VIEW POINT OF SECTIONAL HATE

The Chicago Chronicle and the New
York Sun are very much wrought up
over the recent lynching OF negro
brutes in Georgia who murdered a
whole family after outraging the moth
er of the family, says an exchange.
The Chronicle and Sun in the blind
ness OF their sectional hate scores
the entire south for mob violence in
the little Georgia town and very nat
urally finds rothing TO criticize il
the treatment Of the negro in the
patch from Chicago contained the fol
lowing item of news:
ALLEN Gotten. a colored strike

stroyed. The right eye was practic-
ally gouged out, and the man was

probably had a wife and little ones

their daily bread and he was brutallv

The Chicago Chronicle finds moth

killing negroes because they want to
earn q living. but It heaps abuse Oh
the eutre south because a maddened
mob iynches a colored murderer an1
rapist. n the north the negro has

but il The south, according to the
Chronicle, there is no chastity or life
which c0lored murderers should be
made to respect.

BETTER BOLTER THAN TRAITOR.

Joseph w. Folk, an honest Demo
crat. has been nominated for governo"
of Missouri. and every good citizen of
that state should vote for him irres-
pective of party. 1t is certain that
every bad citizen of Missouri will vote
against Folk. for the reason that he
sees in Folks defeat the chance to
ply the trade of boodling unrestrain-
ed. For no matter how honest the
Republican nominee for governor OF
Missouri may be, if he wins Folk will
be defeated because he attacked
Doodle and the Republican who wins
will be careful how he fights corrnp.
ton in Missouri, for Folks defeat will
be spelled in big letters that the ma
jority in Missouri is in favor Of Doodle.
The man who votes against Folk,
threfore, whether he casts that, vote
as a Republican, Populist or Pro-
hibitionist. casts it in favor of a re-
turn of the boodlers. Those who vote
against Folk under these circum-
stances will have to vote with the
Eoodlers, aud heir victory, whether it
is Republican or what not, will be in
reality victory for Doodle
The Gazette has been a straight Re
publican paper for dozen years. Tn
der its present management it has up
held the hands of every Republican
state administration that has been
elected since the paper was started 1t
believes in Republican principles and
the greatne and efficient goodness Of
the Republican party. But there are
sometimes considerations in politics
greater than party--consideration of
honest government. *
Because he has been proved honest
and efficient Folk stands pre-eminent-
ly the type Or honest government in
Missouri No other mans victory, no
matter who he is, would be the re-
ibuke of boodling and corruption in
Missouri that Folks victory would be.
And no possible Republican could by
his election advertise to the world
that Missouri has determined to staad
for clean government as Folk will ad
vertise it by his election.
Parties are meant for good govern
ment and not it's ends. A citizen
should not belong" to party. in the
sense that the party's action and or
ganization should bind him with
silly prejudice to vote for what his
good sense and conscience tell him
l: wrong. "a party organiza-
Goa has no charter rights, if one NAV
use the figure, to have and to hold
human beings in slavery against the
best interests of the state or nation.
The fact that every corruptionist.
whether private citizen or boodliny
railroad is against Folk makes il plai,
that the best interests of good govern
ment in Missouri demand Folks cleo
tion. 1t is question above parlv.
and if a similar situation existed in
Kansas the Gazette would be for the
bemocratlc nominee with all the vigo |
1t could command 1t is better to be
bolter to party than a traitor to a
state.-William Allen White, in the
'Imporia tKan) Gazette.

A NOnagenarian.

Rev. H. S. Brunson Of Fayette cele-
brated his nintleth birthday recently
On the Sunday following he occupied
the pulpit at the NJ. e. church at that
place. The church was crowded, but
the elders voice was strong enough to
be heard by all. He spoke fifty min
utes. He came to Fayette county in
1850. He has filled various Offices of
trust and at one time was state senator.
After the battle of Shiloh he heard
that his nephew was in the hospital
likely to die. He lost no time in
reaching the hospital, arriving at mid
night TO find that his nephew had been
carried to the dead room. Here he
went, brought him out, obtained medi-
cal assistance, and in few days
started home with the sick soldier
where both arrived almost exhausted
with their long journey. His nephew
is still alive and has been a minister of
the gospel for over twenty five years. !"

ACQUIRES New Iowa Line.

The Des Moines & Fort Dodge rail.
way has been purchased by the Mime
apolis & st. Louis. and the transfer
will take place OH June 2. This move
means the addition of l35 miles to
the Minneapolis & st. Louis and a
continuous direct connection between
Des Moines and Minneapolis. The
Des Moines & Fort Dodge was leased
to the Rock Island in January, 1887,
for period of eighteen years. This
lease expires next year, and it has
been matter of speculation just what
new arrangement would be made with
the Rock Island. The purchase of the
road by the Minneapolis & ST. Louis.
however, settles the question. AS the
Des Moines & Fort Dodge road has
fine terminals in Des Moines, the trans
fer will give the Minneapolis e. st.
Louis fixed position in the Iowa
capital.

A Good Rat Story.

Uriah j. Allen CT New Gretna was
surprised one day last week when the
family cat chased out and killed a
bevy of rats from under the barn.
The cat paved one rat in a manner
different from the others, and insisted
upon taking it into the house. When
che rat was about to be cast aside, it
was discovered that a diamond ring,
for which Miss Maggie Adams had
been seeking vainly for two years,
was about the rats neck. The rat,
when youngster, had elidently
worked its head through the ring and
failing to shake it off, had grown ac-
customed to its presence. Elkader

Music Hath Charms.

For number of years there has
been rattle snake den on the farm of
Fred Lippert, on Nays Prairie, this
county. 1t is a hole located on the
point of bluff and the first warm
days in spring the venomous denizens
can be heard rafting and squirming
around deep in the bowels of the
earth. On recent Sunday Mr.. Lep-
pert and companion armed with rifle
visited the den. Mr.. Leppert had his
violin with him and proceeded to play.
In short time the snakes began to
emerge from the hole, seemingly en-
ticed by the music. The man with
the rife killed five, all bearing from
eight to ten rattles. and would have
got number more if he had shot
gun. Music hath charms to soothe"
even a rattlesnake it seems. ALA

the tragedy:
Inquiry by TELEPHONE brought out the
facts that at 4 30 yesterday morning,
a neighbor heard the report of a gun
and rushed into Mitchell's place and
found him lying dead in the kitchen,
shot through the heart by charges from
both barrels OF a shotgun. Everything
went to show that he had pulled the
trigger by means of string and stick
found near the gun. The verdict of
the coroner's jury was that he came to
his death by his own hand. -Cresco
