The weather through January was
simply spring like. There were per-
haps not more than four or five
cloudy days during the entire month,
which fact most people, particularly
the farmers, appreciated very greatly,
owing to the scarcity of feed for their
live stock. Surely, "God tempers the
winds to the shorn lamb" and often
"behind q frowning providence He
hides smiling face"
A real estate agent from Michigan
was out here last week, ''looking up a

high, ranging from fifty to one hun
dred dollars an acre. The man who
owns Missouri land, that is leyel and
does not wash nor overflow, cannot
possibly lose any money on his land,
for within the next few years such
land will double in value; that is, such
land as is properly valued at this
time. Those men in the north are
seeking cheaper lands, where they
can have free stock range, and they
will soon locate in this section of the
country. or this fact we are posi-
lively certain.

m ay come in contact, irrespective of
party. Few, if any, have been more
loyal and effective in support of the
present State administration, or did
more to make the election of the
present head possible. Mr.. Bradshaw
was for many years newspaper man
and still holds his membership in the
Missouri Press Association. We doubt
il there is a man in the State who has
the extensive newspaper acquaint-
ance and holds the personal confidence
of so many men as does Mr.. Brad
shaw. He is personally known in ev-
cry county in the State and is held in
high esteem by his every acquaint-
ance. He has made in Office pains
taking, careful and efficient official
and the appointing power Is
wise in recognizing his value to the
party, his popularity in Office and
splendid loyalty to his friends. For
many years Mr.. Bradshaw has been q
valuable Democrat, as many men in
high official position can bear evil
dence. His consistent, persistent and
intelligent support has been worth
much to many and therefore it is not
now strange that all active Democrats
gladly concede him second term
without opposition.

From Sergeant Wood.

My Dear Mother-It is rather diff
cult for me to realize that another
new year has come and gone, another
year before US, and also that it has
been sixteen long months since I bid
farewell to you all and donned my
military togs, and life.
You remember one thing, mother,
that you said, "I would be sorry that
] went to war for my country" but I
have not. OF course, it would be
useless for me to try to tell you that I
have enjoyed all the extreme hard
ships that such life has forced US to
endure, but, mother, there has never
been a time in the sixteen months of
service that was not just as deter.
mined to do my bit, give my ell, if
necessary, as was the day ! deter
mined in my mind to cast aside, al
most as an insult, all claims of ex-
emption, of the special natures, and
take my stand beside the boys, upon
whom the lot had fallen to fight for
our rights, our ideals of democracy,
our cause for liberty, for the world.
Mother, you did not understand then,
did you? The thing was so terrible,
so sudden, so distant, and you had not
thought of it as had thought. You
SO dreaded to give me up, but, moth
er, know you did later, and was glad
and proud to give me for such grand
and noble cause; else you could never
have bid me goodbye and God speed
with almost a smile when who knew
but the great and good God that 1t
would be for the last time on this
earth. And dear old father, how hard
you struggled to keep the quiver out
of your voice % you gave me shake
of the hand at the station door as l
will never be given again, and wish
ed me "good luck" Now the trying
moments have passed and in few
short m onths we boys will be coming
home with glad shout of victory and
the joy of reunion and the happiness
of future peaceful years will give us
cause to say in the end, that "God is
good, and that God is still upon His
throne, that all is we'll with the world"
Mother, I just thought I would write
you this letter to-day as this is your
birthday, and fathers not far passed.
Ionly hope that you are both well
and not having too bad winter and
enjoying life as you deserve to. I
have not had letter from home for
over seven weeks. Am still here in
this classification camp, don't know
when will get back with my COM
pany. Hope soon.
With love and best wishes to all the
folks,
Your son,

tMoberly Democrat,

It is conceded in political circles
that Jas. T. Bradshaw, OF Kansas
City, will be re-appointed State Grain
and Warehouse Commissioner with
out opposition. This is as it should be
and we are pleased to know that all
concerned have taken so practicable
and sensible view of the conditions
and circumstances. 1t is not only q
just tribute to one of the most active
Democratic workers sfor- many years
the party has had, but 1t is also an en-
dorsement of efficiency in Office and
kindly courtesy TO ell with whom he

women Of America assisted as they
did in the winning Of the war with
Germany, they are intelligent enough
to vote. They went right out onto
the battle fields, into the trenches,
gave up their lives, suffered in every
way with our soldiers, and rendered
material assistance in making the
world free.
A resolution was offered by re-
publican last week and unanimously
adopted by the House empowering
the speaker to appoint a committee to
draft bill regulating the clerical
force of the House. l made my first
speech in favor of its adoption, and
was one of three Democrats and like
number OF Republicans appointed by
the speaker to draft . bill cutting
down the clerical force to the mini
mum and making those employed by
the House efficient. The speaker
made speech in favor of the adop-
ton of the resolution and made the
statement that the pay roll was "load-
ed down." The majority floor leader
told me a day or so ago that there
were people on the pay roll who had
rendered no service. There is con-
siderable discussion about the repeal
of the primary law, but it will not be
repesled, in my opinion. A large
majority of the House seem to be in
favor of the primary law. The chief
reason given by those who OPP
pose the primary is that only men of
wealth can run for Office, but the
facts refute the argument. Governor
Gardner is about the only man of
wealth to be elected to state Office in
recent years. Senator Reed defeated
Francis who is q very wealthy man.
Major defeated Cowherd who was
man of wealth, and all the present
state officials are comparatively poor
men. I shall oppose the repeal of
the primary law, but am in favor of
amending it in some particulars. I
have offered an amendment as to fill
| ing of vacancies after the primary.
The bill provides that only vacancies
can exist only by reason Of the death
or permanent removal from the coun-
ty, district or state of the candida ate.
There may be some objection to this,
but think best for the people to
make the nominations instead of a
few bosses. A good deal of partisan
ship has been displayed in the Ho use.
For instance, a resolution was offer ed
by Democrat favoring league of
nations to prevent future wars. Not
withstanding the fact that Ex-Presi-
dent Taft is president of the League
to Enforce Peace, and favors a League
of Nations, and Notwithstanding th 9
fact that one Of the last acts of Ex-
President Roosevelt's life was to
write an article to the Kansas City
Star favoring it, the majority party
voted it down and voted to refer it to
a committee, "dead" committee at
that, which means its burial forever,
perhaps Senator Spencer also favors
a league of nations. 1 will endeavor
to keep the people Of my county in
formed as to important matters here
from time to time.
Sincerely yours,
JOHN III. KEITH.
