Thomas Il. Wardell, appointment
business man of Macon, who owns
the Mexico electric light plant, won
seven hats on the election, says a
special from Macon. Most of the
parties with whom he bet were
members of the Methodist church.
He put a large placard containing
the names of those who had not
paid up, in the large window in
front of his office.
A highly interested crowd inn
mediately gathered around the
unique attraction, and the losers
soon a the only way they could
get out of it and square themselyes
with the church, was to settle up,

Concerning New Postmasters.

Speaking Of applications for post

be decided after March 4 will be

lous of the department. II will he a
great Disappointment to hundreds of
thousands of Republicans in the VAR
ious States who hoped to get Into
office under the administration of the
next four years. There are some so,
600 post offices, aud the current work
of the department, filling changes
caused by deaths aud r~esigna,ions, Is
very heavy. The Post Office Depart
ment officials would not unnecessarily
undertake the enormous work Of
making any thing like wholesale
changes. No reapuintment in these
cases is necessary. The commission
runs indefinitely. at the discretion of
The Postmaster General. New bonde
are required from time 10 time, but
the commission Is not for a fixed per-
iod. The other tenth, namely the
presidential offices. are filled for a
period OF four years. Changes In
these might be made. but the vacan-
cies would be scattered through the
entire administration; and the result
certainly will be that there Is little
prospect for appointment OF Repub-
licans to any OF these offices, except
vacancies arise naturally. This will
not be good to many Republican
workers who would like TO get post
offices for themselves or trends, but
it can be relied upon. Moreover, there
is little probability OF sweeping
changes in any OF the departments.
The Republicans generally are IN pos
session OF them, aud were appointed
BY stroug influences, which no doubt,
will be able 20 secure their retention.
The great amount OF extra work put
upon a department by Il policy OF
general changes will insure strong
opposition to such a course by prac'
ically all the Cabinet officials.

is the conversation:

ThAr SCHOOL ruNn.

The readers of the tribune will
be kept posted as to what tho
Legislature will do with the school
fund investment. Ii our demo-
cratic brethren were right in their
contention they will do nothing
toward a change of that invest
ment. They contend thatthe bond
ed debt will be paid OF in two
years and II il should be, then the
iO-uent levy win cease. When it
ceases, how will they raise the
money to pay the interest on the
certificate of Indebtedness? We
believe they will attempt TO do
something for this trust fund,
and if they do, it will be an ac-
acknowledgement that they were
wrong before the election. Hthey
don't there win be no state school
fund after the bonds are paid two
years hence. Watch.

beginner in practice, had occasion
to attend a trial as a witness. The
opposing counsel in cross examin-
ing the young doctor made several
sarcastic remarks, doubling the
ability of so younga man to UNI
derstand the profession.
"Do you know the symptoms OF

VERY THANKFUL.
Col. FIory Responds TO Numerous
Congratulations.

Wednesday Col. Flory, Repub-
lican candidate for Governor, gave
to a representative of the Republic
can the following statement:
am in receipt of too many
letters and kilograms of congratu-
lation from home and abroad to
make any other than a general re-
Spouse of thankfulness through the
press.
To one and all, representatives
of the party, the people and the
press, and especially to those st.
Louis organs of my party, the
Globe Democrat and the Star, |
beg the acceptance of my most
grateful acknowledgements. | re-
gard these congratulations as the
sweetness of defeat.
| accepted the candidacy for
Governor in the hope of carrying
the State for Mckinley, but with
the understanding among the
people that election laws had been
enacted for the three large cities
of Missouri, which were solely in
the interests of our political oppon-
ents. With the experience of Ken
tuclsy, of which this policy was a
worse imitation, I entered on the
canvass. My success, which meant
the of Mckinley, depended
on an honest ballot and a fair
count in the city of st. Louis.
/ met with the most hearty and
enthusiastic encouragement in up
holding the Mckinley banner of
glory, progress and prosperity in
every town, city and hamlet in
Missouri. visited more than so
counties and made more than 300
speeches.. and the returns show
that in the State, outside of st,
Louis city, | carried the Mckinley
banner to a triumph that with a
fair, honest count in st. Louis,
Kansas City and st. Joseph, would
have given the great chief of our
party the State of Missouri by a
handsome majority.
lam quite contented with having
been one of the banner-bearers in
this great battle for Mckinley,
glory and prosperity.
In conclusion, | beg to assure the
Republicans of Missouri that an
other four years of the Mckinley
administration will prove the re-
demption of their beloved state.
| shall be in the harness continu-
ously, whether it be in an humble
or exalted station, working fol
purity in politics, honest home
government. and the triumph OF
Republican party principles.-,Jeff-

The Cause of II.

The Columbia Herald says, in
speakingof the election, that mon
ey did it. The Republicans and
Mark Hanna, the Herald says,
bought the election. 1t claims that
the Democratic party was right in
fathering all the issues that flesh
is heir to, and the converse of the
proposition must be that the voters
were wrongin endorsing Mckinley.
The Standard takes up the Her
AIDS article and gives it space and
says Amen.
Bryan's says the prosperity ar
gument did more than anything
else to defeat the Democrats. Since
the Herald, the Standard and Bryan
have all been wrong on so many
questions of late, we are inclined
to think that their opinions, politi-
cally, do not amount to very
much.
The cause of it, to our minds, is
that the patriotic people distrusted
Bryan and his cohorts and be-
hcved in Mckinley and were not
afraid TO vote the way they be-
lieved.

LINcoLN,s PICTURE FELL.

WASHINGTON. Nov S--With a
crash that resounded through the
length and breadth of the Whit
House, the heavily framed hf
size painting of Abraham Lincoll
fell from its place on the wall o
the famous East room this after
noon.
The noise was so great that 1t
was heard distinctly by the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Mckinley in the
residential portion of the mansion,
and they sent a messengerin haste
to learn the cause
The portrait of the martyred
President was painted especially
for the White House and is one
of the four that hung in the
East room, the others being Mar
tina and George Washington and
Thomas Jefferson.
1t was suspended from n cornice
over one OF the windows, and this
cornice had given way. The gilt
frame OF the picture was broken to
atoms, but, fortunately, so far as
a cursory examination has shown,
the painting itself, with the ex-
ception of a few slight scratches,
escaped injury.
A minute search of the canvass
will be made, however, as the por-
trait is said to be the best extant OF
President Lincoln, and Mr.. Mckin-
ley has given orders that any dam
age to it be Immediately repaired.
What caused the accident is not
known with certainty, but as work.
men have recently been rebuilding
a staircase in the east wing, it is
supposed the constant hammerine
lloosened the cornice. The incident
is important at this time inasmuct
as it will likely result in directing
the attention of the Congress thai
is soon to assemble, to the dilapi'
dated state of the White House.

Where did he carry them to d? We
don't see how he carried them and

to carry a large class OF voters that

sensible than American voters and
the way they repudiated Bryan

UNJUST AND UNFAIR.

tRA'AAAANh IL 10
last weeks issue a very unjust and
unfair criticism on our public
schools. Those who are in a posi-
ton to know the facts concerning
our High school band boys, the
Faculty and the Board Of Educa-
ton car not understand why such
an uncalled for and unjust criticism
should eminate from II distin-
guished contemporary. We beg
the forbearance OF our readers for
re-printing the Standards ar
ticle.
The band boys at the high school
using instruments purchased by
popular subscription OF the citizens
OF the town, were not dismissed to
enable them to play for the demo-
cratic rally, and did not get out
until about noon for that purpose.
The next day when the republi-
cans had their big speaking, the
boys ere out in full force early
and remained all day. These facts
were noticed by many persons.
This is the first time in the his
tory of Montgomery's high school
that politics have played any part
In its conduct in any manner. The
democrats ofthe district in the last
two school elections, refused to
put up a partisan ticket but elected
republicans along with the demo-
Gratis, as usual, and this is the
fruitage.
Partisan politics should not be
allowed to play any part in the
conduct of the school. No person
who allows his public actions or
conduct or his judgment to be
warped by his political prejudices
is the proper material for either a
teacher or a member of the board,
where people of different politics
are residents of the district and
patrons of the school, no matter
how exemplary he may be other
wise as an individual.
1t will never do for our school to
be allowed to become a republican
nursery, nor a democratic nurs-
cry. II necessary to keep partisan
politics barred the ''whole shooting
match" directors, teachers and all,
should be ''fired." The people
here cannot AFFORD to have their
school used for partisan ends, and
we think they will not.
AS to the first charge. the band
boys were dismissed on ThursdaS
in time TO play IN the parade a
they had agreed, the lower grade
being dismissed at II rs a. m. Or
Friday the band boys were let out
just before noon to play one or two
pieces. The lower grades were
not dismissed on Friday until one
o'clock p. m.
The Standard says this is the
first time in the history of our
school that partisan politics has
had any part in the conduct OF the
school. We must confess that we
are unable to e any just now.
The schools were dismissed prac-
tically at the same time both
days.
We are unwilling to believe that
the teachers thought for one
moment that they were playing the
politician in doing as they did.
The Board of Education certainly
took 20 action either way. The
criticism by the Standard in both
cases is entirely uncalled for and
unjdst. AS to the cheap street
language which the classic writer
in the Standard uses, we have very
little to say. That it bespeaks de-
generacy and decrepitude, no one
can deny. That it was "conceived
in sin and born in iniquity" all
fair-minded people must concede
With these passing remarks We
leave the Standard writer with his
sorrow and anguish.
