Should Be Re-submitted.

It's hard to explain how 50 wor-
thy a proposal as the eleventh
amendment could lose at the polls
last week. There's hardly fair
minded person in Missouri but is
anxious to see the Missouri state
university rank with those of
other states and hardly a voter
but will concede that the mill tax
asked for by the defeated amend
ment is both just and badly need
ed. And yet a majority of these
voters cast their ballot to continue
to skimp and embarass the univer-
sity, to force its loyal friends to de-
scend to common lobbying to get
the very inadequate allowance
from the state legislature, to turn
away scores of students from each
overcrowded department every
year and to give up the best men,
bers OF the faculty to other better
financed schools as fast as they de-
velop calibre and arrive at distinc-
ton. Ask any one of the men
who voted mo" on the eleventh
amendment if he would wilfully
force these conditions to obtain at
the university and he will reply
with a stronger mo" than appear
ed on his ballot Nov. Sth. SUBJ
init the eleventh amendment again,
singly and alone, without the
handicap of the company of the
other proposed amendments and
we believe it would carry by
vote of three to one at the small
est. The mill tax was simply
beaten by the company it kept,
and for no other reason.

last weeks News were wrong in
only one instance 1t developed
from later returns that Ross had
beaten Dykeman by small vote.
We did not then lave the result in
the third legislative district, which
was carried by the Democrats, CIV
ing them solid delegation to the
legislature nl.this county in spite
of its normal Republican majority.
The atte1itiofluf the late lament
ed James ]. Jeffries who failed to
come back" is hereby directed
to a certain recent performance by
Col. w. II. Phelps. of Jasper coun-
| ty, Missouri.
Barton countys election of n
solid Democratic county ticket &C.
casioned some surprise, as the Re-
publicans were thought to be GER
tain of several offices.
Come to St. Louis wet was
the plea of the big brewery town
to the rural districts. From the
looks of the returns we judge that
was about the only way you could
arrive there.
Many people here, irrespective
of party, regret the defeat of Judge
Fl. c. Timmonds, Democrat, for
supreme judge Judge Timmonds,
who is now located at Kansas City,
formerly lived at Lamar. and serv-
ed several years as circuit judge.
Probably no more able or popular
jurist ever held the circuit judge
ship of his district, and that is no
faint praise when you recall some
Of the men that have held the pos
ition-for instance Stratton, Shafer
and Thurman, the last named be-
ing the present judge.
Louie" Thomas surprised near
ly everybody by leading the Re-
publican county ticket, as most of
the wise ones doped Bob Sloan to
capture that honor again. Bob
was an exceedingly close second,
but Thomas led him by "a nose.
The first hint of just why Col.
Phelps wanted to go to the legis-
lature may possibly be Cleaned
from last Wednesdays Webb City
Register, which is boosting the
speeding colonel very strongly for
the governorship two years hence.
The fellow that bets Phelps will be
his partys choice for Mr.. Hadley's
chair in 1912 isn't throwing his
money away by any means.
The prohibition question is re-
sponsible for lots of funny things.
For instance, how many men, last
spring, did you hear make this re-
mark? I'm opposed to local OPP
ton, but if | ever get chance to
vote for statewide prohibition I'll
do it." Now, how many of those
fellows kept their word, do you
suppose?
Also, behold the spectacle of the
brewers tapping the money barrel
mercilessly last spring at Joplin to
carry that town against local OPP
ton, and witness how altogether
lovely this same local option had
become in their eyes when the
question of state wide prohibition
came up.
Chicken No, you lose. Thorn

ticket. Cash up.

Nav Fish Trout

The trout season will open to-
morrow morning and will remain
open until September 1st. Many
Of the fishermen in this city have
been getting ready for the sea-
son and it is possible that most
of the streams in the county
will be tried within the next few
days. The fine weather we have
had this spring insures the good
condition of the streams at this
time. There should be plenty of
fish. It must be remembered
by fishermen that no trout un-
der six inches in length may be
kept, but should be imm ediately
thrown back into the water.
Neither is it lawful for anyone
to catch more than forty five
fish in any one day. It is well
for trout fishermen to act accord
ingly as the penalty for violating
any of the provisions of the law
is a fine of at least ten dollars or
by both fine and Imprisonment.
