Obituary.

Geo. Sheriff. was born in Reynolds
County, Mo-, October "a, 1856; died
February. 18th, 1918, at the age Of 81
years, 2 months and 20 days.
He made a profession of religion at
the age OF fourteen, and since that
time no one could have been a more
devoted Christian and earnest church
worker than MIR. Sheriff.. His great
pride was in religious work, and how
much he enjoyed singing. In his four
weeks of illness he often wished for
some n to sing for him. His favor
tie song being "We,n Understand 1t
Better BY and By"
His being taken away reminds US
that this world is not ali eternal abode
that his life was like a flower. 1t
bloomed forth but faded away, leav-
ing a sweet remembrance of a friend
that was a friend to everyone. Te
know him was to love him. He had
no enemies, and never spoke OF any
one except in a kind way.
He was married to Mary Jane Pink
ley, October Goth, 1876, and to them
were born ten children, seven oil
whom are living and three have pass
ed on before him.
A precious one from US is gone,
A voice we lovedis still; :
A place ia vacant in the homo
Which we can never fill.
Call not back the dear departed,
Anchored safe where storms are DER
On the border land we left him Il,
Soon to meet and part nc more.
Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful in thy grave so low;
Thou no more wilt join our number,
Thou no u sorrows know.
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fed;
And in Heaven with JOY to greet thet
Where no farewell tears are shed.

The petition states that since 1914

As we understand it, the attorneys

which has jurisdiction in the matter,

COLUMBIA, Mo March4.--Germina-

that half Of the Missouri seed corn is
worthless. According to j.. G. Hackle-
man Of the University Of Missouri
College OF Agriculture corn should

that have been made show that at
least half Of Missouri corr will not
terminate above so per cent. Some
farmers have found only a few
ears in their whole lot OF seed which
have terminated strong.
As a result Of failure to test seed
corn, stands Of 70 to S. per cent have
become common. In some sections a
70 per cent stand is considered good
enough, and IS and 100 per cent can
be had<by three fourths Of the farm
ers. II costs no more to plant and

The Republican Party. O..
From the New York Times.l

From the New York Times.)
1t was obviously impossible for the
Republican National Committee to
elect John r. Adams Chairman after
the discovery that he had justified the
invasion of Belgium in 1914 and never
retracted. The defense that he only
expressed the view held by all Ameri-
cans who happened, like himself, to
be in Germany inthat year had q fatal
effect. Even if it had been true, q
party cannot successfully be led by
an individual whom it is under the
necessity Of defending and explain
ing.
Mr.. Adams, therefore, had to 60
under, and he would have had to 60
under just the same If the whole com
mittee had been composed Of ardent
pro-Germans. In fact, the disposition
that was made Of the matter leaves
the Republican situation just where it
was before. The Republican Party
has been divided, leaderless, and
drifting. That was what beat it in
1916. 1t sought to be all things to all
mon. 1t was neither hot nor cold
1t held a colorless convention, at
which the lid was clamped down owe
all that mems minds we're exercised
about. 1t carried water on both
shoulders there, and after the cenven.
ton itsought to win the election with.
out an issue, a thing which never in.
spires confidence and never succeeds
except in circumstances totally diff
ferent from those of 1916.
In Congress its nominal leaders,
Mr.. Mann and Mr.. Gallinger, were
devotees of the soft pedal. 1t stood
for no policy. Not only on the war,
but on home issues. it represented
everything aud nothing. 1t refused
either to fight out the issue be-
tween the Progressives and the Old
Guard or to compromise it; it sought,
instead, to ignore 1t and pretend 1t
was not there, which Is the only abso.
lutely certain way in the world to
make a thing worse.
The election OF a Chairman was the
frat opp ortunity the party has hac
since l3lO 70 QemOustfHL6 eltHer Ina
it had. or had not learned wisdom
from experience, that 1t had deter
mined or had not determined to quit
marking time and take a bold anc
decided step either in the right OF
wrong direction. 1t lodged the OPP
portunity. 1t refused to elect q pro-
German to the Craftsmanship, tut re
tanned him as Vice Chairman; &c
much for the war. 1t elected 70 The
Craftsmanship the man favored by the
Progressives, but on Mr.. Adams de
mand, dropped the Progressives from
the party councils; so much for thu
home issues. 1t Is still true, as j
has been every day since the day be-
fore the Republican National Conven,
ton of 1915 met, that no man can tel
whether the Republican Party is 60
ing or coming, although its position
in Congress in giving support to thu
President has been applauded. Par
ties like this do not last long in Amer
lean politics.
