Delegation From Cape Su-
burb Appeals to County
Court.
DECISION TO BE GIVEN
EARLY next WEEK
REQ Star Residents. Too Far From
Polling Places, Is Dele.
gates Plea.

Another voting precinct will be es-
tablished in Cape Girardeau Town
ship for the general election in No
vember, il the request of the voters
IN the Red Star Addition is granted
by the County Court. A delegation
of residents of that section of the
county appeared before the county
court yesterday afternoon asking
that a voting precinct be erected for
the Red Star Addition.
The delegation pointed out to the
court that the precinct in which the
voters Of the Red Star Addition had
to cast their votes, was too far dis
tant for the workingman to get there
in time to exercise their right of vot-
ing.
Many voters of the Red Star Addi-
ton, the delegation said, could not
get to the polling place because OF
their working hours, and therefore
many were deprived of their election
privilege. Many voters are, employ
ed in the factories in the northern
section OF the city and in the north
ern part of the township and could
not get to the precinct poll before
the hour of closing.
The court advised the delegation
that the matter would be taken into
consideration and a decision in the
matter would be given at the August
term of the county court Tha new
precinct, however, can not be estab-
lishcd before the general election in
November.
The 16S election Judges for the com
ing elections were appointed yester
day by the county court. Each pre-
cinct was apportioned six judges.
County Court was adjourned yester
day after all routine business had
been disposed of. A special session
will be held July 90 for the purpose
of receiving the report of the county
h ghway engine as to the amount due
the county from the State Highway
for roads.
This report must be submitted to
the State Highway Department on
August / when the State fixes the
amount due eacn county in the State.

BUSINESS HOUSES IN

Explosion CT Gasoline Stove liz
Store Causes 4 Loss OF
$4,000

KENNETH. June 26.-Onc of the
most destructive fires in this county
for several years, occurred at White
Oak about ~ o'clock noon, WCdnes-
day, which wiped out every business
houS- in the town with the excep-
ton of the general store of j. +. Nc
Honey, which was saved by hard work
on the part of TIE volunteer fire fight
erS, entailing 4 loss of $4,000.
The fire had its origin in the back
room in the IVES Shelton store and
was said to have been caused by the
explosion of gasoline stove on
which Mr.. Shelton was cooking din

To the south of the Shelton store
was a small building which had been
used as Il restaurant, which was also
destroyed. To the west was the
Frisco depot which was also destroy
ed, and along the railroad track south.
Of the depot was a lot of ties, owned
by L. T. NARROW, the tie man, and
they were burned also. NARROW cs-
timated his loss at between $500 and
$500. Shelton also lost, it is report
ed, something like $500 in currency,
which was burned.
Wilson estimates his loss at $500,
and that of J. W. Davis at $4,000.

We will divide up this money. We
will divide up all property. We will
have carnival of loot"
Here sits the Senate of the United
States. Thc modern -rcformer is
among US Just now. He is in the very
zenith of his glory; the flood tide of
his power. Rents have been raised
by some Washington landlords; some
rlnt hogs lave developed-some fell
lows who are entitled TO the contempt
Of all decent men because they are
taking advantage of necessity; and
because that is true in order to af-
feet a few such cases, we will strike
down the old Constitution that is and
has been the sublimest bulwark of
human liberty ever conceived by the
brain OF man. Because OF a tempo
rary annoyance confined to few
people We will do this Understandable
wrong to the great cause of freedom.
And why? The reasons have come
out here at times in the course Of
this debate. There are some land
lords who have raised rents. There
are also some mon of property VINO
have bought homes in Washington in
other years. They live here part of
the time. They live in New York
part of the time, or in Chicago, or
elsewhere. They have really two
homes, and their Washington homes
are not occupied part of the year, but
they arc, nevertheless, their homes.
They bought them. They own them.
Now, the real purpose of section Is
IS to take these homes and turn them
over to certain other people who hap
pen to want to occupy them. That
is the real purpose; and the justifca-'
ton for it is that rents have been
raised in Washington, not by the own
ers of thes" homes but by certain
landlords who rent other property.
If it were the purpose of this
amendment that the Government, in
order 20 meet an actual necessity,
should take vacant houses and occupy
them for government purposes the or
F. gument ! am advancing would not be
made; but the purpose is to take
! these properties from their private
| owners and to turn them over to some
! one other private citizen who does not
| own them, under TIE false pretense,
the fraudulent recital, that they are
being taken for war purposes" They
are not being taken for war purposes
except as you may say that the Gov
ernment can take every farm in the
United States and soy, "There is
war on, and VIC are going to take it,
and then we arc going to deliver it
over to other people to do with as
they see fit or as we sec fit to tell
them to do" That is not a war pur-
pose You might as well say that it
is part of the war purpose for the
Government of the United States to
take over every clothing store in the
United States, and then proceed to
sell the clothing out again to private
