Would it crack your memory tc
think of man who has had the
informal Endorsement of dozen
times that number of states?
The President went "a fish.
ing Decoration Day last year; this
year he went to New York to re.
vi.w the G. A. r. But then Buf
falo Bill rode a prancing black
horse in the procession, and this
may have had much to do with at
tracing the President thither. II
may be however that he has learn
ed something since last year.
"A correspondent writing to
the Linn Greek, (Mo) Reveille says
'Look at the change; Four years
ago mule colts at weaving time were
selling from $50 to $50; now they
are down to $40 to S25. Calves were
worth fromSl0 to So per head;
now 50 to S., and every thing else
IN proportion" Is it strange that
the democrats are going to
continue the cry of four years ago;
Give us a change"
The Globe Democrat still
continues to hammer away at
Blaine, ard the burden of its Ia
Dor at the present time is to show
that it ould be unwise to give
him the nomination at Chicago.
The circulation of the Globe
Democrat is larger in Missouri,
Texas and Kansas than in any
other states; and, it is signif-
cant fact that these states are for
Blaine, first, last and all the time,
if he could be persuaded to accept
the domination.
Many Of the soundest and
most intelligent Democrats of the
country are expressing willing
ness to see Missouri go Republi-
can in the coming campaign. They
are tired Of the Democratic rule

the first state in the Union. This
is no idle talk, but facts, and there
are thousands of Democrats in the
state who will vote the Democrat
lc National ticket, that viii repu-
diate Bourbonism in Missouri.

most caused a panic in the Demo-
cratic caucus, considering the
mills bill, last Saturday night.
British manufacturers have been
lJubilant over the prospects of the
passage Of the bill; but the at
itude of Clardy and O'Neill has
given other Democrats courage,
and by the time they get through
with the bill, Mr.. Mills will hard
ly be able to recognize his own
offspring.
In n letter to the elitor of
the New York Tribune, dated at
Paris May 18th. Mr.. Blaine again
declines to be candidate for the
Presidential nomination of the
Republican party. Few men
would have the courage to refuse
SO great IN honor that is to be
had, not for the asking, but for the
accepting This ends all doubt as
to Mr.. Blaine's candidacy, as he
has spoken positively. But as the
greatest citizen of the United
States, he with his millions of
supporters, will enter the cam
palgn with zeal and patriotic de-
yoton to principle that will in
sure a Republican victory in No
vember, whoever may be the nom
lnee OF the party.
Never send another dollar

Bleed that body by spending your
