UNITE.

We do not know that there is any
unusual reason 10 impress upon the
minds OF the democrats of Missouri the
necessity for an allegiance Of personal
quarrels and disagreements, aud Il
united effort tor the advancement OF the
party.
There are none OF those tactional
fights between individuals which go
often injure and even wreck parties.
On the contrary, there is all evident
general purpose to frown down any
%fomenting OF personal disputes, and
the man who raises them is likely to be-
the greatest sufferer.
There is only one place where we
see friction, and that is upon the ques-
ton of the regulation of the liquor
traffic. This should not be. Nine-tenths
of the democrats of the state are sufli-
GENTLY together upon the principles un-
DERIVING tins question To reach an
agreement. This they should, and, we
believe, will do. Where the danger
comes is that upon both sides there is
too much acrimOny in the discussion of
the matter. This is very much to be
deprecated. What is needed now is.
that all democrats shall be allies, not
enemies. Be polite, be kind, be con
siderate of each others feelings. We
cannot all see alike about such things.
And above all. remember that in Mis-
souri, we have a live, active, aggressive
political enemy, that keeps its ranks
closed, from the purist to the latitudin-
arian i'll morals aud habits, and that
will permit no side issue TO divert it
from its purpose to injure the demo-
cratic party.
Therefore, everywhere, we say to
democrats, uniteI
We see that a very acrimonious war
is being waged against Hon. VIM. FL.
Carter, by a newspaper in COldwater.
Kan. We do not desire to enter the
dispute, as we know but one party TO
it, but we do wish to say, in justice TO
q friend and all honorable ,high-minded
gentleman, that no man ever stood
higher in Lafayette county than did
Mr.. Carter. He was three times elect
ed to the Legislature, and represented
his people fearlessly, honestly, and
ably. That he suffered from q mental
malady, we know it was a great mis-
fortune while it lasted; but a merciful
Providence has restored him to health,
and it is entirely unnecessary to say a
word of the character of the attack
which would make allusion TO this dis
tressing circumstance. Mr.. Carter can
best answer such an assault by silence.
His pure, upright life is all answer 10
all calumAies.

Mr.. Blaine has written q letter to the
chairman OF the national republican
committee formally withdrawing his
name as a candidate for the republican
nomination for the presidency. 1t Is
variously construed by republicans
Most of them think II is a genuine and
sincere declination to become u candi-
date and some think that he has LET 90
merely to take d better hold. There IL
not much doubt in our mind that MIR
Blaine could have secured the nomina
tion il he had contested tor IL. He wac
no doubt quite US strong in his party
as in 1884, but we believe he would
have been weaker before the people.
lie may still be nominated. There
does not appear to be anything like a
