LITTLE BROTHERS OF THE GROUND.


Little ants in leafy wood,
Bound by gentle brotherhood,
While ye gayly gather spoil
Men arc ground by the wheel Of toll:
While ye follow blessed iates,
Men are shriveled up with hates,
Or they lie with sheeted lust.
And they eat the bitter dust.
Ye are fraters in your hall,
Gay and chainless, great and small; =,
All are toilers In the field,
All are sharers in the yield.
But we mortals plot and plah
How to grind the fellow man,
Glad to find him in pit
II We get some gain Of it.
30 with US, the sons Of time,
Labor is kind Of crime.
For the toilefs have the least,
While the idlsrs lord and feast.
Yes, our workers, they are bound.
Pallid captiyes to the ground,
Jeered by traitors, fooled by knaves,
Till they stumble into grayea.
How appesrs to tiny eyes
All this wisdom Of the wiser

Murderer Trapped.

Ex.Sheriff Pratt of Marion
County arrested Frank Johnson
(col.) at Palmyra Saturday
night and turned him over to
deputy Sheriff John w. Steph-
ems of this city Sunday morning,
who brought his prisoner first
to this city and then lodged him
in the Paris Jail Sunday after
noon. March 10, 1896 Charles
McCardell went home in daz-
ed condition and died March
II, There was a bad confused
wound on his head. For some
time the officers have known
through two of Johnson'S pals
that johnson was responsible
for Mr.. McCardell's de0 tn. The
night of the fatal 18th of March
1896, Johnson met his victim
and struck him on the head
with cane or stick that had a
heavy tap on the end of it that
goes on the BOLT that passes
Trough the fish plates that
hold the railroad rails togeth-
er. Johnson is what is known
as a bad niger. He is the
man that partially cut James
Woodson, of Stoutsville, (white)
throat with a heavy pocket
knife the evening of July 4,
1898, the day of the picnic.
The following day mob gath
cred at Stoutsville to take the
prisoner away from the Off GERS
as the train passed through
that hamlet, but the officers got
wind of the moh's intention and
took the prisoner to Shelbina
over the Burlington and then
drove to Paris. Johnson served
a short term behind the bars
for that offense. His prelimi
nary trial will come off the lat
ter part of this week.

Badly Hurt in a Runaway.

Hannibal, Aug. 20.-A fright.
full runaway occurred on the
river road about 5 o'clock Fri
day evening.
Henry Hoyle OF Hull, ILL.,, and
his son.in-law, DR.. Sperry, had
been to this city and started
home in their buggy driving
very rapidly. The team be-
came unmanageable and collid-
ed with a wagon loaded with
stone.
The buggy was badly demol'
lshed and both men were thrown
out. Mr.. Hoyle received a few
bruises and scratches, but DIR.
Sperry did not get off so we'll.
He fell under the wheels of the
wagon and was unconscious for
some time. 1t was generally
thought that he was dead but
DIR. Kabler was summoned and
after restoratives were admin
istered the doctor recovered
sufficiently to be removed tC
Roderick's shop. His Injuries
consisted of bruises and severa
scalp wounds. He had mar
row escape.

is in close quarters at last. He
went into the rubber hose busi-
ne IS single handed kept no
accounts nor did he deal with
iobbiug houses. But he did tap
B. 0. Wood for 125 feet of gar
den hose, A. Boulware for 40
feet and Il. j. Sharp for small
amount. He is now behind the
bars awaiting .sthe action of the
grand jury. He will be sent
over the road and when he re-
turns from Jefferson City he
will have graduated in devil
ment, The Whipping post

peuse and break him of his pure

Paris, Mo.

We begin to realize the why,
the Paris papers roast
their own town. Politically for
many years, when it comes to-
the county Paris has posed as
1T. Well, Paris was invited to
join the Queen of the Prairies
and folm a Monroe County del
egation to attend the grand ral-
ly at Sedalia. Paris was also
incidentally asked to contrib
ute the small sum of S15 to help
defray the band expenses, did
she accept either invitation?
Nit. She funked. She thought
it Too Hot" to go and shout for
Democracy. Well Monroe went,
she took her band, paid for it
and had a good time. Wonder
if the dry rot hasn't tackeled
the hamlet by the Court House?
Paris sent > to Sedalia, Monroe
100 or so to l. She ought to
send the banner down here for
safe keeping.
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1900-08-23

We notice that Monroe City
proposes to go to Sedalia over
two hundred strong. If this be
true Moberly should at least
add a cipher to their figures.
BY the way Monroe City is get.
ting some very high compli.
ments for her management of
the big Democratic rally she
held last week. She did what
cities of much greater preten-
tions have failed to do. She
made everybody comfortable,
even with the most extreme
heat, 1t will be hard to keep
city down that has the enter
prise to do what she has done
even if she did have to spend Z
thousand dollars. 1t is an evi
dence of business sense and en-
terprise that marks her as
wide, awake little city that pro
poses to have the world know
she is on the map. Our oul!
regret is that the extreme hea
kept Moberly from being large
ly represented and assisting t,
swell the large crowd she haC
in spite of the weather.-Mo

THE ADDRESS.
To the Democrats of Missouri:


1 am in receipt of letter
from Hon. W. r. Hearst, presi-
dent of the National Associa-
tion of Democratic Clubs, urg.
ing activity in Missouri on the
line of club organization. The
Executive Committee of the
Missouri Association issued a
call some time ago asking the
cooperation of the Democrats
of the State in this important
work. In the event Missouri is
to be represented at the Ma.
tional Convention of Clubs, to
be held in September. prompt
action must be taken.
l therefore urge the forma.
tion of clubs as rapidly as pos.
sible and that these clubs be
enrolled as members of the
State organization that they
may have representation in the
National CLUB convention. For
the present no fee from individ-
ual members of clubs will be
eXacted. Charters will be is
sued on receipt of application
accompanied by $3.50. Appli-
cations for charter will be made
to Doctor j, W. Whipp lie, treas
urer State Club Association.
Democratic Headquarters La
clede Hotel, st. Louis. Ar
rangements will probably be
made to hold a State Club Con-
vention prior to the meeting of
the national body.
Accompanying application
for charter must be a full list of
the members of the club.
trust that clubs already organ
lied will at once become con,
nected with the State organiza
tion. Organization is necessary
in this conflict. and every pa
triot should assist in the work.
Respectfully,
JOHN A. KNOTT,
President Missouri Associa
ton Democratic Clubs.

Mary Zaida Boulware.

Mary Zaida Boulware was
born Jan. 9th, 1885, died Aug.
21st, 1900 at Z p. m. Funeral
services this evening (Thurs.
day. 4. p. m. at st. Judes
Church.
Zaida was taken with the ty-
phoid fever several days ago
and after the development of
the usual symptoms, seemingly
was getting along nicely, but
that terrible disease so decep-
tive in its very nature lends
hope one hour, but to claim it S
victim the next.
The disease developed ALARM,
ing symptoms Tuesday after
noon and every thing could be
done was resorted to storm the
angel of death from an unbrok-
en- family but providence ruled
otherwise and Zaida W as taken.
Death is sad in any stage of
life but especially so in this
case. Zaida was Is years and
Z months to a day, and but one
short step step from happy
maidenhood to that of future
responsibilities of mature life,
the very period in which pa
rental love formulates it's most
accute asperarions for the pres
ent and future welfare
of their love ones. Death is no
respector of persons, and al,
ways loves shining mark
and Notwithstanding that it is
seemingly mysterious it is bu t
the way of all the earth. 1T
is not all of life to live, nor all
of death to die"
This beautiful couplet though
given birth to in the very hour
of bereavement is founded upon
philosophy of beautiful life
and the belief in the immortal Ii,
ty of the soul. What a conso.
latiou to the bereaved hearts
that it is not all of death to
die, but eventually they may
see their sainted idol, who has
gone to meet those kindred
saints who have preceded her
and bear the happy message
that their loved ones are on the
way

Tale of Woe.

Nebraska seems to be badly
in the soup. A letter from a
merchant at Atlanta says: The
prosperity is not general, We
are completely dried up. Small
grain will not pay TOR the har-
vest, fodder not fit for feed
We will not have bushel of
corn to the acre. We are ship
ping out all hogs and even lit
tie pigs and we had to ship lots
of cattle a month ago because
of lack of feed. A person can.
not make collections as his GUS
to mers have no money.

j. T. Patterson Suicides.


This city was startled and
shocked during the quiet Sab.
bath hours about II a. IN. last
Sunday, by the news that flew
from lip to lip that John Thorn.
as Patterson has blown his
brains out. Mrs. Patterson had
gone to Sunday school and re-
mained to cuurch services.
Their adopted boy, Jim Donivan,
returned home from Sunday
school to find MI. Patterson re.
clining in his rocking chair
dead. The alarm was quickly
given but life had flown instan-
taneously. He had deliberately
planned for the end, by reading
the 9th chapter of 1 Samuel,
and left his bible open, specks
on it and the following note:
"Dear Mary, The only excuse I
have for this rash act is to
spare you the ever ready SER
vice of day and night for
months as you have done for
years, working for me, for my
old complaint (stomach) that l
have tried for weeks to battle
Off, has gotten hold of me again.
May God help you to bear this
shock and may we meet soon
where disease will never enter.
Yours in Love,
j. II. p.
Evidently he then prepared
for the flight between the doors
that swing between forever
and never more, by placing a
handkerchief beneath his head
to catch the blood, and pulling
his shoes Off he grasped the
little % calibre revolver ant
sent the ball crashing into his
brain just over the right ear.
In the afternoon Judge B. F.,
Stevens held an inquest on the
body. The following were the
Jurors: VIM. Burditt, H. G
Eakle, r. K. Megown, Rev. M
L. McReynolds, J. G. Reid anC
Frank Christian. Their verdic
was death from a gun sho
wound at his own hands.
Mr.. Patterson was a consist
ent member of and prominen
in the councils of the Grac
Baptist church. Funeral ser
vices were conducted at tn
Methodist church at 8 p, IN

ADDRESS TO DEMOCRATS
ENDORSED BY STATE DEMOCRATIC
COMMITTEE.
Messrs, Bryan, Stevenson, Jones and Hearst
Advocate the Organization Of Clubs
in all Cities and Villages.

United States: The democratic |
party and it's friends must meet
the forces of corruption and in.
timidation in politics this year
by thorough organization. A
democratic club or society
should be organized in every
city, town, village and precinct
in the United States. Demo
Gratis and all who are in sympa.
thy with the principles set forth
in the Kansas City platform
are earnestly urged to join dem.
ocratlc clubs, or, when none
exists, to assist in organizing
them. This work of uniting
the forces of law and liberty
into one great systematized civ
ic army should be carried on
simultaneously in every part of
the country and without delay.
The friends of government, ac-
cording to the hitherto unchal-
leuged American theory of po-
litical equality everywhere un
der our flag, cannot afford to be
less Jealous or less active than
the advocates of an American
colonial empire supported by
rifles. No patriotic citizen can
ignore the attacks which are
being made upon the very foun'
dations of our present ire
proachable form of government.
This year every cttizen should
be politician. Clubs and So
cieties should at once communi.
cate with the secretary of the
National Association of Demo.
cratic clubs; 1870 Broadway,
New York City," so that the
united membership may work
Systematically in defense of the
republic as the fathers made
| it. All democratic committees,
state and local, are requested
to aid the National Association
of Democratic clubs in this
work.
