PEOPLE SERVED FIRST
PARTY POLITICS SECONDARY
WITH GOVERNOR HADLEY.

Governor Hadley is a great cam
paigner, and handles state issues in a
manner most pleasing to the people.
They like to know what is going on
at the state capital, and no is the man
to tell 'em about 1t.
Mr.. Hadley is more concerned in
doing things for the development and
uplifting OF the state than he is in
promoting the prosperity of the Re
publican party; therefore his words
have weight with all classes and N
ditons OF people. He In the ideal pub
lie servant, in that his policy is to
act solely in the interests of all Mis-
soprtans. Democrats and What-Nots as
we'll as Republicans.
In the good old Democratic DAYS
those who occupied the gubernatorial
chair in this state were politicians
first and servants OF the people after
ward. II any interest had to suffer
1t wasn't that of the Democratic party.
In fact, the dominant purpose of Bill
Stone, Dave Francis, Doctor Dockery
and Lonnie Stephens wal the perpetu-
alton OF the Democratic party in pow
er in this state. n they scrupled at
nothing which was calculated to fur
Their that end. If frauds on the bal
lot appeared to be necessary, the par
tisan police and the election machin-
cry in the big cities could be depend
cd upon to deliver the goods. Fair
elections were then seldom exceptions
and not the general rule. Today, I'M
der the Hadley regime. every Mis-
sourian is guaranteed the right to cast
n vote. and only one vote, and to
have that vote counted and returned
as cast. II Is not surprising that the
people of Missouri, without regard to
party. have a sincere liking for The
present Governor and that they are
pleased to greet him as a most well
come guest al all times and on all 90
casions.-apringfeid Republican

What Does II Meanf

Are these men now being honored
and followed by our Democratic
friends because they were prosecuted
and misrepresented by their party as
s%ociates in years gone by? Hardly!
Or, have they ~repented, reformed
and become the friends of pure poll,
tics and good government?
Not such angels! Not yet!
Or-what is more to the point
does the Democratic party in Missouri
need nen of their political expert
ence," skill and reputation in the pres
ent emergency?
1t would seem SO, as we behold
Shannon at the head Of the party, with
Phelps to advise him. and Phelps and
Farris trying to break into the House
of Representatives. And the ccnclu-
sion is more reasonable in view of the
fact that former Governor Folk has
been in Jasper county urging the Dem
ocrats of the First district to elect
Phelps, and is campaigning the state
under the direction of Shannon.
That these men have heretofore
been prosecuted is not even probable;
that they have changed their political
methods and their way of making a
living is not in evidence; but that
they are now acceptable and welcome
wher they were once regarded as Of
fensive and unwelcome is quite ap-
parent.
The Montgomery tribune. (Montgomery City, Mo.) 1892-1910, 1910-11-04

1t means that the Democratic party
In this state has been Shannonized;
that Shannonism is an issue in this
campaign; that such men as Shan
non, Phelps and Farris are not only
to be recognized by the Democrats
of the state. but followed by them, il
they a to be regarded as loyal to
their party.

Just how Mr.. Reed, who dominated
the convention that gave Shannon the
above quoted certificate, finally made
up with him and agreed to his cleo
ton as chairman Of the Democratic
State Committee is not known out
side Of a select circle, but undoubted-
ly joe and Jim Of the Demo

are now good friends politically, IL
not personally. They are in the same

"~Shannonism" In Kansas City poll

achievements Of these three c~hieftains
OF Democracy have been and are prac-
tically the same-and with the same
results on the personal prosperity of
each Of them.
Shannon and Phelps and Farris are
now in the limelight as types of Dem
ocrats who are to do things and to
be powerful in Democratic state poll

appreciated this fact when he said, in
