of Have We Democratic Party?" Mir. Watterson says:
 ''Never did a great party go to the people under such hsndicsps as were carried by the democrats into the cam psign just ended. Hard times were bad enough, but they might have been par ried. Fractional fights among small claimants and rival place men were bad enough, but the parties have met and overcome such obstacles before now. But with the record of 'perfdy and dis honor,' as MT. Cleveland sptly described it, to face and defend in a hand to hand fight with the united republicans led by Harrison, Mckinley and Reed, was dis heartening for democrats to have to face: also the dull self suficiency and stolid indifference of the administration that made no sign, uttered no word and at least h the state of New York seemed to desire the defeat of the regular dem- ocrstic nominees. The battle for tariff reform will have to go down to the foot and take new start. The battle over the money issued will soon be upon us. We shall see whether there is democ- racy enough left of the true blue stripe to make great coat against all wealth CT or whether we must still wear the coat of mary colors, covering not the homogeneous party inspired by faith and trust, but a mere bundle of factions thrown together by the upheavsl of the times"

 vote. He takes his defeat phllosophi-
 cally, and Is of the opinion that the re-
 publican victory will prove a valuable
 lesson to Missouri democrats. | WOODLAND, Gal, Nov. 9-Samuel G. Worden, one of the several trainmen
