pick up q paper from La Junta,

finding accounts of crimes COM

own county, in the last five years,
IA Mexicans have been sent to the
penitentiary, besides the minor of

in the Justices court and the many
others who escaped the penalties
of their otfenses. The Santa Fe

kept very busy running down
Mexican box car thieves. The
Mexicans pay no taxes, not even
road taxas, as will be remembered
by an experience our city had with
them last summer, and yet they
cost the taxpayers heavily. Mr..

On February Goth the Missouri State
Convention pledged its thirty-six votes
in the National Convention to Speaker
Champ Clark and instructed the dele
gates to vote for him on every ballot
In the County Conventions, preceding
the State Convention, 1875 delegates
were chosen to the Joplin meeting
Speaker Clark lives in the northern
part of the State. In the forty
six counties lying north of the Mis-
souri, River he got every delegate
to the State Convention except
one. He has lived among those
people for thirty-five years and this
vote indicates their estimate of him.
Out of more than seven hundred dele
gates chosen from the south side of
the river he got all but forty-seven.
Speaker Clark now holds the highest
office occupied by any Democrat in the
land. He is the only Westerner, strict
" speaking, who has ever been
Speaker Of the House of Representa-
tiVes. He is a Democrat at all times
and has supported the Democratic
ticket through sunshine and storm,
through good and evil report, ever
since he vas cid enough to vote. He
has never scratched q Der

Of course the cost of living has
gone up. Why notl This is an
era OF luxury-of universalized
convenience. Every telephone
must be paid for; gas and electric
ity are more expensive than coal
oil lamps; styles change so radical
ly each season that clothes are
worn out by the change of fashion
and not through use. Where for
merly the three RS was the scope
of the average education and boys
became self-suppOrting in their
first teens, high school and college
postpone independence until the
twenties. The steam laundry ex-
acts its tax. The barber shop de-
mands its toll. Daily newspapers,
high-priced magazines why, you
can make up the list yourself.
You know how your family
lived twenty or twenty-five years
ago. If you are willing to buy
one black silk dress every five
years; if your husband is content
to wear the same hat until it turns
color; if your children are satisfied
with their fathers cut down
clothes; if you are prepared to be
your own dresSmaker and milliner
to forego the hundred and one
conveniences that your mother
never knew; if you'll practice the
the same economies and restrict
your pleasures, deprive your sons
and daughters of their right to
complete education, why you can
live for just as little.
The times are not hard, they're
fast. Herbert Kaufman.

out. He Is the old-fashioned type
Of Democrat who believes that when
his party speaks 1t is up to him
to obey. He has never written a
letter or said a word that would
give any comfort to the enemies
of the Democratic party and he has
never been in a factional fight, but has
always kept in the middle of the road.
His record is part of the history
of the country. 1t is imprinted on the
records of the Missouri Legislature
and on the records Of the House OF
Representatives at Washington. It is
open for all men to read and study.
II he is nominated for the presidency
the Democratic party will know exact
ly what sort of foundation it has to
build on His life has been under pub
lie scrutiny so long and he has been
in so many fights in which the Repub-
lican party has been the opponent that
if anything could be brought against
his record or his character it would
have been done years ago.
President Taft has repeatedly stated
to his friends that he has no doubt
that Mr.. Clark will be the Democratic
nominee for president next fall. No
one will doubt that the President is in
an excellent position to judge as to

wood Pension Bill when it recently

largest part of the Union soldier vote

victory. 1t means that if Mr.. Clark is
the Democratic nominee he will get a
large support that no other Democratic
candidate could possibly get.

Standing On His Own Feet

Champ Clark is a candidate for
the Democratic Presidential nomi-
nation and has made formal an
uouncement to this effect. We
strongly suspected all along that
he would be a candidate. There
is no reason why he should not be
a candidate. He has fought and
bled and died as much for the
democratic party as any other
man and he has never once lost
his faith in the eternal principles
for which it stands. For sixteen
years, when many of his colleagues
were crying out against the de-
crees of fate, this man never lost
heart or hope of trust in the saw
ing common sense of the Ameri-
can people. VI Mr.. Clark's high
character, his faithful service. his
loyal democracy and his eminent
ability, there can be no doubt. He
has been in public for a great
many years and is now serving his
ninth term in Congress. During
all this period he has been an
active force in national legislation
and there is no stain of party dis.
loyalty or personal dishonesty OIL
his honorable record. Raleigh N.

Washington, d. c., Times)
Congressman Dan " Stephens, re-
Gently elected member of the house
from Nebraska and one of Mr. Bryan's
close friends, has issued statement in
which he strongly urges Democrats to
rally to the Clark standard.
Congressman Stephens declares 1t is
a safe three-to-one bet that Governor
Wilson will not support the nominee,
and he declares the New Jerseyite to
be impossible for two reasons-frst,
that he has bolted the Democratic tic
ket heretofore, and, second, that he
has written too many books"
Mr. Stephens, who is former Bryan
follower, says;

only have picked Champ Clark as my
favorite, but can give good reasons
for it without discrediting either of the
other candidates. The first and big

ty years of struggle and for reform,
he has stood shoulder to shoulder with
Bryan and other party workers. fight
ing the battles of the people, while
our friends, Wilson and Harmon, were
bushwhacking, trying to elect Repub-
lican presidents.
Champ Clark has worked at the
wheel so long he has the habit. He is
safe and sane Progressive that com
mands the confidence of all sections
Wilson seems to me impossible for
two reasons The first one is the al
legged fact that he has supported only
one Democratic candidate for presi-
dent for twenty years, and that was
Parker.
"The second reason is Wilson has
written too many books against our
folks that will rise up to plague us,
making his campaign one of defense
rather than Offense."

The strong winds of the past

erably, and within a short time

Every man should see that this is

by the town people. If an effort

matter simply by buying up large es.
