Grand Old Missouri. It bas often been sald that a wall could be built around Missourl and the outside world shut out and all inhabitants would live as well and luxurtously as now, but it remained { tor the State Labor Bureau to prove Li this assertion. i In 1905 the farmers of Missouri, . according to the 1906 report of the i State Labor Bureau, raised more \ | than enough of all necessities to feed ¥ all inhabitants, and also a large ax variety of commodities which are classed as luxuries. Euough wool is clipped and cotton iM raised to supply all clothing and 1 enough hides and pelts sent to mar- } ket forshoes and all other leather goods. For real cold weather the game of the state annually supplies enough i furs for muffs, gloves ani heavy r wraps with some to spare for rugs and other similar housefurnisbings. The forestry products are sufficient to supply the demand of everything in the timber line, including tar for roofs and wooden ware for the kitch- en. The southwest counties can sup ply enough cottonwood and willow for paper for the printer and all oth- a} ers needing this article. , The supply of coal is almost {nex- haustable and the same may be sald of zinc, iron, lead and other minerals.

St. Petersburg, Nov. 5—Work was suspended at the women’s uni veraity and academies as a mark of sympathy with two women students who were hanged «at Cronstad’ for complicity in the conspiracy, Octo- ber 18, to blow up the building where the courtmartial trying the mutiny cases was sitting, {a revenge for the execution of the death sen- tence on mutineers.

L. Haghes etically certain. i “Mr. Hughes will get 150,000 or more above the Bronx,” said Mr. Woodruff. “Mr, Hearst cannot get More than 50,000 plurality in’ the greater city, according to the compu- tation of his own ma s, and in my opinion the greater will come close to giving Mr. Hughes a plurality, if it does not give that, Mr. Hughes will carry Brooklyn, Queenstown and Richmon, Suffolk and N, uw coun- ties ought to give a plurality big enough to give Lond Island to Mr. Hughes by nearly 75.000. I would not be at all surprised if Mr. Hughes got 250,000 above the Bronx, “Many things combined point to Mr. Hearst's defeat. The McCarren move in Brooklyn, the Osborn move in Albany; the MceCarren-Croker cablegrams, the Root speech at Utica, the Rock incident in this city—all are indicative of a sentiment opposed to Hearst.” A letter signed by W. R. Hearst calling on the watchers of the polls throughout the state to watch the vot- ing and make the victory certain was issued by Max Ihmsen, manager of the independence league campaign, Mon- day. It has been sent to watchers of Mr. Hearst’s interests throughout the state. The managers of both the republi- can and democratic campaigns agree that the democrats are to make gains over their present representation in Congress. Both are also agreed as to the states where these gains are to come from, and both are directing the energies of the closing hours of the campaign to these hattle fields. In New York, where the state cam- paign has eclipsed all else, the vote for congressmen will be disturbed by local conditions to such an extent that the returns Tuesday night will furnish Derhaps the most interesting reading for those at the headquarters of both congressional committees. A landslide for either candidate for governor would carry with it unexpected re- Bults as to the congressional ticket, It is conceded, on a normal basis, that the democrats will make gains in this state. Pennsylvania furnishes another in- teresting situation with the governor ship fight between Lewis Emry, demo crat, and Lincoln party condidates, and former Mayor Stuart, of Philadel- phia, republican nominee, Many re- publican and democratic heavyweights have been sent into the western part of the state and the campaigning has been lively. Representative Dalzell of Pittsburg is having opposition which sometime ago assumed serious proportions in — The Man Beneath—it will be rrady te go very soon now, EXPECT DEMOGRATIG GAIN of the house, is making a race for the Senatorship against Governor Varda- man, Tennessee furnishes interest because of the governorship fight be- tween H. Clay Evans, republican, and Representative M. R. Patterson, dem- ocrat. The republicans in the state have hopes of electing more than the two members to congress they now have, The districts where Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, has made a fight, are also points of interest. The labor leader paid his compliments last to Represen- tative Mudd of Maryland and demo- crats predict the defeat of Mr, Mudd, In Ohio, Representatives James Ken ned, representing the old McKinley district has received a eall from Mr. Gompers, who supported John. C. Welty, the democratic nominee. The democrats, now holding but one dis- trict in Ohio, are making vigorous con- tests in a half dozen others, Mr. Gompers has been also heard from in the fight in Chicago, where the republicans now have all ten of the congressional districts. Both sides agree that this solid delegation wil: be broken into and that Representa- tive Rainey, now the only democrat from Illinois in the house, will have company, In Idaho the republicans raised the issue of “law and order” in support of the state’s prosecution of officers of the Miners’ Federation for complie- ity in the murder of former Governor Steunenberg, while Senator Dubois who is leading the democratic fight, declares Mormonism is the issue. In Utah the Morman church is said to be supporting the republican nomi- nee for congress. W, D, Haywood, one of the Miners’ Federation officials, now a prisoner in Idaho, is the Social- ist party candidate. for governor of Colorado. In Massachusetts, the governorship fight eclipses all else. Curtis Guild, at, republican, is opposed by John B, Moran, nominated by the democrats, prohibitionists and Independence league. Summed up, the states in which both sides seem agreed that demo- cratic gains may be made are New York. New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and Maryland. Expect Full Vote in Kansas, Topeka, Kan, Nov. 5.—It was as- serted by the organizers of the differ- ent political parties Monday that al- most a full vote will be gotton to the polis. Members of the legislature which will select a United States sen- ator are to be chosen. The most spir- ited fight is being waged upon Gov. E. W. Hoch and the republican nom- inees for railway commissioners, Chairman Crummer, of the repub- lican committee, predicts the election of Hoch by 47,000. Mr. Ryan of the democrats, says W. A. Harris, for gov- ernor, by 30,000. Applicati jo Sell Devlin Property.

ORGANIZED METHODS OF CORRUPTION District Attorney Moran of Boston so Informs W. T. Jerome of New York and Asks That the Evidence be Secured and Forwarded to Him at Once, Boston, Nov, 5.—District Attorney John B, Moran sent a letter to is- trict Attorney William T. Jerome of New York Sunday in which he stat- ed that he was informed by State Senator A. D. Hughes of Michigan that there is in the possession of Col- lier’s Weekly evidence in the form of criginal documents, letters, telegrams and secret codes which tend to show that an organized method of legisla tive corruption is practiced by the so-called tobacco trust throughout the country, The letter follows: “I am creditably informed by one A. D. Hughes, formerly a state senator of Michigan that there is in the pos: session of the proprietors of a publi: cation by name Collier's Weekly, having its principal places of business in New York city, evidence in the form of original documents, letters, tele. grams, secret codes and the transla tion thereof, some copies of which 1 now have and which I append here with for the purpose of identification which tends to show an organized systematic and general method of leg: islative corruption practiced by the so-called tobacco trust throughout the country. I am informed that some of the documents, copies of which I dc not have, tend to show that several bills affecting the interest of the said tobacco trust were defeated at the capital of this commonwealth at the fast session of our general court (Mas- sachusetts legislature) by practices which are a part of this systematic HEB Fixing up Bad Places. QW The West Point road commission- ers are having some work done on some of the bad holes in our roads. Bridges and culverts are being re paired and low places in the roads are being graded up and ditched. The work, however, ls not as com- plete as it should be. It may be that the road fund is shy. There are sev eral places that are only receiving & “kick and ‘@ promise,” so to speak and it will onlp be a question of time until the work will have to be done over. Io several places where work has been done a ditch in the middle of the road leads to the new grading and after a few storms It will be cut out.

Mary Grace Quackenbos was appointed special assistant United States dis trict attorney by Henry L. Stimson, United States attorney. Mrs. Quack- enbos {s the firet woman who has attained so important a position fn the legal profession. Her energy and thoroughness in investigating peon- age cases in the lumber and turpen- tine camps of the South as the rep- resentative of the “People’s law firm” brought to her the recognition of the United States district attorney: Mrs Quackenbos’s rise in the pro- fession has been remarkable. Ad- mitted to the bar in July, 1904, she has in two years figured in several celebrated cases Port Arthur Hero a Traitor. St. Petersburg, Nov. 5.—The eu preme military court has confirmed the sentence imposed on Captain Bolgakoff of three and a half years imprisonment ina fortress for en- gaging in revolutionary agitation among the Russian prisonere in Japan. Bolgakoff was one of the defanders of Port Arthur and was decorated with the St. George’s cross and presented with a golden eword for bravery. The sentence impoeed on twenty- three peasunts of the Baltic prov- inces who organized the attacks on soldiers at Talsen in December last have also been confirmed by the eu- preme military court. Eight of them will be shot and one will be sentenced to imprisonment for life. scheme. I am informed that proprie tors of the sald Collier’s Weekly have purchased the evidence for a large sum of money under a contract to pub- lish the same not later than ten weeks after the first day of August; that the last day for publishing the same has expired; that the said Collier's weekly has refused to publish the same according to the contract. ‘T am further informed that Col lier"’s Weekly is delaying publication of this evidence in violation of its contract, until after election lest it should have an injurious effect upon republican candidates on election day. “Therefore I respectfully request you to obtain the same evidence and transmit to me forthwith, in order that I may begin an immediate in- ouiry to such acts occurring within my jurisdiction as may be disclosed by an examination of the said docu- ments.” In making public the letter, Mr. Moran also gave to the press conles of many letters, telegrams and codes, one letter heing from Hughes. Hushes claims that he bought a fae. tory in Marion, Ind., last April from Former Senator O. A. Baker and in the factory Mr, Hughes found a desk which he asserts was full of corres: pondence and documents revealing certain transactions with the Amert- can Tobacco company. Hughes states in his letter that he endeavored to interest President Roosevelt and Governor Hanlv of In- diana, but was unsuccessful. He then sold the documents to Collier's under contract to be published October 9 last. Ready For the President. New York, Nov. 5.—Alternations on board the battle ship Louislana, which {s to take President and Mrs, Roosevelt to Panama, are nearing completion. Yesterday the sailors began coaling ship and 750 tons were put away before dark. Anoth- er 750 tons will be stowed and then the ship will be scrubbed and holy- stoned fore and aft. For the use of the President an electric launch specially fitted will be hoisted on board the Louisiana just before it sails for Hampton Roads. Interest in Missouri Election, St. Louis, Nov. 5.—Reports from various points in Missouri indicate unusual activity to secure a full vote Tuesday. There is scarcely a town of any size that has not been visited by prominent political speakers of both the republican and democratic parties and fair weather prevailing it 1s quite probable that Missouri will poll a heavy vote. The republican claim of carrying St, Louis is not largely contested but the democrats feel equally sure of the state. Poor From Cigarettes. New York, Nov. 5.—It was told of Robert Stokes of 103 Ten Eyck street, Williamsburg, in the Manhat- tan Avenue Police Court, where he was arranged ona charge of aban- donment, that he even took his baby’s clothes and sold them to get money to buy cigarettes. Stokes’ wife offered a handful of pawn tickets representing clothing Sa RL and bedding in evidence.
