The Logan Gang. /"


40 desperate in their methods that
they have resorted to lampooning
certain citizens who pay more tax
es than the entire Gang" No
style of 80 called argument adcp.
ted by the Gang" is of force,
as people want facts. We cite the
main points of opposition to Hall
and Gilmore from Democratic
stand point:
FIRST. These two men voted,
and changed the method of Elec-
ting Supervisors from the District
System to the county system, there
by giving the Republican party,
with it's (claimed) six hundred
majority the opportunity to elect
Republican Supervisors. Was this
not hase trenchery to the Demo-
cratict psr'y9 Il it any justitica-
tion for Hall and Gilmore to say
that Amer Stern aud the "Logsn
Gang" will compell the Republi-
cans to nominate them, and there
By PAY them for their treachery? !?
SECOND Hall and Gilmore pass
ed Resolution to Bond the Coun-
ty for Ninety Thousand Dollars,
when it was NOT NECESSARY; aud
they did it on the ALLEGED ground
that they MUST raise the mony to
ppy the County Warrants. Bartol
Nelson enjoined them, and now
they say all the warrants, except
Robert u. Drake's should be con-
tested. But what do they propose
to do with that 100000 worth Of
County Bonds?
THIRD Hall and Gilmore, in vi
olation of law, sold $500 worth
County property to Robt u Drake
and at much less than it was worth
and also agreed not to contest his
County Warrants! Who gave
them authority to run a wholesale
lumber yard and sell County pro-
perty at less than it was worth
with out inviting. bids?
FOURTH. Hail and Gilmore en-
ployed four lawyers at Logan, to
bring all kinds of Law Suits, and
did not even fix the fees as to the
amount which should be paid to
them. Of course $4,000 will be
about the size of the fees, but who
authorized Hall and Gilmore to do
this?
FIFTH. Why are Hall and Gill
more depending on the "Logan
Gang to place them in the mem
bership of the Board, when they
were only appointed to serve until
two new men could be elected?
sixth ---These matters referred
to in all but the last statement, are
ALL of record in the County Audi
tors office. II the people want the
facts. let them go to the records
and they will find the truth.
In the face of all these things
it baho owes the Democratic party
to turn down Hall and Gilmore,
and nominate two good Democrats
who will carry the vote of.the par
ty and who will not look to the
Logan Gang" for advice, but do
their duty as provided by law.

AN IMMORTAL THIRTEEN.
MissourI's Congressional Delegation
Described by One Who Knows

A former Missouri democrat
writes to the st. Louis Globe-D Demo
crat and sizes up the nag furlers and
latter-day hoodoos Of a once glorious
democracy in the following satirical
manner:
Here's to Missouri's immortal thir-
teen! Just line 'em up, Mr.. Editor,
and look 'em over. and call the roll.

there are now two essentials to politi-
cal preferment in Missouri, and you
must have one or the other to be per-
soma grata in democratic circles:
You must be an adapt, a past master
in political trickery, or the fortunate
owner of a droll, odd sort OF name.
One of these essentials will send you
to the Legislature, and In time to con-
gress. II you possess both. you are
taken at once right into the center Of
the inner ring and given anything
you want. The governorship senator

at your service; or they may make YOU
