PROHIBITION CANDIDATE.

Baltimore, Md, April %. The Pro
hibition State Convention met this at
ternoon at Haherz Hall, for the pur-
pose Of eIectng twenty-five delegates to
the national convention Of the party,
which will meet at Pittsburg, Pa, May
9th. The principal business of the
convention was to generate enthusiasm
for Mr.. Joshua Leverlng for President
OF the United States, on the Prohibition
ticket, and this was we'll done. The
twenty-five delegates were impressed
with the fact that Maryland IS for Mr..
lowering, first, last, and all the time.
Mr.. lowering is not 50 sure OF being
a candidate az his supporters are. He
realizes that it means sacrifice for him,
and that there is no chance Of his being
elected. He said to-day that he did
not know thai he would accept the
nomination Of the Pittsburg conven-
ton, il it we're offered him.
Notwithstanding his resistance, how
ever, Mr.. Leyering's name Will be pre-
twenty-five of the staunchest Prohlbi-
tionists in the United States, and he
Will be lobbied for by from seventy-fiye
to one hundred Marylanders, in addi-
ton. who will attend the convention
unofiicially.

Gov. STONE has wristcn Il letter
to the Democratic papers through
out the State denying the many
allegations in the St. Louis Rcpub-
lie that he is manipulating the par
ty machinery in his own interest
and not for the good of the party,
that he is agitating free silver only
that ''Bill' Stone may rise, that he
uses his pardoning power to furth-
er his political schemes and that he
has become a slum politician. That
these charges are Of sufficient im-
portance to evoke Il denial from
the Governor is also sufficient cvi-
dencc that there is more or less
truth in them, and coming, as they
do, from the leading Democratic
paper in the State, they convince
us that it is about time for Nlissou-
ri to elect a Republican Governor.

Cahoon for Governor.

The ablcst, most logical, and to
our mind the most brilliant Dem
ocratic eX-Congrcssman who ever
represented Southeast Missouri in
the halls of Congress, said in our
hearing a short time since: ''If
there should be in the Republican
State Convention Il single Rcpubli-
can delegate from the whole of
Southeast Missouri who does not
vote for the nomination of B. B.
Cahoon, of Fredcricktown. as the
Republican candidate for Cover
nor, it will be Il burning shame and
an everlasting disgrace to the Re-
publican party Of Southeast Mis-
souri,, and to every Republican in
this entire section" He meant that
if even a single Republican dele
gate refused to support the ablest.

the same time he is plain and sim
pie in life and very direct Of speech.
He is never afraid to say no, and
calls Il spade a spade. He belongs
to no cliqucs or rings.
He is necessarily doer and a
worker. He has always laborcd
for the highest attainabIe in politics,
private life and business. Give
US clean men and measures" has
been his demand. Especially is he
the friend of education in every
form. Recently. although not Il
member of that church, he contrib
uted largely to the erection of the
Methodist College (South) i'll Fred
ericktown. His view is. that for
moral, patriotic and productive
purposes. education should be so
ditfu>cd amongst the people as to
be as free As water and as universal
as air.
He believes in intellectual and
moral forces in politics; on them
he relies and to them alone he APP
pcals. He is anything but Il time
server. He is an intense American
and holds that American labor and
American ideas will and should
control the deStinies of the human
race.
Never seeking Office and has more
than once declined it, in every polit-
ical campaign in Missouri, since
1868, Mr.. Cahoon has championed,
from a high intellectual and moral
standpoint, the most advanced
creed Of the Republican party in
eloquent and argumcntatiyc speech
cs, free from abuse or misrcprcsen-
tation Of the Democracy. Conse-
quently the opposition respect him
as frank, open, manly and brave
Republican. He is a power as :,
speaker. He has done much to
make Southeast Missouri Republi-
can as the result of the election of
two Republican congressman show
ed it to be. For that revolution
our section deserves to head
the ticket. Heading the ticket
as Governor MIR. Cahoon will get
5000 Democratic votes in South
east Missouri. That vote alone
will elect him. No other Republic
can in the State can get that Dem
ocratic vote.
! Ours will be The fighting ground
in 1896, and we desire and deserve
that our typical Republican leader
should be the nominee. Mr.. Ca
hoon has largely encouraged the
development Of the material re-
sources Of our section and State.
No man is better acquainted with
them or with the needs of the State
and of its people. His acquaint-
ance over the State is extensive.
He is recognized as one of its lead
crs. Such, in brief, is the man the
Republicans of Southeast Missouri,
unitedly, propose to urge the next
Republican convention of Missouri
to nominate for Governor. He
will be Il credit to the party and
the State. and if nominated will be
elected.
In the prime of life, in the full
ness of his powers, great future
of usefulness lies before Mr.
Potosi journal. (Potosi, Mo.) 1894-1929, 1896-04-01

WHILE the nomination and the
election of Hon. b. b. Cahoon for
Governor will be of untold value
to Missouri, there is no calculating
the particular advantage it will be
for Southeast Missouri. No man
in our section is more familiar
with our resources or has a deeper
interest in their development.
The Republican of Southeast Mis-
souri, who claims to be devoted to
our material interests, to say moth
ing Of the fortune of Southeast
Missouri Rcpublicanism, who is
not in favor of Mr.. Cahoons nomi-
nation but, who would prefer to
go abroad to select for nomination
any other gentleman named (not
one of whom is superior in any
manner to MIR. Cahoon,) may well
have his loyalty to our cause and
section questioned. Every day we
hear democrats declare they will
vote for Cahoon if he shall be nomi-
mated. Southeast Missouri has
heretofore been the stronghold of
Democracy. Our information from
every quarter of it, is that because
of his liberal course, and his great
devotion to orr interest, Democrats,
OH every hand in Southeast Mis-
souri,, express themselves openly
that they will vote for MIR. Cahoon
if he is nominated. We say that
Mr.. Cahoon, in Southeast Missouri,
will secure several thousand Dem
ocratic votes that no other Repub-
lican in Missouri can get. votes
sufficient to decide the result if, as
might bc the case, the election l., to
he Il close one. This fact alone
