THE Jeptha d. Howe partlsans
gave the Niedringhaus outfit q roll
ing in the st. Louis republican pri-
mary election, last Thursday, that
was not only artistic, but really
beautiful from a democratic stand
point. Yes, sir; the Howe gang
virtually stood on the Niedringhaus
push, electing 1876 Of the city's 100
delegates to the republican state
convention. After the battle the
Howe forces took possession of an
irrigating parlor and Niedringhaus
retired to republican headquarters
probably to soak his head and
try to remember whether be used

a WRITER for the Kansas City In
dependent asserted, last week, that
without Joseph w. Folk on the
ticket the democrats couldn't win
IN Missouri next fall. The Inde-
pendent man has probably forgot
that when Mr.. Folk was at the top
Of the state ticket, in 1904, $4,000

necessary to insure the success of the
democrats Of Missouri in the next

FROM present appearances the re-
publican national committee will
have a good deal to say about who
shall be nominated for president.
Passing upon contests, and there is
II probability of two delegations
from number of states, make up
the temporary roll and select the
temporary officers of the conven-
tion will be its duty. The convcn-
ton itself, however. can override
the report of the committee if the
majority do not agree with its
findings. The fight promises to be
hot one between the factions and
democrats can afford to look on
and hope they may agree to stay
"fcll out"

THE number of men out of en-
ployment has increased from II to
81 per cent on account of the panic,
says the report of the state labor
bureau of New York. With long
"bread lines" and "soup houses" for
the unemployed, stacks of empty
dinner pals and nothing to fill
them with, it rather looks like our
republican friends will have a whole
lot of "eXplaining" to do next sum
mer and fall.

SENATOR WARNER and other Mis-

gress to "wipe out" a deficiency of
S61, 500 that appears on the books
of the st. Louis subtrcasury, and
in the meantime Thomas J. Atkins,
the man they are trying to pass
that little wad to, is attending re-
publican conventions all over the
state and securing Endorsements for
the senator.

THE rivalry between the republic.
ans who have been feeding on Off

who have failed to connect with the
counter, in efforts to prove them
selves the "original and only" sup

funny if they weren't in such dead
earnest. What lot of "cOld feet"
they'll have next November.

A great many farmers who depend
upon their dairy COWS as the princi-
pal source of their cash income do
not make dairying business. They
seem to milk COWS as sort of side
line. This, at least, is to be Judged
from the yield of the average mans
herd. There is great deal of hard
work connected with dairying; it is
a confining business. 1t requires the
farmers personal attention every day
in the year, Sundays included. These
are objections usually urged against
dairying. While they are worthy OF
consideration 1t should not be forgot
ten that herd of poor cows requires
as much attention. or nearly so at
least, as herd Of good cows; hence
1t would seem good business to i'm
prove the average dairy herd and

Probably, says the Cedar Rapids
Republican, the happiest men in Iowa
at the present moment are Congress
men Cousins and Birdsall They are
not candidates for reelection, and the
campaign will have no worries fol
them. Both have seen enough of the
dishonesty and trucking Of politics te
disgust them with the game forever
we wouldn't be surprised If Judge
Connor is in much the same frame
of mind.
