We call attention to a paragraph from the

complimentary to Lexington. We hope it Is
an exaggerated statement.

Odessa DeInOcrat:-'' We think that we
cln say without being amehable TO the charge
OF ~sgotisn that the Democrat has done faith
full work for the democratic party from start
to finish in the campaign OF 1888" Not .
doubt of ii. Brother Ewing. the Democrat has
done good work, and il will do 1t again. 1t
Is built that way.
BoonvIile Advertiser such q Wholesale
voting OF negroes and such shameless intImi-
dation of voters has seldom been seen in
Boonville. There is but little doubt that
forty or more illegal votes were cast In this
township, largely by negroes. Intimidation
was the rule and not the exception, The
most fragrant iastan ce of this kind was the
manner In which old ''Uncle Wash" was
treated by a black importation from Arkan-
sas claiming to be a minister of the gospel.
The president has told an intimate friend
that be will sell Oak View, giving possession
| shortly after the 4th OF March. Mr.. and Mrs,
Cleveland won Id then go to Europe to spend

dent will practice law In the city OF New
| York. Colonel Lamont refuses to say what
he has decided upon but does not deny The
story that he will enter q large insurance firm
in the metropolis. 1t IS worthy Of note in
this connection to see how general and genu-
inc ia the sorrow over the departure of tht
| Young mistress Of the white house.
Richmond ConserYator; The democratic
rally ut Lexington last Friday night was very
poorly attended. Ray county furnishing the
major part OF the crowd and the Lexington
democratic lambeau club furnishing a mag
niicent display Of fireworks. Alter TIT
| parade most OF the Richmond crowd return
ed hsme. not waiting to hear the speaking
The boys who attended had 3 good time, but
did not like the idea Of paying the Lexington
| liyerymen TWENTY-FIVE cents each for the priv
ilege Of hitcning their horses for tifteeI
minutes to Il fence in the back lot to the barr
with nothing to eat. They all thought 1t
great outrage and u swindle, but after being
trapped had to grin and bear IT.. They will
know better the next time and make inquiry
before hand what the charges will be fol
hitching their horses 10 q fence in the back lot
Among other interviews printed 6y the Sc
Louis Republic, last Wednesday, on the sam
subject, is this ore with a gentleman who re
sides here:--Ed. b. Farley, q commercial
traveller, who makes his home ut Lexington
Lafayette county, was at the Laclede las
night. He said THE democrats In tn
country call The Republic Old Honesty. The.
have confidence In the best democratic pape
ever published in St.. Louis. and they ar
with it in its fight Against the saloon men VIII
h ave been so foolish as to leave their bushes
to take a hand IN politics. The people Of th
country could hold their noses and pass th
dOggeries by AZ long as They attended to thei
own business, but if they propose to take tn
TeiDs of the state government in their han !
and run that, too, why we will see what W,
can do with them. 1 would not favor pro
hibition, but | am in favor of high license ant
II that won't regulate oficlous saloon keep
ers, then | am for giving them q straight dos,
of prohibition. | think the democratic part
should go slow on this question and try higI
license first before they talk about prohibi
ton. The sentiment of the people in rh
northern and central part of the state is wit
the Republic in this Gsht. ] hear it spoke
Of everywhere. 1t is u popular movement.
