Goat Butts Into Bank.

Quite an amusing and peculiar
incident occurred in Greenville
last Sunday afternoon which re-
suited in the Wayne County
Bank being broken into. Be
meath rear window was large
pile of coal reaching up to the
window sill. A large, bewhisker
ed billygoat which was ambling
about the streets spied the coal
pile and thinking it good place
from which to make his obser-
vations, proceeded to get up on
top of it. CHANGING to look at
the window he beheld therein the
image of himself. Being of a
war-like species, he gave chal
lenge to combat by paving the
coal and shaking his head, and
the goat in the glass answered
by like signs. Considering this
as an insult which should be
avenged by any selfrespecting
goat, he backed of few feet and
by a we'll directed butt complete.
ly demolished a large pane OF
glass. He departed from the
scene of conflict a Sadder and,
no doubt. wiser goat. 1t is no,

have preferred charges against
his goatship. but we notice that

assurance of the election Of a
Democratic president. A Pro
gressive Republican like Senator
LaFollette or Senator Cummins
would be equally as incapable of
the task. because the element OF
the party they represent is not
yet strong enough to dictate the
party policy and leadership.
Then what remains: Why not
look to Missouri for the Repub-
lican leader: Missouri, until
within very recent times has
been regarded as a reliably Dem
ocratic state, but has for the
last three successive elections
been carried by the Repubi
cans, and last year, when so
many normally Republican states
were upsetting their old political
affiliations and traditions, Mis-
souri, came to the front with a
good Republican majority. Mis-
SOuri, therefore, while holding to
progressive Republicanism not
too radical, and as we'll holds
tight the fealty of the conserva-
tive element of the party, is in a
position to point the way to Re
publican harmony and success
in 1912. The phrase, let Mis-
souri, point the way, could we'll
be made the rally cry of the
party.
Up in Jefferson City, in the
gubernatorial chair, sits Herbert
S. Hadley, under whose regime
Missouri was the political sur
prise of the year 1910, when Re
publican fortunes elsewhere
were so generally shattered.
Why not let Missouri furnish
the Republican leader for 1912:
Hadley is big enough in every
way to fill that place, fact that
is recognized by Missouri Demo
Gratis by their fear and hatred
of him. He is national figure
conspicuous enough to be fa-
miliar to all the people His
political policies are progressive
enough to please the progressiv-
ist without being so radical as to
offend the conservatist, as they
apply to national questions as
we'll as those of his own state.
Therefore, let Missouri point
the way with Governor Hadley
in the lead.

Governor Hadley who has
great faith in the people of Mis-

new capitol will be in process of
construction this year. He has
made no pledge. promise or pro

cross it. He is assured that the
Legislature will provide for the
proposed election and believes
that tWo-thirds of the votes to be
cast will be in favor of new

this confidence is shared by
practically all of the state officials
and leaders of the legislature.
There is no politics in the pro

cal and immediate. 1t eliminates
everything but the simple ques-

The time is not so far away
when the Republican party must
seek the man who will lead it in
1912. Necessarily that implies
a man who can carry the party
to success. Roosevelt could
probably do it, but the chances
are equally as probable that he
would not consent to assume the
leadership. President Taft can
not do it, because he could not
hold the progressive Republicans
in line, and his nomination would
carry with it the almost certain

IlODS tIlc1C t - W OC llO lct-up
in the probing of the st. Louis
election of last November. If
there is not a rich mine of rot
tenness there then all signs fail
-Ironton Register.
We don't know by what signs
the Register has reached the
conclusion set forth in the above
remark; but accepting that they
are sufficient to convince him of
it. Bro. AXE indicts his own par
ty of this rottenness, rather than
the Republican party. So far as
the Investigations of this election
go, which are being conducted
by the Democrats in the prose
IcutiOn of their various contest
cases and by a ferretting com
mittee appointed by a Democrat
ic legislature, nothing has as yet
developed to indicate anything
but that it was about the fairest
and cleanest election ever held
in St. Louis. If there is yet
something hidden that has not
been brought forth to prove the
contrary, it is being concealed
by the large army of Democratic
Judges and clerks who served at
the polls there on November 8th,
last, chosen by the city Organi-
zation of that party to protect
the Democratic ballots cast and
see that they were honestly
counted in the final tally. Not
one of these Democratic election
officers has come forward with
evidence that they saw or even
suspected any crookedness 60
ing on. They have either moth
ing to give out or they have all
gone into cahoots with the Re
publicans to conceal the rotten
ness" for the benefit of the Re-
publican party. You believe
this, don't you? The Democrats
had quite a lead in the late cleo
ton when they reached ST. Louis.
No one questioned the honesty
of this majority, the Democrats
said it was fair and the Republi
cans took it for granted: but in
ST. Louis the Republicans piled
up vote big enough to overcome
the Democratic majority outside
of the city and lead it by several
thousand. The returns upon
their face showed the election o1
the Republican candidates 70,
the state offices. This was 6
crime, not statutory one, but
according to the way the defeat
ed party sized it up, and contests
followed and the party prejudice
and power of the Democratic leg
Iislature was invoked to pass
Judgment. Therefore for sever
al weeks the St. Louis election
has been undergoing ''investiga
ton" for evidence that will sup
ply the excuse for the verdict
But all this smelling and pokins
has failed to produce anything
from Democratic or Republican
witnesses that the election wa
not fair and above board.

Jefferson City Letter.
Special Correspondence.

! Last week the legislature made
cOmmendable progress and the
leaders on both sides seemed
anxious to accomplish results for
the general good instead of using
their time to gain partisan ad-
vantage. The partisan spirit
cropped out, however. on the
Democratic side, in the discus
sion of the bill fixing the exam
inatiOn fees of the bank commits
SiOner: but several Democratic
leaders discouraged the effort
Of some of their party friends to
inject politics into that discus
sion.
| Three Of the regular appropri-
alton bills have passed both
houses and others will be passed
this week. Up to this time,
however, very few measures Of
general Importance have passed
either house. Considering the
awkward situation caused by the
destruction of the capitol two
weeks ago the legislature has
done very we'll in the few days
spent in the two improvised leg
islative halls. The committees
have much work mapped out for
this week.
Governor Hadley has given
much time and thought to the
several problems now before the
legislature, especially the prob
lem of how to provide for tran
saction of public business pend
ing the erection of new capitol.
All arrangement made immedi-
ately after the fire are of a tenn
pOrary nature. The necessity
of recOnStructing at least one of
the wings of the capitol for the
use of the main departments Of
the government for about two
years is so apparent that his sug-
gestion that $4,000 be appropri-
ated for that purpose is general
ly approved. Competent archi-
tects and builders have assured
the governor and the Legislature
that the wings of the capitol can
be safely and economically re-
stored for present use. The
legislature will determine the
matter this week. The debris is
now being cleared from the base
ment and from around the build
ing.
The measure Of paramount
Importance before the Legislature
this week is the bill of Senator
Alice providing for an election tc

ton to issue S3.OOO.OOo - per
