THE WEEKLY GR APH IC'
TIE. BLETTE, Proprietor
KrRKsyIILE, MISSOURI
FRIDAY, MAY 81, 1889.
Mr.. tlLLEY AND THE ST. LOUIS
POST OFFICE.

Hon. c. l. Filley has declared
that he prefers the postmastership
at st. Louis to any foreign ap-
pointment. Considering the great
work he has done for the Repub-
hcan party, a request that he be
appointed postmaster at st. Louis
would be a very rymodest one indeed.
Twice has he given Congress to
to the Republican party, and
every effort of his enemies to show
that he is not necessary to the
success of the Republican party
in ST. Louis and Missouri, has
been an additional evidence that
without him at the head of Mis-
sonri's organization, the cause IN
this state is next to hopeless.
The condition of the Republican
party in Missouri is peculiar, In
this, that it has no state organ,
that can be relied upon to repre-
sent it. 1t follows that an indl,
vidual must be selected for lead
ership and counsel. The Repub
lican party ofthe state looks to Mr.
Filley as this leader. He has
been identified with the Republl
can party from its incipiency. Tht
jibes of enemies have never, for al
instant, caused him to waver Il
the faith, nor has q few tLousan(
dollars caused him on the morning
preceding election to offer reas
on's why the Democratic candl
date for governor, or for any othe
Office, should receive the vote o
the Republican party.
The Rep ublican party of Mis-
souri, recognizes and Acknowledge
Dir. Filley as its leader. and de
slres his presence, counsel an
leadership in the campaigns Q
1890 and 80, which are to plac
the state in the front rank of pro
gress, and forever do away wit
the disgrace heaped upon it by
"Know-noth ing" governor and
Borubon Legislature. If the admin
istation would hold up the hand
of the Republican party in Mis-
souri,, and infuse new zeal an
courage into its working elements
Mr.. Filley will receive at its ham
the slight recognition sought b,
himself, and which the party, al
most as a unit, desires should b
given him.

PROPHECY UNSEALED.

The Rev. l.. B. Voolfolk d. d.
has published an elaborate chart
to which he adds a key in book
form, giving in a clear and concise
manner remarkably logical and
harmonious explanation of the
mysteries Of Daniel, Revelations
and the Minor Prophets. He
shows most ingeniously by his
reading of scripture that the end
Of the world is at hand, not such
an ending as we are wont to
Imagine in its destruction by fire
but by a wiping away of the old
order of things, and the establish
ment Of an universal republic,
having its center in Washington
City. 1t would be impossible in
a short article to give all the
writer's arguments in support of
his several theories, but we may
mention the Dragon as typifying
the money power, which, support
ing Prussia, the Beast of the Pit,
will within ten years establish al
imperialism over the whole of
Europe greater and stronger than
that Of Ancient Rome. This En-
pire once established will aim to
crush the United States, bat with
the help of Great Britain, we viii
be enabled to destroy the military
power OF Prussia and dictate the
governmental policy Of the world.
The book appeals to the logical
good sense of all students Of
history. DIR. Voolfolk has been
engaged on this work as a labor of
love for over thirty years, and be-
ing a deep and conscientious STU
dent, his researches have been
concentrated in this valuable and
interesting Chart and Key. DR..
Voolfolk has in contemplation
number of larger works elaborat-
ing and explaining his chart to
the fullest degree.
