THE "news" political now be-
ginning to fill the subsidized daily
press is of fearful and wonderful
creation. A few days ago the pa
pers set out, under bold caption,
a letter from Mr.. Gompers, the La
Dor leader, to Mr.. Hearst, asking
him, as the head of the Indepen-
dent Party, to support Mr.. Bry-
an for the Presidency. This letter
and the reply to it were printed in
full, Gin the exact language of
their own Words" Now it tran
spires that Mr.. Gompers wrote no
letter of any kind whatsoever to
Mr.. Hearst! 1t will pay the
searcher after truth to cast aside
utterly nine-tenths of all the po-
litical news he reads, and receive
with caution, backed by irrefragi-
BILE corroboration, the remaining
tenth. Even then he may be hoo
dooed before the campaign is
over.

JOHN A. KNOTT.

lido not know that | can say
anything more favorable to John
A. Knott, who is candidate for re-
election to the Office of Ware
house and Railway Commissioner,
than that which is contained in the
subioined article from The Track
man, a journal devoted to the in
terests of the men who labor at
St.25 day. l have been close
observer of Mr.. Knott's conduct
the past six years, and heartily
endorse every word said of him
by The Trackmdn. He we'll de-
serves the Endorsement of all good
Democrats at the Primary on
August 4th, and l hope he may go
in with an overwhelming majority
Son the first Tuesday of August,
the primaries in the state of Mis-
souri, will be held, at which candi-
dates for the various Offices will be
selected by the votes of the people.
The term of Office of Jno. A. Knott,
Chairman of the Board of Railroad
Commissioners, will expire this
year, and he must, if he succeeds
himself, be nominated for his pre-
sent Office at the August primary.
He has opposition for the nomi-
nation, and while we know moth
ing about the character of the can
didates against him, we are led to
believe that they are honest men.
We do not wish to cast any retlec-
ton upon the other candidates for
the nomination to Jno. Knott's po-
sition. What we want to make
plain to the people of Missouri is,
that no matter how honest and ca
pable the men may be, who are
seeking to defeat Knott, the people
cannot allow him to be displaced.
"Jno. Knott has stood like rock
for the people of Missouri against
the grasping, greedy and lawless
corporations. He has stood for
fair play between the people and
the railroad and the express COM
panies. His colleagues on the
Board are Frank Wightman, re-
publican, and Rube Oglesby, a
democrat. Notwithstanding the
opposition he has received from

G. B. Burnhans, of Carlise Cen

years ago | wrote you stating that
| had been entirely cured of a se-
we're kidney trouble by taking less
than two bottles of Foley's Kidney
Cure. 1t entirely stopped the
brick dust sediment, and pain and
symptoms of kidney disease dis
appeared. I am glad to say that
I have never had return of any
of those SYMPTOMS during the four

ney Cure to any one suffering from
kidney or bladder trouble"

Mr.. and Mrs. Oesch of 1922 1-2
Armstrong Ave.
Diptheria, that scourge among
children, made it's appearance and
little Rolla said, "Grandma, I want
to go to bed" The best of medi-
cal assistance was at hand, ready
and willing to do all in their pow
er for the little sufferer, but the
death angel said, "Come," and
Rolla left us and went to live in
the mansions above. Rolla was
born Feb. II, 1906, the day Alice
Roosevelt was married. We know
not his age in heaven for days and
years are not reckoned there, but
to US he will always be "little
Rolla."
Rolla was precocious child and
every one noticed him and loved
him. He was wise beyond his
years, and his quaint sayings will
long be remembered by his friends.
Our hearts are aching now for our
precious little one, but we know
that he is "Safe in the arms of Jes-
u.s." God help us to bear our sor-
row and lonliness till we meet
him above.

1T is now pretty clear that the
financial troubles and hard times
of the past year are caused by the
Democratic party, and not by the
Republicans, as the adherents OF
the former party are now trying to
impress upon the people. Every
one must admit that we were float
ing upon the top waye of indus
trial activity and prosperity until
the moment when the Democratic
party began it's activity looking
towards the campaign of 1908,
which at the same time produced
the conviction that the party
would beyond question nominate
Mr.. Bryan for the third time.
Democratic activity and the nom
ination of Judge Parker four
years ago caused no depression in
the times for the reason that capi-
tai did not feel the apprehension
of his election, or an industrial
disturbance in the event of his
election; but just as soon as
Bryan enters the scene of Dem
ocratic action again, with the
menace of his election before the
country, gloom fell upon our in
dustrial activity and hard times
became inevitable. There will be
no rise to the normal swell of in
dustry again in this country un-
til the question of Bryan has
again been settled at the polls.-

these men, who took oaths to sup
port the constitution and the laws,
Jno. Knott, by his honesty of pur-
pose and force of character, has
secured a fair enforcement of the
railroad laws of the State of Miss
ouri.
"The people OF Missouri are like
the people of every other State in
the Union. In the main, they are
honest and want to do the fair
thing. They want to encourage
officials in doing their duty. 1t is
safe bet that the people of any
State will do what is right if they
only know what it is.
"Jno. Knott has the enmity and
ill will of every railroad and ex-
press official in the State of Missou-
ri who wants to violate the laws of
the State in the interest of the cor
poration he represents. Therefore
Jno. Knott should have the friend
ship and support of every honest
citizen in the State of Missouri for
re- election to his Office, regardless
of party affiliations. Jno. Knott
has made railway travel more Sc
cure in the State of Missouri, and
he has done this against the COM
bined opposition of all railway of.
ficials and the two commissioners,
Wightman and Oglesby. Safe
railway tracks is only one of the
many benefits he has obtained for
the people of his state since he has
been in office. The people should
love him for the scoundrelly ene-
mics he has made in the perform
ance of his duties, and honest Jno.
Knott should be nominated at the
primaries, and should be elected
in November by unanimous vote"

Notice to Voters.

The new primary election law,
under which candidates for the
various state and county offices
are to be nominated, is not as we'll
understood by the voters and even
by the judges of the election as it
should be. For the general infor-
nation of the voters we offer the
following explanation of the two or
three points which, in our opinion,
is likely to cause confusion in vot-
ing.
The election is to be conducted
just as any general election, except
as to receiving the ballot, scratch
ing," and counting scratched bal
lots.
The voter is given but one ballot
that of the party with which he
wishes to vote-instead Of all the
ballots as in the general election.
Before the ballot is handed out
it must have the initials of two of
the judges placed on its back, as
in other elections.
The voter passes into the booth
and prepares his ballot by scratch
ing out the names of all the can
didates for whom he, does not wish
to vote, folds his ticket and hands
it to the receiving judges, who
number it and place it in the bal
lot box; tho two recording clerks
at the same time writing the name
of the voter in the poll books oppo-
site the number of his ballot, as in
general election.
Nothing is gained by scratching
a ballot. A voter may do so if he
wishes, and may write the name
of the candidate of any other
party for that office. In counting
such ballot the tallying or count
ing judges must enter the vote, but
only under the head of the party
named at the top of the ballot vot-
ed. To illustrate: A voter scratch
es all the names under any given
Office on the Democratic ticket and
writes therein the name of a Re-
publican candidate for that Office.
In counting the ballot the Repub-
lican candidates name must be
entered in the Democratic column
and credited with such vote as a
candidate on the Democratic tick
ct; but in no case is such vote add
ed to what that candidate may re-
ceive on his own ticket. Thus il
will be seen that nothing is to be
gained by a voter scratching his
ticket in the primary.
Near the bottom of each ballot
will be found blank line for writ
ing the name OF a man for mem
Der of the County Committee from
that township.
The vote is to be cast up by the
Judges and clerks of election. A
copy of the returns from each pre-
cinct must be sent to the County
Chairman of each political party,
as to his respective party vote, and
the returns also certified to the
County Clerk. Where practicable
these are sent by registered mail.
One poll book and tally sheet also
remains in the hands of the judg-
es of election. The returns to the
County Chairmen must be made
within twenty-four hours after the
votes have been counted.
The newly elected committee
men from each township shall
meet at the county seat on Friday
following the primary and organ
ize the County Committee.

MY w. G. T. U. friends say
they want the saloon done away
with in order to remove tempta-
ton from weaklings, leaving the
inference that the liberty of the
individual to use strong drink is
not to be interfered with. But
the platform of the National Pro-
hibition party adopted at Column
bus, Ohio, on the 18th inst, tells
another tale. The second plank
calls for "The immediate prohibi-
ton Of the liquor traffic for bever-
age purposes in the District of
Columbia, in the Territories, and
all places over which the Nation
al government has Jurisdiction; the
repeal of the internal revenue tax
on alcoholic liquors and the pro-
hibition of interstate traffic there
in" The first plank calls for the
submission of constitutional
amendment "prohibiting the man
ufacture, sale,," etc., of "alcoholic
liquors for beverage purposes.

of the Prohibition cranks, not of
the w. G. T. U.; but if you, dear
reader, have ever seen w. G. 7.

out Prohibitionist your exper-
ience will not tally with mine.

THE National Democratic Com

But Democratic country editors
can overcome the limitation
through the use of the names of

borrow money from their institu-
