The Parson Thinks the Police Sup
irentendenta Slippery Sam.

NEW YORK, Nov. Ex-senator
Lexow, chairman OF the investi-
eating committee, has expressed
surprise at statements purported
to have been made by the junior
counsel of the committee, that a
reorganization Of the police system
would be the result of the commit
tee investigation. Mr.. Lexow re-
marked that the testimony was
not all in yet and that the COM
mittee had not decided what legis-
lation to recommend. DR.. Park,
hurst made at Lakewood these re-
marks about Supt. Byrnes: My ex-
perience with the police depart
ment and more especially with
Supt. Byrnes during the past three
years has proved to me that as
moral factor no man more
perfectly or more ingeniously
than he embodies the spirit which
makes the police department the
vicious and consciencesless thing
that it is. He has been executive
head of the department during
most of that time, and it was un-
der him that it has reached the
acme of undiscipline and knavery
that has been demonstrated to
characterize it. Byrne has done
just enough good work to show
his capacity, but has been suffi-
GENTLY charred in the exercise OF
that capacity to convict himself
either of Indifference or criminal
ity."
When asked if he believed
Supt. Byrnes would resign from
the head of the police department.
DIR. Parkhurst said: mo, not un-
til he is compelled to do So"

HOME MEN.

AS the fall season is now opening the
INTELLIGENCER wishes to remind Lex
ingtonians of their duty to their home
merchants. There is no city of its size
in Missouri where the wants of its
citizens can be SO easily supplied and
there is no class of men who are more
worthy of patronage than the Lexington
merchants. by some unwise economy
in the realm of mind some of our citi-
zens have made too much of a practice
Of going to the city to buy their mer-
chandise.
There are professional men here who
would consider it the gressest insult il
some merchant should send away for
one of their profession to perform
some service for him, and yet this same
lawyer, or doctor, or whatever he may
be, when in need of something for him
self or family will get on the train and
go to Kansas City for it.
There are ladies here who will go to
Kansas City to buy their goods who
would spurn the merchant should he
refuse to give her husband his business.
There are young men here, who
expect to make this their home, YET
who rejoice to hear of an excursion
rate on the railroad that they may 60
to the city to purchase their clothing.

The Next Congressman.

Brunswicker: "The republicans have
nominated Col. X. T. Van Horn for
congress at Kansas City. He has been
there befOre-was there from '65 to II
and again from 81 to '83. He is now
editor Of the Journal and is the man
who IA counted into Office by Count
Rodman in 1868 over General Shields
who was elected. This was the same
election in which William Warner was
counted into the Office of circuit at
tOrney by the self-same Rodman, then
the secretary Of state, who got his
title OF Count by his skill in counting
republicans into Office and counting
democrats out. He and Warner and
Van Horn all belonged 10 the same
gang of Office thieves. But Count
Rodman has made his final account,
Bill Warner is q dead duck politically,
and VanHorn is now seventy years old.
Both Warner and Van Horn ran best
when they had Count ROdman to help
them, but the further they get away
from ROdman and his stove in which
he burnt democratic ballots, the poorer
the ace they make. Tarsney will be
the next congressman from Kansas
City by a decided majority"
Boonville Advertiser: 1.-The Kansas
City congressional district has an able
representative in John C.. Tarsney,
and the entire democracy of the state
is pleased to know that he has been re-
nominated. He will be elected by one
Of the largest majorities he ever re-
ceived."
Marshall Democrat News: 'COl. X.
T.. Van Horn, editOr-in-chief of the
Kansas City Journal, will be defeated
at the November election by Hon. John
C. Tarsney in the congressional race
by 1000 votes"
Clinton Democrat: ssVan Horn, the
republican candidate for congress in
the Fifth district, is the wOrst pill in
the box. He was elected to congress
when only republicans were allowed to
vote, and If Ne had the power every
democrat would again be DISTINGUISHED.
John Tarsney may have his faults, but
he il 0 thousand times better than Van
Horn. A democrat who would vote for
Van Horn should have his head shaved
and be drummed out Of camp"

A Kansas City Wrath.

From the st. Louis Republic, October I'd.
If there is one republican In Missouri
who profited more than another by the
usufruct of test oaths and disfranchise'
ment, that one is Colonel X. L. Nar
Horn, editor of the Kansas City
journal.
Col. Van Horn has just been nomi.
mated for congress by his party in the
Fifth district and the fact is a reminder
of the days when he and his associates
limited popular suffrage in this state
and counted themseOes into office.
Beginning with the close of the war,
Colonel Van Horn became a congress
sional candidate from Kansas City and
for three terms he sat in congress as
the representative of a district when
had not elected him.
He must run now on his merits.
There are no more test Oaths; there is
no more republican dictation, no more
counting of votes not cast. Nothing is
left to Coloael VanHOrn but a square
stand up contest over the natlona'
issues, and if he survives the struggle
1t will be an endless wonder. lie
represents nothing now but the past:
He stands for all that is intolerant and
d~ictatorial in a party which well-nigh
crushed the people Of this state when
it had a chance and only awaits an
opportunity to renew its tyranny. lie
was consenting to all the infamous acts
which characterized the domination o
re~publicanism in Missouri between
1865 and 1870 and accepted the fruits,
Colonel Van Horn will not be elected
to congress this year. Count Rodman'
Judge Drake and the rest are dead.

The readers OF this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreadful
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its strges, and that Is catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure Is b only positive
cure now known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh, being q constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundation OF the disease
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing Its work. The proprietors

trade at home and the cases alluded &c
are the exception rather than the rule,
but they are exceptions that should
not exist.
There are many reasons why Lex.
ington merchants should have your
trade. Among others are these
Every dollar spent at home makes
home property more valuable. You
know our merchants and you can de-
pend upon their word. They cannot
afford to deceive you because they
expect to hold your trade. You are
not a transient customer like you would
be considered away from home. Our
merchants spend their money here and
they deserve II patronage because
they are of us, for us and with us.
They are our associates and their inter-
ests are ours.
The INTELLIGENCRE asks all who
contemplate making a purchase away
from home to look through the home
houses and see if the prices and the
goods are not as good If not better than
what they could get elsewhere.
Be a credit to your town. Have some
local patronage. First do your duty
and your neighbor will profit by your
example.
Remember that example is better
than precept, and practice higher than
preaching. DO your duty to your
home merchants and then in return
they will do theirs toward you.
