"WET" AND DRY"
REPUBLICAN WRANGLE
(By A. T. Edmonston.)

Jefferson City, Mo-, Dec. 24.-With
fully $4,000 "gops" of st. Louis, Kan
sas City and other very clamp" Mis-
souri, cities demanding that the next
Republican candidate for Governor be
as wet as the Atlantic Ocean," and
175,OO0 members of the same turbulent
factionally divided party, dwelling and
voting in rural Missouri, announcing
that their chief State banner carrie,
must be as dry as the Sahara desert,
it is daily becoming more and more
plain which element is going to clean
up on primary day of August, 1920.
From st. Louis camps the information
that the lineup there for +. +. e. Nc
Jimsey, the Springfield editor, has be-
come more solid since the discovery
was made there few days ago that
the former Missouri Progressive Par
ty leader and Roosevelt booster, Ar
thur M. Hyde, materially helped two
or three years back to put Trenton, in
Grundy county, his home city, in the
prohibition column, thereby ever since
making that burg as dry as the Sa-
hara desert. The few wet "gop"
leaders Of the big John Barleycorn
Oasis on the Mississippi, few miles
south Of the mouth of the Missouri
river, VINO were favorably inclined to-
wards Hyde, until the discovery came
that he had, at one time, been an ac-
tive and aggressive dry worker and
still, more or less, leaned that way,
then deserted his cause and are now
the loudest and most enthusiastic
hn I'D
McJimsey, has in st. Louis.
The announcement of the st. Louis
disciples of Bacchus that Hyde will
never do because of his dry activities
in the past has wonderfully strength
ened his candidacy in rural Missouri
among the heavy predominating pro-
hibition Republicans, this mighty arm
now standing ready to flock to his
standard if he will only agree to en-
tirely cut loose from the "wet cops"
of Kansas City and elsewhere and
publicly and loudly proclaim that he
is against the liquor interests of Mis-
souri,, first, last and all the time.
While many "moist" cops admit such
a move would insure Hyde the Re-
publican nomination without any
doubt, at the August primary, yet
such apostles declare it would mean
that he would lose St. Louis by $4,000
next November, not considering the
awful trimming the dripping" Re-
publicans Of Kansas City, st. Joseph,
Joplin, Springfield, Hannibal, Lexing-
ton, Jefferson City, Sedalia, st.
Charles, Cape Girardeau and Moberly
would give him. Much of this infor-
mation was impaired to Hyde last
week when he visited st. Louis, JEFF
ferson City and other liberal Missouri
cities seeking support.
Strange as it may seem to be Hyde
still is the first choice of a majority

GERMAN PACIFIST URGES
NATIONS OF WORLD TO
SWEAR NEVER AGAIN

"In the memory of all that has hap
pened, let us raise our hands spiritu-
ally in the dark of Christmas night, in
every land, toward the starry heavens
and swear never again."
Prof. Walter Smuecking, Germany's
leading pacifst and former member
of the German peace delegation, sent
this Christmas message to the people
of the United States today. He said:
"There is no home in Germany in
which the family circle is uniform by
death. Oh, could one this Christmas
evening adorn the graves of the dead!
an the ages of history humanity
erected pyramids over the vaults of
its dead in honor of their memory.
But where are the dead of this war
Unburied, their bodies putrefy over
miles Of war-torn wastes. No flower
blooms over their graves. There are
no linden trees near them, where the
lark in spring may sing its songs.
"Instead, Throughout Europe turks
the specter of hunger, need and want,
grinning at the grieving populace
through the door and window.
"Will we succeed after all these
years of war in again making the
world sound? Can we restore these
dwarfed children, crippled through
years of under nourishment
"This is a Christmas after four
years of war-and one year of the
armistice. Individual men may not
have had SO much guilt therein as
peoples. They did not overcome the
power of hate. But now we must bat
tie against the world hatred. We
must link up what is common in all
the world. Doesn't the French, Bri-
fish or American mother feel the
same toward her children as the Ger
man mother? When good is common
to all of US, why should we hate?
"Let us unite to forget all we have
done wrongfully to one another.
"Let us educate our children in the
thought that right stands higher than
might, and that right must rule be-
tween nations.
"All wrong done Belgium and
France must be rectified and the
wrong that has been written into the
Versailles treaty must be made right,
"Let US work together for a great
League of Nations, which will be a
refuge of peace in a community OF
labor. In the memory of all that has
happened, let US raise our hands spir-
itually in the dark of this Christmas
night, in every land, toward the star
ry heavens and swear never again.

UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI
LIVE STOCK SHOW


An exhibition of the University
live stock will be made in the live
stock pavilion of the University of
Missouri College of Agriculture on
Wednesday at 1890 a. m. of Farm
ers' Week, January 1928. This exhi-
bition has come to be an interesting
and significant part Of the Farmers
Week program. 1t furnishes an op-
portunity for visitors to see the live
stock owned by the University and to
have the facts regarding its produc-
ton placed before them. The live
stock equipment of the University
consists largely of animals which
have been bred on the University
farm and the equipment contains many
striking examples of what good ami
mails which breed regularly will do in
the way of profitable production.

other gubernatorial aspirant the pow
erful "wet COP" machine of st. Louis
may put over, and with it carry the
entire national and state ticket down
to a defeat worse than the Waterloo
Of 1912, when all Democratic state
nominees swept Missouri by an av-
erage plurality of $4,000
Scheme to Split Cop" Dry Vote.
The possible entry of former Lieu
tenant Governor John C. Mckinley
of Unionville, Putnam county, into
the race for the Republican nomina-
ton for United States Senator, is
looked upon with suspicion by the ad-
herents and hackers of Senator Sell
don P. Spencer. Mckinley, who was
Lieutenant Governor during the four
years when Herbert S. Hadley was
Missouri's Chief Executive, is, like
Hyde, as dry as the Sahara desert,
and few years ago took an active
part in making Unionville and Put
nam county State prohibition strong
holds. Ever since, his friends say,
he has ardently espoused the dry
cause.
Friends of Senator Spencer are as
serting that Republican vets are, in
reality, behind the move to persuade
Mckinley to get into the senatorial
race, the intention being to split the
dry Republican vote of Missouri be-
tween him and Senator Spencer so
that the John Barleycorn forces of
the State can easily give the nominal
ton to any candidate they finally get
in back of. The "gop" leaders who
are holding out the lure to Mckinley
to enter the contest, it is stated, are
Ego betweens" for the wet party sheiks
of St. Louis and other Missouri cities
where the republican liquor element
is strong. 1t is admitted that McKin-
ley, innocently, is of the opinion that
the party men who are urging him 10
enter the "gop" senatorial derby, are
sincere and conscientious and have
nothing but the good of republican
party at heart. When he learns diff
ferently, it is said, Mckinley will en-
phatically refuse to run against Sen
ator Spencer.
The pro-German "gops" of St. LOU
is city and county and Gasconade,
Franklin, st. Charles, Warren, Usage,
Cole, Ste. Genevieve, Perry and Jeff
erson counties, are not rallyng to
the support of the corporation lawyer,
James L. Minis, as much as those
who are urging him to make the run
against Senator Spencer, desire. The
reason for this lack of Minis enthu-
siasm and support in counties where
he must get his votes if he intends to
defeat Senator Spencer, it is avered,
is that pro-German republicans have
discovered that he is too much of a
loyal and patriotic American to be
successfully used in the next United
States Senate to help restore Germ
any to the exalted position that coun-
try held before the allies humbled and
brought the Kaiser to the point Of
abdicating and taking refuge in
neutral country. This Kaiser-wor-
Shipping wing of the Republican party
is anxious to have someone make the
race for the "gop" nomination car
rying a cognomen rhyming with and
as euphonious as "Hosenbien," or
some other handle equally as leu
tonic.

 and it required no great degree of selling pressure to effect additional l impairment of quoted values, except among pooled issues.
 Some substantial rallies occurred in the latter dealings, particularly in oils, ! equipments and shippinSs. but these resulted more from short covering | than actual demand. The only sisni- ficant feature of the later rebound lay
 in the fact that 1t was accomplished
 in the face of a ten per cent rate for call loans. as against the early quota

 Developments bearing upon the mar ket were of the same confusing char acter that have accompanied the trade of the past fortnight. Industrial pro duction continued to be retarded Dy railroad congestion and further agita- ton against high commodity costs.
 The oil industry almost seemed exempt from disturbing conditions al though Mexican issues were subject. ed to wide fluctuations by news from across the border. This was offset, however, by yet another advance. of prices for crude and refined products.
 Steels and equipments made little headway despite further circumstan- tial reports of merger and prospective contracts for railroad supplies.

 gain any strength and was weak and delicate practically all his life He seemed to have a very weak stomach It just looekd like he couldn't eat anything and digest it like other child ren.
 He had no appetite at all and what little he did eat seemed to sour on his
 stomach. Sometimes his heart would
 palpitate terribly and he would get so
 dizzy he could hardly walk and as |
 stood and looked at him l thought he
 would surely fall over He would
 have bad headaches and was nervous and could never sleep we'll al night. At school he was never able to keep up his work and he had to stay out a great deal on account of poor health 'I had heard so much about Tanlec
 decided to try it and see if it
 wouldn't help him. Well, you just
 cant imagine how oyerjoyed I was
 when he began to improve, l kept right on giving him the medicine until now it is hard fer me to believe he is the same child His health is better than ever before in his life and he is bright and playful all the time and ne enjoys going out and playing wiIh other boys He has q splendid aDpe- tite and l let him eat anything he wants He is not the least bit ner- vous any more and is asleep as soon as he goes to bed. In fact, he is per fecuy well in every way.
 After seeing what Tanlac did for him ! began taking it myself as l have been suffering from stomach trouble headaches and dizziness for five years. Since taking this grand medi-
