MOherIY'S Rig Fire.


The fire that visited Moberly
Monday night was the most dis.
astrous in the history of the city.
The buildings from Fifth street
east to the alley were a total loss
and the Hall block was badly dam
aged. The fire, which was thought
to be the work of an incendiary,
originated in the rear of Baker,
Walden & Co.'s furniture store.
The loss is estimated to be $751;
900. The property was partially
covered by insurance.
The knights of Pythias Hall,
Excelsior Business College, Adams
Drug Store, Bergstresser & Hutchin-
sons Grocery, Baker, Walden &
Co.'s Furniture Establishment,
Suppe & Schwab's Ninety Cent
Store, and Prof. Gilpin's Moberly
School of Music were destroyed.
Besides these the warehouse back
of Sackett's saloon, on Fourth
street, was a total loss with contents.
/ The Senate Saloon, owned by E.
E. Sackett, was damaged to the
amount of $500.
All the property destroyed was
in the business part of the city. 1t
was the block known as the old
Academy of Music block.
Mexico is indeed sorry to learn
of her sister city's big loss.

Isn't it about time to brace up?
Ifyou do not take care you will get
into such a way of complaining
about bad times and tight money
that you will never get over it.
Is business dull? Well, are you
not making it duller by wearing a
long face and talking about it? If
you are asked how your busine SIS
is and you reply that it is ''rotten"
you help to make it more rotten.
Just try the other track awhile and
see if it does not pay. When a man
puts on a long face and asks if you
are doing anything, just rub your
hands, wear a smile and say:
"Well, | guess the worst IS over. 1t
seems to be picking up with me-"
and you will see that it does pick
up. And when it picks up with
you it will begin to pick up all
around.
Wear a smile on your face, pick
up your feet and hustle. The scare
is over.

where, cares to 60 into a store where
the proprietor is constantly talking
about bad business and wearing a
look as if he going to the dogs.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox was about right
when she said, "Laugh and the
world laughs with you; cry and you
cry alone" The man who bores
his customers with doleful talk will
oon have good cause to do more of
it, while the man who looks fate in
the face and stares it out of coun-
tenance is the fellow that is going to
get the trade.
Let everybody "brace up" and
see if it does not do a world of good
to the whole business portion of the
city.
Things are not half SO bad as
they look, and if you grasp with
firm hand the nettle, danger, you
will pluck the flower, safety.

MEXICO, Mo-, August 29.-Should
the Wilson Repeal Bill pass the SEN
ate and do away with the purchas-
ing clause of the much-objected-to
Sherman law, the effect is simply to
deprive the silver miners of a mar
ket for that metal four and one-half
million ounces per month and do
away with whatever incidental pro-
lection resulted from the clause. For
the whole nation all silver previous
ly coined and the certificates retain
the legal tender qualities, and au-
thorities say this amounts to six
hundred million and is all in circu-
lation so far as the action of the
government can put any money into
circulation. Money only circulates
among the people when they have
something to give for it land a small
amount may complete money trans
actions. For example, the old story
of the silver dollar that paid one
hundred dollars of debts and got
back to the original holder in a short

"Georgia's coast swept by the

lives lost near Savannah" This was

wires brought into the office of the
Republic this morning. Corrobora.
ton of these brief bulletins came
quickly afterward from the Repub-
lies special correspondents at New
York, Washington, Atlanta, Ga,
and other points in the east and
south.
All were coupled with the addi-
tional information that wires were
all down in the storm-swept territory
and that it was impossible to obtain
particulars as to the points devasta-
ted, the extent of the storm, or even
an approximate list Of the losses,
both to property and to life.
From the meager bulletins receiv-
ed, however, it seems that Savan-
nah, Ga, got the brunt of a cyclone
which swept with resistless fury up
the Atlantic coast, dealing death
and destruction wherever it touched.
The storm was characterized as
worse and more far-reaching in its
dire effects than the historic cyclone
of a dozen years ago which wrought
such indescribable destruction along
the southern Atlantic coast.
The cyclone probably is of the
West India origin, as were the sew
eral recent storms that devastated
the eastern coast of this country and
which last Wednesday night ano
Thursday morning caused such ar
awful loss of life off New Jersey

THE Kansas City Times makes
the following pertinent remarks:
The Democratic party is now in
power. 1t is the party of the people.
1t has made pledges to the people of
the whole country and not to par
ticular sections alone, and it pro-
poses to redeem them, and does not
care to listen to the counsels OF
those who teach doctrines Of section
alism and who would try to make
the people believe that the interests
of one class of citizens are opposed
to those OF another that there should
be city against country, farmer
against manufacturer and capitalist
against laborer. The time for this
sort of doctrine has gone by. 1t is
| antiquated. 1t has been condemned
by the sentiment and patriotism OF
the American people and it will not
be tolerated. Those who attempt to
teach resistance to law, sectional
| strife or class antagonism, will dis
cover that they have no place either
in the Democratic, Republican or
Populist parties. They will find
themselves kicked out by all three
parties and classified where they be-
long-namely, among Anarchists
and the enemies Of society, and will
be dealt with accordingly. The
Times differs from the doctrines Of
the Populists, but it nevertheless be,
~lieves that the vast majority Of that
party are honest and patriotic il
opinion and sentiment and that they
will not much longer countenanct
the leadership of demagogues anc
strife-makers.

COMPROMISE In THE SENATE.
Free Silver Men Propose to Prevent
a Vote On the Direct Issue.

WASHINGTON, &C., Augustus
1t is regarded as almost certain that
the senate would pass a repeal bill if
it could be brought to a vote. There
are four or five senators who have
been classed all along as free silver
men, who say they will support I'M
conditional repeal; that rather than
vote against it when it stands alone,
they will vote for it. These would
give unconditional repeal a safe ma
jority.
Senators Teller, Stewart, Vest,
Cockrell, Butler and other free sill
yer men acknowledge that their only
hope now lies in the rules which
make it possible for them to defeat
a vote.
The chances seem about even
that a direct vote cannot be secured
upon the unconditional repeal in
the Senate and it is two to one that
a compromise will be effected where.
by another silver law will take the
place of the present one.
