Mr.. Folks Plain Duty.

"
If there is a drop of red blood in
Joseph w. Folks body; if there
is a spark of sincerity mixed up
with all of his wordy preachments
about reforming the police depart
ment, he will Immediately cause
an Investigation to be made into
the Stars relations with the police
department.
1t is true that up to this time the
Star has absolutely dominated the
official policy of the Governor. 1t
is, perhaps, true that he was sur
prised when he learned that the
police department was turning
over to William R. Nelson, for use
in his private lawsuits, valuable
documents which were the prop
erty of the State of Missouri and
which documents it was import
ant for William r. Nelson to lose
or destroy.
The production of this evidence
makes the issue very plain. The
police department has been used
to further the personal and private
interests of the editor of the Star.
Mr.. Folk has declared in that
stentorian tone so Characteristic
of the modern reformer, that the
police department must be used
and used only in the public's BUSH
ness. He declared that he had
heard rumors that it had been
used to assist private interests,
and upon those rumors he based
his demands for a through investi-
cation.
Now Mr.. Folk has something to
look into which is not based on
rumors or street gossip, but which
is a confessed fact and concerning
which there can be no doubt. That
the police department has been
used by the Star to force the de-
tectives to compromise their libel
suits or settle them is a fact which
Mr.. Folk will find susceptible of
unquestioned proof.
Confidential records of the police
department, Immediately after
they were secured, have been
turned over to the attorney of
William R. Nelson and are now
either in possession of this at
torney or have been lost or de-
stroyed. Mr.. Folks Investigation
committee will have no trouble in
ascertaining this statement to be a
fact if the testimony of his own
Police Commissioners is treated
by him with any weight.
The only honest course open
now, and his sincerest friend will
not deny it, is for the Governor to
take a hand in this Investigation.
If he wants any part of the people
of Kansas City to have confidence
in his reform speeches, he will
step in now and take cognizance
of the chief culprit in the whole
police affair.
Of course, it will be embarrass-
ing to the Governor-his subserv-
iency to the Kansas City Star has
embarrassed him beforehand it
will be embarrassing as long as he
continues to affiliate with it and
the Democratic party, but ''duty"
is the great word of Mr.. Folk, and
we now have an opportunity to
ascertain whether or not he feels
its responsibility further than
words.-Kansas City Post.
