This Looks Like Business.

The federal election law will occupy
the attention of congress for some time
to come and in the end it will be re-
pealed. This is move every Demo-
crat can most heartily endorse, and it
should be followed by other wholesome
legislation in the same direction. The
states are able to manage their own
elections without the aid of deputy
United States marshals or soldiers.
The federal election law was one of
the many infamies perpetrated by the
Republican party when it ruled the
country with an iron hand and sought
by the aid OF hirelings to perpetuate
itself in power. All such legislation
is mlschievous and contrary to the
organic system of this government.
The Democratic party has always
been faithful in its defense of the rights
of the people. 1t believes in govern

The situation confronting the Demo-
cratic party is one of the strangest ev-
er witnessed in political history. With
John Sherman and Tom Reed as lead
ers for a Democratic Admins tration
on the floor of the House and Senate;
Stewart, Teller and Wolcot as leaders
for a Democratic opposition; with
Democrats opposing the repeal of the
Federal election laws by helping Re-
publicans to filibuster, and with talk
of hanging up tariff reform in the SEN
ate; with Republicans still filling
nearly all the important offices under a
Democratic administration; with mil
liOnaire appointments to places of trust
in our diplomatic delegation, without
any preparation for the same, and with
no party service to recommend the APP
pointment: Is it any wonder that the
air is filled with suspicion that the
party has been betrayed into the hands
OF. its enemies, and that universal dis
trust prevails? Let Democrats get
together! Let a caucus be held, and a
policy outlined, before it is too late.
Let the Democratic party declare it.

ment by the people, and not govern
ment greater than the power that
created it. And now that Democracy
is firmly entrenched in power, it is to
be hoped that every member of con-
gress who owes his election to Demo
cratic votes will faithfully apply him
self to the repeal of all obnoxious
laws and an enforcement of those ideas
of public economy and simplicity that
have rendered the Democratic party
the party of the people.
It is no easy task to undo the vicious
legislation of the past thirty years. but
the Democratic party was entrusted
with power for this purpose, and if any
Democratic member of congress is too
much engrossed with other business to
render efficient service in this great
cause let him resign, because it will be
a pleasant task to fill his place with
some one who is willing to serve the
people.
The federal judiciary should be at
tackled with a meat-axe and its scope
of power limited within the jurisdiction
where it originally existed. And while
on this subject it would be we'll enough
to inquire if a. federal Judge has any
more right to life tenure of Office than
a president or a congressman; and if it
would not be we'll enough to elect them
and thus place them under some obi
cations to the people whose servants
they are supposed to be.
There is plenty of hard work ahead
of the Democrats, but they were elected
to work. The assault upon the feder-
al election law is a good beginning and
the Democrats are now masters of the
situation. In the lower house of con-
gress they have presiding officer in
whom they may depend under all Cir
cumstances. In this they are very
fortunate, because man of less firm
ness would prove serious detriment
just now. Mr.. Crisp has fully dem
onstrated his ability on many trying
occasions, and in addition to his superb
qualifications as presiding officer he
is thoroughly in sympathy with the
Democratic idea of legislation.
Let the good work proceed. "Get
down to business" should be the mot
to of every Democrat. Hew, cut and
slash until the last obnoxious law
threatening the liberty of the people
has been repealed. Jefferson City

WALTER l.. MALONE, founder of the
jackson Cash Book, and one of the
brightest newspaper men ever engaged
in the work in the Southeast, died at
Fort Worth, Texas, last Sunday, after
a weeks sickness, aged So years. At
the time of his death, he was manag-
ing editor and principal owner of the
daily Gazette, of that city, and he was
a recognized political power in the
Lone Star state. He wassborn in Mo-
bile, learned the trade of a printer
there, went through the war as a
soldier of the Confederacy; after the
war he worked at his trade, taught
school and travelled over considerable
portion of the United States. In 1871,
he located at Jackson, Mo-, and secur-
ing the Wallace Gruelle newspaper
plant, then at Clarkton, moved it to
jackson and started the Cash Book,
which he successfully conducted for
about five years, when he went to Dali
las, Texas. He was married in 1873
to most estimable lady from Ohio and
she and two children survive him. Wal
ter Malone was an honor to his pro-
fession and man worthy of. esteem.
He supported widowed mother and
two sisters from boyhood and their
welfare was his greatest care. One of
his sisters married Clarence Lee,
another bright Southeast Missouri boy,
but only lived few years. Lee was
for several years located at Fort Worth
and was recognized as a first-class
newspaper man.-DunGlt,a Democrat.

As to One Thomas Jefferson.

Professor Goodwin Smith has been
writing political history of this coun-
try that is calculated to attract atten-
ton, not because of any intrinsic merit
in the book, but because of the lumin-
Gus exposition it affords us of the way
in which our theory of government
is regarded, and the estimate placed
upon the historic characters OF our
country, by the ultra Tory element of
both England and America. Washing
toms generalship was not of a charact-
er to meet the approval of Professor
Smith, and in fact it failed of appreci-
alton by the Tories of his day. We
infer, from the learned historian, that
he was vulgar enough to allow himself
to be clicked" so often that the British
left the country to avoid the bore of
being compelled to repeat the opera
ton oyer and over again. For getting
us rid of the British on any terms he
has been held in grateful remembrance
by his admiring countrymen for over a
hundred years. How profound that
gratitude would have become, had he
been able to free us forever from the
whole Tory contingent, can now be
only be a matter of speculation. 1t is
quite likely the feelings we entertain
for him now would be feeble compared
with the homage he would have re-
received under such circumstances.
Prof. Smith finds one thing in Washing
tons character to commend, and that is,
his supposed leaning towards the aris-
tocracy of his day. 1t is very soothing
to the feelings of the Churchills,
Cavendishes, Astors, Vanderbilts, and
others of the Anglo-Saxon Tory aris-
tocracy, to think that they have some
