The trouble with our contemporary. which is
taking such a narrow view of the taxation prob.
lem in questioning the honesty and sincerity
Of its opponents, is an old and common one in
Missouri. This ridicule Of the money lender
as a friend OF the borrower, the inference that
each other and a refusal to allow that any
common public spirit, civic interest and patri-
otism binds the interests of all classes Of soci.
ETY. to a broad conservative policy, which shalt
best subserve the good Of all. is the basic fault
Of this papers attitude and criticism upon this
important amendment.

This Is hardly a papers right to place such
a construction upon the motives Of men for
