the cattle unnfnntInc Question.
The State Live Stock Sanitary com
mission held meeting at Hotel Worth
from which two communications were
issued. Mr.. bleberg was not present,
but as the meeting had been before
discussed and agreed upon the meet
ing Itself was mere formality. Both
papers refer to the matter OF cattle
quarantine and may be found below
The story has been told that prior
to the Issuance Of Secretary Morton's
order Of quarantine he attempted cor
respcnuence with Governor Culberson
IN regard TO the matter. 1t Is said that
he wired Governor Culberson just prior
to the opening session of the legisla-
lure last September and urged the
chief executive OF Texas to ask the
Legislature to enact such laws as
would enable the quarantine officers
20 enforce the regulations. Governor
tulbefson, so 1t is said, did not appre-
clate the necessity OF such action and
let the matter go by default.
Mr., Tulls Of the commission. how
ever, does not think such was the case.
ON the contrary, he told "a reporter OF

rarics County Gazette.
Capt. Lesueur has served the people
so ably and faithfully that they will be
slow To dispense with his services; they
are not through with him yet. The
claim has been made many times that
he has made the best secretary of
state Missouri has ever had, and we
have yet To hear the statement contra
dicted the first time. He has been a
free SILVER democrat for many years; /;
used his tongue and pen in advocating
that doctrine years ago, and has never
yet ceased to lift up his voice to
advance the interests of the white
metal. He has labored earnestly to
promote the success of his party, and
is one of the very few men in public
life who have visited this county In the
interest of democracy. Capt. Lesueur
occupies warm place in the hearts of
the democrats of Maries county, and
the Gazette feels certain tLey will give
him their undivided support. And he
deserves it.
The weekly intelligencer. [volume] (Lexington, Mo.) 1891-1901, 1896-05-23

If we are to Judge the sentiment OF
the democracy of Missouri by the ex-
pressions found in the democratic
papers, Capt. A. A. Lesueur will be re-
nominated to the Office of secretary of
state by acclamation.
The INTELLIGENCER gives below
some of the comments made by the
papers of the state in regard to his race.
These expressions of confidence in one
of our own citizens is just source of
pride to every democrat in Lafayette
county in particular and in the state in
general The important fact connected
with them is that they speak of man
with a we'll tried record. These COM
ments are not based upon what editorial
writers think man could do, but upon
what he has done.
1t is conceded by democrats in every
section of the state that Capt. Lesueur's s
denomination is duty the party owes
to itself as well as to him. The opinion
is general that the party cannot afford
to make a mistake in the personnel of
the ticket at this time. 1t must nomi-
nate men who have been tried in the
public service and whose records are
such that the party can go before the
people and uphold with pride. AS
natural sequence of past and pres
ent conditions. the party is looking
toward Alex. A. Lesueur as one of the
leaders this year, in which there is
much of political uncertainty. Read
what the press has to say concerning
him:
Democrat. Hillsboro.
s'In making up their state ticket this
summer the democrats cannot do better
than to re-nomInate Alex. Lesueur and
j. nj. Seibert for the positions they
now hold. II may be said that they
have had a full share of official henors
and that the party has plenty of other
men just as good, and under different
circumstances there would be some
force in the statement. But just now
1t is not absolutely certain that the
democrats can elect anybody In the
state, and we believe they will stand a
better show with men who have a state
wide reputation for honesty and eff
cheney and against whose character
nOUOuy udTcS tcutulc all dlJdCh, IMAM
with equally good men who are not so
well known. 1t is not likely that the
most rabid republican will assert that
the offices of secretary of state and
state auditor can be filled any more
acceptably and honorably than they are
filled by these two men. Republicans
may object to their politics, but that is
all they can object to. That they are
democrats, tried and true, should
endear them more strongly to their
party. Their first duty at all times
has been to faithfully discharge the
business of their respective offices, but
they have, in a quiet, inoffensiVe and
unostentatIous manner, done noble
work for their party also. Nobody has
ever found reason or excuse for
accusing either of neglecting an official
duty. They have never sought to die
tate or boss, but what they have done
in a political way has been in the
interest of y united, harmonious party.
All good democrats can support them
with enthusiasm, while no good repub-
lican who has the best interests of his
state at heart can feel any sorrow if
they are elected to succeed themselves" J."

1t is evident that when the demo-
cratic state ticket Is made up the name
of Hon. A. A. Lesueur will appear
upon 1t as the party's candidate for
secretary of state. 1t is almost as
certain that he will have no opposition
for the nomination. While worthy
gentlemen have been named as possible
candidates, none have received enough
encouragement to justify the hazard
of a campaign against Captain Lesueur,
and it may safely be predicted that his
nomination will come by reclamation.
1t matters not OF what splendid
material the democratic ticket may be
composed, the name of Lesueur will
add strength TO it and contribute no
little to its certain success in November.
The popular appreciation of the pres
ent secretary of state is easily explain
ed. He has brought his Office to a
condition of efficiency that Is unequaled
in any of the states. He is not only
courteous, prompt and accommodating
as an official but he is firmness and i'm
partiality itself. He will not tolerate
loose or questionable methods. He
brings to bear such thorough intelli-
gence and knowledge of The laws
governing the details of his office that
errors cannot creep in, and the business
men of the slate, lawyers and others,
have come to rely npon him implicitly.

wide awake citizen, and active pro-

business aud never interferes with the
affairs of others. He acts upon the
sound theory that duty well performed
Is the only sure way to permanent
favor with the people. He has the
courage of his convictions and permits
no man to misrepresent him on any
question. He despises a demagogue.

Hon. A. A. Lesueur is a candidate
for denomination for secretary of state.
In our opinion the democratic party
could not possibly do better than to give
him another term. The accidents of
1894 will inspire the republicans to a
supreme effort this year, and we should
prepare to thwart the same by putting
forward our very best material. Mr.
Lesneur is now in the prime of a
vigorous life that has been amplified
and reinforced by varied opportunities
and experiences. He was born in ST.
Louis in 1912 and received a liberal
education at the university of that city.
After the civil war he settled at Lex
ington and soon became prominent in
politics. His merits gradually came to
the front, and we soon find him a
member of the general assembly and
author of a renitentIary law. Being
editor of the INTELLIGENCER, he was
chosen president of the Missouri Press
Association IN 1892. In 1888 he was
nominated for the position he now
holds, and attended to his duties so
faithfully that in 1892 he was nomina-
ted again without opposition. He is
courteous and capable, and no man
has ever filled that office in a manner
more satisfactory. He has served the
state and accommodated the public at
the same time. The Excelsior predicts
the democratic press of Missouri will
JON it in hearty support of Alexander
A. Lesueur for secretary of state in
1896

Capt. A. A. Lesueur, who for years
past has made one of the best and
most acceptable secretaries of state
that Missouri has ever had-with all
respect to other gentlemen who have
held the positIon-at least since the
war, is u candidate for denomination
and election to that most important
office. No official anywhere has been
more attentive to his duties than has
Secretary Lesueur, and none more
obliging and ready to accommodate his
constituents with any and all informa-
ton concerning affairs of state than
he. He is courteous and obliging, a
man who thoroughly understands the
duties of his position, carrying every
thing on so systematically that there
is never hitch in the public business
of the state. When we have SO good
IA man in such a position we should
keep him there.

A. A. Lesueur is candidate for

given the state clean, business like
administration and there is little room

hearty endorsement in the form of a
denomination and reelection.

office which he now holds. As a
servantFof the people he has displayed
marked ability, energy and faithful
ness, combined with a courteous and
obliging disposition that makes friends
Of all who come in contact with him.
There is not an editor in this state
who is not under obligations to this
accommodating official for a hand
book of invaluable statistics compiled
by him with great care and accuracy.
A servant of the people who after trial
is found 20 he honest, faithful, efficient
and businesslike in the administration
of the Office 10 which he is elected,
should be retained rather than resort
to the experiment of an untried man,
and as A. A. Lesueur has been tried
and proven worthy we heartily endorse
him for reelection.
