New Jersey democrats are solid for Cleveland for president. —_—_——————— A large delegation of prominent politicians from Kaneas City and St. Louis are in Washington City try- ing to secure the National democrat- ic convention at Kansas City We will do Mr. Hill the credit to say that if he were elected, as Tilden in “76, dent. lenfrom him. This is contingency that Bro. Austin was he would be No fear of the office being sto the possible feurs. To-morrow the democratic nation a! committee will meet in Washing- ington City and name the date and place of holding the next democrat- ic convention. The Traes hopes to see Kansas City win the prize. Washington, Jan. 16.-The rivers are about the danger line. At Park- ersburg, 1.5 feet aud rising;at Chat tanooga, 4.1 feet and rising. The Alabama at Montgomery is 59 feet u the gauge, wich is 8 of a foot above the highest water ever known and still rising The Chilian controversy has as sumed a very sauguinary hue and it looks very much like the United States is to have a little our South American neighbor. — It is expected that the president wi send a special message to congress brush with | to day on the Chilian matter and the unpression prevails that he will ree- ommend a rigorous policy with that belligerent little nation. —_—_—_—— It requires considerable gall ot Editor Austiv, postmaster by virtue of arepublican administration, to talk of Hill or any other democrat stealing the presidency, after that little drama in 1876, wherein 8 re- publican supreme judges stultitied themselves and disgraced the oftice they held stealing the presidency of the United States —_—_—_— The Kansas City Times says the loss of the state university is a re- proach to the city of Columbia. The people voted bonds for waterworks and obstructionists got out injunc- tion proceedings and this is still pending in the courts. If Columbia had had water the loss to the state would not have been sus tained. If Columbia, with all her wealth, does not appreciate tae ben- efits derived from having the state university within her limits, move it to some point where enterprise marks the chareter of the tants. works inhabi- _—_—_————_— The Jaw barring ex-confederates from appointments im the army or navy ought to be repealed and this action should not be dependent at all on the outcome of the Chillian controversy.

If this law ates from holding appointments in the army and navy, is not repealed and a war with Chili should be the outcome of the present controversy we would like to know what Uncle Sam will do for soldiers, taking the pension list as a basis for able- bodied men. barring ex-confeder W. ©. Atkeson, the accidental prosecuting attorney of Bates coun- ty is using the columns of the Union to draw our fire from the main is- she in controversy. We know Mr. Atkeson’s polilitical history from the:rag baby to the people's party and care nothing about discussing bis many issues. He also knows our | against the resolution that no mon- letter to Governor polities and the platform on which we stand. The question for discus- sion is this: Has Mr. Atkeson made Bates county a prosecuting attorney or is he a failure? We say, so far, he has been a total failure, and instead of writing heavy editorials for the Union iu defense of the union labor- peoples’ party cause, he could spend his time (which belongs to the peo- ple) more profitably in reading crim- inal law. This is the issue Mr. At- keson. PARTY IS8UES. W. O.
