AGAINST A STONE WALL

The HigginsyiIls Advance wants
son,e excuse to altsck the democratic
state administration, and complains Of
high taxes. The Advance could not
have attacked more impregnable pc
si,iOn. When republicans were in au-
thoriiy they squsndered thir,y-e'ght
millions in order TO islten their favor
ties. aod turned over TO the state four
teen millions. Their present candidate
for Judge Of The supreme court, e. A.
F,nkelnburg, was = member of the
legislature; be was 3 member Of the
committee appointed to examine the
states securities; he and the whole
committee reported that the securities
were ALL GOOD, AND WORTH THEIR
FACE.
The republican legislature then or
dered the sale Of thirty-eight million
dollars Of securities, and confirmed the
sale 10 their tavorites, for the sum OF
fourteen million dollars, which was
applied to the state debt.
When these securities were sold,
there were other bidders besides The
successful ones, but though they BIZ
HIGHER, they were not allowed to take
the property.
The republicans have ever since
"pOinied with pride" to the record they
made in paying fourteen millions OF
the state debt.
Under republican management thu

as u Is now. tt
Under republican management onl

The Higginsville Thalbote Is the nrst
paper in the county to net the Spaniard,
and resort to dlsgraceful methods to In
tluence the election. In its last issue Il
contains circular, full Of abuse, but
there are no names signed TO the circu-
lar. 1t says the circular is authorized
by democrats Anybody with a grain
of sense knows that democrats did not
authorize such statements. No name oil
any democrat is given and none can be
gwen. There is sottenness In every
statement in the circular, and not even
a republican would sign his name to it..
Such methods are unworthy OF decent
people. The circular tries to get W
hard feelings between Germans and
Americans. Judge Filing, who has an
article in the Thalbote, has twice been
elected to Office by democratic votes
Julius vogt has always been popular
with the democratic party. There wert
three candidates in the eastern district
and they ran all in a bunch. Mr. Nc
Queen was fairly nominated. and al
democrats ought to support him. Ws
