Our Republican friends have
had the opportunity of a life
time to show the people that
the Republican party is oppos,
ed to trusts and will prevent
them from robbing the people.
With the president and con,
gress Republican there is no ex.
cnse for the Republican party
failing to protect the people. A
good antitrust bill should have
been passed in Congress and it
would have been passsd if tn
Republicans ever intend to give
the country any antitrust leg
islation. An antitrust plank
in the Republican platform will
be simply to catch votes.

Hands Off Brassworks.

this matter (the Joanna bridge)
and first consider the most suit
able place for the taxpayers of
Saline in order to get way to
the county seat at any time
during the year. That is to say,
the most economical way is the
best. Suppose we join Clay
township and build bridge at
Spalding then the costs would
be about one half as at any
other point upon the river. The
idea of those Monroe City pa
pers wanting a bridge at Joanna
for the ben eft of Monroe City
is simply building bridge for
Monroe County instead of Rails
county. We will just mention
Center as Il trading place let
alone New London, our county
seat. where a man can buy most
anything he wants and bridge
at Spalding would make routes
comparatively the same for ex-
IRENE points. We don't doubt
Monroe City is a good business
town but that is not the reason
why our citizens want a bridge.
Take for instance our Circuit
and County Courts our men
have to attend and bridge at
Spalding would be far more ben
eticial to the majority of citi-
zens residing in Saline and Clay
townships than any one place.
Rails county is now indebted in
railroad bonds and her taxpay-
ers cannot afford to build hut
one bridge at this present time.
We do not wish for any conflict,
nor do we censure any man for
the whole thing.-Hummer, in
Rails County Record.
The foregoing is bold state.
ments and pure rot. There has
been no estimate of cost of a
bridge at Spalding, therefore
Hummer does not know wheth-
er it would cost seven or seven
ty.thousand dollars. Monroe
City papers have never asked
Rails county to build a bridge
or a foot of road for it. But the
Monroe City DEMOCRAT has
worked for good roads and
bridges in Monroe, Marion and
Rails counties and the mer-
chants of this city have always
been liberal in assisting the
farmers of said counties in Sc
curing anything of general ben
eft. AS far as Ceutre and Per.
ry are concerned Ito say moth
ing Of New London) a bridge
at Spalding would. take the
trade Chat Monroe City will
never reach) direct to Hannibal.
AS tor a bridge at Spalding we
say there ought to be one but
all of the bridges of the county
should not be punched aud just
as soon as Spalding and Hanni-
bal raises one half of the cost of
it according to Hummer, Salt
River must grow smaller nearer
its mouth) the DEMOCRAT says
build it and any assistance this
paper can give it will do so
cheerfully. Until Hummer
knows what he is writing about
he ought to keep pencil off of
paper and his hands off of the
brassworks. Financially the
Little Kingdom is in fine shape
for road and bridge work and
its progressive farmers and cit.
liens ought to take advantage
of the fact and build both roads
and bridges. AT the present
time Rails Cnnntu is the worst

compliments to the bravery, charac-
ter and great ability of the southern
troops and their generals. but held
that the war for the preservation OF
the federal union was necessary, just
and victorious. He congratulated
the congregation on our national
unity and marvellous prosperity and
on the fact that great southern sol
diers like Lee and Wheeler were fight
ing beside Grant and Macarthur for
the honor OF our country's flag. He
described the physical magnificence Of
the nation and its splendid progress
in education, agriculture manufac-

we had reached a period when the
graves OF both armies receive equal
honor and decorations. He pictured
the tremendous debt our nation owes
to its soldiers representing all parties
and creeds.
