The fight for free silver is still op and in 1900 the battle will be fought over again ——— Mr Benton's majority over Judge Burton for congress iv the Fifteenth district is over 7,000 The vote of Wyoming is still in doubt. Bryan bas probably carried the state by a slim majority. Mr. Bryan has received an offer of fifty thousand dollars a year by a bureau to take the lecture fieid. Never in the political history of the county has a more competent eet of officials been elected. The Kansas City Star is pointed Missouri and Kaneas fail- ed to take its advice and go for Me- Kinley. All the roadway and equipments of the Santa Fe railroad in Kansas has been put in the hands of a re- ceiver. —— The greatest ambition of Mr. Fil- ley’s life will not be gratified. He wanted to pull down Missouri's Vest. Boss Kerens will preside over the federal pie counter in this state The McKinley administration will not recognize boss Filley. The “moss back” rule of Missouri has brought the state up to the fifth place in the union. No wonder the people do not desire a change. Mark Hanna gives out the infor mation that McKinley will call an extra session of congress after taking the reins of govornment. The Cincinnati Enquirer claims that seven million of dollars was spent in Ohio by Hanna during the two weeks before the election. Jefferson City can now lay back and draw a long breath of relief. Capital removal has been knucked out, and so effectually as to never be agitated again. The Pleasant Hill Gazette an. nounces as its favorites for president and vice president four years from now W. J Bryanand McLean. Pret- ty good ticket. “Mhe papers and politicians are now building Major McKinley's cab- inet. Mark Hanna is slated by the knowing ones for secretary of the Treasury. Bryan carried Kansas by a good round majority. The entire fusion populiste-democratic ticket is elect- ed and the state will senda good free silver man to the U.S senate to succeed Peffer. —_—_—— ‘No paper in the union did nobler and better work for Bryan and the cause off ree silver than the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The democrats of this state should not forget this great paper. In future they should atand by it royally. It is said Maj. Warner, of Kansas City will make disposition of federal patronage in the western district. Already several candidates have made application for the marshal- emp. It won't be long until demo- erate and boltocrats will begin to walk the plank.

Mr. Bliss is in the whole sale dry goods business, avd is inter- ested as a stockholder and director in severe! banks and trust companies —_————__—_—— John Sherman, in an interview says congress will be convened in extra session as soon as McKinley is ceated, and revision of the Wilson tariff bill will be considered. Sher man is of the opinion that higher tariff will bring prosperity to tke country and furnish sufficient reve nue for the needs of the government. The trusts are in the saddle. Some of the Wall street bankers since the election, come out frank and flat-footed against any proposi- tion looking to an _ international agreement on the money question. They claim there will be no proposi tion entertained in that direction by the republican administration. They say agitation of international agree- ment is Bryanism In the presidential glection in 1900 there will be no third party ticket. The silver forces will be united and the battle will be fought under one banner, aud by one leader. There will be no coutentions of the silver forces to settle or fusion complica tions in any of the states. The silver forces will unite in 1900 in one solid body and the power of the gold bugs and corporations will not prevail against the mighty hosts of common people, who will fill up the rauks and present a wall of stone and an invin- cible army. Hon. D. A. DeArmond should feel complimented by the handsome ma jority the sixth district gave him this time. Two years ago he only defeat ed Lewis by 92 votes, and this time he has 6,500. The people of the sixth district recognize Mr. De Armond’s ability as a representative, and do not care to turn him down for an untried man —-Montroge Dem- ecrat. The Democrat can assure its read ers tnat the judge not only feels com , plimented, but is highly gratified and grateful for the luyal voters and hearty support given his candidacy. The Tres will add, the trust im posed in the honesty and integrity of Judge DeArmond by those who supported him wil! not be betrayed or lost sight of. The Judge is more than grateful. THE DOORS ARE OPEN. The populists and democrats have bed many hard tussels inthis county in the past dozen years, and during that time many bitter things were said by both parties, but the sting has been taken out of all such by the manly and patriotic attitude of the great majority of populists in the campaign just closed. They showed they were more devoted to principles than men, and did not hesitate in their choice between the honest, capable, God fearing, silver advocate, Stephens, and that scoffer at religion and advocate of the gold standard, Lewis. And why should not democratic hearts soften to their populist brethren, are they not of the same political stock, and wander. ed away from the parent roof be- cause of the very principle which they now hasten to return to defend?

BRYAN REFUSED The Princely Uff-r of a Big Chicage Firm.—$825,000 a Year the Sum. Chicago. Ill, Nov. 6—In a dis patch to Siegel, Cooper and Co, W. J. Byran refuses to consider the firm’s offer to manage its legal de- partment at a salary of $25,000 a year. Bryan's answer reads: “During the next four years I ex- pect to devote as much time as pos sible to the advocacy of bimetallism. Therefore, I can not consider the proposition made by you. I appre- ciate the confidence which your offer implies “W. J. Bryan” Lacked Only 25,000 Votes, O’Brien Moore in St. Louis Republic. In Senator Butler's addzess, as chairman of the Populist National Committee, issued today, he makes the assertion that if 25,000 more sil- ver Republicans had voted for Bry an in certain States the Nebraska statesman would have been elected President. In view of the Republican talk about landslides, this assertion was ecnsidered rasb, but it is very near ly correct. Let us see. Look at this table, showing how a change of little more than 25,000 votes, dis tributed over nine States,would have elected Bryan: Electoral s Votes. Majorities. California . . ay 5,000 Delaware... . ...... Rue | 500 Indiana... ese LS 22,000 Kentucky... = oo AS 500 Worth Dakota.... : - ¢ 5,000 Oregon.... .... <1 3,000 Sonth Dakota. ... -4 390 West Virginia 6 12,000 Wroming........ 3 200 Total electoral Co ae Total McKinley Ww, 500 Now, suppose there had been these changes from McKinley to| Bryan: California. 2,010; Delaware, 1255; Indiana, 11,100; Kentucky, 251; North Dakota, 2,510; Oregon, 1,505; South Dakota, 151; West Virginia, 6,010; Wyoming, 101,—a total of 25,593. These changes would have given every one of these nine states to Bryan, and adding their votes to the 167 he got else | where, would have made his strength ‘in the electoral college 227, or three more than he needed to make him president. This, too, in view of the fact that} there is yeta probability of Bryan | i having carried Kentucky, South Dakoto and Wyoming. Not much jiandelide about that. (Adams...
