The Democrats Of Missouri are
appealing to some of their fore
most men to accept the nomination
for Governor and save the State
from the Republicans. Even Sen
ator Cockrell has been asked to
lead the forlorn hope. That such
a desperate state of affairs should
exist in the Democratic party OF
Missouri is certainly novel ex-
pcrience for the old Bourbons. who
are accustomed to seeing any kind
of Il man. as long as he was Il Dem
ocrat, nominated and elected: bu,
the days of the Bourbons are over
When a party has to resort to ap
pcals, the extremity is ccrtalnl,
dire. and all that is left is nour
ished hope that defeat may be cs
capped by putting the best men Il
the fore.

Homestead Law Decision.

Judge Barclay filed an import
ant opinion recently in the Supreme
Court in hanc in the case of Charles
H. Macke against Sallie H. Byrd
and others. The suit originated in
Cape Girardean County and invol-
yes construction Of the homestead
law. Under the statutes. a
homestead law may consist of as
much 100 acres of land. not
exceeding. however. the value of
ST. 500. In this suit. a homestead
Of the value of $500 was set
apart to avoid an execution
Of q Judgment. Soon after. the
value Of the property greatly in
creased and is owner sold ont for
So 900 and moved from the State
The holder Of the Judgment then
instituted proceedings for a lien on
all the value Of the property that
would schedule above $500. the
statutory limitation of Il homestead.
Judge Barclay holds that the lien is
invalid and all members Of the
court concur with him. 1t would
however have been valid had the
suit been instituted against the
original owner to schedule his
homestead down to the value of
81 500. This is an issue that was
never before passed unon by the
Supreme Court Of Missouri. and
its effect will no doubt be far reach

JUDGING from the attitude of
our western Senators on the coin
age question, free silver with them
is only a sectional matter and class
legislation in favor Of the silver
producers. They seem to care
nothing for the effect free silver
would have upon our monetary
system SO long as it will put the
western silver mines in operation.
Not one of these Senators would
favor free coinage but for the self
interest he has in it through tn,
benefit it would confer upon his
own section.

Harrison applied 1898 ,53s, 900 to
to the public debt. and Cleveland,
during his first term, only applied
1443. 600. 900. or S91. 900. 900 less
than Harrison. From this it will
be seen how the Harrison admins
tration squandered the surplus.
If Cleveland had paid off as much
Of the public debt during his first
term as was paid by Harrison, in
stead Of leaving surplus of s1S3.-
900. 900 he would have left only
about 1913 ono. 900. or $50. 900. 900
less than was left by the Harrison

An Old Country superstit,on.

In some Of the southern counties of
England queer superstitions are current
about eating blackberries after Michael
mas day. The country people say that
OH Michaelmas eve the old gentleman
"plants his cloven FOOT on all the
blackberries as yet ungathered. After
this date, Sept. 30, it is unlucky to
pick or eat the fruit.
The date upon which the devil puts
his foot down" against blackberry eat
ing varies in different districts. In
some it is as late as Oct. 10, by which
time one would naturally suppose there
were no blackberries left to stamp out.
But the story Of his prohibition is told
IN many places. Great misfortune, sick
ness or death will surely follow disobe-
dience to his orders
But why his satanic majesty should
concern himself SO particularly about
blackberries, when so many greater mat
tiers might be said to claim his aeten-
ton, none of the stories states. 1t may
be that he considers blackberries too
healthy and wishes to limit the consump.

Useful Member Of a Family.

The Portuguese say that no man can
be a good husband who does not eat a
good breakfast, which leads the Water
bury American to say this is q mean
way of throwing upon the wife all the
responsibility for the husbands good
ness, for without a good wife there can
be no good breakfast for him to eat.
That may be right in theory, but it is
wrong in practice. We know o man
who has cooked breakfast the greater
part of the time for the past Is years
for his family. And we violate no con-
fidence when We say it is a good break
fast too. He is man who loves GOOD
living. and he knows how to prepare a
meal with the best of women. Yet he
is a workingman who puts in from 10
to 10 hours day of hard work and the
kind of work that is exhausting. -Au-
