Joseph, Mo-, are doing all in their
power, to nominate and elect their
brother governor of Mo-, fully be-
lieving him, not only very sound
physically, mentally and morally,
but politically, he is the only can
didate offering for governor of Mo-,
who, if elected, will sincerely carry
out the reforms introduced by gov

state from taking a backward step.
That he was going to St. Louis

in the Wallace headquarters for the
nomination of his brother, in order
as he believed. to save the state
to righteousness and sobriety.

Wallace.

Judge Vim. H. Wallace, of Kan
saS City, Mo-, is the one positively
temperance candidate before the
democratic primary for governor
of Mo.
1t has been freely reported: by
those opposing him, that he has
been in the Asylum or Sanitarium,
because his mind had given away.
Also that on the ground that his
mind had twice given away his
ministerial brother, pastor of the
Presbyterian Church in Mexico, Mo-,
and even his own wife, had oppos-
ed his candidacy for governor and
that this brother made a special
trip to Jefferson City some time
ago, to prevent Mr.. Folk from ap-
pointing his brother, William H.
Wallace, to a Circuit Judgeship, for
the same reason that his mind
could not stand the strain of such
an Office. Rev. M. F. Grove, pastor
of the Monroe City Methodist
Church, called up Rev. Wallace, of
Mexico, Mo-, being interested for
the truth and asked him the fol-
lowing questions: .
1t is reported here, that you are
opposing your brother, Judge Vim.
H. Wallace, for governor of Mo. If
so on what grounds?
Also it is reported that Judge
Wallace's own wife, is opposing his
nomination for governor, is it soP
1t is also reported that you OPP
posed his appointment for the Su-
preme Court or some such position,
to governor Folk. Is it trueY
Rev. Wallace answered back
promptly that there was not a
word of truth in any of these re-
ports and requested Rev. Grove to
say that all these reports are the
merest campaign lies and that both
he and his other brother in St.
no. iii ia no,

Why l Vote For Temperance Men
Only For Office.

1 Because Mr. Folk says: The
question in our state is whether the
lawless saloon shall control the
State or the State control the sa-
loon"
2 Because, as a rule, men do
not rise above their own character
in their official conduct. If drink
ers before election to Office they are
likely to be drinkers after election,
and they stand obligated to favor
that class in their appointments
and official rulings.
8 Because drinking, as bever-
age, and the selling of strong
drinks for such a purpose, being
held both by Gods word and the
Supreme court of the United States,
to be an immoral act, and my en-
dorsement of such a life or bust
ness, by my vote, being bound to
partake of the same moral nature,
therefore / cannot afford to vote for
other than sober and clean men for
Office. 80 ,a3

if revision Che says at Bryan's direc-
ton but would it not be true if done at
Taft's direction?) would serve TO halt
industrial and commercial progress and
keep business unsettled during his term
of office
''This is rich find. 1t shows how alb
surd the Republican platform looks to
a Republican when the Republican has
q chance to look at it in a disinterested
way. When Mr.. Rosewater thought that
the language quoted was taken from a
speech of mine, he could see how ridicu-
lous the language was. [ hope that his
opinion of the language will not change
when he finds that he was shooting at his
own platform instead of at me. The
amusing blunder of the Omaha Bee sug-
gests a new diversion for the campaign.
Let the Democrats accuse ME of using
various sections from the Republican plat
form and from Mr.. Taft's speeches and
see how the Republican editors will ridi-
Guile the language"

Are Americans Beautiful.

Caro- Delvaille, the famous French
painter, says Of American women:
II have never been in America, but
many times have had occasion to con-
template American beauties, and they
have made a profound impression on
ME. Only the women of Italy can be
compared with American women.
Americans are Amazons. The Itallan
beauty is more soft They are human
beauties, while the Americans are only
beauties"
Willette, whose sketches are the rage
in the French capital, is less compli-
mentary. He says:
Americans are ridiculous and insup-
portable, with their Independent airs
dominating even the male with thei-
physical forces Thus they lose charm.
One never sees a really beautiful wom-
an. or dreams of her, as one dreams of
happiness. There is only one type Of
feminine beauty-that created by Graek
artists Women of all countries should
seek to approach this ideal"

Chirn Not go Slow.

The Chinese Board Of Education has
recently issued ten regulations govern
ing educational matters throughout the
empire. Here are some Of them:
Every capital city must have at
least 100 primary schools and mini
mum of 5000 students. All procedures
and districts must have at least 4o
schools and a minimum Of 1900 stu
dents.
every child at the age OF seven
years shall be compelled to attend
school.
ANY official succeeding in persuad1ng
gentry to found schools shall be re-
warded.
THE parents Of any child OF seven
years of age or over shall be held re-
sDonsible for the attendance at school
of such child. and will be punished IN
the event of it's failure to attend.
''All projects and magitrates who fail
to obtain the stipulated number OF
schools and students in their respective
districts will be punished"
Who shall say after this that China
laes behind in the race?

ROCK ISLAND IS LOSER
Big Loss of Earnings Shown During Last
Year and No Dividend Will
Be Paid

NEW YORK. Oct. 13.-At the an
nual meeting of the Rock Island COM
pany today one of the stockholders
asked President Robert Mather to give
certain information regarding the con-
dition of The company, with particular
reference to dividend prospects. The
annual report, to be issued in few
days, Mr.. Mather said, would show a
surplus of little more than S1,0OO,0O0
earned by the Rock Island. the Frisco,
the Evansville and Terre Haute. and the
Chicago and Eastern Illinois. The year
before they earned a surplus of $9,476,
COO The lines in the system, Mr.. Math-
er continued, suffered severely in the
panic because of inability to make oper-
ating expenses conform to the sudden
reduction of gross earnings. In the last
six months, however, the company has
cut down operating and other expenses,
and the net showing was much better.
No dividend will be paid.

Call of Docket Marks Opening OF
190S-19O9 Term Which Will Be
Watched with Interest.
OTHER ACTIONS FIX FUTURE LAWS.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 13.-Be-
ginning at noon today, the call of the
docket in the supreme court of the Unit
ed States for the 19OS-O9 term was be-
gun. Many important railway questions
will receive the courts attention and OF
these the appeal from the decision OF the
United States circuit court for the east
ern district of Pennsylvania on the com
modities clause" of the interstate COM
merce law as affecting the anthracite coal
roads will probably occupy first place
with the public.
Will Decide Oil Case.
An important case near the head of
the call is that of the Waters-Pierce Oil
company of st. Louis. This is an APP
peal by the company from decisions OF
the Texas state courts BUSTING the COM
pany from doing business in that state
and imposing a fine of over Sl,OOO,OOO
against it on the charge of violating the
antitrust laws of the commonwealth.
The Waters-Pierce company is identified
with the Standard Oil company, and on
that account as we'll as on account OF
the fact that Senator Bailey has been
charged with giving assistance to the
company in it's controversy the suit has
attracted much attention.
Test Haskell Bank Law.
A case recently docketed will test the
validity of the Haskell bank guaranty
law of Oklahoma, and another institut-
I'd by one of the negro soldiers dis
charged on account of the Brownsville
riot, will deal with the right of tie
President to summarily dismiss an en-
listed man before the expiration of hrs
term. Still another case deals with New
York city's SOcent gas law, the con-
stitutionality of which is attacked, and
another is intended to test the applica-
bility of the New York game laws to
game shipped from abroad.
Colorado Land Cases.
There are several cases dealing with
alleged violations in Colorado of the pub
lie land laws, in connection with which a
number of men of prominence are being
criminally prosecuted. These cases We're
dismissed by Judge Lewis of the federal
court in Colorado, but the government
appealed and is preparing for a thorough
presentation of them. A number of cases
affecting irrigation and dealing with the
right of corporations to divert water in
the face of protests from riparian own
ers also hold places on the docket.

Thia Is Too Much.

On Oct. 3 Mr.. Bryan's attention was
called to the Omaha World-Herald's edi-
torial reproducing the Omaha Bees at
tack upon the Republican platform. He
said:
II am very much surprised that Mr..
Rosewater, who is the editor Of the Bee,
and also a member of the executive com
mittee Of the Republican national COM
mittee, and the head Of the Republican
bureau Of publicity, should have attempt
ed to misrepresent my position. A good
many unfair things have been said, but
nothing more unfair than that said by Mr..
Rosewater. To accuse me of using the
language of the Republican platform is
an outrage. He ought to apologize for
this injustice, and explain to hie readers
that the language which he criticises was
