Republican Attacks Cuban Bill.

Washington, April 9.-The feature
of the second days debate in the
house on the cuban reciprocity bill
was an important speech in opposi-
ton to the measure by William A.
Smith, Michigan, republican. Hewas
literally applauded by his republican
supporters as he assailed the repub-
lican leaders who were advocating
the bill, boldly charging them with
being false to the republican doctrine
OF protection. He announced that
he was willing to vote to override
the chair, in order to support an
amendment to take the differential
off refined sugar. Mr.. Morris, Mime.
sofa, another republican, who mede
a strong speech against the bill, also
made u similar announcement.
The democratic and republican op-
ponents of the measure are trying to
get together on the proposition to
take the differential off refined sugar.
Indications are that the debate will
be protracted.
The demand for time to speak is
great and there is now an expecta-
ton that the general debate will be
completed until. next week.

WORDS OF WARNING
TO THE BOODLERS.
Governor OOCkery Tells Them
That Thew Must Not In
terfere in Politics.
THE KANSAS CITY ELECTION.
Result Presages Victory for the Demo.
cratic Party in State and Nation.

Jefferson City, Mo-, April O.
This Governor Dockery said to;
day, sis to be a Democratic year,
both in the state and nation. Mis-
souri,, as usual, will lead the van.
This inevitable and historic fatality
to the dominant party incident to
the accession of the vice. president to
the presidency is already vexing the
Republicans and will almost certain
ly defeat them in the coming election.
The popular branch of congress is
likely to pass under Democratic con-
troll. There seems to be a DISPOSE
ton among Democrats almostevery.
where to get together and Democrat
ic harmony assures Democratic sue
cess. The air is already electric with
manifestations of coming Democratic
triumph. The city election of a week
ago disclosed the hostile trend of
public sentiment in Missouri against
the policies OF the Republican party.
''This was emphasized yesterday
by the results OF the elections in the
great cities OF st. Joseph and Kan
sas City.
1.-THE Democracy OF Missouri is
united against the Republican poll
cies and favors continuation ofour
magnificent educational system,
wholly divorced from party control.
'The Democracy favors continue
ton OF that superb fiscal system,
Mhich fnr thirty years has-heen- so
administered as to keep the state in
harmony with the progress of the
times and yet reduce our tax rate to
the lowest OF any state in the union.
"The Democracy favors a continue,
tlon OF the policy which imposes Just
and fair taxation upon all forms OF |
property, whether corporate, real or
personal.
1.-The Democracy favors "a system
OF laws which will fully conserve the
interests Of labor, while at the same
time dealing Justly with capital.
1.-THE Democracy iavors honest |
election laws, guaranteeing to the
people the high born right of un-
trammeled and interrupted suffrage. |
THE Democracy favors laws rro-
noting the interests of agriculture,
manufacturers, labor and all other
interests of this sovereign
state.
Along these lines the Democratic |
party of Missouri will move TO an |
old-time triumph, and the election in |
Kansas City emphasizes the warning
which | now give to the public ser
vice corporations to keep out of
politics and not attempt to control
conventions, primaries or elections.
