A. M. Dockery. Harison has already been repudi- ated by two Republican papers of his state. The Indiana Post, (Ger- man) and the Evansviill Daily Bull- etin. They predict he will be beat- en in Indina by 10,090 votes. The Journal, the leading republi- can paper in Providence Rhode Island, has bolted the republican ticket. It could not stand the plat- form, of free whisky and tobacco, sand war taxes on necessaries.

The Democrat suggests that the townships next Saturday instruct their delegates to the Judicial con- vention for both Judges DeArmond and Parkinson. This, it seems to us, would be a suicidal course for both of these gentlemen. Bates county cannot hope to secure both of these nomi- nations. Other portions of the state, with equal claims upon the party, will see that she does not. _be the best man in the race for this office, and he has a perfect right to conduct Mr. Glover's campaign in this county, provided he does not neglect his duties as an official, the public and paid servant of the peo- — running over the country in a hot political campaign.

We make this statement for infor- mation, not in behalf of a candidate for Governor, but in simple justice to the Mayor of St. Louis.—St. Louis Republic. The Journal and Mr. Francis. The Saline county Democrat, Mex- ico Intelligencer, Fulton Telegraph and other political papers have taken us to task, in language more forcible than elegant, and with an ardor more characteristic of assurance than discretion, for what they sever- ally are pleased to call our endorse- ment of the candidacy of Mr. Fran- cis, and the resultant inconsistent position which this endorsement makes us occupy when our utter- ances on option dealing in grain are considered. Our utterances the subject are about as irrelevant to Mr. Francis’ candidacy as anything can well be. We recommended that the democratic farmers of this state support Mr. Francis, because, from their standpoint and from their in- terests, he was the best man for them to support of all those who are in the race for this nomination; and we assigned positive reasons, not negative ones, why. And for these positive reasons, whether or not Mr. Francis is a grain gambler, a bull, or a bear, one or both, or all combined, are immaterial questions, he would still remain the best man for the ag- ricultural interest to support. The positive reasons why are that the railroad influence is against him; the corporate influence is against him; those who are politicians “for revyenne only” are against him; the boodlers, the trusts, and every ele- ment andfinfluence which have cor- rupted and degraded our poiitical system are against him; the influence which rendered an extra session of the last legislature a necessity, is hostile to him, and the influences which have made the work of that extra session nugatory are against him, and last but not least, the in- fluences that attempted to defeat Gov. Marmaduke, are against him. If all these elements are hostile to him, dread and fear him, these make reasons enough why the farmers should support him, without any reference to the question whether he buysand sells products “on futures.” We are not disposed to be drawn into this contest. All that we have said concerning this matter was said in answer to letters written to us by the farmers of this state. We an- swered, as it was our duty and pleas- ure to do, and advised the farmers to tender Mr. Francis their support for the reasons given above. We have nothing to unsay; no apologies to offer for anything we have said, and while our mission is to publish an agricultural newspaper. we have very decided convictions on a great | Many questions and can, under prop- | er circumstances, express them.
