Speaking of the nomination OF a
Democrat for Judge of the st.
Louis Court of Appeals to fill the
vacancy occasional by the resigna-
ton of Judge Goode, the Charles
ton Enterprise says: There are
about seventeen counties of South
east Missouri within this jurisdic.
ton an. it is a well known fact
that since the organization Of the
district Southeast Missouri has
never been represented on this
bench. It seems that now the time
is ripe to give us this recognition
as q reward for the services South
east has done for the Democratic
party in the State. We know OF
no man more peculiarly qualified
or this position than Mr.. Marbury
He is Southeast Missourian Ia

his own county and judicial circuit

nee, the Enterprise believes that
the Republican majority at the last
election would be overcome. The
Southeast would certainly rally to
the support of her native son and
able lawyer.

more for what he did not say than
TOT what ne shiu.
Mr.. Elvins did not tell us about
the deal shadowing the Bonnie Terre

the FredcricktOwn post Office deal
nor did he explain why the load
mines Of Madison county are shut
down; nor why the tiff industry Of
Washington county is dead; nor
how 1t is that wages in St. Francois
county are much lower than in Jas
per county for the same character
of work; nor did he explain how it
is that the cost Of living is cOrre-
spOndingly 50 much greater than
wages.
Hon. Walter l.. Hensley, the
Democratic nominee for Congress,
stated in his speech that he did not
come to make political speech,
nor did he believe that political
speech from opposing nominees for
Congress was in good taste at such

advantage Of the time and place he
was compelled to reply, and pro-
ceeded to reply in an emphatic and
able speech that aroused enthusi-

plause:
Mr.. Elyins said that Mr.. Hensley
had defeated him for Prosecuting
Attorney of this county some few
years ago; but Lincoln was also de-
feated by Douglas in 1886 for United

afterwards defeated Douglas for
President in 1860, and as Lincoln
was being "swOrn inn as President, |

ing to keep the tariff on manufactur-
ed articles yet lower the duties on
food products. He held that protec-
tioalsts should stand together and
that protection should help all or
none.
But it was this tendency on the
part of protectionists to combine
forces that has brought the cause of
protection into disrepute. 1t was evil
dent when the Panyne-Aldrich bill
was being drafted that the congress
men and senators from protection
states were in league. There was lit
tie effort towards fixing schedules in
accordance with the merits of the
cases. 1t was purely a logrolling pro-
position and senator's and congress
men merely answered me too" when
their leader spoke.
With such a system as this in op-
Grafton what chance has the consum-

The adoption of the commission
plan would do away with this vicious
system. Surely it is time it was ad-
opted,
