NEW RATE Law.

The law forbidding the issuance
of railroad passes will prove of
material benefit to the editors of
the better class of papers. The
railroads cannot afford to dispense
with their advertising and will, of
necessity, be compelled to pay
cold cash for what newspaper
space they use. During the past
week the Republican closed a con-
tract with one of the roads enter
ing Clinton that will bring as much
cash into the Office during the year
az the paper will legitimately
spend in railroad fare during that
time. One of the other roads has
asked for advertising rates in or
der to make a cash contract and
the third road entering Clinton
will naturally be forced to do 80.
In addition to this, several of the

The Thaw trial still hangs on
and most people will feel relieved
when the disgusting ordeal is over.
While there isn't much about any
of the entire crowd to admire,
people generally were not sorry
when White was killed by Thaw.
There hasn't anything developed
during the progress of the trial to
weaken Thaw's case, and it is
pretty generally conceded that
White was not a fit man to live.

FRIDAY, MARCH %, 1907
QUEER ATESMENSH

A philosophical observer could
find much room for thought, ris-
ing in spots to the height of pray
erful meditation, upon the strange
ways of latter day Legislators
particularly Missouri Legislators.
For instance, the present leglsla-
tor, sitting at Jefferson City be-
tween spells of smallpox scares,
sternly refuse to make an appro-
priation of ST, 200. 900 for the state
university, it's virtuous spasm of
economy prompting it to cut the
modest estimates of the curators
in half. There was no evidence to
show the least suspicion of extra
vagance on the part of the men
who are u~nselfshly devoting their
lives to building up a great edu-
cationel institution that will be an
honor to the state and a source of
immeasurable benefit to it's young
men and women. On the contrary
compared with the generous treat
ment that other states accord their
universities, and the rich endow-
ments that are constantly falling
in the lap of administrations sup
ported by private philanthropy,
the estimated requirments of the
University of Missouri appeared
almost too small to enable it to
make a creditable showing, much
less uphold the honor and dignity
of this proud and prosperous COM
monwealth. Nevertheless, the
state solons thought it a piece of
extravaganza to spend a trifle
over a million of dollars to put the
university on it's feet, and pre-
sumably by way of rebuke-cer-
tainly without any apparent rea-
son-they cut the appropriation to
$4,000
On the other hand, this gen.
eral assembly welcoms the idea
of spending 5 5000, 900 for a new
state capital. There is no real
necessity for a new building, but
a few shrewd and hustling spirits
at Jefferson City saw the chance
to get a fat appropriation for the
town, and hence this raid on the
state treasury. Nobody can blame
the citizens of the sleepy old town
for trying to put q little more life
into it, and certainly $4,000, 900
will go a long way toward waking
things. But it is hard to under.
