Ripley County democrat. (Doniphan, Mo.) 1905-1920, 1911-06-09
Governor Hadley's term Of Of

| Governor Hadley's term Of Of
lfice is practically at close, re-
marks the Bonneville Advertiser.
| AT least he has done now about
all the harm that his narrowness
and mischievous partsanship will
permit him to do. There is no
more legislatures, unless an extra
session should be called, with
which he will have to deal. He
viii have from now till the end Of
his term but q small amount of
patronage to distribute. What is
the record Of this young "Kansas
Jayhawkere" What has he done
or left undone TO justify the 20O,-
900 or more Democrats OF Mis-
souri, in turning down Billie Cow
; herd, q Missouri boy, in support
ing himp He has proven himself
only a ward politician. Every
act has been one OF hypocrisy
and mean ness in dealing with
Democrats. He has missed not
single opportunity to play poll
tics. He has sacrificed the state's
best interests time and again to
+, seek a temporary political ad-
] vantage. His occupancy of the
. governors office has been char
acterized by horse plays, amateur
, politios, and in efforts to pose be-
F, fore the footlights and to exploit
: Hadley and Hadleyism with all
' the loud talk that has emanated
from his advertising bureau of
what he 10 going to do. The
facts are he has done nothing.
: He has proven the costliest in.
F. vestment the state OF Missouri
n has ever made. The adminis-
9 tration has been one of disaster,
8 debt, conflsgration and hot air.
: Yet he has the nerve upon his
d "record" TO refer sneeringly to
: to some Of the best Democrats Of
~ the state, and 10 even his own as-
1t sociates who have labored untir-
n ingly in and out OF season for the
,. states best interests. He even
d encourages lot of his light fin
II gered dupes to boom him FOL
is president, and he has the articles
h cut out and pasted away, and
1t much OF his time is spent in read
d ing about what q great man il
i Herbert Hadley, Let every good
man rejoice that Herbert Hadley
r. the fakir, the partisan and four
t, flusher, has seen his best days
'p that his term is rapidly drawing
Or TO close, and that he is nov
q powerless to do any greater harm
., than he has already done, be
l. cause he is better known. 81
RS impressed is he with his own i'm
et portanes that hs Is now engage'
or in debating who shall receive tn
IN Republican, nomination next year
lg Although we have a primary Law
a in Missouri and the people ar
.. supposed to have a voice in sc
90 lecting the ticket, he feels create
50 than the people, and has taken
upon himself to relieve them Q
az this work and will name a tickt
~ Of his own henchmen. Johnn
g Whanger, his tool and wet.nurst
T. is to receive the Republican nom
n, ination for governor. Gmeliof
n Mckinley and others who hav
as had aspirations are to be turne
down for Johnny Whanger. An
all down the line he has selecte
90 his own ticket, The question j
'al what will the Republicans do vii
n litp Democrats are onto the ger
20 tleman, and il 70 more than like
!. !, the Republicans are sufficient
posted. and they may not vii
ief inoly submit to such treatment.
