The suggestion that the United States
government should withdraw its support or
patronage from the Paris exposition OH ac-
count OF the Dreyfus decision is ill-advised
as the act is IL does not concern us as a
nation, and should not be made an inter-
national affair. The people. in their individ-
ual capacity. may boycott the exposition as
much as they please. and so may firms. cor
porations, societies and organizations, but
the government must maintain the even
tenor of its way.

1t is fortunate for the new county and
township reform laws that the appoint
ment OF the first boards devolved on the
circuit judges. AS a rule they selected men
well qualified for the work in hand and with
sufficient public spirit to do 1t to the best
OF their ability. The result is that the new
system is being inaugurated under the best
possible auspices and a standard is being
established which the people will have to
try and maintain when the time comes for
electing boards.

Queen Victoria s Fad.

Philadelphia Times: One of the pet
ideas of Queen Victoria is that she is
descended, through Zedekiah's eldest
daughter, from David, king of Israel,
and it is reported that she has just sent
to her grandson, the kaiser, copy of
her much-prized family tree with the
great Psalmist at the top. 1t is not un-
likely that the resourceful chronicler
who manufactured the pedigree intend
ed to place Adam in the position Of
progenitor-in- chief, and that her majesty
very promptly and very properly object
ed to this, sacrificing antiquity to re-
spectability. Adam, as everybody
knows, has no ancestors. He could
mover boast Of his grandfather, as the
kaiser boasts of his, and whatever Ewes
marital cares and vexations we're she
never had thrown in her face the refec-
ton that her mother-in-la could have
made better apple dumplings than she.
Besides, Adam was only a gardener,
while David was king. The former
roved about Eden without second suit
OF clothesthe less said about the first
suit the better--while the latter had pur-
plo and fine linen by the barrel When,
therefore, 1t came tothe matter of choos-
ing an ancestor, as between a gardener
and a king, Victoria properly selected
the king. Any American multi-million-
aire-indeed, We might even go the
length CT saying ,any colonial dame
would have done the same and more
would have planted the tree thus obtain
cd Ia the back yard to stand n perpetual
source Of envy to their nelghbors.

strange that Queen Yiebasia should

The Great Campaign of 1000.

The policies of the great political par
ties are now being formed and the can
didates discussed. The voice of the peo-
pie as recorded by ballot at the approach
ing presidential election will probably
decide the policy of the nation for the
next decade. Every citizen must study
the great questions that are to come be-
fore the. people. This can only be done
through the medium of great news
paper. Now is the time, therefore, for
every voter to subscribe for the best and
most reliable newspaper obtainable.
The semi weekly Republic covers the
whole field of political news. While it
is democratic, it publishes the news in
regard to all political parties without
prejudice. Its telegraphic and cable
news service is superior to that of any
other paper. Its special features are
the best. In fact, it is the paper for that
large class of readers who cannot offord
or do not have access to the daily papers.
Attention is called to the Republics
Sunday magazine. Its half-tone illustra-
tions are alone worth the subscription
price. 1t is made up of special articles
by the best literary talent, embracing
a variety of subjects of current interest.
News features of absorbing interest are
illustrated and enlarged upon. For the
benefit of the ladies the latest fashions
are illustrated. The Republic Sunday
magazine is always interesting to every
member Of the family.
The subscription price of the semi
weekly Republic is $t.00 per year. The
Republic Sunday magazine $l.25 per
year. Both papers are now being offer
ed at the very low price of Sl,50 for one
year. To secure this low rate both must
be ordered and paid for at the same time.

Mo-, the other day, Champ Clark
said: Il have said repeatedly-I say
now-that from the day when Silas
Woodson, the first democratic gov
ernor after the war, was sworn in,
down to the present moment in the
9th month of Lon V. Stephens third
year, the democratic administration
of the financial affairs of Missouri is
one of unparalleled glory and one
which any man can successfully de.
fend who is not like Sut LovIngood's
daddy, "a natural born FOOL There
is nothing like it in all history. In
twenty six years we have paid off
our twenty millions of state debt
and over one hundred millions of
county, township and municipal
debts, bequeathed to us by the re-
publicans, and at the same time re-
duced the rate Of taxation by three
fourths of what it was in the days of
republican misrue. In 1873 Mis-
souri, 6 per cent bond was hawked
about the markets of the world at q
discount. Now, by reason of the hon
esty, wisdom and fidelity Of demo.
cratic state officials, a Missouri 81
per cent bond sells at such premi-
um that it is really 3 per cent
bond, which proves that under dem
ocratic auspices Missours's credit
is actually higher than that of the
federal government; for United
States bond is non-taxable and a
Missouri bond is taxabIe-when
found This is the record in Mis-.
souri-an impregnable record-a
record uneqnaIcdand unapproached
by any state or government since
states and governments were first
instituted among men. 1t con
stitutes the Missouri democracy
indefeasiblc title to lmpcrishable re-
nown. Nor has it been accom-
pIished by a niggardIy conduct Of
affairs; for, while democratic admin
istratirn has been economical, at
the same time it has been liberal,
broad and progressive. The public
school fund has been increased un-
til it is the largest per capita school
fund in the Union; the university
endowment has been augmented by
nearly u million dollars; new
oleemosynary institutions have
been built; and every branch Of the
public service has been improved"
