THE SEDALIA CONVENTION.

The state convention which elected
delegates to the national convention
was one of the ablest, most harmonious
and most successful ever held on Mis-
souri, soil.
In this convention the unexpected did
not happen. The delegates nearly all
went under full instructions and the
result was practically known weeks
CO.. Every county in Missouri declared
for free silver at 16 to 1, but not with
out a contest. The result was a far
reaching and glorious victory for the
old democratic principles and honest
money. The delegates showed hem
selvey worthy victors. They were, in
the platform adopted, sufficiently mag
unanimous to their adversaries. In
refusing to vote for gold men as dele
gates, they but carried II their instruc-
tions. The democrats of Missouri had
spoken on this point, and nothing was
left to the convention but to obey the
instructions. Missouri has voted for
Bland and 16 to l for president. Polit-
ical forecasts give the majority of the
national convention to the silver smen.
The action of Missouri will have great
influence in national politics, and it is
far more than reasonable to believe
that Bland may be the national leader,
and the Missouri platform the national
platform. So mote it be.

THAT BRIDGE LETTER.
Mr.. John Walker has Written the
Following Letter to Secretary
Moorehead.
PAGE CITY, Mo-, April 2, 1895.


j. X. Moorehead, Esq. Lexington, Mo.
DEAR SIR:-I see there has been consid-
newspape gossip over a joke 1 told
on the Higginsville court house picture
Tor the Jefferson City proposed court
house, and it seems that the joke has been
applied to the Lexington Bridge Co., and
that / have been given the credit of say
ing that You were sending out letters to
the subscribers for so per cent OF their
subscription, &c. 1 never told any one
that you were sending out such letters,
nor have l received any such letter or
circular. But l did state to the editor OF
the Leader that l had a letter from a per-
sonaI friend who had written a burlesque
on the court hous squabble, and signed
his name as assistant deputy secretary Of
defuncted Lexington Pontoon Terminal
Bridge Co. This was a personal letter to
me and not intended to be published. 1t
contains nothing concerning the ques-
ton in the least. Hoping hereafter the
editor of the Leader may get things
straight IL not confound facts with
fables.
am a strong advocate of the bridge
and always have been and, in my humble
judgement, | believe that the bridge would
be worth ten times as much to the county
as forty court houses. 1t will not only
appreciate and enhance the value OF prop
erty in Lexington, but the entire county.
While a new court house at either Lexing,
ton or Higginsville would perhaps breed
litigation, which is detrimental to any
county while the bridge would open up
new enterprises that would be an advan-
tage to alI-either direct or indirect.
Very Respectfully,
JOHN

Hoffman, Of Lexington, Mo-, my nephew,
after a umb of years in the employ of
Chickering & Sons, of Boston, as piano
tuner and salesman, will in the future be
in my employ. 1t is an axiom in the
music trade that the employee who can
please the Messrs. ChickerIng, the leading
piano makers of the world, must be a
thoroughly good workman. My nephew,
from the 1sttering testimonials he has
received, must have thoroughly pleased
his late employers. In my employ he
makes one of six of the best piano tuners
to be found in this vicinity. As a piano
salesman he should find no difficulty in

select from. The matchless~ ChickeriDg in

Items from the Concordian: Capt. @.
N. Richards, the former editor and
publisher of the Concordian, and his
daughter, Miss Janet Richards, left us last
Sunday morning. The Captain is an
excellent newspaper man and editor, q
reliable gentleman and a good citizen.
He leaves many friends In Concordia and
they wish him success. We hope that
Mr.. Richards health will improve, and
enable him to return to the newspaper
business some day. Miss Janet leaves a
score of friends in this city and they all
very much regret to lose her from their
circle. We hope that she will remember
the little city called Concordia, as we'll as
she will be remembered by her friends In
this city. Our best wishes go with both
father and daughter, may they live happy
and often think of their friends in Con-
cordia go. The Cancordia Creamery Co.
received during the month of March 1881
500 pounds of milk and made 6,436 pounds
of butter. The company paid 19c per
pound for butter fat. Last Sunday,
April 18th, at 4:3O o'clock p. M, Miss
Catharine Baepler and Mr.. Henry Nesler
were united in the holy bonds of wedlock
at the st. Paul's Luthern church. Kew
Rlitz performed the beautiful marriage
ceremony August Steffens, who lived
about ~ miles west of Alma, committed
suicide Friday, April 18th. Steffens had
been to Alma in the afternoon on bust
ness. The same night he was found hang
ing at the barn. The cause why he killed
himself is not known. Stetfens was not
married and lived with his brother on the
above described place.
If you want to read something strong
in the financial line, something that has
but one side and that a good one; some
thing that must be the common product
of popularity and good business sense,
read the" financial statement of the Com
mercial bank in this issue. This state
ment tells its own story and here's Ii to
! that no bank in Missouri will make a
healthier statement. Many claim that
the banks are the true index to the pros.
perity of a community. If there is any
thing in this, this statement bears testi-
MANY that ''hard times do not exist
here abouts. The Commercial bank is
run by business men and financiers.
Hon. Robert Taubman, the president,
is rightly entitled to a high place among
the bankers of the state. He is no less
"a success however in the other avenues
of life than he is at the head of this
great banking institution. +. NJ,
Taubman, the cashier. is a financier by
inheritance, adoption and education.
That these are facts the statement will
testify.
The grand combination stock sale OF
Belt and Hickman will take place next
Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday at
the fair grounds at Higginsville. This
sale will include some excellent horses.
Most anything yOu want in this line
will be for sale here. If you want a
single driver, Il family horse or a good
team attend this sale.

WISDOM OF THE SITUATION.

The wisdom of the Fifth congress
sional district situation is the nomina-
ton of a true Lafayette county
democrat. II matters don't materially
change in Kansas City the nomination
of a Jackson county man would be a
g~rievous political mistake.
Kansas City has no capable man
who Is not in some way or other
ideutihed with from n to a dozen
factions. The trouble with the Kansas
City party is all the product of local
differences. All the factions claim to
be democratic and want democratic
victory. The democrats of this dis
trict have no time to fool away in
mistakes and dissension if they
want an antl-protection, anti-monopoly,
anti-force bill man to represent The dis
trict in congress. There may be n chance
to elect some one to congress who Is
not identified with the factions IN
jackson county. If we a elect
anybody it is a Lafayette county

April 18th, 1895.

The Mount Lebanon Shakers have in
vented a great many valuable things.
They were the first to make brooms by
machinery; the first to put up seeds in
little packages; the first to manufacture
cut nails.
Now they are out with a method OF
curing dyspepsia by resting the stomach.
Their remedy is known as the Shaker
Digestive cordial. 1t supplies food in an
artiicially digested form and at the name
time aids the digestion of other foods in
the stomach. In other words, by the use
of the Shaker Digestive Cordial, a dys-
peptic virtually gets along without the
use of his stomach until it is restored to
it's natural strength and vigor. A sinRIe
10 cent bottle will oft times give marktd
relief Get a bottle from your druggist
