We shall be happy to cooperate In this

Folk and Reform.

A dispatch from Jefferson City says:
Gov. Joseph Folk last night sent a tele-
gram declining an invitation to speak In
New York city, extended by persons inter-
ested In the candidacy of District Attorney
Jerome for reelection. In his telegram the
governor said:
81 appreciate most sincerely your kindly
intent and the compliment of the invitation.
From such high source the invitation Is en-
titled to. and has received careful consider
alton 1t is with much regret l find that
by reason of my official duties 1t will be
impossible for me to accept.
This. IT will be observed. Is very carefully
drawn. 1t expresses no sympathy with the
Jerome movement, no wish for Mr.. JerOme's
success. The good work in New York might
have been aided by letter from Gov. Folk
applaudlng Mr.. Jerome's official record and
his stand against corrupt bossism. Next
TO a visit TO the city in person. that would
have been the best means of testifying to
an interest in reform for New York. 1t Is
regrettable that the idea did not occur to
Gov Folk. If he is as solicitous for sound
government In New York as in Philadelphia
Mayor Weaver's case appealed very
strongly to Gov. Folk by reason of it's SINH
lerty to his own case. AS district attorney
OF st. Louis he, as Mayor Weaver has done,
turned, in the interest ofthe people, against

He would not close his eyes to outrages and
crimes committed by men who had put him

and broke their power. He must have re-
sponded, therefore. with great pleasure to
the invitation to visit Philadelphia and as
sist good man engaged in kindred I'M

he owes II nothing. The agencies that put

There would have been a certain courage
ana consistency in going from Philadelphia,

pity that Gov. Folk found himself unable

Americans on all positions, so that the

And would It not be well for the Philip
pines to be represented? Chinese immigra-
ton IS of very great interest there also and
the feeling of the Filipnos against the cool
les is quite as strong as we find it elsewhere
As matter of fact. men of distinction and
observation have expressed the opinion af-

mission of the Chinese to the archipelago
would be attended by the unhappiest of
consequences. We should simply add to our
own difficulties there as well to those of
our wards and SOW the seeds not only of

If Secretary Taft or Governor Wright were
consulted doubtless a Philippine delegation
TO the conference would be appointed.
This is a very important question. 1t
would be greatly to the country's advantage
If Congress could be induced to legislate
on the whole subject of immigration. Abuses
Of a grave character exist and for many
years we have been receiving into the coun-
try some very undesirable people from
across the Atlantic. But there are policies
which make the politicians a little tender
footed about approaching the subject broad
ly and we shall probably have to walt for
some unexpected and undersigned event to
produce the desired correction.
The Chinese end of 1t, however, Is neither
terrifying nor difficult. Everybody Is on
record as to that, and is willing to go
again. and as Congress is to take it up next
winter the fuller the canvass of the subject
before then the better 1t will be for every

Morphine has its uses in medicine, but the
