THE SITUATION AT ST. LOUIS.
ST. LOUIS, March 22.-The Missouri Pa
citic machine shop strikers held q meeting
this morning and reavowed their inten
ton OF remaining firm until their demand
is acceded to. They deny that any o
their number have resumed work, as as
serted on Saturday, on the contrary they
assert that Eve OF those who did not sc
out originally have quit and signed q
pledge to remain out until the end. They
also say that not more than thirty men
are now working in the shops. The work
in the Missouri Pacific and some other
yards Is being done by train crews and
such other men as have been picked up.
But few OF the roads are yet very well
fixed. Some dozen or fifteen yard men
came over from Terre Haute and other
points East this morning TO work in the
Vandalia yard, but the strikers prevailed
on them not to do so.

Republican papers was as great as
their courage. Every issue that has
arisen has been discussed fearlessly
and skilfully. The ability and zeal
with which the business mems issue
and the tariff question were urged
upon the country are cases in point.
They made clean campaign also.
General Hancock was treated with
the respect which his private charac-
ter and public services demanded.
At the same time there has not been

forward by the Democratic press,
which the Republican papers, by
reason of having much the greater
supply of brains, as we'll as the truth
on their side, have not made to re-
coil upon the head of its inventors.
The Democratic gem of vituperation,
800, and the Democratic master
piece in campaign fiction, the forged
letter, were made good for thousands
and thousands of Republican votes
by the ffankness with which the
Republican papers took them up,and
the wit and skill with which they
turned them back upon their au-
thors, The Democratic cry for "a
change" was caught up in the same
way, and used with telling effect.
But it would take a good part OF
President Garfield's term to enumer-
ate the achievements of the Repub-
lican press of the interior in this
campaign. This splendid engine of
enlightenment and progress has rat
tered the walls of the Democracy
blow upon blow, week after week,
month after month-until they fell,
and great was the fall thereof.
1t would not be just to omit trib-
ute TO the most efficient ally the Re
publican press has had-viz the
Democratic press. Has there ever
been a time when the low tone and
inferior ability of the average DEM
Ocratic newspaper were so conspicu-

the truth when it helped the other
side, nor the skill to tell it well when
it might help its own side. A Dem

Of Tuesday, no grateful Republican

grateful Republicans to-day for

can newspapers. There has never
been campaign in which the power
of an intelligent and conscientious
press showed itself so great as this.
There has never been campaign in
which the Republican newspapers,
and particularly those of the inte-
rior, were so far in advance of public
opinion. and none in which thew had
more electric success In arousing
the better sentiment Of the country
to the dangers of Democratic adj
ministration. When Gen. Hancock
was nominated hardly Democrat
could be found who did not sincerely
believe that his candidate was FORE
ordained to be President, and many
Republicans feared it. His nomina.
ton made temporary truce in this
State. His personal character was
above reproach. His military record
was brilliant, and it had not been
proven that iN civil affairs he would

But the Republican press, know
ing the danger that lay in the path,
went to work with grand energy,
undismayed by the 1873 electoral votes
which the South had massed together
to be voted in lump. We venture
to say that there has never been a
campaign in which the Republican
newspapers, from Maine to Califor-
MIA. showed such fighting ability and
such fighting spirit as i'll this. From
the day the campaign opened they
put the Democratic party where it
belonged-on the defensive. They
forced the Democratic record, in all

A Paying Occupation.

The approach of the long winter
evenings calls attention to the matter
of a lamp. for without good light
half the pleasure or profit is taken
from reading or study. Coal oil is
now in general use for illuminating
purposes outside of cities or large
towns where coal gas is used, and
when proper lamp is used it is the
best substitute for sunlight yet dis
covered. The principle or plan upon
which the Student lamp is conetruc-
ted may he said to be the best in
use, but the lamp itself has always
had several Objectionable features
which we are glad to see are being
done away with in the new aspirant
for favor called the HONE LAMP, "
manufactured by the Home Lamp
Co. of Cincinnati. The great Offices
ton to most other lamps is their liza
hility to be upset, the trouble to keep
them in order, and the poor light
given by them. The New Home
Lamp is Nickle Plated, and almost IA
fac in1itie of the Student Lamp; it
has a handsome ornamented clamp
by means of which the lamp can at
ence be easily adjusted to any posi-
ton upon the centre table, piano,
music rest, sewing machine, desk, or
by means of a handsome bracket,
which goes with the lamp, can be
placed upon the wall, and in what
ever position it is placed it is abso.
lutely safe. This is the great feature
of excellence. but the New Home
Lamp combines also the patent ar
gand burner. filling indicator and
match box. No lamp has ever be-
fore been received with such unusual
favor or received such strong recon.
mendations from the leading journals
of Cincinnati. 1t is also endorsed by
such men as the mayor and postmas-
ter, several insurance presidents and
express agents Of that city as the
safest, most convenient and best
lamp made. The Company desires
agents in this locality, and any
smart lady or gentleman can make
a handsome income during the next
six months by canyassing for its sale.
There is hardly dozen families in
this county who will not want one,
and the price is so lew as to bring it
within the reach of all. For further

Drop Politics and Attend to Business

From the New Orleans Times, Dem
We have now four years before us
to devote exclusively to our material
Improvement. Let us forget politics
during that period. We have moth
ing to apprehend from the national
government. 1t cannot interfere in
our local affairs IN any way even if it
were SO disposed. But we do not be-
lieye that it will be animated by any
feeling of hostility towards us. On
the contrary we are inclined to think
that the incoming administration
will be as kindly disposed towards
this section as the present one. In
deed, in the matter of material as
sistance there is reason to expect
more from the Republican party than
from the Democratic. That party
is more liberal with respect to inter-
nal improvements than the Demo
cratic party, and we must look 10 it
for assistance if our levees are to be
rebuilt and the Mississippi river is to
be improved by government aid.
This fact was clearly demonstrated
at the last session of congress, where
our demands respecting the levees
and the Mississippi river met with
encouragement chiefly from Western
Republicans. Our State and mum.
cipal governments are in the hands
of our own people. Il our local affairs
are not ably anil honestly managed,
therefore, we have nobody to blame
hut ourselves. Under the circum-
stances, therefore, our interest and
our duty point in one direction. That
direction is away from politics and
towards business. Our climate is
salubrious and our soil is uneoualled
in fertility. Let US invite immigra.
ton, and expend our energies in the
development of our material resour-
ces. We can easily double and treble
cur productions. Our cotton. sugar
and other products will soon make us
rich. Our city is showing new signs
oflife. She has taken second.growth
which promises to be more vigor-
Gus than the first. She is drawing
her vitality from the South and great
West through the iron and water
arteries of commerce. We say then
to the people of this State. Give
your undivided attention to business
during the next four years, and dent
bother yourselves unduly about poll
tics.

that are handsomely finished, 1t is only done
to make them salable. They have no other
merit only as piece of furniture. They may
work for a short time, and then they are
worse than useless to you. Beware of new
machines that are being brought among you.
The agent may try to make everything plain
to you in order to sell his machine, but in a
few months he is gone; then who will fix
your machine. or where will you get parts or
needles when you need them. Beware of the

as the Genuine. This is falsehood and only
resorted to to sell the trash and deceive the
people, as no part of the machine will fit the
