iACKsONlAN DEMOCRAT.
Written for the News.

After fu: ther meaudering through
the political arena and viewing the sit
uation from every grandstand, with the
closest scrutiny, and weditating over
the complexity of a uost unparalleled
condition of affairs, we have reached
a point in our conclusion to fight this
political battle through, five come out
with enough for roll call.
We have. from reliable information,
learned that Arthur Traynor candidate
for chancellor is Kansas City platform
democrat and the Jacksonian will have
to turn his battering rams against his
adamantine walls and If our battering
rams are inadequate we will turn on our
catapults or revert to the trick OF the
crafty Ulysses.
We have one great advantage OF
Judge Traynor and that is we have the
bar or all the lawyers with as. The
beauty Of the matter is that Judge Mo
! Connell has a wonderful hold on great
many of the bar. They hold his prom
ises to pay, or letters of credit and II he
is defeated for reelection, his pocket
book like the stomachs of the confeder-
ates at Vicksburg, will have to fold up
and 90 out of business. 1t is reported
that Judge Mcconnell has borrowed
$40, 900 since he knew that he was bank
rupt Now we are for him anyway, but
we are very sorry of the seeming truth
attached to great many charges a.
gainst him but we propose to vote it; for
what is a violation of conscience but q
soft suffusion of blood to the face?
We are very happy in ex-president
Cleveland's enunciation of harmon
ious course or plaintive plea for har-
mony in the democratic party. The
peals sounded more enchanting than
those OF Morpheus Tyre.
The Jacksonian was very much dis
turbed by the resignation OF the honor
able Isaac Crabtree, Chairman of our
judicial committee and we notice thai
there is some disaffection in Hamilton
county executive committee owing tC
the record of some of our judicial tim
ber. 1t is very painful to US to see The
| old guard falling by the wayside.
