Senator Hill does not belong to the bolters. He is true to hia fa- mous declaration, “I am a democrat” Hurrah, for Hill! It is stated that the New York World, the greatest newspaper in the United States, will support Bry- an and Sewall. Webster Davis of Kansas City has been invited to speak at Chicago. Webster ought to take his wounded hat along und show the Chicagoians how near he came being assassinated in the wild and woolly west. —_—_—_——_—_—_— At the democratic congressional convention for the 15th district, held at Lamar, Mo., last Thursday, Hon. M. E. Benton, of Newton, was nomi- nated by acclamation. Judge Bur- ton, of Nevada, is his opponent. Watson C. Squire, republican gen- ator from the state of Washington, has declared for Bryan and free sil- ver. The declaration of Senator Squires was made at an immense gathering and the crowd went wild cheering. Do the American people intend to continue to allow England and Wall street to dictate the financial policy of this great government? If they do they will vote for McKinley. If they do not, then they will vote for Bryan. The matter will be set- tled at the ballot box in November. —_—_— Suppose the factory hands, rail-| road men and laborers generally were | to demand gold in payment for labor what would be the consequences?

Once every four years the manu- | facturers become very solicitious for their employees This year they have become so anxious in regard to their wellfare and ignorance, they have issued circular letters instruct ing their employees how to vote. The letter does not stop here, but carries with ita threat that their mills will close down if they do rot vote for McKinley. Col. W. P. C. Breckioridge, Kentucky, has bolted the democratic party and gone over to the gold standard. The Colonel lost his standing in the democratic party in that Pollard scrape. He also lost his social standing in Kentucky, and by the way, he bas never settled that $15,900 judgment. He ought to do this now while he can settle the bill in 50c dollars. Miss Pollard, no doubt, would be glad to close the account in silver at its present ratio The opening of the republican campaign for this state at Chilli- cothe, Mo., last week was a flat fail- ure, and boss Filley left the town in utter disguet at the slim attendance. A big teot had been stretched and the speech making and jollification was to last three days. The slim attendance put a damper on the pro ceedings, and Mr. Filley, candidate Lewis and other speakers pulled out the second day. So did the crowd and the bands, and the opening rally of the campaign was a diswal fail- ure. Bourke Cockran’s great New York speech made to an audience of bank ers, trust presidents and money lenders, in answer to Bryan's speech of acceptance,will not be distributed as campaign literature by the repub lican campaign committee. The speech was made to suit the bauk crowd he was talking to, bat it would not be politic to send out among the farmers and laboring) mea.
