Of Great Britain's liquor trade would
involve an outlay of $1,500,000,O00 ac-
cording to the committee which has

A RUGGED ROAD FOR
MISSOURPS "GOP"
(By A. T. Edmonston.)

jefferson City, Mo-, Dec. And
now it is all rough calling again for
the Republican party of Missouri.
Just when a portion Of the "wet" st.
Louis machine had agreed with ma
iority of the rural dry leaders that
Senator Seldos Spencer was to be re-
nominated at the August primary TO
succeed himself, and it was to be en-
tirely forgotten that he voted against
lifting the wartime prohibition lid
, when that proposition was up for con-
siderntion in the United States Sem
ata in early November, word comes
from Excelsior Springs that the west
ern g. o. p. leader, Liv Morse, had
again rocked the party boat through
launching a senatorial boom in that
end of Missouri for j. L. MINIS of
st. Louis, Vice President and General
Solicitor for the Wabash railroad.
Throughout Missouri the belief is
and has always been that Morse never
makes political move unless Joe
Black of Richmond and Tom Marks Of
Kansas City, two more G. o. p. leaders
CT western Missouri, are with him.
When rural Republicans learned
that Morse had come out openly and
above board for Attorney MINIS they
readily concluded that the Excelsior
| Springs party leader knew for GER
tainty that Walter c. Dickey, the mil
lionaire clay product manufacturer of
the KGw, had definitely made it known
| through Tom Marks and Joe Black
that he would not be candidate for
tie senatorial party nomination at the
coming August primary. Dickey,
who was easily defeated by Senator
Reed four years ago, is Canadian
by birth, and, it is said, that when he
looked the situation over and digcov-
cred that if nominated he would have
to depend for his election On the votes
of thousands of 6. o. p. pro-Germans
of st. Louis, Kansas City, st. Joseph
and other Missouri cities, including
those who live in Franklin, Gascon
ade, Cole, Usage, Warren, jefferson,
Ste. Genevieve, St. Charles, Scott,
Perry and Cape Girardeau counties, it
went against his Americanism.
Further advice from Excelsior
Springs is that Morse intends to jour
ney early in December to St. Louis
to make it definitely known there to
the various party factions that the
Republicans Of western Missouri viii
not stand for the denomination of
Senator Spencer. Not alone, it is
stated, is his dry vote in the Senate on
wartime prohibition objected to in
Kansas City and St. Joseph and Ex-
celsior Springs by the rank and file Of
the Republican party, but it is pointed
out there are other weak spots in his
record as junior Senator from Mis-
souri, during the last two years. The
opposition IL recalling that on July 4
