GREAT VICTORY
In Sight - Bryan and Cowherd Will
Garry the State by $4,000.
Last Letter from Democratic Head
quarters.

Democrats may confidently rely OH !
a majority of $4,000 for Bryan and
Cowherd in Missouri. This asser- /
ton is based upon reliable infor-
nation, as well as upon Democratic
enthusiasm and Republican apathy.
1t is also based upon the expecta-
ton that every Democrat in Mis-
souri, will do his full duty by going
to the polls.
The Republicans hope to carry |
st. Louis by means of a heavy
padded registration n the down !
town negro wards. The Democrat
ic committees will do their utmost |
to thwart their effort to steal the
city election, but only the returns
will tell the story.
Charles Nagel, well known as a
leading attorney for the Standard
Oil Company, has been stumping
the State for Hadley and Taft and
the people of the State may rest as
sured that Standard Oil money will
be put into the Republican CAM

who are its friends and have no

Using, 6rand-stand plays of Iadley,

Dick Kerens, the multi-milliOn-
ARE owner of railroads, coal mines,
and organizer of trusts. and whose
only claim to public attention is
the fact that he has grown i'm
mensely rich at the expense Of the
people, is making an effort to Sc
cure the election Of the Republican
legislature, that he may 60 to the
senate: and, to this end, he has con-
tributed to the Republican State
Committee fifteen thousand dollars
to aid in carrying the State for Had
ley and to secure Republican legiS-
= lature. This money is to be used
for the purpose, if possible, of buy
ing up the floating vote in the cit
les and close counties that his pur-
porse may be accomplished
Missouri has been for many years
past, represented by men who were
sent to the Senate because Of their
ability, not on account of wealth.
They have been men of modest
means and their honesty and integ-
rity have never been questioned
Our grand old Democratic State
will never descend to the level Of
Nevada and Rhode Island and West
Virginia, where only multi-million-
aires can get into the United States
Senate. Let the Democratic hosts
; see to it, on Tuesday next, that the
desires of Mr.. Kerens, the moneyed
mainstay of Missouri Republicans,
r are set at naught.
5 No such opportunity has been
presented to the Democracy Of
Missouri since 1896 as we have in
l this campaign. We can place this
great State in the fore front Of the
grand galaxy of Democratic hosts.
We can roll up a majority that will
: once more, and for generation, set
;. at rest the question of her rock-rib-
bed Democratic supremacy. This
requires only the active, enthusiast
Il tic efforts of the individual mem
y bers of our party. Go to the polls

AFTER THE BALL.
CALIFORNIA; First Clearing House Was
'"* Not a Financial One.

The meaning of the term clear
ing bssse" may not perhaps be IA
miliar to all people outside OF bank
inc and commercial circles. An in
cident which occurred during our
civil war may give clear though
homely idea OF what a clearing
house is.
The occasion was in 1864, when
the citizens-of San Francisco gave
the famous ''Russian BALI to the Of
ficers of the Russian fleet OF war,
ships in San Francisco's harbor,
which had been sent to the federal
government by the emperor OF Rus
STA to the assistance of the northern
states in that war.
That bali was the most brilliant
affair of its kind that has ever taken
place in California, 1t was attend
ed by the governor and all the state
and municipal officers, the members
of the supreme and superior courts,
all the foreign eonsuls and the OIL
GERS of the army and navy within
reach of San Francisco, besides
many of the old and wealthy Span
ish families from southern Califor-
MIA, all handsomely dressed and re-
splendent in diamond ornaments.
The large hall was splendidly dec
GRATED with Russian and. American
flags intwined. The flags of the for
eign consuls and lines of cages of
singing canary birds were hung
around the gallery. A military
band and a string band supplied the
music. On the stage of the hall
were stacks of arms and accouter-
ments of war, while the rich dresses
of the ladies and the uniforms OF
the officers of the navy and army
together with the grand official re-
gala Of the foreign consuis, made
it a scene Of splendor and a wonder
and delight to the Russian sailors.
i After the supper, which was serv'
ed in keeping with the rest of thu
ball, the Russian officers, the con
suls and many Of the guests Of hon

PARKER SAYS
EAST FOR BRYAN
Pensacolian Returns From
New York Greatly I'M
pressed With Senti-
ment There.

c. W. Parker, of the Watson, Par
ker & Reese Co, who returned last
week from New York where he had
been on a buying tour, says that bust
ness conditions in the metropolis are
Frightening up to a remarkable de-
gree. The demands for goods all over
the country are heavier IN New York,
Mr.. Parker says, than they have been
at any time since the 1907 panic and
prospects for a good season and for
continued better times are very
bright.
Mr. Parker was also greatly impress
ed with the political sentiment that he
says seems TO exist everywhere among
the business element of New York
city. That sentiment, he says is TO
the effect that Bryan will certainly
carry New York state and that mis-
prospects of election are exceptionally
bright. This opinion, Mr.. Parker de-
clares, exists generally among the
of men, among whom he meta class
of men, among wdom it would hardly
be expected that such sentiment
would prevail
Mr.. Parker was in Baltimore on the
occasion of Bryan's speech in that city
and he says he never witnessed SO
large or so enthusiastic a demonstra-
ton for anyone anywhere. The East
seems to be taking to Bryan this year.
