The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1908-11-27

What did this campaign for the pres.
idential success mean? Under.
meath and back OF the Fictitious snd
personal scandals which President
Roosevelt has inspired and proclaimed
there is the real meaning of this
election II is the substitution of the
rule Of the people for the rule of trusts
and monopolies.
This is the point. the essence Of
the Democratic position The people
want revision of the tariff that shall
make for easier living and better
wages. They want relief from the
burden of carrying the Philippines as
satrapy when our national system
recognizes only free government. They
want an accommodation Of national
expenditure TO national income that
shall avoid the taxation of labor TO
meet bureaucratic extravaganza.
These. and other things which Mr.
Roosevelt ignored In his booming Of
the Taft candidacy. our people want.
Can the interest of the people be di.
veried from these matters TO the petty,
insignificant pretexts of the Republic.

IMPORTANT ACT
DECLARED VOID

Contending that the corrupt practices
aos, in so far as it concerns candidates
for public office, is unconstitutional,
al appeal was taken tn the superior
court aud argued Tuesday, the case
being that of Judge John y. Van
Swearingeu, of Fsyette county.
In accord with his Interpretation of
the act. which was passed by the leg
islature IN the 1906 special session,
Judge Van Swearingen filed an ac-
count of his campaign expenses in
1906 To this exception was taken by
". NJ. Likins and other voters of the
county.
An audit of the Van Swearingen ac-
count was ordered, but a motion to
quash the petition followed. and was
sustained upon the grounds that part
OF the act was unconstitutional for the
reason that, in the special call for the
1906 legislative session, Governor
pennypacker had not designated as a
subject the requiring of political call
didates to file accounts.
1t is provided in the constitution
that all special legislation must have
been designated in the governors pro-
clamation. The corrupt practices act,
in so FAR as it relates to political man
ayers and parties, was so specified.
