Tail's man. A. G. Baker, puts the
Progressive vote of Morgan County at
100; Fred Monsess. county assessor,
places it at 50; making an average of
75. Now if there are 75 sensible
voters in Morgan County, that is a
good start, more than there has been
at any previous election. ''Th
ficht is on." and will go on until
victory is soon.
The Progressives of Morgan Coun
ty have decided to not put out a pro
ercssivc ticket this year. We think
they have missed a great opportunity,
for it is impossible to take the tickets
of the old parties and select a decent
ttcket from the two. Two years
hence there will be a Progressive
ticket, in the meantime it is "Poor
off Morgan," the home of the graft
er and boodler.
The new State Capitol, accorning
to the plans; will cost $2.2.'30.127,
and the successful New York archit
ects get 6 per cent of the cost as their
fee. Figure it up and see what a
nice fat job that is. They also sug
gest putting a concrete roof over the
Mo. Pac. Ry- down to the river to
shut out the noise and smoke, at a
cost of $500,000. and if that is adopt
ed we suppose the architects will also
get 6 per cent of that. And then
there is the commissioners and flunk
eys for many years to be added in,
and then will come the furnishings,
which must be up-to-date, so you see
it costs money to liuild a $3,500,000
capitol, and to hide so valuable a
building in the most lonesome corner
of the state, where it will never be
seen by mortal eye, unless a special
trip is made for the purpose why
the new city of Damsite down on
White River would be a more suitable
location. It is true that when the
legislature is in session, with the state
officials and the penitentory, Jefferson
City holds the great bulk of the un
desirable citizens of the state, and if
the legislature was in continuous per
formance there would be less kicking
on the subject of location.

The Blue And The Gray.
By the flow of the inland river,
Whence the fleets of iron have
fled,N
Where the blades of the grave grass
quiver,
Asleep are the ranks of the dead.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the one, the Blue,
Under the other, the Gray.
Those in the robins of glory,
These in the gloom of defeat,
All with the battle-blood gory,
In the dusk ol eternity meet.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the laurel, the Blue,
Under the willow, the Gray.
From the silence of sorrowfnl hours
The desolate mourners go,
Lovingly laden with flowers
Alike for the friend and the foe.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the roses, the Blue,
Under the lilies, the Gray.
So with an equal splendor
The morning sun rays fall,
With touch, impartially tender,
On the blossoms blooming for all.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Broidered with gold, the Blue,
Mellowed with gold, the Gray.
So when the summer calleth
On forest and field of grain,
With an equal murmur falleth
The cooling drip of the rain.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Wet with rain, the Blue,
Wet with rain, the Gray.
Sadly, but not with upbraiding.
The generous deed was done :
In the storm of years that are fading
No braver battle was won.
Under the sod and dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the blossoms, the Blue,
Under the garland, the Gray.
No more shall the war cry sever.
Ncr the winding river be red;
They banish our anger forever,
When they laurel the graves of
our deatl.
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Ix)ve and tears for the Blue,
Tears and love for the Gray.
