RIVER SpRNGs, Mo. March 4, 1894.
MY DEAR "OLD LINER. Yours, under date
Of Feb. 2Slh. by chance reached me, aud whilst
feel like considerations for information and
light relative to the immediate cause of the
wholesale removals in our county by His Ex-
cellency, Governor McIane, think the re-
mote cause that of degeneration. over thir-
ty years ago, His Honor, Gov sIcLane, gave
Mr.. Jas. T. NJ Rnley very strong letter Of
endorsement for an office of honor aud trust;
but to-day he is turned down rs unfit or I'M
worthy the trust imposed on him two years
since by Gov hamilton Has he dcgenera-
ted :? Mr.. |. r. MattingIy was one ofthe Cen
trail Committee st. Mary's county lie de-
generated and was removed TO make room for
Mr. BalIenger, who never wished the Office
and did no: ask for it.
The LIST district Of our county was denied
representation in the Convention which sent
delegates TO nominate The Governor Of our
State. Poor st. lnigoes', do not grieve over
this 1t is but the result of degeneratioa
Again, oh, ye small men of st. Mary's
Weep not over your removal. You were ola
short lived generation. You only leave your
country for your eountry's good. You, too,
have degenerated
But some may ask, Why were some of the
small meu reinstated2 Well, / will explain
rs well as can. They have crncble atAn-
napolis with which men are refined, the
worthy swim on top, but the degenerated go
under.
learn there has been branch Office eslab-
lished 10 st. Mhry's which is to be run by the
Central Committee Of the county In all
doubtful cases they are required to consult
with the only man who can concentrate the
Democratic Party. ! here ask for information.
Is it possible from the above showing for the
Central Committee Of our county, or some of
them at least, to have so degenerated rs to I'M
fit them for official duty?
Respectfully,
II. P. BLACKSTONE, ~ D.

diving by an expert, and the third INSTALL
ment of "On Land and Sea, or California in

II. Themes, the author of that popular novel
of the day, The Belle of Australia, The Gold
Hunters Of Australia, Life in the East
indies. and other well-known works. In
this chapter the vessel arrives at Monterey,
and vivid description of the town is given
as it existed at the time, with glance at
some noted persons, among them Mr.. Tbos.
o Larkin, aiterward the American consul.
This On Land and Sea grows more humor-
Gus and interesting as it progresses and
promises to be the authors best work
There is not tedious line in the three parts
that have appeared, and no doubt all will
pan out as well. Old residents of California
should read this story, as it is full of inter-

The senatorial question has quoted
down like the waves of the mighty deep
after a storm. Does this county intend
to quietly submit to the dictations Of
ambitious Dallas men always? Does
she propose to acknowledge her inieri-
GRITTY and be the lick-spittle without an
effort to at least be awarded a decent
hearing. We have been flying the kite
of Dallas county long enough. We
have worn the yoke peacefully up to
this year. and now let us measure swords
with them, and at least be manly enough
to demand our rights inch by inch.
Every dog should have his day. The
Dallas dogs have had their days, and
used this county as stepping-stone to
office without smile of recognition. 1t
is time to rebel, to put on the war paint,
to go bravely to battle and stick to the
fight until they recognize our just rights.
We should have the Senator, and by the
eternal gods of war, let's have him or
kick like wild bay Texas steers Kauf-
man Sun.
