Washington correspondent to Repu Why is it that Democrats and Re- publicans are so different? Way is it that a Republican can do without being seriously criticised by his fel- that damn a Democrat? Republicans and e people, they are lows which would eternally Democrats are of the s they are of the same race; neighbors and friends, oftentimes kindred. They are reared in the same atmosphere. In private busi- neas they are generally guided by the same purposes and inspired by the same motives. Yet in the con- duct of public affairs they are radi- eally different. Take, for instance, the case of the Hon. Charles N. Clark of Hannibal, Mo. Mr. Clark, as a member of the River and Harbor Committee of the House of Representatives, undoubt- edly neglected the interests of his State in order, it is but fair to as- sume, that he might benefit himself individually. Mr. Clark is the owner of a body of land in the State of Illi nois that he reclaimed from the Mississippi River. Aca member of the Committee on Rivers and Har- bors he succeeded in obtaining an appropriation of $50,000 for the protection of his own lands from overflow. Although these extracts have been printed before in The Republic it will help adorn a tale to print them again. In the sketch of his career, prepared by himself for the Con- gressional Directory, Mr. Clark ob- serves: “In 1870 became interested in the Mississippi River bottom lands in Illinois, opposite the city of Hanni- bal, and immediately began the work of their reclamation. Procuring the necessary legislation of the Illinois Legislature he began active work of erecting the Sny Island levee in 1872, and completed it in 1874, re- claiming over 100,000 acres of land from overflow by the river; and has been engaged in farming these lands since the above date.” In the River and Harbor bill, as reported from the Committee of which Mr. Clark is a member, and subsequently passed by the House under gag rules, and with only 40 minutes for debate and no opportu- nity to present amendments, was this provision: “For protection from erogion of the east bank of the Mississippi Riv- er along and in front of the Sny Is- land leyee in the counties of Adams, Pike and Calhoun, in the State of Illinois, by revetment work $50,000.” It is but fair to say, perhaps, that Mr. Clark considered himself partic- ularly honest and guilty of no im propriety whatsoever in securing this appropriation from Congress for his own personal benefit. We ean at least concede this much to him. That the Republicans of the Firat Missouri Congressional Dis. trict did not think Mr. Clark guilty of any irregularity is evidenced by their unanimous renomination of him after his action as a member of the Rivers and Harbors Committee was made known. What would the Dem- ocrats of Missouri do under sub- stantially similar circumstances and conditions? I have no doubt that the Missouri Democrat who would make the record for himself that Mr. Clark has made would be instant- ly driven from public life in disgrace. Why can Republicans do with im. | punity what would disgrace Demo- crate for all time’ Sometimes the most careful women are the most careless. Many a woman bundles herself up, to pasel out sickness—when she is neglecting the very worst sickness that can come to a woman.

Over thirty years ago, the need for a reliable remedy for! socalled “female complaints” was recognized by Dr. R. V.

The purpose of the proposed con- ference is to select committees to go into other States, East, West, North and South, as Bland missionaries, and to raise money necessary to pay their expenses. As all the world knows, Mr. Bland hasn't a cent out- side of the small farm on which he lives, and if his friends do not con- tribute the money for the vigorous campaign which it is desired to make for him, then the movement will have to be left to its own natur- al momentum. So plain and old fashioned a statesman is Mr. Bland that it is considered extremely doubtful that he would use a dollar to boom him- self, even if he had it to spare. Bank Robbed of Silver. St. Joseph, Mo., April 15.—The Farmers’ Bank at Maitland was rob- bed last night by three masked men who blew the safe open and secured $1,000 in silver. The robbers stole a team and wagon and hauled the silver away. The robbers arrived at the bank at 11 o'clock last night and made a prisoner of Fred Collison,who rooms in the building. The robbers bound, gagged him and carried him down to the banking room, which they en- tered through a rear door. They worked for more than an hour on the safe, but did not succeed in reach- ing the large sum of money inside The silver had been left in the outer part of the safe, and the steel chest resisted their efforts. The sil- ver was loaded in a wagon stolen from Edward Pinkston. James E. Weller, cashier of the bank, came to St. Joseph today on the track of the robbers. He has evidence that they belong here and are the same men who looted the bank at Savannah a few weeks ago “I have never had a day’s sickness in my life,” said a middleman the other day. “What a comfort it would be,” sighs some poor invalid, “to be in his place fora year or two.” Yet half of the invalids we see might be just as healthy as he, if they would only take proper care of themselves, eat proper food—and digest it. It’s so strange that such simple things are overlooked by those who want health. Food makes heatth. It makes strength—and strength wards off sickness. The man who had never been eick was strong be cause he always digested his food, and you could become the same by helping your stomach to work as well as his. It will make you strong and healthy by making the food you eat make you fat Druggists sell it cents. Trial bottle 10 Three Weeks a Floater. Burlington Junction, Mo., April 15.—The body of Charles E.

De- Armond of his selection as one of the delegates from this county to the Sedalia convention, to be held next Wednesday, for the purpose of selecting delegates to the national nominating convention. In response &@ message was received this morning in which Mr. DeArmond stated it as his wish that an alternate go to Se- dalia in his place, as he deemed it his duty to remain in Washington. This 1s perfectly characteristic of Mr. DeArmond. He is one of a few public officials who will not neglect his duty to his constitueats for per- sonal preferment or a trivial political honor, and for this he is to be all the more highly commended—no wish to eee him at Sedalia.
