BYN. D. COCHRAN
A Larger u. S. Army.-Congress-
man Gardeners recent outbreak about
Uncle Sam not being prepared for
war is probably the beginning of a
campaign for a larger army and
navy. There are some things advo-
Gates of a larger army should con-
slider before they go far with their
propaganda.
The people of this country won't
stand for a large standing army. If
we are to make preparation for war
it will have to be done by getting
ready large volunteer army. The
basis of this, and the school of prep
aratiOn, must be the state militia or

Organized labor of this country
which defends unorganized labor's
interests as well as it's owns dis
tinctly hostile to the state militia; and
with good reason. The use of the
oJoJC Lll4Jld LII WCSJ NISlLld, MICH
igan, Colorado and other states to
help capital win it's battles against
union labor is reason enough for this
hostility.
Workngmen generally have come
to look upon the state militia as an
arm of a capitalist-contro1ed govern
ment-a police force to suppress
strikes and shoot labor into indus
trial slavery.
How will the militia be built up if
woTkingmen don't voluntarily join it?
The employers won't join. Capt.
talists won't join. There can be no
army unless the workers from farm
and factory shoulder the guns. And
how can we expect them to join the
militia in preparation for war when
they fear they might be ordered to
shoot down their brothers in times of
peace?

cassviIIe Stone MAY Be Used.

Jefferson City.-The fact that B. ].
Rosewater, president and manager Of
the Cassville Marble and Stone COM
pany OF Cassville, Barry county, has
been summoned to Bedford, Ind, for
a conference with Capitol Contractor
X. F. Gill and c. ]. ingalls,, president
of the ingalls, Stone company, leads to
the belief that the Cassville Burling-
ton limestone is to be selected for use
in the new Missouri statehouse.
For several weeks it has been APP
parent that negotiations of some kind
have been going on between the Cass-
vile company and the Gill company.
This view was borne out by the fail
ure Of an attempt of syndicate OF
Kansas City quaTymen to get an op-
ton on the Cassville quarry.
Cassyille Burlington limestone is
closely related to the Carthage stone,
1t is technically known as "Burlng-
tom limestone and is found at Cass-
Vile in lodges of sufficient width to
quarry in any dimensions called for in
the new capitol.
The understanding is that if deal
is made with Gill and ingalls, by Rose
water the equipment of the ingalls,
Stone company, which was to have
been used in the development of a
quarry in Ste. Genevieve county, will
be transferred to Cassville.

communication to John NJ Atkinson,
chairman of the Missouri public serv-
ice commission, suggesting that a pro-
vision be made in the scheme OF re-
organization as finally approved for
the payment of all claims for over
charges.
He sent Lee Ewing, one of his as
sistants, to ST. Louis to argue the
point before the joint commissions.
Mr. Ewing appeared before the COM
missions. but no decision was reached
ON his proposals.

William Phelps Emo, who devised
the system of traffic regulation now
practised in New York, and who has
been called the father of street traf-
fic regulation" had hard time at first
impressing his ideas on public officials,
Foreign cities appreciated them more
than American cities. Paris, threat
ened with a strike of the cab drivers
unless the system Emo were put in eff
feet, adopted it. Then Buenos Aires
sent for Mr.. Emo, asked him to work
out plan for its traffic, and agreed to
every suggestion he made.
A year or two later Mr.. Emo was
introduced, as a traffic regulation au-
thority, to much-traveled resident of
Washington.
The globe-trotter shook hands with
him, and then said in a rather patron
iZing manner:
IF you want to know what's what in
a street traffic system, Mr.. Emo, you
ought to see the way they do the trick
