A meeting Of the coal dealers was held
yesterday afternoon and the price Of an
thracite was discussed. AS the Omaha deal
ers raised the rate 70 SIS a ton IT was
thought that local dealers would do the
same. There was no change in the price
Of hard coal here for the simple reason
that every pound OF anthracite now in the
city has been contracted for and dealers
cannot secure any definite information from
eastern jobbers. There is no coal here to
speak OF that has not been sold. with the
exception Of the steam coal used by the

THERE is a large number of men
who claim to be Democrats, that are
demanding that the tariff and trust
question should be pushed to the front
for the reason that trade should be left
to seek its natural channels, and the
law Of supply and demand should be
left to regulate the commerce OF the
world. But when you undertake to
show them that money is governed by
the same laws that govern other COM
modities; that it is only a commodity
which is bought and sold the same as
corn and wheat, meat and sugar, ETC.,
that when the merchant sells goods to
his customer he buys money from him;
that when there Is plenty of money in
circulation it takes a very small
amount of corn to buy a good deal of
it, and that when the amount Of money
in circulation is small it takes a great
deal Of corn and wheat to get a very
little Of it, they tell you that the money
question must be dropped if harmony
is to be restored. When you go farther
and show them that the amount of
bank notes and treasury notes in circu-
'lation affect values no more than the
number of grain certificates in circu-
lation affect the price of grain; when
you show them that the readmission of
silver to coinage would raise the
natural level Of prices-a contention
that no n now disputes-that this
would be of great advantage to the
common people, by tending to place
the ordinary business transactions of
the day on a cash basis and freeing
them from the servitude of credit, you
are blandly told that the money ques-
ton must be eliminated If there is to
be harmony in the Democratic party.
Suppose we abandon the money ques-
ton entirely and take up the tariff
issue, in less than six months we would
be told that the tariff on sugar must be
retained If we are to have harmony In
the party 10 the extreme south; that
we must not touch the tariff on steel,
iron, lead or machinery; that if we do,
we will disrupt the party. In order
that there may be complete harmony,
there must be no issue between the
two parties but the Offices. Democrats
do not want harmony with these peo-
pie. They want nothing but war with
them. They will not vote for them,
neither will they affiliate with them.
The rank and file will tolerate no com
promise. Standard Oil and corpora
ton leaders must be kicked out. Can
didates should be compelled to stand
squarely upon the Kansas City plat
form or should be defeated. The man
who in office violates the platform
pledges, should be treated to a dose of
political tar and feathers. Victories
are not won by compromising prin-
ciples.

THE Democratic papers are catechis-
ing the Hon. Jos. Russell with direct
ness and perseverance. Mr.. K. is a
candidate for the Democratic nomina-
tion for Congress in our neighboring
district on the south. The CaSh-Boob
last week speered the following;
We recently stated in these columns
that in 1896, Hon. Jos. Russell, in a
conversation at Delta station in this
county, referred to the free silver lead
ers of the democratic party as a lot of
.'cranks" aud .~'asses." We respect
fully ask Mr.. Russell to say whether
he has been correctly represented in
that matter. Mr.. Russell is also
quoted as having stated during the
campaign of 1896 that he was going
to vote for Bryan, but if he knew his
vote would elect him he would not do
it. He ought also to say whether or
not this is true. The true democrats
OF this district would like to know If
these things are true before they vote
for his nomination for congress.

The REGISTER says it was a "sup-
porter of Mr.. Hensley as long as he
was in the race" Granted; but will it
answer this question truly from its
inuermost conscience: II Mr.. Hensley
had remained in the field after Judge
bearing was prevailed upon to become
a candidate, would it have continued
to support himP-Farmington Times.
1t would have continued its support
OF Mr.. Hensley to the end against all
corners. Will the Times please state
upon what ground it bases the insinu-
alton it's question raises? The REGIS
TER is not given to flying from pillar
to post. Mr.. Hensley's ''inexperi-
ence" barred the Times from his sup.
port; but that paper shuts its eyes to
the medioerity against which expert
ence rubs in vain.

SAYS the Jefferson Democrat: The
Congressional Committeeman's paper
is much worked up owe what it sup
poses to be the influences that are sup
porting a candidate against Mr.. Robb.
We confess to having suspicious of our
own of the motives of some Of Judge
Bearings supporters, but they do not
reflect in the least on the integrity OF
the Judge. If their motives are no
worse than Mr.. Bell suggests, ''some-
body to beat Robb," they are not so
bad after all. If Mr.. Robb is cce
full this time, nothing but a fight OF
that kind, made openly and boldly,
will aver dislodge him from his seat.
He now has one of the most perfect
machines ever organized-one well
calculated to perpetuate its own ex-
istence as we'll as Mr.. Robb's official
life"

One remedy for the pass system would
be for tho State to send each legislator
his ticket before the meeting Of the
General Assembly and take the price
out of his mileage. The issuing of
passes TO legislators and other officials
should be stopped, and the surest way
to do this is to take away the induce
ment. The legislator who has a ticket
In his pocket will regard his pass as
s%upurfuous. The State should see
to it that the money paid for mileage
is actually spent for mileage. 1t can
do this, at least.

RAILROAD passes are not necessarily
brides any more than are dollars, yet
they may be used as brides. The
Record takes the position that no ma
holding public office should accept or
use a pass from any corporation, as it
might, and frequently does, bias his
judgment on legislation affecting these
corporations. A nan will look out
for his ''friendsn-that ls human
nature-but he should beware how he
places himself under obligations to
corporate interests, where the welfare
of the people are concerned. Aside
from the fact that officials generally
receive mileage, and are not entitled
to it if they do not pay their fare, no
official who will study the question
should allow a few cents or a few dol
lars from doing his full duty to his
Observation-Disclosures Record.
We cordially endorse the sentiments
of the Record. Railroads are not in
business for their health. They make
money out of the carrying trade, and
they never intentionally carry any mar
without a quid pro quo. When you
see a judge riding without purchasing
a ticket or ~remunerating the conductor
you can safely bet that the railroad
thinks it is getting its fare out of him
in some other way than through
money consideration When a legis-
lator rides upon a pass and pockets
his milage, the railroads look upon him
as a proper subject for experiment.
Should he solicit the pass in order to
clear his mileage they feel reasonably
sure OF him. The delegate to a con-
vention who rides on the strength OF
the railroad, never feels himself quite
so independent as he would If he paid
for his ride. The least expected from
him is that he will not vote for any
nominee very obnoxious to the gentle
mar who secured him his pass. When
a railroad sends a special train to a
judicial convention in charge of a
prominent member of its law depart
ment, it is dollars to b~lackberries that
there Is a mouse in the meal.
Railroads and other corporations
have the right to the protection of the
law as long as they are legal institu-
lions. So long as they have interests
at stake they may be expected to at
tempt to mould legislation. II their
power in the State was no greater
than that OF an individual, their con-
duct at the convention or In the halls
Of legislation would not 80 much mat
ter; but the enormous power they
WELD makes their influence dangerous.
The official who receives favors from
them usually does not want his con-
stituents to know 1t. Uusually the
Judge ~conceals his pass from the eye
Of the public as carefully as the dude
his liason with a young lady Of color.
II the pass lie correct why should not
the official expose 1t as frankly as the
ordinary passenger does his ticketp
Railroads are not altogether to
blame for the pass system. There was
q market before they became buyers.

DeArmOnd.

Judge David A. DeArmond, at pres
emit a member Of congress from the
Sixth district, last Friday, gave it out
at Washington that he had consented
TO be a candidate for the United States
senate, to succeed Senator Vest. When
asked if he would return TO Missouri
and enter on his canvass, he answered.:
mo, / never have left the house for
a convention or primary, a canvass or
campaign, and my friends must not
now expect me to pursue a course al
together different. 1t is my purpose
while congress is in session to stick to
my post, to represent the district
which elected me and help in the fight
which must be made here for party
and country. l have full confidence
that, in selecting the man whom they
would have to succeed Senator Vest,
the democracy Of good old Missouri
will rate the s%enatorship according to
its real Importance, judge all the as-
pirants for it fairly, wherever they
may be, and, upon full considerations,
do what they think best; and with
their decision l shall be satisfied"
So, there you have it
For more than eight years, at inter-
walls, the Democrat has been telling
its Dunklin county readers about this
grand man. During that time its ed
itor has never conferred with Judge
DeArmond on the subject of his polit-
ical aspirations o received a word or
letter from him on the subject.
We knew him twenty years ago,
when he was in the senate, a leader
there, as he is a leader now. Then he
was recognized as the ablest member
OF the state senate, just as he Is now
recognized as the ablest man in the
lower house Of congress.
Later, we watched him when he was
a circuit Judge, and later when he was
a supreme court judge, or commits
sioner.
Those who know him and have
carefully noted the purity of his pri-
vate and official life, his untiring en-.
ergy, his great learning, his abilities
as an orator, his freedom from COM
plicating alliances with machines and
political r~ings-these all know that he
is the ideal man for United States
senator.
He may have waited too long to an
%nounce; but one thing is certain: The
democrat who votes to instruct a rep
re~sentative to vote for Judge De.
Almond will never have occasion to
regret it.
He is honest; he is competent; he is
deserving; he is a sober man; he is
right on every public question; he ia

CHURCH circles at the east are dis
cussing the question whether a man
can be q Christian on a salary of five
dollars per week. Mr.. Bryan thinks
that If a man supports his family on
that amount and continues in the faith
he is certainly a good Christian. II
he were a profane mar he might have
said q HI OF a good one. That is
about the way the average mar would
express 1t. The plutocracy have
figured u how little a man can live
upon, and now some OF them are
amusing themselves by calculating
how much a week o man will have to
have to pay his fare to heaven. They
really don't care whether the cattle
who work for them go to heaven or
not. II religion makes them tractable
and docile. they will spend money to
purchase it, just as the farmer will
spend money for a food that makes his
horses pull better and causes them to
refrain from kicking. Christ was a
very docile man while upon earth and
IL not credited with a large revenue,
and was rather against the p~lutocracy
Of bis day; so much 80 that he laid
violent and a%narchistic hands on the
persons and property of the money
changers OF his day, which the Jews
0 claim caused his death. II isn't
. Christianity that will cause men to
lead blameless lives that the ~plutocracy
want SO much, as u that will cause
men to quit thinking. II Christ were
to come back to earth to-day and com
memo healing the sick the doctors
would have him In jail within forty
eight hours, and the plutocracy would
hang him In less than q month.

Railroad.

Denver. March 24.-The News this
morning says:
John Kebler, manager of the Colo
RADIO Fuel and Iron Company, yester-
day positively denied the report that
the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company,
or the Individual members of that COM
pany, purchased the Colorado d South
ern railroad. Mr.. Kebler returned Sat
urday from n pleasure trip through the
Mediterranean, which consumed sew
eral months. On his way back he
stopped in New York and other east
ern cities and had personal interviews
with John w. Gates and other control
lers of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company. relative to the transactions
In Colorado Fuel and Iron Company
and Colorado Il Southern stock.
You may say positively" said Mr..
Kebler last night, that the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company has absolutely
no interest in Colorado 4 Southern
Our interests with that system are
friendly, as they are with every road
in rae West will state positively
that we have absolutely no control or
Interest as company nor ms members
of the company in the Colorado
Southern. Reports that John w. Gates
or any other person connected with the
Colorado Fuel and Iron had control
In the road, are unfounded. Paul Nor
ton of the Santa re is credited with
saying that Gates and his associates
secured control of the Colorado Il
Southern. Mr.. Morton said nothing OF
the sort, and II any statement was
made 1t was that the road had passed
into the control of private parties
Whether this is really true, l am not
able to say"
Owing to the fact that the road has
no stock for sale and that all of the
reported heavy transactions are merely
in the shape of stock certificates, the
extreme movement of stock of the road
seems to be nothing more than clever
manipulation ON the part OF Wall street
operators. According to the market quo
tatlons the stock of the road Is valued
at over S1S,OOO.OOO. which. with the
bond issue. would place 1t nearly to the
$40, 100000 mark. The present earnings
of the road, while gratifying. are alb
solutely out of the question on the
stock quotation basis. On market quo
tations the common stock of the road
is valued at SS.GSO.00O; the first pre-
ferred is valued at $6,120.OOO. and the
second Mt $3G55. 100. Together with
the bond issue the road will not be able
to meet its fixed charges and revenue
on that valuation for mt least ten years.
The reports that the sale of the control
of the road has actually been cneced
are, therefore, quit idle.
