RADLEY AND FOLK,

Recently we made the stat
ment that Democrats who were ia
favor OF Folk for Senator would
naturally be for Hadley for Gov
ernor The Butler Democrat at
once called US, and seemed sur
prised at the idea. Since then
we have done a little investigat.
ing and hnd that Folks support
ers are going TO support Hadley,
aud the Republicans owe the
Democrat a vote of thanks for
supporting Folk.
Folk stands for the new Demo
eracy in Missouri, and he downed
the old guard" in 1904. Cow
herd stands for the old guard"
in Missouri and for Butler In
dian rule in ST. Louis. These
are facts that the Democrat can
not deny, altho' it along with
other Democratic papers, has
tried to pass over the st. Louis
frauds with pleasantries and
hints-neyer denying that Cow
herd was nominated BY corrupt
ballots in st. Louis.
The Folk Democrats If they
vote for principle and not lust
Democratic win vote for Hadley
and the Republican state ticket,
because the Republican party in
Missouri stands for the same
principle that caused their cleo
tion in 1904, with Folk the only
Democrat who was elected.
Democrats according 70 the
election law can support the Re
publican ticket and at the same
time vote for Folk their fayorite.
Republicans cannot support Folk
without sacrificing their entire
ticket as Folks name written on
q Republican ballot willnot count.
With such a man as John G. Nc
Kinley the fayorite, however, Re-
pnblioans have no desire TO sup
port Folk except that in the case
that they might want Folk IL Nc
KInley is not chosen. Experts,
however, are backing up their
Folk election talk by betting : 10.
3 that he beats Stone. John c,
Mckinley win probably be nom.
mated by the Republicans. Re
member you Folk Democrats,
that Folk and the Republican
state ticket have worked together
tremendously for four years and
il sou are conscientlonsly a Folk
man, You are for the entire state
ticket Elect Cowherd, and the
old guard" ycu downed 50 hard
four years ago win come into
power along with Ed Batter Of.
$1,000 dollar bill fame.
Remember, Republicans, that
you throw your vote on Senator
away when you vote for a Demo.
cratic candidate. This is accord
ing 70 the primary law. and the
vote on Senator is only aprimary
split primary il is

Bryan's record:-Four years
as Democratic leader of the
House Of Representatives with a
Democratic president, and he
never accomplished a thing. This
shows his many theories TO be
impracticable. Bryan is not
near the idol he was eight years
ago. People like a man who is
broad enough to change his mind
but do not admire the man who
is spread out so much that be is
thin.

nv ASHINGTON.-All records of in
w te1est in congressional kid
members are being broken by the at
tention the brown kids" from the
Philippines are receiving in congress.
They are the distinct attractions, not
only of the galleries, but of the mem
bers and senators themselves.
Capt. Richmond Pearson Hobson of
osculatory fame, and Nicholas Long
worth are ''has beens' that no longer
receive the notice of up-to-date capitol
guides. Every one in Washington ap-
pears as proud of these two resident
commissioners, Benito Legarda and
Pablo Ocampo de Leon, the Philippine
Islands have sent to Washington, as
young America is of his redtops or w.
Bourke Cochran of his latest forensic
effort. They are the real congressional
oddly, for they can speak in either
the senate or house.
Of course, the senate has been kind
enough to grant these Filipinos the
same courtesies as the house, but the
commissioners feel more at home in
the informality Of the lower body than

f HE regular army is revenged. Last
fall its officers had to take a Is
mile ride iii the Roosevelt horseman-
ship test
Gen. J. Franklin Bell, chief of the
general staff, the other day, beguiled
the president to William Muldoon's
15-mile test on foot.
Both the president and Gen. Bell
were guests, after their hike, at a
dinner given by Postmaster General
Meyer. Gen. Bell was as fit as could
be. The president still was fit-for
dinner. But he admitted he had lost
all his appetite for Muldoon tests.
The president exhibited great curl
osity as to the Muldoon system of fit
ting fat statesmen for the Washington
dinner season, since Secretary Root
and Gen. Bell have successfully taken
the course at White Plains.
Secretary Root, to be sure, is not
fat, He was suffering from too much
Monroe doctrine and nervous agita-
ton over the open door in China when
he surrendered himself to the hands of
the professor.
But Gen. Bell is fat, or was, until
he returned from White Plains. The
president did not pay much heed to
Mr.. Roots account of his strenuous
days at Muldoon's, because Mr.. Root
is not athletic. He even avoids golf.

the United States cavalry returned to

Easy Money In Sheep.

There is no other class of stock
that will produce a greater dividend
for the amount invested, If properly
cared for. They require no special
care except through winter and
spring. We breed our ewes to bring
lambs in February and March. They
should be kept away from other STOCK
at this time until lambs are old enough
to avoid being run over and trampled
on. It's very necessary to have shell
ter during winter and especially dur
the the Landing period, when they
should be inclosed every night. Our
sheep barn is situated at the intersec-
ton of three fields and is divided into
three parts, which makes it much cas-
Ter to care for and save the young
lambs.
Last fall / invested SITS in :}3 ewes
and a buck. We have sold from this
flock 1913 and have the original flock
left, which are worth over 81 per
head more than they were year ago.
We saved 45 out of 46 lambs and
started them nicely on rye pasture
before they were turned on grass. On
date of delivery, July s. they weighed
almost 100 pounds each and brought
$6.75 per 100 pounds. This, with the
wool, makes 1t quite easy.-J. W.

ROUND THE CAPITAL
Information and Gossip Picked Up Here
and There i'm Washington.
Filipinos Are the New Pets of Congress

among the dignifed members of the
senate.
With it's two new members congress
has been economical. Each will re.
ceive the regular salary of $500, but
the 20 cents mile travel gift is not
for them Two thousand dollars
apiece for each round trip is their
travel allowance.
Neither the house nor the senate
was particularly prepared for them.
Although the authority for the selec.
ton of the commissioners was given
in the Philippines organic act several
years ago it remained for the first as.
sembly last fall to make their choice
possible. Then the commissioners
slipped across the Pacific and pre-
scented themselves at the capital.
Congress had not been thinking
much about their coming or their 60
ing until they wanted to know what
rights resident commissioners" had in
congress. When they left home one
felt that the United States would let
them stay in Washington only under
surveillance, while the other went so
far as to believe that they would have
the right to vote in the house, run
down the corridor and vote on the
same measure in the senate.
The powers that be finally decided
that they should be given seats at
both ends of the capitol and the priv.
leges of the floor, but not of voting.
