Gov. Dockery during the
campaign invited Joe Flory to
look over the books at Jefferson
City. Will Mr.. Flory accept
the invitation and look over the
books to see what had become
of the school fund? As Il good
citizen he should do so and af.
ter he has examined the books
he should tell the people just
how he found things. If the
Democrats have been stealing
Joe Flory should be in position
to give accurate information.
Then if he finds the school fund
all safe and the books straight
he should tell the people the
truth about the matter.

Opposition Not Obstruction.


the fifty sixth congress, Sena
tor Jones expresses the opinion
that his party associates in The
senate and house will not re
sort TO obstructive tactics tc
defeat or delay the Legislative
programme determined upon by
the republicans.
While he does not think the
result of the elections turned SC
much on the issues that will be
brought forward in congress as
upon the desire of many PEG.
pie to let well enough alone, he
believes in the government of
the majority, and that his col
leagues Will give due weight to
the idea that the country has
voted in favor of the republi-
cans.
1t is probable that democrats
in congress will reason about
this matter pretty much as
Senator Jones does. They will
not feel called upon to obstruct
the republican, programme for
the Philippines except in SO far
as it attempts the fasting upon
the country OF Il permanent
standing army OF large porpor.
tions They will endeavor.
while agreeing to whatever in
crease may be deemed necessary
to accomplish the restoration
OF peace aud order Elm the
islands, to defeat with the par
liamentry weapons at their com
mand the passage of any bill
which erects upon firm foot
ing an immense military estab
lishment similar TO the ones
that are grinding the faces of
the taxpayers in European coun
tries
Democrats in both branches
of congress may be relied upon
to register an emphatic disap-
proval, by their voices and |
votes, Of every measure
brought forward by the repub,
lican majority that is hostile to
those time.honored principles
which the democracy has
always commended were vital to
the happiness, welfare and in.
terests of ali the people
1t can confidently be relied on
that the democrats in congress
will denounce and disapprove
the ship subsidy steal for the
of predatory cor.
porations. They will protest,
as vigorously as may be,
against the ratification of the
Hay'Pauncefote treaty, which
recognizes the right of a foreign
nation to dictate the conditions
under whicc an enterprise, APP
proved by American of all
parties and to be built by Am.
ericau skill, with American
money and throuhg American
territory, shalt be conducted.
In Il word, the plan the demo,
Gratis will pursue in congress
will be to oppose whatever
legislation they deem inimical
20 the best interests of the
people and subversive of the
fundamental principles of our
system of COVE. nment, but not

ANACONDA'S POPULATION.

The Anaconda census enumerators, E.
A. Waterbury, James Hicks, c. A. At
water, Chris Steurnagle and l.. E. Beau
dry, have received checks for their SER
vices from the census bureau. None of
these gentlemen can offer a prediction as
to when the result of late demonstrating
in Anaconda will be made known. Each
of them of course knows the exact num-
Der of persons who resided in the dis
trict which they enumerated but 1T is
contrary to law for them to divulge any
part of the work which came under their
jurisdiction. Just when the population
of Anaconda will be made known is un-
certain, but it is expected in the near
future. From what can be learned 1t
will show a terrible decrease, If not over
the last census, over the time r. K. Polk
& Co. compiled a city directory in 1873
which gave the city and suburbs lo,Os5
names. Polk & Co.'S directory for 1898
showed a marked decrease, which contln-
ued for a year or more but the city is
gradually filing up again until 1t IS ex-
