THE success of the Kansas City
Post is remarkable. No new daily
in the West ever before got to the
front so fast. Its telegraphic SER
vice and market reports, along
with it's comic section and maya
zine features T up to the best
given in any of the old dailies. 1t
now seems to be a settled fact that
the Democracy of the Missouri
valley is sure of a newspaper that
will stand for its principles and
support it's nominees. The Post is
only $3.50 a year. Democrats in
this section will show their good
faith by sending in their names
along with the cash to Mr.. B. j.
Sheridan, the editor and manager
of what is beyond doubt the
strongest and best Democratic
daily between st. Louis and Dem
yer.

In MemoPiam.

The mem'ries of our childhood days,
To us but yesterday they seemi
The playmates of that long ago
Some still are drifting on life's stream.
But many of those girls and boys
Have passed away and gone before,
And now they stand arrayed in white,
So happy on the other shore.
Each mourns the loss of some dear one
Husband, sister, or a brother;
Perhaps it is a loving wife,
Father, child, or maybe mother.
Those precious ones we loved have gone
To that eternal land of rest;
Their work in life was nobly done,
And now they stand forever blessed.
If we but only could bring back
Those dear ones to this world again,
Would we, but for our selfish ends,
Recall them from that heavenly train?
Now they from earth havr passed away,
And naught that vacancy can fill;
Tho tears will flow, still let us bow
In meek submission to His will.
This life is but a fleeing BREATH"
Our race on earth will soon be run;
And il our work has faithful been,
He then to us will say, well done

THE Governor has called an
extra session of the Legislature to
meet April I'd. One of the matters
he proposes to submit to it's con-
sideration is his pet project of in
vesting himself with the power to
discipline and chastise sheriffs and
prosecuting attorneys at his own
sweet will. OF course, provision
is made in the proposed law that
his action is to be made resultant
upon and subject to the petition of
three or more citizens of the coun-
ty affected. This is one of it's
sleekest subterfuges; for, the Gov
ernor desiring to ~disparage any
official, the petition will readily
and easily be procured. In all the
history of Missouri legislation, a
more impudent and undemocratic
measure has never been suggested.
1t says to the people of the several
communities, "You, as a body,
have neither the intelligence nor
the virtue necessary to your well
fare and safe-being. The Cover
nor, with a chosen few, must see
to it that your officials are kept in
proper subsection to the law and
diligent in it's enforcement; your
courts and your juries are in
efficient in dealing with misfeas-
ance or malfeasance in Office"

myth; all power ought to be

WHEN the Aldrich currency bill
was discussed in the Senate Mr..
Nelson of Minnesota urged an
amendment providing that nation
al banks receiving government de-
posts of money should pay two
per cent. interest upon them. The
amendment failed. How this must
bleed the hearts of the Republican
''gang" of Iron county! The gov
eminent has hundreds of millions
of dollars deposited in the national
banks, year after year, without
interest. To be consistent, the To-
cal Republican patriots are bound
to cut loose from the national

themselves.

While Gen. Funston was there I

situation grave and he gave me to
