A Prohibition Vote

Jefferson City, March 10.-Judge
William H. Wallace filed 4o,sO5 pro-
hibition signatures in the secretary
of states office this morning which
is more Than fifteen thousand more
than needed. The secretary OF
state must now put the prohibi-
ton amendment on the official bal
lot at the state election in Novem-
Der.
The petitions are from every
congressional district in the state
except the Tenth, Eleventh and
Twelfth districts of st. Louis. Thir-
teen districts were filed.
The brewers may attack the
validity of the amendment when
the secretary of state gives out
the ballot for printing.
The vote for state wide prohi-
bition will be held under the mi
tiative clause inserted in the state
constitution at the last revision of
that instrument. Under that pro-
vision any law can be submitted
to a vote of the people of the
state II lit has 8 per cent or the
signatures of the voters of three
fourths of the congressional dis
tricts of the state. After state
wide prohibition was defeated in
the state legislature it's friends be-
gan to circulate petitions for Q
vote under the initiative clause.

A striking feature in the Cudahy
scandal case in Kansas City is the
extraordinary fact that Mrs. Gu
daily is unable to tell right from
wrong. In her statement to the
public she makes all manner of
remarks about her husband and
then coolly admits that she went
automobiling with Banker Lillis,
went to a hotel and came home at
midnight and then blames her hus-
band for finding them together at
I a. m. when he said he would be
out of town! All of this and much
more she stated with an innocent,
injured air that plainly said she
did nothing wrong. It's about
time missionaries be sent. to the
heather of Kansas City if there
are more such there.

The old-fashioned "Riting and
Rithmetic" plan of education was
far from perfect, but of late our
public schools have been going to
extremes and it is hard to tell
where it will end. We are told
that at present many of our pupils
are putting much more energy in
their dancing lessons than in iheir
spelling and grammar. No doubt
it is easier to train the feet of some
people than their heads, but these
persons ought to be isolated so as
not to be a hindrance to tho work
ers.

John D. Rockefeller's plan to

may prove a good example to
other rich men. If rich men would
show aIspirit of brotherly inter

of lording it over the poor this
would be a better world for all.
Every man can do his part toward
creating a sentiment making it a
disgrace to die very rich or to
permit a rich nan domineering
over his less fortunate but just las
manly neighbors.
Coming home with this subject
our city is al badly caste ridden
as any in the state and it would
be an easy matter to classo ur peo-
