The extra session ought to trans- act the business for which it is call. ed in two weeks and adjourn. _ The money consideration in the settlement of the war between Japan and China is to be paid in silver by China. The statesmen are filing their ap- plications for the position held in the treasury department by the late Col. Mansur. The fight for free siver bas broken out in Kentucky and Senator Black- burn has sent forth a challenge put- ting himself on record as to his standing on the money question Read his interview in this issue, it is a scorcher. The Missouri legislature met in extra session Tuesday, in pursuance of a call by the goyernor, to wrestle with the election and fellow servants bills. The Tis will keep its read- ers posted on all important acts, if any are passed. Senator J. N. Ballard was in But- ler Friday and favored us pleasantly. The senator expressed himself as being strongly in favor of the free coinage of silver, but was uncertain as to the ratio necessary to retain a parity between the two metals. The Senator had grave doubts about the extra session of the legislature being able to agree on a satisfactory election bill or fellow servants bill. Senator Ballard has strong views on all public questions and has the courage of his convictions. —_——_—__—- Hon. Sam. Davis, chairman of the democratic central committee of Saline county has called a mass con- vention of the party te meet in Mar shall, April 29th, to discuss the sil- ver question. This ie a starter and you can look for other counties in Missouri to follow suit soon. If the issue is to be made on the silver question in 1896, then it is well to know just where we stand, and the sooner the better for party organi- | zation, which is essential to success. | The democratic party in Bates county ie getting in excellent shape | for the campaign of 1896. This is shown in the recent vote for county school commissioner and the town- ship elections held in the county. | The evidence is strong that hun- dreds of democrats, who went off with the populist movement, are re- turning to the party ef their first choice. We hope to see the exodus continue and in 1896 an old time majority of 1,000 rolled up for the state and county tickets. Get together, to be passed. Shght Difference of Opinion. The Post Dispatch, of St. Louis, obtained the views of the prowinent men all over the state on the ques tion of calling a democratic state | convention this year to adopt a poli- cy on the financial question. It’s published replies show a division of opinion, and each one firmly estab lished 1n his conviction. We publish the following views of Congressman DeArmond and Major H. W. Salmon, State committeeman, both residing in the same congressional district. Hon. D. A. DeArmond:—*It would be well for the democracy of Miesduri to meet in convention some time next summer to declare, clearly and authoritively, its sentiments concerning the silver and other im- portant questions, and do whatever else may be thought best for a thor- ough organization of the party in the state to insure the triumph of the democratic principles in 1896.” Major H. W. Salmon: “In my judgement the calling of sucha con- vention by the democratic state com mittee eighteen months in advance ofa general election would be a dangerous, if not an unwarranted exercise of power. The state com mittee ought not be clothed with authority to call the party’s repre- sertatives together in convention ex cept for reasons good and sufficient. To admit that the state committee may calla convention for the pur pose of ascertaining the sentiment of the party as to the question of the “free aud unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1” is to admit that it may call a convention on any and every pretext. This would be “bossism” pure and simple, and Iam not in favor of such a convention because it is unnecessary, inexpedi- ent and out of the usual course. I am unable to see how our coming together in convention and empha- sizing the fact that we are not alto- gether agreed as to the silver ques- tion will be a benefit to the purty. Let us stick to the beaten paths and cross these bridges when we come to them.” Sponsor tor Missourt. Clinton, Mo, Apri! 18.—-General Joe O.

Atlanta, Ga., September 3, 1889. To the Ex-Soldiers and Sailors of the Confederate States of America: | The convention of delegates from the different states which assembled in New Orleans, June 10, 1889, ef- fected a general organization known as the “United Confederate Veter ans.” It is designed as an associa tion of all the bodies of ex Confeder ate Veterans and Sailors throughout the Union. The convention adopt- ed a constitution and did me the great honor to elect me General, which position I accept with peculiar gratification. Preliminary to the issue of any orders I wish to call general attention to the OBJECTS OF THIS ASSOCIATION, and to enlist in their accomplishment the active co operation not only of every survivor of Southern armies, but x«!so that large contingent of sons of veterans, who, too young to have received the baptism of tire, have nevertheless received with you the baptism of suffering and of sacrifice. The first article of the constitution of the association declares: “The object and purpose of this organiza- tion will be strictly social, literary historical acd benevolent. It will endeavor to unite in a general federa- tion all associations of the Confeder- ate veterans, soldiers and sailors now in existence or hereafter to be form. ed; to gather authentic data for an impartial history of the war between the states; to preserve the relics or mementoes of the same; to cherish} the ties of friendship that should exist among the men who have shared common dangers, common suffering and privations; to care for the disabled and extend a helping hand to the needy; to protect the widow and orphan and to make and preserve the record of the services of every member, and as far as pos sible, of those of our comrades who have preceded us in eternity.” The last article provides that neither discussion of political or re- ligious subjects nor any political ac tion shall be permitted in the organ- ization and an association violating that provision shall forfeit its mem bership., 2 See GENERAL ORGANIZATION I rejoice that a general organiza tion too long neglected has been at last perfected. It is a brotherhood which all honorable men must ap- prove and which Heaven itself will} bless. I call upon you therefore to organize in every state and communi ty where ex Confederates may reside and to the support of the high and peaceful objects of the “United| Confederate Veterans,” and move! forward until by the power of or | ganization and persistent effort your | beneficent and Christian purposes! are fully accomplished. | J.

May we not count on you to be present on that occasion, and ask that you inform all other comrades. Signed: D.C. Mize, J. H. Sisson, N. B. Jeter, B F. Roseman, Oscar Reeder, R. S Catron, C. R.

Nevada, Mo, April 18.—Jacob Faith, who is authority on fruit in this section, says there was never a better prospect for an abundant yield of cherries, plums, pears and apples than now Small fruits will run from 65 to 75 per cent of a fu!l crop. There will be a full strawberry crop. Cold, damp weather is the thiug to be feared. He has less fear of the ravages of insects than he has had for several years past. Peaches are not so promising. The crop will be about 33 per cent in this and Cedar county. Mr. Faith has fifty-two varieties of strawberries, thirty-two of black- berries, five of raspberries, twenty of plums and sixty two of apple trees now in bloom. The apple crop will be so abundant that to secure full development the fruit will have to be thinned out before maturity. Glick Talks of Silyers. Excelsior Springs, Mo., April 18.— The only Democratic Governor Kansas ever elected, ex Governor G. W Glick, is registered at the Elms. He came, he says, for a rest and not to talk of politics, either of Kansas or of the nation. However, he said: “Kansas is iu the free coinage of silver columu Fully 85 per cent of the members of the Democratic party held to that positition, and I think that a large majority of the Republicavs are firmly of the same opinion If Governor Morrill is a gold metal man, asI am informed he is, he can not secure a renomina tion for Governor, if ke should desire jit.” Touching the national campaign of 1896, Mr. Glick said: ~+Harrison or Allison appear to me to be in the greatest favor with the Republican party at this time. They are safe and conservative men who can readi ly adjust themselves to the demands < Brings comfort and improvement and tends to rsonal enjoyment when rightly cae The many, who live bet- ter than others and enjoy life more, with less expenditure, by more promptly adapting the world’s best products to the is of phyeeal being, will attest the value to health of the pure liquid laxative principles embraced in the remedy, Syrup of Figs.
