ST. LOUIS, October SO.-A Republican
meeting here this evening was broken up

stoned, and resented the assaults, using
their torches on their assaiants. AT the
meeting negro in the crowd was struck

The negroes rushed toward the saloon on

under the belief that the brick was thrown

they were confronted by three policemen,
who prevented them from entering. They
began throwing rocks at the saloon, break

OF the policemen discharged q pistol In

Ptomiscuous firing then began, during
which old man Brown was killed aud
Policeman Slattery struck on the hand by

This Congressional district should be

belongs to the Free Trade party Of the

ated himself from @. D. Hubbard Of this

DUBLIN, October 30.-There is no ques.

Of anarchy. The landlords are afraid to
compel those who till the land to pay
the stipulated contracts. Combinatiops

that absolute unserupulousness supplies.
Landlords agents are threatened, and ar
rogant frebrands perambulate the coun.
try, stirring up sedition and class warfare.
Arms are pouring into the country.
Weapons are purchased for an object well
known. 1t Is not what the state OF the
country is to-day, or what 1t will be a
week hence, that excites the attention Of
the patriotic, order-loving people, but
what it will be month hence, no pro.
vision having been made 10 check the

the Crown says that nothing could be

has absted somewhat, pending tie action
OF the government.

Free trade brought America into the
depths Of poverty after the revolution, and
compelled the adoption OF q protective
tariff In 1890.
Democratic free trade put half the
country through the Sheriff hand in 1919,
and forced the Democrats themselves to
