Missouri'S Hornets Nest.

The Democratic Old Guard of
Missouri; is just beginning to real.
ize how mad it has been for the
last four years. In 1904 it lost
everything, baggage train includ'
ed. All went in the fearful and
unexpected swoop. Only one sur
vive,l. and he is the one whom the
Old Guard hates worst. More
ever, this intruder who obtained
the governorship while all bis as
sociates were slaughtered wants to
be senator, TINS making the Old
Guard determination complete.
The row in the Missouri delegation
at Denyer on Monday that so near
" came to fisticuffs is but one of
the symptoms of IL party feud that
constantly grows more bitter.
Though the Old Guard held the
whip hand in the caucus, it bad
been characteristically little pre-
vious in handling it's steam roller.
The caucus action was in the news
papers before the delegates met to
"deliberate." Promptness even to
excess has always been an Old
Guard trait. What it proposes TO
do is always rs cn;-and dried as a
bundle of old YARDS. A pitched
battle almost occurred in the Mis-
| souri, delegation. Aud the state
primary, the state cnInpnign, and
the senatorial primary are yet to
come. \ hot time is ahead for
these fierce antagonists. The Re-

Judge of the st. Louis Court of Ap-
peals.

Among other reasons why we adVo-
cate the nomination OF George d.
Reynolds for Judge OF the ST. Louis
Court OF Appeals, is that if he is NOM
mated and elected he will be dis
tiuctly practical Judge. His long ex-
perience as lawyer, not only 10 tue
court room but in the Office. has made
him familiar with all the questions
that from day to day confront the
practicipg lawyer. While learned and
well-read, and up to date in legal
knowledge, he Is essentially psactl-
cal business lawyer. He knows from
experience the difficulties the every
day lawyer and the active business
man meet with, and will be able to
appreciate. from long experience, inst
what Is involved. If on the b.nch.
he will not forget what he knows as a
lawyer and business man and will
be able to listen and act. not only
with thorough understanding. but
keen sympathy.
In other words, he has the great ad-
vantage OF long. active, practical ex-
perienee. He knows from that also

Bryan and Tammany.

Bryan has shown himself anxious
to win the favor of Tammany. AS
that famous, or infamous club,
rather, was passing through Lin
coin on its way home from the
Denver convention. Bryan and
Boss Murphy posed for photo
graph giving each other the ''glad
hand" What is the support Mr..
Bryan seeks through Tammany
The following taken from the July
number of Human Life" gives it
snscinctly thus:
Louie the Lump, strolIing on
Ocean Avenue, Coney Island,
meets his enemy, Kid Twist, and
collects him with his six shooter.
His weapon being out aud working
we'll, Louie the Lump casually
hives friend of Kid Twist, also
his enemy.
The deceased Twist in his day
he was twenty-five when called
way-had himself slain six men.
He was a member of the Monk
Eastman gang, while the victori.
Gus Louie is bri ght particular
star of the Five Point Association.
The East affects to deplore pis-
tol-cracking West, and yet there
are more of such killings, during
any one month in New York C,ty
alone, than occur from New Year 3
day to New Years day in the ter
ritories Of New Mexico and Ariz-
Ona.
| Nothing will be done with Louie
the Lump. Tammany Hall and
the politics it represents will pro-
tect him, as they protected the
puissant Twist during his brief but
smoky career. Tammany wonld
have saved Kid Twist if it could;
for be WAS of value on election day
twenty ballots at least. But he
is gone; and the courts (Tammany's
courts) will not avenge him. Tam
many is not one to cry over split
milk; and what is dead man but
split milks
Moreover, Louie the Lump is
himself multitudious voter.
Would Tammany better itself by
sacrificing him? Not so. Aud as
for the dead and buried Twist, at
worst his name remains, and Tam
many can register and vote on that.
Talking with central Office man
the other day, was told that he
could introduce me to fully one
thousand roughs on New York's
East side, all of whom had COM
mitted murder without slightest ef-
fort looking toward their punish
ment. Some Of them had killed
two or three. Tammany had pro-
tected them.
He, who is a professional crlmi'
nal in New York, does we'll to be-
come a repeater. His crimes on
election day will cover and condone
all others. The grand iuries will
pass him by; the courts will wink
the other eye. The police! The
criminal, grounded in the political
life of the town, deep in the graces
of Tammany Hall, laughs at when
he doesn't defy them. The situa
ton is like unto the three links in
the Odd Fellows emblem. The
politician is the middle link, hold
ing the policeman and the crimina
together while keeping them apart

AFTER 2s YEARS The
STOLEN BULLION FOUND
Fire I'm a Nebrasl<a Town Uncovers
Loot Of Famous Express Rob-
berry Of Many Years Ago.

A dispatch from Omaha states
that Supt. Patterson of the Pacific
Express company has returned to
Omaha from Sidney, Neb., bringing
with him two large bricks of bullion.
believed to represent part of the loot
of a robbery of the company's office
in Sidney. Neb.. in March, 1880. The
metal was found buried in the debris
of saloon which burned down two
weeks ago. The robbery was the
boldest of Its kind ever pulled off
in the west, and the bullion which
had been received that day by stage
from the Black Hills, was valued at
1927, 900. One of the bricks was
sold to the Denver mint year after
the robbery.
Sheriff Mccarthy, who then owned
the saloon which burned recently.
was believed to be the leader of the
robber band, but the Pacific Express
company was unable to secure his
Indictment. His brother was later
hanged by vigilantes. Mccarthy has
been dead several years. Supt. Pat
terson is trying to establish identifi-
cation of the metal. He says the
value of the bullion is indefinite, but
he will have 1t assayed at once.

MANY NEW IMPROVEMENTS
ARE TO BE MADE SOON.

Manager John F. Moore and As
sistant Manager F. II. Davis, of the
Junction association, were In Pali-
sade Monday evening for the pur-
pose of outlining the business OF the
above association at this point for
the year. The above gentlemen to
gether with Directors Hotties and
Bridges talked over many important
matters relative to the associations
business at this point and decided
upon many things that Will be of
interest to the growers.
Among other things it was decided
to employ competent man at this
point to instruct the growers In prun-
ing. thinning, picking and the hand
ling of fruit in general.
The platform is to be extended
east to Kluge avenue and will cover
all of the available space joining the
siding belonging to the association.
The question of switch to be To-
Gated three miles west OF Palisade
was also brought up. An effort will
be made to have this siding built SO
that fruit may be shipped from there
by July l, or earlier. The shipments
at the new switch will be looked af-
ter by the Palisade office and will
be credited to Palisade business. A
general fruit record is also to be kept
at the Palisade office which will be
beneficial to the growers In many
ways. Messrs. j. v. Barnes and Phil.
Boiler were employed to manage the
affairs OF the association at the PAIL
sade branch the coming season.
1t was also decided to hold a pub
lie meeting In Palisade In the near
future, at which time Manager Moore
and others will explain to the grow
ers In detail their plan for handling
the fruit the coming year.-Palisade

WHAT BRYAN SA7srA6ogI
R0oSEELf's MESSAGE
The. Commoner Hays TIE Message Il .
Brave One and Congress should
Get q Move on Itself.

William ]. Bryan Saturday issued
statement while at Wilmington,
Delaware, bearing on the presi-
dents message sent to congress to-
day. In prefacing the moral courage
Of Roosevelt in fighting against the
opposition he has to contend with
Referring to the Wall street meth
ods. the speaker said It would be q
safe bet that after the presidents
message today the financiers would
see that they could place no depen J.
ence on Roosevelt as a friend Of the
system" His statement ON the
presidents message follows:
ut Is a brave message and needed
at this time. All frien Is of reform
have reason to rejoice that the presf-
dent has used his high position to
call attention to the wrongs that need
to be remedIed. He has discovered
the running sore In our national life.
He has pointed out the corrupting In
fiuences that flow from predatory
wealth and from the monopolistic
enterprises which have given unearn-
ed riches to the few, who. by con-
trolling the great industrie, of the
nation. have levied tribute upon the
whole country.
Its warnings are entirely In har-
mony with the warnings which DEM
ocrats have been issuing for more
than decade, and I hope that the
Democrats In the senate and the
house will promptly challenge the
Issues that have been presented by
the president.
There ought to be enough Roose-
velt Republicans in the two houses
to join with the Democrats and in
sure some remedial legislation at this
session. II there be none, the public
ought to know 1t, SO that when the
next Republican national convention
endorses the present administration
the hypocrisy of the party will be un-
derstood.
THE president has discussed the
relative spheres of the state ami Of
the nation. l hope that in the meas
ure which may be introduced In re-
sponse to this appeal there will be
no attempt to take from the states
any power that they now have. The
Democrats are In favor of the fullest
employment of the power vested In
congress, but they want national
remedies. and not substitutes for
them. II the presidents Republican
friends will join with the Democrats
in devising legislation which will be
effective and yet within the recog-
nized constitutional power of con-
gress. great good may be accomplish
ed before congress adjourns.
THE president has issued call to
arms. Now let the battle begin, and
we shall soon be able to pick out the
newspapers and the pur-
chased legislators described by the
president. but not specifically
named"
