PUT A MUZZLE ON SHUPP
one OF His Own Organs Gives the
SANITY Rcformcr Heavy
Dig.

The head Of the Antl-Saloon League
in Missouri, W. c. Shupp, who flaunts
the prefix "Eev." to his name, has
become a nuisance that should be
abated. He is robody, has done moth
ing and holds nc position in the COM
munity that entities him to any con-
sideration, certainly not to the posi-
tion he attempts to arrogate to him
self as the dictator OF appointments
under the national prohibition law.
Shupp is a blathorskite and should be
muzzled. Louis y. Aloe, president Of
the Board of Aldermen. is entirely
eight in taking This position regarding
him. Mr.. Aloe says it is known
fact that Shdpp has assumed 10 make
recommendation for appointments.
and that tho men he has selected for
certain positions and recommended
to the Appointing power at Washing
ton have not the recommendation or
support of anybody but Shupp and
certain individuals who seem TO be
subservient, in this particular, to
Shupp.
Since shupp prctends to be a Re-
publican, or ae least to exercise power
and authority under a Republican
regime, 1t is certainly up to the party
organization in the state TO make
Shupp understand who and what he
really is, so far as the party and it's
organization are concerned. Shupp
should be formally and authoritative
ly repudiated. This reputation should
be made as emphatic and as uneduiv-
ocal as is possible. Mr.. Shupp is not
entitled to any consideration, either
at Washington or in the state. Fur
ther than that, every man who lines
up with Shupp In his sham and false
pretenses, either as a political side
partner or as al applicant for office
by virtue Of SLupp recommendation
should also be Tepudiated and brand
ed for just what he is politically. They
are not Republicans or they would
pot line up with shupp. They are not
worthy OF Consideration as applicants
for positions as Republicans or they
would not go to shupp for recon-
mendation. Tie Republican party
must repudiat shupp. lie is no
body. Put mu2zie on him and abate
him as nuIsancc.-st. Louis (Rep.)

The statement. oft repeated I'm this
section Of the STATE, to the effect that
the St. Joseph News-Prcss is "Inde-
pendent twertv-oue months out Of
each two years and the other three
months Republican no longer tells the
complete story. II makes a very poor
pretension Of being independent at all
any mores. ,sinco for considerable time
before the ast general election it has
been difficult to recognize It as any
thing but al Republican paper and
now, ten months before the next cleo
tlon, 1t IA making predictions Of Re-
publican 7suceesses next fall. Chief
among these Is an editorial recently in
which it Suggests Republican inroads
in the "Solid South" saying, "Deyel-
opment OF the Muscle Shoals project
in Alabama may go far towards re-
deeming that state from a blind, un-
thinking PARTY allegiance" Writing
on another subject this same paper
| states that while in some sections
farmers have prospered. as a whole
they have barely made living during
the last half dozen years" There are
newspapers that seemingly take for
granted that anything they tell the
Missouri farmer no will believe. For
instance. that taxes are no higher,
etc. The farmer knows that taxes are
higher for they are paying more taxes;
and they know that there has been a
time, and that time within the last
half dozen years when they were re-
ceiying a fair profit for their products
Any effort TO make them believe the
opposite is a reflection on their in
telligenee,-Worth County Times.

ing around 7912, at which price they
yield about 1O.4 per cent to maturity.
There are two other issues Of 5 per
cent bonds, due in 1927, but they are
subject to the first mortgage. We
think that even the first mortgage 5.
are decidedly speculative. The Sea-
board Air Line 6s might be suitable for
a business man who can afford to take
some risk, but we do not recommend
them for investment. The Seine bonds
are fair investment.
