The extraordinary effort f
the St. ouis Republic to
compel the destruction Of the
ballots cast at the general elect
ion OF 1908 is an open conf ss-
ion that those ballots may
prove detrimental to the Demo-
cratic party and may discredit
the election Of Democratic
officials Else why this con-
tention over the duty Of officials
to burn the ballots? If they
are honest ballots and were
honestly counted, what harm
can result to any one by their
preservation?
The people are not so dull
that they cannot understand
the motive back Of the effort Of
the Republic and Democratic
lawyers to have the ballots cast
in the election of 1908 destroy
ed. If they go into court to
have them destroyed, it will
prove that they have a desper-
ate purpose to be accomplished.

Wonder why the St. Louis Re
public does not attempt n explain
why Democratic legislatures and

opinions from Democratic law r.

ever since the latter was inaug.
urated. When the Legislature,
on joint ballet, elected MIN Sen
ator, after the Folk forces h d
tamely declined to contest tie
regularity Of his nomination, hv
violated the prupriety of the oc
casion by making al attack upon
all the policies that Gv.rnor
had, a few days before, advuclt L
ed in his inaugural address. "A
few months later he opposed up.
on the floor Of the United States

the request OF Governor HadlrN
asking an investigation uy the
Interstate Commerce C,mmi~s-
ion of the railroad rates west Vt

last November, when there was
no particular occasion or jl~ui
cation for it, Senator Stone made
another attack upon Governor
Hsdley nased upon what h e
characterized a S h e extrava.
gsnces of his administration.
The Governor treated with in
difference these charges, b I
when he went into the Sixth dis
trict and found Senator Stone
bad preceded him, repeating the
charges OF eItravagances. 9 h G
Governor remarked tbat he wish
ed thst the distinguished Senator
was an issue in the campaign. a.
he would then feel more certain
OF the results. Add be also add
ed that he did not regard the re-
suit Of the last election es an
honest expression OF the opinion
OF the people Of Missouri, a. he
did not believe the votes in the
senatorial primary had b 2 q u
honestly counted. S enstor
Stone then demanded that Gov
ernor Hsdley give the reasons on
which he based this statement,
and in this way the controversy
started.
When Senator Stone thought
the ballots mad been destroyed
he bitterly complained because
the opportunity TO recount them
and thus prove the honesty Of hi
nomination, o longer existed.
Hhen Governor Hadley advised
him that the ballots we're in ex.
istsnce aud asked him and Gov
ernor Folk to consent u q re-
count, the Senator refused his
consent on the grounds that b.
would be unconstitutional 10 re-.

The only thing t h e average

an ugly prejudice or transient
