The better roads question is becom,
ing living issue, and one man is max.
ing his canvas for governor on thi:
very question. His name is Gibson
May he sling all the mud out of the
roads before the close of the campaign.

Although Dalton had a majority ol
delegates under the rules laid down by
the central committee to govern the
precinct mass meetings, the delegates
to the state convention were instructed
to vote for Stone for governor.-Cen-
teryille Reformer.
OF course w. Pope Yeaman will be
the democratic nominee for governor.
The democratic party realizes that it
will take the eloquence of DIR. Yeaman
to down Warner at the November cleo
ton. These are cold facts that must
not be forgotten.-Rocheport CONNER
cial.
Stone, Dalton, Claycomb, Judge
Gibson and Rev. DR.. Yeaman are each
making lively canvass for the nomi-
nation for governor on the democratic
ticket. Either of them can knock out
Major Warner. There will be no Count
Rodman to count him In this time
Memphis Democrat.
The Saline County Progress thinks
the selection of DIR. Yeaman for gov
ernor of Missouri would have purify
ing effect on the politics of the state. The
Progress is probably right, but il
doesn't take into consideration the con-
taminating effect that such an Office
might have on the parson. There Is
always two sides to question.-Slater
Rustler.
Judge Gibson is gaining steadily in
all parts of the state. His canvass is
highly satisfactory and his prospects
are good. Major Warner fears Gibson
and has just returned from the east,
where he has been laying in supply
of ammunition. He will need every
dollar that can be drawn from his par
ty. Then Gibson will beat him-In-
dependence Progress.
We are Il better friend OF Colonel
Stone than some of his injudicious en-
thusiasts, as his nomination will come,
if it comes at all, from the support OF
those whose friendship we have been
endeavoring to cultivate. But if these
inprudent Stone advocates succeed in
creating ill-feeling between them, il
can never be accomplished. We have
never wavered in our support fol
Stone.-Butler Democrat
Richard M. Dalton, of Rails county,
candidate for governor of Missouri on
the democratic ticket, paid our city a
passing call on his way to Cabool last
Friday. Mr.. Dalton is fine farmer
appearing gentlemsn, and will nc
doubt make good governor if elected.
He Is an alliance man. He was indorsed
by the democratic convention which
was held in this city.-Mountain Grove
Prospect.
1t is the opinion of the Moon that
s'Farmer" Dalton will be the nominee
of the democratic party for governor Of
Missouri. The state has never had 8
farmer governor (since early history
and the agriculturalists demand recog.
nition. Each of the aspirants for
gubernatorial honors are in every par.
ticular worthy the trust, and this paper
has no fight to make against either o
them.-Odessa Moon.
There is only one man in the state
who can out distance the field in tn.
first heat against the entries, and tha
is Alex. NJ. Dockery. Should he enter
the race at least three of the candidates
would withdraw before scoring COM
menced and the remaining two would
drop out before the first quarter posi-
in the half-mile heat was reached. Blu
Dockery can hardly be spared out o
congress at this particular time.-Ore.

From the best information we car
get from the county districts Dalton
Stone and Yeaman will have delegate;
in the county convention, and neither
candidate will have enough votes t,
send solid delegation to the state
convention, but no one can tell now
what will ensue after the county con
vention meets. But this much we de-
know, that Yeaman will. have NOR,
votes in the county meeting than the
Fulton politicians now concede him.

Dalton and Stone are making tn,
most active canvass, with Gibson
close follower. Lieutenant Governor
Claycomb is industriously making
very quiet, digniiied and his friends be
lieve most effective campaign. He i
antagonizing no rival candidate, il
simply running on his record and hi
merits. HIS friends are no doubt cor
rect in assuming that very large per
centage of this quiet, noncommitta
vote will naturally gravitate towar'
Mr.. Claycomb.-Carthage Democrat
Hon. w. j. Stone made short ad
dress Monday after the convention to
large number of his friends in tn
court yard. 1t was in his usual strictl
democratic style-eloquent, forcible
logical and aggressive. rhe distin
guished gentleman does not mine
matters when he is laying down hi
platform or arraigning the republican
party for its shortcomings. He is n
compromise man, is not running a
a farmer or theologian, but is running
as democrat, and fearlessly tightin.
for democratic principles and purposes
claiming that they are eternal and eve
