Hamlin a Party Load.

The Democrats OF Greene cOun-
ty, Congressman Hamlin's own
home county, are calling upon
him to retire from the race for
reorganization. a
And they are right in volcmg
the demand.
They point to the fact that the
party this year will need a strong
man at the head Of the ticket if
the various counties in the dis
trict hope to repeat the victories
locally that they won in 1912.
AT that time the congressional
nominee didn't count so much
and was not looked upon as the
leader Of the campaign by reason
Of the fact that it was a national
one, and besides all the more Inn
p%Ortant state Offices were to be
filled. There was a president
and governor to be elected and
their popularity aided greatly to
winning votes for all the county
tickets throughout the district.

Reaping the Whirlwind.

a tremendous dow at the tAH-
plOyment Of force in controver-
sizes between employers and EN-
plOyes have been struck by the
decision Of the United States
Court of Appeals, which orders
the men convicted of dynamiting
in the Federal Court at India
napolis to surrender to the war
den of the Federal Prison at
Leavenworth, Kansas, to serve
their sentences.
Despite the charge of ram
reading" made in connection
with the indianapolis trail, all
these men, by reason of subse-
quent advantages taken of ev-
cry possible legal provision for
their protection, have been dealt
with justly and with full consid-
Grafton. Friends were not
wanting when bords in large
sums were required. Every pos
sible chance was given them to
show that the finding in their
trial was unwarranted.
The exact degree to which all
the individuals concerned were
guilty by intention would be
impossible to determine. Men
belonging 70 any organization
are sometimes called upon to
bear the burdens of their assO-
lciates. But the fact remains
that during a comparatively
short period there were more
than a hundred instances OF dy-
namiting Of steel structural
works in various parts of the
United States, and there was
ahnpler evidence to fix the crimes
upon the organization to which
the structural iron workers be-
longed.
The decision OF the Court of
Appeals, as reported SATURDAY
ought to go far toward putting
a stop to violence, in the ad-
Z justment of difficulties between
workers and employers through.
out the country. 1t ought to es
tablish the principle that mora.
force is stronger in the end thar

ferent story and the congress
ional nominee heads the ticket,
and upon his popularity or I'M
popularity will depend to a very
great extent the fate Of many
good Democrats nominated for
offices in their various localities.
It ism fair to them nor to the
party TO load the ticket with one
who VIII lose rather than win
votes, especially if he occupies
the leaIing place on the ticket.
There is no ~gainsaying the fact
that Mr.. Hamlin is unpopular, es-
pecially among Democrats. What
ever may be the cause, whether
because Of his lack of real con
gressional ability, his do nothing
record Of ten years in congress
or dissatisfaction over his post
office appointments, does not
matter, but the fact remains that
he is dreadfully unpopular, and
.it would be very silly to try to
deny or conceal the fact.
This being true, not only here
in Pettis county, but in Greene,
his home in Polk, his former
home; in Saline, Hickory, Ben
ton, Lafayette and Hc~ar2, it
goes seem as if it would be pe,
%litical suicide TO nominate him
again and take chances in try
ing to pull him through.
Some idea Of how he is regard
ed throughout the district can be
gained by reference to a circular
he recently sent broadcast
through the district in an en-
deayOr to answer some OF the
thousands Of criticisms that have
been made of his official acts.
The circular consisted OF Opin-
ions favorable to him and com
mendations of his official career.
Hard pushed as he was, it is
to be presumed that he gathered
all the good things that have
been said about him in the Last
two years. And yet in examin-
ing the circulars we find but
