travel, lately returned to his church here,
preached a vigorous sermon upon the
duties OF a Christian citizenship.
Mrs. Kate Robinette, whom we have
long known, has been chosen matron of
the Methodist Female college, In Lexing-
ton. We feel this Is a most excellent
appointment. She Is a very nice lady, a
matchless seamstress, and a very fine
manager; also gifted with much good
counsel for young ladies upon their duties
In every way.
Our citizens are busy from day to day,
discussing politics. This is all right, If
they would avoid abuse and quarreling.
We have many riding the bicycle. Some
of them are very excellent. But Miss
Emmerson is a rider OF unusual grace and
dignity, sits straight n very easy. Miss
johnson and Miss Jean Taylor
are among the most graceful In horse

staple shoes and not very large sales,
our shoe business has increased so
rapidly that we are now carrying one of
the largest stocks in this line in Lex
ington. with sales as large as those of
any other department in our store.
The principal reasons for this salts
factory result are
We buy the kind of shoes that give
satisfaction.
Most of our shoes are bought for spot
cash at the bottom figures.
We follow the same policy in marking
selling prices on them as we do on all
our stock. No fancy profits not even
OF fancy shoes.
A large percentage of Lexington
people have learned that we sell shoes
much cheaper for the same quality than
other stores do.

asked this price and are now selling it
70 much less-nOthing of the kind.

The ssbolters'' have no right to call
themselves democrats. They are not
democrats and have no right to wear
the livery. Let them off with their
masks. They are counterfeit republi-
cans, and their claim to the democratic
name is as cheeky as their political
disappointments have been intense.

THE CAMPAIGN OPENING.
The Congressional, Senatorial and
County Candidates Make a Round
Trip of the County.

The campaign in Lafayette county was
cracked wide open this week. Starting
at MAYHEM, last Monday night, the con-
gressional, senatorial and county candi-
dates made a round of the county. They
will be at Wellington this afternoon and
plant a flag. From there they will come
to Lexington and appear at the court
house tonight. The engagements at
Dover and Waverly were postponed until
next Friday. This tour OF the county has
greatly Injured to the advantage of the
democratic ticket.
Cowherd's speeches were received every
where with an enthusiasm that seldom
marks political speeches in Lafayette
county. Those who heard him were at
first impressed with his intense earnest
ness. His argumentss carried conviction
to the hearts OF many who heretofore ave
not voted the democratic ticket.
Mai. Charles Vandiver has made n big
reputation in this round. He is now
being advertised as the Bob Taylor of
Missouri. He captured every audience
before which he spoke, and he will cap
ture many republican votes in November.
The rest of the boys made speeches
whenever it suited them, and some OF
them made good ones. .
From every standpoint the opening tour
of the democratic candidates was a great
success.

In keeping a third ticket in the field
in this state, the populists would have
the cordial approval of such well
known populist organs as the Globe
Democrat, Kansas City Journal and
Star, st. Louis Star, Sedalia Capital,
st. Joseph Herald, &c. Our observa-
ton is that the populists are in the
fight this year for country above party
and that the smiles of republican
approval and the Establishment of
republican papers, can not lead them
into a position where their services will
be of value to the gold standard crowd.
