DEMOCRATS ISSUE HAND
BOOK.
Publication Gives Important Par
ty Statistics and Sheds Light
on Republican Extrav-
agances.

The Missouri Democratic handbook
for the campaign of 1910 has just
been issued by the Democratic State
Committee. II contains forty pages
of facts, statistics and arguments, and
was compiled by the State Commit
tees publicity department under the
direction of j. Kelley Pool.
A list of the members of the State
Committee and of its subsidiary conf
mittees is followed by the names of
the Democratic State nominees, those
of the Democratic congressional NOM
inees and congressional district chair
men, the Democratic State senatorial
nominees, the county chairmen and
the nominees for the House Of Rep
reSentatives. Biographical sketches
Of the nominees for State offices, and
the Democratic State platform occupy
the first half of the booklet.
Under the heading, "The Para
mount Issues" which are stated to
be 1) the riotous extravaganza of
the Republican party in state and ma
ton, and, (2), the Payne-Aldrich tar
if of 1909, the handbook exposes Re-
publican extravaganza in Missouri, as
shown by the records of State offices
since the incoming of the Hadley adj
ministration, and uses the admissions
of President Taft, Senator Carter and
Senator Aldrich to show what enor-
nous waste has characterized the
administration at Washington.
Other matter quotes from former
Governor Dockery's keynote speech
Of September % on "The Democratic
Record in Missouri" and from ad-
dresses by Congressman Champ
Clark and presents a number Of the
more salient iniustices which aeI
wrought under the present tariff.

truSt-frlar lands Phllllppine scandal
until after the November election.
And, last but not least from the
standpoint of relative Importance, the
the National Monetary commission, Of
of which Senator Aldrich is chairman,
will not make its report recommend
ing a central government bank-until
after the November election.
Another Case of Larceny.
The national republican platform of
1892 contained the following para
graph:
eve denounce the efforts of the
Democratic majority of the House Of
Representatives to destroy our tariff
laws piecemeal, as manifested by
their attacks upon wool, lead and lead
ores"
Times have changed. Republican
candidates for Congress, upon the ad-
vice of President Taft, are now advo-
eating and promising tariff revision
"piecemeal" with the intimation that
the schedules enumerated will be the
first ones tackled. In other words,
the Republicans have adopted anoth-
err Democratic idea.
Why Meat is High.
Thirty-five per cent is the amount
of profit Armour & Co. forced the
public to pay last year. This became
known through a statement submitted
by Armour & Co. in connection with
the listing of bond issue of $50, 0O0,-
600 on the stock exchange. The
company by its own showing made
a gross profit of $40, 900 for the
year 1901 on a capital stock of So
100000 and earned a surplus of
81, l27, 1926, or the equivalent Of d.
vidend of $3.50 per cent. AS the price
of beef was boosted with the begin
ming of 1910, it would appear that in
the opinion of Armour & Co., a $3.50
per cent profit on capital stock is not
ample, even though the commodity
involved is one of the necessaries Of
life. Armour & Co. is one of the beef
trust firms which enjoyed perfect i'm
munity from prosecution by the gov
eminent, until Federal Judge Lands,
of Chicago, an insurgent, forced the
Taft administration to take cognizance
Of the fact that the beef trust was
illegally holding up the public.
The Postal Banks Cheat.
Twelve hundred and fifty banks in
various parts Of the United Stales al
ready have made application to the
p0stoffice department to be designat-
ed repositories for postal savings
funds, and 648 postqasters have
made requests for the establishment
Of postal savings banks in theirsof-
fees. About 90 per cent Of the APP
plicans viii be disappointed. The
government Intends to-start but one
or two postal banks in each state for
the present Some day, perhaps.
possibly when q central government
band which can Be manipulated BY
Wall street comes into existence, the
postal bank system may be extended.

l like to watch my mother sew,
Her needle is so bright,
And il runs in and out 80 fast,
A little fame of light.
She lets me bring my little chair
And have so me sewing, too;
And / am always sorry when
Nam and 1 are through.
And all the time my mother sews
She tells some nice long tale,
o. lovely little fairy folks
Or maybe Jonan's whale.
l like her stories best of all,
Because they end just right,
Aud give me things 10 tell myself
When left alone at night.
