Harmony IN Missouri.

Whatever may be the outcome of the
Democratic State convention at Jop-
lin, Speaker Clark and Gov Folk have
set an example Of political harmony in
Missouri which should be needed and
followed by other leaders of Democ-
rsey. Turning from the pnseemly Viii
SON Haryey7Waue episode in New
York to the nianly and topen syowals
Of Messfs Clark ana Folk is much like
1 change from the outlet of sewer to
clear and limpid lake in the noun
tains
Political dissension. with its PERSONAL
ities and mud-slinging, is never an en-
gaging spectacle, and this latest display
of the art among the followers of JEFF
ferson is not a whit more inspiring
than hundreds of instances of pickering
and back-stabbing among politicians
that have gone, before. All the fine
phrases and flowing dietion of the great
Kentucky editoE does not cover the
inherent political cussedness which
prompts it. But contemporary with it,
two men named prominently as candi-
dates for the nomination in Missouri
come ont into the open and avowedly de-
clare friendship profess loyalty to the
common cause, and agree to let fate as
represented in the State convention de-
eide between them. Neither seeks to
belittle or besmirch the record or char
acter of the other, but each accepts the
situation as it is, and like a gentle
man, agrees 10 stand by the decision of
State Democrats in Missouri and sup
port the other if he wins. The atti-
tude of the two men is digni6ed, pa
triotic, and praiseworthy from every
point of view. 90
The Clark-Folk compact will enable
the Missouri delegation to go to Bal
timore united for its home candidate.
Whatever differences of opinion may
exist in Missouri will be smoothed ont
in the State CONVENTION, and the ap-
proyal reached there will be binding
upon the entire State delegation. If
dirty linen is to be washed, the clean
ing process will be effected in the home
waters and the drying done on the
home alders and birches, with no na-
tional stencil resulting, and the choice
of the convention, be il Clark or Folk,
will go to the great national gathering
with a clean and smiling face and
solid following behind him.
Suppose some such attitude toward
the outcome at Baltimore had been as
sumed by the national leaders, as they
eloquently promised at the Jackson din
ner in Washington, what a different
spectacle would Democracy present to
the world at this time! In place of the
smooth running of the nominating ma
chinery in Missouri, we have in the
national field a picture of the respon-
sible leaders of the party flying at one
snother's throats, in imminent danger
of spilling the party soup. The situ-
alton is neither dignifed nor does it
hold promise of success in the coming
campaign.
1t may be too late for the national
leaders to emulate the example of
Clark and Folk, but the action of these
ambitious sons of Missouri has the
effect of administering sharp rebuke
and displaying vividly the lack of po-
litical acumen which seems to embar-
rass Democracy when it nears the real
ization of its ambitions.

Chicago has decided to raise the pay
of school-teaehers. thus establishing a
new precedent along a line OF general
argument that has been kept up for years.
There Is scarcely city in the country
that has paid teachers anything like the
sum their services are worth In com.
parison with the importance Of the pro-
fession. In Chicago the maximum has
been increased to 1900 per year. Gran.
mar and primary grade teachers receive
nat raise of 800 year. In addition
to this better condition. Chicago has
largely increased the pension ana retire.

The eternal vigilance that is the price

way in Chicago. where watchers took
their stand a few days ago before the
doors Of the county clerk and board Of
election commissioners for the purpose
Of being able to obtain first place on
the primary ticket by fiIing petitions on
February g. the first legal day for them.
In advance OF possible competitors For
forty-three days, therefore. these patri-
otie men. relieving one another at In
tervals. will give generously OF their
time in order 10 insure their principals
the coveted place on the ballot
OF course. the voters are not bound 10
make their mark in the FIRST column, as
one might infer from this taking Of time
by the long forelock. But experience is
thought by the politicians to show thet
there Is real advantage IN a candidates
having his name IN the position that can
be most expeditiously reached. and hence
no price Is too high TO pay TO make GER

The episode Is not a very creditaDle
reflection upon the trainers OF the Illinois
primary law particularly as a similar
occurred last year. At the SAME time,
Il Is diiiicult to sympathize deeply with
a community that allows It's choice OF

A LITTLE NONSENSE.
POEMS YOU MAY NOT CARE TO
KNOw-LdTTLE BOY BLUE.

The little toy dog is covered with dust,
And wabbly and weak he stands;
The little toy soldier is red with rust,
And minus his feet and hands.
Time was when the little toy dog was
new,
And the soldier displayed no flaws;
But that was the time when our Little
Boy Blue
Got them from Santa Claus.
He battered the soldier the very frst
week,
And as for the little canine,
The sawdust inside was beginning to leak
On Christmas before he could dine.
Time was when the~llJtie toy dog was
new,
And the soldier was fair, you know:
But that was the time when our Little
Boy Blue
Got them n month ago.

BURGLARS VISIT
2ER|E STATIONS

Thieves entered the Erie railroad sta
lions at Woodside and Belleville last
night, stealing clothing and a camera
from a trunk. The rest of their loot
was valueless.
Tho Woodsidc station was visited first.
A pane of glass was cut out. The
thieves ransacked the drawers, took a
number of railroad tickets. but these are
unstamped and cannot be used. Tire
loot from this place mounts to but a
few dollars.
That the Belleville station was entered
later is proven by the fact that the
thieves took the Woodside ticket stamp
ing machine with them and left It in
Belleville. At the latter place they
opened a trunk belonging TO Miss II.
westphall. of 81 Tappan avenue, Belle
Vile, who had just returned from st.
Paul, Mimi, where she had been visiting

A sweater coat and camera valued to-
gether at $40, we're taken from Miss
