ATTORNEY GENERAL Crow has in
Cured the wrath Of certain drug
dealers in st Louis and Kansas
City because he prosecuted them for
maintaining trust and they now
pledge themselves to prevent his
election. Not satisfied with a severe
attack on General Grow IN their
journal, the National Druggist,
published in st. Louis, they make
q general indirect attack on the
democratic state government, says
the State Tribune. They undertake
to show how General Grow is re-
sponsibIe for the street railway trust
law, when they know, or ought to
know, he did all in his power to
prevent its passage and after Its
passage, tried to get the governor
to veto it, and fails to mention the
fact that O'Fallon, Crows opponent
was a member of the Legislature and
voted for the railway bill 1t raises
such a fuss about. General Grow
has made one of the most faithful
officials the state ever had and if be
is to be turned down for dlscharging
his duty, then we are to understand
that "a public office" is not "a puo'
lie trust but is subservient to GER
tain "trust' interests regardless Of
the interests of the general public
General Crow has carefully guarded
the interests of the people and the
people will see to it, that these
efforts, to injure and maligna good
official, fail to accomplish their pur
pose.

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE GLoBE-DRMoCRAT:
LUTESVILLE, MO-, September q.
Hon. Ed Rozier, of St. Louis, address,
ed large and appreciative audience at
the court house in Marble Hill this even
ing at 1880. His speech was considered
the best that has been delivered at this
place during the campaign. 1t was clear
elucidation of the trust, tariff, free silver,
imperialism and state issues. After his
speech several who have always voted
the democratic ticket expressed them
selves as intending to vote the republic
can ticket this election.
ANOTHER joke has been perpetrated
on the obe-Democrat. Quite number
of democrats were present and heard
Mr.. Rozier speak, but what has become
Of those who were converted, no one ap-
pears to know.

The Lane that Had No Trrning

Since adventuring into Egypt in quest
of the raw material of which flctiCn is
made, Mr.. Gilbert Parker's canadian
fields have been lying fallow. He returns
to them, however, with new vigor, and
even fuller power; and the serial which
he has just completed finds him at the
highest dramatic level to which he has
yet attained.
The Lane that Had No Turning is re-
markable for its honest strength,
thorough originality, and absorbing
interest. The scene of the story is
Pontiac (whither Valmond came), and
the period the middle fifties. The lead
ing characters are Madelinette, a famous
singer, and her husband, Seignior Of
Pontiac, for whom she dares all and
risks all. The story gains interest as it
progresses and concludes with a striking
and wholly unexpected finale.
The Lane that Had No Turning will
begin in THE SATURDAY EVENING PosT
for September 20, and run through five
numbers.

S455,000 of the States 81 per cent in
terest bearing bonds we're called in for
redemption October 20. The interest
bearing debt of Missouri will then
amount to $1,892,000. The constitution
requires that $3.50, 900 Of the debt be paid
annually, which would amount TO
$1,000,0O0 in four years. But with the
next, October Goth payment, the present
administration will have paid So, ,108,OO0
of the States indebtness. A meeting
of the Fund Commissioners has been
called for December, when, between
100000 and $3OO,000 more in bonds will
be redeemed, which will further reduce
the bonded debt of the state, which will
then amount to about ST 100000. At the
present rate little more than a year of
the next administration with Mr. Dockery
at the helm of course, the bonded debt of
Missouri will be wiped out and the
already low tax rate, will be reduced to
fifteen cents on the $100 valuation. No

Hon. GEORGE r. LIFE, Democra tic

HON. GEORGE L. LIFE, DemOCra tic
candidate for State Senator made a
speech here Monday night. Hon.
John A. Hope was billed to speak
but was sick and Mr.. Lee filled his
appointment. 1t was not known,
or at least, by very few, that Mr..
Lee would be here, in fact the ap-
poiLtment had not been very we'll
advertised and the farmers all very
busy, the audience was not a large
one, but was we'll entertained by
Mr.. Lee, although his voice was in
a bad condition and the effort a
labored one. He discussed the is.
sue of imperialism at length and in
forcibIe language explained how,
through militarism and the power
full influences of the great corpora
tons, the liberties of the people
are being encroached upon, and
how the present administration is
responsible for these conditions.
He then gave his attention to State
issues, and in plain terms explained
how the republican party wasted
the States securities, diverted the
school funds, and left q bonded in
debtedness of more than $2l 100000
for which the people never receiv.
ed anything but the great satisfact'
ION of being taxed to pay 1t off.
He then explained how, under
democratic administrations, the
debt has been almost wiped out,
the States credit built up, taxation
reduced to a lower rate than anv
other state in the union, and how
we possess the largest school fund,
and the most perfect school system
in the country. He then gave Joe
Flory his attention showing how
ridiculous his arguments in regard
to the extravaganza of the demo
cratic party in Missouri, and his
TRADE against expenses at the
Governors Mansion received special
attention. He concluded by ex'
planning to the people that the cleri
cal force of the the last legislature,
of which so much has been said was
none to large after the session set
tied down to business, and how by
the curtailment of the force the
session was prolonged, and the ex
penses thereby increased. Mr.. Lee
made a good speech which was
highly appreciated and a number
of times applauded by the audience
Hon. Robert Drum was then called
for. and made short appropriate
speech 10 regard to the clerical
force of the last legislature in which
he fully explained that the force
= was not an extravagant one.

that on account of the fear of smallpox,

ferred to in my speeches, in my
judgment were purchased for the

JOSEPH FLORY.,'
While 1t is a matter of little con-
Germ, so thoroughly trifing and un-
reliable has the republican candi-
date shown himself, we simply de-
sire to call the attention of the
public to these letters. In the first
one he said: "The ammunition lam
using is all prior to his Governor
Stephens administration, so far as
Mansion expenses are concerned"
In his second letter to the press,
which he gave out from the republi-
can committee headquarters, crosses
wires again and says: "The articles
referred to in my speeches, in my
judgment, were purchased for the
Governors Mansion, without war
rant, and paid for by the States
money!
We have proven by his republi-
can friends that Mr.. Flory has so

only barefaced falsefer, but one
too small and cowardly and con-

to stand from under.
Hanna is q case in point. He
has suddenly conceived the idea
that he is the "boss orator of the

The Rising Fortunes of Mr.. Bryan.

The Bankers Magazine, a New
York publication devoted to fnan-
cial matters, in its current Septem-
ber number, says the Kansas City
Times, pays involuntary tribute to
the growing strength of Mr.. Bryan
when it edltorially says: "Tbe
friends of sound money and the
opponents of free coinage of silver
should regard with great solicitude
the rising fortunes of the candinate
ofthe democratic party 1t further
warns the money power of the
country "that there is no inherent
force in the law (the law demonetiz-
ing silver) to prevent the overturn
of the gold standard In case the
majority of the people of the United
States place in power an administra.
tion and congress pledged to the re-
monetizatlon of silver by authoriz-
ing its recolnage."
The regret is not concealed in
the quoted extracts that it is in the
power Of q majority of the people,
to alter the law at their pleasure.
Wall street has discovered that the
"majority of the people" is not
behind the silver demonstration
law lately enacted, and that it is
not so buttressed by combined capi-
tai that it can not be overthrown by
the people. The logic of the argu-
ment Is that majority of tho peo.
