1s,6SS,S71 Presidential Voters

18,63S,S71 Presidential Voters
There was an increase of 81
500, $40, or over % per cent, in
the total vote for President last
year, according to tie complete
official returns, as compared
with the figures Of 1912. Mr..
Wilson received 2,819,197 more
votes than in 1912, and Mr..
Hughes 576,116 more votes than
Taft and Roosevelt together.
Each candidate made a new
record for his party. The Will
son vote was 2,613,371 larger
than the Bryan vote in 1896
the Hughes vote was 923, 1888
larger than the Roosevelt vote
in 1904.
This year Illinois wrested from
Pennsylvania the honor Of being
the banner Republican state,
the plurality for Hughes being
only 181, $50 in Pennsylvania as
against 202,235 in Illinois. AS
an Offset, Texas gave Wilson a
plurality of 22O, $50, the largest
received by either candidate in
any single state. The Texas
plurality alone equalled the
combined Hughes pluralities in
Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts,
New York and New Jersey.
So close was the vote in New
Hampshire and Minnesota that
Wilson carried the former by
only 81 and Hughes the latter by
1872. On 449 votes in these two
states turned 16 electoral votes
in a Presidential election in
which the Democratic candidate
had a clear lead of 568, 1922 in
the total popular vote over his
Republican opponent.

FREE CLINIC TO BE ADDED
TO SCHOOL OF MEDICINE
To Give Practical Training in
Surgery to Students.

Surgery TO StudentS.
The Board of Curators of the
University at its last meeting
authorized the establishment of
a free medical clinic at the Park
.er Memorial Hospital Of the
School of Medicine of the Uni
versity, and arrangements are
almost completed for its begin
ming January 1.
The purpose of the clinic is to
give practical training to second
year medical students in physi-
cal diagnosis and minor surgery.
This will be done by lectures and
demonstrations of the treat
ment of patients in the clinic.
1t will indirectly be a great help
to persons in Columbia who are
unable to pay for surgical or
medical treatment A dollar a
day will be charged for hospital
care, but the attention of doc
tors in both medical and surgical
cases will be free. No special
rooms will be set aside for elm
ica1 patients, although they will
probably be mostly ward pat
tents.
DR.. Guy L. Noyes, acting dean
of the school of medicine, said,
"T'here should be no fear that
because the clinic is establish
ed for students, the best treat
ment will not be given; uncom-
monty good treatment is given
to clinical patients because the
doctor is working as an example
to the students and thus takes
unusual care"
Once before a free clinic was
a part Of the School of Medicine.
This was when the four-year
course was given in the school
from 1900 to 1910.
The enrolment in the School
of Medicine this year is seventy
three, an increase of forty-four
since 1910.
The clinic will be opened to
every one except students. II
is not connected with the stu.
dent health service.

State complies with the govern
mental regulations.
The Feiieral aid road law re-
uuires what is called a project
statement to be submitted to
the Secretary of Agriculture be-
fore any State can receive the
benefits of this Federal law.
There is no doubt but there
will be radical changes in the
election law for both the pri-
mary and general election. In
dications are that registration
for both the cities and country,
with challengers, at each pre-
cinct in the State will be re-
quired. This will stop much
fraud.
Just what will done regarding
dry" legislation is hard to say
at this time. The dry repres-
entatives are largely in the ma
jority, and they are talking
stringent dry" measures, and
my prediction is that the most
drastic will become laws. The
fight is on from one end Of the
state to the other and to me it
look like Block AZ Lexington's

serious "jolt," as a result of the
legislation that will be enacted
putting John Barleycorn out of
business.

For the third time the writer
was elected House enrolling
clerk, possibly the most import
ant position of the General AS.
sembly The requirements Of
the position are simple, all that
is demanded being that all Rep.
resentatives be placed on the
same level and honesty and eff.
ficiency in the discharge of tht
duties.

LEGISLATURE DOINGs
BY Frank Bowman

souri, General Assembly began
its grind of seventy days on
January 3, From present indi-
cations this will be a working
session, and, we predict, the tax
payers of the State will have lit
tie or no complaint to make as
regards the expenditure of mon
ey. In particular, the House
members generally favor the
greatest economy possible.
OF course on all party meas
ures the vote will be, 70 Demo-
Gratis and Ga Republicans. From
this it will be seen the Lamm
contest against Gardner, is dead
before it gets started. To my
thinking this contest is purely to
make political capital for the
campaigns two and four years
hence. But, believe me, the
Democrats are wide awake and
will meet them without a bobble
and this sham contest will go to
its death on January Is, the
time set for the first hearing.
Lafayette's member, Hon. H.
w. McNeel, is on the job early
and late, and l predict his record
will be unsurpassed for efficiency
and honesty, the latter being
the most important of the two.
He takes fine and will prove one
of the popular working mem
bers. In his hands every inter
est Of his constituents is in safe
and competent keeping. Mrs
McNeel and "Billie" are with
him for the session.
The senate voted five clerks
and a stenographer to each
Senator, That's going some anC
means that help in the Senate
will cost the state quite a sun
daily. SO far Senator Stark ha:
given Lafayette County one
clerk, j. E. Ragland of Higgins
vile,
The capitol building, it is un
derstood, will be completed il
May and be dedicated on July
4 1917.
The daily papers have givel
it out that the "drys' wer,
whipped in the election of Rep
resentative Farris floor leader
of the democrats. Don't you be
lieve it. Mr.. Farris is "wet,
and that is his right, but l an
sure he fills the bill to a "ty'
and enjoys the distinction Of
being The ablest member il
both branches of the Legisla
ture. Although differing will
him, yet | know he is thorough
ly capable to guard every inter
est of his party to the satisfac
ton of the rank and file through
out the State. On all "wet" anC
dry" matters, so far as thu
House is concerned, there is M
question but that the "dry" car
get anything they ask for, thu
"drys' having 100 votes anC
the "wets" AZ.
Harry B. Halves is to b,
chairman of the roads and high
way committee, and he will de
vote his legislative efforts t.
better roads in Missouri. Thii
bill was introduced Monday anC
will pass:
The bill provides for the ere
alton of a State highway com
mission which will be bipartisan
consisting of two Democrats
and two Republicans. These
commissioners serve without
compensation. They are to ap-
point a State highway engineer
whose salary is fixed at $4,000
a year. The engineers as.
sistants to be compensated no
more than $4,000 annually.
The bill also provides that tn,
State highway engineer, subjec.
to the approval of the STATE
TT. nj
