CLIFF JACKSON A BOLTER.
Last June when the democratic county
convention met, it nominated a ticket.
Cliff Jackson was nominated for prosecut
ing attorney, by a doubtful majority ob
tained in a very questionable way. The same
convention was unanimous in its expres
sion f.r Hon. Jno. T. Heard, instructing
the delegates selested by it to use all hon
orable means to secure his nomination for
congress.
No sooner had the convention that
nominated these two candidates, adjourned,
than Jackson wjs pleading with the Saline
and Corper county democrats to dtfeat Mr
Hearfl.
Djes he or his friends dare deny this?
Now voters of Pettis county, wlut claim
can Jackson have upon you, for your suf
frage after this act, which cannot hi suc
cessfully contracted.
Can it be claimed after this act that he
is not a bolter? The Bazoo leaves it for
the voters to speak at the polls on Tuesday

Particulars of a terrible tragedy enacted

here, by which. W. J. Terrell, a wealthy
and well known farmer, was inBtactly

the young patricide fled to the timber in

crime has cast a cloud of gloom over the
entire community, as Mr. Terrell was
highly respected and widely known.

John T. Heard addressed a large and en

his friends. The republican managers are
thoroughly alarmed and are working he

are leading a forlorn hope.

New Jersey are lost to the republicans be

ws mads rapidly and there was a very
large and enthusiastic crowd here, and
when Blaine appeared on the stand, he was
rectived with loud acclamations. He
spoke briefly, setting forth the interest of
Connecticut in maintaining a protective
svstem under which, in the twenty Tears
between 18G0 and 1880 she had, increased
her wealth as much as in all the preced
ing years of her history. While fr more
than naif a century the democratic party
had steadily opposed it, therefore every
man who really desired the mamtainence
of the protective tariff whatever his party
affiliations in the past, ought to stand
now by the republican party
while on the other hand, every
man who wished for free trade should vote
with the democrats. The points made in
favor of raaintaing the tariff were warmly
applauded. Again, at Walhngford, he
spoke a few words in the me reim. The
train arrived at New Haven at 2:30 o'cl
