habits Of life Some species grow al
together beneath the water, attaching
themselves below the lowest tide level,
other frequent heights where they are
left dry at every retreating tide, while
others yet are found in situations

by water. Whereas most of them at

An Important Election.

Every Democrat should know
the reason why this is more
important election than those
which have preceded it, and for
this purpose is this editorial
written.
The Republican ringsters of
the state of Missouri have been
lying about the conditions and
affairs of the state for nearly
three years, in fact they have
done 50 since they were voted
out of power over thirty years
ago. But their appetite for
Office has caused them to rene w
their attack with increased en-
ergy and they have for the past
two years with malice afOre-
thought, maligned aud traduc,
ed the name of the state of Mis-
souri,, with all the bitterness at
their command, and done so
without regard TO truth or the
effect 1t will have on the state
abroa !.
Now for the Democrats to al
low their indifference to cause
this county and state TO go Re
publican would be an aCknowl-
edgement that all they have &C
cused us of is true ard that we
turn this state over to them to
plumber as they did the city of
st. Louis and other states and
municipalities which they have
governed for the past quarter
of a century.
Not having any regard for
the truth and by concerted
effort through their newspapers
and public orators they have
eXerted every nerve to make
the people believe tina the
school funds of the state have
been looted and that the public
moneys have been squandered
which is all lie and they
know it is lie when they as.
sert it. For this reason, if no
other. lie Democrats of the
stat "uo county ought to turn
out III number and bury them so
deep with an ava .ancne of
votes that at the last bugle
