SERMONS IN PARAGRAPHS,
LINES AND SENTENCES

Tho maximum achievement Of any
mans life. after 1t Is all over. is to
have done tho will of God. No man
or woman can have done any more
with life. no Luther. no Spurgeon.
no Wesley. no Melancthon. can have
done any more with their lives. and a
dairymaid or n scavenger can do as
much. Therefore. the supreme pr,n-
ctple upon which we have to run our
lives Is TO adhere, through good report
and i'll. through temptation and pros
perity and adversely. to the will Of
God. wherever that may lead us-Hcn.
~ Drummond.
There Is rest of the soul in going
oraNely about our business In the face
of difficult or challenging conditions.
While We weary ourselves with sterile
anxie.ies and tho fretful criticism or
social and political conditions harvests
are being gathered. corn is growing,
and the ministrant seasons pursue their
blessed and appointed courses con-
idence which looks for It's wages or
It's dividends to seedtime and harvest
and brotherly interchange OF effort
for the satisfaction of human need Is
never disappointd.-G. G. a., In the

The Broadway Bank.


Examination Of the affairs of the
closed Broadway Bank, Broadway and
Soulard street, has shown that Edward
Beisbarth, president of the bank, was
trustee for a $500, 600 bond issue of the
Wayne Farms Co., now under investi-
CATION by postal inspectors. The
Broadway Bank is designated, in the
bonds, as the place of payment.
The Wayne Farms Co. was formed
to deal in land in Wayne County, and
in other Southeast Missouri counties.
These lands were the former holdings
of the 0rah Land Investment Co., in
connection with which John T. Long
and Mrs. 0rah Ridgly have been in
dicted at Belleville Illinois. Suits in
st. Louis and Illinois courts, for sums
aggregating more than $500, 900, have
arisen from these land transactions.
Beisbarth told a Post Dispatch re-
porter that the Broadway Bank did not
hold any of the paper of the Wayne
Farms Co., and the institution had not
been connected with the land COM
pany in financial way. He said that
his connection with the Long Ridgy
schemes had not resulted in the loss
of any money either to the bank or
himself
The Wayne Farms Co. was incor-
porated last June by John Wilson,
Charles ]. Griffith and William F.
Kelly, residents of Southeast Missouri.
1t is being operated by H. E. Carey of
Chicago, president and manager; Ed
ward Bottenberg and David Glass of
Rushville, Ills. Bottenberg is secre-
tary.
1t is incorporated for $5OO,O00, the
capital stock being divided into 20,-
900 shares of the par value of $25. Its
land holdings consist of 1860 acres
conveyed to it by Orah Land and In
vestment Co, The lands and other
holdings of the company are listed at
high figures A tract of 1000 acres,
which was sold to the Orah company
by the Concrete Investment Co. at $3
n acre, is listed at $40 an acre.

G. BLAKELY
FOR MAYOR
What the Newspapers Say Editorially Of
HIS CANDIDACY
State Journal, March 3Oth.

Between these two men the bust
ness men and women citizens of the
capital city should not hesitate in
making their choice for mayor. In
the first place, for mayor great,
progressive city like Topeka needs an
able business man, one whose train
ings have been along business lines
and whose success in his own calliuGs
qualify him in a way to become the
business manager and executive of the
city of Topeka. Mr.. Blakely is the
owner of considerable property and,
therefore, a tax payer; is a man of
unqueStioned integrity and of the
highest moral standing. His eXper;
ence in the council give him an lnval-
liable former service in the city's at
fairs which will be of great advantage
to him as the mayor commissioner.
The State Journal also knows e,1r.
Blakely to be man who has to the
utmost degree the courage of his con-
VictionS. He is man of nerve. When
the State Journal exposed the rotten
ness of former Topeka city engineer
in connection with the disgraCeful
construction of a sewer in the south
ern portion of Topeka, Mr.. Blakely. as
councilman, backed up this paper in
its campaign to expose the derelictlCn
of the contractors.

Captain Clad Hamilton, the other

the principal events in his life, cover
ing the long period of his public ser
vice from the time he arrived in Kan
saS in 1859 as a young lawyer coming
as a pioneer in the days of territorial
agitation over the slave problem, until
his retirement from public life after
representing Kansas in Washington as
it's fiscal agent in settling claims
against the government.
In its final paragraph the memorial
contains a eulogy, concluding with the
statement THE name of Samuel J.

some of his time to public service and
representing the northern district of
this county in the legislature of 1876.
I'm the passing away of Mr.. Camp
bell" said the memorial, 1.-The COM
munity has lost an honorable, worthy
and useful citizen; the bar a high
minded, exemplary and able lawyer;
the family a devoted husband and ia
Their. These are the kind of men who
can ill be spared, but whose influence
for good will remain forever"
OF him the memorial verse attached
said:
He spread his friendly branches
Ger the frailties of man; and often
did he shield
The human underbrush from the
fierce sun of SANDER
And reproach, and yet he never
winked at wrong,
Nor did he excuse, either in himself
or in
His fellow man, that which would OPP
press, degrade
Or injure one of human kind
