The same paper says further of the
situation The Globe-Democrat is
opposing the knights Of Labor, and
uses arguments that are unanswerable.
The Republicans position is hard to
define, as it seems to be good Lord
and good devil with it, while the
Post-Dispatch is the strikers little dog
in this fight. Last year it was Mr..
Gould's pup. TIE Sedalia papers
have no opinion on the subject, at
least they have expressed none, not
even when their city is being run by
q lot OF men who do not know why
they are on a strike, only that they
are out because their master has or.
dered them out.

You cannot afford to waste time In
experimenting when your lungs are IN

first, only a cold. Do not let any dealer
impose upon you with some cheap imi-
tation of Or. Kings New Discovery for
consumption, coughs and colds, but be
sure you get the genuine. Because he
can make more profit he can tell you he
has something just as good, or Just the
same. DON'T be deceived, but insist
upon getting DIR. Kings New Discovery,

President Cleveland has restored
UnIted States Attorney Benton, of Mis-
souri,, to the position from which he was
suspended for pernlcious political activ-
ity. The correspondence in the case has
been made public. 1t includes a letter
from Mr.. Benton to the attorney general
in which he admits that he made pollti-
cal speeches, but aeterts that such
speeches did not intertt. si'h his Off
cial duties. This letter was leterred to
the president, who replied to it in per.
son. His reply is an admission that
Benton has the beat of the argument and
an apology for the executive act which
suspended him from the functions of his
office. In conclusion President Cleve-
land rescinds the order of Suspension
and restores Mr.. Benton to full official
standing. Senator Vest could not have
asked for more complete vindication
of his client or more heartfelt confess
sion of the error of presidential ways

a gentleman just from Richmond
gives new account of the recent cam-
paign in Virginia, and according to him
Malone managed to deceive the demo-
cracy by a skilifully managed still hunt.
He says Malone had his scouts all over
the state and they reported 10 htm at
the CLOSE OF the canvass that the demo-
Gratis were confdea. Of their success. On
Friday before the election the negro
leaders in every precinct in the state
got their orders, which was to see that
the full republican vote was polled on
election day, but not to
begin to vote before O'clock,
so late that if the democrats did take
the alarm they could not get their vote
out in time to save the state. These
orders we're obeyed to the letter. In the
third district in particular the colored
vote was fully as heavy as in 1884, when
Blsine was running for president, nn6
in every district it was the same. The
result was that, between over-confidence
and dislike os the present administra--
tion, the democrats have but three mem
bers of congress out of the ten elected.

Commissioner Atkins, TOUR.

Commissioner Atkins, of the Indian
bureau, who has been absent for some
weeks on an extended tour of the Indi-
an agencies, is expected back in Wash
lngton by the end of next week. Moth
ing can be done until his return in the
matter of a hearing upon the petition of
the western merchants for the removal
of the Indian supply depot from New
York to some ole of the western cities.
The general business of the Indian
bureau will occupy the attention of
Commissioner Atkins for some little time
after his return, but it is believed will
be in such a condition as to permit him
to give the question of removal early at
tention. Chicago, as well as ST. Louis,
is making o vigorous effort not only to
persuade the commissioner that it
would be best for the Interests OF the
government to have the depot removed
TO central point in the west, bnt also
that Chicago is altogether the most
available point for Its location.

exercises should exclude elementary
company dralls and the time of the

form or dress for field service is con.
cerned, it would be of advantage for the
authorities OF each state to prescribe a
| simple, plain but serviceable fatigue un-
| jlform for all it's troops, to which the
companies might gradually conform
within limited time, say one year.
This Is not intended to interfere with

full dress uniform as it may have selected
for wear on reviews, parades and other
occasions of pure ceremony. Obsolete
arms and ammunition in the hands OF
state troops should be replaced by i'm.

the hanus Of the regular army, and suit

stances the development of extreme
smartness in drill involves neglect o
some OF the most important and solid
/ duties of soldiers training.

A Ifnnd Cnse Decided.

The first comptrel.ss.: .sse treasury
has rendered decision which will be
of interest to the holders Of government
bonds. There has just been presented
for redemption ss5o5 per cent bond
issued under the act of March 3a. 1864 S54;. !,
which provides that bonds of that issue
shall be payable forty years after date,
with the option of the government of
redemption at any time after the expira--
tion of two years. The bond in question
was embraced in the call made in 1879,
and hos just been presented with all the
coupons detached. The comptroller de-
cides that as the nominal status of the
unmatured detached coupons is greater
than the face valns of the bonds itself
the bond cannot be redeemed until such
coupons shall have been presented.

The story of the great storm is coming
in from all quarters and the details COZ
firm the previous impression that the
disturbance extended over wide area
of northwest country. 1t swept over
Dakota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Ne
braska. Kansas, Wyoming and Colorado
and probably ragged south of any of the
points indicated. From the reports re.
ceived it appears that the storm center
was south OF the latitude OF Yankton and
that it followed the usual storm
course, from the west to the east.
East of the Mississippl river the storm
began with rain, which was congealed
by the cold wave OF Wednesday night
and over all the northwest states be-
tween the Missouri and the lake, a
deposit Of snow has been left. deeply
drifted by afnrious wind. In Dakota,

Professor Foster, a Burlington, Iowa,
meteorologlist, enjoys the distinction of
having predicted the blizzard which has
just swept across the territories and
states of the northwest. Flushed With
success he has again put forth q
prophecy which contains dismal out
look for the immediate future. He says
From December to II will occur
some of the most destructive winter
storms OF recent years. Tne storm force
VIII be greater than that which caused
the great storms of October 9end Is, and
many lives and much property can be
saved from loss by making preparations
for this nncommonly great storm period
These storms will be OF much the same
nature as were the terrible blizzards oi
last January 3, z and 10, which were
predicted by US long before their occur
| renee, but the storm influence will be
very mDch greater during the storm
period OF next December.
AS Professor Foster seems to have an
advantage in the department of storm
warnings, it will be well to treat his
representation with the respect which
is their due. He has Just hit the mai
square on the head. He says his Decem-
ber storm will affect Illinois, Iowa
Kansas and Nebraska. Nothing is giyer
relative to Dakota's fate, but the corner
which lies in the angle formed by Ne
braska and Iowa should keep it's snow
shoes handy. Professor Foster goes OF
to remark:
About December 4th is likely to com
mence mild, light rain with heavy fogs
and on the 9th one of the worst storms
of the year will set IN, reaching the
] ninety first meridian near December 9th
A great electric ground current vii
sweep around the west and south sidet
of the storms on December 9Th similar
to but greater than that remarkable
current of January 3D., which tele-
| grsphers will remember almost totally
disabled the telegraph through

December 9th these storms viii
have reached the eastern states, and
will there be very heavy. At the same
timea cold wave will spread over these
western states, while the high winds
will make the drifting SHOWS very

/. newed on this meredian with less force

afflicted with phthisic, also diabetes; the
pains were almost uncomfortable and
