PROTECTING THE POLICE.

When the newspapers and the po-
lice boards commend the pension sys-
TEN to the voters of the state, 1t Is
time for the citizens to take notice.
Both the newspapers and the boards
are anxious to increase the efficiency
of the men. In each instance they are
6isinterested in the sense that adop-
ton of the system could not affect
the newspaper or the board, but they
are interested because they want the
department brought up to its maxi
mum strength.
Eastern cities have tried the pen
sion plan and they have found it ben
eficial. The three cities Of Missouri
are just as eager to improve condi-
tions as the more fortunate towns of
the east. In the first amendment, to
be submitted in November, the Mis-
souri, towns think they are only ask
ing for what is right and humanitari-
ali. Every Missourian who believes
in rewarding soldiers wounded on the
battlefield should support the plan to
keep from going to the poor house
those men who guard the cities just
as the soldier fights for the nation.

SCHOOL OF THE PEOPLE
STATE UNIVERSITY is THE cRA.
DIE OF OPPORTUNITY.
II Amendment Number Eleven Passes
Tuition in All Departments VIII
Be Absolutely Free.

The University of Missouri Is truly
"The School of the People," For many
years tuition has been free, and 1t was
only last year that, because of short
age OF funds, it became temporarily
necessary to charge small fee in
some departments. II Constitutional
Amendment No. IL, to be voted upon
November Sth, is adopted, 1t will be
possible to return to an absolutely
free tuition in every department.
Within the past few years hundreds
of students have been graduated from
the University who have earned every
dollar of their expenses during the
sessions. Among scores of instances
may be cited that Of lawyer in New
York City, who less than ten years
ago because of lack of money was
compelled in order to reach the Uni
versity to walk hundreds of miles
from his home in a South Missouri
community to Columbia. Through the
opportunities open to him on his ar
rival he was able to earn his way
through the University and have
uOuty III hio poShCl hS iShS'
Numerous cases, equally striking,
demonstrate that no Missourian need
go without a university education.
The Institution which offers such
advantages to the people of Missouri
must have a permanent and separate
means of support if it is to maintain
it's present standard. Rapidly increas-
ing enrolment requires corresponding
ly increased equipment and number OF
professors. The University today de-
pends entirely upon such uncertain
and varying appropriations as the leg
islature may find possible to make.
The Universities of many progressive
western states receive a definite and
certain portion of the States revenue.
Missouri should fare likewise.
Amendment No. IL, the last amend.
ment on the ballot to be voted upon
Nov. 8th, by providing an income Of
three-tenth of mill per dollar of
assessed valuation of property within
the state, guarantees free tuition and
a continuance of the benefits of Uni
versity Education to the people of the
state.

from three cents per hundred dollars

ten cents in Nebraska. Missouri Uni
versity deserves the adoption of Con-
stitutional Amendment No. Ii, to be
voted on in November. 1t guarantees
a permanent. separate income of
three-tenths of mill per dollar Of
assessed valuation to the University,
which on the average basis of Mis-
souri, assessment means only one cent
per hundred dollars actual value.

CITY NEWSPAPERS
|ND0RsE PENSION
URGE VOTERS TO ADOPT THE
AMENDMENT AS RECoGNl-
TlON FOR SERVICES.

When all Of the daily papers in a
large city like st. Louis are unani.
nous in advocating a measure, 1t is
pretty apt to be the best thing for
the people. There Is not dissenting
voice among the st. Louis papers in
connection with the proposed consti-
tutional amendment, to be submitted
in November, authorizing the three
large cities in Missouri to establish
pension for police officers injured
or disabled ON duty. In positive edi.
torials the st. Louis papers urge the
citizens of the state to vote for the
amendment on the ground that the
cities want the amendment for the
protection Of brave police officers. In
urging this upon the people the pa
pers are aware that the full expense
Of the proposed pension will rest upon
the city adopting 1t, and that not one
cent Of expense will fall on the coun-
try voters.
Here is what the papers have to
say:
The pension system for men who
serve the public is based on humani-
tartan principles. The amendment
proposed is merely a grant from the
state at large to the cities to establish
the pension, and the amendmept
should receive no opposition from any
source."-St Louis Times, August 4,
1910.
IF there is in st. Louis any organ
ized opposition to this amendment it
has not been located. st. Louis Re-
public, July 81, 1910.
THE proposed constitutional amend
ment granting power to cities of over
100000 inhabitants to establish pen.
sion system for disabled policemen is
a meritorious measure and should re-
ceive the friendly consideration of the
voters of Missouri."-St. Louis Globe
Democrat, August 2, 1910.
"The amendment should be embod-
led in the constitution so that the
legislature may be empowered to act.
A wise system of police pensions
would be beneficial. 1t would raise
the standard of service. Moreover,
police officers after years of service,
or after suffering disability in the
service, should be provided for under
the law."-St. Louis Post-Dispatch,
August 2, 1910.
THE amendment to the constitution
of Missouri providing for pensions for
| superannuated or disabled policemen
should be adopted. Men who give
1 hot tr th.. lt1 too
| should have something to look for
| ward to in their old age. Pension in
some cases would remove the tempta-
ton to graft."-St. Louis Star-Chron-
icle, July 27, 1910.
| Now, that is what the newspapers,
who watch the conditions of the po-
lice department every day out of the
year, have to say of the question. The
newspapers, located in the midst of
police work, are the best possible
judges on the hazardous and trying
duties of policeman. These papers
know to what elements the officers
are subjected.
Knowing these facts the newspapers
have joined in urging the adoption of
the amendment. They do this, too
because they know the necessity for
it, and not for any sentimental or self
ish cause.
Amendment No. / on the short bal
lot is the one that will give the three
| cities the right to properly provide
for the pension system. BY voting
'yes" on the amendment you vote to
endured by policemen.

Three Cities, but Will Not
Pay the Bills.

A wealthy man in the early days of
the Republic died leaving large leg
acy to his native city, Boston. He
stipulated that the amount should not
become available for long term of
years, and that it should then be spent
'to defend the city of Boston against
its enemies"
When the time came to apply the
amount, which had greatly increased.
to its purpose, the harbor of Boston
was so well fortified that the city
seemed to be in no danger from any
attack of hostile warships. To spend
more on Notifications would be waste.
Wise in their generation. the trus-
tees of the fund decided that the
greatest enemy of Boston, or of any
other city of their time. was igno-
rance, and that they would be best
fulfilling their trust by giving the
money to education. Courts upheld
this view, and the money was added
to the city's school fund.
The soldier who is wounded or In
firm receives pension. The teacher
whose body or mind gives way under
the hard task of instruction has nc
such last resource.
It is to provide for the comfort and
the self-respect Of those who give
their lives to this work that Amend
ment No. 2 will be- submitted to the
voters of Missouri at the coming cleo

FOR PUPILS SAKE
PENSION TEACHERS
AMENDMENT NO. 2 PROVIDES
MEANS OF IMPROVING QUAIL
tTY OF TEACHING.

In the last IL years the plan of pen
sioning aged and disabled employees
has been adopted by the largest and
best-paying railroads in the country.
The railroads did not take this step
rs matter Of philanthropy; they took
It rather in the interests of fairness,
of mutual good feeling and of the
good of the service"
Among the railroads and big indus
trial corporations which have adopt
ed pension plans in the period named
were the Union Pacific and Southern
Pacific, where the system was intro
duced by the late e. H. Hartman;
the Santa Fe, the Chicago & North
western, the Pennsylvania, the Stand
ard Oil Co. and the subsidiary COM
panies of the United States Steel Cor
poration.
Whatever is thought of the general
policies of some of the concerns
named, no one will question that they
know how to get the best work out of
their employees, and their adoption of
the pension plan proves that they rec
ognize its value.
They know that with pension sys-
tenn in force, a man who has worked
for them long enough to be valuable
will hesitate about accepting offers
from other concerns. even at consider
ably higher pay, which offer him no
security in age and infirmity.
They know that, with the haunting
fear of poverty removed, men will do
better work and make dividends for
the company. They know the value
OF the loyalty and good will of their
employees, net merely in working
hours, but all the time, and they have
found that the pension system has
done more than any other one thing
to create the spirit they desire to fos-
ter.
No benefaction in years has been so
hailed as the Carnegie Foundation for
pensions for retired college professors,
Its benefits have been recognized by
numerous colleges, which have altered
their charters materially to place
themselves in reach of the benefits of
the foundation.
Every argument which applies in
favor of pensions for railroad and cor
poration employees. or college profes
sors, applies with equal force in the
case of public school teachers. Not
as a charity or concession to them
but for the good of the schools and OF
the children educated in them, the
voters of Missouri are asked tc
scratch mo" and vote Yes" on
Amendment No. 2.
The proposed pension arrangement
will apply, as provided in the amend
ment, to st. Louis, Kansas City and
st. Joseph only. The rest of the state
will, not have to provide any part o.
these funds, which will be raised en-
tirely from local sources. The sue
cess of the plan in the three cities
1t is believed will lead to it's adoption
in other parts of the state.
The states in which such pension
provisions exist are Massachusetts
Illinois, Connecticut. Ohio, California
Michigan, Utah, Indiana, Virginia
New Jersey and Maryland.
