WW- THE REPUBLICAN, PkrcV'H. VanDvkk, l!ditor. Issued every Hrlday morning. Entered at the Post Office at Marshall, Mo., atKcondclasi mai matter Trlkpiionk, No. y. Friday, Dr.CHMiiRK aj, 189S Missouri furnished three signers to a protest against the expansion policy of the president. Kx.-Cov. Stone, the Imperialist, says lie agrees with Senator Vest in his rampage against expansion The country will hardly hold Its breath while the contest be tween Newlamls and Stewart for a scat lu the Senate Is being waged in the Nevada legislature. The governor stMcs that he has no candidate for the speakership of the house. The asset tlon may be ventured however, that there are several who arc not his candidates The future will noon prove whether a member of the body through disuse, loses the faculty which it originally potsciivicd Col. llryan has been relieved of his gag.

The future of the Democratic party as portrayed by the Colum bin Herald might nil be true enough if the prediction had been based upon present realities, lu stead of the ideal Democracy of Jefferson. Tile Glasgow Mlsvnirl.111 is one paper ably edited, that has not yit yielded to the crack of the party whip concerning the expansion doctrine. There are thousands of Democrats all over Missouri, who liellevc that our destiny reaches lieyoud the confines of its past iKiuudarics. Kdward llutlcr, the ward oli ticiau. of St. Louis, declined to witness n prize fight at Hot Springs lvcauso of the regard he had for his own iiputation as an honorable ward hetler. Gov. Stephens had no such icgard (or the high office he fills, and wit nesscd the fight. The net Is not criticised, but tin- comparison is one of those that have b:en wiled odious, One of the rsnst enterprising nnd progressive pipers of this state is the Slater Index. lu newsp.ier work, the most valu able faculties a mm can possess arc those- two fundamental requisites to successful journalism, which nre to be seen nt any time in the columns of the above mentioned paper. The Christmas number was n very neat, ntllsjlc mid up to date issue mid one of Which any editor might well feel proud. Such a paper is greatly to the credit of the little railroad city in which It is published, and should receive the backing of Its citizens by reason of its enterprise, England wilt soon be given a chance to show that her friendship for us is genuine in giving up the the rights ceded to her by the Clay. ton-Dutwer treaty and allowing this country the sole right of build Ing and operating the Nicaragua Canal. Missouri has reached a stand stilt point. Its Vest is opposed to expansion, but there arc other Missourians who think the old garment should be cast off, as It Is no longer a good fit, misrepresent ing our opinions of the acquire mcnt of the Philippines. The Gilliam Dee has quite business end, which causes most of its editors to turn loose in a short time. The Riti-unucAN extends Its best wishes to the new editor, Mr. Jesse 1 Mc.Mahati, and hopes to continue the amicable relations between the two papers, trusting that it will not be our misfortune to get stung. President McKinley is evident ly not ttlisficd with what thenar has done toward the obliteration of all sectional feeling. His noble sentiments of American brother hood and loyalty to a common country have made him a hero in the land he once invaded. His broad .statesmanship which has ever been far alwve partisan and sectional bitterness, have made his administration the one lu which history may justly accord the total obliteration of narrow sectionalism. Attorney (icncrnl Crow has late ly signified his intention of mak lug it warm for some monopolies under tlie anti-trust law adopted four years ago. A long time is necessary for good ideas to lie gradually forced forward into reso lution in the minds of some Mis souri politicians. If the execu tion of his plans waits so long in the wake of his intentions, he will doubtless find himself, wheu the time rolls around, bereft of the official duties he o.ice was charged to perform.

Hook on (IU taM-a ot tho heart and nerreitree, AdilNU. UB. MIJ.B) MTSVICALOO, tUUau, Ind. (Bt. v K W Nervines 'In the reports of the Collins murder, case1 by the Star and Journal o( Kansas City, there is a wide difference of Information con veyed. If you read the former, you will most cettalnly convict the young man of the awful crime of which he Is now charged, for be tweeu the lines arc written plainly his guilt and coming conviction. It is certainty to the credit of the Journal that, though always on upholder of the law and justice, It has not assumed the .weighty obli gation of personal responsibility for convicting a man in the minds of thousands of its readers, when not half the evidence has been heard. The Journal has given its readers the testimony of the wit nesses in the case adding none of the coloring of prejudice. The newspaper striving to convict an alleged criminal without conclusive evidence, and the assuming by it of the duties of a lawful jury, must hardly appreciate the wrong which can be done an Innocent man. It Is a responsibility, which should not be entered uon so lightly as is the case in modern journalism, or with so little regard to the Injury of one who has not yet been proven guilty and may be innocent. Several weeks ago, the Kit run LI CAN commented editorially upon the scheme, adopted by the Demo cratic National I.xccutivc com mittce, under the direction of Coin Harvey, for raising n cam palgn fund for toot-. The remark was made, that in icw of the uu certainty as to what the issue in the coming campaign would be. Democrats were hardly . willing to help n cause they might not then be advocating- A typographical error making "care" read as "dare" In the following sentence. chauged Its meaning very mater tally, which was not that the people do not dare fight moneyed interests, hut that they tlo not care to fight and nt the same time sup- tiort them. In other words, should the Democratic party fail to make silver an issue in the next campaign, it would be with no little chagrin, that they woul look upon Coin Harvey holding the keys to their campaign fund for other purposes, One dollar per month from every loyal Demo. crat would make n tremendous fund even for a national campaign mid one to which, some of the best men of the party nre unalterably opposed, feeling that the stand ol their party upon tills issue may not continue the same. The Slater Hustler used this chance rrrortoget n little gny nnd sling mud; but this explanation will doubtless render clear the intent of the author. While we acknowl edge the mistake, it docs not lessen our opinion that the Slater paper is very keen to criticise and very ilHions of throwing mud.
