City u coterie Of Democratic trick
sters are now attempting still
greater outrage. A plot is on foot
to oust every Republican county

and the rotten election law for St.
Louis and Kansas City, together
with the iniquitious police law for
St. Louis. will give the Governor
supreme control of his party in
those cities and insure him their
delegations to the State Conven-
tions.
Now, by GUSHING the Republican
officers i'll nearly fifty counties and
filing the Offices with appointees of
the Governor, the snpposition is
that such appointee can control the
delegations from those counties for
the Governor.

The one on which the experiment
will first be tried, and the Attorney
General has filed in the Supl cmc
Court, an information in the na-
ture of a quo warranto against
County Clerk Roberts. The writ
has been issued and served and
the battle is on. Similar cases
have been prepared against all the
Polk county Republican officers,
to be filed if the censpirators are
successful in ousting Roberts. That
Roberts was fairly elected is con

Getting Acquainted With Missouri

Since 1874, the year in which the
Republicans Of MISSOURI carried
the state and elected ten Congress-
men in fifteen, it has taken f,l-
sion of the Democrats and Popu-
lists to prevent continued Repub-
lican success in this state. Last
November the Democrats, with
the aid of their Populist recruits,
managed to scrape together ma
iority, but smaller one than they
secured before they bartered old
principles for Populist support.
Last year Missouri Republicans
cast by far their largest vote except
that for Mckinley. The Republi-
Gun vote in the state last fall was
255, ,42S, or 19.171 more than in
any previous election except that
of the great presidential contest OF
1896. Gross injustice is done Mis-

1.-THE MAN WITH THE HOE"
Suggestions Offered in the Poems of Edwin
Markham.

In the poems of Edwin Markham
there is a sign of the revival of an old
thought-the divinity of work, the re-
ligion of service. This is distinctly
the dominant characteristic of the Cos
pei of Jesus. The New Testment is
full of it. The old artists and artisans
had this idea; they were cO-workers
with God. They wrought as he had
wrought, in wood, iron, brass, silver
and gold. They wrought beautiful
forms. They initiated Gods work in
nature. Conscience was a great ele-
ment in this work-there was, could be
NO sighting it. The workers were
working with God. One can imagine
how that thought led the artists and
artisans to beautiful conceptions, that
inspired them with infinite patience,
that rewarded them for ceaseless work.
Working with God makes men to
hope, to try to do work like his. In
this sense every artisan who works to
make things more beautiful, more
nearly perfect, who makes beautiful
perfect work for the enjoyment of
others, who thus serves the highest
possible purpose of work and service,
becomes Christ.
The road is brotherhood the New Time
takes,
The rallying cry is. ''Chirst the Artisan. ,
