Financially Missouri stands among

ot the present constitution the debt
ot the state is diminishing from vear
to year and the counties, cities and
farmers, sixty-one lawyers, five doc
tors, five newspaper men. ami five
clerks. Xo other calling is reure
sented by more than three members.
The people ot the United State have
hardly any conception ot the pro
