But somebody in the Let us review briefly the seven | convention, thinking to make a po questions which must be answered in the affirmative of us are eligible to membership 1 “Are you in favor the perpetui ty of our union?” A. to see how many litical point against Mr. Crisp and his party, asked him if he had voted | for the repeal of the sugartax. Mr. Crisp replied that he had not voted Yes, we are | for it and added: “Coupled with the | plead guilty but this statement : coh- | gress yesterday, Mr. Crisp of Geor-| J. D.

No, not at the expense of the laboring classes of the nation on whose shoul- ders the burden of taxation falle the heaviest. 4. “Are you in favor of fair and equitable reciprocity between all na tions on the American continent?” A. Yes, provided the same favors are extended to all nations of the globe. 5. “Are you in favor of fair and equitable reciprocity between all in terests in our nation?” A. Yes,that is just what the democratic party has been battling for for years and what the people of the west and south are determined to have, but what is far from being received under re- publican administration of national affairs. This question 1s directly at variance with No. 3. 6. “Are you in favor of an intelli- gent ballot, honestly cast and count- ed?” A. Yes, and decidedly op possed to the blocks-of-five system by which Indiana was carried and the last republican president elected. Decidedly opposed to the force bill which a republican house and senate, egged on by a republican president. attempted to force upon the people in order that a section of the coun try might be carried by the republi- cans. 7. “Are you in favor of disfrachis- ing every citizen who offer or accept a bribe to influence a ballot?” A. We are, and are in favor of indicting Dudley, Quay and all others who were guilty of corrupting the voters at the last presidential election. Are these answers satisfactory,and will we be permitted to become a “Knight of Reciprocity” under them? There should have been an 8th question added but which may be brought in later as an amendment to the original, as follows: “Are you in favor of nominating James G. Blaine, the father of reciprocity, as republican candidate for president in 1892?" OHANGE OF (OUNCIL. Last Thursday evening was the last meeting of the old council and after the reutine of business had been transacted, Mayor Pace arose and in a neat an appropriate speech ‘complimented the aldermen upon the excellent manner 1n which they had performed the duties of their of- fice during the year and thanked them for the courtesies extended him as mayor, Aldermen Legg, Boyd, McKissick, Arnold and Smith made appropriate talks. After which the aldermen elect, Mesers Colyer, Pierce, Badgley, Hagedorn and Har- per took the oath of office and were duly installed as aldermen of the city | | . Rev. HH. rall, D.

He would also have said that the repeal of the sugar tax was purely a political move one the part of the republican major- ity in congress, suggested primarily for the purpose of reducing the gov ernment revenue and thus retaining tariff taxes of a more burdensome character, and incidentally because suck protection as the sugar tax af- forded was extended mainly to the people of a southern state. The first aim of the McKinley bill was to re- tain or increase the duties on such articles of foreign production and manufacture as would shut out im- portations and enable the home pro ducers aud manufacturers to add the amount of the duty—say 47 per cent—to the prices they could fix to their own commodities, and thus compel the masses to pay the exor- bitant prices The repeal of the sugar tax was a subterfuge designed to deceive the people and to provide an excuse for imposing more op- pressive taxes which yield rich boun- ties to the monopolists aud swell the “campaign funds” for the national eleetions. David A. DeArmond, congress- man from the twelfth Missouri dis- trict, is one of the numerous daele- gates who have taught school and worked on a farm. He is now alaw- yer and one of the best in southwest Missouri. He is a Pennsylvanian by birth and education and began the practice of law in the Keystone state. After the war he came to Missouri and was soon in the front rank of the bar of the state. He practiced law until 1873, when he was elected to the state senate. Al- though a democrat. he was indorsed and supported by the Greenback party in the counties of Dade, Dal- las and Hickory. In 1885 he remov- ed to Bates county, settling at But- ler, where he has since lived. On the resignation of Judge Phillips as a member of the supreme court com- mission in December, 1584, Judge DeArmond was appointed to suc- ceed him. He was the special coun- sel for the state in the celebrated Hannibal & St. Joseph railroad liti- gation. He was elected judge of the twenty-second judicial circuit in 1886.
