THE Sedalia Democrat, although one
of the strongest free silver papers in
the State, is not in favor of kicking a
man out of the party because he does
not agree with it on the financial ques-
tion. That paper editorially says:
"Pettis County Democrats do not pro-
pose to sacrifice principle for harmony,
but when they have outvoted fellow
Democrat they do not think they are
called upon to knock him down and
throw him out of the window. The
determination policy is more charac-
teristic of personal grievance than of
loyalty to principle, and it is these
private feuds and personal quarrels
that Democracy must guard against
in it's State Convention"

tits quite evident that the Populist lead
ers in this State will not agree to any rea-
sonable terms made by Democrats looking
to a union of the silver forces in the State.
There are several reasons for this, but the
main trouble lies in the fact that Mellow
ell is a candidate for Congress in the Ninth
district and hopes to perfect arrangements
with Republicans by which he can GET the
Republican votes of that district. A fus-
ion with Democrats would prevent this
and Mr.. Mcdowell knowsit, and he places
his personal success before the success of
silver, although he has been claiming to
be a friend Of silver for years.-Huntlng-
don Democrat.
