WILDER'S EX TIONS ARE POTENT F IN HIS CANDIDACY. and warehouse COMMISSION WILDER'S EXPERIENCE AND POTENT FACTORS TO BE INDIDACY. Railroad and warehouse COMMISSIONERS WILLIAM W. WILDER'S EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS ARE POTENT FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED IN HIS CANDIDACY. The office of Railroad and Warehouse commissioner, though not generally considered an important one, is nevertheless, a very important office. Our law provides that three men shall be elected to this office, and their terms expire at different times. The persei incumbents of that office are Hon. John A. Knott, Hon. H. A. Oglesby, democrats, and Hon. Frank A. Wrightman; republican. The term of Mr. Knott will expire ASK YOUR FRI --- VOL VI SEDALIA, MO., MONDX, AUGUST 3, 1908. was not created for the purpose of benefitting the railroad company but rather for the purpose of benelitting the people, by guarding their interest of railroad companies. Merchants, farmers, manufacturers and shippers of live stock and produce are the regular customers of railroads, and to protect their rights and compel the railroads to comply with the law, this office was created. It will readily be seen that too many representatives of railroads in this office will not result in any benefit to the people of the state. At the state primary on August 4th, the republicans will have three candidates for this office, namely Amos L. Coleman, H. H. Washburn and William W. Wilder. Without attempting or intending to say anything disparaging of the claims of the other two candidates, there can be but one opinion among all loyal and tar signed republicans, and that is that Mr. Wilder should be nominated. Mr. Wilder has served the people of Missouri as State Auditor for nearly four years, and the record he has made has been a credit to himself, to the republican party and to the state at large. He has sacredly guarded the interests of the people, and it may truthfully be said that Missouri ever had a more careful, honest and earnest official in the Auditor's office, nor in any other department of our state government. Whenever there was a doubt as to the legality of the payment of money, Mr. Wilder has always given to the state the benefit of the doubt, and refused payment, and in numerous cases the supreme court has decided that Mr. Wilder's ruling and his interpretation of the law was correct. In settlement with the state and county officers, Mr. Wilder and his excellent corps of assistants have shown their thorough acquaintance with the statutes of the state and also an earnest desire to do only what was right. Mr. Wilder showed his thorough knowledge of the state's finances when he sent his warning to the last legislature and the governor, that if they passed all the appropriations committee, that the state's income for this biennial period would be over-appropriated more than a million and a quarter dollars, and the state would not be able to meet the demands made upon her treasury, all of which predictions have now actually come true. As a member of the State Board of equalization, Mr. Wilder has been a friend of the people, and at the same time fair and honorable in his official dealings with corporations. Time will not permit of the detailed statement of all that he has done and done so satisfactorily that the republican party was unanimous for his retention as state auditor. But for business reasons, Mr. Wilder was compelled to decline the nomination for that office. At the urgent request of his friends, Mr. Wilder has consented to make the race for the nomination for Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner, au office to which he is specially fitted, by reason of his common sense, integrity and wide experience in both private and state affairs. Having made such a record for efficiency and honesty as state Auditor, having helped the party to victory in 1904, and having as an individual, always brought credit to the party, the party owes it to itself to nominate Mr. Wilder for Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner. The nomination of Mr. Wilder to this office means an endorsement of his administration as state auditor, which is something the party should not overlook at this important time. The republican voters of this county and of the state will certainly make no mistake in voting for William W. Wilder, an illustrious type of the German American citizenship of this great state, for Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner on August 4th. —Daily Post We AE Believing as we do that a news paper should take a positive and open position on men and measures. we have no hesitancy in stating where we stand in the local primary.

Entered at the Sedalia Post Office as Second class matter, Poor Political Practice. In our judgement many of our republicans, who are aspirants for positions on the township county, state and national tickets, use poor political methods. Most of them discriminate between their own party and some will throw patronage to democratic or independent periodicals, betog caring for their own press. After nominations are made, who is to bear the burden of the campaign? Heretofore it has fallen to the partisan press to fight partisan battles. If the partisan press is to fight partisan battles after the nominations are made, it seems reasonably just that they should share in the distribution of the "sinews of war" before the primary. If Certain Candidates feel that they can be elected, without the aid of every republican influence within the party, all is well. As we see it, at present, Missonrians will have to fight unitedly, persistently and courageously to win this fall. Class papers and race journals must be given the same consideration in proportion to what they can do, as is given to the local or Metropolitan Dalies. A German Republican paper will reach and influence more Germans than any periodical published in the territory of its circulation. This is true of a Negro or Irish newspaper. These are facts, so firmly established, that they are in controvertible. In Missouri the Republicans can not hope to win unless they have the support of 90 per cent of the Negro vote and 75 per cent of the German vote.

From the Golden City Register. More than twenty years ago, when he was County Clerk of Wright county, the writer became a pointed with Argas Cox, now Judge of the Eighteenth Circuit, and a candidate for the Republican nomination for Supreme Judge at the August primary election. We do not speak in disparagement of other gentlemen's candidacy for that office when we say that Judge Cox is the only logical candidate in the field. His opponents for the nomination are gentlemen of the highest standing in ever particular, but Judge Cox's experience on the pence has peculiarly fitted him as a member of the higher tribunal. For more than fifteen years Judge Cox has occupied the bench of the eighteenth District with the dignity that becomes a real Judge, and his services has inspired a greater respect for law on the part of the people in his district. His decisions have been sound and stood the test of all the higher courts. As a lawyer and a Judge no man in the State stands higher than Judge Cox. Having lived in the eighteenth District for many years the writer is familiar with the work of Judge Cox as a Judge and as a private citizen and can truthfully say that his honor is unassailable and that his public and private life is an open book standing out in bold relief, showing one of the most noble characters to be found within the confines of the State. The nomination of Judge Cox by the Republican party would be no mistake, but would assure his election which would be a big victory for the people of Missouri. David Roberts For Assessor David Roberts, one of our near neighbors and friends is a candidate for the nomination for asses sor on the Republican ticket, subject to the action of the Primary of August Fourth. We have known Mr. Roberts for several years and have found him to be an honorable man, trust worthy and square. His business brings him in close touch with the Negroes of the County and they all respect him for his impartiality and politeness. The republicans will have a strong man on the ticket, if they will stand forth and nominate him. He is our choice for this nomination. We urge our friends to help us secure his nomination. W. H.

Great cities are attractive in gay moors and "the metropolis on the lake" is never merrier than when disporting itself in this wonderful park. The Roman hippodrome cannot be compared to this great park, either in magnitude, fabulous investment or attendance. Frequently 250,000 men, women and children are within the enclosure of the theater after one enters the white masonry of the gates and till he emerges, he is my master, and I lead everywhere to turreted pavilions, circuses, theaters, ballets, "Streets of Calao," ball parks, casinos, water parks, and train stations, train railways, "Wild West Shows," aerial coasters, menageries, Japanese pagodas and air concerts by the world's fin-hands. Riverview is a festival city, with its chimes of bells, peals of organs, roar of rains, cooling swish of waters, dashing of foaming lakes, boat whistles, stringed instruments, "tom-torns," euphonies of bagpipes, chanting of Indians, hymnals of rites and crash of artillery, roaring of lions, vocalizations of a million birds and animals, jubilee singing, shouts and sounds above all, the majestic strains of Bohumir Kryl's great band. Its Chutes cascades, 500 feet in mid-air, and its waterfalls, 100 feet in rainbows. Gay gondolas descend in clouds of mist, dashing downward until its transparent waters into foam. Laughter and shouts of delighted passions in musical murmur of the falling cascades. In a thrilling "Wild West," cowboys and indians exhibit feats of bronze riding. The biblical story of Babylon is en- tended to the young women and women is the historical context. In Big Otto's Animal Jungle, "Miss Dixie," young, pretty and fearless, enters a den of lions, jaguars, panthers and wildcats. She seizes the jaws of a Núruguayan, who has her head between great teeth that gleam dangerously against her white throat. A naval battle between the Monitor and Merrimac; the "Kyrahausen," the mountainous retreat of Emperor Barbaro and Paul Revere's ride are historical. Camelis and elephants bear laughing children; in a Flea Circus tiny inseeds perform wimbleful seats; a pony hippopotamus, living pictures; Turkish dances, circle and giant swings, motor and submarine boats, deep sea divers, live whales, skating rinks, velvet and aerial coasters mechanical instruments, Tuscan and Islande' waterways, Japanese tea gardens, Chinese pavilions, double whirls, and endless delight-imparting deprivations, kites, plainscapes, courts and waterways. Riverview, an ornamental forest under an opaque sky, glistens with a silvery crest of mechanical diamond lakes. At night this veritable fairyland has wryads of lights that whirl and dash and shimmer a rainbow haze on gay thrones. A more elegant fairy spectacle was never omnivoid. ing her mother-in-law and friends Miss Ercie Randol of Cape Girardeau, who came as a representative to the Grand Court is visiting with relatives this week.

When one has seen it from end to end, outside and inside, and has formed an inventory of what he has seen and learned for a very nominal fee, how much real pleasure and benefit it has been, he can easily understand why a big three-ring circus, of the high standard of the Hagenbeck and Wallace Shows occupies the the enviable position in the amusement world that it does. The far-famed Trained Wild Animal Exhibition which is also presented in conjunction is a show by itself. Circus is coming! A real circus! A big one The largest that travels.

It would be impossible to persuade most people that they deceive themselves; but it is a fact that we are all, in greater or less degree, the victims of sels-deception. We are constantly deceiving ourselves as to what we are going to do in the futre. We draw wonderful pictures of the great things we shall do when we are able to. We feel sure that we will erect and endow a library for our native town; that we will send poor boys and girls to school and college; that we will be wonderfully public-spirited in every way. We pity the close-fisted narrow, indifferent men in our community who are perfectly able to do the things now that we are going to do later. We can not understand why they are so stingy and so blind to their opportunity for embalming themselves in the hearts of their fellow men. We do not understand why they should be so short sighted. Do not deceive yourself by thinking that you are going to do great things in any direction when you get a lot of money, if you are not doing the little things with a little money. I never knew a man to do great things with a lot of money who did not try to do things with a little money. Nothing is more deceptive than the belief that we are going to be very generous when we accumulate a fortune, for self-fishness fattens upon money' until it becomes a voracious greedy animal. Somehow, when our income begins to increase, our wants, which we felt sure would always remain so simple, grow faster than the income, and, strange to say, we can look upon those in want about us without being much disturbed. Pitiable cases of suffering, such as used to make our hearts bleed when we were poor ourselves, no longer arouse our sympathies. We become more and more hardened, until finally we are not only disturbed because we do not assist struggling merit, but we can even enjoy our luxuries while those with a few minute's walk of us are hungry and in rags. We are like the cholera victim. When he first hears that cholera is epidemic in his neighborhood CALL AND SEE JOHN WILLIAMS 119 EAST MORGAN STREET, IF YOU WISH TO SECURE PRIVILEGE.

Lillie Poindexter at the home of her son Joshua Poindexter Friday morning July 3, 1908. Aunt Lillie Poindexter as she was familiar known by every one crossed the dark river of death, and started on the journey towards the land of eternal life and blessedness, where the sunshine always and sorrow never casts its shadows. For several years she had been in feeble health she had lived a long and useful life. But her children and friends hated to see her go espically her son and grand children with whom she made her home. Home is so lonely without grandma. She died at the age of eighty seven years. She was a loyal christain faithful and true. A good womma has gone to join the innumerable tribes that slumber in the bosom of mother earth, she now sits within the shadow of the eternal city of the dead. The angles of death lightly kissed the brow of the aged woman and the Scrathsof Heaven have bourn away her soul to the Heavenly father. And the sweet strains of angel chorus told of eternal joys, as passed through the pearly gates and entered the presence of her God. Sorrow has cast its sea life a terrible fall over the heartily chose that loved her. But she has yielded the sorrow and suffering of this life. She depaed this life with the love and sympathy of all that known her. She was born in Henry County Va. She was the mother of eleven children born in Va. except two only, four are living. She was married to George Pointexter in Patrick County. He died January 17, 1879. She leaves four children to mourn her loss. Mrs. N. T. Pawson Human Weaknesses Concluded he is terrified with fear; but when the dread disease has once fastened itself upon him he looks without emotion at the weeping relatives at his beside, because one of the characteristics of the disease is the utter indifference of the victim. He can not understand the anxiety of those about him, and even when the chill of death is upon him, and his flesh is as cold as marble, he will, tell you that he feels perfectly warm. The possession of wealth seems to dull our finer sensibilities so that we are indifferent to the needs and the sufferings of others. It takes a very strong character to remain unselfish as his wealth increases If you are really anxious to do good, begin now. You can do a great deal with a little money, and if you have no money, you can give kindly, helpful thoughts. You can give encouragement. The desire and the inclination are the main things. On August 4 the voters of all parties in the state of Missouri will be called upon for the first time to express their choice and name a state ticket under the provisions of the new primary law. That this law may have its advantages is perhaps true, but on the other it has some very serious disadvantages, especially in its application to rural districts. The state is peculiars situated in reference to its population, having two large, powerful and poulous cities, one situated on the eastern and the other on the western boarder and containing about one-third of the population. As conventions are eliminated under the provision of the new primary law, there is nothing to excite interest in the rural districts and cause the voters in those localities to take any special concern the coming primary election. Such is not true in the cities, where politics is talked and planned by the professional politicians year in and year out, and if the country districts are not alert and active it is probable that the large cities and thickly populated portions of the state will name the entire state tickets. This danger especially threatens the Republican ticket. Should this be the case our ticket would be geography disjointed and the sections of the state giving large Republicans majorities would not be represented on the ticket,
