EVERY few days a new story is start
ed about Folk wanting to compro-
mise with someone. These stories
are all false. Folk is making no prom
Uses OF Office, neither is he going to
compromise with anyone for any office.
In his speech In Cassyille last week he
said: "There can and there will be
no compromise in this contest. This
is a fight for a principle that a not
be compromised with honor. The
battle is already won and there is no
occasion for a compromise, but i'll
knew / could get the Governorship by
compromising the principles ! have
been ~contending for, and without this
| could not get it, I would not have
it. There is more honor In honest
private life than In life In high official
position gained by the sacrifice Of
painciple. There is more involved in
this fight than the personal ambition
of any man. 1t means more for the
State than the success or the defeat OF
any individual. l would feel that l
had proven recreant to the trust and
confidence Of the people we're | to con-
sent to a compromise of any nature,
character or conception. Democracy
means the rule of the people and /
am contending that the people should
govern the Democratic party, not any
clique or ring or boss. The heart and
the conscience Of the people is the
best machine any party can have. L
want the people to rule in the selec-
ton Of the nominees for other places
on the ticket. Whatever the people
want they should have. / shall not
presume to dictate what they shall do
In this respect. The people have
shown themselves fully competent to
act for themselves. All talk OF a
compromise and states is the merest
nonsense. l say there is no slate and
none will be made by my consent ex-
cept by the Democratic party in con-
vention assembled"

BEING a public spirited, progressive
man and seeing the need OF a map OF
Audrain county, giving the location
OF farms, names Of owners, roads,
creeks, etc, Mr.. j. N. Cross has pub.
lisned such a map. Its object was to
benefit every citizen Of the county
and keep Audrain abreast in line In
in the march OF progress. In other
counties of the State where such maps
are issued they are highly praised and
literally supported by the citizens.
Mr.. Gross undertook this work from a
spirit Of public enterprise and with
the hope Of enough patronage at least
to ecnre him from private loss, and
In this we hope he may not be disap-
pointed. This map is called the LED.
GER map, is well gotten up and sells
at a very low price. Mr.. Gross has a
reliable nan Ia the aeld taking orders
and selling maps and we trust he may
be literally patronized. Every man
owes 1t to public as well as private in
tereSts TO buy one OF these maps.

As a general proposition the Mexico

ruption in all Of their manifold forms,
have been advised TO preach the Cos

ed and impaired by contact with pol
itics, How puerile and unreasonable
are arguments of this kind to such
men as DR.. Holland and his colleagues
of the st. Louis churches, If the Cos
pei does not make good citizens, we
cannot hope for good government; If
the gospel does not inspire common
honesty and decency, il it does not
teach truth and morality, purity in
social and political life, all the creeds,
cateehisms, communions and sacred
tenents of our religion are worthless
dogmas and valueless formalities."

LOOSE MARRIAGE
VIEWS DENOUNCED.
In Handing Down Divorce Decision
Indiana Judge Makes Caustie
Comment

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, April 23.-A
scathing denunciation Of loose views
on the question Of marriage was heard
In the appellate court yesterday, When
Judge Robinson expressed himself OF
the subject In approving the action O
the Wells circuit court in refusing Il
grant a certain divorce.
Judge Robinson said that the rela-
ton OF marriage was something mors
more than a civic contract, and not
thing to be set aside at the whini Of
either party. Further, the judge sale
that the question Of marriage was one
in which the state is deeply interested
because upon that the relation Is
based the development and future
welfare OF the commonwealth. He
said, too, that divorces should not be
granted at random, and that a recon
ciliation should be effected wherever
practical.
The judge also announced In unmis'
taxable terms what he considered to
be the duties Of the trial judge. lie
said that the latter was practically
the representative OF the states wei
fare and future glory, and that he bad
a right to make all the investigation
in his power to learn the true status
OF affairs between husband aud wife.
He gave IL as his opinion that when
either party is shown to be equally
guilty, a divorce should be denied.

and refinement who will stay with us

Another Lie Nailed.


A gentleman of this city wrote to
Mi. e, @. Simmons, OF st. Louis, In re-
gard to the statements published that
he was soliciting financial aid for the
Folk campaign and charging that be
was a "silk stocking Republican, and
we have the letter in our possession
for anyone who would like to read it,
as we have not the space this week to
give 1t 10 full. Mr.. Simmons makes nc
denial Of the letter credited to him,
neither does he deny that he solicited
financial aid from friends for the Folk
campaign, as no campaign could be
carried on throughout the State with
out a fund to meet the great expenses
necessarily incurred in fighting the
bribers OF our legislators. Mr.. Sim
mons Indignantly resents the asser-
ton that be is a Republican. He says
he is and always has been a Demo
crat, as was his father before him. He
further says:
when Gov. Crittendon was in
office, | served as police commissioner
for the City OF st. Louls-that's his
tory, hence the man who says l am a
'silk.stocking Republican either does
it maliciously or to create q bad effect
else he is ignorant and shows his ig-
norance by making such a statement"
Thus the little lies limp lamely into
their roost.
The question a TO Folk is what has
be done and what is he going to do?
is not what Z. G. simmons writes
Or whether Mr.. vandiyer's pants were
ranked Of whether he ever had a pair
81 pants. The anti-Folk sheets have
published just such stuff as
this in order to divert the attention
81 the people from the grand work Mr..
Folk has inaugurated In behalf Of the

The mode Of wearing the yard
