The following picture of Poplar Bluff
taken during Christmas week, Is from
the faciie pen of Harris, of the Pied
mont Leader. Our sister city, Poplar
Bluff, must have had regular Dom
nybrook Fair OH Monday night of last
week from the account stoekman
from Texas gave our fellow citizen J.
n. Young who came up with him on
Tuesday following the "shindy." The
TeAos gentleman. WHO was ell route to
st. Louis with several car load of stock.
relates that his train orriyed ut Poplar
Bluff in the night. That being wearied
he proceeded in searcR of solid and
liquid refreshments. That the first
place he struck was saloon into which
he went for drink and that whilst
taking his drink he saw five fights.
He beat a iiasty retreat from the saloon
and on proceedin. up town in search
of something to eat he saw two more
fights in progress, making seven fights
in less tlran fifteen minutes. Does the
Downing law have this effect. or is 1t
pure cussedness? Call out the feather
bed militia.

store Of Walker & Moore was closed on

the L. &. circuit court Of st. Louis,
brought by parties of Chicago. This
was a surprise not only to the gentle
men Immediately interested, but was
the greatest surprise Of tte season to
their many friends and customers.
One of the Gueer features in regard to
this attachment is the fact that, as We
understand it, the resident attorney
employed by the Chicago firm admits
that there is nS grounds for the attach
ment. Walker & Moore have by. their
gentlemanly manners and fair dealing
made a host Of friends i'm this county.
and being high-strung honorable gem

the attaching creditors that 1t Is d cost

The Ste. Genevieve Fair-PIdy think

The Ste Genevieve Fair Play thinks
and rightly, we take it-that it is
not the number of candidates from
this section of the State that always
defeats our attempts to secure place
upon the State ticket; but the instruc-
ting Of our delegates and sending them
to the convention with their hands
tied and their mouths sealed as with
a plaster. The FaH-Ptay says, ''iet
there be no quarrels nLr recriminations
between our candidates." but "let us,
above all things, steer clear Of the fatal
reef upon which We have So often
wrecked ourselves, the plan of making
mere ''sticks" and parrots of our dele.
gates by instructing them how to vote,
from Governor OIL down to the foot of
the list" This il sensible talk, and
we boEe when the lime for the local
meetings comes round, every Logger
with favorite may be given the cold
sisoyIder and made to stand aside.

it will earnestly advocate the principles of
the Democracy and support its chosen stand

course will find 1t always the same safe and
trustworthy counsellor. Being an important
factor in the work of political regeneration,
it will expect to be necessary auxiliary to
every political speaker, and to every Demo-
cratic club in the Mississippi Valley.
TIE Forty-eighth congress will be a most
important body, and the long session must
develop in large degree the issues upon which
the presidential canvass of 1884 will be con-
Quoted. the revision OF the tariff On a ba-
