There is not room for the slightest
doubt that the work of constructing

Eskridge and Council Grove, will begin

I went over in detail the preliminary

Fan work in the Garden.

October is really the best month in
the year to set out and transplant such
plants as the poeny. This grand old
flower is generally put out in spring,
after its roots have begun the work Of
the season, and whatever disturbance
they get then affects them more than
an any other time throughout the year
But if they are planted in fall, while
they are, to a certain extent. dormant
the work of the season being fully
completed, they do not receive so Sc
we're q check. It Is impossible to
transplant the peony at any season
without interfering with it in way
that it resents, but during the spring
months It is peculiarly sensitive.
If old plants are to be transplanted,
dig them up with as much soil as can
be retained about them, and put them
into their new quarters as soon as pos
sible If the eiump IS an old and large
one it can be separated and made into
several plants. In dividing it, I would
never advise tearing or breaking the
roots apart as IS generally done. for.
in doing this, nearly all of them viii
be loosened or exposed I would cut
them apart with a thin-bladed sharp
spade. In doing this. many roots will
be mutilated. no matter how carefully
one works, but less harm viii be done
by it than by an attempt to divide the
clump IN any other way.=Eben E.
Rexford, in The Home Magazine for

Folk Politician,

Ollie Roberts, the most notorious
courJesan, thief and murderess
ever known in st. Louis, has been
pardoned by Governor Folk, at
the request of Mr.. Maroney, that
she might testify against certain
members of the police force. And
who, pray, would accept the testi-
mony of such a woman as against
the word of a reputable officer?
When she has testified, what is to
hinder her from again entering
upon a career of debauchery and
crime? Did the Governor have
this contingency in mind when
the pardon was issued. or did he
let political considerations out
weigh the moral aspect TO the re-
lease of such a hardened criminal?
There is food for thought in the
Observation-Disclosures Missourian.

DISCOVERY OF SALT LAKE.
Jim Bridger Was Finder of Great Pool
Nothing Could Hold Secret
from This Trapper.

Jim Bridger stands forth as the
most. conspicuous figure of the
brief but glorious reign of the
trapper and trail-maker in the far
west, says Outing Magazine. The
greatest fur-hunter and the great,
est pathfinder of them all, and
possessing the most intimate
knowledge of the Indian nature
ever vouchsafed a white man,
Bridger will grow in stature as
time goes on and accurate history
is written.
No part Of the great Rocky
mountain country ever held a Sc
cret from Jim Bridger. He was
the first white man, after John
Golfer, to view the wonders of Vel
lOwstOne Park, and the first to
look on Great Salt lake. Seeming
~ bearing a charmed life, he wan
dered through the lands of many
Indian tribes, sometimes fighting
the red men, but more often living
their life and finding the solace Of
true brotherhood at the lodge fire.
Every mountain Jim Bridger
climbed, every stream he crossed,
and every game trail he followed,
was written down in the most mar
velous memory ever granted a
plainsman. AS a result, years lat
er, when the white men, bold but
laundering, sought the easiest
paths over the mountains, Jim
Bridger showed them the best
trails for their wagons; and, when
the chief engineer of the Union
Pacific had well-nigh given up
hope of getting his rails across the
Divide, it was Jim Bridger who
showed an available pass which
he had traversed years before in
his trapping days, and the exist
ence of which no other white man
knew. A few months ago, this
chief engineer, Gen. Grenville M.
Dodge, showed his gratitude by
rescuing Jim Bridger's body from
a neglected grave and ~interring il
at Kansas City under an appropri-
ate mOnument-probably the
first act of gratitude ever per-
formed for the man who had put
the whole empire of the west in
his debt.

WANTED-A NEW SLOGAN

By a unanimous vote the Re-
publican State Committee has
decided to hold an early State
Convention, and to be the first in
the field with a ticket and plat
form.
This step is in keeping with the
dominant position of the Republic
can party in Missouri. 1t is also
fully along the lines of diplomacy
since the fall election is to be won
or lost on state issues.
The Democrats are trusting to
Gov. Folks pose as the champion
of law and order, and are tryin G
in every way possible to make
Missourians forget that for thirty
years Democracy has laughed at
law and order, has championed
misrule and governed the state to
suit it's own hest interests. The
Folk plan for the coming cam
paign was to hold the first con
vention and to plaster the Demo-
cratic platform with law-and-
order declarations. BY this means
it was expected to put the Repub-
licans on the defensive.
The State Committees action
has set the Folk plan all awry.
The Republican party's platform
will be announced before the DEM
ocrats convene. 1t will be based
on law and order, of course ,::since
the party has built its greatness
by it's regard for law and it's steady
fight for the rights of thes people.
so the Folk cry OF law enforce
ment will only be an echo after
all, and the Democrats will have
to find another slogan if. they
would be original.
But what slogan can they::fnd ?
Under Republican rule, in spite of
Folks cratic handling of the
highest office, the state has PROS
pered and confidence has been
restored. What cry of the Folk
ties could be potent enough, there
fore to persuade the people to
demand a change or to renounc g
present conditions to bring back
misrule.
