CRAFTSMANSHIP vs.. ORATORY.

There seems to be a disposition
on the part of the proponents of
James A. Reed to lay much en-
phasis on his superior o%ratOrical
powers as a reason for his nom
nation in this United States
senatorial contest.
We would not be considered as
essaying to disparage oratory. 1t
is indeed a great faculty.
source of entertainment and di-
version. 1t fires the fancy, stirS
the emotions, and, if of the prope
brand, stimulates patriotism.
But oratory without states
manship-the ability to success
fully devise and initiate construct
i've legislation calculated for the
best interests of the people is
like faith without works.
After all is said and done it
is the ability to do things that
counts. We readily concede Mr..
Reeds great command of Ian
guage, his well-rounded senten-
ces, his stirring appeals and his
mastery use of invective. AS a
public speaker and as its repre-
sentative in the United States
Senate, however, Missouri would
have no cause to apologize for
David r. Francis. For twenty
five years past his voice has been
heard throughout the nation pro
claiming the advantages of Mis-
souri,. her commercial, industrial
and educational opportunities,
There is scarcely a State in the
entire Union but has entertained
him as its guest. He is without
doubt the best known Missourian
today. Moreover. when the
countries Of Europe failed to
heed the appeals Of commission.

9randeSt exhibition OF their re
sources ever made in this
country.
Always an able and convincing
champion Of Democratic princi-
plies on the stump, in 1908, when
William j. Bryan addressed the
people of Missouri in behalf of
Democracy, who was it but
our Dave who was called to
accompany him on his tour across
the State adding his appeal to
Bryan's for support of the Demo
cratic ticket. Nor did he stop
there, but into the very strong
holds of the encmy's country be-
took himself, sent by the Nation
al Committee, to expound Demo
cratic doctrines and to urge sup
port Of Democratic candidates in
New York, New Jersey, West
Virginia, Indiana and Illinois.
For versatility in public speak
ing David R. Francis need yield
place TO none. There are few
subjects connected with the af-
fairs of ordinary life that he
has not touched upon. ThOus-
ands will remember how through
out the Worlds Fair he delight
ed audiences from every section
of the country. 1t was nothing
unusual for him to address three
or four gatherings in one day,
always sending those attendant
upon them away with a sense Of
pleasure and profit that they had
come.
Mr.. Francis public utterances
are notably free from bitterness
and sarcasm. An optimist in
temperament, he sees the bright
side of things. He is what we
would call a "good-feeling fell
low" He likes his fellow-man,
and his natural inclination is to
believe him honest until proven
otherwise His amiable DISPOSE
ton and kindly human sympathy
shine out in his pleasing manner
and magnetic personality. Al
though independent in thought
and firm in his convictions, he
has no fault to find with those
who honestly differ from him
in their opinions on any matter.
Rarely. indeed. does Mr.. Francis
make an enemy. Like all men
who have achieved prominence,
there are many who feel unkind-
ly toward him, but they are in
variablv men to whom he has
given no cause for personal Of
Tense, but who misconstrue his
motives or have been deceived by
Misrepresentation concerning his
character and career. No one
can shake the hand of David r.
Francis or engage him in con-
~versation for five minutes with
out being convinced of his int
gritty, unflinching devotion to
duty and high sense of honor.
But it is Mr.. Francis faculty
of accomplishing things that has
been the secret of his success, and
that commends him to the intelli-
gent and progressive people of
Missouri. As a Senator he will
take high place among those who
pay tribute to the resources and
advantages of his native State.
But he will do more. His keen
insight and his indefatigable en-
ergy, proven beyond perad-
venture of doubt, will give Mis-
souri, a representative in the
upper house of Congress who
will see that her needs are well
attended to and her interests con-
scientiously subserved.

PREFERS SAN QUENTIN
AND BASEBALL TO JAIL
Minstrel Shows Help Draw Free
man to State Prison

Preferring San Quentin to the county
Jail in order that he may serve part of
his sentence while waiting to hear the
result of an appeal, w. II. Freeman,
sentenced to three years in prison by
Judge Willis, disregarded the advice of
his attorney yesterday and is now on
his way to San Quentin.
Freeman was sentenced for burglary,
the jury finding him guilty of stealing
copper wire from the Pacific Electric
company. An appeal from the sem
tence was entered in the appellate
court. 1t probably would take about
nine months to secure a decision, and
Freeman, figuring on this and hearing
that the prisoners in San quentin enjoy
baseball games and minstrels, decided
to desert the simple life in the county
Jail.
If the appellate court decides against
Freeman he will have served that much
of his sentence. If the higher court re-
verses the decision, however, he will
have served time in the "pen" for moth
ing and will be tried again. Freeman
is somewhat of a gambler in spirit and
is willing to take a chance, but attaches
of the criminal court say that he has a
"cinch," and has "a sure thing" by
going to prison.

WANTED--GOOD MAN To
TAKE CHARGE OF PARKS
Commissioner Silent Plans to
Grow Superintendent as He
Would Delicate Plants

Difficulties still confront the parl
commission in the selection of parl
superintendent. The right man has MOI
yet been agreed on.
"Have you the picture of the new
park superintendent with you?" asked
Commissioner Silent jocosely of Com
missioner OMelveny yesterday. MI
O'Melveny. who has been intrustec
with the duty of selecting the superln-
tendent, replied that he hadn't.
Commissioner Silent outlined a plan
that if carried into effect will pro-
vide future park superintendents II
abundance. His plan was heartily ap-
proved by the commission and copy
of il ordered submitted to the city
council and the civil service commits
sion. He said:
The complete reorganization OF
our park labor system should be i'm
mediately undertaken and carried
to completion without waiting for
the appointment of a permanent su-
perintendent With the labor force
as now organized and with the
present restraints on our freedom
of action, no permanent good re-
suits can be obtained. Park culture
and park gardening has long ago
become a profession. Many OF our
best institutions of learning provide
special courses and graduate their
students in those lines, yet that fact
never seems to have been acted on
by our park management. While
the world over, special training for
special employments has been recog-
nized and acted upon as necessity,
and while every able business man
in ali lines of employment has
made his employees, where prac-
ticable. a school of training to
greater proficiency, rewarding the
most worthy by proper advance
ment, etc, our park management
for twenty years past has been and
is today the same inefficient ma
chine, with an unframed head,
staff of assistants as a rule still
less trained for their special work,
and a body of laborers rarely, II
ever. selected for their fitness, with
not a perceptible step taken to
modernize the work, or to follow the
well tried examples of other local
tiles. Assuming that in due time
we will be able to find a well
trained and forceful superintendent,
I suggest the following plan Of re-
organizing our park force: Com
mencing at the bottom, let us select
a staff of twenty or twenty-five
young lads as apprentices, who can
be trained to knowledge and ef-
ficiency by actual experience in the
parks themselves. Provide for a
reasonable promotion, filling vacan-
cies as soon as the promotions oc-
cur. Provide for lectures in the
field. We have in this city several
very able young landscape archi-
tects who would for a reasonable
compensation render this valuable
service. l refer to Ernest Braunton,
