jects and made a great many RECON-
mendations. Referring to the finan-
cial conditions of the State, the Gov

Butler, MO. oct. Attn, l9lU.
Editor Of The Butler Times:-I
have read many of the speeches of
Mr.. Reed. This clipping from one
made in Maryville last Saturday is a
sample of all he has made on this
point:
"You told me-" he said, "that you
ought to send a man to the Sen
ate who stands in with them, one
who has never done anything to hurt
them or make them mad, who, by
soft language and polished manners,
can go to Washington and obtain
from them a share of the swag."
Poised on his toes and with right
hand aloft, he continued: 81 want to
say here and now, if ever | 90 to the
United States Senate, it will not be as
an agent to bring back to Missouri
any division of spoils, swag or a
divvy of taxes wrung from the peo-
ple."
have also read a dodger circulated
here last week sent out by Reed
press bureau headed "The Bread
Line" also another dated Joplin sent
out by the same bureau charging the
Democrats with having stuffed the
registration in st. Louis to perpetrate
frauds in the election for Mr.. Francis
benefit. The Democrats of this state
ought to be tired of this rot. II would
be real funny if it had not in the past
proved SO disastrous. Six years ago
Mr.. Reed in our court house and in
every town and hamlet in the state
denounced Mr.. Folk and his friends
in the most outrageous manner. He
pictured Mr.. Folk as a monster of
fraudulent claims, he was lurid in his
denunciation and vituperation (his
principal stock in trade). What was
the result? Mr.. Folk had some very
warm Republican friends and was
elected, every other candidate on the
ticket was defeated, a Republican
legislature was elected, a standpat
Republican elected to the United
States Senate defeating General Cock
rell, and several Democratic con-
gressmen defeated. Again two years
ago Dave Ball and his cohorts opened
up the same tactics as Reed had four
years before and has adopted now,
Ball had the little red school house on
the hill disappearing and the school
money spent for the rich. Coward
was the candidate Of that class. His
friends were perpetrating frauds in
his behalf, all appeals to class preiu-
dice, party prejudice, charging fraud
to fellow Democrats and antagonizing

The Frisco Corn Show for Bates
County.

The management of the Frisco
Railroad believes in modern and mp
tO-date methods in farming. They
believe in them so strongly that they
think they can afford to send a man
or boy from every one of the coun-
ties in Missouri through which their
lines run to the University of Missou-
ri to study these methods as taught
in the College of Agriculture. They
have decided TO send these men to
the Short Winter Course in Agricul-
ture at the University commencing
November lst next winter and to pay
the expenses of each. To decide
who shall be sent they will hold a
corn show in each county in coop
Grafton with the College of Agricul-
ture. The man or boy who shows
the best ten ears at this show will be
sent to the Short Course at the rail-
roads expense.
The corn show for Bates county
will be held at Butler on Oct. 9th,
1910, and Mr.. P. M. Allison is in
charge of the show. Any boy or
man who is l6 years old or over and
lives in Bates county can enter a
sample of corn in this show. Ii you
win the scholarship it means that the
Frisco Railroad will send you to the
Short Winter Course at the Uuiver-
sity beginning November LIST and pay
all Of your expenses for the full term
of IA weeks. If you can win that
with ten ears Of corn, isn't it worth
trying for? It doesn't cost anything

the lower house is Republican and
several Republican congressman
elected. Now Democrats, how long
are you going to submit to your party
being disorganized by such methods?
Mr.. Francis is charged with being an
occasional Democrat as he failed
to vote for Mr.. Bryan in 1896 not
withstanding the fact that he was to
the front advocating the election of
Mr.. Bryan and the ticket in 1900 and
was eagerly sought for by the con-
vention in Denver in 1908 to be a
running mate with Mr.. Bryan. Reed
claims the support of the Folk men
because short time ago he became
an occasional" Folk man by shout
ing he was for Folk for President,
yet Folk is the same he was six years
ago, has the same principals making
about the same speeches, Reed is the
same Reed, compare his speeches
now and six years ago. They are the
same kind. Why the changer
But to recur to the charges against
Francis and other Democrats as we'll
as the appeals to classes, locality and
party preiudices.
This Bread line article was written
by H. P. Mason, editor of the Fayette
Democrat-Leader and was afterwards
gotten out in the shape of a dodger
for distribution. Commenting on the
letter sent out by Mr.. Carleton ask
ing business men to vote for Mr..
Francis, he claims the breadliner is
the class that need the legislation, he
defines the breadliner as a class that
if without work 80 days would be in
the bread line and a public charge
He depicts, in narrowing language,
the awful condition of the breadliner
and his kids; how the breadliner
looks at his poor kids in need of feed
and clothes which he cannot provide,
land a gulp comes into his throat. :"
Now why try and excite this class
against the business class? Mr.. Ma
son how many minutes would the
breadliner and his poor kids be away
from the breadline il il were not for
the business class? OF course, the
farmer is not breadliner and If Mr..
Reed is going to give the breadliner
all of his attention, as Mr.. Mason says
he will, what is to become of the
farmer?
Now, Mr.. Reed and Mr.. Mason, tell
the breadliners and others how Mr.,
Francis has Disseminated in favor of
the rich and against the breadliner.
He has been in public life for more
than 30 years. As Mayor Of St. Louis
he was over hundreds of these bread
liners fol. four years; as Governor for
four years he had much influence

Champ Clark's Keynote Plat
form.

tot "s
In the keynote speech at the ban
quet rendered to Missouri Democratic
editors in st. Louis September %,
1910, Hon. Champ Clark pledged the
Democratic party to do the following
things if entrusted with power in the
Nation:
|. A reduction of the tariff to a
revenue basis.
2. Increase the trade of the United
States by reciprocity treaties with for
eign nations, particularly with Cen
trail and South America and Canada.
3. Abolish all superfluous offices
there has been nearly 100000 new
offices created in the last nine years.
1, Cut appropriations to the needs
of the government economically and
effectively administered, thereby re-
ducing the burdens of the taxpayers,
8. Restore our merchant marine
to its ancient commanding position on
the high seas, which Democrats once
gave to il and which has been lost
Though Republican, maladminiStra-
ton.
6. Submit a constitutional amend
ment providing for the election Of
United States Senators by a popular
vote.
7. Strengthen the antitrust laws
and enforce them in every feature,
especially enforcing the criminal part
of them so theoretically that the vio-
lators thereof would cease their ne
farious operations-not only fine the
trust criminals, but send them to
prison, where they properly belong.
8. Enact measures providing for a
real, comprehensive conservation of
our natural resources, so that trust
magnates and thieves shall not grab
and appropriate to themselves the
heritage of our children and our chill
dren's children.
9. Provide for the Improvement
of our vast system of waterways on
an adequate and comprehensive plan,
so as to make it a real and most
valuable factor in our commercial
growth and prosperity.
10. Set the nine committees on ex-
penditures in the nine departments of
the government to work in earnest
and industriously discharging their
duties by finding out and exposing
the extravagances of the Republicans,
thereby digging out the facts on
which to base economics.

all that is necessary now is that they

show when the Judge arrives. As

with the legislation. Was il used
against the breadlinerS? On the con-
trary did not both of his messages
call attention to the greed and grasp
ing power of the corporation? As
the head and front of the worlds fair
in St Louis in 1902 he caused the
employment of thousands of these
breadliners. Did he discriminate
against them, as Secretary Of the In
terror, did he rob the people of their
property and rights for Guggenheim
and Morgan as the present Secretary
of the Interior, Mr.. Ballinger, is ac-
cused Of doing? Has there a gulp
come into the throat Of any of these
breadliners because of his acts? Come
to the front and do it now and not
wait until the week before the cleo
ton, then flood the state with mali
cious stories as has been done many
times before.
What has Mr.. Reed done to entitle
him to his claim as a philanthroplst
and champion of the breadliners?
He was prosecuting attorney OF
jackson county and mayor of Kansas
City, then be became attorney for the
Metropolitan Street Railroad. While
acting as such attorney many bread
liners were manned or lost their lives
by the said street railroad, and MIR.
Reed sat up night and used his every
endeavor to prevent these MANNED
breadliners and the widows and or
phans of the dead ones from getting
just compensation for their loss, No
doubt lump came into the throat OF
these MANNED and the widows and
orphans of the dead breadliners when
their claims were lost by the efforts
of philanthropist Reed. Oh yes! |
hear you say, Reed did only his duty
as attorney for the railroad, but Mr..
Reed did not have to sell his services
and philanthropy to the railroad. He
could step down and out from the
road and give his services and phil
anthropy to the breadlinerS, He was
not as unselfiSh as Mr., Francis, who
gave his services for a long time to
the exposition free. The breadliners
and others but principally the great
State of Missouri received the bene-
fit. But Mr.: Reed could not afford
to do that. You know the truth to be
that Mr.. Reed was out for the money
that was in it. | guess you might
put Mr.. Reed down as an occasion
all philanthropst.
Mr.. Reed claims that the million
aires and rich business men of st.
Louis are supporting Mr.. Francis and
therefore he is the candidate of the
millionaires and rich business men,
to the exclusion of the "breadliners. I"
Now, Mr.. Reed, tell us whom the
milliOnaireS and rich business men of
Kansas City are supporting. Are
they not for-you? Then why are
you not a candidate of the millionaires
and rich business men or does it only
apply to Mr.. Francis? Mr.. Francis
is making a dignified campaign for
the party. He is not crying down
his opponent and disorganizing the
party for selfish ends.
| Now, Mr.. Voter, size these men up
calmly. You know the good book
says "By their fruits you shall know
them" Don't allow your preiudices
to carry you away, ask yourselves
what have these two men done to
show they are good for the interests
of the State of Missouri.
Respectfully submitted to your pc
rusal and calm judgment on the 9Th
day of November next.
