THAT is a manly, straightforward
letter Sam. B. Cook, Secretary of State,
sends in consequence OF an item printed
10 this paper last week. 1t will be
found in this issue, and | commend 1t
to the attention of The Scott County
Kicker, which paper takes as its line
OF criticism, "H-ll to all that doesn't
come my waym The trouble with
Bro. Hafner Is that he i~njects too much
OF his personal feelings into his paper.
He lays the pen-rod too often over the
shoulders Of those he has personal i'll
will against. He knows better and
oughten't to do 1t. In the awarding
of the printing of the constitutional
amendments there is favoritism, OF
course-the advertisements are placed
with papers friendly to the party; or,
when there are In the anne county,
two or more Democratic newspapers,
the selection naturally goes to the one
whose publisher is closest in touch
with the official having the matter in
charge. The selection may not always
be In accord with my notion of the fit
ness of things, and | have a right to
say so; but | have no moral right to
charge that the purpose of the official
is to buy the paper he favors. 1t
would be indeed a poor stick OF a
D that he could 80 purchased, and
would be worth little or nothing tc
him or any other person, for any pur
pose whatsoever.

Fisher of the Pennington 7fmes9 If we
mistake not the Times published the amend
ments last fall.-hon County Register.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Feb. 20, 1908.
Dear Mr.. Ake:-Once or twice re-
Gently there has been reference in
your paper to something the Scott
County Kicker has had to say concern
ing the publication of the constitutional
amendments. do not see the Kicker,
but assume from your comments that
that paper is %contending that those
papers which published the constitu-
tional amendments did go under some
sort OF obligation to me personally. |
have no desire to influence, in any
way, the action of the Kicker, but |
am anxious not to be misunderstood or
misrepresented by those whose good
opinion | desire. | had no more un-
derstanding with any other paper in
the State, which was awarded the pub
LEGATION of the constitutional amend
ments, than | did with the REGISTER,
and you are well aware that l had no
understanding with you at all, further
than to send you the publication. 1t
is proper for me to say that in a few
counties when loyal democrats thought
1t would best subserve party interests,
| consented to a division of the publ
cation. This was done in Cass, Shelby,
Barton, Clinton and a few other coun-
ties, but under no circumstances, how
ever, was there any understanding,
direct or indirect, that the papers
publishing the advertisement were
under the least obligation to me person
ally. | have too much respect for the
character and independence of the
democratic newspaper publishers of
this State to undertake a deal OF this
kind. l aimed to place these publica-
lions where they properly belonged;
where they would do the most good to
the democratic party, and where a
personal friend, who was worthy of
recognition, could be favored, | did
not hesitate to do SO. In the case OF
the Pennington Times, l had known
Mr.. Fisher for more than twenty-five
years; he had always been a loyal
democrat, was my personal friend, |
used to live in an adjoining county to
me when I was In Warren, and with
out solicitation on his part, / awarded
him the publication. l have never
asked. directly or indirectly, any |
editor who was awarded this publica-
ton to support me for anything. The
only suggestions | have made to those
friends who have been disposed to be
to me, Is that there was
ample time yet to determine what
might be best to do in the campaign of
1904. Instead OF trying to press any
for recognition. l have uni
urged that those matters be
left alone until the time for opening the
campaign Of next year had arrived. II
felt that you probably did not under
stand my real position in these matters,
aud approaching the value OF your
friendship and good will, and desiring
only to be properly understood, l have
taken the liberty to state these factst
to you. am always willing to be re.
sponsibIe for everything l do.
Very Respectfully Yours,
SAM B. Cook.

Why, boys, how can you stay in the
country when you can enjoy your
selves in the cityP
Oh. the mud! Never before in the
history of the country was the mud so
bad as it is now. Can the roadover-
seers stand the remarks in silence much
longer? Well, then, work the roads
right. We heartily endorse the rock
crusher, especially in Belleview.
Oh! the mud! the terrible mud!
1t cannot grow much deeper;
For bottomless are the muddy roads,
And angry is the driver.
When men start out upon the roads
With loads, or in a hurry,
Their curses are both loud and deep,
And terrible are these men to meet.
Should the roadoverseer then appear
'Twould be sudden death to him | fear;
For should he appear upon the scene
No more on earth would his body be seen.
For his body then would sink, you know,
Into the mud holes that overflow.
And there, poor man, would find his rest,
With plenty of mud upon his breast.
When we appeal to this master mind,
We get an answer of this kind:
''The money is out" while maybe then
Upon opening his purse is a bright new ten.
Road money, sir,.a as sure as you're men!
And then again, on turning our eyes,
We behold again to our surprise,
One of the fair and maidenly kind,
Surprisingly bewildered for her kind,
AT the mud which has solid her once neat
But now wet and bemudded feet.
Then to say we all hate the mud;
Hate is too feeble a word.
We loath, despise, abhor to tell
OF what it will be after this spell.

Three of Commissioner Wares Ap-
pointees Report, Nevertheless.

Three OF the young copyists recently
appointed by Commissioner Ware re-
ported al the Pension Office this morn
ing for service. and a number OF the
other appointees have written that they
viii arrive in Washington in short
time. Only one OF the thirty four young

cept the position.
The appointments became effective
March 1, and a reasonable time will be
allowed for their acceptance. The eligi-
BILE list contains the names OF nearly 10C
more young lawyers. so there will be no
dlficulty in filling the places OF men who
refuse the 5000 positions. AS soon as
the Civil Service Commissioners COM

who took the medical examinations a
number OF additional medical clerks will
be named by Commissioner Ware.

HANNA NOT TO APPEAL

Request of Negro's Friends
Met With Refusal.

Senator Hanna has been appealed 70
by friends OF DR.. w. ID. Crum. the negro
named to be collector of the port at
Charleston. S. c., to demand a record
vote in the Senate on the question of
the confirmation of the nomination.
He has refused the request on the
ground that all OF the remaining time
OF the session must be devoted 10 the
consideration Of matters of much great
er national Importance. and that such
a motion on his part would result In
delay through a Democratic hIibuster
against the nomination.
Senators Tillman and Clay have de-
eided TO prevent vote on the nomina
tion, and II remains now 20 be seen
whether the President will make good
his threat TO reappoint Crum in case
the Senate failed to act upon the ad-
verse report OF the Commerce Commit
