Paper of the Development Here

iness-like way operating in Missouri,
and it is sale to say no such construc-
ton will ever be given it, Insurance
companies and their legal advisers are
familiar With the rules of construction
and are not warranted in assuming that
this statute will be so interpreted as to
work oppression and hardship or rem
der it impossible for them TO continue
business hereunder. This law makes
| it no more impossible or impracticable
for the companies 10 do business here
than did our old antitrust statute under
which they operated for sixteen years,
nor than do the laws OF more than half
Of the other states, in all Of which the
companies are now carrying on their
business. In declaring this, am offer
ing no immunity nor promising leni-
ency in the enforcement Of the law,
but merely reading it as / believe the
courts will construe and apply it.
It is known that the companies and
their representatives have used their
attitude toward Missouri as a club with
the legislatures Of other states in pro-
curing legislation which they desire,
indirectly threatening to place such
states in the position in which Missouri
finds itself if their wants were not com
piled with. The various organs Of the
insurance companies have weekly urged
all companies TO stand pat, and have
criticised and endeavored to embauass
the Missouri and other companies that
are continuing to do business here,
their purpose apparently being to make
Of Missouri an object lesson and to
produce as unsatisfactory and chaotic
condition as possible.
The desire for insurance in Missouri
is Just as great as it ever was and it is
safe to assume that many Of the com.
panies which are parties to the unlaw-
full conspiracy would break from the
Iold if not constrained by sense Of
ethical point and their fear Of what
other companies and insurance journals
would visit upon them.
Reliable information has reached me
that every effort is being made to in
duce Missouri companies 10 refrain
from pushing for or writing new bust
ness or from appointing new agents
and field men or doing anything else
calculated to take care OF the business
which the foreign companies have
abandoned. The companies have es'
tablished publicity bureau in Chicago
and are weekly sending to the country
press and insurance agents inspired
articles for the purpose Of creating
alarm and sentiment in the hope that
it will force the state TO enact such
legislation as the companies desire.
Another purpose, as evidenced by
the insurance journals under the indi-
rect control Of the companies, is that
by this course the companies hope to
put an end TO any effort to bring about
reduction in fire insurance rates, it
being boastlully said that when the
companies conclude their punishment
Of Missouri, It's people will be willing
to pay any rates which the companies
( may exact.

Bourbon democracy and modern
business ideas do not harmonize; hence
half the property in the state is to-day
jeopardised because safe insurance
cannot be obtained.

GARDENING.

l hold that gardening's splendid fun,
I am the chap that some think odd.
l like to rise and greet the sun,
To turn and break the stubborn clod.
It's great to spend an hour or two,
Some care unto the back yard giving;
But this will admit to you-
I'd hate to do it for living.
There is no toll that quite compares
To delving deity with a spade,
To plant a tree or root out tares,
Or bring front lawn down to grade.
With Joy it makes the pulses throb,
And starts the heart to beating gaily;
IT'S true | glory in the job,
But I would hate to dc it daily.
Take it from me, you sluggish men,
Whose arteries may some day harden
For lack Of work-'tis truth pen
You ought to labor in a garden.
Go bend your backs above a spade
And strain your muscles with hoe;
There is no more delightful trade,
Unless that way you earn your dough.
l glory in the stubborn ground,
And conquer it with fertilizer;
Now every morning I am found,
A bright and smiling early riser.
It's fun to haul in loads Of dirt
And lug out chunks Of solid clay;
In confidence, though, I'll assert,
I'd hate to do it by the day,
Think you l mind this aching back,
Or care because my muscles twinge,
Or that my bones, with each attack,
Remind me Of rusty hinge?
Nc! Gardening is wholly joy,
A source Of pleasures unalloyed;
But, con6dentially, my boy,
Pm glad Pm otherwise employed.

NATIVES SHARPEN THEIR
 KNIVES FOR PHOENICIAkS
Castle Will Use Two New Men Whose Identity he Keeps Darksome Sec
 ret; Natives Hope to Climb.

T am a gonna lick that Phoenix team Sunday" quOth Manager Francisco Castle of the Natives last eve as the sun was setting in the golden west. The reason he said it the sun was going down, was that just then he heard from two new players he is going to work in his infield, to strengthen the line against the attacks or the Senatorial hitters.
 Castle seemed right confident of his ability to put it over the PhOenicians. He has had Smokey Joe Smiley work out behind the barn until the old wing is as supple as a girls waist, and as strong as the proVerbial bar of steel. With all kinks out, the open faced heaVer will make the Phoenicians hunt the bench frequently and soon. And what they get off Smiley, they will lose in the tightest of infields. declares Castle. for if ever flock of short gard eners worked like oil in a bearing, the MaroOns infield did it The Native outfield will be selected with especial attention to the hitting propensities of the applicants. and with careful weed ing, the boss will get at least five good clean bingles off the Phoenix twirlers.
 Ritchie, on the other hand will do some fine selecting, himself. working as many as his heavy stickers as possible against the ever smiling SOnoqui. The Silent Boss has both Hall and Barn grover to depend upon, and if the Ma tive batsmen get very many hits, the cap says it will be mighty funny.
 So with each team making an effort to recruit it's weak places, the battle ought to be a hot one The Maroons want to show that they can win games otherwise than by fOrfeits, and the Phoenicians are strong for keeping their newly acquired position on the pinnacle of the leagues percentage CalumnS

 The American youth needed to hole out in one to win and in two to tie. He gazed long down into the bowl where the cup lay, dried his hands and made 35-foOt putt, which just missed the hole and rolled three feet beyond. A sigh arose from the crowd and all was still again. 0uimet gently tapped the bail again. Slowly it rolled to the edge of the hole, Curled around the lip for an inch or so, and then it dropped in for four which tied him with Ray and Vardon.
 Instantly tremendous yell went Ep. The gallery swept past the ropes ard the guards closed in on Ouimet in a solid phalanX. He was lifted to the shoulders of the ad- vance guard and carried him toward the clubhouse surrounded by several thousand cheering, yelling golfers. who forgot their golf enthusiasm in being just Americans and cheering an American victory. Many, not realiZ- ing that Ouimet is an amateur, thrust bills of large denominations att him, hut he only smiled and shook his head
 Ouimets great battle against the two Englishmen who already had tied at 304 before he had half finished the final round, was all the more praisewoIthy because of the frightful weather conditions under which he was obliged to play. It was raining heavily before the forenoon round was started and continued with but few let-ups all day. The fairways and greens were water-soaked. It

Charging conspiracy to commit mur- der, Deputy Sheriff Perry and Deputy Sheriff Fitch early yesterday placed under arrest Jose Torres and Ramon Cassae and lodged them in the county jail.
