The republicans are funny fellows.
The state convention at Jefferson City
adopted a platform which says: "We
point with pride to the fact that all
our promises have been fulfilled. "
This is not true, nor half true. "We
re-afirm the declarations of the party,
that we are u~nalterably opposed to all
trusts and combinations in restraint
of trade, having for their purpose, in
the remotest degree, Sitting Of CON-
petition. "This is proven to be untrue
by the luxurious prosperity of all
trusts and combines, and the frantic
efforts of trusts tokeep the republican
party in power. "We declare that
the democrats are unable to account
for the money taken from the tax
payers" This is not true, nor half
true, for everybody knows that every
cent has been accounted for. The
convention denounced the lobby, then
winked its other eye and secretly
resolved to make every republican
member Of the legislature vote for
lobbyists and lobby measures. The
people of Missouri are "on'' to repub-
lican promises and denunciatlons.
