It has never been known to make a straight fight upon the official record of any democratic officer, but like the jackal snapping and snarling at the heels of the lion he dare not face in combat, that paper has, during its entire existence, en- gaged in slurs, insinuations and inuendoes. Such a fight is con- temptible,+ always, and has little influence with honest, thinking men. Judges Boswell and Sullens have , now served nearly two years on the bench, and we defy—aye,b eg, court, ghbo bring up one official act, a single al acts of Judges Sullens al ne to beseech our pir one, where the interests of the people are at stake, where these have failed to perform th duty to the best interests of the people of Bates county, and that fearlessly and without favor. No, it | 'eannot be done; but the editor of) | that paper will go on in the future as he has in the past, picking little | | flaws, too contemptible for an hon-! orable journalist to notice, and dish them out through his mud machine | ‘each week, as his conscience dictates: | jor when it suits the wishes and H | interests of certain democrats who, | it is well known, have dictated the | | policy of that paper for a number of | years. But there will come a day of | ‘reckoning when the sober sense of | ‘the people will demand cold facts and _records, then the Record will be as the fool who built his house on the sands. , FRANCIS SWEEPING THE STATE. The results of last Saturday's pri- | maries throughout the state. so far as reported, shows David R. Francis , to have captured a large majority of the counties over the anti-Francis | combine. The following which held their primari pmen r whole counties | t Satur- | | day will elect solid Francis delega- | | tions on next Saturday: Vernon, | i Cooper, Monroe, Shelby, Mississippi, | | Washington, Buchanan, (in which is | | located St. Joseph),Chariton, Macon, | Schuyler, Perry and Henry. More- house captured Livingston and Jef- jferson counties Glover will proba- | bly get Howell, and the two combined | | carried Barton. When it is econsid- | | ered that Buchanan is in Morehouse’s | congressional district, and went very | | largely for Francis, the handwriting | | on the wall is very significant. All | of the larger counties over the state, | jsuch as Jackson, Vernon, Henry, | Chariton, Monroe, etc., with the! | smaller counties he has already and | | will hereafter capture, added to a | vast majority of the St. Louis votes, |and the indications are that Fran- cis will receive the nomination governor on the first ballot. { | for —__ = | The poor old Kansas City Times! It looks as if retribution is overtak- ing it for its faithlessness and treach- ery to the Democratic party in the past. In spite of its bitter animos- lity to Judge Philips he receives | that recognition of his party. that as a true and honest democrat he is en- titled to and was appointed to an ex- alted judicial position. After the most unfair, bitter and vindictive }war ever waged by a respectable} journal upon a member of its own | party, Mayor Francis is endorsed | in the very strongholds of that pa- | per, and that too against all the jtrickery and chicanery that could! | be resorted to by unscrupulous and | | Scheming politicians. Mayor Fran-, | cis will probably be nominated and | | We prophesy that paper will give | | him the same kind of support it ac- | ,corded Judge Philips two years \ ago, but the results will be far less! |Satisfactory to its management. , This same K. C Times is making an ‘unseemly warfare upon George G. Vest, and we predict the result will prove as mortifying to them as_ has the phenomenal success of D. R. rancis. The Republican organs are com- plaining very bitterly that Jay Gould has deserted their party. but i it was his cheek for $50,000 th: feated Mr. Blaine. at de- Had Jay Gould kept his “barl” open however for Subscription. that I (he) cannot feel | the benefit of the republic vty it to be right to vote for anyone who and Mr. d, Jay would have been “all ot pronounced in favor of an | tating it. i: i THAT COMBINATION. The Tres made an effort to give the entire delegation of Bates county to Francis. Aregular campaign was begun and continued for that pur- pose. The friends of the other can- didates got together and agreed that | it would be prevented if possible, and ' also agreed that they would work for an equitable division between the | other candidates for governor. and | having won, propose to adhere hon- orably and strictly to that agreement. —Democrat. No man in the county, who took the trouble to investigate, doubted for an instant that there was a com- bination existing between the friends | i of Glover and Morehouse to accom- plish Mayor Francis’ defeat in the county, but no one supposed that the paper representing combine sould have the barefaced effrontery the to come out boldly and admit such that the votes of the farmer -en bartered and traded off be- | a trade; had be fore th now all that re honora- bly and strictly to that agreement.” We would like for the Democrat to explain who are the parties who made this dicker and how they pro- were secured, and | ains is to ‘adhere pose now to deliver the goods. We know there are honest and honora- ble gentlemen in the county for Mr. lover and for Mr. Morehouse, but it does not follow that the other are necessarily their second choice. This ¢rade was made in Butler by a yery few politicians, which means the ‘old ring” that conducted things with a high hand for so many years, and it so shamelessly abused the party for its own personal ends that he true democrats became thor- ough’ y disgusted and raised in their might sud freed the party of such p: es two years ago. Now how- s the leader expects to devote his sole time hereafter to resusci- » one is greatly surprised at this Great action of trading off the rights of either the Glover or the Moreiouse men for a second choice. Yes, you have made the trade. You don’t have to remind the people any more of that fact, now the next thing is to deliver the goods. Dan Voorhees, of Indiana, opened the campaign for the democratic party at Indianapolis, Saturday, to an immense audience of his fellow citizens. The truths set forth in this speech is the rock upon which the democratic party will go before the country. His review uf the past history of the republican party, and the falacy of the present war tariff which is bleeding the pockets of the farmer, laboring man and mechanic and his closing remarks on Harrison and Morton, if read by the toiling | masses, will carry conviction, and ; You will hear of thousands of men, 'who have heretofore been republi- | cans, deserting the party and climb- | ing on the old democratic ship for safety and protection against the {monopolists and barons who are | how, by virtue of republican misrule, | sapping the very life blood of the laboring classes of the country. The Trass never assailed Mr. Warnock, as the Democrat weli knows, for any political preference he might have entertained, but its editor had the manhood to refute the slanderous insinuations contained in Mr. Warnock’s communication to the Rich Hill Review. By the way, the editor of the Democrat was reflected on in that communication, just the same as the editor of the Trves. He has never made a denial of the charges. Were they true, or is Mr. Warnock’s political influence too valuable to your purpose just at this time to run ihe risk ofa rupture by a refutation? The Kansas City ‘Times has had many rebukes from its own party but the one so pointedly administer- ed in the case of Francis, will leave /an impression which will make its ' demoralization complete. The fact that in its own strong hold the Times has lost its influence tells a sad tale of mismanagement and party treach- ery. Arthur T. Lyman, of Boston, treasurer of the Hadley Companyand of the Lowell Manufacturing Com- pany, surprised the chairman of the Holyoke republican club by replying to an invitation for his usual liberal can honestly stand on the republican platform.” He approves particularly of the democratic position in regard to free wool. } i | A CONQUERER CONQUERED. Paihp Henry Sheridan. the General | of the Army. Dead. ' Nonquitt, Mass., Aug. 6.—General | Philip Sheridan died at 10:20 o'clock | last evening. Previous to the sudden pearance of heart failure, at about | 9:30, there had been no premouitions of any unfavorable changes in his condition. The weather has been | warter than usual, and the general was at times a little restless, but seemed bright and cheerful. His voice was strong; he took a full sup- ply of nourishment, slept occasion- ally, as usual, and the doctors and his family were in hopeful spirits. At 7 o'clock Mrs. Sheridan and the doctors went to the hotel for supper, and soon after their return the usual preparations for the night 1 were At about 9:20 Colonel Sher- idan said good night to his brother, and went to the hotel. there hav- ing been through the day no sign whatever of any unfavorable change ade. in his condition. At 9:30 symptoms of heart failure suddenly appeared and Drs. O'Reilly and Matthews, who were with him at the time, immediately applied the remedies which proved successful in his similar previous attacks. But this time they were without effect and despite all that could be done the general sank into a condition of complete unconsciousness and at 10:20 breathed his last. Mrs. Sher- idan, the sisters Maban and Justina, and the faithful body servant, Klein, were also at his bedside throughout his dying hour. THE BONDS ALL PLACED. The Kansas City and Sabine Pass an Assured Fact. The following is taken from the Kansas City Times. This road if built will pass through the western part of this county, touching the Walnut and Homer township coal fields: Mr. C. O. Hickock, financial agent of the Kansas City and Sabine Pass railroad company at New York, wir- ed The Times last night that the to- tal issue of bonds and interest had been placed and that the road would be built into Kansas City by Janua- ry 1. Captain William Anderson, the general manager is now on his way home from Europe where he has been looking after the company’s interest. He cables from Queens- town that everything is all right and that the work will commence at once. Adispatch from Lamar, Mo., stated that Mr. Austin Kerr, the secretary of the company, had just filed for record a mortgage from that com- pany to the Holland Trust Company of New York. Mr. Kerr will take the document to every county seat in the state through which the road passes. The contracts have already been let and the contractors are getting material and supplies out on the line ready to begin work as soon as Gen- eral Manager Anderson returns. Work will be begun at Pierce City, about 200 miles south of here, and will be pushed towards the city with all possible speed. The engineers claim that a splendid grade hasbeen found for the entire line and that there will be comparatively little heavy work at any point. The road will tap the rich coal, lead and zine mines of southwest Missouri and will pass through the heart of the heavy timber region. It will insure to the citizens of Kansas City cheap rates on coal and when completed will be the shertest pos- ble line to tide water: It will place Kansas City in a position to dictate the railroads.
