The Prohibition Enforcement Bill
described by members opposing it
as drastic enough to invite a presi-
Dental veto. finally was passed
Tuesday by the House.

The vote was taken after a mo
ton by Representative lgoe. Demo-
crat. Missouri to recommit the bill
had been defeated. 255 to 1856.
Nearly every member of the House

much noise during the roll call
that Republican Leader Mondell
was recorded as supporting the Ieoe
motion. He was permitted to

Set Another Date

Date of the special election tr-
dered by the county court for
August 2 to vote on the one million
bond proposition for good roads in
Monroe County has been changed to
August % Our county court made
the same mistake made by Marion
and Shelby counties-took the 1917
assessment for a basis instead of
that of 1915. However, we are
of the opinion the delay means lare-
er vote for the bond issue as it gives
more time to get the matter before
the public which could not have
been properly done had the election
been held tomorrow. The Monroe
Special District proposition was not
settled until the latter part of last
week and was not generally known,
and would therefore have caused a
good deal of opposition. The DEM
ocrat is for good roads first. last
and all the time, bur we don't think
the bond issue of one million dol.
lars assisted by federal and state
aid is going to build the 253 miles
of road now contemplated. We
presume the main roads will be
built first and in this case if the
money is not sufficient to complete
the work some of the laterals will
not be constructed. 1t is a big
proposition and the voter should
study the proposition from the off
ferent angles.

Boom in Baby Market

There's going to be a boom in the
baby market during 1919. according

Around three million babies they
say will be added to the Nations
roll. The forecast is based on sta
tistics showing that in 1917, for in,
stance. in certain states in which
accurate birth records are kept, ex-
actly 1.353,792 babies were deliv
cred.
Now that the war is over, tbous.

ing to official reports.
The result, you can see quickly
will be q bumper crop" of babies,

Death Penalty

Lawyers defending men accused
of murder in the fiFst degree are
anxious to know when the act pas.
fsed by the last Legislature restoring
capital punishment in Missouri will
become operative, and if the death
penalty can be inflicted upon men
convicted of murder in the first de.
gree prior to the going into effect oi
the act.
Attorney General McAllister said
he was satisfied that the law would
90 into effect ninety days following
the adjournment of the special ses.
sion July s. This would put the
law into full force and effect October
6. AS to the probability of those.
who may in the meantime be con.
victed of murder in the first degree
or any one of the six offenses named
in the capital punishment laws, be
ing made to suffer the extreme
penalty, the attorney general said
the supreme court has never had
such question under consideration
This question probably will come
before the court if there is a convic
tion for first degree murder com
mitted before the act goes into eff
feet.

Threshing Tardy

Missouri farmers have never been
so busy with threshing wheat, the
million acres increase over 1918 re.
sulting in crisis because the mum
Der of threshing machines has not
enlarged in accordance with the
swelling of the wheat area.
In 1912 Missouri grew 100000
acres of wheat, producing 81 mil.
lions of bushels. In 1919 the wheat
crop now being threshed covers
4.243O00 acres. The yields at the
machines indicate at this time
about "a million bushels. averaging
about fifteen bushels in the state.
Threshing. although being rushed,
is proceeding comparatively slowly
because of the big bulk of straw,
the many bad bundles resulting
from lodged grain. ard the rains, all
of which make tough tbreshing.
Wheat in most parts of Missouri
is grading up better than was an
ticipated Some wheat is making

age. Farmers protest against the
excessive penalties for wheat dam

States Grain Buying Corporation,
but fortunately as yet but little
Missouri wheat has been forced to
government buying. the commercial
trade taking it, practically all.
In communities where the wheat
acresges has been abnormally in
creased in the sectors that have
not normally been wheat producing
counties, the shortage Of threshins
machines is the most serious, thus
making sure that the threshine
period must be longer than usual,
even if there were no rains to delay
the work.

Outlook Good

The process of making good roads
is now in what may be called a
fourth stsge in many sections of
the country. The first stage. OF
course, is thinking about good roads;
the second, getting the roads on
paper; the third, getting the roads
on the telephone poles, and the
fourth, getting the roads on the
ground.
There has been whole lot of
thought about good roads in this
country for some little time now.
!. Of course the thought must come
first. but it has been inclined to
liDger and play safe. Then there
have many volumes of paper vol.
umes of paper roads. They may
help to fill up a national museum
for cUrios some day. But the tel
ephone post roadsl They have star
ed US in the face for 10 these many
years, and no community has been
so poor but that it could boast
of its trail" route" highway" or
''thorouehfare." all with special
markers. green. red, white, blue,
black The chief service of these
roads has been in the partial pres.
ervation of the telephone poles
covered by the paint.
Now that some of these roads
are getting down to solid earth,
they may be expected to get the
traveller somewhere and, incidental
ly. not only to preserve but to en-
phance the material well being of
the communities they touch.
