PUTNAM STANDS 10y
ALLY BY HILBURN.

No candidate ever had the more solid
support of his home county than Sam
Hilburn is receiving in Putnam. The
mass meeting endorsing his candidacy
was the first collective manifestation OF
this condition; the meeting OF the cam
paign committee a few nights ago was
another. This was an occasion when
his fellow citizens came together and
discussed with all the earnestness of
conviction and determination the plans
for thorough organization to get the
voters qualified and then get them TO
vote. There was no question as to
whom they would vote for; that was I'm
derStood, Ii would be strange if there
was absolutely no opposition to Hilburn
in his home county; there is some.
Every strong man makes some enemies
in the course of his career. Every man
who fights for the right, as Sam Hilburn
has, will array in the course of long
residence some persons to oppose his
advancement; this is granted. But this
opposition is composed of a corporal's
guard in Putnam county. The greatest
harm that they will do him is by circu-
lating reports outside of Putnam to the
effect that Hilburn will not carry his
own county. This has been done. 1t
is not for US TO say to the people OF Put
nam how false and unfounded such
statements are, but it is of great impor-
lance that the people of the district
should be informed of the true condi.
ton in Putnam county. As was stated
in the first paragraph, there was never
candidate who had the more solid sup
port of his immediate constituency than
Hilburn has. In this repect he has the
decided advantage over his opponents
he is far stronger in his county than
either of his opponents are in theirs,
and in addition to that it may be added
with confidence that hei stronger in the
district. More than one-third of the
newspapers in the district are support.
ing Hilburn; nearly one-third are op.
posed to Clark, and not single one is
supporting Burr.

The "Houn' Song" is the latest Ii
gained national fame at ST. Louis re-
Gently when the Champ Clark delegates
assembled there on the way 10 Joplin 10
the state convention. The Clark sup
porterS began humming it around in Sc
leCt groups in the early morning. Before
night it had Swelled to a creScendo with
all the Clark forces joining in. By the
time the convention met everybody
knew it, and it was sung in convention.
1t was adopted as the Champ Clark cam.
paign song, and has been printed, words
and music, in the metropolitan papers,
and the Missouri papers are offering re-.
wards for the name of the author. Be.
fore long it is likely that the Governor
will offer reward for the apprehension
of the author. The song is now called
the Missouri classic, 1t is difficult at
this distance from ST. Louis to see what
particular bearing the sentiment OF the
song has upon the candidacy OF Mis-
souri's favorite son, but the sentiment is
grand. Here's the song:
Every time come TO town,
The boys keep a-kickin' my dog aroun.'
Makes no difference if he is houn,'
They gotta quit kickin' my dog aroun.'

We observe that some of our Florida
editors have jumped 10 the. conclusion
that because the majority of the com
mittee investigating the charge of brib-
cry and corrupt practices in the election
OF Isaac Stephenson as a member of the
senate of the United States from the
state OF Wisconsin reported in his favor
that the matter is settled. Such is not
the case. The finding of the minority
is 10 be considered along with the ma
iority in the open senate. The senate
has not yet taken vote, and there is
cause 10 believe that the senator will be
unseated. The finding of the minority
says:
1--WE regret that we cannot feel war
ranted in finding for the sitting MEM
Der, but we believe the methods en-
ployed at the primary were corrupt; that
they were against public policy; that
they were demoralizing in character;
that they directly contributed 10 destroy
the purify and freedom of the election;
that they violated the fundamental prin-
cipleS al the basis OF our system of gov
eminent; and that they are not 10 be toll
Grated by the Senate of the United
States as a means OF procuring seat in
that body.
I'VE desire 10 submit the following
resolution:
Resolved, That Isaac Stephenson
was not duly and legally elected to a
seat in the Senate of the United States
by the legislature of the state of Wis
ConSin."
Nor has the Lorimer case been con-
sidered by the senate. If Stephenson is
elected there is a strong likelihood that
Lorimer will be unseated also. Let US
hope so.
