come to the conclusion that it don't
pay to vote the Republican, ticket.
Eight hundred and thirtv-eipbt
votes we're polled this year against
800 last year.
The Democrats who tied on to tine
independent ticket thinking the Re-;
puhlicans would vote for them. find,
they were mistaken.
II. L. Bai,d, councilman elect from
the 9th ward, wishes to return thanks
to the Mexico String Band for a much
appreciated serenade.
We heard an independent Demo-
crat election day remark s'some one
Is going to be surprised tonight"
Night came. Who was surprised?
Geo. Robertson, chairman of city
committee, and B. F. Dobyns secre-
tary, deserve great credit for the able
manner in which they managed the
campaign.
Baird is the hero of the hour. He
overcome a majority of 43 and was
elected by six votes. He richly de-
served the serenade the boys gave
him.
Last year the LEDGER remarked
This year we have a republican
mayor and one republican council
man. Next year things will not b,
thusIy."
Last year the boys thought it wa
all o.. X. to burn a man in effigy
This year all jokes are severed,
kicked at by some of the defeated
candidates.
Such Democrats as H. Ricketts,
and w. F. Reed and others we coul,
name. are the kind to stick to til,
party and see that it booms, enthuse

Democrats of Mexico know that th
way to victory IN Mexico, Andrai

United States is via the straigt
ticket. They believe in going to til
polls without a lead pencil. At la:
they are correct.

THE SECOND CONVENTION.

II SECOND CONVENTION.
Immediately after the above con-
vention a mass convention was held ia
the court house in which a dozen or
4. q RspubIicaas took psrt. Harry
Day was made aAaifmsr I. Robin
son secretary. This convention held
that the first one vas not called reg
ularly. W. H. Day, A. NJ. Trimble
and S. H. Moore (Filley men) were
elected to go to Sedalia. OF course
only one set Of delegates will get in
at Sedalia. If Filley rules at Sedalia
the delegates of this convention will
get in, II not, the others will. Go
it, boys; we like it. %
CONTEMPORARIES.
There were many vacant chairs.
j. b. James makes a good chair
man.
The usual cauensing was done in
the hall.
Filley appears to be the bone of
contention.
Fhe feeling between the two fac
lions is very bitter.
The leaders Of the two gangs are
very evenly matched.
Each faction should, by all means,
at once start a newspaper. I.
There we're hardly enough present
to fill out the committees.
A great many people of all parties
were present to see a circus.
At Sedalia it will be settled which
was the circus and which the side
show. = rT r
We do not know that any one at
tended and took part in both conven-
tons.
The LEDGER vas the only newspa-
per which took any notes of the con-
vention.
Only thirty-two Republicans atten-
ded the convention. Five of these
were colored.
Some of our best Republicans are
out of politics on account of the
trouble in the party
l.. N. Hathaway and w. H. Day
represent the two factions of the Re-
publican party of Audrain.
A few Greenbackers were present
to see whether there were fewer Be
publicans than Greenbackers.
There appeared to be only one
Filley man in the silk stocking con-
yention. and he did not feel we'll.
The west end Of the county must
be solidly democratic. No republic
cans showed up from thas secfion.
The Filley men had no shew il the
Mexico convention. They report
they are still alive and will be al
Sedaiia. J ~ DTS =
All the talk about the Republicaa
party Of Audrain growing appears
to be true. 1t is evidently growing
