THE MISSOURI LEGISLATION
Making for Good Law and Against
Corruption Of all Kinds

JEFFERSON CITY, Jan. 3l.-The
vote is in the State Assembly on any
good government measure, everytime
one is taken, plainly tells who stands
for law, order and decency and who is
opposed to 1t.
All tnat the people Of Missouri have
to do to get well acquainted with the
moral tendencies of the Senator and
Representatives they sent to Jeffer-
son city,is to watch the way they vote.

revealing whether or not they are
living up to the Democratic platform
Of law enforcement and whether they
are earring out this anti-election prom

The tone of letters received daily by
Senators and Representatives tells
them how closely the people are
Watching the way they vote on good
government measure Each con-
tains a warning that the reputation Of
the Democratic party is at stake and
that II the Democratic majority In the
State assembly does not make good
the voters will remember on next
election day and punish those who paid
no deed to the trust which was placed
In them.
The element opposed to law and
decency are strongly organized, have
money supplied by corrupt lobbyists
brilliant speakers, clever leaders and
plenty Of nerve aud are hesitating al

begun arrangements to erect the pre-

The Black Crook company, to appeal

cular shows on this circuit and not
burlesque as some appear to think
They will crowd the space behind the
proscenium even after 1t is made lar
ger for the production is massive Il
say the least and the second Of its ma
ture that has ever played this city, tn
other being the Evil Eye.
