GOV. HADLEY'S STAND
Declares He Will Not Support Roose-
welt Electors.

st. Louis, July 11.-Governor Her
bert S. Hadley. who was the Roosevelt
floor leader at the Chicago convention,
in an authorized statement has de-
clared unequivocally that he will exert
himself to prevent the organization of
the third party in Missouri. His
declaration is contained in a statement
issued by the Republican state
press bureau. The statement is based
on a communication addressed to Ben
Deering in charge of the press bureau
by the governor. He believes, he says,
there is no occasion for the organiza-
ton of such party as the Republican
party is a progressive organization.
Governor Hadley declares emphH-
ically he will not support Roosevelt
electors if they are put up in Missouri.
He states, however, that he is opposed
to any rule of prescription which
would drive from the Republican party
those who would vote for Roosevelt
electors. if any are entered, and sup
port the Republican state and local
tickets.

CITY HOLDS THE SACK
County Hasn't Paid Its Share of Cost
of Smallpox Epidemic.

The CITY commissioners are trying
every scheme to fill the sack they have
been holding ever since the detention
hospital was built last year. This
morning they decided to make polite
request of the county to pay the cost
of the smallpox epidemic in 1911. The
epidemic cost $3,S42. The hospital
cost $4,000. If the county will pay
for the epidemic the city promises to
credit them the amount ON the $4,000
they owe as half of the detention hos
pital.
When the detention hospital was
built last year the county commission
ers promised to pay half the cost of
construction. When the time came to
pay the bill the county auditor would
not allow it. He said it was not legal.
This left the city in the hole and with
a tight grip on the sack.
1t is reported at the city hall that
the county commissioners are willing
to pay for the smallpox EPIDEMIC.
