, "Taw Democratic patty," aaya
th State jTribuM which pretendi
to be $he oCcUl organ of the party,
btt to Martr that of the admtnls
trttlws wing, "aeed a'touch of iu
"old tine aggressiveness. It needs
to lay down its shield and pick up
a sword,"
Concluding tbla opculuir appeal
follows, the statement, which Is not
a true proposition and from which
therefore no valid couclnslon can
, be drawn. That "the record jof
Democracy la this atate, needs no
jlcfewt" la preposterous. It Is an
open imposition upon the people.
to think that they believe what
ever la Democratic (by our leglsla
ture'a construction) Is right. It
would be well for the state Demo
cracy, If no defense were needed
for its record, for where is it not
vulnerable? The people have
been so well informed as to the do
nothing and do-wrong policy of
the legislature, the stubbornness
of the Governor, tome of whose
appointees are dlsrcpuUble and
disgrace to him, yet who receiv
his open support, that Instead of
enumerating the weak points
they would rather learn of what
saving graces can be summoned In
defense of an administration that
must be acknowledged a failure
and a legislature that fizzled away
Its usefulness and time in a party
squabble. Whether Stephens Is
all that some accuse him of, or
whether the legislature has been as
useless as charged, the failure of
iroth In the way of securing practi
cat and needed legislation Isack
iiowlcdged, save by a few organs,
which do state printing and hope
to continue to do the same, by ile
ceiylng the people of Missouri
Hut the attempt Is presumption,
in view of the knowledge possessed
by the eopo as to actual (acts
Vet revcrtlug more directly to
the aubject, why should tlicdcn.o
cratlc party seek to play the ng
grcssor iu this state. It is not so
much for the enthusiasm, i;oing
forward brings, but to withdraw
attention, from what m n ilnxt,
As the parly In power, controlling
' every branch of state government
and its Institutions, and therefore
In every sense rcsoniihlc for its
management, it Is right and just
that Democracy kbould be on the
defensive; aud the voters of Mis.
sourl will hold that party upon its
record, regardless of the fact Hint
It would prefer to shift the same.
Though ifulelc to claim credit for
what little good they do, the .slate
leaders do not rely with much con
fideucc on the record of the past
two years.
Concluding its,advice, the organ
mentioned proceeded to show that
Keptiblicau rr.le in ante-bellum
and reconstruction days could be
nude a good issue. Tut 11 back Iu
the course of history nenrly thirty
years, judge the Republican state
leaders then (who arc all dead,) ac
cording to traditions; on the other
hand, judge the leaders Iu Demo
cracy of to day by their professions,
and not by records that are being
chronicled in every daily of the
state, regardless of politics do
thrse two things and .you do the
bidding of the machine democrats
of this state, who seek toperpeiu-
at the existing order of things.
Thli o'd war cry, which bM crack
ed the party's lash in every cam
palgn, Is played out and will only
convince Misaourians of the hot
town ess of that party's claims and
promises.
The very Indications of the
times, point to a refusal to allow
such by.gone and misinterpreted
history to become the Issues of the
next state campaign. Immorality
and drunkenness running our state
institutions, extravagance hand iu
hand with unjust tax measures to
make it possible, the work of our
legislature it Is time that the
people investigate closely and vote
accordingly Iu state matters, rather
than take the word aud charges of
persons, who are directly interest
ed In the success of the state
ticket.
This Is all the Republicans of
Missouri ask, confident that in their
own deserts, and the "sorry" record
of their opponents, there cau be
no faltering or doubting as to
choice of which party, greater good
can be done both to Missouri and
her citizens.
Under the Inviting laws of New
Jersey, trusts have been Incorpor
atcd with an aggregate capital
of
11500,000,000 since January tst
of the present year. New Jersey';
gain is the country's loss however
aud the fact becomes more evident
each mouth, that something must
be done to curtail the powers
of
trusts, thus decreasing the advan
tages to be gained by such combln
ations, aud maintaining opening to
Individual enterprises. The Rep
ublican parly Is not a friend
of
trust, iu the powers they arc now
using, and will prove this in the
next Congress. It is not In th
position of the Irresponsible inla
ority parly, and consequently is not
so profuse and rabid in its d eclat a
tions, nor vo vainly courting a pop
ular sympathy that is gained by
loud protestations which they are
not In a position to enact. Res-
ponsibillty adds conservation to the
exercise o( ntilhorily, aud the
Republican parly may he trusted
to deal with this evil when the
next Congress meets.
The Dcmocatlc dinner to be glv
en iu St. Louis this month, accord
lug to the calculation of some of
the state leaders, will not be graced
with any toast responses from the
old leaders of the party. The par
ty managers, while in full sway in
state jiolitlcs, should spend a part
of their evening iu emoting the
pipe of peace. As lo how Stephens
aud some of the county editors are
lo sup at the same tabic aud lay
aside their former acctisntlons, Is
not exactly self evident. Some
llscretlon must be used, not only
iu the invitations, but also as lo
seals, lest the Missouri dinner
prove n less harmonious affair, than
the New York arrangements,
If Dewey's return be postponed
till that time when he shall escape
notice and the ovations of an ad
miring public, he must perforce
Iwcome a resident of our territory
across the Pacific, War heroes
holding the hearts of Americans
as Dewey does, are not forgotten,
when peace reigns, so the Admiral
might as welt resign himself to the
Inevitable and not remain away to
avoid public notice.

The long domination of any one
party in state or national politics
brings forward the machine ele
raent of that organization to be
its master aud dictate Its course.
Thla Is an acknowledged truth,
and no less Is It true, that ma
chine politics, necessarily becomes
corrupt, because not guided by the
general average morality of the
people, but bycorrupt ringslers,
who hesitate not to subserviate
wise legislation, fair administration
and just rulings, to openly cor
rupt plundering and squandering
of public moneys and offices. This
is true in Missouri and the people
have at last recognized It.

The response, that has met the
appeal of Klrksville's Mayor for
aid, is quite In touch with the
brotherly feeling that binds Ameri
can hearts, not only as fellow
countrymen but iu the broader
humanitarian ties.
The most apt Illustration of the
winding motion o! the Klrksville
cyclone, was the case reported, in
which a young lady suffered the
loss of one of two plaits of hair,
and the other was left Intact.
