One result of an ovcrturning OF
the party in power in Missouri
would be that the conduct of Dem
ocratic county officers in the dis
charge of their official duties
would conform more closely to the
laws by which their Offices arc
supposed to be regulated. Under
the present condition the Demo
cratic County official, in many in.
stances, guides himself more by
partisan prejudice than by the
statutes, and feels perfectly safe III
his office, being amcnable only te
Democrats for his conduct.

Cut and Dried Politics.

Missouri Democrats must be
pleased to be relieved Of suspense
as to their state ticket. The ranl,
and file have not even selected del
egates to the state convention. bat
that proceeding, like the cons en-
ton itself, is mere empty form
ality. Missouri has been in the
hands Of Democratic managers for
SO many years that the party
machinery runs with perfect exact
ness. MIR. Dockcry kHows what
he will be: Sam Cook knows what
he will be: NJ. Crow is arranging
in his mind the details of his
coming Office; Mr.. Pitts is adjust
ing himself to his future place,
and 50 on through the list, few
small details remaining open Just
for the looks of the thing. Sam
Cook humorously remarks that
eve want to- hou dcIiberatiye
convention, but if Sam shouldn' t
be the next Secretary of State he
would be the most surprised man
in the whole commonwealth. The
old rule of place for everything
is beautifully applied by the Dem
ocratic band that perpetuatcs itself
from year to year, and from age
to age, at jefferson City.
Originally, Democratic politics
in Missouri was not fixed science.
There was Il time when members
of the party speculated on dele
gates and nominees. They have
been kindly relieved of all uncer-
tainty or mental strain ON these
points. Party leaders get togcth-
CT in Il quiet room and settle
everything in advance of the pri-
maries. The ticket is made up.
the pcrfunctory button is touched
and the names selected appear on
the ticket with unerring regularity.
Popular government on this pla;
is understood to be improved and
refined. Why should anybody
make disturbance at the Demo.
cratic primaries or resist the in
cvitabIc ut the Democrat State
Convention: The whole thing is
governed by predestination guided
from the state capital. Democl at
ic self government in Missouri
means five or six men. And the

primaries and conventions us il
they enjoyed the puppct show.
