The Governor is quoted as hav-
ing said that Missouri had tried
State ownership once and that
it cost the state $25, 900, 900.
The State never tried State
ownership and it did not cost
that amount of money. The
state was interested as cred

them. The Republicans and
carpet. t.baggers who then had
the State by the throat sold

the indebtedness against them

State with a $50, ,OO0, 900 iudebt-

The Globe Democrat mistakes
the sentiment of white Repub-
