Thoughts Worth Repeating A Disgrace to Missouri

An editorial broadside denounces Missouri state policy and Governor Hadley over hospital staffing and pardons. It accuses the Republican board of neglect at State Hospital No 2 and praises a pardon attorney for opposing Agnes Myers. It critiques Hadley’s license tax stance on liquor interests and hints at political bargaining in the legislature.

Political clash over liquor interests and tax bargain outlined

The piece cites the State campaign against W. B. Cowherd accusing him of deals with St. Louis liquor interests. It notes a bargain to pay large taxes to the Hadley machine in return for leniency, and a governor who decries liquor betrayal while threatening a special session to pressure distillers and brewers. It also reports personnel moves at the Commercial Bank and brief notes on Dr. Cooks and the Maryville Normal connection.
