Mrs Joseph Turner of Vigo county broke
her lower jaw. She broke 1t again in

arose from inexperience in talking, the

The free silver Democrats of old Mis-
souri, can resolute and fill the atmos-
phere with noise very much like the ira
ditional trio of coyotes, but it does not
follow that they really reflect the senti-
ment of the body of the party on the
financial question. 1t is significant
fact that such leading Democratic pa
pers of the state as the st. Louis Repub-
lie, the Kansas City Times and the Kan
sas City Star are utterly opposed to the
Zeiger des Westens of St Louis, the
most widely circulated and influential
German Democratic paper of the south
west, is also in emphatic opposition to
the men who are trying to commit the
party of equal rights to all and special
privileges to none to the doctrine that
ii is the duty of the government to foster
the interests of silver mine owners by
taking their metal at double its CONNER
cial value. This is the way it treats of
the silver plank adopted by the late
Democratic convention of st. Louis;
Its authors identify themselves
prominently with this 16 to platform as
adherents of the time honored princi-
pie formulated and practiced by Jeffer-
son, Madison Jackson. Benton and other
great and distinguished Democrats

The election of Mckinley as president
would mean the occupancy of the eXecu-
tive chair for four years by man who
would never be check upon the legisla-
tive body. and whose signature could he
counted upon for any bill that was passed
by Il majority of the peoples representa-
tives." A Mckinley in Grants place in
1874 would have set the nation back a
quarter of a century. A president with the
independence that Grant showed in 1874
may be quite as necessary to the safety of
the country from 1897 to 1901.
