They | were all discussing Missouri politics | and Stone’s chances of getting the nomination. Toarman they were his partisans. They testified to his ability, his integrity, his steadfast | adherence to every duty that devel. oped upou him. I[t was the unapi mous comment of the party that if the democrats nominated Mr. Stone he would be a candidate worthy of the party and if elected, as he would | be, would make one of the best gov- | ernors the state ever had. Ex-Congressman Frank of Missou- ri, a republican, as all Missourians | know, came into the cloak room while the discussion was going on and he, too, was of the opinion that Stone. if nominated, would make a strong candidate and a Ddrilliang | cauvass, and, if elected, would make a splendid executive officer that every citizen of the State of whatever party may well be proud. | Mr. Frank expressed the opinion, too | that Stone's chances of receiying the nomination were excellent and the Democrats present authorized your correspondent to say that if Stone | was nomivated he could call upon) each and all of them to go to Missou- | ri and take the stump for him. | ' safety with which ladie: When Baby was sick, we gave When she was a Child, she became ¥ Morrison.

Feb. 12.—Jacob Ganziger, a large wheat dealer of San Francisco, Berlin, now here says that Baren Hirsch recently discovered that his agents in New York were not prop erly managing the fund of $10,000 per month devoted to Jewish im | migrants arriving in New York.

Every man who be- lieves in lighter taxes, diminished | expenditures, the equality of all men aud classes before the law; justice | toalland exclusive privilege to none should become a member of the ‘democratic club in his neighbor- | hood.” | “The institution of a uniform sys- ‘tem of clubs in all the political sub- | divisions of the state where the citi ' zens of each locality can meet andi openly discuss their rights and in- | terests will afford opportunities fox the dissemination of information on current pclitical issues not obtained in any other way and will exert a tremendous influence in general and; ate elections, Toe most significant feature of the movement is the desire of the people generally for such organiza- tion.
