Now that Iron county at its Mass

for the free and unlimited coinage of

behooves every Democrat to put his

stone unturned to bring out a full par
ty vote next fall; and unless this is
done we can't expect victory. A Com
mittee cannot do all, and must be as
sisted, and nothing short of vigorous
and clean-cut canvass will accomplish
like full vote. So let US
be untiring and unceasing in our eff
forts.

chance to confirm their their twirling
and pounding proclivities?
Since our last news. have come and
gone the city. school, township and
county elections and conventions, all
of which glided away without friction
or particular notice, save the fact that
free silver predominated; and to say
that free silver 16 to is the favor of
our people regardless of isms. is put
ting the question lightly. Democrats
and Republicans in this section are full
iy aware of the schemes of the apostles
of Wall Street, and like sensible people
are rapidly coalescing their views and
will vote for their interest, and not for
the Grover Cleveland bond purchase
and monopoly: and when our primary
polls are open the Maffit-Francis-Re-
public gang will get init" in box-car
letters. Missouri, thank heavens! has
given the Republic gang the grandest
set-down a crowd ever had, and at
last we are disposed to vote for our
own interest and not for the welfare
of the isms which have been incorpor-
ated by and for the interest of monop-
oily in the east, and later on for the
benefit of John Bull and his stalwarts.
Look out for free silver! She is boom

you will see the greatest split in the
old party lines that was ever known.

reconciliation of silver at the ratio of
16 to /. After the speech we took
part in the organization of the County
Central Committee, and then went
over to the home of Judge Fox with
him and up to the residence of Judge
T. P. Russell to get a view of the Val
ley. We sat down in front of the resi-
deuce of Judge Russell, and your cor
respondent Toasted on the beauty OF
the loveliest valley in the state OF
Missouri. We were presently Joined
by Judge Russell. and for half an hour
we listened to the judges interesting
conversation and enjoyed the scenery.
But as all things must end, we re-
turned to the residence of Judge Fox,
and after supper We returned to the
City of Ironton. The view from Judge
RS place is by far the most beautiful
that it has ever been my lot to behold.
and must be seen to be appreciated;
and, in future when we meet ''Old

A special to the Globe Democrat, dat
ed Poplar Bluff April IL, says: .sDep-
uty Sheriff Hilteb1dal arrived at Will
Evansville to-day from Grandin, having
IN charge James Lord, an alleged par
ticipant in the Iron Mountain attempt
&c train robbery which took place at
Williamsville several months ago.
There were two robbers in the band,
both were masked and they uncoupled
the engine from the car, but after
holding up the express messenger
were frightened away before procuring
anything but Conductor Webb's watch.
Lord is a young man about 5 feet 8
inches in height. weighs 159 pounds
and has light complexion and blue
eyes. When arrested he was working
for the Missouri Lumber and Mining
Company at Grandin, Mo. Mr.. Hilte-
bidal was on the track of Lord for sew
eral months, having received a tip
from a man whose name he refuses to
give. At the time of the hoidup Lord
was living near Corning, Ark, and af-
ter the robbery he went to Clear
Water. His parents live at Sabula,

The entertainment given last Satur-
day evening by Mrs. Chamberlin's
music class was a decided success.
There was pleasing alternating of in
strumental and vocal selections, which
proved very satisfactory to the good
house that came out to be entertained.
There were some small pupils who
gave the listeners a surprise by the
readiness with which they rendered
their parts, and there is no doubt but
that they will accomplish much for
themselves in music. The singing
was all very good indeed; but the
''Song and Chorus" was followed by a
persistent clapping of hands for an
'.encore," but failed to bring a re-
spouse. Another time, one of the
young ladies received a similar invita-
ton, but the only response was a bow
and one of her sweetest smiles. Two
German Songs" were we'll rendered
and were highly appreciated by those
who understand the language OF the
.'Father1and." Without trying to mem
tion all, it is due to both teacher and
pupils to say that the selections were
pleasing and the renditions very salts
factory to every listener.
