LR. ALtes, Chairman, trausact such T. P. Crawrorp Sec'y. War has again broken out in Bra zil. The Kansas City Star. although independent in politics, is one ot the strongest Cleveland papers in the stite. The Star has a daily cireula- tion of fifty thousand papers, and its influence is felt not only in Kansas City but throughout the state. The Rich Hill Review comes out un- eyuivocally for Clinton as the p:op- er place for the location of the state university. Clinton is making a hard fight for the prize and as there is nothing improbable or impossible in this world, where the stroug arm of enterprise is attached, we look for something to drop in favor of Clinton when the question is brought up inthe legislature. The Sedalia Gazette, a republican paper, had much to say about the harmony that did not prevail at the meeting of the state republican league at that place. The effect of its advice nay be judged from the following headlines over the proceed ings which it published at length: “Hell, Not Harmony. The Dove of Peace had no Abiding Place at the League Meeting Yesterday. Faction- al Fighte. St. Joseph and St. Louis Brought their Dirty Linen to Seda- lia to Air. Hold Your Noses.” Gen. Rice, of Ft. Scott, father of the alliance party of Kansas, has re- turned to the republican party, his first love, and henceforth and forev- er the people's party will be spared his voluminous advice and contideu- tial letters. The way of a Kansas politician is anything for an office, and by the next election Jerry and Peffer will be in line with the repub- lican party. At the league conven- tion in Sedalia, one of the Kansas speakers said, the alliance of his state was now being run by crauks and fat women. Henry Watterson, editor of the Louisville-Courier Journa’, suggests that Senator Stanford form a sydi- eate with ether millionaires and loan money to the grangers at 2 per cent, as the millionaires are better able to loan the money than the tax-pay- ers. The above is a good sugges- tion, but Senator Stanford and the other millionaires don't exactly see it in that light. They talk fair and furnish theories, but Uncle Sam is asked to put them in practice. Then if the corn, oatsand wheat is sold at auction in the bins of the sub treasury, Stanford & Co., will be on hand to take in the snap at 50 cents on the dollar. Marion Hedgepeth, one of the Glendale train robbers was captur- ed in the postoffice at Sap Francisco the 11th inst. He was one of the most daring outlaws the country has ever produced, and when captured by the police he attempted to draw a revolver from each pocket of his overcoat but the officers were too guick for him and he was taken without blood shed. Jimmie Francis one of Hedgepeth’s partners in the robbery was shot to death 1 a box | ear at Pleasanton Kansas, a few weeks ago, and Adelbert Slye, an-| other of the gang was captued in} Towa sometime ago, and is now con-! fined in the St. Louis jail.

It will be no experiment and Col. Stepheus’ name will add strength to the ticket. There was vo such thing as ha: inony iu the republican lkague mect- ing at Sedalia Friday and Saturday. The convention was disorder from | beginning to finish, and riot reigned supreme. Club after club that nev er had existence was seated aud by this means o!d boss Filley, the bone} of contention was made master of the situation and the siik stocking crowd was routed with Texas spurs and cow bells. The admin ition | from Harrison to Pat Eagan was dorsed and a en-| negro was put in as! first vice-president of the league. The next meeting will be held at Sprivgteld with the in the The Sedalia Guzette, a re- sills soup. publicun paper, heads the proceed- ings of the convention: “Hell, not Harmony.” The extra session of the State leg- islature will convene at Jefferson City to-day. It is hoped that it will perform the duties for which it was called as expediciously as possible. It will be called upon to rearrange the congressional district ro as to make an additional one; to rearrange the judicial circuits, and make an ap- propriation for the rebuildiug of tha state University, at Columbia, or remove it to some othor point. This being a campaign year in both national and state politics the present session will have a special | interest to the politicians for this reason and they may be expected to full force from ail parts of the state. Many stutesu: will be made and uninade in the next few weeks. The political ambitions | be on hand in bavyed up, while others wi!l be sad- ly depressed. But it is to be hoped | that our ttatives and sena- tors will not become so engrossed in | repress political topies as to negieet the im- | portant duties fer which they sre couvened. Their work should be done promptly aud systematically and not b> put off until the last moment ard er deliberation. ————————— The state bar association hes agreed on a bill redistricting the ju-| dical cireuits and eutting them down from thirty to twenty, and increas- ing the salaries of the judges from} $2,000 to $3,500 per annum. This will be submitted to the legislature for its approval and adoption. In our eircuit, the 22rd,Bentou county is cut offand Cass is added.

Not that our lawyers or our people have any objections to being in the same district with Cass county, but they claim that Judge Lay, who is making an excellent cir- cuit Judge, is a citizen of Benton county, and they do not want to dis-/| pense with his valuable services. —————— Missouri will elect the following state officers this lieutenant governor, secretary of state, auditor, treasurer, attorney general, three judges of the supreme! court, judge of the Kansas City] court of appeals: also judge for St. year: Gorernor, is still at large but the officers are hot on his track and his capture is a | these a number of circuit judges will matter of only a few daye.
