Governor Hadley's press agent at

commissioner in st. Louis to discredit

be Democrats, is so fragrant and indie
cent that it is meeting with the con-
demnation of the labor organizations

a thousand times worse is the meth
DDS of his Kansas City police in an ef-
fort to carry the city elections by in
timidating white voters and cajoling
the negroes, licensing them in their
depredations, even to the extent Of
assaulting white women upon the
streets. If one-tenth of the stories as
