MET IN THE WRONG PLACE.

Last Saturday HiggInsville held a
meeting at Concordia. About seventy
five farmers from Davis township went
down, and with some of the schemers
from the city OF Higginsville, passed
resolutions declaring that the people of
ConcerdIa were in favor of county seat
removal. Perhaps a greater insult
was never offered to the citizens of one
section of this county than was the
holding, manipulating and controlling
of this meeting by self-interested par
ties from another township.
AT Odessa, Higginsville attempted
this same thing. There she was gwen
to understand sin meetlng' that Hig-
ginsville was out of place, and that
Odessa could attend 10 her own meet
ings.
At Concordia, however, Higginsville
was treated in a different way. The
citizens of Freedom township did not
participate in the Higginsville meeting
to any great extent but in the evening
they me: and passed resolutions that
told what they thought about the
actions of Davis township, and these
resolutions have nothing UNCERTAIN
in them. Concordia resented the
insult, and she did so in a manner that
shows Higgin sville in a very bad light.
The cause of county seat removal
lost votes by the Higginsville meeting
at Concordia, and 1t will lose votes
every time Higginsville shows her
hand in this fight.
People Of common sense, such IS
live at Concordia, are willing to grant
favors, but not when terms are die
tated to them. They hold their wi
meetings and pass their own resolu-
lions. If Higginsville don't like them
Concordia regrets it, but when work
ing for principle Concordians
surrender for friendships. Higgins
vile held her meeting / n the wrong
place. That meeting ought TO have
been held in Higginsviile.

DeArmond 10 Hall,

Washington, ID. c., Feb. 1l.-De
Almond Today replied TO Hall. The
speech of the free silver Missonrian
was rs sensational as thai of the sound
money Missourian. 1t was an almost
savage reputation of Halls utterances
as rejecting the sentiments of. the Mis-
souri, democracy. 1t took up the story
OF the eight senators who had voted for
free silver, knowing that the enactment
of such q measure would mean national
bankruptcy and ruin, and made appii-
cation of it to Halls own case.
Between misrepresentation and polit-
ical cowardice, DeArmond drew n
comparison, and then he denounced
his colleague as a betrayer of his con-
stituents. He scored Hall for having
claimed the credit of authorship of the
income tax proposition, when that
credit did not belong to him. For hall
hour he poured out upon him his
scOrn, while the free silver democrats
.applauded almost every sentence. Mr.,
speech win make inter
reading in Missouri.

The endorsement OF the Tree coinage
of silver by the United States senate
shows how that body has slipped away
from the grasp of the New England
money-lenders after they had been in
undisputed possession for more than a
quarter of a century, says the Jefferson
City Tribune. 1t is not to be sup
posed that a free silver bill can be
enacted this year, and it is equally
certain that the gold standard men
will not be able to dictate Legislation
to suit themselves, even if they do own
the lower house of congress.
Two years hence there will be a
different set of men in the lower house
of congress-, and the people may rule
through their representatives, in which
event a free coinage measure will be
enacted into a law.
The United States senate recognizes
the fact that a government for the peo-
pie of this country Is more popular
than a government for Wall street.
.SomeEpf the old fossils like Senator
Shesd5an still think the chief duty of
The ~ee1ernment is to enrich million
ares md tax the common people; but
their face is about un, and they no
longer voice the sentiment of the SEN
ate. They are being weeded out rap
idly and better men are taking their
places. The west and south has made
nearly a clean sweep, except in the
lower branch OF congress, which is
largely composed of men who were
accidentally elected, and do not know
how TO represent their W small
views, but go to the representatives of
Wall street for their primer lessons.
If the gold standard men are wise
they will not aggravate the people too
long over the free coinage of silver.
The tide has turned against Wall
treet's manipulation OF the finances of
this country, and it would be better to
establish permanent peace on the coin
age question while peace is yet posi-
BILE, rather than undertake to force
down the throats of people
that they will not have.
The opening of the popular bid for
bonds by the secretary of the treasury
the tact that there are
thousands of people in this country
outside of the European-American syn
dictate ready TO advance money 10 the
government whenever 1t needs finan-
cial help. The government is not yet
ready TO go into bankruptcy, with an
syndicate as re-
and Wall street has ample
proof of this fact in The face of the bid
for bonds. So great was the popular
for these bonds hat an unpre-
number of clerks were not
even able 10 arrange and tabulate the
names of the bidders on the one day
-he bids were opened.
On former deals the European
American syndicate made 81 ,000, 900
out of its bond dickers. This seems to
nave called Secretary Carlisle away
temporarily from worshiping at the
shrine of The golden calf long enough
% direct Il popular loan and 10Y if
he will turn his face towards the peo-
pie and resolve 10 use both gold and
in the redemption OF treasury
he will not have occasion
10 sell any more bonds.
The day is coming very soon when
money lenders will moi be able TO raid
gold in the United States treasury
every time there is u chance for a
speculation. Public sentiment is
such a policy, and the people
will elect men to Office who are in
accord with their views.

The fabulously rich gold mining dis

The reason the Lexington editors did
not act as secretaries of Higginsville's

The Lexington editors appreciate
honors when they come from reliable
