 Farewell; loved ones left behind us, Farewell, dear ones, tried and true; It was with sad hearts and weeping That we said farewell to you. Now we're parted God is with us;
 Cheers each lonely day and hour, Frightening up each lonely pathway,
 With His great majestic power. How He cheers our every sorrow;
 Soothing each heart-rendering pain, When our thoughts are of the loved ones Whom we never shall see again. How with finger pointed upward,
 Speaks He words of comfort blest, Tells of time when ali G}d's children
 Shall be gathered oma to rest. Claspe' hands, then, sh'Il be our part
 ing;
 With our loved ones far and near Never again shall we be parted
 From those whom our hearts hold
 dear.

vote, it is pointed out. John Swanger,
who once was elected to a state posi-
ton, is spoken of as a candidate and
will have large following in the
state. f. f. E. McJimsey, of Spring
field, the newspaper publisher, will
take out heavy vote in the Southern
portion of the state.
Keil combines all the advantages of
a young man with that of the tried ex
ecutive. He has been Mayor of St.
Louis for one term, and had an admin
istration that has been virtually epoch
making in the annals of the city.
Kiel is a candidate who has literally
worked up from the bottom. He be-
gan his POLITICAL career as a member
of the city committee several years
ago. Since that time, he became
Chairman of the Republican Commit
teee, one of the highest and most in
fiuential political positions in the
state, and from that became Mayor
of the City.
He served as a delegate to the Re-
publican convention in Chicago in
1912, where he was a party man who
stood for the party and voted for
the nomination of Taft on the Repub-
lican ticket.

JUDGE RANNEY
Service To Be In Common
Pleas Courtroom, Feb. %,
First Day of Term.
JURIST'S FUNERAL
HELD YESTERDAY
Date Advanced Day-Crowd
Gathered From All Parts OF
Cape County.

Memorial services for Judge R. G.
Ranney of the Common Pleas Court
who died Saturday night, will be held
by the members of the Cape Girardeau
County Bar Association on February
! 28, the opening day of the next term
of Common Pleas Court.
The services, according to the off
GERS of the bar association, will be
held in the Common Pleas Court
room and a program including adj
dresses by several lawyers prominent
in the state as well as in the county
will be given.
A feature of the program that al
ready has been provided will be a reso-
luton of the association appropriate
Of the occasion. This will be drafted
by a committee of the association
comprised of Louis Houck, Judge VIII
son Cramer of Jackson and 7. D.
Hines of jackson.
The committee was appointed at q
meeting of the bar association in the
Common Pleas Court room yesterday
afternoon Immediately preceding the
funeral services for Judge Ranney,
Every member of the bar association
in Cape County was present except
two men, one of whom was i'll and one
of whom was absent from the city
and had not learned of the Judges
death.
The members of the association then
marched in body to the Ranney resi-
dence on North Main street for the
funeral services. The services were
conducted by Rev. J. +. Lawson, pastor
Of the Presbyterian, Church, who con-
Quoted the funeral Of Mrs. Ranney
last fall
Rev. F. Y. Campbell assisted in con-
Quoting the services. The Judges
body was buried beside that of his wife
in the family lot in Lorimier ccme-
terry.
The funeral was held day earlier
than it was believed it would be last
Saturday night, owing to the fact that
illness at her home made it impossible
for the Judges daughter, Mrs. Harbi-
son of Wichita, Kans., to attend. On
receipt OF her message saying that she
could not come, arrangements were
perfected for holding the funeral yes
terday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
The bar association members were
communicated with by telephone, all
county and city officials received word
of the funeral arrangements and tele-
phone messages were sent to many
parts of the city and county to friends
of the late iurist
Men and women from all parts of
the county gathered at the Ranney
home for the funeral services and the
cortege en- route to the cemetery was
one of the longest seen in recent
years. The procession included several
closed carriages, many automobiles
and more than score of buggies.
The pallbearers who acted yesterday
with one exception, were the same as
those who acted as pallbearers at the
funeral of Mrs. Ranney. The place
of H. f. Alexander, who was absent
from the city, was taken by Edward
L. Drum.
The other pallbearers were R. &. Oil
yer, Jr., Benson c. Hardesty, Lee /.
Bowman, Senator Thomas F. Lane
and Julian Miller.

over the brow Of the hill and by what
seemed to be larger band of men.
Blue left the two prisoners in the
charge of Orchard and walked over the
hill. He came upon a band of nine
men chopping down trees for ties.
He was able to approach only with
in about 400 feet of them, when they
saw him. The alarm was given i'm
mediateIy and they fled, scattering
through the woods. Blue opened fire
upon them with his revolver but to no
avail. A scattering fire was returned
that was Intellectual.
The sheriff returned to where he had
left Orchard and they took the two
prisoners to the house. They imme-
diately set out for Ironton with the
prisoners. Sheriff Blue loaded them
into the buggy with himself, Dicl;er-
son walked with the rig on the return
trip to lronton. Orchard made con-
nections with the Sligo railroad,
lumber road, and after reaching ST.
Louis by a devious route, returned to
Ironton from st. Louis.

with which ne is not chargcd?" Judge
Hays asked.
Il am opposed to the Endorsement Of
one man BY this association" Caruth-
crs continued. Il am in favor of the
ida suggested by Judge Hays, that of
having two men Endorsed, ere by the
members of each party, and then car
rying that q step further and have
the association as 4 whole give its in
dorsement 10 both men.
I'VE ought 10 select someone Sen
ator Lane exclaimed again. IF we
can't select a man to indorse, We ought
to disband"
Mr.. Drum spoke in favor of the in
dorsempnt Of one man as taking the
matter out Of politics and Q. A. Kne-
hans told of the custom of the st. Louis
bar in making dual Endorsements for
the St. Louis Circuit Courts after the
candidates have announced themselves.
Several men were trying to gain
the privilege to speak and Senator
Lane was remarking, Select some
one" at short intervals, when Allen
/. Oliver gained the floor.
"To indorse man or mon before we
know there viii be an election and who
the candidates will be seems to be pre-
mature" M Oliver said. "TO indorse
before the party committees hsve
nominated also seems TO be premature
aud not to wait till the Governor acts
seems hasty. Therefore, in order to
get something before the meeting, |
move that We adjourn"

didate for the position. Other Demo
cratic lawyers who have been mention
ed are Ed. l.. Drum, r. H. Whitelaw,
and Albert Spreading.
In the opinion of several attorneys
who examined the laws covering the
case, there is no doubt but that the
vacancy is to be filed by a special cleo
ton, called by the governor. A clause
of the statutes dealing with courts of
record yesterday was being quoted as
authority for the proposition that the
governor has the right to appoint the
successor to Judge Ranney.
The clause of the statute setting
forth the special election version, was
written especially about the Cape Cir
ardeau Common Pleas Court and there
is believed to be little chance for
escape from its provisions.
Democratic lawyers ard politicians
yesterday were discussing the chances
of getting the governor to fill the va
cancy by appointment.
The Republican members of the
bar association that were discussed for
the position yesterday were ]. H.
Doris, John Snider, and Judge Wilson
Cramer. Cramer'e name met with a
great deal of favorable comment
wherever it was mentioned, but it is
not belieevd he would accept the
place.
