Monet Walloped Carthage.

Even if they couldn't beat the
Joplin leaguers the Monet Midgets
settled rather pointedly the semi
professional base ball championship
of the southwest when they beat
the Carthage trolley leaguers by
the one sided score of II to g..
The Carthage team is leading the
league but they didn't have a look
in at Monet. Frank Bridges,
who beat Monet for Jasper last
year, undertook to serve the foolers
for Carthage and had his ticket
punched for IS hits, including two
home runs. Some slamming, that.

THE LANDSLIDE

We notice a very large number OF
interviews in the papers giving opin-
ions and reasons for the great and
astounding landslide on Tuesday.
All with great accord concur in say
ing that it was a popular revolt
against Rooseveltism. CannOnism,
new nationalism, the high cost of liv-
ing and the iniquitous Aldrich-P Payne
tariff. The Democrats have 63 ma
iority in the House and a clear gain
of nine in the Senate, with absolute
control of the Legislatures Of a
number of heretofore Republican or
doubtful States. The autocratic and
dictatorial powers of the Speaker of
the House IF Representatives must
be curbed for the Speaker had gotten
to be so powerful that the will and
wishes of the people, through their
representatives, were even not heard,
much less needed. If this condition
had been allowed to go on popular
representative government in this
country would soon have persisted
from the earth, and the people, re-
gardless of heretofore party affili'
atoms, by their verdict at the polls
on Tuesday. have demanded re-
trenchment and reform in govern
mental expenditures and decrease
in the present tariff rates. These
tariff rates have fostered monopo.
lies and trusts which have fixed anc
controlled the cost of living. The
Democrats have been put in contro
Of the House. The Senate, It's
true, will be still Republican, but il
behooves the Democrats to shape
legislation in the House in response
to the popular demand and then lei
the Republican Senate bear the
burden, if it wishes, of stopping thi'
legislation.

clifford Plnchot, former forester Of the

Mr.. Pinchot has written a letter to

impossible to look with confidence TO

matter, and he declares that ut Is

THE DEFEAT OF THE BROAD

II is most unfortunate that the

rectly. was responsible for the de-
feat of this progressive legislation
Thornsburg precinct, for instance,
only showing one vote in favor OF
the law. 1t is. to say the least. a
narrow policy for the voters OF
Berkely district to pursue, since their
continual opposition to road improve
ment reacts on the whole county ana
will finally align the balance Of the
county against this district. 1t was
a small sacrifice that CORTLAND and
Chancellor districts asked OF the
other two; a simple request to them
that in view of the money spent by
CORTLAND and Chancellor to make
good roads over which the people OF
Berkely and Livingston will travel
free of charge that the latter go to
a small expense and adopt broad
tries in order that the new roads
might be preserved. Inasmuch as 1t
cost the other two districts nothing
10 build these roads and inasmuch as
their people will doubtless use them
with much pleasure and benefit. we
repeat that it was selfish in them not
To aid in their maintenance and
preservation by voting for the broad
tire law proposed. 1t was up to the
leading men in those districts to so
mould sentiment as 10 bring about
this result. but instead of doing this
il seems that in Berkely particularly
the leaders must have been active in
their opposition. Such a policy is
bound to react, and we believe that
the next election held on this ques-
ton will result in the overwhelming
adoption of the law. We trust that
the board of supervisors will see that
it is again submitted as quickly as
possible.
