ChaUncey |, EjIiev.

In rejoicing Owe the great victory
that has just been won in Missouri,
the fact should not be overlooked
that the campaign was fought upon
lines and policies laid down by
Chauncey l.. Filley, chairman Ct
the state Republican committee. At
the Excelsior Springs state conven-
ton Mr.. FilIcy stated that the ca N.
paign in Missouri this year would
not he a brass band campaign, and
hat the money for conducting it
was not Il mere promise, but was al.
ready in the treasury of the commit
tee. Of course, the victory as
shown Ivy the latest reports is far
greater than Mr., Filley or any
else expected in Missouri.
1t is well known, however, that
the Republicans were counting on
i've congressman from this state, and
mat the energies OF the state central
committee were directed to that par
tioular work. A campaign was never
fought in Missouri with less noise
and more effective work than the
one that has just closed. Mr., Fill.
ley has always opposed noisy, de-
mjnstrative campaigns. If the
Warner campaign had been under
his management the probabilities are
that the state would have been car.
RED for Warner two years ago.
rue proof of the pudding is the eat
ing thereof. The proper way to
conduct Il campaign is to win cleo.
tons, and it has becn clearly de-
monstratgd that the rigat kind of a
campaign was conducted in Mis-
souri, tins year.

nifty He represents in himself, in
his own training and experience, the

The Tribune notified the colored
citizen that he would have to go to
the Republicans for his appropria
ton for the Lincoln Institute in the
future. At that time our esteemed
contemporary did not know that the
Republicans would have the pleas
IRE this year of treating that insti-
tuition handsomely. We haven't
any doubt at all but that they will
appropriate 40 or $4,000 for this
institution. The Republicans are
glad of the opportunity that they
have to show the colored people that
if they we're in power they would
not only support Lincoln Institute
literally, but would do 50 and moi
brag about it every hour of thu
day thereafter.

There were four great surprises
in Missouri. First, the election of
ten congressman; next, the elecliSp
of The Republican state ticket:
next, the election of a majority Of
the Missouri legislature; aud next,
almost tying the state senate. No
living man on the face Of the earth
believed that that vas possible this
year, or that such a thing would
occur within the next ten years. 1t
seems that the unexpected has GER

From all sides it can be heard
shat the change will do good.
These expressions are INDUCED in
by many Democrats as well as Re.
publicans. In this age people are
beginning to realize that no state
belongs to one political party and
that the destinies of the nation do
not depend upon the election year
in year out of the same political
party. Missouri may he in the

The election of Charles i. VII
liams for sheriff of Cole County is Il
victory for an honest, hard working

made two years ago indicated his
strength, but nobody believed that
he could be elected sheriff of Cole

w twenty votes, When it is re
allied that the Democrats have al

Republican State Platform,

The Democratic party has been in
complete control of this Government
for a period of the past eighteen
months, and during hat time a cou
dition of affairs confronts the country
that beggars description and causes
the people to look to the future of our
nation with distrust and u~ndisguised
alarm. Therefore, the Republicans
of the State of Missouri present the
following declaration of principles;
We again declare for a system Of
protective duties, adjusted so that
every American resource can be devel'
oped by American labor, receiving
American wages; and we insist upon
a tariff that will accomplish these
ends. We have but to mention the
disastrous results that have followed
the mere n of free trade rs con-
elusive evidence of the Republican
policy in the past upon this subject.
We favor the enactment of laws that
will prohibit the immigration of an.
archists. and demand the strict on
forcement of the immigration laws.
We reaffirm the answering deyo-
ton Of Missouri Republicans to the SUI
preme sovereign right of every quail
fed voter, rich or poor. native q SSpr-
eign born, black " white, to east the
free ballot in public election, and t.
have that ballot counted as cast, and
we condemn all i~mpediments under
cover of law preventing qualified vot
ers from depositing their ballots and
having them counted.

We declare that the interests Of al
