City Election.

The city election Is booked
for Tuesday, April 4th, the reg
ular annual day. There are
three alderman to be elected.
The terms expiring are those of
A. Boulware, j. S. Scott and
Judge j. W. Bell. The three
gentlemen have held the office
for years. They fully under
stand and appreciate the condi,
tion and needs of the city.
They are progressive, yet eco
nomical. The interests of the
city is their interests and last,
but not least they are in perfect
working harmony with the bal
ance of the board, therefore, the
DEMOCRAT suggests that the
three gentlemen be re elected,
for the good reason that it is to
the interest of the city to keer
the best qualified men at the
head of it's government.

Sand Stone.

The Monroe sand stone is the
finest building material in the
State. The stone which has
been used here does not mildew
like the Ohio stone, nor does it
show moisture like it. The
trimmings of the Baptist church
were made of it aud it passed
through the fire and came out
of it 20. K" while the lime
stone close to it and subjected
to the same heat crumbled,
thereby proving that the sand
stoue is 4 superior building
material. Some one ought t'
take the quarry, advertise it aud
then push it for there is goof
market awaiting it if the out
side world only knew that il
was here.

colored aud it is not the first

been sent over the road. 1t

each of them 110 days in the

As OTHERS
SEE Him.

1t is much to be regretted that
so far in his Legislative career
there is little or nothing in all
that he has suggested to show
any kinship Of feeling on the
part of Representative White
cotton with the interests of the
plain people. All his sympa-
thieS seem to go the other way.
His latest effort is a concurrent
resolution submitting consti-
tutional amendment providing
for the Increase of corporation
fees charged by the State to
$3.50 for all amounts up to $25,-
900. and $40 for each additional
$4,000 of capital stock. Such
a law would be special hard
ship on small companies, and
on associations organized by a
number of small capitalists to
enable them to compete with
larger concerns. 1t would in
fact prohibit the organization
of small incorporated companies
and leave the field open to the
trusts and the big concerns. If
Mr.. Whitecotton were a special
agent for the latter he could
not pursue a course more in
their interest than he has done
during the present session. In
stead of increasing corporation
fees they ought to be greatly
| reduced, especially with refer
encc to small companies. A
graded system, starting with a
merely nominal fee for compa
uies having capital of $40, 0O(
or less, and increasing it rapid
ly above that amount, woulC
possess the elements of justice
but if the State should exact I
> fee of $3.50 for every incorpora
tiou it would amount to Il pro
: hibition of small companies ant
), deprive the common people o
0 all benefits IN the 'corporativ,
laws of their State. Viewed il
:. this light the proposed measur,
is wholly in the interests of th'
great octopi that are crushing
the life out of trade.
Mr.. Whitecotton knows. oi
It ought to llnow-and we asser
s that he does kuow-that corpo
d rations do not get their CONNER
J cial ratings and credits on tn
e basis of their incorporated cap
ital, but on the standing an
r. reputation of the companies an'
is their managers. The iucorpC
Ie ration, in fact, has a tendenc
# to lessen the credit OF the CON
pauy, because it binds the in
=, corporators only for the spec
y fed amount of capital. But, o
" the other hand, the incorpora
=, ton laws afford. the means I
" combinations and concert of AZ
tion on the part of the peopl
= which they cannot obtain in an
other way; and this featur
" should be encouraged by grea
ly reducing the States fees o
all small concerns. The Mi
souri, law is already oppressiv
- in this respect. and it ought
> be amended for the better. TT
" other States are much more IL
eral, and justly so, in those tea
ures of their incorporation Law
which especially effect the i
,g terests of the masses of the pc
no pie, If Mr., Whitecotton' $ res
n. luton should pass and be su
Ie. mitted to the people, he will |

three fires were started by the
insurgents at Santa Cruz. Ton
do, and the Binondo Market.
The natives cut the hose imped-
ing the work of the firemen.
The firing of the city was the
result of carefully planned
incendiary plot, The houses
fired were marked by a red
cross as guide to the insurgent
torch bearers. One American
officer and two privates were
wounded in the streets during
the skirmish. The city is we'll pa
trolled but the fire department
is weak. The plan worked
well, but an attempted raising
of thenatives in the city proved
abortive. The American troops
were forced to use their weap-
ons in the streets with terrible
effect. There was terrible
loss of property, 1t is thought
the plan was to massacre the
, entire population of the city.
