Hon. G. D. Corum's Speech.

Hon. C. D. Corum, a bright,
young Democratic lawyer from Boon
vile, made one of the most argumen-
tative speeches of the present cam
paign at the courthouse in Keytes-
vile last Saturday afternoon. There
were comparatively few people in
town from the country at the time,
but the circuit court room was about
half full of attentive( listeners. The
colored band of Keytesville furnished
music for the occasion, and every
member listened to the speech atten-
lively.
The speaker discussed every issue
of the campaign between the two
dominant parties. He showed he
was well posted and held the attention
of his audience for about an hour and
a half. The Bryan and Stevenson
club was SO well pleased with his
speech that unanimous vote was
passed inviting Mr., Corum TO attend
the grand Democratic rally at Key
tesvii!e yester day.

A Story Too Good to Keep.

We learn that one day this week a
colored man came to Dalton and IN
terviewed some of the negroes of that
town inviting them to 60 over to Illi-
nois to work on the railroad, promis
ing them free transportation and good
wages.
Having finished his work at Dalton,
he took the afternoon train for Bruns-
wick. While at Dalton he attracted
the attention of certain Democrat
who boarded the same train with him
for Brunswick. On the train the Dem
ocrat passed himself off for a Republi-
can, and as such, the strange "son of
Ham" unbossomed himself very freely,
making known his business, as a
solicitor of Missouri negroes to go to
Illinois and vote for Mckinley. The
Dalton man permitted him to extend
his interviews in Brunswick for while,
then gave him a good threshing and
sent him home, wiser if not better
man.

TURN YOUR BACK

on the grocer who says he
has better coffee than
Blanke's. He only wishes
he had such coffee. Remem-
Der this: All I claim for
Blanke,s coffee is that it is as
good as any other brand on
earth. Many of my customers
openly say it is the best.
Probably they are right.
But this is a big world and
there are lots of good things
in it. Still there isn'ta a better
coffee than Blankets any
where--north, south, east or
west. My way Of selling this
coffee is to give people their
money back if they don't like
it. The price is % 1-2 cents

4 Ghost at Salisbury.

Keytesville's ghost has probably
moved to Salisbury-at least that city
is now IN the throes Of "ghost
scare" This is what the Daily News
says about it:
Salisbury has had a ghost scare.
Recently lady and gentleman were
driving west on Second street and
when about a mile from town they
were startled by the sound of horse
rapidly running toward them. The
gentleman turned his horse out of the
read in order to let the wild horse
pass. All of sudden a welrd-look-
ing object on horse appeared at the
side ofthe buggy and the face Of the
rider looked in the face of the young
lady. Instantly the horse and rider
disappeared with space and not a
sound was heard. Several pastss
have seen the wild horse and rider
and all agree that it is real, live
ghost. He has frightened severa
people and a party will soon be or.
ganized and watch for his ghostship.
We will give years subscription for
the horse.''

If Richard Kerens ever had the
ghost of show to succeed George G.
Vest in the United States senate by
having his henchmen circulate false
reports of crookedness in Democratic
administrations, Chauncey l. Fllley,
his lnveterate Republican enemy,
knocked his chance into ''pi," when
he wrote and had published in many
Democrtic papers last week long
letter in which he told the truth
concerning the school fund scandal
and showed clearly Republi-
cans as we'll as Democrats were re-
sponslble for the transfer OF bonds due
the school fund, to certificates of In
debtedness. Mr., Filley agrees with
the Democrats that the school fund
was gamer instead of loser thereby.

WHAT 1T MEANS.

In every part of the country there
has been, throughout the present cam
paign, noticeable lack of that noisy
enthusiasm which generally character.
ICES presidential campaign. There
fore we repeatedly hear the question
asked, GLOW is the silent vote going!"
We think we know how the gr eat bulk
of this silent vote is going to be cast.
If the Republicans, as whole, wer
pleased with the cause of the McKin-
ley administration and approved of the
same there would be craze of Re-
publican enthusiasm extending from
ocean to ocean. On the other hand,
if the abuses the Democrats are seek.
ing to correct were of an ordinary
character, pertaining wholly to inter-
mai and economic questions, the Dem
ocrats would be found as noisy and
hilarious as usually they are. But the
questions at issue are too serious for
levitv and noise. The abuses are so
grave as to make men mad. The
Democrats and the independent
voters are too deeply offended to be-
come noisy and rackety. They are
just simply nursing their wrath, and
on the 9th day of November there
will be such cloud-burst of indigna-
ton and wrath as never before de-
scended upon the head of any admin
istration since the foundation of the
republic. This is what the ominous
silence means and nothing less. 1t is
the calm before the storm. We have
been watching the clouds and find
they are all centering about the heads
of Mark Hanna and Mckinley.

NUMBER 80

state bonds raised from heavy dis
count to handsome premium.
This has lot been done by an in.
or ease in taxation, but, on the con.
trary, state taxes have been reduced
50 per cent.
The public school and seminary
funds, which by wise business man.
agement have been increased to
nearly 81, $4,000, are held in trust
as a sacred obligation. The interest
on these funds, amounting annually to
$25o,ooo, which formerly went to the
bondholders, is now paid to the school
districts of our state and the state
university. In addition, one third of
all our state revenue, amounting this
year to $500, 900, goes annually to
the support of our public schools,
making total of more than 81 ,ooo,-
900 which our state now sets apart
annually for public education out of
the revenue produced by the low
est tax rate levied by any state in the
union.
Before the close of the next state
administration our entire financial
obligation, excepting the fund held in
trust for the schools, will have been
wiped out and the state tax, which is
now IS cents on the $Ioo, can be
still further reduced to IS cents.
This excellent business showing is
| a forceful answer to the sland erous
partisan attacks which have been
made in this campaign upon our COM
monwealth.
The fight, SO far as Missouri is con-
cerned, has been made and is won.
Our party has presented In this
state honest, capable, upright candi-
dates for public favor, The public
have right to feel, and do feel, that
the interests of the state and lnterests
of our people will be safe under Demo-
cratic control.
AS fitting rebuke to the campaign
of slanderous abuse which has been
waged by an unscrupulous partisan
press, we ask that the majority for
our national. state, district and local
tickets be so overwhelming as to for
ever silence the tongue of partisan
slander and defamation.
| Let every loyal Missourian make it
| his duty from this time until the close
of the polls on the 9th of November
to help swell the Dem ocratic ma
Ijorlty in this state.
| Not only will Bryan and Stevenson
have magnificent majority in Mis-
souri,, but our state, district and legis-
latlve tickets are equally certain of a
| splendid victory.

The Salisbury Rally.

Last Thursday was red letter day
for Salisbury and the Charlton county
Democracy-in fact, it was glorious
Democratic love-feast, and a big In
crease in the Democratic ma jority of
that township as we'll as IN other por-
tons of the county will be the inevita-
bic result of the Salisbury rally of last
Thursday and Thursday night.
The attendance was estimated at
e. 900, and we believe every one Of
that number was there. and then some.
Speeches were made in the after
noon by Senator James H. Berry of
Arkansas and Hon. E. NJ. Harber Of
Trenton. Grundy county, both of
which were masterpieces Of political
oratory.
Between 7:3o and 8 O'Clock par
ade OF footmen, floats. private con-
veyances, artistIcally decorated, ap-:
propriate banners, notices, etc., took
place through the principal streets of
Salisbury, in which Keytesville played
a conspicuous part, and the COURIER
is truly proud of the splendid showing
made by the rock.rlbbed Democrats
and beautiful ladies of our township.
Hon. Webster Davis of Kansas City
arrived from Carrollton at S:2S p.
m., and as his coming was looked for
ward to as the event OF the day, a
seethlng mass of humanity crowded
the opera house door for over an hour
before being admitted. In the jam
to get into the opera house a great
many were more tightly "squeezed''
than ever before or they will ever
care to. be again.
Upon Mr.. Davis arrival the crowd
cheered vociferously, and when Hon.
E. M. Harber stepped to the front, of
the stage and proposed three cheers
for the eminent Kansas Cityian, the
audience responded with regular old
time Democratic enthusiasm.
Mr. Davis speech followed, and no
one-was left to doubt his sincerity in
changing from Republican to a
Democrat. He is one of the most
charming speakers this country ever
produced, and his hearers drank down
his eloquence and logic without tax
ing any note of time. Everyb ody was
more than pleased with his address,
and we are informed that at the con.
clusion of his uranswerable arguments
that 10 or IL German citizens, who
have hitherto voted the Republican
ticket, pledged Mr.. Davis that their
votes would be cast for Bryan mex,
Tuesday.
When Mr.. Davis had finished his
speech Mr.. Harber introduced Judge
w. w. Rucker, who is second to nc
congressman this district has sent tc
assist in making our national laws
The judge made short, but effective
talk, after which the audience dis
ipersed, holding in pleasing memory
Salisbury's big rally, and were fillee
to the brim with Democratic enthusi
asm.
Hurrah for Salisbury and hel
rally!

THE big battle Of the ballot takes
place next Tuesday. Prospects of
Democratic success were never better.
Let every Democrat turn out and
vote, and victory will perch upon
our banner and the great American
eagle will scream with freedom s
lustiesi scream.

No Cut Prices at
My Grocery.

Idon't believe in cut prices.
Every grocer is in business
to make money. When a
man begins to cut prices he
begins to cut the quality of
his stock. That is the only
way he can cut prices and
make money at the same
time. But I do welcome
honest competition. Nobody
in Keytesville sells the better
grades of groceries cheaper
than [ do. | have to make a
little profit and a little profit
is all / want.

BENDING 4 Stone,

What Cheer Patriot: Probably
most people, like ourselves, have
labored under the impression that a
stone was unyeilding and could not
bend but we have proven to our sat
isfaction that even a stone may be
bent. We have in this Office an sim
posing stoue," a marble slab four
inches in thickness by FIVE feet long,
and three feet wide. This stone lays
horizontally on a stand supported
only at the ends. In the course of
years the center had sprung down
two and n half inches rendering
the stone worthless for the use for
which it was designed. About three
months since we turned it over in or
der by experiment to see whether it
would bend back and now the stone
is straight and we use it every day
for the purpose for which it was in
tended. Maybe it isn't remarkable
but we think it is.
