Governor Folk Would Begin 1t by.
Eliminating the Man Who
"PIays the Ponies"
ABOLISH THE BOOK, HE SAYS
Wants It Made Radical Crime to
Lay Money in Missouri on
Horse Racing Any
where.

Jefferson City, Mo, Feb. s.. Govern
or Joseph w. Folk has forwarded to
both houses of the legislature a special
message dealing chiefly with legisla-
ton affecting the proposed repeal of
the breeders law, which licenses book
makers to sell pools in certain en-
closures, the fee going to the support
Of the state fair Governor Folk urges
the amendment of the breeders law
so as to eliminate the licensing Of
gambling by the state. 'The breeders
law" Governor Folk says in his mes
sage, enacted in 1899, forbids under
penalties the selling Of pools on horse
races except within certain enclosures
and is a good law as far as it goes,
but it does not go far enough! If pool
selling is an evil thing it should not
be permitted at ALL
Governor Argues the Case.
Stripped of its useless yeribage
this act levies tribute upon gambling
upon theresults of horse racing: in this
respect it is indefensible from any
moral standpoint If it be argued
that men will gamble and that the
state might as well profit by their lust
for the game it could with equal force
be argued that men will kill, and there
fore the state should license murder
in certain forms and in certain places,
50 as to profit by this weakness. Of
mankind.
Calls Attention to a Fact.
''This is not the demand of a frenzied
morality but of a sound and healthy
public sentiment. It must be kept in
mind, however, that the repeal of the
breeders law in its entirety would al
low pool rooms to run unrestrained as
there was previous to this law no
statute prohibiting them
Makes Some Recommendations.
II recommend that thelawbe amend
Ell by striking out the license features
or if repealed altogether the enactment
Of law prohibiting pool selling any
where in the state on horse races, run
either within or without the state. In
order that the state fair may not suf-
fer by losing the revenue I recommend
that an amount equal to the income
now derived from the licensing Of pool
selling be appropriated for the main
tenance of the state fair"

An EXPLANATION

Ed Times i write you to set
ourselves right with our friends
in Mo Valley in regard to our
children visiting in that city
last week. AS my husband is
guaranteed with an attack Of
the small pox we fear our
friends will think we sent the
children to Mo. Valley to escape
the disease. The facts are the
children went to Mo. Valley be-
fore it was known the small poX
was in our family. AS soon as
Mr.. Craft was quarantined |
brought the children home, We
can assure the people of Mo.
Valley that there is no possible
danger of the small pox being
taken from our childrens visit,
as the disease had not develop
ed on Mr.. Craft when they
left this city. Hoping this will
assure our friends that we are
entirely innocent in the matter,
| am respectfully
Mrs. Robert Craft.

Mary Richards bowers.

Mary E. Richards was born at Vevy,
Switzerland County, Indiana, March Z,
1896, and died near Putnam, Oklaho-
ma, February IL, 1905, aged 6S years.
The deceased grew to womanhood
amidst pioneer surroundings and was
educated at private school kept for
Young ladies by her grandmother
While always gentle and loving in dis
position, she had inherited the spirit of
the pioneer, and was as brave and
fearless as gentle She early in life
expressed her faith in Christ and united
with the church in 1854. At the age
of IS she moved with her parents to
Muscatine, Iowa, and on December %,
1858, was united in marriage to Will
lam bowers.
She had been sufferer and almost
an invalid for several years, but pa
tiently endured all pain. Loving rela-
tives and kind friends watched tenderly
over her during her last illness. There
was no suffering or pain at the close of
her life. She simply fell into gentle
and peaceful sleep, to awaken in the
great Eternity to dwell with the Savior
whom she had loved and served for
fifty-one years.
She had selected the hymns to be
used at her funeral service, and this
Scripture: 81 am the resurrection and
the life. He that believeth in me,
though he were dead, yet shall he live"
What blessed message to be left by
Mother!
Besides many friends she leaves a
husband and four children, Emerson

and Mrs. Edward Friend. She also
leaves two sisters and four brothers,
three of. whom are ministers of the
Gospel.

A Bad Situation.

The Carroll Herald last week
contained a half-page display
advertisement for Montgomery
Ward & Co., of Chicago. In
comment upon it the Herald
says: eve should prefer to
run home advertisements, but
advertising space is a portion
of our stock in trade and so
long as there is no home demand
for it we cannot afford to re-
fuse it's sale to outsiders. We
get regular advertising rates
for the space occupied and the
contract for four weeks brings
more money than we have re-
ceived for five years from any
home concern engaged in the
line of business herein adver-
tised. There is not a town in
Iowa the size OF Carroll where
dealers are doing so little ad-
vertising, notwithstanding the
fact thaa TO town has a better
set of newspapers. Under the
circumstances, we have no
apology to offer for publishing
the advertisement of a mail
order house"
The Bulletin is pleased that
Denison is no such town as Car
roll, and that most of our
merchants believe in going
after the home paper instead
of letting the catalogue houses
have the field. The Bulletin
has no space left for city cat
alogue houses, although their
offers to us are strong ones.
We are a home paper.-Deni-
son Bulletin.
The Daily Times has an offer
from a mail order house for a
large amount of advertising on
q yearly contract, but we can
not see our way clear to accept
it. The merchants of Missouri
Valley are the backbone Of the
community financially and we
believe they should receive the
patronage Of the people of this
vicinity. We believe the mer-
chants can and should sell
goods as cheap as the mail
order houses that is, good re-
liable goods and as they pay
the taxes to help support the
city and county we believe they
should be given the preference
of the patronage of our citizens.
The mail order houses never
extend credit to a customer
who has met with reverses.
They don't care if a man has
lost his crop and needs help
until he can raise another crop.
With them it is CASH OR NO
GOODS. The home merch-
ants are not that way. If
the farmer is unfortunate and
needs help, he comes to the
home merchant who gladly ex-
tends him credit until he can
get onto his feet again. The
mail order house will not do
that. While the home merch-
ant does not make as systematic
an effort for business in the
way Of advertising as the mail
order house does, we still think
we will stick to the home merch-
ant and not advertise the mail
order honse, believing that the
home merchant will yet see the
