THOMAS MALoNEY DEAD. Mr..
Thomas Maloney, who is remem-
bered as a business man Of Mineral
Point in ante.war days, died at
Webb City, Mo-, on the 18th inst.
Mr.. Maloney was among the first to
enlist at the opening of the war,
going out in Co. |, ID Wis, with
which he served until the great
struggle ended. About 1865 he
removed with his family to Des.
Moines, Iowa, and was engaged in
business there for several years.
Always of speculative character,
with a strong penchant for mining
enterprises, he was among the first
to be attracted 10 the mineral fields
of southwest Missouri when their
development began With varying
success but dauntless perseverance
he has operated in that locality for
the last dozen years or more, and at
the time OF his death was reapiug
the reward Of his enterprise from a
good mine. His excellent widow

OUR worthy representative in the

thy of his constituents. His native
honesty impelled him to vote
with republicans once against use
lessly publishing city charters in
the official paper, at the expense of

more, because Boss Wall has de-
clared that democrats "must stand
together" on this matter, else the
"fattening of partisan press" may
be interrupted.

The TRIBUNE's assertion that real
estate was on the boom in Mineral
Point is verified 10y the fact that for
a house and lot which a citizen paid
$500 for less than year and half
ago, an offer of $500 was made
recently. The property is located
in the southeastern part of the city.
All the improvements made since
the purchase was to paint the house
and repair the shauty or summer
cook house. Furthey evidence of
increasing demand for Mineral
Point real estate is seen in the good
price al whioh the brick building
occupied by win Collins as a saloon
has recently changed hands. The
exact figure cannot be learned, but
that it is an advance OF 20 per cent.
over what it would bring a year ago
is known. Parties are seeking to
buy half of the Tamblin block, oc-
cupied by Chandler's dry goods
store, and signify readiness to take
it at an advance Of ut least 30 per
cent. over what it could be had for
only few months ago.

POSTMASTER GENERAL WANA
MAKER recently decided that post.
masters who fail to notify publish
ers when subscribers move away or
fail to take their papers from the
office, shall be responsible for the
subscription. This coupled with
the fact that any one subscribing
for a newspaper or lifting it out Of
the office whether subscribed for or
not, and refusing to pay for the
same is guilty before the law of
theft, makes it a serious matter to
trihe with publisher. The deci-
sion of the Postmaster General will
save many publishers hundreds Of
dollars in the year, as no postmaster
will so far neglect his duty as to
make himself liable for delinquent
subscribers.

most Significant action regarding this Is
the recent organization of the Society

The Democratic National Committee

and place for holding the National
Convention. and much interest will, of
course. centre in the result. The balloting
will be as eagerly watched, as was that
last week, when Minneapolis was chosen
by the Republicans. There is much
active rivalry between the large cities
for the honor of the Democratic conven-
