more than servant of his politi-
cal followers. Even the Democrats
had to say, when he had finished
his address, that it was worthy Of
acceptance by everybody and was
the deliveranCe of n statesman. It
remains to be seen how this Drill
liant young Republican governor,
frank, honest and manly, will fare
at the hands of men Of opposite
political faith who have the power
to impede his work or to aid him
In the accomplishment of the good
things he has promised to do for
the people.
Governor Hadley could only

Then he went on to say that
while he does not believe in "rose =
water" treatment of criminals or
enemies of society. he does believe
that executive officers should set
the example of respect for the let
ter and forms of the LAWN other
words, that the law should not be
used simply to scare violators or
to meet some extraordinary situa-
ton, but should be uniformly and
conscienciously enforced against
all who violate them, through or
d erly processes. This declaration
was regarded by the public men
as very significant, az it suggests
an effort to make the laws of the
state more effective, and indicates
that the gonernor does not propose
to ask for special legislation for
law enforcement.

His first striking .utterance was
that political differences need not
and should not interfere with the
performance of official duties-a
declaration timely and significant.
Said he, "Duripg the four years of
official life that are to begin today,
l cannot ask or desire any more
fair or coneiderate treatment from
my associates in the government
of this great state than l am sure
the retiring governor will willingly
testify he has received from his
associates during the four years
which are today brought to a
close"
About home rule for the cities he
said, "The party that have the
honor to represent stands pledged
to give homo rule to the people OF
the large cities of the state, and
that promise, in so far as l can ac-
complish, will be faithfully kept"
And he gave emphatic denial to
the Democratic statement that
such home rule means lax law en-
enforcement and the lifting of the
lid, when he said "Home rule neon,
no such thing" He then explained
that he stands by the declarations
made in his first campaign speech
in which he expressed confidence
in the desire and abilite OF the
| people of the cities to have tn,
laws Of the state enforced ani
pledged law enforcement in th'
cities whatever may be the out

ANDERSON BEHIND BARS HERE
A Plot to Break Jail at Mexico In
spires Audrain' Sheriff TO Bring
Anderson Here for Safety.

Montgomery City's excellent
County Jail is appreciated.
Another famous prisoner, Lu-
ther Anderson, charged with
the murder of August Wagner in
Audrain County was brought here
Monday night and placed under
the care of Sheriff Earnest. A
plot has been revealed by trusty
of the Mexico Jail which if con-
8 umatcc was to deliver every
pr isoner in the Jail that cared to
"crawl out" of a hole, which was
being drilled in Anderson's cell. /.
1t was also Tumored, that the
prisoners were to kill the sheriff,
his wife and deputy, if necessary
to escape, but this is denied by
A nderson, who admits that the
other prisoners were making an
e fort to escape, but he refused he
s ays to have anything to do with
the plot. Anderson discussed the
Audrain farmer murder and said /:
81 am victim of circumstance
an d charged with the crime simp-
ly because Wagner was friend
and associate of mine and we
were seen together before he was
found murdered. Wagner had
remained all night with me and
as l knew had over $780,, 1 had
an opportunity to have robbed
him, had l wanted to do so. Twas
the third man to visit Wagoner's
home and view the body, which
was found in the cellar, but I am
as innocent of committing this
crime as are these bars, which are
h olding me in this Jail. l think /
will be able to prove my innocence
but if I don't suppose they will
give me a life sentence, as I have
insisted on going to trial on the
charge of murder in the first de-
gree understand that life
prisoner has better show in the
penitentiary than one sent for
twenty-five years." 1t developed
that Anderson was arrested in this
County four years ago on the
charge of stealing horse at
Laddonia, which he sold at Wells
vile near here. The charge was
dis missed at preliminary trial.
When asked about this report
Anderson said: eyes took the
horse while / was intoxicated and
sold him at Wellsville, and when
l became sober l gave the money
back to the party and told him il
was not my horse. They arrested
me anyway. But after made 9
statement before Justice Miller al
Mexico, the case was dismissed
This was the second time / was
ever arrested, and if get out O
this it will be the last time, as
intend to live right.

Speaking of the system OF board
government in the cities he sug-
gested that bipartisan boards
should be authorized in order that
the election and the police ma
hinery may be taken out of poll
tics and made free from control OF
partizans. He said, "To my mind
the idea of an election unfairly
conducted is intolerable and ab-
horrent. And the control of the
machinery necessary for the con-
duct of elections in this state
should no more be in the hands of
one political party, to the exolu-
sion of the other, than should the
control of our public schools" He
suggested the simplification of the
ballot used in elections, so that
voters may vote mixed ticket as
easy as straight ticket, TT IS Sc
curing the independent exercise of
the franchise.
On the revenue question he made
several timely suggestions, in
c'uding the licensing and taxation
of m manufacturers and wholesale
dealers in spirituous liquors and
the and the inspection OF such
liquors as beer is inspected; tax
on inheritances; the taxation of
the capital stock of corporations,
and tax on druggists who re-
tail liquors. He stated, too. that
the legal valuation of assessable
property should be brougat about
in come manner, as the stste re-
quires that such property shall be
listed at it's cash or marketable
value; and he suggested that the
tax-dodgers should be looked at
ter and made to pay the pen atty
of falsely listing their taxable
property.
On the question of education,
good roads, the regulation of pub
lie utility corporations, railroad
freight and passenger rates, ETC.,
etc., he reiterated what he said
during the campaign to the peo-
pie all over the state, and showed
that as governor, elected and in
augurated, he had no promise to
recall, no policy to suspend, no
apology. for any utterance made,
but that he has advanced to the
point where he is ready to bend
every energy to the accomplish.
ment of all that he promised the
people when q candidate for gov.
ernor. His address was, in large
part, reiteration of his opening
speech made at Springfield wher
he began his campaign, and HI
laid special stress upon the very
things which the Democrats sale
he would not adhere to.
Every Republican party leade
who heard him was ready to chal

have been expressed about tn
policy he would pursue when in
