no Que seems 10 uouDt the result OF
the election in Missouri. Democrats
sleep 10 dangerous security, and place
their ma orty at from 10000 to $4,000.
The consequence is, they are not taking
that interest in the matter that becomes
tho part Of wisdom. A spirit Of too
great security may prove disadvantage
to them that they may have abundant
cause to regret. Already we bear the
opinion advanced that q full vote in this
county will not be registered. In other
counties the same idea is prevalent. We
fear there is too much truth in these
surmiscs, which are given rise to by the
fact that many Democrats feel so sure
that their county and state tickets will
carry, they think it no matter if they do
fail to register. One vote will not turn
the ecale one way or the other, they
reason, and hence let some trifing affair
prevent the important duty of register

mothers son Of them, and they will cast
their votes for Henderson and the rest
Of his gang. IF you van to see broad
smile fit aihvart their visace, just let a
Democrat tell them he doe.n intend to
register. BY this neglect small ray Of
hope creeps into their oenighted souls,
that probably enough may fail to give

a majority. And here we will suggest to
