such fellows as Morton and Orchard

for the breeders bill that put Mis-

He assisted by his vote and efforts, in
the Senate of Missouri, to legalize

He helped to fasten upon the
people of st. Louis the Infamous Mes

years the st. Louis members of the

Republicans, and so expert in the
business did they become that they
have since been trying their hand on
their own party. AS illustration, see

it is a Democratic fake; that diligent

a secretary have failed; that no min

knows anything whatever of such a
society or such a secretary; that the
chief statements contained in the cir

the circular evidently was prepared

a campaign trick-an effort to poison
the minds of honest Christian and
temperance voters for political pur-

scrupulous politicians the religious

to remember that the same reasons

that were used four years ago. He Is
no better now than he was then, but
on the contrary, is more closely al

him in the Office of Attorney General,
where they will need a friend. Mr..
Fulkerson's speeches have been very
frank and plain in dealing with the
record of Major. In a recent speech
