Dave Ball Not a Gutter.

1t seems that the Republican pa
pers OF she State are working over
time to make 1t appear that a split
in the Democratic party in Missouri
Is, II not an established fact, at least
a very real probability. The latest
that we have seen, is to the effect
that the Ball men will support Had
ley for Governor. The editor of the
Telegraph has known Dave Ball for
q quarter oi u century, aud while he
has usually opposed Mr.. Ball as a
candidate, yet common decency i'm
les him to say that whatever else
may be charged TO Dave Ball be is
not a gutter, and II the Republicans
are de- lending on Ball and his friends
to elect Hadley they may as we'll
Withdraw from the fight now. Ball
and his friends will be at the polls In
November and they will vote the
Democratic ticket from president to
constable.-Fulton Telegraph.

Sankey's Great Song.
From the Ohio State Journal.

From the Ohio State Journal.
In noting the death OF Ira d. San
key, the great gospel singer, many
newspapers give his picture in con-
nection with the copy OF the song,
with the notes, OF Ninety and Nine. !"
This was his great song and Is will
20 with his fame as long rs 1t lasts.
The words are those of an obscure
poet In Scotland and Sankey hap
pened to pick them up somewhere,
and to give them wings. Tits noble
hymn and the revival OF It, through
the death OF Mr.. Sankey, will be d
distinct advantage to the religious
world. We heard a choir once sing
"Ninety and Nine" to some new
tangled tune, and it was quite annoy
Ing. These old songs, that have
sung their ways into peoples hearts,
should never be separated from the
tunes that gave them fame. That
old tune, that gave "Ninety and
Nine" it's fame, was an inspiration,
and it is almost sacrilege to sing the
song to any other tune.

A few HINTS TO VOTERS.

The Commoner.
Before casting your vote with the
Republican party remember some OF
these things:
First-The failure Of the Republi.
can party to take steps to provide
for electing senators by popular
vote, and the refusal Of the Republl-
can convention TO endorse she re,
form.
Second-The failure OF the Repubh
can congress TO pass bill providing
for publicity Of campaign contribu'
tions and the refusal OF the Republi-
can convention even to endorse the
reform.
Third-The failure OF the Rspubli-
can congress to pass a postal saw
ings bank bill and the hypocrisy OF
the party In endorsing this reform,
which Is had just ignored in congress.
Fourth-The passage by the Re
publican congress Of a currency bill
which enables speculative banks to
convert all sorts OF securities into
currency and actually reduces the
margin OF safety for depositors In.
stead OF increasing 1t.
Fifth-The destruction OF represen'
tative government In the lower
house, where the Republican speaker
and his committee on rules have all
power and not even majority can
get vote on popular bill II the
speaker refuses consent.
SiXth-The iorty,nine per cent In
crease In the cost OF living under the
Republican Dingley tariff and Isl
trusts, while wages have increased
only nineteen per cent,
Seventh-The refusal OF the Repub
llcan congress to amend this tariff
although It's iniquities are admitted
and future revision has been reluc
sanity promised by it's friends aisel
the storm Ia over.
| Eighth-The notorious fact admit
ted by Senator Aldrich, Republican
leader In the senate, that American
tariff protected concerns sell thei
products abroad in competition will
European factories at lower price,
than they exact from American con
sumers and the refusal OF the Repub
licsn house of representatives Il
adopt an amendment TO have ou
government agents report on thes
prices.
Ninth-The Republican leaders pre-
tend they favor tariff sufficien
only to compensate factories Tor tn
difference between labor cost II
America and abroad, but the fact i
that the Republican tariff Is NOR
than sufficient to pay the whole la
Dor cost. On steel products the la
Dor cost fifteen per cent and the tarii
Is thirtY.two per cent.

Concerning Negro Equality.

The SIS. Louis Star. Chronicle, a
strong Republican sheet, owned by
Nathan Frank, an ex Republican
Congressman, had she following edi-
torial a few days ago;
"rhe race question seems to rifle
the North just as much, II not more,
than it does the South, as witness
the riots at Spring field, Ill the home
OF the great emantipstor. After
while the American public will realize
shat what the black man is after Ia
social (sexuD equalisy-snd that all
the coddling and petting he gets in
tine North merely confirms him In his
delusion that q large proportion of
the whites want him TO have it, But
these riots in nor.herp cities surpass
10 brutality and bloodlust anything
ever heard OF in the South. The
moral ia that the white race will not
mix with the inferior races. The
northern cities are disposed to NOR.
alize and theorize q gre 1t deal over
the black brother but when their
black brother, attempts TO exercise
the rights of irsternity, they hunt
him and shoot him, hang him or
burn him with speed and determine
ton, never equaled south OF Mason
and Dixon's line"
When brought down 10 its last an
lysis the difference between the
North and the South Is this. The
North believes theoretically In social
equality Of the races, II the races hap
pen to be In the South; but when It
comes home TO them they don't prac-
tice what they preach. They don't
pretend to believe In equality before
the law when Il comes to industrial
questions, but deliberately shut the
negro out OF their labor unions, and
then boycott any employer who dares
to hire non.unlon labor. In the
South the negro Is given TO under
stand that he is Inferior to the white
race socially; but all Industrial per
suits are open to him and he is given
atquare deal. He is. paid as much
for a days labor as his white com.
petitor and given an honest days

depots, q separate coach on the
trains, and separate schools and
churches. In short he is recognized
rs a negro and treated as such. This
. is the only solution of the so-calleC
race problem. AS the North becomes
more enlightened, 1t will realize thai
It has made q woeiul mistake, anC
that its fanatics have done the negro
irreparsble injury, by building up II
, his heart a hope for social equalis!
! which can never be realized. Wher
