Had the Republicans remain- ed in power they would have issued bonds and staved off the evil day. If a man can not increase his solvency by borrowing money, how can a government? The Republicans prac- ticed procrastination and put pay- day off. In the matter of tariff leg- islation they shifted the scale from sugar to manufactured articles, but always raised instead of lowered the duties and a seeming prosperity was the result. Pensions were enormous- ly increased and the treasury sur- plus paid out, but that was only tem- porary relief and now taxes must be levied to pay them.

Although Congessman Champ Clark of the Ninth District is known as a radical free silver man and in Congress voted against the Wilson bill, the Republica few days ago reported him as yoting for the Voor hees bill. “Tiis accidental blunder of re- portion ine as voting for it, when, as a mati-r of fact, I voted against the Voort:< es bill.” said Mr. Clark” has cause:i over 500 letters to be written to me from silver advocates in my , | distric: und from allover the State, asking for an explanation of my some:yault. Aside from my person al discomfort, it shows how general is the silver sentiment and to what anextent the people are aroused over the effort of the gold bugs to demenetize silver,” Chiefly Local Issues. The Globe Democrat is going out of its way to get some comfort for its position on national issues out of last Tuesday's elections. The elections of last Tuesday can not possibly be construed as any re- yersal of the verdict of the people last November. This the Globe- Democrat very well knows. It is an inevitable result for the party in power to meet with reverses at an election in au “off year.” This has b-en the history of every adminis- tration from the beginning of the government down. The discontent- ed masses charge up all their trou- bles to the party in power, besides there is always a floating population which is bound to vote “against the government,” all of which contrib- utes to unfavorable results for the | party in power in the elections held in an “off year.” People are supposed to vote intel- ligently, at Jeast those who have apy reason at all for their votes, anda man who is voting for an Alderman or a Mayor, or a local judge or Gov- ernor of a State knows very well that his vote in no ways affects, directly or remotely, the question of tariff re- form. or any other question of na- tional legislation. An intelligent vo- ter knows that when he casts a vote for a Congressman his vote has some significance with regard to national | questions. The only part of the country where a Congressman was elected was in the city of Detroit, and the Globe- Democrat's attention is called to the fact that a Democrat was returned from that city last Tuesday at the same time and by the same voters who elected a Republican Mayor for Detroit. This would seem to indicate that while the voters of Detroit. were. Re- publicans on local issues, that they did not wish to have it understood that their verdict in favor of tarift reform was tu be reversed or their opinions in the slightest degree lectorship, no objection is raised to|she charged tho State administration | this fact. the selection of the above genile-|with being corrupt.

Lead, ziue and iron ores are mined iu large quantities. Practically two thirds of all the zinc mived in the United States is produced in Missoun. The Central, Northern aud Western tions are underlaid with vast inhaustible beds of bituminous of fine quality. The State is a work of navigable streams and rods. The public debt is smull, about $6,600,000. The annual tax levied to support the State Govern- ment amounts to only 15 $100 valuation, and tbe valuation is low. Missouri bas the largest avail- able public school fund of any State in the Union, anduo State has a a finer or more complete system of schvols, public and private. Its educational, eleewosynary, and penal institutions are among the finest and best managed on the con- tinent. Misscuri is the leidi:ng State of the Southwest and iu respects the greatest State west of the Mus- sissippi. It is essentially a new State. Its population is composed of these who have come from every State in the Union aud from uearly every country in Europe. They are a wide awake, progressive, moral, bigh minded, hospitable people. No State can offer greater inducement to imuigrauts desiring pleasant homes, or to capital secking safe and profitable investment. Wittum J.

Heart Failure. HOW TO AVOID IT. The epitaph on many a tombstone is “heart failure.” No wonder, when we cott- sider the immense strain which is put on that smallorgan. Marvelous as it is, beating 100,000 times and exerting a force equal to 5,184,000 pounds daily, it has its limit—its endurance often is too severely tested. So common are diseases of the heart—though often for a considerable time without the suspicions of the afflicted person being in the least excited—that it is stated that one in four has a bad heart! Dr. Franklin Mfiles, of Elkhart, Ind., has for years made a special study of all diseases of the heart, and his remarkable success has made his name a familiar one in all parts of our land. the effect that President Cleveland 1s quite sick at Woodley.
