A Brave Man

When Col. Roosevelt was put to
the test Monday evening he prov
ed himself a brave man. II Is
needless to ask how many men
would have acted as cool and as
brave as he did-as we heard one
man express Il, "None but a SOL
der could have acted so.' When
the assassin's revolver was po mt
ed at him he did not scream nor
dodge; when the shot was II ed he
calmly remarked that he missed
him that time, and when he learn
ed that he was shot, he said, an
make this speech or die" No
sham about that a brave man
whom We r proud to acknow-
ledge.

How a Taft Paper Looks
at it.

The Chicago Record-Herald has
lust completed a poll II has taken
of the nationwide political sem
timent. II has taken this poll In
conjunction with other large news
papers OF the country. The Record
Herald Is aTat newspaper and
would not therefore be expested
to color the situation any for the
other people.
The Herald's conclusions are that
Wilson IL strong in the East, that
at present he IL slightly ahead In
New York, that Roosevelt Is strong
In the Middle West and will carry
Illinois, that the only state that
Mr.. Taft seems to have a chance In
Is Wisconsin and that the fight la
between Roosevelt and WILSON. A
significant conclusion which the
Record-Herald draws is that 40
per cent OF the voters are as yet
undetermined what they are going
to do; that many Democrats are
leaning toward MI. Roosevelt and
that the last three weeks of> the
campaign will tell the story, be
cause during that time the 40 per
cent now undetermined will have
made up their minds.
In this situation the Record-Hei-
aid sees the possibility OF al'nd-
slide either to Roosevelt or 10
Wilson, but sees no possibility OF a
landslide to Taft or any hops OF
his election Wichita Beacon.

walton than recent editorial In
the Frankfutrer Zeitung, the most
influential newspaper In South
Germany, In which II advocates
the extension OF the ballot to Ger
man women. Complete equality
and the full development OF the
individual are the foundation prin
ciples OF every democratic commun
ity. writes the Frankfuter Zeitung.
II Is OF no significance that the
point OF view has heretofore
been applied to women. There
comes times when such problems
acquire a different aspect and de-
mand new application OF old
principles. The male citizen, too,
was at n time pushed back, with
a thousand reasons for refusing him
when he demanded equality"

When you hear a politician
spouting about the high cost of
living, robber tariff, etc., look at
the other side. A gentleman
brought us a market report of
August 31st, 1897, when prices
were looking up again after a
Republican victory, 1t says:
"The general trade In beef cat
tie has been very satisfactory dur
ing the month. Prices have ad-
vanced 25c to 4oc per cwt. over
last month. The market closes at
fbout the highest point of the sea,
Son.

steers, 1900 to 1900 lbs, have sold
at $i.r5 to $50. Fair to medium
$3.50 to $l.75. Dressed beef
steers, rough to best s,.25 to $500
"H0gs-top ~corn-fed hogs, $500

Mr.. Farmer, remember that when
YOU take to market a load OF
wheat, corn, cattle, poultry, eggs
or produce today you can take
back with you nor clothing, farm
machinery or cash than ever be-
fore. That's what counts - the
margin over the cost OF living,
and not the high cost OF living.
Under a tariff for revenue" the
other fellow will have the margin
in his favor.
The Marshall republican., 1912-10-18

Now, you fellows who are rid
ing autos instead OF mules and
complaining about the cost OF
high living, who gets the differ
ence between the prices OF 1897
and 1922 It's our producer. And
as long as we are the producers
how can we complain OF getting
high p~rices9 It's the consumer II
anyone, who should complain.
But, well, prices will soon come
down and then therell be nc rea-
son for complaint.

Hon. Frank Buchanan, Of Illinois,
made a speech In the House of Rep
resentatives, then the government
had II printed and distributed free
10 Missouri voters. For a case of
un~mitigated gall this gets the blue
ribbon. We believe Single Tax
advocates should have the same
privilege as anyone else, but this
franking privilege OF Congressman
Is the greatest imposition on the
public ever heard OF. A square
deal demands It's abolition.

Saline county, with it's great pro-
ducing power, would have but
very few "tariff for revenue adj
vocates in II u every voter cast
his ballot in his and his neighbors'
best interest instead OF aDemo-
cratic straight or even preiudiced
lions. il is easy to realize
how a man with a fixed income,
a retired man or a capitalist
would vote for "cheapsr n:.iing,h
meaning lower prices for meat,
groceries. clothing, etc, but how
the man who gets the benefit can
vote against his own interest is
hard to understand.

His many friends in st. Louis,
and they are found in every avenue
Of life, among the best business
men as well as among artisans and
laboring men, with whom as con-
tractor and otherwise he has had
extensive dealings-that il, the
Democratic portion of them-have
urged him to make this race. They
believe that his wide acquaintance
In the city, his knowledge Of city
politics and his activity In the Dem
ocratic organization of that city,
would make him one of the strong
est men the party could place upon
its State ticket, and that he would
be large factor in holding down
and reducing the Republican ma
jOrity there. He Is an untiring
worker and campaigner OF quiet
but effective resources. An In
stance: In 1883 the Democrats in
the State election lost st. Louis by
1900 votes. -Four years later, when
Mr.. 0'Meara was on the ticket for
Lieutensnt Governor, this majority
was cut down to 1900, n result that
was largely due to his popularity
among all classes and his effective
ness as an organizer and party
worker.
MIR. O'Meara, as his name indi-
Gates, Is of Irish extraction and
revotionary stock. He was born In
st. Louis aud succeeded his father
in the stone quarry business, which
the elder O'Meara founded In 1875.
He was formerly vice chairman OF
the st. Louis Democratic Central
committee, and Lieutenant Govern.
or of Missouri when Hon. VIM. J.
Stone was Governor. He is mem
Der of several organizations and an
officer In the Missouri Society Sons
OF the Revolution, of which the
Right Reverend Bishop ID. ID. futile
is president. His grandfather, John
Baptiste o'Meara, was a, liedteuant
in the Irish Brigade, which fought
with Rochambeau In the war of the
American Revolution. Educated In
the public schools and st. Louis
University, bank clerk and teller in
Citizens Savings bank of st. Louis
eleven years, cashier "P.' II. Kelch.
er bank" two years, eight years in
stone quarry business, succeeding
his father and brother, go to make
up an experience that eminently
qualities him for the office OF Treas
urer of this great State.
Mr.. 0'Meara has been seventeen
years treasurer OF the Hill-0 'Meara
Construction company, from which
he will Withdraw all connection il
he obtains the nomin alton, so that
he can give his entire time to the
campaign and the Office II elected.

Missouri's Oldest Home.

Ste. Genevieve, Mo-, is considered
the. cradle of Western civilization
1t was the home Of Delaesus, the
first governor of the Louisiana Ter
ritOry. 1t was an eyesore to the red
men when Missouri was their home,
and IL Is now considered the CON
Meeting link between the past and
present so far as their State IL con
cerned.
In this old French town there are
many sites that are historic and
more relies that were curious long
before the oldest living person was
born.
"Bolducn Is the name Of the old
est house that stands in Ste. Gene

The logs that nestled its first flock
when Missouri was on the frontier
were bound together by wooden pins.
Age has almost petrified them, and
the initials that were carved In these
green oak trunks more than q GEN.

wound around the French homes In

Had Enough Of Canada.

went to Canada several years ago
and took q homestead and became Il
subject OF great Britain, after three
years residence there, was before
the district clerk at Seneca the 9th.
er day To be reiustated AS u citizen
of the United States. He found,
however, that like any other alien,
he must conform with the natural
ization laws, and so only declared
his intention. 1t will take two years
before he can again be citizen of
the United States. This is the first
application of this nature filed In
Kansas court. People who are en-
ticed away to Canada by extrava-
gautly worded advertisements OF
that country find out their mistake
sooner or later, and are glad to re-
turn to the more salubrious climate
of the Middle West. For good
farms and a pleasant home no sec
tion surpasses Missouri.

The Income Tax Amendment.

Arizona has ratified the income
tax amendment to give Congress
1.-THE power to lay and collect taxes
on incomes from whatever source
derived, without apportiOnment
among,the several States, and with
out regard 20 any census. or enum-
Grafton" Thirty-two States have
now ratified the proposed amend
ment. Three-fourths OF the States
must approve 1t, so that four more
are needed to cause its adoption.
Connecticut, New Hampshire,
New Jersey, Rhode Island and West
Virginia have rejected the amend
ment. In Louisiana, Massachu-
sets and Virginia one house has
favored 1t and the other has refused
to concur. The other States that
have yet to vote on the question of
ratification or rejection are Dele
ware, Florida, Minnesota, New
Mexico, Pennsylvania, Utah, Yer
mont aud Wyoming.
Ii is possible, though hardly prob
able, that the amendment will OBJ
tain the needed four votes this year.
The legislature of New Mexico, now
In session, does not seem favorably
inclined toward 1t; the Louisiana
Legislature, which will meet next
month, is said not to be likely to
approve it. Nermont's legislature
assemblies in October, but Is not
counted confidently among the sup
pOrtcrs Of the measure. Next year,
when the legislatures assemble in
the other States which are to pass
upon the matter, the amendment
will probably be ratified. -Chicago

HON. JOHN B. o'MEARA
FOR STATE TREASURER

The Times this week carries thu
announcement of former Lieutenant
Governor John b. O'Meara as II
candidate for State Treasurer. Aside
from the fact that MIR. O'Meara was
Lieutenant Governor of the State
during the administration OF Gov.
ernor Stone, and that his record as
presiding officer Of the State Senate
is clean book Of services faithfully
rendered for the people, he needs no
introduction to the people Of ST.
Francois county, many of whom
know him personally. For NUM-
number of years he was practically
II citizen of this county, as he had
charge of the O'Meara granite quar-
ries and did much to develop the
granite resources of this county.
