Who is Geo. W. Rupe?

Ed. GRApHIc;-The many friends
of Mr.. Geo. W. Rupe in Morrow
township have insisted that he be-
come a candidate for County
Judge at Large. knowing him
as we do, we feel that this impor-
tant office could not be placed in
better or safer hands.
But hequestion, Who is George
W. Rupe? may be asked by many
OF your readers. May we, who
have known him intimately for
twelve years, answer the question? :?
MIR. Rupe, then young man,
came into this neighborbood
:welve Years ago with his ak on
his shoulder. He at once OBJ
tained employment in the tie
woods. His industry and quiet.
gentlemanly disposition attracted
attention. He saved his money
and invested it carefully, and now
owns one of the best farms on
Spring Creek. He is recognized
here and in Klrksville, as one of
the best business men in the
county, and enjoys the trust and
confidence of all Morrow town.
ship Is proud of him, because he
has hewn his way from the tie
woods to his present position, and
his work Is an example OF what
can be accomplished in our country
by energy, industry and honesty.
We feel that Adair county conld
do no better than to honor him
with the Office for which he an.
nounces this week; and, if he is
nominated and elected, there will |
never be cause for our people to
regret their action. !

Some of our exchanges
speak of Hon. T. nj. Harrington
as excellent congressional timber.
There seems to be a differ
ence of opinion among the men,
bers of the T. & L. U. in regard to
putting a ticket IN the field.
--kirksville needs a better
water supply, and the people are
rspidly coming to the conclusion
that one must be obtained in some
manner. The water-works scheme
is meeting with a very favorable
reception.

The suppression of this article
will be one blow at our much

Halt a million dollars is to
be invested in the erection of tin
plate mill near Pittsburg, if the
Mckinley tariff bill passes. 1t
will be one of the largest in the
world. j. Davis Lewis, formerly a
tin plate manufacturer in Wales,
Is at the head of the projected en-
terprise. Free sites, coupled with
cash gifts running all the way up
to $4,000, have been offered by
rival Localities to secure the new
plant.
The Mckinley tariff bill
passed the house last week by a
strict party vote. What its fate
in the Senate will be cannot be
accurately predicted, but it is quite
probable that it will also pass that
body without any material change,
by a party vote. The bill does
not give universal satisfaction.
and it is impossible to frame a
tariff bill that would. Our inter-
ests are SO diversified that any
tariff measure would cause objec-
tion from some quarter. The
bill has been shaped by an able
committee, and has been thorough
ly discussed in the House, and
the Senate will hardly presume to
alter it very greatly. The coun-
try desires an end of tariff changes
and the passage of this bill will
fix the rate of duties until after
the next presidential election. If
1t!is followed by the passage of
silver bill, the policy of the coun-
try will be fixed for a number of
years to come, and business men
can make their calculations upon
a certain basis and a long period |
OF prosperity will ensue. This
will give the next Congress to the
Republican party, and a victory
in 1892.

CONGRESSMAN MILLS.
He Puts in Bid for All the Important
Places

WASHINGTON, November 24th.-Repre-
sentative Roger @. Mills announces that he
will retire from Congress at the close of his
next term unless he is elected to succeed
Senator Coke. He was interviewed on the
next House.
Twill the Farmers Alliance candidates
elected in the South act with the Demo-
crats?" he was asked.
Experience has taught me TO rely only
on the straight-out nominees OF the party.
In Arkansas, Featherstone said on the
stump that he was as good Democrat as
Gate and he asked for Democratic votes,
but if he had been elected it would have
been by the Republicans. 1t was the same
way with Langley. who ran against Brock
inridge. He was billed to go into the Re-
publican camp. In Kansas and Nebraska,
where the Republicans were defeated,
should say the Alliance men were Demo
Gratis. l cannot tell, therefore how those
members who have been elected by coali-
tons will act. In the South, however, the
great masses of the Alliance voters are
Democrats, and will not desert that party
The talk of the Alliance forming a third
party is absurd. We have heard talk OIL
this kind before, but when the great cam
paign comes the lines between the two par
ties are always tightly drawn"
VIII the democrats III tue next OOu'
gress attempt to legislate in accordance
with the principles of the Farmers ALI
ance2"
''The Democrats in the House in the
Fifty.second Congress will meet the de-
mand for more money by passing the sill
yer free coinage bill, which the Senate may
or may not agree to, and which, if it ever
reaches the White House, will probably be
vetoed by President Harrison. That is all
the legislation which we shall attempt in
that line 1t is idle to talk of the sub
treasury bill. The Democratic party car
never, as long as it exists, which will be q:
long as il is true TO strict constructions
ideas, indorse such an demonstrations
scheme. Tilden, in his letter to the Iro
quois Club, stated the principle of the Dem
ocratic party in one sentence: The Genera
Government should do nothing for the
State which the State can do for itself, anC
no government should do anything for ar
individual which he can do for himself.
We ought never to get away from that doc
trine. The Democratic party believes thai
a citizen is able to take care of himself and
run his own finances. We propose to lei
him do il, and keep as far away from pa
telnalizing as possible
Mills is evidently a candidate for every
thing that is in sight. He wants the
Speakelship or the Craftsmanship Of the
Ways and Means Committee, and after tha
he will take the Texas Senatorship If be
can get it, but be will not get the Speaker,
ship. He is too out spoken in his free
trade utterances to please the majority o.
the Democrats.

WASHINGTON, November 24th.- The
United States Minister to China has in
formed the Department of State that the
Canton dollars and parts of dollars made
by order of the late Viceroy have been
made a legal tender all over China. He
says this, unless tempered with, will IN
doubtedly work a financial revolution in
China, and may possibly result in the es-
tablishment of national bank and become
the basis of paper currency.
Death by Electricity Legal.
WASHINGTON, November 24th.-The Su-
preme Court of the United States has af-
firmed the judgment of the Supreme Court
of the State of New York in the case of
Shibuya Jugiro, the Japanese murderer,
condemned to be executed by electricity.
The Court merely held the case was en-
tirely similar to that of Kemmler.
More Mariners Needed.
WASHINGTON, November 24th.-The an
nual report of Colonel Hebbs, command
ing the Marine Corps, suggests an appro-
priatien for 200 or 800 more privates, as the

LAND DECISIONS.
One in Favor of the Southern Pacific
Another Against.

WASHINGTON, November 24th.-Secretary
Noble has granted the Southern Pacific
Railroad Company's application for a revo
cation of the departmental decision OF Feb
ruary %, 1889, in its suit against James
Mackel, who applied to make a timber
culture entry for land in the Los Angeles
california; district. II was claimed BY
him that the land in question was ex-
eepted from the railroad company's grant
by reason of the fact that it was embraced
within the limits of Jurupa Rancho at the
date of the grant to the railroad.
The Secretary took an opposite view, and
set aside the Commissioner decision
which was in favor of Maekel, at the same
time awarding the land to the railroad
company.
In the case of the Southern Pacific vs.
John A. Barry, another contest from the
Los Angeles land district, it was held by
the Secretary that Barry's settlement on
the land in controversy being subsequent
to the revocation of the indemnity with
drawal, and prior in point of time to it:
selection by the railroad company, he he;
the priority of right to said land, and thi:
right will be sustained, provided the
claimant be able to show that he has sub
seauently acted in good faith and in com,
pliance with the provisions of the pre-emp
ton law
