CIPHER MARKS UNPOPULAR.

"The cipher price mark, the tag

said a jeweler. "The public mis-
trusts it. There is nothing that
wins the confidence of the public like
a price mark in big, plain figures.

PREVENTS SHIPS ROLLING.

A German engineer claims to have
discovered an efficient method Of
preventing the violent motion of a
ship at e a The invention consists
of a kind of turbine fitted vertically
to the ships keel. When set in mo-
ton the turbine c%ounteracts the
ships tendency to roll from side to
side. An old torpedo boat was fitted
with the apparatus for a trial trip in
rough weather off the mouth of the
Elbe. The ship rolled to the extent
of nine degrees, but after the turbine
was set in motion she only rolled one
degree. The result was attained
without any reduction of seaworthi-
ness and the ships buoyancy was I'M

Don't Blame Niedringhaus.

Don't blame T. K. Niedringhaus
for the slump in the Republican
vote in Missouri in the last cleo
ton. Over-considence did the
devilment. Too many republic
cans relied on "Tom" to do more
than Lies within human power.
There is no question that Missouri
is-we are not going to say Re
publican or Observation-Disclosures
full.
If the full Republican vote had
been cast in the out-in-the- woods
counties, the result would have
been quite different. But the pro-
per thing to do now is to work for
the success ofthe party in 1908, and
the unwarranted criticism of the
state chairman is poor politics.
Niedringhaus did infnetely more
to make Missouri Republican than
those who have tried to belittle
his efforts in the last campaign.
Organization means success. No
man in Missouri will dispute that
Niedringhaus has placed the af-
fairs of the G.. .. P. in this state
in better shape than any of his
predecessors. He has produced
record breaking results, and the
rank and file of Missouri Republic
cans will remember the name
"Niedringhaus" long after the
"knockers" are forgotten.-Clay-
ton Waterman Advocate.

OLD SIGNS.

In some old plates by Hogarth a
cookshop is advertised by a head of
John the Baptist, and in another
plate the BARRIERS sign is not only a
colored pole, but also a hand draw
ing a tooth from a patients head,
who, judging by the expression of
his face, seems to be suffering ex-
quisite pain. Beneath this grimac-
ing visage is the inscription, "Shav-
ing, bleeding and teeth drawn with
a touch"
A sign common to oil shops was
"The good woman" viz, a female
without a head. The cynical mean
ing here is plain.
Nowadays along the coast, oyster
or fishing vessels which wish to make
known the fact that they are selling
their hauls hoist a broom to the
masthead. This signel is known to
all watermen.
An amusing sign was that of the
'"Three Loggerheads," that is, two

gend, "Here wee loggerheads three

must confess to an innocent the
equivalent of imbecility. In what
state in the American union has
the governor the power to set aside
the duly elected representatives of
the people in their own countiesp
Have the voters of Missouri de-
generated to such a point that they
have neither the good sense %
the good morals necessary to
elect their own prosecuting at
torneysp But we have ''call.d the
turn" We have been predicting
for years that the Democratic state
machine would not be satisfied
with it's CONTROL of the large cities,
through state machine appointed
boards, and that sooner or later it
would extend its grab to the coun-
ties. If Governor Folks PROPOSE
tons, to permit the Governor to
appoint special prosecuting at
torneys and a state excise COM
missioner, do not mean the en-
largement of the Governors ma
chine, what do they meanP If
Folk did not use the machines in
creased power as Governor for
Folk and against the people, what
assurance have the people that the
next Governor would not do so?
And, by the way, is any PROPOSE
ton to centralize power in the
hands of one man Democratic? Is
it "%bringing the government
nearer the people," or nearer the
Governor who appoints the gov
ernmentP The pretext of enlarg-
ing the Folk machine to down the
liquor traffic is too thin. The
rural citizens of Missouri may
favor temperance and law en-
forcement as good christian peo-
pie, but they are not so "green'
that they will permit the man who
nominated himself by denouncing
the Dockery state machine system
to build up a Folk state machine
larger than Dockery or Stephens
ever dreamed of.--Missouri State

Folk Wants a Larger State
Machine.

Most people try prohibition
when the liquor interests become
too powerful. Gov. Folk believes
Missouri has a better plan. He
found the saloons running wide
open Sunday, the brewers dictat-
ing the politics is ST. Louis, and
partly debating in Kansas City,
while St. Joseph, Hannibal, JET
ferson City, Joplin and a hundred
smaller towns were more or less
under saloon domination.
Folk has brought them under
partial CONTROL, but he wants ad-
ditional power to place them un-
der complete CONTROL of the state.
The Sunday closing law is ignored
in the counties OF st. Charles, st.
Louis, and>Ste. Genevieve, and in
the cities Of Sedalia, Joplin and
Moberly IN other counties.
The Governor is powerless to
enforce the law or compel the
Prosecuting Attorneys to do so.
He will ask the Legislative to give
him power, when "a Prosecuting
Attorney fails to enforce any law.
to appoint a special prosecuting
officer to take charge of the en-
forcement of that law in the coun-
ty, and if the neglect is particu-
larly hagrant, to suspend or re-
move the Prosecuting Attorney or
the Sheriff and appoint men who
will enforce the law. That is a
power to be exercised only with
great caution, but there are Prose-
cutting Attorneys and Sheriffs who
will not enforce the saloon laws un.
der any conditions.-St. Louis Re-
public, Nov. ID.
The audacity of any Governor
who would nominate himself on q
"home rule" platform and con.
tinually enlarge a state machine
after his election is nothing short
of brazen. And any people who
would tolerate such treatmen

The Result.

The 1906 elections have been
held and the result is known to
every n who reads the papers.
The republicans are perfectly
satisfied with the general verdict
of the people. They have made
gains in the upper house of con-
gress where they did not expect OF
need them. They elected a larger
majority to the lower house than
their own estimates gave them.
They defeated Hearst aud his ag-
gregation OF demagogues in New
York and in fact held their own in
all parts OF the country.
This was an off year and the
party in power frequently suff ers
defeat in the off year elections. In
q number of Republican states,
because of local questions, the re-
publican majorities were greatly
reduced, but the states where fac
tional differences were ignored the
republicans were easily the VIC
tors. Thinking people looked fol-
just such a result. Under repub-
lican rule the country is prospe r
ous. People understand tina t

THE TOP PRICE
 PAID FOR WOOL
Quarter of a Million Pounds Sold
 at P 3.4 Cents.

The market for territorial wool was topped yesterday at Beardsley when q sale was made of the clip from the bands belonging to Campbell and Francis at 22& cents a pound. The bid was made by Edwin Burke, buyer for H. c. Judd and Root of Hartford, Conn. and Larry c. Holden, buyer for the Davey Gould and company of Bos- ton. The buy was of the entire clip from the sheep owned by the firm and will in all probability amount to 25O, 900 pounds The lowest bid yesterday was 215A cents.
 The high price, from the standpoint of the wool men is attributed to the fact that Messrs. Campbell and Francis give their personal attention to their sheep and as a result the wool is of fine quality It was known several days ago that the different buyers had been authorized by their houses east to raise their bids and it was almost certainty that the sale yesterday would bring out the top notch price but it was not expected by but a few that the price would be as high as it was.
 All of the sheep belonging to the firm have by no means been sheared but they will be during the ensuing two weeks. Friday a large band of the sheep was taken across the river to the Beardsley camp by rail the river not permitting a crossing. Each day during the balance of the week there will be small sales and the last of the week a large amount of the buys of the past few days will be shipped from the valley.

Engineer Potter. who is now charged with the responsibility of supervising the erection of a water works plant for this city, was busy yesterday, as he has been for several days in fact, driving over the surrounding country and making observations having in special view the possibility of securing a proper site and supply for a gravity system of waterworks. That question will be disposed of first and if it $ determined that such a system is not feasible, some other plan will be adopted. Mir. Potter in his contract with the city has agreed to have the plans drawn and specifications ready for the commission by June 1st But before he can proceed upon them he must first determine the kind. char acter and location of the works. ques- tions that are of fundamental import Snce.
