GATES GIVES TO KIN.
Young Mi|Iianaire .eequeaths $2oo, 1000
to 1Mo Couaina

to Two Cousins.
New York. Nov. 12.-The will Of
Charles G. Gates, who died suddenly
at Cody, Wyo, on Oct. 20, leaves the
bulk Of his estate in equal shares to
his mother Mrs. John w. Gates, OF
the Plaza hotel. and his wife, Florence
Hopwood Gates. The value of the
estate is estimated at between $3,00O,-
600 and s5,000,000. Accordingly the two
residuary legatees will probably inherit
over $2,00o,000 each.
The will was executed on Aug. 2,
1912, and names Mrs John w. Gates
as sole executrix
The last will contains number Of
bequests amounting altogether to some
100000. These bequests are to rela-
tives and friends among others be-
quest to his cousin, Henry r. Baker.
of st. Charles, Ill, Of 100000, and a
bequest in trust Of 100000 to his
cousin, Dellora F. Angel. also Of St.
Charles.
1t is believer the attornsys. .4or Mrs.
Gates have not settleA definitely as to
whether the legal residenceN Of her son
was In rexas. New York, or In Mime
sofa, and until this 70 done no petition
for the probate Of the VIII Will, be filed.
1t; Is anticipated the Inheritance tax
officials Of each Of the states named
will claim that Mr.. Gates had a legal
residence there in order to collect the
bulk Of the tax. Mr.. Gates collection
OF paintings. most OF which once be-
longed to mis- father, is estimated at
over s1.0Oo,000. and the greater part Of
the estate is in securities.
Under the transfer tax laws of the
majority Of the states such property in
taxed where the decedent had his legal
residence.
The two chief beneiciaries under tho
will of Charles g. Gates other than his
mother and his. wife, were also lega-
tees under the will Of his father. Henry
R. Baker, who was the favorite nephew
OF John w. Gates, got $250,000. under
the latter's will, of which $4,000 was
to pay for his education and the re-
mainder to be paid when he was grad
uated. Mr.. Baker was also the favor
ite cousin Of Charles G. Gates which
accounts for the large bequest to him.
He is now in Colorado.
Under the will of John w. Gates
100000 went in trust to his niece,
Dellora z. AngeH daughter Of a blind
sister Of Mrs. John w. Gates, and she
gets the same amount under the will
Of Charles G. Gates. She is named
for Mr.. Gates mother and is now
about IL years old.
| 1t Is understood that there are no
public bcquests in the Will. but no
statement was forthcoming on that
point. 1t is believed that all Mr.
! Gates heirs at law are remembered
in the will, and that thare is no likeli-
hood OF contest.
Mr. Gates inherited only $1,000 900
outright from his father, and he has
accumulated the bulk Of his estate by
his own efforts. His fathers estate
was appraised at s1s,0Ooo o0o the net
value of which was s15.oo0.000. The
| bulk of this went to Mrs Gates.

College Students Popular Fair.

The Farmers County Fair is an an
nual event at the Missousi College OF
Agriculture. II is probably the largest
thing in the way Of an annual college
stunt" which has ever been attempted
by the student body Of any agricultural
college in America. The date this
year was June 8, which was several
weeks later than the usual fair time"
at the University. However, the
change OF date did not lessen the in
terest OF the students, townspeople and
nearby farmers, who came in the usual
crowds and packed the grounds from
the opening hour until its near mid
night close.
This county fair is unique in many
ways. 1t is entirely the product Of
student ingenuity. 1t has all the
features Of the usual county lair and a
few extra. The pike" is largely a
take-of on similar features Of the real
fair. The livestock and farm crops
are not as highly featured as livestock
and grain shows are assumed to be,
but the educational exhibit as a whole
is always a striking feature. The
Home Economics girls take the i'm
portant responsibility Of providing good
things to eat and drink. Visitors will
testify that they had good providers.
The event opens with a round the
town parade and closes with confetti.
1t is an all,day student carnival. The
whole thing is hard play, but it is good
exercise for mind and body.

Those Home Rule Petitions.

When the democratic politicians OF
St. Louis felt sure OF the election Of
democratic mayor they favored earn
estly the enactment Of home rule bills
under which the police and excise de-
patments can be controlled by the
mayor: but as soon as the people OF
that city elected a republican mayor;
these tricky politicians began to cry
aloud to the people Of the state to sub
nit the home rule bills to popular vote
under the referendum law. Such sub
mission will guarantee the control OF
the police department and the excise
department to democrats till after the
election in November, 1914, no matter
how the people may vote at that cleo
ton. If these departments can be
handled by the democratic politicians
through the campaign Of 1914 they
can make the policemen and the
saloons OF St. Louis do their bidding.
Otherwise they cannot hope TO carry
St. Louis in l9l4-and they cannot
hope to use the vote of that city to
nominate Senator Stone for re election.
No seli-respecting citizen should lend
his name to such desperate political
scheme. 1t is the duty Of every fair
minded voter not only to withhold his
name from the home rule referendum
petitions but to censure the men who
are promoting the circulation Of them.
The very fact that the alleged com
mittee" in charge Of the circulation o!
these petitions is paying canvassers
five cents for each name secured ought
to be enough to show that the scheme
has no popular backing.

The Market Letter.

Kansas City Stock Yards, June o.
Only 5000 cattle arrived here to-day,
consequently prices ruled strong and
trading was active. This moderate
run is attributed to the fact that sui-
fcicnt rains have fallen the latter part
Of last week in many parts OF Kansas
City territory, causing feeders to with
hold shipments. Heavy native steers
are selling up 10 $500, light weight
steers and Yearlings, which are being
eagerly sought for by the packers, are
bringing SS.25 tc SIS. 90, western steers
brought $S.25 here to day, cows $3.50
to SIPS, bulls at 5000 to $7.25 and
veal calves up to Sl0.50. Stocker
and feeder prices remain firm, sales
mostly ranging from $500 TO SITS.
A feature to-day is the large run in
quarantine division, over 1000 cattle
and calves arriving here, mostly north
Texas "caked' steers, sales ranging
from S6.75 TO $500. After having
experienced big slump last week,
hogs rallied again to-day and the mar
ket closed strong. Top $3.50, bulk
s8.4O to S8.45. Prices depend on
the volume Of the supply, but it does
not appear that disastrous break is
imminent. The sheep market is also
in hourishing condition here to-day
after last weeks bad close, 10000 ar
irving here to-day. Receipts are
largely from Colorado, Arizona, New
Mexico and Texas. Prices are strong
on everything, spring lambs up tc
$500, native weathers up to S5.75
and ewes S5.25.

from the American standpoint but the
Japs see in them an offensive discrim-

ters Of citizenship and the right OF un-

tive policy Of the republican party.
But for that policy they could not have
paid, and cannot continue 10 pay, the
liberal wages heretofore received by
American mechanics, artisans and wage
earners generally. II the agricultural
and industrial producers OF our country
are TO be forced into competition with
those Of other countries they will be
compelled to lower wages to the stan
dards Of foreign competitors. That is
as natural and as inevitable as any
proposition in economics. No remon-
STRANGE, intimidation, investigation or
prosecution can prevent it. Wages
will have to be reduced or great man
ufacturing plants will have to close.
Competition with foreign producers
may lower the cost to American con-
sumers Of many articles now proftably
made and sold in this country, but it
will necessarily bring down the wage
scale and make it harder for the pro-
ducing classes in this country to buy
what they must consume - whether
they buy American products or foreign
products. Under the free trade tariff
law the democrats are putting through
a dollar may 60 further but the man
who spends the dollar will have TO 90
further to get it.

A Dangerous Motto.

Watch the democratic politicians.
Their theory is that anything is fair in
Missouri politics that contributes 10
the success Of the democratic ticket.
Anything 10 win" is their motto.
Men who follow such a policy are not
worthy TO lead honest people. They
are net the friends Of good government.
They are corrupt politicians. II they
are willing to do anything to win"
they will be found willing when they
win 10 do anything that may give them
personal advantage-eyen TO loot the
treasury.
The Taney County republican. (Forsyth, Mo.) 1895-1992, 1913-06-12

Let it be remembered by every hon
est man In the state that the effort to
suspend the home rule laws enacted
for St. Louis is desperate democratic
trick TO preserve to the democratic
governor control Of the police and the
saloons Of St. Louis pending the cleo
tion Of 1914. Il is that and that only,
no matter what plausible plea may be
offered BY the men who are back oi
the movement, and who are using the
moral sentiment Of the state to secure
signatures to the petitions TO submit
these bills 10 the referendum.
