Four years ago the Republicans
delighted in calling Grover Cleve-
land an accident and they ridiculed
him as a man of no special ability.
They have stopped ali that. We
will never hear that charge again.
Not even the most virulent and
prejudiced of Republican cam
paigners has dared to call in ques-
ton this time the eminent good
sense and practical ability which
the President has shown in the dis
charge of his great office. He has
been a very lucky accident indeed
to the country.

Republicans propose to spend
money like water in my district

the Second and Tenth. Now forall

Paris Liquor Troubles.

PARIS, Mo-, October 27.-The
grandjury, which has been in ses-
sion this week, have found Indict-
ments against all druggists here,
with n exception, for selling
liquors illegally. The p~roprietors
of a "blind tiger" which has been
running here for several months,
have been arrested and put in Jail.
A club which met in their bar-room,
and which was composed of & large
number of young men and boys,
has been broken up. Judge Bacon,
in opening Circuit Court here, said
he never saw 50 much drunkenness
in "a city that had no saloons.
Steps will be taken to more rigidly

or THE TICKET STRAIGHT.

On next Tuesday every voter in
Audrain county will have the op-
portunity of going to the polls and
voting the ticket OF his choice. Au-
drain is one of the banner Demo-
cratic counties in Missouri and it is
our earnest wish that every Demo-
crat within her borders will en-
brace this opportunity and cast his
vote for the ticket from Cleveland
to Constable. The enviable repu-
tation Audrain holds among the
counties for rolling up big MAORI
ties mustnot be lost-it cannot suf-
fer to be tempered with. The Re-
publicans are making every effort
to reduce the majority in Audrain
county and every Democrat should
makei il his special business to see
that they reckon without their host.
To do this it is only necessary for
Democrats to vote and vote the
ticket Just as it came out of the
printing press. They can make
no mistake by doing this, and the
old time majority for Cleveland,
Francis and Reform viii be forth.

THE Democratic party, its news
papers and its campaign orators
have been kind to Mr.. Benjamin
Harrison. They know he is a nice
man, a good moral man and all
that, and they have said SO. And
yet there was a man, Demo-
crat or Republican, within the last
twenty-five years who left the
Senate, when his term was out,
with less regret on the part of his
colleagues than this same Mr.. Har,
rison. Not n single member re-
GREETED his departure. He had not
made a warm friend on his own
nor on the Democratic side of the
Senate during his six years ser,
vice. He was n good man, but as
cold as an iceberg. He is the same
to-day.

nF. Paul Paauin, State Vet

letter containing a st00 cheek from
New York, II was ia payment of
a prize of that amount offered by
the Amer2eaa Veterinary Reeiew of
New York for the best article on
any important original research on
animal diseases in the United
States, Competition was open to
the whole country since about
twelve months, The merit of the
article Of DR., faquin was that it
was an entirely new work showing
the hitherto unknown nature of the
so-ealled mad-itch Of cattle, and
its close analogy 10 hydrophobia, SO
far as symptoms go. Bulletin 53
of the Missouri Agricultural Col
lege contains the substance of that
work which was widely distributed
and called for and which shows
means of protection.
The chairman of the judges of
the essays was DR.. Rush Shipper
Hinderoper, of Pennsylvania Uni
versity, Dean of the Philadelphia
Veterinary Medical School, Chief
editor of the Journal Of Compare

by Mr.. Paquin:

Democratic Doctrine.
Fam Vests Kansas irity Snaach


To-day We live under a govern
mental stimulus heretofore I'M
known to the people of the United
States. Manufactures have been
abnormally and unnaturally and
artitically fostered by a high pro-
tective tariff until the carrying
trade is dead and agriculture Ian
guishes almost unto death.
This tariff system, which was to
raise revenue for the government,
and at the same time 10 protect the
infant industries ofthe government,
has from the beginning fed upon
its own carcass, until to-day it
seeks to trample down everything
else in its way.
We pay to-day the foreigners
$4,000, 600 annually to carry our
agricultural products to foreign
markets. New England, which
was the mother of commerce, with
the Improvements of steel and iron
ships in England had driven the
wooden ships that were made in
Maine, Massachusetts and Rhode
Island out of the foreign carrying
trade, devoted their attention to
manufacture and the | dnavlgation
laws which are now upon the
statute books and a disgrace to the
statutes of this age were supplanted
to a large extent by the high pro.
tective tariff that takes from every
consumer s47.10 out of every 800
worth of goods purchased that
comes in through our ports.
We have established this system,
this high protective system, and
we have now s47.10 on every s10C
of imported goods, and what has
been the result on the agricultural
interests of the nation? 1t has
steadily declined and l saw in a pa.
per yesterday as l came on the
train to this where by the recent
census of Kansas, III neighborine
commonwealth, that price Of farms
had deprecated in one year $780,

Kansas were leaving their homes.
