McADOO IN MISSOURI Senator Reed might be called a prophet inasmuch as he is without honor in his own country, but certain ly in no other respect. Indeed his comment upon his latest misadven ture shows that he is not even a second rate gusser. Defeated in the effort to capture for himself they Missouri delegation to the national Deniocratc convention, he predicts that his opponent, the Honorable William G.

So well has he done in Missouri that Senator Reed’s own manager declares, “As far as I'm concerned, I’m ready to throw up he sponge.” That a great commonwealth of the free West should perfer William G.
