Sometimes I believe the little ones says the best things after all. I know a little family in Detroit who are heart-broken and sad this Satur day night. There was three last Saturday,but to-day only two are left. The tie that bound them more close ly than that which the clergyman drew has been lately loosened, and the light of their countenance went out with the red winter sun only the other night. The father is a railroad man whose duties call him away from home nearly three-fourths of the time. It was his habit, when ever he was about to start for home, to telegraph to his wife, apprising her of the fact. In the telegram he never failed to mention the name of their little four-year-old, and the dispatch usually ran as follows: "Tell Arthur I shall sleep with him to-night." The baby boy wa very proud of these telegrams, which his mother would read over to him, and he consider the "teledraf" a great institution. The other night when the fever had done its work, and the mother was Bobbing out her anguish the little one turned calmly in his bed and said. Don't ky, mamma; I s'all s'eep wiv Dod, 'oo know, Send Dod a teledraf, and tell him s'all s'eep wiv him to-night." But the message went up there without the clicking of wires or the rustle of wings.

V est i? the man they are after and they are working in the interest of the Chicago beef combine Again you find fellows, without any apparent personal interest, working Sebee. Are they doing his work for the love of the thing? We rather suspect not There is a motive at the bottom of it, and we don't have to go far to find out what is the matter. These things should be a warning to democrats to be up and doing. Ray county baa a very safe democratic majority, that the money of the beef combine can't reach, but we want to keep it safe. Farris must be elected by an in creased majority in order to rebuke the combine, and Sebee must not have less than 1,000 majority. Dem ocrats must work and not falter. The farmers 'can't afford to have Vest defeated.-Itichmond Democrat The Missouri Campaign. The action of the democrats of Missouri in holding an early conven tion was wise, as opportunity was thus given for a vigorous three months' campaign of education. Though considerable time has pass ed in getting the work fairly inau rated, there are many ways iu which the state committee can render most valuable service to the party during the time that remains' before the elec tion, lt can not only provide for a thorough general canvass of the state, but energetic work under its direction in close republican coun- tifio Yxrill fnoii I v nt moflrnH rratma in the legislature. A good deal has WttUB cuimT8 . .r. T TT 1 1 1 II 1 cans are centering their attack. The situation in such counties deserves the most careful consideration, but it should not exclude equal consid eration for the close republican counties which in such a year as this will easily become democratic if suf ficient energy is shown by the chair' man of the state committee and his able associates. . It will be a mistake to hold back the campaign with a view to leaving the work entirely with the democrats -wuu 8.vU guwuu. uw m, uo u tuui wno win not ao nis part ana more, but the whole power of the party must be exerted. Activity is called for, not only on the part of the var- ions committees, but of the rank and file of the party. Democrats must be watchful and aggressive. Al- though the republican state conven tion repudiated all farmers' candi dates and openly snubbed the agri cultural interests of the state, the republican committee is still work ing through its agents in the farm ers lodges, attempting to divide them and neutralize their influence. Another method of republican work against which democrats must be es- pecially watchful is trading combi nations on county officers. They are anxious to cive votes for countv officers iu return for votes for the legislature, and they would probably ocrats would force off the ticket anv county nominee guilty of the treach- ery of such trading, and while dein- ocratic nominees for county offices are as a rule incapable of it, the re- publicanisai must be watched at all points. - It was lamented during the Dress- ed Ueef investigation that ''the Big i? our of Chicago would have some. tning to say in the election of the next Missouri legislature, and the republicans will certainly miss no opportunity of adding to their cam puigu iuuu. democrats nave no money to spend, and no desire to imitate the corrupt practice of the republican managers. Reliance for J i " . uemocrauc success against COrrup- tion funds and trickery must be on democratic activity and vigilant ag- gressiveness. The campaign in Missouri should aot be one of waiting for republican attack, but of attack on republican- ism at all points. There are as many close republican counties in the state as there are close democratic about 30 in each case which the party calculators, on one side or the other, claim as doubtful. It is certainly easy for the democrats to carry the! doubtful counties as the republicans. I ljOUl8 "public. w xtnCnn ia tn a Ppj - onH RaODQ Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 27 to 28.
