AS ONE reads the accounts OF tie
Swope trial in Kansas City, in the
Kansas City Star, he cannot help
but be amused at it's studied eff
forts to keep from mentioning the
name of Jas. A. Reed, the ablest
attorney in the case. 1t has been
the policy of the Star to exclude
his name from it's columns, but in
this instance it has been impos-
sible to do so. The news account
calls him Mr.. Reed and j. A. Reed,
and in fact pursues a studied effort
to disguise the identity of the dis
tinguished man. 1t has been a
bitter pill to the Star to ever mem
ton his name. Missouri, however,
has nc more able and fearless at
torney, and upon his ability alone
he is commanding the attention OF
the state in his profession and he
will be one of Missouri's most
highly esteemed citizens in law
and politics long after Nelson OF
the Star is calling for a drop OF
water TO cool his parched tongue.

A KANSAS Judge has officially
granted a widow who runs a farm
permission to wear trousers. IL
seems to me that her petition to
him was superogatory, since she
might have, in her behalf, pleaded
the custom of the country. How
often do we hear the uncontradlct-
ed assertion, "she wears the

MISSOURI has never yet sent a
millionaire to the United States
Senate, and surely the Democrats
of the State, if the rule is to be
broken, will leave its transver-

Business do not make desirable
servants of the people, and oul
House of Lords is already to
urse-plethoric for the public
health.

Mr.. Buford has filed this Office the
past four years, and his many
friends point with pride to his rec
ord, insisting that he has fulfilled
every pledge made to the people.
Being a next-door neighbor of
ours, Iron county naturally feels
most kindly toward Senator Bu-
ford and will unquestionably give
him a hearty support. Mr.. Blu
ford says he has but one promise
to make in this campaign-and
that is, if he is successful, to work
for the best interests of his con-
stituents. A strong platform.

BRIBERY in the election OF
United States Senators by the
Legislatures has become OF mo-
notonous frequency. The develop
ments in Illinois are shameful, but
no more so than in other instances,
If the truth were known. Then
why not do away with subsequent
events of like character by electing
Senators as we do Representatives,
by the direct vote of the people?
Why has not a constitutional
amendment to that effect been
submitted? Because the Senators
have insolently defied the petit
tions Of their so-called constituents
and blocked the way. But the
day Of reckoning is not far off.

THE st. Louis Times: eli there
is anyone in Missouri who feels
that the Democratic senatorial
contest is settled, that n would
do well to revise his estimates.
The fight in question will be one
Of the warmest this State has
known in a political history that
has been full of scrap. The
Francis candidacy is by no means
assured Of success. Folk is not
yet out Of the fight. Jim Reed OF
Kansas City has the country and
the Old Guard back of him. Men
like Wetmore will not support
Francis without a change Of heart,
and from this day until the pri-
maries are over the woods will
ring with echoes Of the Pertle

lose in the coming contest for the

capital question been settled even

keep the capital permanently would
be no great thing for Guthrie; and
to keep it FOR few years only un

The capital proclamation was
