A Lawyers Mean Trick.

Here is one of the stories told by
Judge Shelton during n recent exc
cutive session OF the bar in Macon:
Some years ago Judge Hayden,
OF Howard county, brought a Islander
suit for client, who, it turned out,
didn't have much of a case. There
was considerable bad blood between
the plaintiff and defendant, and the
former had considerably magnifed
his alleged grievance because Of pref
udice, Judge Hayden was master
OF invectives and his client had in.
structed him to take the hide off Of
his antagonist ii he got a chance.
Mr.. Leonard, another prominent
lawyer of Central Missouri, appeared
for the defendant, Well, by the closest
scratch Hayden got across all de-
murrers and to the jury.
Learned lawyer that he was, he
saw there was no hope for his client,
to get any damages, but he intended
to do his best to make his client feel
good, anyway. Three hours were al
lowed to the side, and Hayden told
the court he would attend to the di,
vision OF the time on his opening and
closing speeches himself Then he
sailed into the defendant administer

SAM COOK TELLS MORE
OF "SOFT SNAP" REGIME
A Striking Contrast Between

Jefferson City, April 3.-The fol

hand book strikingly illustrates the
difference between the soft snap
conditions which prevailed during
the six years the republicans ruled in
Missouri and the business.like meth
DDS which prevail under democratic
management.
"Here is brief chapter from the
official records of Missouri which
gives striking contrast between the
business like methods which prevail
under democratic rule and the soft

six years the republicans filed the
offices in Missouri.
attention has been called TO the
fact that during the rnthe six years
the republicans had control OF Mis-
souri, they did not impose one dollar
of taxes on the railroads. The in
justice of this policy was all themore
fragrant because taxes then were
enormously high and the burden
which individual property had to
bear was made doubly excessive by
the rank iavoritism showncorporate
interests.

to tie railroads alone. Other great
