AFTER WHISKY DRUGGISTS.

President Brandenbergsr of the Missouri
Association Makes only One suggestion.
EXCELSIOR SPRINGS, Mo-, June 12.-In
his annual address President A. Brand
enberger, of the State Pharmaceutical
association, said that he would depart
from the usual custom of his predeces-
sors, who always had number of rec
concentrations to submit. He would
only offer one and that would go to
the cure of great evil. He would
recommend that every druggist con-
tribute certain sum to the state board
of pharmacy to be used in closing the
whisky selling drug stores of the state.
His theory was that if a man wanted
to sell whisky for any purpose other
than for medicinal use he should be in
a saloon and not in a drug store.

A Prospect That the Democratic State

ST. LOUIS, June 12.-There seems to
be strong probability that the state
democratic committee will he called
together again very shortly by Chair
man Maffitt, and that in response to
the demand Of the chairmen Of the

be called to discuss the money ques-
ton. Since the committee voted down

every section Of the state, and now

ers advocating the convention. The
understanding is that Chairman Farris,
of the Laclede county democratic COM
mittee, will show list in few days
indicating that more than a majority
of the county chairmen are in favor of
a convention. When these facts are
presented to Chairman Mafitt they ex-
pect to see him again summon the
committee together.

KANSAS CRY, Mo-, June l2.-The
last harvest excursion for the summer
was run by western roads yesterday
and not since the days of the real es-
tate boom has so much legitimate pas
senger traffic been handled in Kansas
City. All the trains from the east
and north came in yesterday and this
morning heavily loaded. Extra cars
were attached to the trains, yet many
of the passengers were compelled to
stand in the alsles. The depot was
crowded with people all day yester-
day and this morning there were not
sufficient seats in all of the commodi-
GUS waiting rooms to accommodate the
travellers waiting to take trains to the
south and west. The majority of the
travellers are homeseekers from Hi
nois, Indiana, Iowa and Nebraska on
their way to southwest Missouri, Texas
and Oklahoma territory. They are a
prosperous and contented looking class
of people and appear to have sufficient
money to start themselves comfort
ably in the new country they are seek
ing The greatest immigration has
been from Nebraska, and southwest
Missouri is the destination of the ma
jority of the settlers. The drought in
Nebraska has caused many people
to leave that state, and Missouri has
reaped the advantage. Each time that
a harvest excursion has been run this
summer it has been noticed that most
of the people came from Nebraska.

grams between Dick and Mckinley,
the governor finally wired that he
would come to Kansas in preference to
the national league at Cleveland.
