THE state tax IA G of Missouri is
i8 cents on the S100 valuation, the
Illinois rate tax rate is 50 cents,
the state tax rate in Kansas is 81.
Read this and see how these
rates compare. Missouri, "poor
ridden Missouri" has the low
est rate of taxation OF any state in
the Union. Isn't it really amusing
to see these little yelping Republic
can sheets bowling about "poor,
tax-ridden old Missouri" "?-AHon

And how about some of the
"yelping" yellow sheets unjustly
criticising the state administra-
ton, from whence all this low tax
alton comes? Notwithstanding the
legacy of S22,000,000 debt found on
the state when the democrats went
into power in 1870. And above all,
consider carefully the splendid
public school system Missouri has ;
old republican states are copying
after progressive Missouri. Some
'machines" are very useful. All
organizations can easily be brand

hundred! He says the first meet

BOTH Missouri Senators voted
for the ratification of the so-called
''treaty with Panama. Conceived
in sin and brought forth in in
iquity as the whole canal matter
was, yet but twelve Democratic
Senators were Democratic enough
to vote against it's consummation.
Truly the Almighty Dollar and its
high priests, the Boards of Trade
and the Business interests, are
irresistible in this day of grab.
Might makes right, and the most
arrant thievery is but despoiling
of the Egyptians. Yet, let us not
forget that in the mutations OF
time, some day our children may
be evoluted into Egyptians. Then
the grave and reverend and right
eous Senators who make laws for
them will cry aloud in bitterness
of heart, to which the response of
the despoiler will be, "the villainy
you have taught me | will execute"
If he bemean his mightiness to
response Of any kind. Iwould like
to know by what rule of Scripture
or common justice Senator Cock
rell reconciles his vote for the
canal treaty with his conscience.
To me the whole affair, from start
to finish, is so stained with wrong
and outrage against the weak and
helpless people of a sister Republic
that either the God of Justice rules
no more or terrible retribution
must await us. All the canals and
all the commerce of the world can
not justify the thing this govern
ment has done any more than my
] neighbor could palliate his crime

THE Hon. Jos. w. Folk says
"We are trying to get to the peo-
pie; the machine is trying to keep
away from the people," Was he
trying to get to the people last Sat-
urday week when his henchmen of
the st. Louis County Central Com
mittee refused to let Democrats
except a chosen few of his own ad-
herents-know where the township
primaries were to be held? Was
he trying to get to the people when
he bolted the Democratic ticket in
Tennessee in 1892? Was he trying
to get to the people when he bolted
the Democratic tickets in Missouri
in 1902 and 1903? He was certainly
trying to get to the people during
the campaign of 1900 when he was
himself candidate, but he then
was hand-in-glove with the ''ma-
chine" because his selfish interests
lay that way. But when fraud was
charged in his election he tried to
get away from the people by using
/ a legal technicality to prevent a
! recount of the ballots. He was
sticking mighty close to the "ma-
chine" then. If he is such peo-
pies man, why didn't he then seek
their will, and that only, even if
his own election was involved? If
he loves and trusts the people, why
does he ask that his juries be made
special" ignoring in his adminis-
tration of law the low -salaried
clerk and the wearer of blue-drill-
ing overalls? The especial jury"
law is un-American and a disgrace
to the State, but it seems to be the
only statute under which this self
righteous candidate has hope of Sc
securing convictions. When he
tried Ed. Butler the second time, at
Fulton, he again asked for a "spe-
cial" jury, but the Judge bluntly
told him the ordinary panel would
have to serve his purpose. The
verdict of that jury, under the law
and the evidence, was a righteous
verdict, even if it did pull Joseph's
tail-feathers.. He failed when he
got down to the people, just as he
deserves to fail now, and will fail,
despite his cajoling utterances. He
can't fool them all, nor sufficient
number of them to secure the nom
ination for Governor Of the great
and Democratic State of Missouri.
