Iu 1880 Mr. Stone dissolved alaw part- nership, which bad existed for near ly ten years between Lim and Judge Charles R.

Hoss & King, and again eatered actively into the prac- tice of his profession. The firm en- jeys a very large practice, not ex- ceeded bp that of any other firm in southern Missouri.

Thousands of copies of the speech were scattered over Payton’s district and did much in bringing about his defeat in 1590. More than 60,000,000 acres of land, granted to corporations from 1862 to 1870, were restored io the people by acts of congress which Colonel Stone did more to pass than any otuer man in America Daring his service in congress Colonel Stone made a number of speeches that attracted wide atten- tion. His speech for free silver coinage was a masterful summary of the question and was applauded again and again in the house His speech against the force bill was printed in full in many of the met-, ropolitan papers throughout the Union, and in nearly every paper in the southern states. We have seen many letters written to Colonel tone by prominent men both nur and south,thanking him for making that speech. The people of this district were sorry to lose Colonel Stone as their representative,although succeded by in the state. But his old constituency will come to his support again and help him fight the battle of higher honors and a wider field of usefulness. They know if Stone shall be nominated we shall have a campaign such as Missouri has not known for years, ard, if elected governor, will give the state an administration that will His speech | Sex, Neosho Falls Post: difference: He: When a child the attending physician gets $10 and the editor a cussing, if he Lappens e is the is born to make a mistake ia the date or When a marriage is solemniz ed the minister gets $5 or $10; the the editor a nickel ov two perhaps for some extra eopies. provided the list of presents is priated When a death occurs the undertaker gets $190 and the editor a few more ‘nickles for some extra copies.
