Agreat deal has been said late
ly concerning the newspaper
publishing all the news all the
time regardless of who it hit or
who it offended, no pets and no
special favorites. This sounds
mighty good to some people
especially to the fellows who
make such statements, yet it is
well understood by all sensible
readers and thinkers that there
is not a paper published in
Missouri that gives all news all
the time; neither is there a paper
but what withholds from the
general public much that is
questioned and in manner hurt.
full. To say we publish al the
news regardless of who il may
offend or favor Is far fetched and
out of order. That which the
general public calls the news
may at times be worthless and
often the matter that finds its
way to the printed page could be
justly called by the same name.

Governor Hadley On the Job.

Whatsoever we sow, that shall
we also reap. With due apol-
ogies to that venerable maxim,
the J..D. observes that the peo.
pie of Missouri are beginning to
realize on the political feat which
we enacted in this state last fall.
Governor Hadley has been on the
job but a few months now, and
the air has been full of strife and
threatening the whole time.
The thing that most interests
us is the Governors persistent
demand for increased taxes. For
years the democrats of this state
carried elections on their record
for public economy, M@issourians
enjoyed a low tax rate so long
that they came to think that a
low assessment and II cents for
state purposes was theirs by
divine right; hence the demo
cratic record lost weight with
the voter and we have Governor
Hadley.
Since his Inauguration Hadley
has repeatedly given his official
endorsement to a real value as.
sessment and no reduction in
the tax rates. We're this policy
enforced, it would more than
double the taxes of every man in
johnson county. Hadley and
Treasurer Cowgirl voted in the
state board of equalization for
this standard of taxation, but
Attorney General Major, Auditor
Gordon and Secretary of State
Roach outvoted them, on the

ID AMT your opponent as a rascal and your
own candidate as a paragon of vir-
tue seems to be the standard of political war
fare pursued by the local Democratic organ, but
such tactics are seldom successful III this age
We all remember that the Democratic candi-
date for governor was held up as an angel and
the Republican candidate as a suspicious per-
son. but people have a way of finding out the
truth in these matters. They did SO III the
State election at which Mr.. Pennewill was cho-
sen. and they will do so in the city campaign
Mr. TAYLOR, the Republican candidate Tor
Mayor, in an address some time ago stated his
position and we feel sure that if elected Mayor
he will strive to administer the affairs OF the
city according to his best judgment That is all
DR. Spruance could do, no matter how long a
statement he might make.
We should not expect any marvellous change
or any great step forward with the Democrats
in control of the city government. The city
campaign will be brief thank heaven, and we
might as well assume that both the candidates
for Mayor are decent and respectable men. The
people will assume that whether the newspapers
and speakers do or not But Wilmington is
Republican city and for that reason, if for no
other the Republicans will win in the coming
city contest. The nominees OF the party were
chosen by a large majority of the Republican
voters and It is fair to assume that having won
their nomination fairly and in contest in which
no bitterness was displayed, the candidates OF
the party will be elected.

PATCH WORK ROADS.

IT He State Board Of Agriculture presents
u glowing condition of the farming inter
ests in Delaware. Good highways throughout
the State would be pretty frame for the pic
ture And by good roads we mean among other
things, roads laid out according TO sensible ideas
and not according TO freak notions. Some of the
road building in this county is freakish We
have no continuous stretch of good roads for any
considerable distance. If you want to get such
a stretch you must pay tribute to toll keepers,
the keepers of a system that belongs to a by
gone age The State really ought to put these
toll companies out of business. We have often
wondered why the farmers have endured them
for so long. Some of their roads are badly kept
up. A poor turnpike is the worst kind OF
road
The county has expended considerable money,
here and there, in building patch work good
roads Much OF this money has been thrown
away. For example the money used in Black
bird hundred should have been devoted to im-
proving the state road.
In the lower and middle part of the county
the state road is the one that should be inn
proved Instead of following this sensible
course, the legislators seemed desrous OF
pleasing either themselves personally, or some
of their immediate friends relatives, or else
delighting some alleged big and influential
man by spending the county money TO improve
the road in front OF the property of this man.

perity also. The hungry tenement
dweller and the magnate of finance
have an equal interest in the outcome
of the wheat harvest.
From many of the wheat States may
soon be expected the annual appeal Of
the grower for men in the fields to help
I'm getting in the harvest. Unfortun-
ately the wheat belt is far remote from
Bowery breNd-lines. The approaching
renewal Of the demand for farm labor
in the West ngain raises the hope that
some means may be devised by State
and other bureaus of labor for putting
the unemployed in touch with the en-
ployment which goes begging during
the harvest season.
