The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1922-11-03

formly have advocated economical ad-
ministration and limited taxation.
Economy does not mean parsimony,
or the penurious pinching of pennies
to the datrimers Of public efficiency
or the service of the people. Adher-
ence to economical standards. howev-
ar, imposes upon public official the
the public funds, in order that taxa
ton may not become unduly BURDEN
some. On the other hand, the Repub-
lican party always has been extrava-
giant and profligate in expanding the
treasures of the people. and never
has shown the least concern as to the
extent of taxation, if only the funds
may be rovided to carry out the par
TVS plans.
Particularly is this true, both in
federal affairs and in Missouri. Mis-
sourians are familiar with the reck-
lessness of the Hyde administration,
and their pocket books have felt the
sting of the Hyde method of taxation,
which has been endorsed and approx
ed by the Republican party of the
StataF The business of the national
government is farther removed and
contemplation of the practices in
vogue at Washington under the Hard
ing regime is proper, when the people
come to choose their representative
in the National Congress. We have
had lot of delirious rhetoric from
the honorable John Wesley Hill, hired
spellbinder of the Republican Nation
al Committee, but we have had few
facts. What is the fact?
Take the cost of the government
departments, under the Harding ad-
ministration for 1921, three years af-
ter the war, and compare them with
the cost of the same departments I'M
der the Democratic administration of
President Wilson, for 1915, three

in the expenditures of each, for the

JUDGE KOSSUTH C. WEBER
SEEKS REELECTION

Judge Weber is asking for re-elec-
ton as Judge of the Probate Court
He has been extremely courteous and
very considerate and accommodating
toward all of the patrons of the Pro-
bate office, and toward all parties
who have had business in that office.
He has been Jealous in guarding
the interests of all widows and or
phans and creditors, and looks at the
office as second to none in impor-
lance in the county.
The administration of estates has
become a speciality in the law, and
Judge Weber has spent his time dur
ing his tenure of office familiarizing
himself with those laws affecting
codicils, wills, courtesy, dover, es-
cheats, equity, fiduciary debts, titles
to real estate, uses, trusts, perpetui-
ties, ETC., but contends that the es-
sential thing in the Probate office is
honesty, integrity, and impartiality
in the administration of the law.
He has supervised the administra-
ton, during his term of office, of
more than nine hundred estates of
guardianship and administration, and,
while he has had some appeals taken
from his rulings, he has never been
reversed in a single instance.
Attention is here directed to the
handling of cases in the Juvenile
Court during the seven months in
which the Juvenile Law was enforc-
ed in Probate Courts throughout the
State. About fifty cases of delin-
quent and neglected children were
disposed Of during this period, and
many of them were placed in institu-
tons, or in good homes, and their
moral and physical condition mater
tally improved
Judge Weber has had the exper-
fence necessary to assure the public
the same splendid and efficient SER
vice in the future, that he has rem
dered in the past. and is asking for
reelection on his record achieved,
and on his ability to safeguard the
property rights and interests of the
people in this county. (advt.)

WASTING PUBLIC FUNDS

Democratic party. laid down cardinal
principles, which he said shehId be
