secure the capital, after all. But
then, perhaps Sedalia wouldn't object
to a little thing like that.

REDUCE THOSE SALARIES.

There are but IL few days left for the
state Legislature to work, but if it
adiourns before it reduces the salaries
of the excise commissioner and coal OIL
inspector of St. Louis and of the coal
oil inspector of Kansas City it will per-
pelrate an outrage upon the public.
The excise commissioner of st. LOUIS
gets $500 per year. The coal oil
inspector gets about SIG, 600 and the
coal oil Inspector of Kansas City gets
about $4,000. The total salary of
these three men is over $50 900 per
annum. The work in each position is
clerical and an average salary of 81, 800
would be sufficient. 1t the Legislature
should reduce these salaries as they
should be the state would save over
S4O,0 600 per year, or half enough to
support the state university, Or suffic-
lent to pay the salaries of the nine
supreme judges, or enough to main
tain either one of the state Normal
schools These exorbitant salaries are
wrong, and if the Legislature don't
reduce them to the bounds of reason,
it will perpetrate an injustice upon the
taxpayers that will be i~nexcusable.

OF course Lexington can worry along
until the day of judgment without the

the schools, without railroads, without

years until she will have to get along
without some things she now has,
which she does not need any worse

Yesterday ball game between Sar
Antonio and Houston was tull Of SEN
sationalism. Red Herbert threw a
runner out at second from right field
on a basebit, Looie Knau kicked a bal
to Weber, freeing a runner at second
and retiring the side, and Charlie We
Der stole second while Tickle Knox
held the ball in center field after We
Der had made hit. These are few
plays that do not come up in every
ball game.
And the Bronchos won.
Had to win.
Mike showed them how to do it.
And then can you wonder?
Well, things did look squally in the
second inning, when George Keefe
filed the bases until they were over
crowded and Buffalo had to move in.
But after that the larboard twirler
steadied down, and although he gave
eight bases on balls, Houston failed to
score again.
In his teagerness TO make it three

can't fool them all the time, and yes

their presence lends enchantment to

seemed to be more interested in the
game than the other spectators, excep-
ting Waddy Tate, and he is in class
by himself when it comes to real

Today Frank Weikart's Senatorial
aggregation of Austin pens here for
three games. The Senators may not
be as good as, the Bronchos, but if you
will observe the Barometer you'll see
that they are right in the push for
third place. With this condition of
things it beYiOoves the Bronchos to
play ball.
Closing here Monday, the Bronchos
