Col. Iiawes' Hannibal Speech.

Cornlpius Roach, in his Jasper
County Democrat, sums up Har.
ry Hawcs' Hannibal speech, as
follows:
''Whatever Col. Harry Halves
said in his Hannibal speech, or
elsewhere, or whatever he may
say Of Mr.. Folk up to date, will
not have any injurious effect on
the famous circuit attorney.
"Mr. HAYES fails TO form any
correct conception Of Missouri
democracy outside Of st. Louis.
The more the well known politi-
clans Of ST. Louis attack Folk,
the more they charge against
him, the higher goes his stock.
"Mr. Halves, in his Hannibal
speech, has done more for Mr..
Folk than Mr.. Folk could do for
himself in the same time. Whcr-
ever Mr., Hawcs may deliver his
speech out in the state he will do
more good for Folk than Folk
would do by delivering his speech
in the same place. One of the
primary reasons for Folks now
having Il lead pipe cinch on the
gubernatOrial nomination is the
attitude Of the st. Louis pOliti-
clans toward Folk. Every move.
mcnt that Mr., HaWes has made
has been n help to Folk. If he
were as smart as he is reported
TO be, and as his friends all be.
Iicve him to DC, and Is opposed to
Folk, he would have remained as
silent as he was when away in
Europe. II" cannot realize that
by favoring Folk ne would do him
the most injury. This is why
he has no conception OF the Mis-
souri, SituatlOE outside Of St.
Louis.

does not realize what estimate

In his recent speech ut Sedalia
Joseph W. Folk advised all good
Democrats to take an active part
in selecting men to represent
them, both locally and in state
office. This advice should be
needed, too. Political matters
have been left in the hands Of Il
few selfish ringsters TO q de.
gree in local affairs that cliques
have come to imagine that their
states must never be broken, even
if questionable characters run the
thing by high handed treachery,
the leaders always feathering
their own nests, while q majority
of the voters scarcely realized
how the schemes have been ma.
nipulated. From this style of
political Juggling has sprung this
Doodle element. Ii is high time
for the honest elements to take
matters into their own hands and
assert their rights as American
citizens and to see that the rights
Of our people are respected. Go
to conventions, take part and see
that political trickery is sheIved.
There is no other way.

Halves Versus Mcleod.

Several papers took occasion
to roast N. W. Mcleod, secretary
of the Business Mems League of

sending out what they termed u
"presumptuous letter" to coun.

of the voters of the state in favor
of Folk for Governor, and out.

ANCIENT EGYPT.
Much History Gathered from a Single Site,
Abydos

The continuation of the work Of the Egypt Ex-
ploraton Fund at Abydos this year has given a
wider view of the early civilization, of which the
general lines had been fixed by the previous work
on the royal tombs and the town writes Professor
Flinders Petrie to The London Times" The clear
ance OK the old temple site over several acres has
brought TO light, in a depth of about twenty feet
no less than ten successive temples ranging in age
from about 5000 to 500 3. c. For the first time we
can see on one spot the changes from age to age
through the whole Of Egyptian history To separate
these buildings was affair Of anatomy rather
than spade work; the walls Of mud brick were so
commingled with the soil that incessant section
cutting with a sharp knife was the only way to
discriminate the brick work. Often only a single
course of bricks thin bed OF foundation sand
was all that told Of the great buildings which had
existed here for centuries. over five thousand
measurements were taken for the plans and levels
The main result regards the religion is that
Osiris not the original god Of Abydos: the
jackal god. Upuaut and then the god OF the West
khentamenti, were honored here down to the
twelfth dynasty The most striking chance is seen
about the fourth dynasty. when the temple was
abolished, and only a great hearth Of burned
Offering is found fun Of vOtive clay substitutes for
sacrifices. This exactly agrees with the account Of
Herodotus that Cheops had closed the temples and
forbidden sacrifices. This Undertaking OF history
IS made the more real by finding an ivory statuette
OF CheOps OF the finest work which shows for the
builder and organizer who made Egyptian govern
years after. This carving is in the Cairo
Museum.

NEW SAYINGS OF JESUS

Fund here. yesterday. gave the following details:
Accompanied by Dr. Hunt DR. Grenfen found a

Of the documents from one mound consisted Of

wondering, he shall reach the kingdom Il. e., the
kingdom Of heaven). and when he reaches the
kingdom he shall have rest
DR.. GrenfeH remarked that enormous interest
would be aroused by the discoveries. account Of
the variations they disclosed from accepted texts
One variant OF the mystical saying, recorded In
st. Luke ''the kingdom Of God is within you
was Of great value. the saying in the papyrus
appeared in quite different surroundings from those
attributed TO IL By the Evangelist, and extended
far into another region.
According TO DR.. GrenfelI. these sayings formed
the Gospel which is additionally associated
with St Thomas.
An interesting variation of the Gospel according
to st. Luke xi, 80 Woe unto you lawyers; for
ye have taken away the key Of knowledge; ye
entered not in yourselves and them that were en-
tering in ye hlndered." reads in the papyrus:
'Ye have hidden the key OF knowledge; We en-
tered not yourselves and to them that were en-
tering in We did not open"
Another fragment contained a discourse Of
Christ, closely related to passages OF the Sermon
on the Mount. and a conversation between Christ
and His Disciples. in which Christ answers a ques-
ton as to when His kingdom will be realized
saying:
When We return to the state Of innocence which
existed before the fall"
A valuable find was made in papyri, written in
Latin, giving the text of the Epistle to the He

This with other papvri covering the period 80

ton on the history Of the world and marked the
recovery Of hitherto lost classical literature Of
Egypt.
