Sam Cooks Fight on Bob White.


The Paris Mercury takes whack at
the Missousian for presuming to say
that Bob White was Democrat. The
Platte City Landmark, Marshall Prog
ress and many other papers in this
State, whose Democracy has never
been questioned, deplore the fight
waged by Sam Cook on Bob White.
The fact is, there is strong Impress
ion extant that Sam Cook is willing
to advance his personal interests as
an avowed candidate for the office of
Governor of Missouri at the expense
of the Democratic party, and few
newspapers are so anxious to bolster
up his claims to office that they are
willing to get rid of their opponents
by summarily reading them out of the
party. The editor of the Marshall
Progress, referring to his efforts to
bring about a reconciliation between
Messrs. Cook and White, said: "He
(Cook) seems to be more interested
in Cook as candidate than he is in
harmonizing and combining the
strength OF Missouri Democracy. Be-
ing himself candidate, he ought to
resign his position as q member OF the
committee" This tells the whole

those mentioned for the honor are
Messrs. John o'Day and Ed. T. Orear.
The latter, by reason Of the splendid
work he done for Governor Stephens,
has shown his fitness for such m i'm
portant position, and we believe the
party could do NO better than honor
him with the position. He IL q splen-
