AssaiinR Francis.

The methods by which the
friends of other Democratic can
didates for United States senator
are seeking to discredit and de-
feat David Il. Francis should go
far toward assuring his success in
securing the nomination, if there
is still a spirit of fair play and
sense of justice left in the Dem
ocratic party of Missouri. The
fact that all these vicious at
tackS are concentrated upon the
man from st, Louis is conclusive
proof that he is regarded as the
strongest candidate and feared
by all the rest. 1t is a demon
stration of the old atavistic idea
of the battle royal in which
when a number of gladiatorS vera
put into the arena to fight among
themselves until only a single
man remained, at the very out
set all the fighters sought the
life of the best and strongest COM
petitor.
Most of the Democratic candi-
dates for senatorial honors are
making their bids for votes as
common demagagues, discarding
honest argument and ~resorting to
wild appeals to the people against
corporate and private wealth. Mr..
Reed of this city, who is really
capable of better things, has join
ed the bowling chorus and is
trying to incite the mob to pre-
Judice and passion against Mr..
Francis because Francis hap
pens to be a nan of proven bust
ness and executive ability. 1t
now happens to suit the pur-
poses of Mr.. Reed to turn against
sound methods and sane policies,
to which he largely owes his
present reputation as a man OF
public affairs, and grovel in the
political mire.
Every citizen of Missouri who
has lived in the state long enough
to become informed knows that
David r. Francis is in every way
worthy of the best position his
party can give him. This does
not mean necessarily that he
should be sent to the United
States senate, but it does mean
that he alone, of all the Demo.
cratic field, is fully worthy OF
the support of level-headed bust
ness men. Attempts have beer
made to connect Mr.. Francis will

they have failed miserably. Ii

campaign. It's a mighty sacred
doctrine, brother.

Party platforms may not bel
sacred but every good party man
abides by them for they represent
the will of the maiority-and
from the day when Thomas JET
ferson penned the immortal Dec
laration of Independence up to.
the present hour, majOrities as
they have expressed themselves
in party platforms and legiSla-
tive halls have formed our gov
ermental policies. Both the Den-
oeratic and Republican state
platforms are pledged to local
option as against Statewide Pro
hibition.
When the prohibition amend
ment was pending before the
State legislature it was carefully
estimated by those familiar with
the fiscal affairs of Missouri
that the loss of revenue incident
to the abolition of the liquor traf-
fic in this State would n~eceSsitate
an increase in the State tax
levy of about forty-five per
cent, and hence the w%ell-known
tax-rider was attached to the
amendment. The prohibition
amendment, as is well known,
was rejected by the State Legis-
lature. But the calculations
then made by State officials and
tax experts still hold good today.
The Tenth Constitutional Amend
ment makes no provision what
ever to meet the deficit which
is certain to occur in the event
of its adoption, but the expenses
of maintaining the State govern
ment must he met, and an in
crease in the State tax levy
will follow as certainly as if it
were provided in the amendment.
The State records are public re-
cords and are open to in
spectiOn. The Missouri taxpayer
who, before voting for Prohibit
ion, fails to inform himself
as to the cost of it will have none
but himself to blame.
The adoption Of the Tenth
Constitutional Amendment can
have but one effect in the dry
! territory of Missouri That ter.
ritory cannot be made more dry
than it is. The liquor traffic
cannot be more rigidly excluded
from local option counties than
it now is. The only possible eff.
feet of prohibition in the dry
1 country will be the increase il
: the State tax levy, which viii
: be felt by every taxpayer in Mis-
souri,, whether he resides in
y local option county or not.

Gates of temperance have been

der the local option law. Should
they not be content to fight it
out along these lines in the future
as in the pastY
The census figures which have
just been made public show that
Missouri needs to get down to
business as never before if we
are to hold our enviable position
in the SiSterhOOd of States. We
need to tell the outer world about
our matchless resources and our
limitleSS oppOrtunities-fOr to dc
this means not only that we will
attract thousands of newcomers
a substantial increase in the value
of every acre of land within our
boundaries. That such ends can
not be SubServed by voting upon
the State a measure which means
endless turmoil, agitation and
strife for the next twenty years
should be apparent to every
sensible citizen who views the
matter calmly for a moment. AnC
here is the point-to get mel
to think before they act. If thi'
lis done, Statewide Prohibition
will be defeated by 100000 ma
iority-and this result will mo
be a victory for common sens,
and the sacred American principl
of local self-government.
