"Roasted" HIS Congregation.

A dispatch from st. Joseph, dated
the 25th inst, says: The Rev. L.
R. Mckinney, pastor of the Chris
tian church at Hopkins, Mo, preach
ed his farewell sermon Sunday night
and came tc this city yesterday to
escape the wrath he stirred up. In
his farewell sermon the Rev. Mr.
Mckinney told his hearers Of their
faults in the plainest language he
could command. The church was
crowded and he had not talked long
when people arose in their seats and
shouted to him that he was liar.
He went Cd, however, and, pointing
the people out and calling them by
name, told them of their shortcom
ings. When they became demon
strative he shook his fist in their
faces and quelled them. He told
one member of the congregation
that he some years ago had deserted
his mother and allowed her to die in
the poor house. He told how one
brother had swindled creditor GU,
of money, and how another. in the
capacity of notary public. had believ
ed himself vested with the authority
to perform the marriage service anc
had actually married a couple. He
concluded by saying that hell would
not take on mourning when some O.
the people died.
Yells Of approval and disapprova
were heard throughout the discours,
and the scene was such as the peo
pie had never witnessed before j,
that quiet village. The sermon wa,

Missouri is the Prize.

The democrat in Missouri who
feels it incumbent upon himself to
stir up strife within his owa party
at this time should at once apply to
Boss Filley for campaign salary,
and if the old man don't come down
it will be because he has no surplus
funds on hand. One democrat, if
he has any influence at all, can
iniure his party more than ten re
publlcans, no matter how able they
NAV be. II democrat feels that he
is better than his party he should
leave it and join some other party;
or if no existing party is quite good
enough for him-then, in that event
he should organizs new party and
nominate himself for the presidency.
If there is anything under the
heavens that is calculated to confirm
belief in the justice OF everlasting
future punishment it is to be forced
to listen to some scolding democrat
with hard luck story about the
shortcomings of his own party.
Why in tie name OF Gen. jackson
such men do not leave the party is a
mystery. Probably they think other
parties regard them as health officers
do small pox patient, and that
such parties have trouble OF their
own without drawing a sight draft
on the community at large for more.
There will be campaign this sum-
mer that will demean men, mot chron-
ic fault-fnders and hospital recruits.
There will be no time to look after
the wounded until the battle is
over. 1t will be battle between the
democrats and the republicans for
control of this great state, and men
who have no other weapons OF de
fense, save a tale of woe, had better
hide out until after the polls close.
The prize to be fought for is Mis-
souri,, and the question for every
democrat to settle is whether the
democratic party is to rule the state,
or whether he is willing to fold his
hands and let the republicans win by
default? This is a question every
democrat must answer for himself.
All other issues fade into insignif.
canoe. The republicans are working
night and day to get their discord-
ant elements together. What they
are after is Missouri. Can any dem
ocrat afford to do less to retain con.
troll of the state than every republi
can will do to capture it? No; g
thousand times, no Jefferson City
Tribune.

Madrid, March 4.-The Marquis

The rector of the university, learning
of this determination, had fifty of

has been that the good order of the

By far the most prominent feature
of the strained relations between
Spain and the United States to day
is that all Spaniards who have been
acting as consuls of the United

The Republican Campaign.

The campaign for the Republican
nomination for president is interest.
ing, and is being conducted some
what as a game of chess is played
by skillful players. 1t is not only
Mckinley against the field, as it
stands, but emphatically the field
against Mckinley. There are eleven
candidates announced, as we'll as we
can remember. They are Mckinley
OF Ohio, Reed of Maine, Morton of
New York, Allison of Iowa. Culber-
son of Illinois, Alger of Michigan,
Henderson of Nebraska, Buckley of
Kentucky, Thurston of Nebraska,
and Davis of Minnesota.
OF these, Mckinley, Reed, Morton
and Allison are real candidates. The
others are in the field chiefly to con-
troll the delegations from their states,
and prevent them from supporting
Mckinley and nominating him on
the first ballot. This is primal OBJ
ject of their candidacy, but 1t does
not follow that some one of them
may not become real candidate, if
the contest is prolonged, and in case
there is deadlock among the lead.
ers, secure the nomination. This
combination is the work of Quay, OF
Pennsylvania, and Platt, of New
York, bosses of the party in theil
respective states. Their theory is
if they cau prevent Mckinley from
being nominated on the first ballot
the combined strength of their states
can control the convention and nomi
nate whom they please.

Washington. D. c., March A
The list of distinguished Democratic
leaders who are announcing their in
tention of remaining away from the
Democratic National convention at
Chicago is daily growing larger.
Men who have been prominent for
years in national affairs and especial
ly noticeble at Democratic conven-
tions, where they were leaders, are
announcing that On July Z they will
be elsewhere than in Chicago.
Bourke Cochran, the eloquent ex
leader of the Tammany braves, was
the first to give it out that he would
not go. Richard Croker came next
with the statement that he would be
too busy racing his horses over in
England to line up the boys from
the wigwam this year. Then came
Editor Henry Waterson with the an
nouncement that Chicago would
have to get along without him, and
without his "star.eyed goddess"
Senator German of Maryland, the
machine builder whose mechanical
genius has heretofore been hard
worked about the convention time
announced that he would have moth.
ing to dc with the Democratic love
feast in the Lake City, and that the
place that he had heretofore held as
chief pluggsr on reforms would be
vacant. He felt it is said, that his
genius would not be necessary in
erecting the national platform sup

tanned wholesome dread of having
to carry nails for the builders who
would succeed him.
Now comes Hon. Calvin Brics.
whose hirsute orifamme and red
carnation have been seen in the
Buckeye headquarters for years, and
announces that he will not attend the
Chicago gathering. Explanations as
to why these veteran convention fix
lures should thus suddenly and in
sequence file notice of their propos'
ed absence from Chicago are many.
The most plasible is that they re
