War is now talked of between England and Russia. The Democratic state central com- mitte met in Kansas City yesterday. Congress will adjourn on or about May 18th. At least a resolu- tion to that effect has been adopted. Ex-governor Russell has declined the invitation of his state to become a candidate on the democratic ticket for president. Senator Vest denies the report sent out from Washington, that he to stump the state of Kentucky in the interest of 16 to 1 idea. It is a mistake to say the Popu- lists are in favor of single tax. They favor no taxes, no interest, no repay- ment of loans, and no government. And the country favors no Populists. —Kansas City Times. | | The rank and file of the demo- cratic party of Missouri is for free | silver.

Cockrell, Har ris, Crisp, DeArmond, the National Convention may take on the silver question. The asser tion of Tillman that the sound mon ey democrats will bolt, if the 16 to. lidea prevails is a base slander on the gentlemen composing that ele- ment of the party. There may bea few hot heads and Tillmanites among them, as there is in the silver rank, but the great form and candidate.

He is 19 a Jarge and pros- perous farmer of Prairie township and commands the respect and es- teem of his neighbors.

B. Ellis submits his name to | the demooratic yoters of Bates coun ty as candidate for representative. | He was born in Indiana and was ed-/| | ucated at the Commeccial College of | | Evansyille, and took a normal course ‘from that school. He came of dem- | ocratic stock and had his early train- | ing in polities under the leadership | lof that great statesman, Daniel | | Vorhees, “the tall sycamore of the | | Wabash.” fifteen years ago and located in Hud- i |son tow nsbip. The democrats | repeatedly elected bim to fill: town- ship offices and to his credit he always led his ticket, at one time be- ing elected trustee by forty majority, though it was a republican township at the time Several years ago he moved to Deep Water and at the last election he was elected assessor, having been nominated by the dem- ocrats without his knowledge To Mr. Ellis’ credit he stands the high- est where he is best known. One of the leading democrats of Hudson re- cently said, “No power on earth can beat George Ellis in my township.” He is a prominent farmer, a clever, sociable, educated gentleman, of good address and pleasing manners. On the money question he is in hearty accord with the great majori- ty of democrats of this county and state. If nominated and elected he would creditably represent Bates county in the state legislature. Webster Davis, the hifalutin ex- Mayor of Kansas City being out of a job, should imitate the great Li- Hung Chang, the eminent Viceroy of China, who is now on his way to Moscow to attend the coronation of the Czar, and who carries his coffin with bim to be used in case of emergency. The Chang was shot in the stomach afew months ago while visiting friends in Japan by some fellow in ambush. It is true the Kinsas City ex mayor wasn’t shot ia the stomach, buta great number of times he has been shot ia the neck aud only recently he was shot in the hat. Like the eminent Chinaman Davis should now buy a coftin and carry it around with him wherever he goes. If he goes to the Conyention at Springfield he should by all means take his coffin along. If he gets the nomination for Gov ernor we will see that he hasa de- cent burial in November.—Clinton Democrat FIRE JN CRIPPLE CREEK. Best Part ot the Famous Mining Town Goes Up in Smoke. Cripple Creek, Col., April 25.— The greater part of Cripple Oreek, the famous mining town, is in ashes. Fire broke out in the Central theater at 1:15 p. m to day and before sun down property valued at over a mil- lion dollars had been destroyed. All the theaters, dance halls and sport- ing resorts were burned: also the Midland railroad depot and trestles, the postoftice and the First National bank. The fire, which was fanned by a strong wind that made the efforts of the firemen futile, was finally check ed by blowing up a number of build- ings in the fiery track with dynamite. One million dollars is a conservative estimate of the damage done. Some estimates are as high as two mitlion dollars. The amount of insurance as can be arrived at will not exceed | $250,000. An angry woman threw a lamp at} her lover, and started the fire. lamp hit the stove, igniting the oil | and setting tire to the furniture. In a few minutes the building was in flames. This was Clough's dance hall, on Meyers avenue, near Third street. Ina very short time the ad- joining buildings had caught, de- | ment. It soon became evident that | the conilagration was to be a big one, but no one thought it would reach such an area. Henry County Primary. Clinton, Mo., April 25.—The Hen- ry county Democratic primary oc- , |curred to-day and an unusually large |vote was polled exceeding 3,500. | Some of the contests were very close | but the following were nominated: | Representative, W.H Cook, callect- or, Sol Blatt; State attorney J.

If in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, laxatives or other remedies are then not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, one should have the best, and with the l-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is most largely used and gives most general satisfaction. i is comfort i Democratic Vutlook Improying.
