HOARY OLD DEMOCRAT-
10 LIE EXPOSED.
Some Comparisons of Republl-
can and Democratic Finan-
claI Methods In Mis-.
sourf.

Hon. Ben F. Russell Of Steel
Vile, Mo, late sergeant-at-arms in
the U. s. House OF Representatives
nails an old snliquated Democratic
lie about Republican extravaganza
in printing in this state, in the fol-
lowing sledee hammer style, in a
letter to the Globe Democrat;
"For the printing Of the laws and
journals during IS67-6S, under
Gov. Fletcher, a Republican, it
COS, the people sSS,4Is.54. Under
Democratic rule IN rS9o-Iooo it
COS, the taxpayers only SIo,SS7.65.
Under Republican rule in cost eight
times as much as il did under Dem
ocrate," says the Howell County
Gazette, a Democratic paper.
This lie was evidently copied
from one of Seibert's political ex-
h,bits, aud is an unfounded and ma
lieious falsehood, as the editor Of
the Gazette can satisfy himself in a
few minutes from the official re-
cords.
If he will visit the clerks office
in his ownucounty (the same is true
of Bates county, he can find the
session acts of IS67-6S, as well as
the house and senate journals. He
will discover, N the first place, that
all the reports OF the various officers
OF the state-auditor, treasurer, at
torney general, as well as OF the
public institutions-were all printed
in the journal as appendices, and
that the cost of printing all these
volumes was included under the
general head OF Laws and Joum.

turn to page 8 OF the session cts oil
iS67-6S he will find in the appro.
priation bill every dollar appropri-
ated TOR all kinds Of printing, and.
instead of the amount being SSS,,
1850, il is only $4,000 (see line
Il of the appropriation aet.) II
the next paragraph $1,000 is apprO.
priated for printing the decisions o.
the supreme court, and that is ever,

printing. Il should be remembered
that this includes the cost of mater

was much higher.
Now. turn to the session acts 0

find all the appropriations 70

Prince Henry of Prussia is all
right. He has shown himself to be
a first class gentleman and q worthy
representative of a great emperor
and a great country. The masses
of the people are glad to see such a
royal welcome extended to him, but
our newspapers are OVERRIDING them
selves with small and unimportani
details of his visit to the infinite dis
gust of their readers.
The tribune. (Rich Hill, Mo.) 1900-1902, 1902-03-06

One Of the curses OF legal pro
ceedings. especially in criminal
prosecutions, is the laws delay.
Look at the pOppy-cock play in the
Doodle cases in St. Louis. The
only result is the piling up Of costs
Tor the people to pay. Elect a Re-
publican legislature and it won't be
many years until they viii find a
way to cut down these costs.
The tribune. (Rich Hill, Mo.) 1900-1902, 1902-03-06

On the aSth day of February,
1902, the house OF representatives
passed $50 private pension bills in
a little owe. three hours. This
ought to convince the government
aud the people that there is some
thing radically wrong with either
our pension laws OF their admins
.tratioa. We don't believe there is
anything wrong with the pension
laws.
The tribune. (Rich Hill, Mo.) 1900-1902, 1902-03-06

What kind Of a doctrine is this
our supreme court lays down.
That a law passed by the Legislature
creating a certain office and pre-
scribing the of the appoint
ment of the officer by the governor,
that the governor is not bound by
that law9 Is it possible that such
is the fact in a republican form OF
golernmenti If the governor OF
our state cannot be bound BY a
LAW passed by our legislature, we
think il i'll becomes our Democratic
county newspapers to cheep about
the appointment Of rural route de-
livery carriers under civil service
rules.

In rS65-6S the appropriations for
the contingent expenses Of the gen.
eral assembly of Missouri was
$4,000; for the years 1899 1900
the appropriation for the same pur.
pose was 100000; an increase Of
$3.50, 900. The first was under
Republican rule, the latter under

The Philippine revenue bill car
rying a reduction Of IS per cent OF
the Dingley tariff rates passed the
Senate late Monday evening by a
strict party vote, all amendments
having been rejected. The scenes
attending the final debate AMI

ces most deplorable. On.
last Saturday, Senator Tiliman,
speaking on the bill, charged Sen

with a promise OF federal patron
age. to vote for the ratification of
the treaty Of Paris. When Sena-

Monday, their names were omitted

LIEN DECISION
OF Interest TO LabOrers, Build
ers and Contractors.

ers and Contractors.
When a lien is taken on build
ings, the St. Louis court of appeals
decided Saturday last, the land on
which the building stands and the
structure itself must be accurately
described. A general description
may be cause for a dismissal of the
suit. The case was brought from
Greene county. J. A. Mayes
brought suit against E. A. Murphy
and l. S. Russell. Mayes had
worked on the house, which was
built for Russell by Murphy. Part
Of his wages were paid, and for sos
the balance due him, he brought
suit. At the trial the defendant OBJ
jeeted - the introduction of evil
dence, because the petition failed to
describe the land on which the house
was built. The court sustained the
objection, and the plaintiff took a
non-suit. = motion to set aside
the nonsuit was overruled, and an
appeal was taken. The appellate
court affirmed the ruling OF the cir
cult court, because no attempt had
been made to describe the acre on
which the house was built.
