The circus that played Plymouth yes
terdsy evidently learned lesson. 1t is
not likely that it will refuse to patron
ize another newspaper just because the
rates are a little higher than they would
have them. Advertising that comes
cheap brings slender results as exem-
plified by the circus that visited Plym-
outh. Never since the publisher of the
Independent has been in Plymouth has
circus drawn fewer than four times
the number of people that attended
Yesterdays performance. 1t must he
remembered, however, that former cir
cuses had the moral support of the
Marshall County Independent and the
Plymouth Daily Independent. This is
pointer for business men that needs
no further calculation on our part.

FIRED THREE SHOTS
AT Her HUSBAND.
Edward Towards Wife Broke Into
His Sleeping Apartment and
Trouble Resulted.

Edward Howard, a ~liveryman living al
No. 2sOl Laclede avenue, swore out a war
rant yesterday against his wife, Amanda
Howard, charging her with assault to kill.
Howard said that while he and his
children were asleep about 10 o'clock Mon
day night his wife broke a panel Of glass in
the front door and entered the house. Pro-
ceeding upstairs, he said, she drew a re-
volver and fired three shots at him. None
Of them took effect, and he ran downstairs
and called in the police. A patrol wagon
was called and Mrs. Howard was taken to
the Eighth District Police Station. where
she spent the rest of the night. Yester-
day morning she was taken to the Four
Courts.
Mrs. Howard and her husband are sepa-
rated. She left him on February "a. she
says. because he abused her. Since then
she has been managing a hotel at Seventh
and Walnut street. and living at No. 1928
Spruce street. On Monday afternoon, she
said, she sent out for some clothes, which
she had left at her husbands house and
he refused to turn them over to a mes
senger. 80 she went out herself. Before
she started. she said. she bought a re-
volver to be prepared in case she should
have any trouble. When she reached the
house Howard was in bed. She said he
refused to answer her calls, and she broke
into the house. When she forced the door
to his room, she said, he knocked her down
and 1t wa then that sho drsd 1t him.

REJOICING WITH US

MOI the least pleasing incident In con-
nection with the passage of the Worlds
Fair bill by Congress and its signature
by the President is the salvo Of praise
for st. Louis which neighbors have ex-
tended to the promoters Of the proposed
celebration.
Chicago papers have been yer ready
to lend n helping word toward the enter
prise. Even in the East. where the cele-
bration Of the Louisiana Purchase might
naturally be supposed of less interest
than in the Middle West. the press has
been gracious In extending encourage
mcnr.
Mayor Reed Of Kansas City through
The Republic sent his congratulations
10 ST. Louis with Il heartiness that
showed the sincerity of the greeting. 1t
Is not too much to say that every town
in Missouri and in the Mississippi Val
ley feels almost as happy as st. Louis
over the passage of the bill.
For all Of these good wishes, st. Louis
is thankful. Without them half the joy
of the brilliant Congressional victory
would be lacking.

BRAINS VS.. BLUE BLOOD.

General Lord Wolseley's condemna-
ton of the British Army system as
being too largely under the control of
civilians in the War Office. with the re-
ply of former War Minister. the Mar
Quis Of Lansdowne. accusing WOlseley
of incompetency as 'C~ommander-in-
Chief, is the official beginning of the
English quarrel in high places which
was made inevitable by the South
African war.
There is nothing particularly new
that is likely to be brought out by the
open controversy now under full head
way. The English people are already
convinced, through an appalling expert
ence, that their army system is of ghast-
" inadequacy In every detail. They

BEND TO THE YOKE.

It is not likely that protesting stock
holders Of the National Tube Company
; or any other concern sought to be alb
sorbed by the Steel Trust will be able tc
prevent the full carrying out Of the
: plans OF consolidation perfected by the
worlds greatest combine.
The power of enormous capital and of
mastery and relentless intelligence is
behind the 81. 1OO,O 200, 600 trust organized
by Pierpont Morgan. AS that %organiza-
ton now stands it is well-nigh irrcsist-
/, ible. 1t possesses both the strength
and the determination to crush all op.
position from its path toward complete
monopoly. Stockholders of smaller con-
Germs that are within the sphere Of in
fuence'' Of the Steel Trust will inevita-
bly, find that the best course possible
to them is to make terms with the
giant. 1t must be this or ruin in the
end.
The Pierpont Morgan 81. 100. 0OO, 200
Steel Trust is trustiSm incalnate. 1t is
the master-creation of commercial greed
and Of cOmmercialized government. 1t
is the logical and typical product Of Nc
Kinleyism and Hannaism. In its every
detail it represents the sacrifice of the
rights of the many to the privileges of
the few. The American people should
watch with untiring eyes every move
ment of this money-monster. For, if
they are to remain a free people, the
time is coming when they must intelli-
gently grapple with it in defense of the
very life of popular institutions.

SETTLE IT

Within a few days the Missouri Legis,
lature must reach a conclusion on fran.
| elise taxation. To-day the conference
committees Of House and Senate meet
to consider disagreements. The confer,
ence should end in union on the best
measure and settle the question.
1t has seemed to most advocates of
franchise taxation that the Senate bill
embodied the principle in palmer and
simpler form. In the definition Of what
is to be covered by this form of taxa
ton the Senate bill is unquestionably
better. The words used in the House
bill leave a doubt about its application
to any but a few forms Of public-ser-
vice companies.
Only one objection has been urged
against the Senate bill-that it does not
provide machinery for thorough en-
forcement. 1t seems to The Republic
that the present tax laws Of Missouri
fully supply the necessary machinery
for collecting data and enforcing any
mandate of a franchise-taX law. How
ever, 1t would do no harm to add some
of the House provisions to the Senate
bill. At all events the defining clauses
Of the Senate bill should be retained.
AS a whole the Senate bill seems more
certain and less liable to attacks ON the
grounds Of inconsistency and ambig-
uity.

Of the business structures. one of which

be a three-story building. the plans for
which have been drawn up by Mariner &c
Clark, to be erected by the Turner Real

the new structure will represent a depart
ure in architecture similar to that dis
played in the various trust company build

The building will occupy the southeast
corner of Eighth and Olive streets, and
Will be constructed OF gray brick, with
black mortar joints. 1t will have n 'front.'

TO WIN THE FIGHT.


Democratic organization for the city
campaign o under full Roadway must
needs be complete and comprehensive,
extending intimately into every ward,
precinct and block OF the entire city,
and keeping in close and constant touch
with voters.
Every vote possible must be brought
out next month in behalf Of good gov
eminent and a faithful administration
of the municipality during the Worlds
Fair period. The local Democratic
ticket was nominated on the platform of
good government, and in direct obedi-
ence to the wishes Of the people. 1t ap-
is solicitous for municipal reform. The
Democratic campaign must be prose
cuted in an ap%preciative %consonance
with the spirit which dictated the
Democratic nominations.
At the time of the nomination Of the
Democratic ticket it was hailed with
instant favor by the elements of local
citizenship that should decide the re-
suits of the approaching elections. 1t
has gained steadily in favor since that
day.
The way to bring out this support at
the polls is by NEAR of a mastery
organization and of intelligent effort
which will not cease until the polls
close on election day. Get right down
