The Democrat News was both
iurprised and panied some days ago
note the publicity given by the
POST Dispatch and Republic to the
eports that Colonel Frederick D.
ardner of st. Louis, candidate for
he Democratic nomination for Gov
rnor, has been shipping liquor into
Inv territory with shipments of COT
ms and caskets through his manu-
acturing company, the st. Louis COT
in Co.
While it has not been our let to
)e a supporter of Col. Gardner In his
ace for Governor, we have thought
indlv of him and our first impress
ion was that the usual crop of cam
,aign lies was beginning to develop
lut later developments have con-
yinced us that the reports had their
,rigin in fact, especially as neither
Mr. Gardner nor his campaign mama
+er have dared deny them but have,
in substance, admitted them.
In a recent letter written by Rev.
Elmer T. Clarke, Secretary of the
Ministerial Alliance Of st. Louis, to
w. H. Stubblefield, Jr., of Cape Gil
ardeau and made public by consent
of Rev. Clark, are these words: IT
an accepted fact, undenied by Col
Gardner, that his corporation, the St
louis Coffin Co., which is reported to
BE a great factor in the so-cailed "Cof-
in Trust, has shipped whiskey into
prohibition territory by packing the
Jugs in his collins. This practice, in
/ Iced, became such factor in the com
pany's business that | am told Other
/ irms were forced to adopt the same
| tactics against their will. | suppose
| that neither Col. Gardner nor an!
other person, who is in a position t.
| know the facts. will dispute the truth
| fulness of this rumor. IT such denia
should be made, however, am IN ;
H position to prove that they have al
ready confessed such action to
committee of men and have beggel
that the fact be concealed"

to prove that about the first week o

ers." Mr.. Gardner himself admits
the truth of the reports by trying to
pass off the matter with the state
men that "they are trying to make
mountain out Of molehill."
The writer Of these lines, still think
ing that there might be some expla-
nation of the matter, on last Satur-
day in good faith called at the Gard
ner headquarters at the Laclede Hotel
and asked the campaign manager, Mr..
GRAY, whether or not the reports had
anv foundation. Mr.. Gray positively
refused to discuss the matter at all,
but instead offered us some Gardner
advertising matter at 10 cents per
inch.
We have not joined the cry against
Col. Gardner because of the claim
that he heads the coffin trust. Neither
have we said anything against him
because Of the apparently reliable re-
ports that he was independent in pol
| tics as late as 1912, and that for II
wears previous to 1912 he did not vote
at a presidential election. We have
State to pass on the matter at tht
polls. The verdict must be most EN-,
/ barrassing to Col. Gardner.
But this disclosure regarding thu
shipment of liquor is serious matter
/ and Mr.. Gardeners nomination IN Au
gust will ruin the prospect Of party
success in November.
i There can now be no doubt Of TIL
i truthfulness of this matter. Mr.
Gardner and all his advisers have
i had all the time necessary to den.
the charge. Their silence proves thei
guilt. II Mr.. Gardner is true Dem
ocrat and really interested in the sue
cess of the land bank bill, he will i'm
mediately withdraw from the rae

State to pass on the matter at he polls
The verde must be most embarrass

Gen. O'Meara says Missouri is the
first State to comply with the law. he
added:
Iii anticipation of the new law going
into effect, the new form of enlist
ment oath has already been printed
and placed in the hands Of the various
organizations and it is expected that
all officers and men will sign the new
oath which makes them part of the

ment. All officers hereafter elected
are required to pass an examination
before a board Of officers appointed
by the Secretary Of War. Any Officer
now in the Guard who is found inef
| ficient may be retired from the ser

a board appointed by the Secretary o.
