Two Brothers Murdered.

HOLDEN. Mo, Feb. 25.-John and
William Ayler, brothers, were murdered
at home. nine miles north of King
vile. They lived alone, both be-
ing unmarried, and the crime was not
discovered until this morning, when a
neighbor went to the house to transact
some business. The bodies of the broth
ers were found in the front room
chopped literally to pieces. A bloody
axe, with which the deed was probably
done, was found i'll the room. The
brothers We're we'll off, and those who
committed the murder were doubtless
inspired by robbery. The brothers were
both strong, robust men, which leads tC
the belief that more than one person was
involved in the murder. There is nc
clew to the murderers.

ment and the negro escaped.
Half an hour later when Mr.. and Mrs.

residence of H. G. Clark, where they
had been attending an entertainment,
they were confronted by negro high
wayman, who held dirk in one hand
and a revolver in the other. Hold up
your hands,, commanded the highway
man. Being unarmed, Taylor obeyed
the injunction and the thief went
through his pockets. After securing all
the booty he could find in Mr. Taylor's
pockets, the highwayman turned his at
tention to Mrs. Taylor. Having secured
all the valuables of his victims, he step
ped behind them and with drawn re-
volver marched them to lonely spot.

CLEANLINESS.

Cleanliness is conductive to
health. 1t is necessary condition
to a strong and vigorous, body; not
only is this true of the body, but
is equally so Of a city. 1t is sur
prisins how much negligence there
is in this respect. One would be
surprised at the condition Of many
Of the back door yards both in the
business and residence portions Of
the city. if an investigation were
made. Often the front yards pre-
sent an attractive appearance and
are quite inviting, but they are no
index of what may be the condi-
ton of the back door yards. 1t is
no credit to many of our thrifty
houseowners that such a state OF
things exists. The filth in some
yards is unbearable; filthy water
and scraps from the table are al
lowed to accumulate around the
back door, till they become a
nuisance. Not only are they so
to the family, but they are equally
SO to their neighbors, who perhaps
keep a clean yard. There is no
occasion for this negligence; it
costs no more to be clean than it
does to live in filth and dirt. The
poor can have clean yards just as
easily as the rich. 1t costs com
paratively nothing to have clean
yards. Nothing is so pretty in the
city as little cottage in a clean
yard, surrounded, it may be, by
trees and shrubbery. Even if the
yard is not large enough for trees
little grass and a few flowers
would adorn it; but cleanliness
should be the main feature. The
uncleanliness of back door yard>
is the cause of a great deal Of sick
ness; it could not be otherwise
the constant breathing OF the witt
ated air from so much filth is a
Notwithstanding element. Our
housewives should take some
pride in keeping clean yard
there is no reason why the front
yard should be clean and have a
pleasant appearance while the
back yard would nauseate you
were you to go into it. Old bones
potato peelings, old fruit cans, the
table leavings of all kinds, lie in a
disgraceful heap. These places
are legion; every city is conIami-
mated with them. Our citizens
should feel pride enough in theil
homes to make them both beauti-
full and cleanly.
Springtime is favorable to a gen
eral clean UP. Refuse matter OF
every kind should be removed be-
fore the hot summer days come
If the whole city is cleaned and
garnlshed, so to speak, there will
be no pestllential vapors tc
breathe, and the general health
fulness will not be impaired
Clean up.

DEN ,t.a &c MISERY.

The democrats in congress are
not in a jubilant frame of mind.
When the session began last De
cember, four months ago, they
carried themselves with the feel
ing that they would have walk
over. as it were, in the coming
canvass. They had an overwhelm-
ing victory, had 40 majority in
the house, and they felt that the
whole earth belonged to them.
Their mission was to repeal the
Mckinley tariff act and establish
free coinage of silver. They feel
now that they can do neither the
one nor the other. The tariff part
of their contract is in abeyance,
but the free silver end Of the job
seems to have gone into thin air.
The vote OH the silver bill shows
that the democrats are not only
scarce, but badly so. They are
all mixed. In catering to the
farmers alliance and all of the
other outside shows in politics.
they seem to have undertaken
more than they can carry out.
How to place their allies, and car
ry out their promise on silver, is
what now >disturbs their equan-
unity. The troublesome republi-
cans in congress are very unkind
in refusing to get them out OF
their NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

This office has been favored with a COM
plete catalogue and price list of the Ever
green Nurseries, OF Evergreen, Wis. This
nursery is well known throughout the west,
having been many years established. The
proprietor, Mr.. Geo. Pnney, has probably
distributed more evergreens and forest trees
through this state than any other man in
the country. Although he raises and sells
millions of forest trees annually, his spe
calty is evergreens. He plants hundreds of
pounds of the seeds every year, and now
has nearly three hundred varieties on his
lists, fully equal the largest nurseries
i'll Europe, which supply the nurseries and
parks of royalty. OF course. having such a
large trade and growing them in such large
quantities, he is able to give better prices
for the same quality of trees than any other
nurseryman in the country. 1t is well
worth the while of any person to send for
his lists.

a preliminary spin in Oregon al

EIGHTEEN years ago the demo-
Gratis got possession of the jackson
county government, receiving it
from the republicans without a
dollar OF Indebtedness and in a
fourishing condition. Immedi-
ately the county began running in
debt and the accumulation now
reaches total of more than $780,
600 and the interest on that sum
exceeds the amount annually spent
by the democrats to improve the
roads of the county. Democratic
officials must have been having a
fat time down in jackson county.

THE interest bearing debt of the
United States is rapidly melting
away. AT the beginning of March,
the amount of the debt on which
interest is paid was $5S5,O2S,O9O
or only about 50 per capita. On
most of this debit but 4 per cent
interest is paid, while some of il
draws but 2 per cent. On no
other people in the world is the
burden of taxation so light.

ACCORDING to Dunn's Review of
Trade for the past week the prices
of nearly all commodities in gen
eral use have declined fully IS
per cent. since this time a year
ago. AS the democrats have al
ways claimed that the Mckinley
tariff would increase prices be-
yond the means of workingmen
this little statement will serve as
a most effective republican argu-
ment. Since wages remain the
same and prices are lower surely
the tariff has not injured the wage
Garner at any rate.
