his life on his farm in western Bates
and raised very interesting family OF
boys and gils, to whom he is giving
every advantage in training and
education. He has been success

his own business the people need

lively to the front in party councils,
neglecting his own business for dem

and always possesses the courage Of
his convictions. He would make a

would be no mistake made for the
party and the people if Bob Braden
was nominated.

LOWEST TAX RATE IN UNION.

State Treas. Williams has issued a
financial statement which should
cause feeling of intense pride to
well up in the mind Ofevery democrat
in Missouri, as well as every other
citizen of this glorious state who is
not too deeply prejudiced or too hide
bound politically to appreciate a
good thing gratuitOusly thrust upon
him, as it were. This consists of the
fact that the condition OF the state
treasury is most gratifying. The
states income is ample to meet all
liabilities and fully pay off the bond
ed indebtedness in 1903 But, high
above all else is the cause for con.
graduation: Missouri's tax rate is
the lowest of any states in the
union, while her public institutions
of all kinds are up to the highest
standard, and will compare favora-
bly, with those of most states many
times older than Missouri.-Ex.

THREATENS TO CUT MT. VERNON.
GoTsHALL SAYS PORT CHESTER LINE WILL
GO ROUND IT IF RESTRICTIONS
ARE IMPOSED.

A publfc hearing was given last night In
Mount Vernon by the Common Council on the
application of the NewYork and Port Chester
streets of the city over and under grade. The
citizens voted unanimously to give the pernis-
sion but complications arose when some Of the
members of the Board of Aldermen wanted to
put restrictions and provisions in the permit
which were unsatisfactory to President W. G.
Gotshall. Some of the suggestions made were
in regard to the situation of stations and that
the company should bind itself not to crowd
the
President GotshaI, after answering questions
for nearly an hour, became SO exasperated that
he grew white with anger, and told the alder
men that if they insisted on putting restrictions
in the grant they could keep it, and his cor
poration would choose another route and leave
Mount Vernon out. He said that some of the
conditions they were seeking to impose on the
company were unheard OF in his experience In
railroading.
Mayor Fiske was not pleased with the indie
Lendent attitude of Mr.. Gotshall He said that
the people Of Mount Vernon wanted the ROAD.
but the aldermen, being responsible for thelr
acts wanted time to go into details and see
that the city was thoroughly protected. A mo-
ton prevailed to lay the question over until
conference could be held between the railroad
committee of the Common Council and the
representatives of the New-York and Port Chas-
ter company. Mr. Gotshall repeated after the
meeting that If the aldermen insisted on putting
any petty or unsatisfactory conditions in the
permission his company would not accept it,
hut would build the line between East Ches-
ter and City Island and leave Mount Vernon out
entirely.
