Number 3

The voters of Missouri, when they
go to their polling places November
z, will receive from the judges of
election, in addition to a blanket
ballot containing the names of the
candidates to be voted for, consti-
tutional ballot containing nineteen
proposals, copy of which is published
in The Missouri Herald.
These include three constitutional
amendments submitted by the Leg
islature, two proposed laws submit
ted by initiative petition and four
teen laws passed by the Legislature
and submitted by referendum petit
tions to the people.
If majority of the voters ap-
prove these propositions they become
effective. otherwise they are dead.
No. 8
This is a good roads proposal.
Missouri has embarked on a great
road-building enterprise. 1t is pro-
posed to expend s6O,OO0,0OO, this de-
rived from the sale of automobile Ii
censes and the registration of car
owners, in the construction of $500
miles of road of gravel construction
and 1900 miles of road of cement or
other high-type construction. Care
full computation discloses that the IL
cense fees upon automobiles will be
more than enough to pay the inter-
est upon the $6O.OOO,0OO in bonds
and retire them when they are due.
The amendment upon the ballot pro-
poses to set aside all money not need
ed for the payment of the bonds
with interest, in the maintenance of
the roads after they are built. The
Question of maintaining the roads is
important Unless provisions are
made for the upkeep of the roads af-
ter they are built, in few years
the State system of roads would be
worn out by traffic and the farmers
and others who use them will be
back in the mud, unless direct taxes
are imposed for the upkeep of the
roads.
Not penny taxes can be added
to anybody's tax bills through sup
port of this road amendment In fact
the amendment is intended to OBJ
viate the necessity for the levy of di-
rect taxes for the maintenance of the
States system of roads. The consti-
tutional amendment authorizing the
issuance of $6O,OOO,OO0 in bonds for

Bob Brooks requests The Missouri
Herald to announce that he has
withdrawn from the race for con-
stable of Hayti township, having
been nominated on the regular
Republican ticket. Bob states that
his reasons for doing this is because
of his time being entirely taken up
with his contracting business in the
line of pump driving and house NOV
ing. which he cannot afford to aban-
don. He also desires to make known
to his Republican friends who SO
literally supported him in the pri-
mary that he appreciates their good
will. Bob wishes them to know that
it was hard for him to make up his
mind not to run for the Office, feel

interests so much at stake, he hopes

his statements about the great ex-presdent made few
weeks when Mr. Brewster seeking the Republican
nomination.
In speech made in ST. Louis July 18th, last before
meeting of the Republican Women's Club of St. Louis Mr.
Brewster is quoted in newspaper reports saying
"Le No. 2.-***I do not mind much being accused

Hyde boasts that less amount of taxes for

Women since the days of Abigail
Adams have demanded education
and advantages for all people. NO
one can ever know what the early
mothers sacrificed in order that
their children might have educat-
ional privileges. What is true of
the early mothers is true today of
the women of America. They want
all the young men and women TO
have the advanta geS OF education.
II the wages are so low that
father cannot support his sons and
daughters, while they are beng
educated, the children must enter
the ranks of the bread winner,
handicapped by lack of training
and stunted in all future develop
ment.
In deciding for or against the
tariff on goods imported into this
country women have but to make
a simple choice of two things. 1t
is whether they are willing to pay
a little more for some articles or
whether they would prefer that
less wages be paid to the workers
of this country. If Europe can
make and sell at a profit a lamp
chimney for four cents and our
lamp chimney manufacturer pays
a man four and one-half cents
Just for blowing. 1t is perfectly
apparent that either the blower
must get less or tariff must be
placed on lamp chimneys of such
an amount that the working man
can have four and one-half cents
and the manufacturer can also be
paid for his outlay.
