S crstary of Agriculture Wilson

and lot of other republican wind
tanners sought to cohv.nce the
people that dollar wheat, Dingley
tariff AID the gold standard were an
inseparable trinity? With crop
shortages every where, why isn't the
wheat market on the jump? II you

Secretary, don't tell us what the

A Good Deal sfStake.

Nevada mo Mail.
Every democrat in every county
and town in Missouri should take an
interest 10 the present campaign.
The issues involve not only the
material welfore of grand old Mis-
souri,, but farther--a United States
Senator is to be elected by the next
Legislature.
Hence, while republicans have
little or no hope of electing any state
officer, there is no doubt that the
republicans are directing e vigorous
fight to capture Legislative districts,
with the hope of defeating that
stalwart old democrat and rugged
statesman, Frank Cockrell.
If the republicans can, by comb
nation, schemes and 9 slush fund
get control of the next legislature, a
millionaire railroad magnats like
Kerens, or some plant tool Of cor.
porate power, would unquestionAbly
be chosen.
Instead OF democrat for silver,
the republicans would displsce him
with q gold bug and defender Of
trusts.
The issues are vital and far-reach
ing in results. Can any democrat,
therefore, become Indifferent to the
county. legislative. senatorial, con-
eressional or state ticket! Not by
any means.
Democrats should organize for
decisive victory all along the line.

yellow pumpkin, sings the editor OF

orchards are barred of stufing for
pies; when peaches and apples have
both been a failure, and berries of

fondly we turn to the fruit that our

old yellow pumpkin, the big bellied
pumpkin, the mud covered pumpkin
that makes such good pies.
