Not only this, but the condition of his health and the demands of business were such that he believed his resignation was essentia: to party success. But whatever Chairman Maffitt’s ideas might have been, there was nota member of the committee who agreed with him. If he thought it necessary for him to resign, nine members of the committee declared that the party had no right to expect the sacritice of him, and were willing to accept it. But 21 others took the position that at this particular time party necessity must be para- mount, and that success would be jeopardized by a change in the com mittee’s organization. Three times the chairman of the committee in- sisted upon his resignation being ac- cepted, and it was each time declined in such emphatic fashion that it was useless to press the case further, and be remains the executive head of the stute democratic organization In the same manner the other mem- bers of the old committee organiza tion presented their resignatioas, which were uvanimously rejected, and no matter if it wasn’t a strictly parliamentary proceeding to elect men to occupy offices already filled, they were unanimously re-elected. When the morning session was adjourned everything was uncertain, so far as the committee chairmanship was concerned, and a committee of five, of which Sam Cook was chair- map, was appointed on permanent organization, and a second commit- tee, of which M E. Benton of Neo- sho, was chairman, was named to issue an address to the people. The organized committee never did come to an agreement, because each mem- ber thought Maffitt ought to remain. But the committee on address got down to business, and after the whole committee, in executive ses- sion, had discussed its report, a for- mal address was premulgated and signed by each member of the com- mittee present, which has a demo- cratic ring and outlines a common platform for thorough and complete democratic organization. The time when the state conven- tion shall be called will be a matter for subsequent consideration. The chairman was instructed to recon- vene the committee to determine the national committee had decided where and when the nationa! conven- tion was to be held.

We were paying a tax of 50 cents on the $100; a fraudulent bonded indebtedness of many willions had been fastened on many counties of the state. All this, while a large number of the people were denied the right of suffrage. During ita incumbency the democ- racy has reduced the state debt to one-fourth what it wasin 1872. We have more than doubled the school fund of the state, have seen the pop- ulation of Missouri increased more than a willion, and the taxable wealth of the state doubled. In the meantime the taxes have been reduc- ed to 25 cents on the $100, and every man kas been given a voice in the control of public affairs. This is the record made by the democracy of Missouri. In 1892 the republican for governor threw down the gaunt- let to the people of the state, when he declared that the most prosperous period in the state’s history was when radicalism controlled the state. His gage of battle was accepted, and the question was squarely presented tothe people: ‘‘Shall we return to the days of 1865 and 1870, or shall we stand on the record for 20 vears of candidate | AND __ NEW STYLE JACKETS | AT PRICES CHEAPER THAN EVER EVERYTHING OUR OWN MANUFACTURE AND -!- UNDER OUR OWN PERSONAL SUPERVISION -:- We Invite a Careful Inspection.
