the State capital should remain where
it is. No matter what kind OF state

will cost the tax payers of Missouri

ner endorsed Hon. r. p. Bland for the
Democratic nomination for President
of the United States, II the National
Convention at Chicago favors the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at l6 to
l, Mr.. Bland should be nominated for
President by reclamation. Bland is an
honest, clean man and q logical leader
of the party on the free silver plat
form. He favors free coinage of silver
as a matter of principle. He always
has favored it, and is looked upon by
all who know him as being con-
scientious and straightforward in his
position on the financial question. The
Democratic delegation to Chicago will
do all in its power to have Mr.. Bland
nominated. II he is nominated, as in
dicated above, every Democrat in the
State of Missouri should take of his
coat and work for his election. 1t is
the plain duty of every Democrat to
abide by the result of the Chicago
convention. That convention will be
outspoken on the financial question
and will nominate man in hearty ac-
cord with the platform. IL there is
free silver platform and Bland is NOM
mated, it is the duty of Democrats
everywhere to cordially and heartily
support him, not only with their
mouths for effect, but with their votes
for results.
