To every man death cometh sooner

With the bloom Of youth yet upon

he had achieved more than is usual
with one so young. AS an attorney

fair, just and upright in all his deal.

loving and tender. In private life he
leaves not one stain upon his charac-
ter. In his public life not one blot
upon his record.
In just appreciation of his worth,
his character and his ability, the peo-
pie Of this county bestowed upon him
the high honor of representing them
in the halls Of the Legislature. While
yet their representative and with a
brilliant future before him, his career
has ended, but his works will live on.

for will become a part OF the history
Of the State of Missouri. An SO he

why Electric Railways Succeed.

The electric railway is to perform a
service for mankind as notable and
perhaps ultimately as great as that
rendered by its steam-operated pre-
cursor. Already it handles the bulk
of suburban and short distance inter
urban passenger traffic; it carries
freight, mail, express and baggage;
1t operates at speeds reaching sixty
miles per hour; its cars are operated
on time schedules and dispatched By
telephone, it's roadbed is often ns on.

that of the best steam lines; and what
is more interesting to the investor, II
pays large dividends. At the present
time 81, GOO, 000, 900 are nominally in.
vested In electric roads In the United
States and upon this sum s7,O0O,0 OC
are paid in yearly dividends; 100000
employees receive yearly in wages
$3.50, 0O0, 900 and there are 10000 miles
of track on whice $1,000 cars are run.
In 1899, ten miles Of electric road were
built for every mile Of steam road con
structed. Still it cannot be said that
the electric roads have achieved theil
great success in competition with
steam roads. They have opened a
field Of development which does not
compete with and was not open tC
steam.
The peculiar advantages Of the cleo
trio system of traction are frequent
service, fexibility, convenient loca
tion, clean, light and airy cars, ant
low fares. or these, probably The
most important are location and The
