er feature that was nauseating TO the
people of Missouri was to see Dutch
Fromme sitting in a box in the grand
stand with two women, while many
hunted for the best seats they could
find and for which they were forced
to pay in addition to the $15O,OOO of
their money, appropriated for the
event. Dutch Fromme went in and
out Of the fair grounds and grand
stand box without moIestation for he
had pass admitting him every
place.
Governor Hyde, too. was there
with the passes. Going to the grand I
stand on his pass he took along a
number of Others including some
army officers. When asked for their
tickets the governor replied, they
were ahis attendants"
More Missouri taxpayers followed
along and paid the regular price Of
admission.
The tax payers were able to show
their resentment at the traatnent
accorded them each night at the con-
clusion Of the display Of fireworks
when the pictures Of Governor Hyde
and Gear Lloyd we're shown during
death silence. This must have
been humiliating to the states self

.MISSOURIANS ARE DISGUSTED
AT MANNER IN WHICH STATE
CENTENNIAL is CONDUCTED


Sedalia, Mo-, August 20. Person
who attended the state centennia
and fair here last week are disgust
ed with the action of Lieutenan
Governor Hiram Lloyd who struttet
about the grounds as though he wer'
master of all his eyes surveyed.
Lieutenant Governor Lloyd com
pletely ignored members of the stat
fair board who have been success
fully managing the fair for years ant
took the whole matter in charge as .
starter for his campaign for Cover
nor in 1924.
"Czar" Lloyd seemed to think that
he was presiding over the republi-
can senate caucus and could whip
things over in his own way without
interference and he did, until Satur-
day, when President A. c.. Dinge Of
the state fair board, accosted him
in front of the administration build
ing and told @Czar" Lloyd when,
where and how he would get off dur
ing the next week S
Hot words were spoken by Dingle
with the result that the Gar took q
back seat and was coHtent with act
ing as superintendent of admissions
during the past week.
Missouri taxpayers who will fur
nish the $150,OO0 show pulled off by
Lloyd were gouged on every side
They were charged admissions to the
grounds and the grandstand while
personal and political friends of the
politically ambitious Czar were per-
mitted to walk through the gate by
merely signing their name because
of cardboard pass which had been
furnished them by the "Sho Gun Of
Ka-choo."
Missouri farmers and business and
professional men who drove to INC
big show in motor cars were forced
to park their cars on the outside and
pay another admission fee in the
event they desired to return to the
cars during the day while the favoreJ
friends, OF Big Cheese Lloyd drove
back and forth through the gates al
will because the signature of ths
Czar was placed on the Windshield
that those who run may read.
In addition to President Dinglt
Gar Lloyds arbitrary management
of the states big show caused words
with many others including Repre-
sentative S. 1, Highleyman, repnbli-
can, Pettis County, and DIR. F. R
Morley, of Sedalia.
Both Of these Sedalians went after

PEACE QUESTION FEELING
 UNCERTAIN IN IRELAND

Dublin, Aug 21--Ireland has passed through a week of decided contrasts in feeling on the peace question. and still is uncertain as to where the peace dis cussions are leading. This period, which has witnessed the historic initial open meetings of the Dali Eireann, has sup piled alternately explosions of optimism and intervals of something closely akin to hopelessness. But on the eve of am other week the situation in the peace ne- Eotistions remains on the surface appar- entiy just about where it was
 Some close observers Of the situation pointed out today that the Sim Feiners now seldom were using the term "repub- leans" 10 describe themselves, while the Irish Bulletin. their organ, in Saturdays issue, confined itself to arguing that the British terms did not constitute complete dominion status such as Canada and other d6minions enjoy and that therefore they were not acceptable.
 The attitude of Ulster is being closely watched it being strongly believed in many quarters here that by conceding something Ulster could do much toward The bringing about of an agreement. The 1ortherners, however, ss evidenced by their press utterances and in reports reaching here from Belfast, appear to have grown ever stiffer in their attitude since erading the reports of the Dali EiresHn ministers on economic questions and the speeches of the Dali cabinet and members of the parliament

Washington, Aug. 21-The United States has informed the government of Panama that as friendly mediator be- tween Panama and Costa Rica in their boundary dispute, it does not feel im- pelled to suggest that Costa Rica delay longer taking Jurisdiction over territory now occupied by Panama and which was sdiudge to belong to Costa Rica ty the terms of tne Loubet award.
 The position of this government was stated in rete transmitted by secretary Hughes to the government of Panama on Angst IS and made public today by the state department in the following state ment:
 The department of state. under date of August IS. 1921. instructed the Am ericau minister Et Panama to communic- ste note to the government of Panama. of which toe following is the text:
 The government of the United States has received the note addressed hy the government of Panama on August S to the American minister in Panama, replying to the communication handed by the minister on August 2, 10 the government of Panama, by instruc- lion of the government of the United States. in which were transmitted the requests of the government of Costa lea, relating to the tNundary dispute between the republics of Panama and Costa Rica.
 After the most careful consideration ot tke statements contained in the note of rle government of Panama above re- ferred 10 this government has reached the conc usion that the arguments ad- vanced in this communication nave al- ready been fully answered in previous notes adressed by the government of the United States to the government of Pan ana is greatly regretted that 1t has proved to be impossible for the govern ments of Panama and Costa Rica to come to a direct agreement for the de- limitation of that portion of the bound Rry between the two republics laid down by the White award. n view of the fact that the government of Panana appears unwilling 10 carry out this deimitation In tle manner provided in the Porras- Anderson convention. and inasmuch as a reasonable time mentioned in the note of this government dated May 2. 1921, for the reaching of an agreement as Ito the manner of carrying out this delimita- tion, has already been afforded there should seem to be no reason why tne government of the United States should ss the friendly mediator between the two Covernments. or by virtue of its special relations to the government of Panama
