The Governor did well to conclude
that an extra session of the legislature
would cost more in every way than
the results could justify. A wiser
thing yet would have been to have not
agitated the question. LET the dead
and beautiful rest"

THE gall of the so-called American
who pirates of his patriotism and prays
for the subjugation of the Beers is be-
yond summing up. II he had lived in
Washington's time, loyalty would
have been his watchword. and King
George the beneficiary of his prayers.

If woeful violation of the rules of
photography and wanton murder of
the Kings English were high crimes
in St. Francois county, the ignoramus
who edits the Pennington Herald
would ever be in danger. A long list
of indictments could be returned
against him every week in the year.

THE CD. announced with glad
head lines Tuesday, that the Beers had
been repulsed at LadysmIth. The
CD. is the prince of cuckOos, but
America is not its home. Lunnon,
dear Lunnon, is it's proper abiding
place.

Hon. A. NJ. DOCKERY undoubtedly
leads in the gubernatorial race-and
leads long way ahead. He is fully
equipped with brain, experience and
integrity for so honorable a position,
and as his candidacy will lend force to
the campaign, so will his incumbency
strengthen and tend to perpetuate
Democracy's hold upon this great State.

have been very serious omission on
my part, for if had filed no statement

to draw one cent of salary, and was
liable to fine of 1000. (Secs. Z.
and Acts of 1898, p 1907 But | was
not precluded from complying with
the Act at any time, by filing a state
ment. (Sec. 9 of the Act.) The infor-
nation received by Judge Biggs, had
it been correct, was therefore of the
first Importance to me. But Judge
Biggs cid not call my attention to it.
Instead of doing so, he gave Capt
Lesueur's letter to the Globe Democrat,
and on November 18th it was published
in that sheet, emitting, however, the
name of the addressee, Judge w. H.
Biggs. Three days thereafter letter
of explanation from Capt. Lesueur was
published in the Globe, in which he
disclosed the fact that Judge w. H.
Biggs was the person who wrote him
for copy of my statement and the
person to whom he had given the
erroneous information. He further
stated that my statement had been
legally filed and within the time al
lowed by law, and copy of it was fur
nished Globe reporter as per request.
On the day Capt. Lesueur's letter was
published reporter for daily Demo
cratic newspaper of this city called on
Judge Biggs for an explanation of his
conduct in furnishing Capt. Lesueur's
letter for publication. But the Judge
would not be interviewed, would give
no explanation; all that he had to say
was that s'he and Capt. Lesueur had
always been good friends and he hoped
they would continue friends"
Judge Biggs' organ for my "protec-
ton" was the Glo6e-Dem0crdt, to which
sheet he furnished all the erroneous
information and false reports he could
elicit and gather against me for publ
cation.
To furnish material to hostile press
by which l have been maligued and
slandered, is the only kind of ''protec-
tionn that l am sensible of having re-
ceived at the hands of Judge William

If these charges, or ony comment on
hem the Judge may make; but as we
nave above asserted, if they stand I'M
'efuted, we don't see how any true
Democrat can give him support.

intelligent Englishmen maintain that Kip

Certain otner men have recently been
writing letters to a weekly paper point
ing out that Kipling knows next to moth

accurate in his descriptions of men ami
things in India These letter writers are
evidently in love with accuracy, but the
instances of inaccuracy which they cite
from kiplings Indian stories are far from
convincing. My own belief is that II they
are right in detecting inaccuracies It is
India which is inaccurate. and not Kip

India ought TO be exactly what 4.ipling

Mr. Gordon Craig's clever portraits OF
Henry Irving and Ellen Terry in their

place at once among the new and rising

individuality of his subject. He knows

the result is that In these drawings the
