cox PLEASED WITH LONG

Gov. Cox is pleased with the nomi-
nation of Breckenridge Long for Unit
ed States Senator from Missouri.
Long, who was nominated by the
Democrats for Senator August 8,
went to Dayton Saturday to attend
the notification ceremonies.
when anything real was to be
done in Washington and done swiftly
and correctly, there is a man who was
chosen to do it," said Governor Cox
as he pointed to Long during con-
versation with friends. This senti-
ment was also expressed by Chair
man George White of the Democratic
National Committee.
Long had a conference with Gov
Cox, Franklin Roosevelt and Chairman
White, all of whom he has known for
number Of years.
The former Assistant Secretary OF
State said he was certain of his own
election, but was really more interest.

FARMERS PREPARE TO
CRUSH LIMESTONE

After taking soil samples and max.
ing tests showing that a number of
farms in Lincoln county needed an ap-
plication of ground limestone, the
farmers found it almost impossible to
get the material shipped into the
country. This was due to the present
situation in freight transportation. 1t
looks to the farmers as if they will
have to crush their own limestone if
they have any to use at all. Owing
to poor transportation facilities,
which seem to be more or less preva-
lent, several Missouri counties have
already found this practice advisable.
Missouri is very rich in limestone de-
posits, many of which are suitable for
agricultural purposes. A recent pub
LEGATION of the University of Missouri
College of Agriculture on agricultur-
al lime Bulletin 171) sets forth the
value of various limestone deposits
throughout the state for application
to the soil to correct acidity. This
bulletin also tells what soils need
lime, how to crush limestone and how
to apply it. A copy may be had free

The heavy vote Atkinson received in
Kansas City more than unbalanced
what either Farirs and Mayer, indi-
vidually, received there and in St.
Louis and St. Joseph, increasing At
kinson's already heavy rural lead by
3,463 more over Farirs and 1892
more over Mayer. The heavy st. Jo-
seph vote of Mayer made him lead
Farris in the three big cities.
Outside of st. Louis city and Buch-
anan and jackson counties, Atkinson
received total of 63,301 votes; Far
ris, 10000 votes; and Mayer, 31,126
votes. The rural lead alone of Akin
son over Farris, the second man in the
race, was enough to exceed the COM
bined vote that these two received in
the three places considered by 884,
had their vote been concentrated on
either one, without considering the
1882 votes Missouri's next Governor
received there.

ulations and heartily pledged his
strong, active support for the Novem-
Der election.
The magic name of Stone was the
sesame which paved the way to the
Democratic nomination for State
Treasurer and brought the nominee
the votes of thousands of electors
who did not personally know the three
candidates and who had never heard
of the Scott county "doughboy." 1t

ties that Stone was nephew of the

OH, FOR AN EXCUSE!

The profteer seizes on every ex-
cuse to raise his profits. And if he
has not an excuse ready, he so ma
nipulates the situation that he car
find one. For instance, now, with the
price Of sugar declining because it can
no longer be concealed that there is
plenty of sugar, the wall goes up that
living costs are bound to increase this
fall because transportation charges
have been allowed to increase.
But this fallacious argument has
been exposed by no less a person than
the president Of the Missouri Pacific
railroad, a man who understands ex-
actly what the ratio of freight charg-
es is to the ultimate prices charged
the consumer.
President B. F. Bush of the Mis-
souri, Pacific has made public the &C

late well known and popular United
States Senator, William ]. Stone, and
the enchantment of the name worked
silently day and night.
This Democratic nominee is ster-
ling Democrat who established rec
ord for efficiency and ability through
being the Treasurer of Bates county.
His candidacy will strengthen the
Democratic ticket in Cass, Henry,
Johnson, st. Clair and Vernon coun-
ties, in which he is almost as well
known and as popular as he is in

The Old Market Basket

How clear to my mind the prices ruling
When boy and could eat all my fill
When, famished came from my much hated schooling
And sat down to dinner with Harry and Bill.
A great plate of meat-duck or turkey in season.
Corn, turnips, asparagus, peaches galore,
With three four pies-there no earthly reason
To stop except stomachs that would not hold more
All came from the basket the brown wicker basket,
The old market basket that father once bore
Eggs then cost a trife-each fresh daisy,
No hated cold storage known, by the way,
And every then would have thought you crazy
To ask for nut butter" folks do today.
Twelve cents for pound Of good pork of scrapple
A little bit higher for chops at the store,
Twas kept in the village by Marvin and Chapple,
And no delivered things then at the door
They came in the basket, the brown wicker basket
The old market basket that father once bore.
How oft in the present when worried and harried
think with sigh of those days of delight,
And picture the basket that father then carried
And brought home filled up to the brim every night,
How fresh its contents fragrant as honey,
The prices, all told, made aughable score.
How eagerly, gladly I'd PUNK down my money
For three times their cost at that time, even four,
If fresh from the basket the brown wicker basket,
The old market basket that father once bore
New York Sun.

LESSON FROM
EUROPE
Drawn by Unionist OF Value
To American Workers

Fresno Cal-Ln his annual report
g the California State Federation of
Labor, Secretary Treasurer Scharren-
berg said
"If California trade unionists gener-
ally could only see prevailing condi
tions ih Europe they would surely JOIN
IN silent prayer Of Thanksgiving for
the priceless privilege of living ia So
wonderful land as our own Califor-
MIA True, even ia California every
thing is not just as it ought to be,
but here we have opportunities for in
dividual and collective development,
unheard Of in Europe"
Secretary Scharenbery speaks from
information secured first hand, as BE
recently attended an international sea-
mems conferece in italy and after
wards toured Europe.
1T was not altogether ain inspiring
journey" he continues. because mis-
cry and hunger are in painful eri-
denee practically throughout Europe
Moreover things seem to be going
from bad to worse
In urging American tade unionists
to use sane methods, SchaYenborg
said:
Under our system Of government
we need but persuade the majority
to bring about any desired change.
Thus, when the workers are really
united upon a given issue, when their
4 hearts are bent upon the achievement
Of a certain object nothing can stop
success.
From time to time minorities
among us become inpatient with the
progress Of our movement This is
healthy sign But when mpadence
seeks an outlet through The channels
Of abuse it only defeats it's own pur-
pose.
Those who hope to further lofty
ideals and worthy aspirations by such
tactics simply direct attention TO the
fact that there has been little physical
I progress in our species for many
thousands Of years The Cro-Magnon
race, which lived perhaps 10000 years
ago, was at least equal to any modern
people in size and strength. And
some so-called unprogressive races,
such as the zulus, Samoans and Ta-
hitians, are even today envied by the
people Of the white race for strength
and beauty
"Of course, there is a difference be
tween physical and intellectual pro
gress, yet current history has made
it plain that we are a long, long way
from the millennium

WANT NON-UNION
SHOP

Sioux City, Iowa Cheap labor em-
ployers in this city want the non-union
shop and are centering their figl
against the Plumbers Union. The US
ual labor injunction has been issued
and the anti-unionists are opposing
contractors who recognize the union
The advocates of coolie labor stand
ards are trying to conceal their pur
pose by the use Of such tricky ard
untruthful terms as the ''open" shop.
Trade unionists refuse to use this
term, and insist that these employers
are non-unionists because they reject
collective bargaining.
