was:
Thank you--ior-more than you

The last two words were for Mr..
Crowns ears. As he uttered them
he bowed formally-he had been
standing, as was his punctilious Gus

talked to me-and turned with
hands outstretched to receive the

pected meeting with Dr.. Petit in
Mr.. Crowns pharmacy was dis
tinctly one of the times. If the

my moral anatomy it would have
been all easy thing for me to have
accepted DIR. Pettit's humble etfac-
ing of himself with a few gracious,
meaningless words and escaped the
possible complications of renewing
my friendship with him.
But his unexpected assurance that

the "old foolishness," together with
his insistance that although he did
not intend to ask where | was stop

where | could reach him in case of
any emergency needing him,

care and watchfulness which this
man had given ME upon several oc-
casions when | had needed him
sorely. / had other memories, too,
Of the long and faithful unpaid serv-

the ordinary mercenary sense of
the word, service which had been
given at the cost of a burning de-
sire upon the young physicians part
to take his place among the first
medical units to go to France. 49,.
Obligations such as these could
not be dismissed lightly. I saw my

Untrammelled by their hue or hair?

Are trodden meath the conqueror's

And truth, in every heart be born,
And man be given the power to feel,
Not It'll the creeds of caste and clan
Be buried ne'er to rise again,
And men accept creations plan
Nor longer feel the pulse of CAIN
Then shall the earth, her harvest

The desert place shall bloom and

And every man, his strength shall
WELD
With good intent, devoid of guile.

SLUGGERS AND GUNMEN
WORK AS THEY PLEASE
Beat Up Republican Officials and In
timidate Voters Throughout City
Without Police interference.

Democratic sluggers. ballot box
suffers, gunner and denizens of the
underworld conducted a carnival of
blood and violation of law and order
at the election held in Kansas City.
They carried out their high-handed
outrages without any apparent effort
being made by the police, the county
marshal or federal officers to inter-
fere.
Seldom in the history of Kansas
City elections was such lawlessness
practiced. Republican judges of cleo
tions were compelled to run from the
booths to escape the violent tempers
of Democratic gunner; Republican
challengers and workers were slug
ged and intimidated; Republican vot-
ers were harrassed and brow-beaten,
and in many instances driven from
the polls and denied the right to ex-
ercise their citizenship; Republican
voters who went to the polls in many
Democratic precincts in the lower
North Side wards, and in the Sixth,
Eighth, Ninth and Eleventh wards
which were terrorized by Democratic
gangs, found that they had been voted
by Democrats giving the names of the
Republican voters to the judges of
election.
Police Cant See."
Policemen stood inactively by and
when Democrats wanted to add to
their crooked work or slug and main
Republicans found it convenient to be
absent. Whenever a Democrat thought
1t necessary to remove Republican
workers for their activities on trump
ed up accusations the policeman was
always present to take the innocent
Republican to the police station where
they were thrown into cells on the
flimsy charge of investigation.
This carnival of violation OF all laws
of decency started early. 1t began Dy
judges delaying voting in Republican
precincts and challenging Republican
men and women ON trivial things
Long lines of voters were handicapped
by these tricks, and from the opening
to the closing of the polls, the election
commissioners were kept busy stop
ping and discouraging these tactics.
