acts of her heroes and statesmen. We are
always glad to meet her representative men
at our homes, for we recognize near rela

( illustrious ancestors. We reverence with
great veneration one of your distinguished
governors, the late Hon. John A. Andrews, a
native of our State and in early life one of
my schoolmates. thank you for the pleas

Galveston News:-"Filley, a Mis-
souri, republican boss, whose ways
have been odlous to the CD, has had
to take a seat on the ground" O, no;
you are mistaken. Filley took his seat
as a delegate to. Chicago with the
rest; and he outmaneuvered his enc
mics badly. First, he was polite and
did everything for harmony. Second,
he forced his silkstocking adversaries
into the worse sort of hoodlum tactics
in order to elect the men they desired to
send to Chicago ,one of whom was elect
ed by a viva-voce vote in which only one
side of the vote was taken. 1t is true Mr..
Filley was not elected chairman of the
state committee. Neither was his op-
ponent. o, no; you are mistaken when
you say that Filley was given a seat on
the ground. He is the sharpest of the
lot, and his deposing. will yet be wept
in sackcloth and ashes. Flanagan de-
fined the principles OF the republican
party when he exclaimed, "What are
we here for, if not for the Offices ~
Then who SO conspicuously fit to lead
republicanism in Missouri as a man who
for years has been known by profession
as an Office broker {?

HOW DO FARMERS LIKE IT ?
From the st. Louis Republican.

FROM the ST. Louis Republican,
With wheat down to IS cents n bushel il
western markets and contracts being made
10 deliver it In Liverpool for I'll a bushel, ag.
riculturists will grosn under existing federal
taxation. When the foreign market declines
farmers have to meet it and compete with the
cheap labor of Europe ant carry their com
modities halfway oun the globe to get to
that market. Manufacturers of this country,
on the other hand, with as many advantages
over those OF others as the American agri-
has over those of other lands, de-
msnd that their profits shall not be made to
with the low prices of the world.
The government must step In and make good
on the consumers their accustomed percent
age of gains. This II a use of the power of
government which was never contemplated
by the constitution. 1t Is fragrant injustice
to one class Of citizens and favoritism to an-
other. This is protection carried to the ex-
tent now prevailing under the economy of the
republican party in this country.

American Newspapers for 1884.

From the edition Of Messrs. George r.
RoWell g. Co.'S American Newspaper Direc-
tory. now in press, it. appears that the news
papers and periodicals OF al kinds at present
issued In the United States and Canada reach
q grand total OF IL. 4O2. This ia a net gain of
precisely l,GOO during the last twelve months,
and exhibits an increase of 5,6lS over the total
number published just ten Years since. The
increase In 1874 over the total for 1873 was
1873. During the past year the dailies have
increased from 1,13s to 1884; the weeklies
from 9,Oe1 to 1928; and the monthlies from
1.09l to 1899. The greatest Increase is in the
western states. Illinois, for Instance, now
shows 1909 papers In place of last years
total OF 9oa, while Missouri issues GO4 instead
of the 5e3 reported In 1888. Other leading
western states also exhibit a great percent
age of increase. The total number of papers
in New York state Is 1873. against 1899 in
1883. Canada has shared in the general in
crease.

The Morrison tariff bill was taken
up, Tuesday, by vote of 14O to 1873. A
good many republicans lodged the
vote. There were 80 democratic votes
in the negative, and S republican votes
in the affirmative. The vote is not a
index Of the tate of the bill, as
there is no telling how the absentees
will vote when a full house is called on
to pass or reject it.
