11AriiioBy.

We appeal to all of the Demo-
cratic faith to remen Der one, aud
the most important, thing for their
welfare and happiness and that is
that upon the huity aud concord of
the Democrats of Madison county
aud Mississippi rests the hopes OF
the State, its future for veal or for
woe.
This man may be nominated for
Office, or that man may be defeated,
but yet the fact remains that the
civilization OF the State. the hdppi-
ness of the people. and their adj
vance in morality and prosperity
will not be affected.
The people of this State who pay
the taxes, who own the property,
that sre possessed of the highest
education and. morality, who are
Anglo-Saxons of tho highest and
best type, are Democrats, and shall
they allow a few bad men, under
the guise of Independents, to mass
the ignorant and vicious, who have
no stake in the land, no property,
no education, no morality tn rule
the destinies of a great Ststef We
answer, no! Look at the leaders
that are attempting to make head.
way against the Democratic party.
Who are theyf Either broken
down Radical politicians, bull>
doing Democratic DULLES that the
party has gladly gotten lid of, OF
broken down Democratic hacks
who are soured because they arc
not considered the hottest of the
holy and altogether lovely. Now,
we say to this gentry, and we mean
what we say, that the people OF this
State are not going to allow them
to rule in any manner whatsoever
and all their vaporing talk and
bullying ways will simply end il
their being knocked down and ruI
over at the proper time. We hOp<
thcy will not mistake the q:,ietuds
of the masses of Democratic for ac'
quiescence, we simply feel this way
that they are not worth foolinl
with until they get in the wa.
lreally, and when they do they vii
be run over. Tue Democrats o
this State have had enough of in
competent rule, aud they will no
tolerate it from any source what
ever. That's what We know ab0u
it. Let us have harmony, peac'
and honest rule.

TO depend than eYer upon the
west for supplies. At the same time
the western demand has been greater,
both for ranehing and eonsumptiye
purposes than ever before known in the
history of the trade. The effect has
been to stimulate and encourage conf
dence in the market. Prices of all
kinds of cattle have been carried
higher. The advent of grass cattle
will peghaps, check the present buoyant
spirit somewhat, but to what extent it
is hard to say. 1t is generally con-
coded, however, that western cattle
men sell higher as the market on the
plains for ranch stock has partici-
pated in the general advance.

The Kansas City Price Current, in
the curse of an artile on the above
subject, says: In no time in the history
of the western cattle trade has the out
look been more encouraging, The de-
mand is not only brisk for anything
that is decent but such prices are being
realized as guarantees to farmers and
ranchmen handsome profits. There are
but a few in the west that have not
made money feeding cattle the past
season. This Frightening up of the
trade seems to be no spasmodic or
speculative spirit in the market, but
permanent Improvement. Cattle are
higher everywhere, in Texas, on the
plains, among the farmers in the states
and at the live stock centres of the
country. A thrill of life seems to have
shot through the trade all of a sudden.
The truth is, the first tine for years
consumption has caught up with pro-
duction. The extension Of u railroad
system throughout the west has drawn
thousands and thousands of people
this way and multiplied the beef eaters.
While the advent of new roads have
drawn immigration and given birth to
new towns, they have cut into many of
the cattle ranges and rather checked
than stimulated cattle raising along
their lines. The supply in Texas is
falling off every year. The rapid in
crease in immigration and advancement
in legitimate agriculture there crowd
ing the ranges and forcing cattle men
back by degrees. The increase in cat
tie raising on the plains while large, has
not been up to the gains in population.
The pining towns afford a market for
thousands of cattle that formerly came
east. And last season we received
fewer cattle from the west. Not only
this but during the winter our whole
sale slaughterers shipped largo quanti-
ties Of fresh beef to Colorado. And
cattle are now constantly being shipped
from here to Denver and some of the
mining towns. Hence, the west the
past 81 not only failed to furnish
us its accustomed quota but has drawn
on us for supplies. This with the
great loss on the plains during the win
ter months have encouraged buyers and
given an impetus to trade not seen for
years. lt}I
The general prosperity of the
try, more universal employment of the
masses and greater abundance of money
have all tended to stimulate consump-
ton. The high price Of corn, hogs
and provisions have also had their eff
feet. Our foreign trade this spring
shows a falling off, but our home de-
mand has increased to such an extent
as to prevent any unfavorable in
fiuence from this source upon the
market. The eastern states have sent
to malket this spring fewer cattle than
