ton or act as barkeepers at irregular
periods are included in the order, ac-
cording to Spencer, and will not have
to do other work to keep out of the
army.
The cases of saloon owners who
have been ordered to seek essential
employment by local boards will now
be reversed.
The first ruling was made in the
case of William E. Armstrong, 1872
Bell avenue, in the Twentieth Ward.
Several of the ward boards had held
that saloon keepers were not in the
non-productive class, while the district
board had previously indorsed orders
for them TO seek essential employ

ruling was made to control the sa

Mexico Missouri message., 1918-10-31

Owners of saloons will not have to
seek essential employment, according
to a ruling of the District Appeals
Board announced yesterday by Selden
p. Spencer, chairman of the Board.
About IS questionnaires have been ex-
amined by the District Board, and
eight were adjudged non-essential.
Spencer said that the ruling does
not apply to men who are hired as
barkeepers, and that saloon owners
would not be given a deferred classi-
fication on this ground. He said the
ground ON which the Board made its
ruling was that the case of saloon
owners is similar to that of restaurant
proprietors. The latter, while not held
essential, are not included in the work
or fight order, while walters and at
tendants who do not control the busi-
ness are held as non-essential.
Both men who own saloons and act
as barkeepers and those who are own
ers and engage in some other occupa.

WHO FIGHTS FOLK?
Will Missouri's Verdict Send Joy or
Grief to the Lawless
Element?

AS Circuit Attorney of st. Louis Jo-
seph w. Folk uncovered more political
corruption than has been brought to
light in any other time or place in the
history of the world. In doing so he
incurred the i'll will of many Of the
beneficiaries of the system of graft,
some of whom were high up in the fl
nancial world. These are fighting him
now.
AS Governor he closed up the race
tracks, and the race track gamblers
are fighting him now. AS Governor he
secured the enactment of the primary
law, placing the power in the people to
control their own government. There
were some who never liked this
change from the old system under
which the political bosses could
thwart the power of the people As
Governor he enforced the liquor laws
in such cities as St. Louis, Kansas
City and st. Joseph Because he en-

forced these laws the liquor interests
are fighting him now.
AS chief counsel for the Interstate
Commerce Commission Gov. Folk un-
covered financial crookedness of the
New Haven, Rock Island and a mum.
Der of other railroad systems. Those
who profited by the railroad financial
graft are now opposing him. Folks
enemies are the enemies of the public.
IL is very good rule, in order to de-
termine on which side to fight to look
and see on which side the enemies of
the public are fighting and then get
on the other side and oppose them.
Who would rejoice If Folk were de-
feated? The grafters, the gamblers
and the saloons would shout for JOY,
and there would be delight in every
den of infamy in the state.
Is it better to serve the public than
it is to serve the lawless Folk has
served the public. Will the public now
stand by him Mr.. Voter, it is up to
you to say whether you will send a
message to the lawless that will cheer
and encourage them or one that will
discourage and depress. The defeat
of Folk would encourage the lawless
everywhere. His victory would cheer
the law-abiding.- Lamar Leader.

GARDENERS APPEAL
Governor Urges Election of Folk, Con-
gressional Nominees and Entire
Ticket In Interview.

Gov. Frederick d. Gardner, Mis-
sourrs popular war Governor, is keen
ly interested in the election of Gov.
Joseph w. Folk to the United States
Senate and every Democratic candi-
date for Congress, as is shown in the
following interview which he has CIV
en- the public:
81 am intensely interested in the re-
sult of the election on Nov. g." said
Gov. Frederick D. Gardner this morn
ing. Ever since the outbreak of the
war Missouri has stood loyalty behind
President Wilson and has responded to
every call. l am sure the state will
continue to do so. In order to render
him the fullest measure of support, it
will be necessary to elect to the Unit
cd States Senate a man who is in

him. With his intimate knowledge of
am sure that his continuation as a
member of its highest court will best
serve the interests of the people of the
state.
"The problems of reconstruction of
education after the war make 1t impor-
tant that one who is thoroughly in
touch with them should be chosen as
State Superintendent of Public
Schools. The present incumbent, Uel
W. Lamkin, has the necessary knowl
edge of the present situation and his
record shows that he is thoroughly in
accord with the idea that the public
schools, taught by loyal citizens of the
United States and using English as
the language OF instruction, are the
real safeguards of American democ-
racy.
"As Governor l am justly proud of
the record made by the present admin
istration during the pastrtwo years. 1t
will stand the closest scrutiny of the
people OF the state. However, the work
is not yet completed. In order to car.
ry it to a successful conclusion, shall
have to have the support of the next
General Assembly To secure the best
result, men in harmony with the state
administration should be chosen to the
Senate and House.
"For the reasons above stated, be
lieve that the interests of the state Of
| Missouri and the interests of the coun
try as whole demand the election Of
| the ticket nominated at the recent
Democratic primary. ] am sure thai
by choice of Gov. Folk as United
States Senator and by the election O
the Democratic nominees for Congress
in the several districts the people o
! Missouri will send word to the grea
President of the United States tha
they will continue to support him t,
