to be the real Governor and Gardner
is to merely look after the social fun
lions and do the posing. To assist
Halves in the responsibilities that will
attend the return of the old gang, Sam
B. Cook, former Secretary Of State,
and Of maladorious political character,
will be on hand. Senator will be
able to play the part he always played
by taking his share with everybody
that is in power.
EVERYBODY gets something out Of this
except the people. They get just
what they got before when'the gang"
controlled the politics Of the state
and what they always get when men
like Reed, %Pendergast, Halves and
Cook are allowed to run things.
This photograph Of the political
partnership that will control Missouri
in case of the election Of Gardner
ought to be sufficient for any honest
voter, with a ense Of personal and
political decency, who has regard for
the honor of the state and the inter
ests Of the taxpayer.
Do the people Of Missouri want to
re-instate the Halves, Cook and Nc.
Allister gang? Do they want to put
Thos. J. Pendergast. the Kansas City
d%ive.keeper, in charge of the m
system of Kansas City, Do they
want to elect a.United States Senator
who is the intimate. personal and
political friend Of this dive-keeper!
That's the proposition that's put to
them.

Before the farmer determines this
question, let him compare the imports

under Free Trade. He will find that
up to the time the war commenced,
the imports of all farm products tire

that at that time, the price Of farm

across the river to await the coming of
Eller
In the meantime Eller rode on down
the river and found Lewallen at the
Casper ranch, 2 miles below the old wire
bridge. Bill had no trouble here and
soon had his man in charge and started

OF certain political issues to direct and
divert the attention of the audience
away from the many apparent discre-
pancies of Candidate Hughes, from his
avoidance and skill in not touching
upon any of the many acts of progress
sive democratic legislation OF the past
four years, from his difficult efforts
to impress his auditors that Hughes is
deserving and trustworthy from all
these standpoints his speech was a
master effort. And it serves to EN-

self has great burdens to bear by reason
of certain influential and ruling, if not
progressive elements, in his party in

trying to undermine his influence with
