CHALLENGE A COMPASSION.

We challenge a comparison of the
Democratic management of the af-
airs in Bates county for nearly thirty
years with Republican management
of any other county in the state, or
United States, for the same or like
period. When we took charge the
county was in debt, taxes were high,
a Republican sheriff and collector
had defaulted for large sum, part
of which was collected by Democratic
officials off of his bondsmen, but a
large sum was lost to the taxpayers.
The county is now out OF debt, with
a substantial balance in the treasury.
No county in the state has better or
more substantial improvements.
There has been no defalcations, but
every dollar of the peoples money
has been honestly accounted for.
The officials have uniformly been
courteous and accommodating to
all.
How has it been down in the
county of Dade where the Republi.
cans have kept almost continuous
possession. The Greenfield Advo
cate calls attentiontsthe fact that
the county debt Of 100000 has
grown to $4,000, in spite of the
fact that 1896, 266. 30 have been paid
out by the people.
Is it hard for taxpayers to max,
a choice with such q showing
Doesn't it require a good deal o
assurance for Republicans to ask th,
people to make a changer Is it an,
wonder that Republicans realize thai
their only hope lies in immigration
and We can assure them that is
mighty slim chance and q long way,

DON'T WANT TO WIN.

Mr.. Gowherd,- in his admirable
speech at the court house, said that
minority party of long standing in
n state drifts Into the hands OF a few
ambitious politicians who control it
for personal ends. That is the posi-.
ton OF the Republican party in Mis-
souri,, and considering the foolish,
inconsistent and absurd issues they
raise in state campaigns he is led to
the conclusion that these leaders do
not want the Republicans to win in
the state, for then some other ambi.
tiOus statesmen would rise up and
contest their power. When We look
back over the issues these leaders,
aided by their organ the Globe Dem
ocrat, have raised in the past and the
present campaign, We can but agree
with Mr.. Cow erd in thinking they
don't want the Republicans to win in
Missouri. 1t was the "Robber state"
and Poor Old Missouri" cry
which the patriotic and self. respect
ing citizen was bound to resent, and
now it is ''Looting the School Fund"
which lie is brought home forcibly to
every voter at each annual distribu-
ton OF the state school interest,
wherein each school child in the ST ate
receives about S1.20. We have no
doubt that Mr. kearns would like to
see a Republican legislature this time
so that he could go to the United
States Senate and help out his Trust
friends, but deep down in his heart
he would hate to see the Republican
party come into power in the state,
which would probably mean his own
undOing.

NEVER DODGES OR EyADES.

Theattack Of the Republican-Press
upon Judge DeArmond's record on
TrustsiS ridiculous and absurd toall
parties who have watched lis course
III Congress. Ia fact il is not difficult
to locate Judge DeArmuud at any
time on all public questions. He is
not II CiSSpmhtGr- or straddter but a
fearless, open fighter and hard hitter,
and no opponent ON the floor of the
House has ever accused him ul uudg-
ing a vote or evading an issue. Ii
remained for this recent importation
from Republican Iowa. who had
heard of DeArmond only as nation
al character and one of the leaders oi
the Democratic party in Congress, To
make charges of Implicitly. Judge
peArmund has voted Tor every blll
brought before Congress in good
faith that tended Ia abridge the pow
ers of those great commercial, cum
binations. Just briur, the hast na.
tional election the Republicans intro.
duced an antitrust measure, which
received the votes oi every Demo
cratic member from Missouri, at.
though they knew and pointed out
thatit was only meant for political
effect and would not be permitted
To become Il law. and which was
pigeon huled in the senate.
The joint resolution to which the
ltepublicun.Press referred was pre-
pared by the Republican members OF
theJudiciary Committee behind lock.
ed doors, and the Democratic men,
beers of that committee were not per.
mitted 10 he present or take part in
its construction, nor did they even
know its nature until it was INTRO
duced, and the announcement made
at the time that it was a Republican
measure, and the Democrats could
support it or not as they saw ft.
Instead of il being a measure "to
knock out the trusts as that PAPER
so hippantly declares, it was a Joint
resolution to amend the national
constitution to give the Federal gov
crnment more power in the premises.
In the first place, The constitution
has he, II amended only once since its
adoption during the whole history of
this government and that after four
years of the iiorciest civil war know
to the his, DRY of the world, and the
expenditure oi immansp sums of mon
ey and the sacrifice .uI thousands Of
lives. An amendment to the cons, i.
tuition before its adoption would
have to be ratified by two thirds OF
the states. The states are and have
always been Jealous of their rights
and suspicious of any effort to in
crease the Federal power over them.
Does anyone believe, anu least OF all
the men who clandestinely prepared
this resolution, that it was an honest
and sincere effort to knock out the
trusts 1t was well understood by
Democratic Congressman and all 9th.
ers who gave it thought, that it was
meant as IA subtifuge to deceive the
people and give the trusts longer
lease OF power. Congressman Dear.
mond and his cOnfrerres from Missouri
rightly and courageously refused to
vote for that Joint resolution, and in
so doing deserve the thanks OF all
citizens who are honestly and sincere
ly opposed to trusts and their at
tendant evils.
