THE reputation OF the Parker
ticket and party by the Chicago
Chronicle is only one Of the mani
festations OF the coming collapse
for the unfortunate old Democracy
"A timd Eastern Democrat. says
The Chicago paper. "who fondly
imagined that he could be nomin
ated as an unknown, has been
placed on the ticket with An octog
enarian free silverite from West
Virginia. and supplied with a plat
form which amounts to an indosse
ment Of the platforms Of Chicago
and Kansas City" Though a lite
long Democrat. the Chronicle says
that "as at present constituted and
led, the Democratic party is a
menace to the peace. the pros
peiity and the integrity OF the
United States and its people. :"
This will be the opinion OF avery
large element OF the Democracy in
the middle West and the East.

Some time before the boat sailed a
maiden lady of uncertain age, bound

politeness off came the officers hat and
with low bow he asked, Madam,
are you glad to leave the Paradise of

there was any one to care for me

Good-bye!" said the servant of Uncle
Sam and deliberately turned his back
on a glorious opportunity.

Motion for New Trial Is Made and
Defendant Told t. Appear in Court
From Day to Day Until Areu-
ment Is Heard.
st. Louis, March 29.-Joseph Ralph
Burton, United States senator from
Kansas, was convicted by jury in
the United States district court on the
charge of having accepted compensa-
tion to protect the interests of the
Rialto Grain and Securities company
of st. Louis before the postoffice de-
partment. The jury deliberated forty.
one hours.
A motion for a new trial was imme-
diately filed by the counsel for the
senator Judge Adams thcreupou Or
dered that Senator Burton appear in
court, either in person or by proxy,
at 10 o'clock from day TO day until the
court has heard the arguments for n
new trial. and il this be decided
against him the court will then fix his
punishment.
Fer time there threatened to be Il
disagreement in the Jury. Tho jury
was brought before Judge Adams. who
asked the cause for the long delay.
He was told that eleven jurors had
agreed, but the twelfth stood alone.
The court admonished the lone juror
that the expense of new trial should
not be incurred because of him failing
to agree with the majority of the jur-
ors. A precedent was quoted showing
that the majority of the jurors should
decide the case before them and a
verdict be rendered accordingly. The
jury was told to go back and poll its
vote once more. Soon after the jury
reported, bringing in verdict, but
Judge Adams found the third count in
the Indictment had not been consid-
cred, and again he sent the jury back
to consider the case without having
announced the verdict returned.
The third time the jury entered the
court room the result of its delibera-
tions was announced. and United
States Senator Burton stood convicted
| on the charges brought against him In
| the Indictment. Senator Burton's re-
course is an appeal to the United
States circuit court of appeals. which
body is the final arbiter in his case.

For Aldermau-3d Ward
CHARLES McCALLISTBR
For Alderman-4th Ward
WILLIAM H. HOSKIN

Last Saturday evening the city cent
raj committee of the Democratic party
met and nominated Charles E. Philips
for mayor to fill vacancy occasioned by
the resignation of Mayor Kruse. This
nomination completes the Democratic
ticket, and it is now up to the voters to
make their choice for the best interests
of the city. Before voting carefully com
pare both tickets and we are satisfied
that yon will then vote the Democratic
ticket.
In the nomination for mayor, the
Philips has served four years as alder
man in our city council, and as such is
we'll acquainted with the entire city af-
fairs and it would not take him as long
to become acquainted with the duties
of the mayor as it would an inexperienced
man. Besides this he is large taxpayer,
has resided here for almost his entire
life, and would make an excellent presid-
ing officer.
As to the remainder of the nominees
everyone knows them, and We surely
believe there is no need of commenting
too extensively upon their lives or bust
ness ability, as they are men we'll known
for their integrity and if elected will
serve the people to the best of their abil-
ity, and what they believe to be for the
city's best interests
In the first ward the nominee is Mitch
Griffith. In the second Ed, Cody. In
the third Kit McCallister, and in the
fourth VIM. H. Hoskin.
Opposed to them are Burritt Sey mour
in the first Christian Fisher in the sec
ond, Robet Wilkinson in the third and
John G. Williams in the fourth. We be-
lieve that all men are well known in
their respective wards and it is for the
voters to make their choice, and then
forever to hold their peace and assist
the winners. at least for another year.
