The Governor From Kansas.

What kind of a Governor has Mis-
souri,? When Maj. John Hadley died
in Desoto, Kansas, a proclamation
was issued from the Governors Of
flee to close all State offices the day
of the funeral. All the offices were
closed out of respect to the Governor
and his father. This was right and
proper and met with the approval of
all the people. When Auditor Cor
don's father died, no proclamation Of
any kind was issued, although Col.
Gordon was long time honored citi-
zen of this state and his son a State
officer. Col. Gordon had been d citi-
zen of Missouri for 70 years, was a
Colonel in the Confederate Army,
and a Democrat all that time and did
much for the development of the
State. A manifestation of respect by
the Governor to the Auditor and his
dead father would not have been out
of place. Jasper County Democrat.
