significance his nomination would
bear would be that the st. Louis
machine had at last secured Repub-
lican nominee for Governor who
would do its bidding and meet its de-
mands. Obviously, the choice Mis-
souri, Republicans are called upon to
make lies between a big noise and
innocuousness. OF course, it would
be much more interesting if Mr.. Hyde
could win, for very obvious reasons.
Things inane and tasteless are not in
viting at the present stage of public
thought, and Mr.. McJimsey offers
nothing new. He is the same old
story. He is simply a Republican, in
complete harmony with the Repub-
lioan machiue, and subservient to its
bosses, having no platform except
those magic words "Give us the jobs.''

The Reconstruction" Congress.

Commenting on the proposed "joy
fride" of some hundred or more MEM
bers of Congress to Hawaii, the Phili-
pines, China and Japan, the Spring
field Republican, one of the leading
independent newspapers of the coun-
try, in calling attention to the total
failure of the present Congress to en-
act any constructive legislation, says:
"If this Congress we're to adjourn
on June or 2, with every member
going on tour at the expense of the
taxpayers, it's labors might be brought
to fitting conclusion. Mr.. Mondell,
the floor leader of the House, says:
.There is no reason why Congress
should not pass all the appropriation
bills, including the complete program
laid down at the beginning of the ses-
sion, and adjourn by June o." He
ought to know. Its program is not
SO extensive as to prevent the plan
from being carried outfit it can be
said to have any program.
sit was elected as a reconstruction
Congress, back in the fateful days of
November, 1918. But how much are
we reconstructed? Congress has the
new nonpartisan railroad reorganiza-
ton law to it's credit, but what else
has it done that can be pointed to
with pride? Isn't it one of the worst
failures, as Congress, the country
has had to endure in fifty years?
The Senate's chief business for year
or more has been the peace treaty,
and the Senate's own resolution re-
turning the unratified treaty to the

Is Mr.. Long 'sPussyfooting'?

Mr.. j. @. Vorbeck, writing to the
st. Louis Post-Dispatch, says some
things pertinent to Mr.. Longs candi-
dacy for U. s. Senator, which l copy
because they are germane to the chief
question now before the people
Federal Prohibition. Says Mr.. Vor-
beck:
In talk on April Is at his dinner
at the Planters Hotel, Breckinridge
Long said, speaking Of the eighteenth
amendment:
"I'believe that there are certain re-
siduary powers in the state not dele
gated to the Federal Government in
the exercise of which each state can
define for itself an intoxicant, pro-
vided always the letter and spirit of
the Constitutional amendment are
observed.n
Lst us see about these "certain re-
siduary powers in the states" he
mentions. Whether or not the Feder
al prohibition amendment has depriv-
ed these states of any right can be
determined by the simplest of all
mental processes-a easy comparison
between what was and what's. All men
admit that before the Federal prohibi-
ton amendment was adopted every
state in the Union had right to au-
thorize its citizens to manufacture and
sell liquor; and since the adoption of
the prohibition amendment all men
must admit no state in this Unicn has
q right to authorize its citizens to
manufacture and sell liquor; and no
man will deny that this radical change
is due entirely to the Federal prohibit
ton amendment How, then, can
Mr.. Long have the .effrontery to tell
us that Federal prohibition has not
deprived any state of this right? He
seems to have fallen into a hopeless
confusion of ideas and when you
analyze his contention-for will not
dignity it by calling it an argument
it comes to this: That'if you can
take away the rights of the state by
amending the Constitution, you have
not taken them away at all. The
argument is so transparently. illogical
that you would have right to doubt
it we're it not published in black and
white as being advanced by Mr. Long
and many others OF equal ability, but
less reputation.
Mr.. Long reverses himself, for in
the beginning of his statement he
says, "the constitutional amendment
providing for prohibition is fact and
at the present time is the supreme
law of the land.n When Mr.. Long
makes this statement and in the next
breath asks You to believe that these
states have not been deprived of
right simply because it was taken
from them by constitutional amend
ment he cannot have much respect
for our intelligence and we cannot
have mnch respect for his sincerity.
He might stand up like a man and
meet the question. 1t will impeach
his democracy, of course, for him to
confess that he deliberately fayors
the violation of the rights OF these
states but he cannot mitigate his guilt
by entering plea that affronts COM
mon sense and compeis US to distrust
his candor. Let him boldly renounce
the faith of his fathers and without
paltering with his intellect or our in
telligence declare contempt for
those who support the doctrine OF
states' rights.

The Parole Of Begley.

Editor Blanton of the Sikeston Stan
dard, after recounting the causes
which led to his downfall, has this
good word for young George Begley
of Poplar Bluff:
The editor is personally acquainted
with Begley and his pity goes out to
him and his family. He pleaded guilty
to his mistake and was given Che light
est sentence for forgery, ten years,
and is now serving his time like man
in the State prison. Such men, how
ever, should be given chance and
not be called on to suffer to any great
er extent. Begley's untiring efforts
to prove what could be done to in
crease the value of land and produc-
ton in Southeast Missouri, should
never be overlooked. Southeast Mis-
souri, owes to this, young man debt
of gratitude and he should be helped
in many ways. His incarceration
will, no doubt, affect his future life is
carried to the extreme. Begley's
name will go down in history of South
east Missouri, some day, as having
shown and demonstrated what could
be done to redeem many thousands
OF acres of heretofore worthless land.
They are now beginning to be inter-
ested in the growing of rice in the
eastern part of Southeast Missouri
and this year there are several rice
farms being opened up. 1t is only a
question OF few years until many
thousands of acres will be in rice.
Begley, in the common sense of the
word, is not a criminal. He never in
| tended for moment, or had any in
tention of hsrming anyone in the
least. He tried last summer to inter-
est his local Chamber of Commerce
| to send delegation of business men
| to Stuttgart, Arkansas, which is the
center Of Arkansas rice belt, and his
ambition was to have these men see
the great possibilities lying at their
very door and to eventually have
them build a rice mill and locate same
! in Poplar Bluff. They never made
| the trip. Fifteen years ago rice was
started in Arkansas by Mr.. Fuller.
| He was likewise, called a crank and
i crazy, but today there is 150 900 acres
! in rice in this State and about 5000, =
600 bushels were grown which brought
| $15, ,000,0 900. This gives some idea as
| to what can be done with land that
i was considered worthless. 1t is
doubtless it there would be one acre
of rice raised up to this time in Mis-
4 souri, had itnot have been for Begley's
foresighteuness. Not until the past
Il year have the careful and wise ones
4 really appreciated what could be done
with this wonderful crop. At the ex-
pense and sacrifice of this young
| man they are soon TO reap the real
| benefit. This being the case the
editor now feels such young men
should be encouraged instead Of pun
ished.

Within these few months Carl has
been given three promotions and for
some time has been in charge of one
of the most important departments in

The Republican Race for Governor
missouri state Journal J

MISSOURI otdlc JOuIudi.I
1t is interesting to note the pro-
gress being made by Mr.. Hyde in his
campaign for the Republican nomina-
tion for Governor. Mr.. Hyde is a
rampant, outspoken and aggressive
ssirreconcilable" on the Treaty of
Peace. His speeches are filed with
gross insinuations and petty attacks
almost smacking of vulgarity, direct
ed against President Wilson. He is
blatant, vehement and vociferous up
on all subjects, and were he Of just
little greater calibre he even might be
denominated the Hiram johnson OF
Missouri. Above all, he is a prohibit
ZIONIST Of the most radical type. Yet
he makes headway in his fight for the
Republican nomination. He has
strong support, and has even invaded
the Ozarks, in a dastardly attempt to
take away from Editor McJimsey
votes to which the Springfield man,
by the doctrine Of geographical prox-
unity, considers himself entitled.
Missouri Democrats view this en-
tertaining contest with extreme satis-
faction, knowing that neither Hyde
nor McJimsey is fit or worthy to be
Governor OF Missouri. Fully half Of
our satisfaction comes from the
knowledge that the Globe-D Democrat
will experience great anguish II Mr..
Hyde should be nominated. II Hyde
should come under the wire winner,
all the Democrats would need to do
would be to circulate the editorials oi
the Globe Demhcrat on the League
OF Nations, by way of answering
Hyde's speeches on the subject Of the
Treaty. When he touched the SUD-
ject of prohibition, #, forsooth, he
did touch it, all we would need to do
would be to watch the writings Of
