Prominent Progressive ° Surrenders. Scores of Republicans and Pro- gressives are dropping into State Democratic Headquarters daily and offering their services to the committee_in_ bringing about the. triumphant re-election of Presi- dent Wilson and putting Colonel Gardner into the executive chair of the State by an overwhelming majority. y Notable among the callers was Perey Stone, a leading St. Louis business nan, who, until 1912, was one of the most active, Re- publicans in St.Louis. He ° es- poused the cause of Colonel Roosevelt when the party split, and was one of the founders of the Progressive party in Missouri, being made a member of the State Committee. “T am here to surrender,’’ said Mr. Stone. ‘‘Not half way, but all the way, for I shall do all in Democratic National and State tickets. I cannot under- stand how any Progressive who was actuated by principle when he left the Republican party can vote for Judge Hughes or endorse the Republican platform of 1916, I shall vote for President Wilson as T believe every lover of his country should do. He has stood the acid test. Colonel Gardner shdt] have my earnest support. He is a business man and will give Missouri a business administra- tion.’” i Weleome, Mr. Stone.

Fred Gard- ner, who gained a clear plurality in the rural districts as well as in his home city, and Judge Lamm, who would have been out of the running had it not been for the ‘‘delivered’’’ vote in St. Louis, there can be no room what- ever for Democrats to argue, and very little for Independent Re- publicans,’’ says the Charleston Enterprise-Courier. It may be added that the St. Louis vote was ‘delivered’? by Otto Stifel. ““T now repeat that T shall nev- er be a_ candidate -for office | again,’ says Col. Gardner, ‘My ambition will be to serve all the; state so efficiently and with such | good results that alk the people will regret when my term < pires.”’ ‘This is refreshing,’’ is the comment of the Mexico Intel- ligencer.

The Pleasant Gap Fair was held ‘Wednesday and Thursday of last week and was attended by big crowds on hoth days. The first day the attendance was about 500 and the second day’s attendance was estimated to be nearly 900. The stock exhibit was good and the classes were well filled. The extreme drouth of the last month cut the agricultural and fruit displays a little short, but some good samples of corn and other produce were on display. ~The managers of the fair deserve great credit for the very credit- able fair when the conditions were not of the best.
