STEPHEN N. WILSON.


In this issue will be found AMI
nouncement of the candidacy of
Judge Stephen N. Wilson Of the
Probate Court for the judgship
Of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, !
embracing Lafayette and Saline
counties. 1t is a worthy ambi-
tion Of a worthy man of the law.
This office in this district, which
has varied much in the terrific
ry embraced during the hundred
years of Missouri statehood, has
been filled by a long line Of men
Of sturdy character and legal
acumen, commanding the re-
spect of the people, deserving
their affection, and, as much by
simplicity and rectitude of char
acter as by the sanctions Of au-
thority, maintaing the import
of the phrase "The Majesty of
the Law" This Office is perhaps
the most important office the
people ever have to fill. 1t is the
starting point Of confidence in
the social organism. In addition
to comprehensive legal training,
it demands seriousness, broad
sympathies, and an understands
ing heart. 1t is not enough for
the judge to be clever and inn
partial referee Of legal duels.
He must in the gravity of his
measured announcements a S
we'll as in the simple majesty of
his character justify the ways
of the Jaw to men.
! This Office, in rural Missouri
at least, has usually been kept
aloof from party politics. The
bar has generally been accord
ed large influence in selection.
J The newspaper has not often Of
fered advice. But surely a news
paper published in a community
in which Judge Wilson's whole
life from boyhood has been
spent may be allowed without
prejudice to testify simply to
his worth and fitness. He is a
hard worker, a good lawyer, a
! good neighbor, good man; and
as such he enjoys in unusual
measure the confidence and af-
fection of his fellows.

School Levy Lost at Higginsville
The school tax levy was de-
feated by six votes at Higgins
vile Tuesday. The Board of Ed
ucation submitted a levy of 95e
in excess of the 4Ot, making a
levy of 75e on the $10O valua-
tion. Heretofore HigginsvilIe
has always voted a S1.00 levy.
Since the levy of 40e viii per-
NIT of only a months school, the
Board met Wednesday and or
dered another election to be held
on Tuesday April 25.
Let's hope that the people Of
Lexington will never let this
happen. Our own Fourth ward
ought to secede and join up
with Higginsville.

Why Not a Lexington Bridge?
The Directors of the Lexing-
ton Chamber of Commerce have
been gratified by the interest
that has been shown in a bridge
across the river at Lexington
stimulated by the picture of the
Boonville Bridge on display in
the windows of the Chamber of
Commerce headquarters. A
number Of persons have gone so
far as to name generous a.
mounts they would be willing to
invest in stock in a bridge for
Lexington, and have requested
that a movement be put on foot
looking toward its construction.
AS test of public interest,
it is requested that the citizens
Of Lexington and vicinity give
their names to the Secretary of
the Chamber Of Commerce indi-
eating the amount they would
be willing to invest in bridge
stock, but merely as an indica-
tion Of sentiment to guide the
directors in any further activi-
ty along this line.
