Watson Counted Out.

A private dispatch to New Char
ter from Atlanta, Ga, says:
"Black elected on face of returns,
but Watson will contest"
If ever a man had just reason for
contest Watson is the man. The
damnable rascality and corruption
of the democrats Of the two demo.
cratic counties of that district has
never been exceeded in this country.
That such deeds can be committed
in this country and go unrebuked
and UNPUBLISHED by the "powers that
be" is danger signal that fills hon
est men with dread.
The time is near at hand when
protest will cease and action begin
Americans will not long consent to
be robbed of their cor stitutional
rights. If the money power makes
revolution Unnecessary prelude to the
restoration of government by the
people; let it not complain if NJ is
crushed in the mills that are set to
grinding.
Tom Watson has large majority
of the vote of the 10th Georgia dis
trict on his side. The rascality Of
the democratic machine. supplement
ed by the purchasable, ignorant and
depraved negro vote of the district
continues TO rob the people Of their
constitutional guaranteed rights, be-
fore congress Watson will make a
contest. If he cannot get justice
there, reformers will know that the
time has come to fight no longer with
gloves.-San Jose New Charter.

Rich Pnriurers.

1t is estimated that the value of
all money, bonds, stocks and securi-
ties of all sorts amounts to over one
thousand million dollars. The wives
of some of these stock and bond
owners boast of possessing jewels to
the value OF fifty thousand to two
hundred and ffty-fve thousand dol
lars. In 1898, only ffty-five thous.
and of stocks and bonds were given
in for taxation and less than twenty
thousand worth of jewelry. Yet
these are the people who do so much
talking about the dishonest silver
dollar.

A Wonderful Canine

Rev. Downing, of South Pittsburg,
Tennessee, has a most wonderful
dog. He is an ordinary yellow cur
named "Bench," with coarse hair
and short legs, but it is said that he
can initiate the sounds of any animal
at will. At the word of comman d
he will crow like a cock, neigh ike
a horse, low like COW, grunt and
squeal like pig, NEW like cat and
repeat the various voices incident to
farm life. He could give all the
yelps of a pack of hounds in pursuit
OF fox and in go realistic mann r
that you could scarcely help believ-
ing that a hunt was in progress.

DURING the last decade Of years
the population of our county has
been at a stand still. or possibly, it
has decreased, while the adjoining
counties have had large accession5
to their population. For this we can
give reason except that it is there
suit of disinclination on the part of
our influential men to do anything
towards attracting public attention
to our county and its natural re-
sources. Politics may have had
something to do with this apathy,
but the time for that has passed
and Bourbonism, which has hereto
fore retained political control of
the county at the expense Of pros
perity and advancement, has been
buried out of sight, and the polite
al conditions now invite strangers
to settle within our boundaries.

IT would never. have become
necessary for the Governor to call
the legislature together in extra
session if it had not been for the
the utter disregard of the peoples
interests by the Democrats, in their
rnholy desire to prevent the Re
publicans from enacting laws that
would have resulted in adding
prestige to the Republican party.
The Democrats were aware when
the legislature met last winter that
the people of Missouri expected
certain measures in the interest
of public welfare would be passed,
and which the Republican House
did pass, and said measures would
today be laws uponour statute books
had it not been for the hard headed
stupidity of the partisan Democrats
in the Senate. Since the legisla-
turc adjourned popular sentiment
has been aroused to such Il pitch
that all the prominent Democrats
in the State, from Governor Stone
on down, have come to the realiZa-
ton THAT the gage of defiance they
threw to the Republicans has prov
en- to be veritable boomerang,
which on it return struck them
with such force as to awaken them
to Il full sense of their danger.
hence the extra session.
Now that the extra session has
been called, the call does not bring
with it the assurance that the Dem
ocrats will act anyditferent than they
didin the regular session. The Gov
ernor, in rcconvening the legisla-
ture, probably hopes that the
Republican majority will give in to
the Democratic minority and helr
it to correct its partisan mistakes.
In this hope he will be disappoint-
ed, for the Republicans are more
likely to stand pat on the RECORD
they have made than to bow hum
bly, down before the minority. feel
ing assured that they have conscien-
tiou>ly discharged their duties to
| the people who returned them t
power last fall. If the Democrat:
cannot, Or will not, aid in passing
such legislation as is demanded b,
the people of the entire State, nn
biased by party prejudice, then ie
them bear theresponsibility of thei
willfulness, the Republicans will il
no wise be to blame.

In calling the legislature togo

In calling the legislature togcth-
or Governor Stone, among other
matters, recommends that it should
give some attention to the lobby.
That is all right so far as it goes.
Laws might be passed that would
prevent the lobby from entering
the capitol, but that would not keep
the lobbyist from reaching his man.
AS long as legislator is willing to
sell his vote he can be reached by
the man who is willing to pay for
it, in spite of anti-lobby laws.
Therefore, it lies with the people
to remedy the matter. Let them
be more careful in the selection of
their representatives, and the lobby
would soon be out of Il job for lack
of material to work on.

THE jury in the Meeks murder
case, at Carrollton, Mo-, failed to
agree and the case will have to be
tried over again. The evidence
against the Taylor brothers, while
entirely circumstantial, was most
conclusive, yet five of the jurymen
held out for acGuittal. 1t is ap-
parent from the result in this case
that there is a growing sentiment
against conyicting a man of a cap
ital crime upon circumstantial evi-
dence. and unless ocular witnesses
can be produced there will always
remain a lingering doubt in the
minds of one or more of the jury,
