THE NATIONAL RESULT.
THE NATIONAL RESULT.

The result on the National ticket is
simply a Republican landslide. The
administration of Roosevelt is endors-
ed by the people hich means higher
tariff, a larger army and navy and
continuation of our foreign policies.
The high tariff. the dominating
trusts and the commercial combines
which so augment the cost Of living
are to be continued in full force and
effect for the people have proclaimed
by a most overwhelming majority that
they are satisfied with them.
In Judge Parker the Democrats pre-
scented to the country clean. able
and conservative man, whose charac-
ter is without flaw.
The only draw back was the men
behind him in New York.
David Hill, a party traitor of the
worst stamp was his sponsor and
another cloud in the horizon was Gro
yer Cleveland, a man held in contempt
by all self-respecting Democrats.
Belmont with his money forced the
nomination upon the party and we
were asked to repudiate many OF the
well chosen dogmas of Democracy
and accept what New York could give
us.
The candidate. while a man of the
highest character, was gold stand
ard man and openly admitted, which
estranged many votes in the West.
His declaration on the money ques
ton was regarded by his eastern ad
mirers as giving him New York be
yond a doubt. This idea seems Il
have been altogether fallacious AMI
the result does not indicate any yer.
great love for the gold STANDARD
among the Democrats of New York.
This defeat will be valuable lesso1
for Democracy and the next Nationa
candidate will be placed in the from
by real Democrats with Democrat
principles The result is vindicatio
of Brayan's views on the entire situs
ton and the men who exulted i
heaping insult upon Bryan at tn
National Convention will now hav
time to reflect upon their course whic
seemed to have been guided only b
short sighted malice.

A visit from Sousa is one of the
musical events of the season that will
be gladly welcomed. The March King
knows exactly what kind of music his
public-the great body of music livers
most prefer, and he gives it to them
freely and graciously. His present
tour will be his seventh trans-conti-
mental trip and he will visit all the
remote sections where his famous
band has not yet been heard. Mr..
Sousa will appear at the Opera House
this afternoon at p. m. sharp.
! The soloists on the present tour
are Estelle Liebling soprano; Jessie
Straus, violinist and Herbert L. Clarke
cornetist.

This week or next may see the fal
OF Port Arthur. The Siege wearied
garrison is apparently making 1T
last stand. 1t appears to be the de
termination OF Commander General
Stoessel to require the humiliation
OF the troops at his command and
give up bis own life In the unequal
and hopeless struggle. The eondi,
ton In Port Arthur, as reported by
correspondents who have escaped
from the illfated city, is horrible in
the extreme and beggars belief. The
dead are left unburried to rot In the
streets, and wounded are suffered to
die among the dead, after suffering
for days unattended. The rules OF
civilized warfare have been disre
garded and the flag Of truce Is no
longer respected and the red cross
can not carry on It's work OF reliev-
ing the wounded. Oh, the horrors
OF war which makes beasts OF civil.

FOLK ON BUTLER INTERVIEW
Fresh Evidence Of an UnhOly

Linneus, Mo-, Sept. 19.-Rsgsrd-
ing the interview given by Ed Butler,
published in the Globe Democrat
yesterday, to the effect that he had
contributed to Mr.. Folks campaign
fund, Mr. Folk said to a reporter for

Making Corporations Bear
Their Share Of the Burden

Sam B. Cook, writing to a Bolton
citizen says: 81 think one OF the best
records the Democratic party has
ever made Is the assessment OF cor
porations. These compared with the
assessment by other states, show
how the Democratic party has kept
down taxes on individual property
by making corporations bear their
just proportion Of this burden. The
present state board OF equalization
has increased the assessment OF
steam railroads and public service
corporations during the four years
just past, nearly thirty million dol
lars. The steam railways alone have
been increased more than $4,000
per mile. The Lexington & South
ern branch OF the Missouri Pacific,
which runs from Cassville to Joplin
has been increased by the present
board %, 757 per mile, or total for
county Of nearly 100000. 1 think
II you would look at your farm as
sessments you will find that there has
been practically no increase during
the corresponding period. At least
there has been none in my section
OF the state, although farm lands
have advanced in value nearly SO
per cent. Very truly yours,
SAM B Cook"

that the Democratic National cam,

TWO YOUNG GIRLS CONFESS

Marlin, Texas, Sep :. 18.-The mys.
terry surrounding the killing Of c. s.
Stewart, a farmer living eight miles
south OF here, was cleared to-day by
the confession Of bis two little girls
II and 13 years old, that they com.
mitted the crime. Stewards body
was found yesterday morning on q
cot on the porch oihis home. An ak
had been used. The girls said at
first that they heard no noise during
the night, and that they did not
know who killed their father. Their
bloody clothes caused suspicion, and
after sharp questioning they confess
ed.
According to the story Of the little
girls their father was about to re.
marry, their mother being dead.
They objected Two days ago a
letter came from him during his abb
sence. II was from the prospective
stepmother and th echildren destroy
ed It. Their father learned OF this
and When became home Friday night
he told his two little girls that he
was going to kill them and that they
must say their prayers. After be had
fallen asleep the two girls got an az
and killed him.

Walbridge'S Unexplained Recort

Editorial, Post Dispatch.
On August Z the Post Dispatch
published page giving the records
OF Col. Walbridge In the house Of
delegates, the council and the may.
or's office. The records showed that
the present Republican candidate for
governor, during bis entire Official
career In this city, not only failed to
oppose, denounce or expose the
Doodle combines and machine gangs
which were plundering the city, but
actually worked with them. They
show that as mayor he surrounded
himself with henchmen, some OF
whom we're OF the most unworthy
character and malodorous reputa-
tion; that he helped his friends to
get municipal contracts detrimental
to the city's interests and sdvan-
tageous to their own; that he devot-
ed his time to building up a personal
and party machine OF an obnoxious
type.
In the Council Col. Walbridge
helped to jam through, against pub
lie protests, the Ed Buffers garbage
contract grab, from the evil effects
Of which the city has suffered to the
present day. That was the begin.
ming Of a marked fri ndship between
Walbridge and Butler.
The records show that Col. Wal.
bridge supported franchise grabs, fol
the promotion OF which evidence sub
sequently brought to light showed
that 100000 in brides had been ex
pended.
More than a month and a half hal
passed since these facts were pub
lished, yet Col. Walbridge has not
said a word in his own defense or ir
explanation OF his actions. 1t Is fail
to assume that he Stands pat" OF
the records as published.
1t is hardly necessary to contrast
this record Of acquiescence in legisla
tive iobbery and machine bossisu
with the aggressive, brilliant fight o
Circuit Attorney Folk against all o
the combined forces Of the boodlerl
and the corrupt machine. II Col
Walbridge knew OF the rascality
which was carried on around him
he is OF course unfit to be governor
Of Missouri. II he did not discover
what was patent to everybody wht
knew anything about municipa
matters, he is not the man to put OF
guard at the state capital. In eithel
event his candidacy Is an appeal tt
corruptionists.

st. Louis. No, Sept 16, 1904.
Ed. TnIEs,-Dear SIR. We have Just
to-day received your paper, the first
since we left home. andhow delighted
We were. We devoured the contents
like they were delicious fruit, so
eager were We to receive the home
news.
Well, this much Of our trip Is over
and we are nicely and safely landed
at the foot of Haven street, In Csron-
dolet, in the extreme south part Of
st. Louis proper. We first landed
near the Merchants bridge 10 the
north part Of the city, but 1t was a
very undesirable place and we moved
down about ten miles to this place.
Cere we have every convenience one
could wish, street cars only a block
away, mail. storee. ice. dairy, water.
all near by.
Our experiences continued right on
since l wrote you last We ran from
Limerick to Tuscumbia, a distance
OF sixty-fve miles, 10 one day, and
we thought We were ''iairly flying"
We had both wind and current In our
favor. We ran into 0sase City about
dark Saturday evening and floated
out into the muddy Missouri early
Sunday, and had our second encoun.
ter with the steamboat waves.
forgot to cay We met our first
steamboat after We left Tuscumbia,
and how the waves did shake US, and
was awiully frightened, though the
rest did not mind them much.
1t took us three days and hall on
the Missouri river. but the wind was
against US two days. We went out
OF the Missouri river about three
O'Clock in the afternoon and were met
by a most terrific gale coming up the
Mississippi river. and we had to
oar and steer pretty hard to keep
from being blown ashore on the sand
bar, and In the attempt We met the
"Spresd Eagle" a large steamboat
which makes regular daily trips from
st. Louis to Alton, ILL.,, and thought
we were surely going under that
time. The water was so extremely
rough that We finally, after a great
effort, landed across the river ON the
Illinois side for the night. We con.
tinued on the next morning and
landed at an leland about elk miles
above st. Louis until the men came
down and found us a landing place
nearer the city. We moved on down
Sunday morning and landed for
week at that place before we came
farther down.
We have been out to the fair quite
a number Of times, and Ii is fine.
Papa and his uncle, who came with
us, are spending q week over In Ills.
We have had very pleasant weather
since landing, although the water
has been quite rough for several
days. Yours respectfully,
AMY MCCONNELL.

THE TREE JUDGED BY ITS FRUITS

The Tree JUDGED BY IFS FRUlIS.
We are taught in Holy Writ that a
tree is judged by the fruit 1t bears.
Two thousand years of Christian era
has given no better way. By such a
law the Democratic party in Bates
county is willing to stand judgment
for its management OF county affairs
for the past thirty years.
When the Democrats came into
power in 1873 they followed the
reign OF Republicanism that had left
the county in debt, taxes exhorbi-
family high, immense railroad bond.
ed debts iraudulently saddled upon
q number of the townships by cor
rupt county court. A Republican
sheriff and collector had deiaulted
for more than thirty thousand dol
lars, part of which was recovered to
the people by an honest and efficient
Democratic county clerk Voters
were intimidated and driven away
from the polls by armed rufiiians
Surely the fruit preiudged the tree,
and the people arose in their might
and the change was made.
Under Democratic rule in few
years the county was out OF debt,
taxes were lowered year by year and
still the revenues were sufficient to
meet all Legitimate expenses and
noEe internal improvements as they
were needed. A splendid system OF
substantial bridges span our streams
and not a year passes but what new
ones are being built, and old ones
kept In repair, which system will be
continued under Democratic admin
istration. We have a fine stone court
house. commodius, convenient, and
modern throughout, where the
records OF our county are safe, and
which is source OF qualification and
pride to every citizen OF the county,
and which was constructed and fur.
nished without the eemblance OF q
graft, and every dollar honestly &C
counted, all within the limits OF the
appropriation.
What would be thought Of the
husbandman who would cut down
the tree that was bearing the best
fruits in all his orchard, and replant
it with seed from q tree which had
been previously condemned because
it brought forth bad fruit?
10 1890 a hue and cry was raised
that the books which had been In
one party's hands 80 long should bt
examined. Not that any evidences
was produced that anything was
wrong, but on a mere suspicion that
there might be something wrong,
the Democratic party Was defeated,
and the first acts Of q populist court
was to order an investigation, which
extended back for the full term the
:
Democrats had been in power, and
which examination demonstrated
that the books we're correct, and
every cent Of the peoples money en-.
trusted to Democratic officials had
been honestly accounted for. The
following election the Democratic
party was re-established In power.
With such record Of fidelity to
the peoples trust, what Legitimate
reasons can be advanced why the
Democratic party should be defeated
In Bates county, and what splendid
and unanswerable arguments why
they should be continued In powerso
long az they are faithful to the trust.
