REGARDING THE BUTTER sTArU

No Truth In Reports that Butter
Statue Of President Roosevelt was
Melting Away.
St. Louis, August 23.-The foolish
story in St. Louis paper about the
butter statue of President Roosevelt
in the North Dakota dairy display is
utterly without truth or foundation
and must have originated in a demo-
cratic mind that sought to ridicule
the nations head. The statue stands
in refrigerator where the tempera-
ture is never higher than 20 degrees,
so it is an impossibility for anything
to melt in there, therefore none of the
North Dakota representatives have
ever given moments worry on that
score or mentioned such a thing to q
living soul. The suggestion for the
story probably arose from the fact that
the state manager was dissatisfied
with the first statue made because it
was miserable piece of work and
was in everyway unsatisfactory and
impossible to make 1t so. Therefore,
in accordance with the right reserved
by Gov. Bartlett In the contract, the
statue was not accepted and the con-
tract given to a sculptor Of known
ability, a graduate Of one of the best
are schools in Paris, F. Fl. Frolich of
New York, who has just completed a
piece of work that is receiving great
praise and that is credit to the
state. As a result of the governors
refusal to accept the first disreputable
figure the contractor has sued Gov.
Bartlett, much to the amusement of
everybody familiar with the matter,
all agreeing that under his contract
the party has not the ghost of a
chance OF recovering a cent.
During the time he was awaiting
the return of Governor Bartlett Mr..
Frolich modelled in North Dakota but
ter bust of the president to show
what he could do. The work was so
fine that the management of the agri-
culture division of the fair asked and
was given the privilege of exhibiting
the bust with those already made of
Lincoln, Grant and Cleveland in
prominent part of the general butter
display
Minnesota has beautiful piece Of
work in butter being a representation
of the discovery Of st. Anthony falls
by Father Hennepin. The falls are
shown and above them in canoe are
the lifesize figures of Father Hennepin
in the bow. an Indian in the middle
and a frontiersman in the stern, the
last two padding the frail bark. It
is the work Of Frank Daniels of st.
Paul, the young man who made the
soldiers monument at Grafton. It is
the general opinion that the contest
for first prize lies between these two
pieces.
After long dry spell the last three
days has given us enough rain to float
ships in the low places Dampness
reigns supreme everywhere and I
missed the comfort OF a pipe last
night because the tobacco on my
bureau had absorbed too much Of the
general wetness. and the bed sheets
stuck to me like long lost brother.
Americans must be getting real

done In the open. Some put up an argu-
ment that they do not wish to vote right
out in meeting because of making busi-
ness enemies. II they think more Of their
business than serving the people to the
best interests they should have stayed at
home and let those with a little backbone
tackle the affairs OF state.
Secret balloting is not going to be
foisted on us at Jefferson City. and I want
to make the prediction that every caucus
in the selection Of officials will be open.
There are enough of us not ashamed OF
our votes. I think, to have open meet
ings, and I know that all of the candidates
who want to line up squarely in this mat
ter favor no gum-shoe balloting."
Politicians and Missouri editors began to
head toward st. Joseph last night to at
tend the Republican State Editorial Asso-
ciation Convention. Thomas X Niedring-
haus left his headquarters about 5 p. M.
as did several others. r. C. Kerens also
bade adieu to his many managers and
clerks and headed for the gathering place.
L. F. Parker stated that he could not get
away.
Before leaving. Niedr.nghaus sat contem-
plating a stack OF mail in front of him.
His smile grew broader as he counted the
letters. They were not for publication"
he said, but when he had gone one OF his
strong supporters said that they would
make good reading" They were answers
from the first letters that Niedringhaus
has sent out to the men with votes who
will sit in the caucus. He addressed them
last Monday. and reetn-S--- -ho -o--.---c

Ing to the constituents to know how the
members voted on both questions. The
law requires that legislation must not be
by secret ballot and many members say
that 1t is just as essential for clean poll
tics that the selection of gil officers by
caucus should be equally as free from
closed doors. Lucid explanations might
then follow sudden changes of heart
Several conferences among those inter-
ested have been held. and it was stated
yesterday by one who has been a prime
mover in the matter that all caucuses will
be open. 1t Is also known that David w.
Hill of Butler. and Alonzo Tubbs OF Gas
conade, two of the candidates for the
speakership. are heartily in favor Of an
open caucus. Both come from the anti
Kerens ranks
A G. Pettijohn OF Linn. 1t Is said, does
not favor the open voting so strongly. The
Kerens forces will be aligned behind him
for the speakershp, ard open caucuses are
far from being pc. hobby with the
former National Committeeman.
AN open caucus for both the speaker
ship and senatorship is the only course to
pursue" said Senator Gardner yesterday,
'snd any one who wants secret balloting
should be called upon to explain why. 1
certainly want my constituents to know
what I am doing. and hope that 1 will
never do anything of which would be SO
ashamed as to want to go behind closed
doors to do it.
"Exponents Of secret balloting draw
suspicion TO themselves. and the selection
of officers is just as important as max

TT is urged that the city thereby. in its

Tho Judge then cited decisions Of the

C. NJ Harrison arrived yesterday from
Gallatin. Mo. coming by way of Jefferson
City. He consulted with party leaders in
three or four counties on the way and says
that the sentiment among the rank and
file of the party is largely for T. X. Med
ringhaus.
He says he heard many expressions Of
commendation on the attitude OF T. J.
Atkins for his Endorsement Of Niedring-
haus. "Akins's statement is regarded by
Republican workers generally as empha-
sizing the position taken early by the ad
vocates Of Niedringhaus, that all factions
of the party could be united upon his can
didacy. and has resulted in popular con-
viction that he will be nominated on the
