We Must Redeem Our Pledges.

The augusta Gtronicse hits the nail
squarely on The head when it says that
the continuances of the Democrats in
power beyond the present administra-
ton depends upon their honest COM
pliance with the party's pledges
As our contemporary puts it. the
Democratic party triumphed in the re-
cent election because of its pledges to
the people. It is now for the first
time in thirty years in supreme con-
troll Of the government. II its promis-
e are not made good the people will
hold the party responsible, and the
marty viii hold the administration to a
sk4ct account. The national contest

Normal Training School.

A Normal Training School will be
opened Monday, May Shh, 1898, in the
Public School Building at Ironton, Mo.
This school is especially designed for
teachers, and those who contemplate
teaching and who desire to prepare
themselves for thorough work in the
schoolroom. want to enroll in this
school, a teacher for every dis
trict in the county, want to do this
because l feel that / know just what
you need, and believe / can send you
away a stronger and better equipped
teacher.
The course will include everything
required by law to be taught in the
public schools of Missouri, and is open
for all who may desire to take it.
Every teacher should earnestly and
honestly strive for two or three
years certificate under the amended
school law, and there are very few
country teachers who can pass the ex-
animation necessary to attain this
desideratum without some training
other than that proposed by the four
weeks institute. Now / propose to
give you just such work as will enable
you to reach the goal. Will you profit
by the hint, and the opportunity thus
placed before you?
This school will continue in session
Just four weeks, and be followed i'm
mediately by the regular County In
stitute for licensing teachers, thus
throwing the examinations late in june
and bringing them under the amended
school law, thereby making second
grade certificates good for two years.
Do not forget the date, and let me hear
from you Immediately.

Nothing could be truer than these
timely words of admonition. They
come from an old and influential DEM
ocratic newspaper which did more than
any other agency to save the tenth
district from being captured by the
thirdsparty.
The Chronicles views are exactly in
line with the Constitutions repeated
utterances. The administration must
fully redeem the promises of our
platform, and carry out the financial
and tariff reforms to which it stands
pledged. 1t must do this or stand be-
fore the Democratic party and the peo-
pie in the position of a man who has
violated his solemn promise to his
neighbors. Broken pledges discredit
an indivual, and it is the same way
with an administration.
This is the situation. 1t is all nom
sense to talk about the speedy dissolu-
ton of the Republican party. That
party will lose or gain strength in
proportion to our fidelity or lack of
fidelity to our platform. A trimming,
hedging policy on the part of the new
administration in financial and tariff
matters would rehabilitate Republic
cans or build up the party.-Attanta

Farmers and the Home Market.

Statistics show that we are purchas-
ing foreign farm products to the extent
of 81, 900. 900 per week.
Evidently, it is not true that we are
suffering from overproduction in every
line of agriculture. Last year for in
stance, we purchased from Canada
$3.50, 900 worth of eggs, on which there
was heavy duty. This makes it
plain that there is no overproduction
Of eggs in this country.
We import live animals, breadstuffs,
wool, hay, hops, meat, rice, fax seed,
tobacco, beans, peas, potatoes, and even
cotton.
The suggestion that our farmers find
it more profitable to devote their labor
to other things, and thus make it nee
essary to import foreign farm products.
will not be accepted by those who are
familiar with the situation. The COM
plant is made that the American
farmers are not prospecting, and from
every quarter over-production is the
cause assigned for agricultural depres-
sion.
This may be true, in regard to few
articles, but the fact that foreign farm
ers send us 81, 900, 900 worth of their
products every week shows that we are
still far behind the demands Of the con-
sumers in our home markets.
The evil all grows out Of our unequal
taxes and our tariff and financial sys-
TENS. The reconciliation Of silver
and the establishment of an expansive
currency, such as would result from
the restoration of state banks, would
bring general prosperity, and the re-
form of the tariff, the imposition of a
graded income tax and an economical
administration would speedily bring
the farmers to the front, and give trade
and industry tremendous impetus.
But so long as the country remains
without an adequate circulating medi-
um the Cry of overproduction will be
heard in the land, and the producing
classes will lose both energy and hope.
This is the situation in a nutshell.

REMNANTS OF THE THIRD PARTY

Among the members Of the late
ly adjourned legislature who are
bobbing up as candidates for re-
election, there is total absence of
one of the political elements which
had quite sprinkling of members
in the house, but all ofwhom seems
to have taken in the situation and
recognize the fact that the race
of this political party has been run
in this state, and that in the future
they will cut little or no figure in
any part of the state. This is the
Peoples party. Mr.. Petit who
was the leader in the house, was re-
districted out of existence, and his
colleague, Mr.. Birkhead, should
he ever be a candidate for re-elec-
ton, would come out as Democrat.
The Others seeing that they would
not have so much as ghost of a
show of being elected, will not be
candidates, and it is more than
probable that the representation of
this party will be cut down to two
or three in the next house while
the Democrats will have over
eighty. The Republicans will
elect Senator'S in six districts,
while Dmeocrats will he elected in
the remaining thirty-two, leaving
the Peoples party out in that
branch.-Frankfort Correspondent
