CORONER
JOS. A. FLAMMANG
NOMINATE THE STRONG MAN.

The choice of the head of the state
ticket is of vital importance to Mis-
souri, Democracy this year, and if we
would carry our state ticket through
to success we must take absolutely
no chances. The defeat of the Dem
ocratic nominee for governor this fall
would probably mean the defeat of a
part or all of the other state officers,
and no one will deny that should the
Republicans capture the judicial or
executive officers at this time they
would so firmly entrench themselves
with well organized machine that it
would be long before they could be
dislodged.
In the race for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination, two men
stand out, seemingly above the other
candidates. Elliott W. Major and w.
S. Cowherd and in all probability one
of these men will be nominated.
Should that man be Attorney Gen.
eral Major, then his election is as
sured. There is no clique or faction
who will fight him. His name will
insure for the ticket the full vote of
the party and his splendid record will
attract a large independent vote.
Should Mr.. Cowherd be the nominee
it is impossible to forecast the result.
Upon his shoulders and upon the
shoulders of his party will rest the
burden of his defeat four years ago
when as the nominee he proved
weaker than his ticket, and we have
no assurances that the same vote
which deserted him at that time would
not do so again.
The Republican leaders have sized
up the situation and believe him to be
the weaker man and through the Re-
publican papers they are working for
his nomination and are centering their
light on Major. That VIGOROUSLY par
tisan Republican paper, the Globe
Democrat, through its news columns
Favors his nomination, the indepen-
lent Republican sheet, the Post-Dis-
,atch, editorially espouses his cause,

isan Republican organ in southwest
Missouri, says:

Hon. Perry S. RAIDER.

This distinguished gentleman, who
stands at the head of the bar in Mis-
souri,, is reported to have a very
strong support from the lawyers in
all parts Of the state for the Demo-
cratic nomination for Judge of the
Supreme Court, Division No. 1. He
is not as we'll known as politician as
he is as lawyer, but will be rcnem-
bered by New Madrid people as the
man who, in 1910, made the best and
most lucid argument against the
Payne-Aldrich tariff ever delivered at
this place. New Madrid Weekly
Record.

"From the Republican standpoint,
it might be said that, if Missouri is to

Cowherd would be much preferable
to Major"

record, but we fear for his strength.

WASHINGTON LETTER,

Bv CLYDE H. Tavenner.
Washington, July.-There is vast
difference between the platforms
adopted by the Republicans at Chica-
go and the Democrats at Baltimore.
The Republican platform is thorough

tariff policy, notwithstanding the al
most universal verdict of the country
to the contrary. This platform still

preted in any way the high tariff
bosses might want it interpreted.
The Democratic platform, on the
other hand, is specific and definite.
1t pledges the party to an exact poll
cy, without any attempt at evasion.
1t promises, not to "revise the tariff"
but to "revise it downward. The
wording is so plain and so definite
that child could understand its
meaning and intent. Here, briefly,
are some of the important promises
in the Democratic document:
