Gold Bearing QutrtZ.

DIR. Newman, of Coffman p. O., Ste.
Genevieve county, and DR.. Clark, of
Gount's Store, were down Tuesday and
Wednesday looking after their interests
in the recently discovered mines of gold
bearing quartz situated IL miles south
of this place on the lands of Blaylock
and Meyers. The land on which the
mine is located lies along the line be-
tween this county and Bollinger coun-
ty, the boulders from which specimens
of the quartz have been chipped are
about 500 yards across the line in Boil
linger county. There is no mistake
about the quality of the quartz obtain
ed, it is gold bearing and runs as high
as $500 to the ton. Analysis of the
quartz was made in Chicago and in or
der that there might be no doubt about
the matter DR.. Clark made an analysis
himself and obtained button of virgin
gold that indicated IS ounces to the
ton. The gold bearing quartz has also
been found about two miles distant
from the place named above thus show
ing that the era of the gold field is
probably quite extensive. The service
of Atty j. c. Noell were procured
Wednesday and lease of the mines
was made TO Drs. Clark and Newman
by Meyers, the owner OF the land on
which it is situated. Just i'm what
manner the gentlemen interested will
undertake to develop the mines we
have not learned. Much interest is
taken here in the discovery and the
hope is universally expressed that it
may prove veritable bonanza.-Per-

De Soto NeaUs: "A crazy man has
been wandering through the streets Of
our city in the last week. Last Friday
he got out on the main track and by
giving tie signal to stop used by rail
road men, he succeeded in stopping the
Arcadia. After the motion of the train
was stopped lie ran forward and took
a reserved seat on the pilot, from which
he was removed by engineer Paul. 1t
is verS common for relatives of crazy
people to claim that they are perfectly
harmless; and it is almost as common
for them, sooner or later, to prove to
their over confident relatives, ty MUIR
dering several innocent persons, that
they are the very reverse. The safety
and welfare of the community demand
that the Insane shall be taken care of,
not permitted to wander whittier so

No more pointed illustration of the
utter reeklessness of Congress in pass
ing private pension bills could be given
than is presented in the recent veto by
the President of "A bill granting pen
sion to Charles Z. Estey. The Presi-
dent returned it to Congress with a
veto because precisely the same bill,
granting precisely the same pension 10
the same person was passed in 1886
and approved on the Sth Of July of that
year, and Estey has since then been on
the pension rolls. Notwithstanding
the fact that more private pension bills
have been approved by President
Cleveland than were approved by any
other Executive, he is constantly as.
sailed for vetoing pension bills passed
by wholesale, as rule, without any
consideration whatever, and often the
creation of fraud. In no single instance
has a serious attempt been made to
pass any vetoed private pension bill
over the veto, although most of them
have originally passed by unanimous
vote in both houses. Is it not time,
now that the President is no longer an
immediate factor in politics, to confess
the obvious truth that his pension
vetoes have been among the most pa.
triotic features of his administration?

The so-called Union Labor Party of
Missouri had regular cat-and-dog time
at Sedalia last Friday. The delegates
from ST. Louis got irt to wrangle with
the country members, and tist-and-
skull fight was averted only by the
sheriff, who was called In before the
racket eliminated. Then they busted
into two conventiOns-the ST. Louis
men, headed by the NeD Order editor,
going to thems elves, and the country
delegations holding a meeting Of their
own. 1t takes Republican Doodle to

Jefferson Democrat: 1.-THE favolite
Republican campaign picture repre-

tors of American workmeu. We have
lately been studying the copies of this
picture, which are so tastefully framed
in the offices of Recorder Coleman and
Collector Brack mann, and we find that
it is very suggestive and fairly repre-
sents the party. There is Harrison on
one side and Morton on tue other, both
dressed in latest style and finest i'm
ported goods, while the workman lies
surrounded by his implements of in
dustry, bareheaded, with his shirt-tail
out, pants six inches too short. aid no

ton the Republican party has got the
American workman in, and it is the
condition it wants TO protect him in"

i PRESIDENT HARRISON, AND SPEAKEE
REED.-The Washington correspondent OF
the Richmond Dispatch, under date of the
10Th instant says
ga story is floating around Washington
in regard to red hot interview one day this
week between President Harrison and
Speaker Reed. The latter, it seems, went
to the White House to request the appoint
ment of one of his friends to office. The
place wanted was in Speaker Reeds own
district. The Speaker went on to recon-
mend quite highly the applicant. The
President listened attentively, and then in
quired if the Maine statesman had any pa
pers in the case.
Mr.. Reed said that he had, and, holding
up package, said: "These are:the papers,"
The President reached out for the papers,
saying: 81 never make an appointment I'M
less l examine in papers carefully and
satisfy myself as to the applicants charac-
ter and fitness" Mr.. Reed, Just as Mr..
Harrison reached for the papers, exclaimed:
"1'll be - if you dol" and turned on
his big No. II shoes and left the room in
an indignant frame of mind.
The speaker has an idea that his position
entities him to some influence, and he does
not propose to have even the President of
the United States subjecting him to the in.
dignities which Mr.. Harrison has put upon
many public men in the past few months
Mr.. Reed has won his honors in spite of
the BIaines and Harrisons, and he asks no
odds of anybody in the party. He is very
independent sort of man."
