should be enacted providing that after
conviction for a felony there shall be
no stay Of execution on appeal unless
judge Of the supreme court, upon an
inspection of the record shall deter
mine that there Is reasonable doubt
of his guilt, and probable cause for the
appeal. When the evidence of guilt is
plain and clear and there is no error
in the trial, il is mockery on justice
to have a defendant Immediately upon
the verdict OF the jury being an
nounced, merely sign bond and go his
way as If nothing had happened. There
are times when this looseness of iu-
dicial proceedings breeds a spirit of
mob violence in the people. Good gov
eminent demands correction of this
condition. There is a statute on. the
books now that evidently aimed to &C
complish this result. but 1t has been
rendered nugatory by other statutes
and judicial constructions.
The corrupt legislator traffics In the
honor of sovereign people. The soul
OF the state is its honor. when that is
gone all is lost. Corruption costs in
civic honor; it costs in money, for ev-
cry dollar paid corrupt Official must
come out OF the people in one way or
another; above all. the cost of corrup-
ton is the inevitable decay of the gov
eminent where II is tolerated, and the
undermining Of the liberties of the
people.
Civic depravity can not exist IL the
people make up their minds not to per-
init ii. There is nothing so powerful
as public sentiment. There can be no
stronger organization than the hearts
and consciences Of the people. The
corruptionists can not stand before the
sentiment of just, intelligent and
aroused people. Let that opinion have
q free course; let 1t be pronounced in
thunder tones; let It open the ears Of
the deaf; let 1t open the eyes Of the
blind and let It everywhere be pro-
claimed what We Of this great state
think of the principle of civic right
eousness and of that corruption We alb
hor. Let the decree be announced and
enforced, that the corruptionists must
so.
The Butler weekly times. (Butler, Mo.) 1881-1918, 1903-09-17

ties Of the people would be undermined.
Official corruption is more dangerous
than other crimes, for it strikes at the
foundation of all law. The inevitable
cost of corruption is the decay of the
government where it is tolerated. This
has been so in all the worlds history.
The position that some take in refer
ence TO boodling, reminds one OF the
old darkey who said about the COM
mandments: "Yes, preacher, they are
right, but in this here neighborhood
the eighth commandment ought to be
taught with some 'discreetions.' The
command, Thou shalt not STEAL" ad-
mits of no exceptions. There can be
no compromise with public plunderers.
Un-elenting exposure and punishment
is the only honorable course. Public
corruption can not be stamped out by
gentle methods. Ii must be hit hard
whenever and wherever it shows itself.
Any pandering to Doodle influences
must be discountenanced by an honest
citizenship.
The corruptionists are strong. Let
us not deceives ourselves in
that point. They are resourceful
and will resort TO every means to give
themselves further opportunity. They
are well organized, but they are OPP
posed by the most powerful organiza-
ton in the world, the heart and con-
science of the people. The people OF
Missouri do not plead with corrup-
tionists; they have no favors to ask of
them. They defy them. With the man
hood of Missouri united in patriotic
effort, the things that have been dis
honored and oppressed, will be ami
hilated. Let us not be content until
this is accomplished. We are proud of
our splendid state, of its wonderful
progress and Of It's scourging of evil.
but there is more to be done. States,
like men, should 'never be satisfied but
ever strive to higher development. The
man who Is so self-satished as to pro-
claim himself industrious of improve
ment, is the one likely to need i'm
provement most. The citizen who does
not desire more civic morality proba-
bly, has a selfish interest in regarding
1t. Missouri, like man approaching
his prime. must go forward to its des-
tiny. When it has struck to the heart
that corruption which is its real foe,
the heights of achievement will be
climbed and the summit of attainment
reached,
The corruptonists have Toasted and
fattcned at the public expense for
years, but the handwriting has ap-
peared on the wall. They have been

Hot Retorts from prcnchers.

OF all the brilliant preachers OF
modern times no one shone more re-
splendcntly in conversation than the
eloquent Baptist minister, Robert
Hall. For all whining pietists, for all
oracular utterers of commonplace, all
anglers for praise, in the pulpit or
elsewhere, the great preacher had an
ineifable contempt. One day sickly,
querulous old man belonging to his
congregation met him in the street
and said: "Ah, Mr.. Hall, you have
never-been to see me, sir. I've--I've
I've been very i'll: I've bcen-at
deaths door, Mr.. Hail." "Why didn't
you step in?" was the quick response.
When asked for advice by a young
man who desired to enter the minis
try. and who gave as a reason that he
wished not to bury his talents in
napkin. Hall replied: "Thcn put
them in a pocket handkerchief, sir;
that will be large enough"

senator penrosc's queer Flush.

In Broad street hotel in Philadel-
phia Senator Quay and some friends
were in the habit Of sitting N at
regular weekly game of poker. at one
of which Senator Penrose, of Penn
sylvania, was mere lookcr-On. After
watching the game for an hour or
two the junior senator innocently re-
marked:
"Fellows, think l could play that
game if you'd make me out schedule
of points" They did so, and Penrose,
with the rules carefully written out
in front of him, took a hand. AS the
time for the jackpot approached one
of the players said:
I'll open for a dollar"
Penrose scanned his hand, then
looked carefully over the rules and
asked: whats all of one COLOR"
"A fush," he was told.
"I'll play" he observed.
The man who opened perfunctoriIy
bet chip, and, when the senator
raised, drew out.
Its all yours, Penrose," the latter
was told, and then,as he drew the pile
toward him, somebody added; Let's
see what you got, anyway"
They looked, found two diamonds
and three hearts. and sarcastically in
quired:
didn't you say you had fush?"
"No; you said it," replied Penrose
adding. ingenuously; II don't know
much about the game, you know, but
I rather like it."-Chicago Chronicle.

Close to the small, brick sChoolhouse. where
studied years ago,
II was the catchcrs backstop In our games OF
"onc old cat"
II saved him many weary chase by blocking each
wild throw
II bore a thousand lmprlnts made with knife,
and ball, and bat.
Old players went. new players came-the swift
years ran their race
Each leaving to the old red barn fresh scars upon
Its face.
And, o. the fights we used to haye' Each night
when school was out
The old barn was the rendezvous where gladia-
tors met
The scene OF many a smuggling match and well con
tested bout.
Enjoyed by every. youngs,er save the 'at,llng
teachers pet"
Among the schoolboys of to day there's little
nghtlng stock
They favor arbitration and are satisfied with talk
Tho old red barn has disappeared, and where II
used TO stand
A more pretentous structure meets a busy
thoroughfarc;
No urchns lingcr near II now no noisy. rompng

Where are the rough and tumble boys that CON

Gone, like the dear old landmark In whose shade
they loved to play
Gone. like the crimson sunset Of departed yes

The little red morocco shoe.
A-gap where babys toes peeped through
Here tiny pigs 10 market went
In tho old days OF sweet content.
The buttons dangling by thread
Once touched by fingers, with the dead
Each struggling one It brings 10 me
A perfume from life's sacristy.
This tiny shoe without heel
Where little piggies used 70 steal.
To me Is more than priceless gem
Plucked from royal diadem.
II brings from amaranthne shore
The face my loving eyes bent Ger;
1t brings. dear heaven! from the night.
Her kiss, her voice, her smiles delight.
All! what may not mother list
Whose ears are Bonded 90 the mist
That rises out OF shadow land
Made glad by the angelic band'
Their voices come on wings OF air
To greet her, patient, waiting there.
Enrapt with this morocco shoe
A gap where baby's toes peeped through.
There comes no sweetness like the song
or loves lnvisibles. who throng
The sacred cl0isters OF the heart.
Unknown TO all the world apart.
SO. may list the whispers soft.
Watt to me from the throne aloft-
All! only heard by me, the while
Ny mind recalls the baby's smile.

The Secret Of the sonnet.

Seom not the sonnet: with this useful pipe
Full many bard has got his board and bed.
Sperser It nourshcd; Mistress Browning fed
And saved poor Keats from hungcr's cruel gnpe
II paid for Tasso's burgundy and Snipc
Cooked Wordsworth's porrdge: buttered NIL
tons bread:
On Petrarch's board the fine spaghetti spread
And stewcd for Shakespeare his delicious tHpe
Scorn not the sonnet, though with words DER
fraught,
That tedious fall from the laborous stub.
With lingering dalliance In cXtcnso wrought
BY the poor poet pinng for his grub.
Who with one lean and lonesome line OF thought.
For fourteen lines of verse can charge his pub.
