Competition is more than the "lif9 of trade;" it is the spirit of progress, and in no one line of endeavor is this better exemplified than in clothes for men. For years the so-caIled ready made kept to dead level of mediocrj- ty; on probation, practically, and sell ing because of it's convenience and low price. Within the last few years, however, competition has engendered wonderful progress in the designing and tailoring of ready-for-wear clothes. Fabulous salaries are paid to the king bee designers, and tailoring talent of the highest order has been developed through specialization at each step of the process of manufacture. To-day Meigs & Go. present their line of spring and summer clothes as examples of the highest achievement in clothes making, and claim for their best lines that they are "better than custom made" In lit, in style, in careful tailoring and in workmanship which preserves shape, these clothes of Meigs & Go. betoken the new era in ready for-wears for men. They extend an invitation to all men who may be skeptical of the attachments of mod ern ready-tailoring to see their cloth- ing and put 1t to every test.

EoLK TO JEROME.

Governor Folks reply to District At
torney Jerome's statement that the
prosecutions of the boodIers in Mis-
souri, brought the law into disrepute
and did no good was altogether to the
point. Mr.. Jerome had commented in
the same talk, on the number of rever-
sails secured by bOodIers convicted in
trial courts. Governor Folk in his re-
ply said that the benefits of a cru
sade against bribery cannot be meas
uTed by the number of men in stripes.
The awakening of the public conscience
to the necessity Of stamping out the
Offense that strikes at the heart of free
government was the main thing accom-
plished.'
It is quite true, as Governor Folk said
later in his interview, that lawyers can
always be found who will raise tech
nicaI objections TO placing rich hood
lers in prison and that it is harder for
the traditional camel to pass through
the needles eye than to put in the pen
itentiary a rich man who has committed
offenses against the public. That, how
ever, should not constitute a reason for
lack of effort on the part of prosecut-
ing attorneys. If the laws are so
framed as to afford undue protection for
the criminal that is assuredly not the
fault of the district attorneys.
II is their duty to collect all the evil
dence possible, to present it in the most
convincing form, and to secure convic-
tions if possible. Their work ends
when. after they have done everything
possible to satisfy the jury of a de-
PENDANTS guilt, the jury returns its YER
dict. II is not for them to rail against
the law. They are sworn to enforce
the laws as they find them. not to make
laws, although it is within their prov
ince to suggest to legislators reform leg
islation that may seem to them desir-
able
As between Governor Folk and Dis
trict Attorney Jerome the public Will
unhesitatingly side with the Missouri
executive Jerome has always been long
on promises and short on performance.
The story of Folks life shows exactly
opposite conditions. Folk doesn't go
around with a trumpet telling What he
is going to do and then forgetting TO do
it. He usually does things and then, if
any question arises, his record is there
to speak for itself.

BADGES FOR "ToTERS."

Every gentleman who totes" a pis-
toll in Louisiana VIII, if a bill that is
now under 0nsideration by the Legis-
IatUre becomes a law, be required to
wear an aluminium badge not less than
two inches in diameter and inscribed
with the word pistol in letters as
large as the badge viii carry. Any per
son over the age OF 81 years who has
never been convicted Of a felony or d
misdemeanOr may. upon application 70
the sheriff of his county and the pay
ment of a license fee of SO per annUm
and 81 for a badge, obtain the right to
carry a revolver.
The purpose Of the law is, of course,
to discourage the habit of carrying
concealed deadly weapons-a practice
that every state is most DESTROYS Of
breaking up Comparatively few men
would care to GO about advertising the
fact that they were carrying a revolver.
They might as we'll proclaim them
selves towards or hoodlums and be
done with it. The Louisiana badge
should, indeed, be amended to make the
inscription read coward" instead of
pistol" for the man who habitually
carries q revolver is certainly cow
ard.
There doubtless was a time. especial
Iy in the west, when a revolver was
as necessary an article of personal ap-
parel for the male inhabitant as a hat.
But in those old days the TevOlveTs
were not carried concealed. On the
contrary. they were displayed very
prominently. They were carried where
their possessors could get at them in
Jig time, and there was never any tell
ing when they would be needed very
badly indeed. The day for that sort of
thing has passed in the west, though,
Just as 1T has passed in practically ev-
err. section Of the republic, The ordi-
nary man today doesn't need d revolver
i'm his everyday occupation any more
than he need four feet or six hands
The Louisiana bill, If enacted into
law. will not have the effect Of end
ing the habit of carrying concealed
weapons. The towards who want TO
carry them. who insist on having that
advantage in any difficulty in which
they become engaged, will continue TO
carry them, and they viii not wear any
badges, either. The surest way to get
at the pistol carrier is TO make the
practice a felony, punishable by i'm
prisonment in a penitentiary. And then
the law should be enforced to the limit
in every instance.
