All Governors Endorsed.

We endorse the administration Of
all OF our Democratic Governors,
from WoOdsOn to and including
Governor Joseph w. Folk; and we
commend the members of the Gen
cral Assembly in both Senate and
House for the many wise laws passed
from time to time in the interest of
the people.
We indorsc the official records of
William J. Stone, United States
Senator, and Of the Democratic mem
bers from Missouri in the National
House of Representatives.
Inasmuch as the National Con
vcntion il soon to formulate decla-
ration of principles, we refrain from
any attempt to present the views of
the Missouri Democracy on national
questions at this time. But in adj
vance of the Denver Convention we
appeal to the patriotic Democracy
of Missouri, under whose control
she has grown to be one of the most
powerful commemorative Of the ma
ton, to rally as unit at the No
vember election and fully restore
her to her Old-time prestige as n
Democratic State.

High Tariff on Coal Oil.

The Rochester New York Demo
crat recently said;
at is worthy of notice that the
two most powerful, wealthy and
grasping trusts In this country are
the Standard Oil company and the
anthracite monopoly; yet there IL
no important duty on petroleum or
hard coal. With these articles on
the free list, their output and sale
are held in control by trusts, prices
are marked up arbitrarily, and the
public is powerless to resist the eX-
tortiun.
at is conceded that the tariff
should be revised, but not from the
false standpoint ON which Senator
LaFollette has planted himself.
The free-traders are fond Of saying
that the tariff Is the mother Of
trusts but they invariably dodge
when requested to account for the
existence Of trusts which have no
tariff protection"
Referring tn the Rochester papers
editorial the San Francisco Star
makes this interesting comments:
So there is no import duty on pc
troleum? 1t would seem so from
careless reading of the Dingley law.
But the careful reader, the man who
| l. 10 lao. x,ytll Hnl
this joker at the end OF paragraph
62G:
provided, That II there he inn
ported into the United States crude
petroleum produced in any country
which imposes Ii duty on petroleum
or its products exported from the
| United States, there shall in such
cases be levied, paid, and collected
u duty upon said crude petroleum or
its products 80 imported equal tothe
duty Imposed by such country
The effect OF that joker is that pc
troleum has greater protection than
any other article IN the Dingley law
The only noteworthy competitor
in the petroleum business is Rus
sla, which has surplus of pc
troleum to export. But for that
joker In the Dingley law-and
il was in the free trade Wilson
German law also-Russia conld
sell petroleum In this country cheap
or than it Is sold by the Standard
Oil Company.
The effect Of the joker is that
Russian oil brought to this country
must pay the same tariff tax as
American oil exported to Russia
100 to POO per cent. During the past
six years some Russian oil has been
brought To this country, the tariff
duties being IA cents gallon ON
crude and 2.A cents II gallon on re-.
fined oil
| BY means Of the joker that pre-
vents Russian competitions. the
Standard Oil trust has been able t.
charge American consumers about
two or two and half cents a gallon
more than it could have done If pc.
troleum had been on the free list.
Now, If the Rochester Democrat
will get table showing the amount
of refined oil used in this country,
and will carefully multiply the mum
Der of gallons by 30 cents, it will
see that since the Dinglcy law went
into effect it has made free gift to
the Standard Oil trust OF several
million dollars. San Francisco Star.

90 1-2 Freight Cars OF Gold.

Washington, May 2G.-Just for
fear the "plain pee.pul" would not
understand how much money this
do-nothing session OF Congress has
appropriated, Representative Ham.
ilton, Of Missouri, to-day reduced
the figures to horse and man power.
He announced that he had found
out from the Treasury Department
that thirteen $40 gold pieces weighed
n fraction under one pound, andthat
ton OF the metal was worth SOLO,
900.
Upon the basis of Il million-dollar
appropriation he estimated that this
session of Congress had expended
l,Sjl tons of gold. Loaded in wagons,
one ton load, and each wagon
placed in line seven and one-half
yards apart, Mr. Hamlin said, the
procession would be seven and one
half miles long; that the gold would
fill nincty-two and Onc-half freight
cars, each carrying twenty tons.
making five trainloads, and that if
loaded on the backs of men, each
carrying 80 pounds, ii would take
u ,OG3 men to carry the appropriation
of Congress about town.
There were zoos votes cast for
the Speaker of this House at the last
election" said Mr.. Hamlin. alt
would, therefore, take all the Re
publicans and l,2Sj Democrats IN
the district of Speaker Cannon to
carry the appropriation of this Con-
gress.n

Republicans Libeled Own State.

We call attention to the fact that
before the election of 1904 the Re-
publican press and partisans again
and again charged the officials of
Missouri with having squandered
and looted the school and other pub
lie funds of the State, and promised
the people that II they were given
an opportunity to "see the books"
they would demonstrate that these
malicious and libelOus charges on
the good name Of this State were
true, and we now point with pride to
the fact that after they, for almost
four years, have been In sole charge
of the books, and they have found
everything in excellent condition,
not one dollar missing, and they
have been compelled to confess by
their silence that they, by the un-
warranted and false charges, libelcd
and slandered their own State sim
ply for partisan purposes.
The Democratic party always has
stood for internal Improvement, and
especially for the development of
the waterways of the country into
such complete navigability that they
would act as checks on the rates of
the railways, and bring about better
service by competition.

The st. Louis platform of the Ma

provement of the waterways of the

will enable the farmers, manulac-

The permanent Improvement of
the Missouri River, the most inn
portant part of which is entirely
Within the bounds Of the State of

freight lines of towboats and steel

OF THE
MISSOURI DEMOCRACY
Adopted at the State Convention at
Jefferson City on May goth.

The Democracy of Missouri, in
convention assembled, sends greet
ings to the Democracy of the ma
ton and gives assurance that in No
vember, Missouri, setting an cX-
ample of party unity, will take her
proper place in the front rank of
Democratic States, and, in view of
the universally admitted fact that
national conditions are exceptionally
suspicious for the Democracy, We
appeal to our brethren throughout
the Union to join with US in the SUI
preme struggle to win a memorable
victory and to place the Government
once again in the hands of the old
party Of the Constitution and the
people.
With renewed zeal we reaffirm OUT
allegiance to the principles Of De-
ocracy as declared by Jefferson
Jackson and Bryan; and our dele.
gates to the National Convention
hereby are instructed to cast the
vote OF this State as IA unit for the
nomination To the presidency Of that
intrepid champion of the people
William J. Bryan, and 20 support
