DEMOCRATS AND
PUBLIC FUNDS.
A Demonstration of the splendid
Financial Management"

The general revenue fund in the
state treasury has not enough money
to pay the expenses Of certain state
educational institutions, including the
university. Democrats will try to lay
the responsibility on the Republican
auditor and treasurer.
They shall not be permitted to do
that. The responsibility is upon the
Democrats, and they cannot dodge it.
In January, 1907, Auditor W. w.
Wilder, (Republican) in regular course
Of his official duty, submitted TO the
governor and Legislature his estimate
Of the revenues for the biennial period
OF 1907 and 1908. He stated Off
cially that about So, ,O48, 1888 would be
paid into the treasury during that pc
rod under the revenue laws then in
force.
The Democrats estimated that the
revenues would exceed 100000
and made appropriations aggegating
$9,563,157.94 a sum more than one
and one half millions in excess OF the
estimated revenue, as officially sub
mitted by Mr.. Wilder. Before Govern
or Folk would sign the general ap-
preparation bill, (Which had been so
badly handled by Democratic clerks
Of the regular session that a special
session of the Legislature had to be
called to correct it,) he made the
benefciaries Of some Of the special ap-
propiations agree in writing not to-de-
mand more than forty to sixty per
cent Of the amounts appropriated.
These reductions aggregated about
$4,000, leaving the aggregate of all
appropriations about s80O,COO more
than the estimated revenues.
The revenues Of 1907 and 1908
have fallen little below the conser-
vative estimate of the auditor, and
there is not money enough now in
the general revenue fund to pay the
current expense bills and salary lists o.

the state educational institutions.
Should the auditor issue warrants 10
cover drafts from these institutions the
treasurer could not pay them and they
would have to be discounted by the
holders. Mr.. Wilder cannot issue
warrants which cannot be paid by the
treasurer out Of money on hand to the
credit OF the fund on which the war
rants are drawn; and the treasurer will
not pay warrants out Of money which
belongs to other funds, because that is
illegal.
Nothing but foolhardy fnanciering
could have brought about such a con-
dition as the creditors of the great state
confront today condition which
would have been much worse had not
the Kepu0llcan auditor and treasurer
refused to pay some special appro-
priations that would have exhausted
the treasury and left no money in the
general revenue fund with which to
pay the expenses Of the state govern
ment. The state auditor protested in
in vain against the extravagant ap-
propriations Of the Democratic legis-
lature and protected the treasury, as
far as possible, in the payment Of
them.

tickling coughs, get quick and certain

IN THE HomE NEST
Cheerful Evening Reveries for Tired
Mothers

God rest ye, little children; but nothing
you alright,
For Jesus Christ, your Savior, was born
this happy night
Along the hills Of Galilee the white clicks
sleeping lay,
When Christ, the Child Of Nazareth, was
born on Christmas day,
d. NJ. Mulock.
Though times and seasons are
not as important as many would
have us think, still nearly every
thoughtful person at the coming
new year remembers how old he is
and wishes he were not quite so
old. Let us turn our minds away
from the tabernacle OF flesh, the
least real thing in our lives, and
think a little of the inward grow
ing old For the body every added
growth isaImost incalculable again,
How old are we2 How much old
er than year, two years, ten years
ago7 How much quicker to rec
ognize the divine voice? How
much stronger our hand and clear
er our voice against evil2 How
much swifter our feet to bear the
message of good will to men?
How much gain has there been in
power and willingness to serve?
How much more faithful are we
in the chaos of small and COM
mon duties and cares2 How much
truer are we in friendship, warmer
in the home loves, more patient
with the mistaken and the bad?

HANG UP THE STOCKINGS.


The Christmas tree is all very
well, i! is "splendid" in fact, and
how beautiful it looks with the
candles lighted and the bright
tinted balls and bells and eggs
and hearts aud stars shining all
over it; but it is nothing to the
stocking in the chimney place on
Christmas eve. Have the tree by
all means. But if you want to
make the children happy don't
omit The stockings. 1t is English
and fashionable to have the tree,
with all the aunts and uncles and
cousins asked, and gifts for every
body, and music and dancing and
games, and cakes and oranges and
candies and lemonade and funny
recitations, and all sorts of things.
But oh, the stockings! When
everyone has brought a pair of the
longest and biggest, and papa has
taken pains to hang them so that
they are strong, and all is quite
still in the street and it is bed
time, what wonderful ideas come
into the little minds, and what
pleasant memories into those OF
the grown-ups. What mother
would like to miss the little ex-
hibition of hope and faith. The
child who trusts most ardently in
the benevolent Santa Claus will be
most likely to put faithin Heavens S
mercies in his after life; for Santa
Claus always comes when he is ex-
pected, and when mother and father
hang the stockings up he is sure
to put something in them.
An old proyerb says that a
"green Christmas makes a far
churchyard," and as most people
accept a proverb as if it were in.
disputably true, it should be said
that there is no truth whatever ir
that particular saying. No war.
rant is found for it in statistics
and the very fact that people
whose health is below the average
are advised by physicians to seel
a mild climate in winter, should
show others that when the Christ
mas holidays are mild and pleasan
they should not be oppressed will
any unusual dread Of impending
death. 1t is much more like
| lv that old ladies who dwell in Z
world of proverbs will come tc
grief than that undertakers vii
have any -cial reason to rejoice

81 a Year in Advance.

Except ye become as little
children" is fraught with precious
meaning, The kinghood of in
nocence is above all earthly dig
mites. The crown it wears brings
no anguish, entails no fear. Clear
eyed and clean.hearted, the little
children of the world stand on the
heights nearest heaven. The con-
descension that brings older per-
sons on The same plane with them
is no condescension at all, but
rather coming back to ones own
best estate.
Old age should be we'll fed,
we'll dressed, we'll housed, free
from the worries of life and the
discomlorts 1t should be placid
and gentle and beautiful. The
heart free from care and the body
free from labor, the mind should
expand and the aged should be-
come source of moral strength
and wisdom to all about them.
The old folks should be cared for
and honored, and above all they
should be allowed to have their
room and their will, for assuredly
they have lived long enough to
know what they want.
If you wish your children to be
respectful to you, then you should
be respectful to them. The boys
and girls who are spoken to in a
harsh, rough tone of voice natur-
ally fall into the habit of respond
ing in the same way. Parental
dignity and authority may be as
serted with the utmost hrmness,
and yet without coarseness or arro-
gance. In fact it cannot be we'll
asserted in any her way. Arude
father or mother is likely to have
rude sons and daughters.
There is sweet music in every
home where the heart strings are
touched by gentleness and court
esy. The mild word, the gentle
answer, the tender act, the patient
consideratness, will touch chords
OF kindness and make sweet
melody in the family as every
where. 4 desolate, dreary place
is a home devoid of those little
courtesies which are practiced in
the best social life
1t is little thing to show your
wife how dear she is to you, to
offer manly, lover.like sympathy
and help when she is worn out
with the days cares. Yet these
little things 60 far to make the
home a nest OF happiness and to
keep the wife what she was in the
sunny days of courtship.
To give children good instruc-
ton and a bad example is but
beckoning to them with the head
to show them the way to Heaven,
while you take them by the hand
and lead them to perdition.
When man is success he claims
the credit; when he is a failure he
finds some woman to blame for it.
So
Cultivate a spirit of cheerfulness
and gather friends about you by
the magic of a sunny face.
The old fashioned way Of dosing
The Taney County republican. (Forsyth, Mo.) 1895-1992, 1908-12-24

The old fashioned way Of dosing
weak stomach, or stimulating the heart
or kidneys is all wrong. Dr.. Shoop
first pointed out this euor. This is
why his prescription-Dr. Shops
Restorative-is directed entirely to the
cause Of these ailments-the weak in
side or controlling nerves. 1t isn't so
difficult, says Dr.. ShOop, to strength
en- weak stomach, heart or kidneys,
if one goes at it correctly. Each in
side organ has its controlling or inside
nerve. When these nerves fail, then
those organs must surely falter. These
vital truths are leading druggists every
where to dispense and recommend DR..
Shoop's Restorative. Test it a few
days, and see! Improvement will
promptly ard surely follow. Sold By
City drug store.

PROTECTION OF THE SCHOOLS.
Decide Not to Rec
ommend Basement Sprinklers.

The District Commissioners have de-
cided not to recommend the installation OF
sprinklers in the basement of public
schools for better protection against fire,
believing that other plans. for which the
money has been asked from Congress.
will. when completed. make the structures
sd fe in the event Of fire.
The attention of the Commissioners was
called TO the sprinkler system for eX-
tinsuishing basement fires by business
man of Cleveland, Ohio where the sys-
tenn has been adopted for the public
schools The letter was referred to Fire
Chief Wagner. He reported that 1.-The
fire department is heartily in favor of the
installation of sprinkler systems in the
easements of schoolhouses. not only for
the protection of such buildings, but for
safeguarding the lives of the teachers and
pupils therein.
But he adds that the department recent
ly recommended the fireprOofinG of base
ments, and if that is done the teachers
and pupils would have but little, il any
difficulty in making their escape from the
building in the event of fire. He says,
moreover. that sprinkler systems are
costly and for that reason and the others
mentioned above it was not deemed nee
eSsary to recommend their installation In
the public schools
This conclusion has been approved by
the Commissioners.
