MahOnism

A reporter of the St. Louis Globe
Democrat interviewed D. H. McIn-
tyre, of this county. last week in re-
gard to Mahonizing Missouri, with
the following result:
Capt. Daniel Mcintyre, the Attor-
ney-Genersl, was up TO his eyes in
business, in his snug office in the
Supreme Court huilding, but received
the reporter courteously. After de-
claring his unwillingness to say any,
thing about anything for publication,
~ is the custom OF most public mefy,
st. Louis, however, furnishing two or
three very notable exceptions 70 the
rule, said that he unquestienably an
ticipated that at the next general
ELECTION au- alliance would be formed
between the Republicans and the
Greenbackers of Missouri, Such an
alliance he admitted would be formid-
able, but not dangerous. As to
stMahonizing'' Missouri, the condi-
tons for the success of such . move
ment as the term implies were lack
ing in the State, There was no de-
lection in the Democratic ranks, and,
looking over the State. he could not
see one prominent Democrat who,
should he be blinded by such offers
as the Republican party could offer,
and turn renegade, could carry out
of the ranks of the grand oh Demo-
cratic party a following worthy of a
moments consideration. A move
ment, that could be but an unholy
alliance, with no higher purpose to
guide it than a greed for the spoils
Of Office, would lead, in the happy
and prosperous Missouri of to-day,
but q wretched life.

From the Sturgeon Leader.

Mrs. Laura Steele, of Mexico, for
merly Miss Laura Doane, of this
place, was visiting here last week.
The sight of Sturgeon brought vivid
ly to her mind the sad events of Sep
TENDER, 1854. It will be remembered
that some dozen or more Federal
soldiers, who had been killed by An
derson's men at what is known as
the Centralia Massacre, were brought
here and laid in the churches. Miss
Laura Doane and Miss Mollie Mise,
two young ladies Of this place, and
of well-known southern sentiments,
were compelled to wash the CHASTITY
faces of the dead soldiers and to as
sist IN preparing them for burial
Mrs. Steele said that when she looked
into the church she could See the
spectral forms of these dead men as
when, nearly eighteen years ago,
they looked up at her with q deathly
glare.

Sill Majority.

Thousands of Republicans in Penn
sylvania staid at home on election day
Thousands more voted for Pattison.
Yet, in spite of this Republican dis
affection, the combined vote for Bea-
yer and Stewart exceeds the vote cast
for the Democratic candidate
The Republicans are thus a clear
majority of the people now, as they
have been in the past, and the ques-
tion of future success is simply one OF
bringing the two Republican divisions
together. With common sense and
common patriotism on both sides there
is no difficulty in accomplishing this
reunion. The causes of the division
are patent to every intelligent man.
The usurpation of all authority in the
hands Of d central junta, and the pros
titution of all the power of the party
to the selfish purposes of the bosses
have produced the revolt. Remove
the grounds of complaint, and there
will be no differences Stop packed
Conventions and slated tickets and
personal prescription, and there will
be no trouble. Make q free party, let
the Conventions be truly representa-
tive, let the action of the party fairly
reflect the will Of its intelligent mass
es, let the organization and the plat
form be broad enough for oil Republi-

have abused their accidental power,
the Republicans have had no purpose
Of permitting the government to pass
into Democratic hands. They distrust
that party as profoundly as ever.
They haye struck their blow, not to
strengthen the Democracy, but to cut
the cancer out of their own party and
quicken it with new life and vigor.
They have chosen the midway hour
of 1882 in order to make secure OF
1884. Relieved of the burdens which
haye weighed down the party, spring
ing under new and inspiring leader
ship, and rising to the full demands of
the future, the great Republican or
ganization will gain fresh vitality
from its regeneration.
The very sweep and magnitude OF
the reverse make the recovery more
sure, because they prove that it is the
work of Republicans. 1t is in no
sense partisan triumph. But little
more than year ago the Republican
party held position of strength and
security which had never been sur
passed in it's whole history. 1t had a
lead ersbip which it fully trusted; it
had a President whose broad states
manship and elevated views inspired
it's confidence; it had a policy and a
purpose which were worthy of its
great career. Within a year it has
witnessed most hutuiliating change.
and the men who have trampled upon
the legacy left to them, who have
wantonlv defed the declared will of
the Republican masses, and who have
dertaken by odious methods to en-
throne a faction above the party, can
now look upon the disaster they have
Wrought and see the wreck of their,
own schemes.
While they go down, the party, re-
deemed from their mismanagement
will recover its position. 1t will dis
miss those who have plunged it into
the present catastrophe; it will bring
forward a tried and capable leadership;
it will put itself upon the highest plat
form of principle; it will address itself
again to the judgment and conscience
of the country; it will by broad and
generous spirit win the united support
OF Republicans of all shades; and 1t
will thus pluck victory out OF danger.
