THERE are in Missouri lis coun-
ties, having an aggregate population,
il 1880, of 2, 168, ,804 souls, being an
increase of 26 per cent, or little
over one-fourth, during the previous
decade. Even with this rate of in
crease, the population of the state
now should be 2,563,0 900. The in
crease is greater than that; but, even
with this rate, we should have in
Missouri at least 100000 voters.
The coming election will develop the
largest vote ever cast, and perhaps
more excitement than has before
been manifest. 1t behooves the
Democracy to be active and yigiiant
and to select only the very best men
for The different positions. Legisla-
ton for the next ten years must be
different from that of the last decade.
A higher order of intelligence than
that which has generally prevailed,
should be the standard. While many
counties have been we'll represented,
others have been indifferent as to the
character of their selections. By
every instinct ofipartY preservation
and safe legislation, The Democrats
should this year select only the very
best material in theii ranks. Men
of intelligence, talent and forco are
needed in the next general assembly
of Missouri, if they were ever need
ed in the history of the state. I'm
portant work is to be one.--4Mo6erly

NUMBER 4.


We had the pleasure of forming
the acquaintance last Friday week
of W. B. Plant, esq.,, editor and pro-
prietor of the Boonvllle Star, one of
the spiclest and newsiest papers in
Central Missouri. 1t was Mr.. Plants
first visit to Keytesville and as a
matter of course was so impressed
thereby that he devoted few para
graphs TO our burg on his return
home Come again, Brother Plant,
when the mud shall have been num-
bered With the things of the past and
We will try and make your visit more
pleasant. The following is what he
says of Keytesville and a few of her
profits:
Friday last we paid flying visit
to Keytesville, Charlton county. The
day was dismal and disagreeable
with rain, and We did not get to see
the town to any advantage. Keytes-
vile is fourishlng place and has a
fine local trade. While there we had
the pleasure of meeting Mr.. A. c.
Vandiver & Son, editors and propri-
etors of the COURIER, also of being
their guest and breaking bread with
them at their hospitable home. Mrs.
Vandiver, the mother of the junior
editor, is very lovable old lady,
and seems to take great pleasure in
her ''printer boys" as she express
es it.
We also had the pleasure of FORM
ing the acquaintance of Mr.. Earl B.
Kellogg, the county treasurer. He
is an exceedingly popular and intel
ligent young man, and enjoys the
confidence and respect of all the peo-
pie of his locality, irrespective of
party. He is renounced Democrat
and is seeking the nomination for
secretary of state. Mr.. Kellogg has
st.ong backing and good prospects.
There is only one thing in the way,
but it can be easily overlooked-Mr.
K. is bachelor, but promises in the
near future, especially if nominated
to remove that little obstacle.
We must not close without q word
for our Young friend and former
employe, Ollie Moore, who is now
foreman of the COURIER office. Char
iton county is his old stamping
ground, and he is very much liked
by his acquaintance in that section.
He wishes to be remembered to his
numerous Boonville friends.

Deadly Drawbacks.

Monday afternoon about half-past
II as the coal train was switching in
the yards at this place, Michael
Brown, q brakeman, who had only
been with the coal train couple of
months, undertook to make a coup
ling between two coal cars, when the
drawheads OF both of them gave
away, thereby letting the two cars
come together, catching Brown be-
tween the standard boxes about the
chest. He was taken to the depot
where medical assistance was sent
for and his mother, brother and sis
ter who live in Moberly telegraphed
to come up. They arrived on the
evening train and stayed with him
until 9:15, when he was taken to
Moberly, however, dying on the road
between here and there. He was
buried Wednesday afternoon in Mo.

A WONDERFUL CLocR.--Probably
the most wonderful clock ever heard
of is described by a Hindo Raiah as
belonging to the native princess uo-
per India. In front CT the clocks
disk was q gong. swung upon poles,

limbs. The pile was made up OF the
full number of parts for twelve per-.
feet bodies, but all lay heaped to-.
gether in seeming confusion. When.
ever the hands of the clock indicate
the hour of /, out from the pile
crawled just the number of parts to
form the frame Of one man, part
joining itself to part with quick
metallic click, and when completed
the figure sprang up, seized small
mallet, and walking up to the gong
struck one-the first hour. When 2
O'Clock came two men rose up and
did likewise; and so through all the
hours of the day, the number of fig
ures being the same as the number
of hour, till at noon and midnight
the entire heap sDrang up and march
ing to the gong, struck one after the
ether each his blow, making twelve

Miss Ellis is paramour of DIR.
Cox's son and is variety actress of

by bogus telegraph purporting to
be from the doctors son. On reach
ing Springfield Miss Ellis was shown
to close carriage occupied by DR..
Cox, who commenced TRADE OF
abuse upon the actress and broke Q

will recover the law will be allowed

lRo Mind iIensemaid.

\ quiet young man occupied the rear
hall bedroom on the third floor of the
orty- first street boarding. house. He
was pleasant, ingenious youth, and he
evidently had not been long in New
York, for he had q number of knick-
knacks with him and tried to make his
room look attractive. On his bureau
was the photograph of a very pretty
girl, tastefully framed, which he seemed
to regard with considerable affection.
Returning from business one evening he
noticed with much surprise that the
photograph was gone, and Immediately
proceeded in search of the chamber
maid for an explanation.
"Mary," he said, when the genius of
towels and bed-quilts appeared, what
have you done with the picture that al
ways stood on the bureau?"
:. '''Sure, and put it in yer trunk. Yell
find it in the second tray below THIN
fancy weskits"
"What did you do that forl" inquired
the boarder angrily.
"Oh, ye needn't git mad," she an
swered placidly; "in the last letter We
got yersilf and the gal had scrap, and l
thort if l put her pictur' away I'd be do
