IT'S ALL BUNCOMB

Republican criticism of President
Wilson's conduct of the war, it seems,
will be one of the main accomplish
ments of the extra session of Con-
gress. If members of that party are
hoping to gain anything by this they
are sadly mistaken.
American soldiers returning from
France tell the true story. They
speak with pride and say they were
the best cared for soldiers in Europe,
despite the fact they were 5000 miles
from their base Of supplies, with a
submarine INFESTED sea to cross.
This club bub" about the wasting
Of money is like criticising a man for
extinguishing flames destroying his
home and letting a chicken house burn.
1t is probably true that money may
have been unwiesly spent but Anleri-
cans will bear in mind it was eXpend-
ed in winning the war and not in los
ing IL and paying indemnities to form
er Emperor Wilhelm as had been ex-
peeted in the German circles. sl 4
Their action is all buncomb. B

UNQUENCHABLE
FAITH OF WOMEN

Although certain cynical poets, pro-
Tossing a misogyny that was general
ly feigned, have charged women with
fickleness, the record Of the unquench-
able faith of women is against them,
from the days when Penelope put off
her host of suitors, because of her be-
lief in the return Of Ulysses-although
he really deserved Enoch Arden's fate
until the past week, when the wives
of the daring Australian and Ameri-
can aviators that were so much tossed
about in air and sea that their sur
vival seemed miracle, refused to be-
lieve harm had befallen their hus-
bands. Mrs. Towers faith never fall
tered in the darkest hours. Nor did
Mrs. Reds. Her husbands plane met
reverses at the beginning and in the
middle of his historic flight, but never
once did she doubt that he was safe
or that he would win the high honor
for himself and country of making the
first Atlantic flight. She con-
fessed that the most trying days were
when he remained mysteriously idle
in the Azores.
But these displays of faith were
scarcely comparable with that of Mrs.
Hawker The Americans had chosen
the safer course. Vessels were sta
toned at convenient intervals for
their rescue. There was still great
hazard, both to life and to the success
of the adventure, but the world was
convinced by the precautions they had
taken that at least one of the three
American planes would reach its goal
and that no aviator was likely to find
watery grave. But the unanimity of
opinion which buoyed up the faith of
the wives of the Americans was of a
character to bring distress to Mrs.
Hawker. Only for brief time the
day after Hawker and Grieve started
was there any optimism. In few
hours that was dispelled. The British
Navy, after sweeping the North At
lantic with the wireless, announced
that not trace of Hawker had been
found since the hop off. The London
Mail gave up hope and rendered a
magnificent sum to Mrs. Hawker on
the assumption that she was wild
ow. King George wrote her message
of tender sympathy. But although
naval officials, monarch and newspa-
pers had surrendered hope, she had
not. She declined to discuss the prob
ability Of her widowhood. Even when |
the good news came she did not break
down. She merely tackled a placard |
to the door, briefly announcing the
safety of her husband, as if all the
fuss the civilized world had been MAX
ing was needless. She just knew Har-
ry Hawker was safe, no matter how
many condolences had come from all |
the great folks of England.-Globe-
Democrat.

STATE CAPITAL LETTER
(By Means Ray.)

Jefferson City, Mo.--With the ad-
journment of the Legislature talks
about here has been concerning the
measures enacted which will receive
the approval of Governor Frederick
d. Gardner.
Most of the important measures,
including Workmen's Compensation,
soft drink tax, increase of corporation
franchise tax and some revenue mea-
sures have received his signature as
have more than a hundred revision
bills.
The past week has been spent by
the Governor in giving his attention
to the appropriation measures enact
ed. The expected revenues of the
State are exceeded about 100000 and
it is the Governors task to go over
them and bring them down to the
amount of revenue.
This Governor Gardner will do for
he has said time and again that he
will not permit a deficit in the States
business at the end Of his administra-
ton.
Those who know the Governor real
ize he will do this for his one ambi-
ton is to leave the States business
affairsi n good shape when he retires
office.
Persons here and visitors from all
sections of the State who have been
here are quite interested in the State
wide meeting of Democrats which is
to be held in st. Louis Saturday, May
81, at the Planters Hotel
Chairman Neale and Secretary
Fleming of the Democratic State Com
mittee, are making every preparation
for a most interesting meeting and
the gathering is expected to be one of
the largest ever held in the State.
Inerest in the meeting is greater
than usual because of the new organ
ization plan which is being worked
out in st. Louis by Sam Lazarus, Sam
Fordyce and others who are planning
to do their work in such way that
the illegal registration of negro vot-
ers in the city will be impossible. I'm
der old conditions many thousand ne
groes have been on the registration
books that were not entitled to be
here.
Mr.. Neale and Mr.. Fleming are Civ
ing their time and talent unselfshly
to this work and are being praised by
members of their party in all sections
of the State.
The following new school laws af-
fecting the State at large will be of
more than unusual interest.
A full time compulsory attendance
law.
Increased appropriation for the
State department.
An appropriation of 205,000 for vo-
cational education.
A compulsory part time school law.
Increasing salaries of county su-
perintendents fifty per cent.
Allowing districts to vote special
levy for equipment and supplies.
Giving the State Superintendent SUI
pervision of instruction in State in
situations.
Submitting constitutional amend
ment to permit rural school districts
to vote 81 on the 500 valuation.
Farmers of the State are very much
disappointed over the defeat of the
hay inspection law in the House. OPP
ponents apparently worked the Re-
publican members up to high pitch
when they caucused and agreed to de-
feat this legislation so much desired
by agricultural interests of the State.
