Mr. Morrison } the state offices, but the board ex- pressly declared; in its opinion that it acted simply as a canvassing board, without power or authority, as it construed the law, toinquire into the legality or validity of any contested votes. The board expressed the opinion that if clothed with author’- ty to go behind the returns and de- termine the matters in contention, the certificates of election would not have been issued to the parties who received them. “We feel that in the light of the ac- tion of this board, the Democratic party can not do less than to 2 its contention to the tribunals ed by law for its determination. The grounds which contest is based consist of the protest against the use of the tissue ballots in many of the overwhelming republi- can counties of the state. The use of this ballot is not only in direct viola- tion of the of the law, but is in utter and open defiance of the spirit of the law and the use of these ballots furnishes not only prima facie but conclusive evidence of proposed fraud. ing its power in suchform as to them stall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.

Fourth—That we are opposed to the retention ofthe Philippine islands by the United Stz ; and that it is our purpose to consent to the inde- pendence of the Filipinos as soon as a stable gover: ment shall be estab- lished by them, and toward the prompt establishment of such gov- ernment we pledge our friendly as- sistance. the upon letter When the insular committee brings forth its recommendation the demo- cratic minority willmake a concerted effort to substitute Mr. DeArmond’s resolution.

Senator Vest is beginning to again exhibit his old time interest in affairs over in the senatewing. Thesenator looks incomparably better than he did last year. His appearance and walk even show an improvement of health since the opening of the ses- sion. But his cronies insist that the surest sign of returning health dis- played by Senator Vest is that he is again making the frequenters of the marble room roar with his iflashing wit and humor. Yesterday afternoon he kept Senators Berry and Clinton in constant laughter for nearly en hour by regaling them with a new stock of jokes. When Vest is sick he has no more humor than an Indian,” said an old friend who has been with him a good deal of late. “Now that he has re sumed his wonted custom of spinning yarns in that inimitable way of his I know that he is safe on the road to recovery.”” Trained Russians, French ,and German Military Men Going to the Transvaal. London, Dec. 21.—The best indica- tion of the feeling in favor of the boers which exists throughout Europe is shown in the fact that trained mil- itary men—French, Russians, Ger- mans and Hollanders—are pouring into the Transvaal by this route and will probably be heard from later at the front. Large supplies of ammunition are reaching the Boers by this route also. Several London newspapers are ask- ing the government to call the atten- tion of Portugal to this alleged breach of neutrality. It is known here that the Emperors of Germany and Russia are aware that many of the best officers of the grades of colonel, major and captains who have recently obtained long leaves of absence, have gone to help the Boers. The rulers have not put a straw in the way of these officers. A Keen Clear Brain.

Mo., Dee. 21.—In the absence of Governor Stephens, who is now on a visit to Boonville, Paul B. Moore, the governor's pri- vate secretary, stated to your corre- spondent, to-day: “The governor has been flooded with letters for the,past few months begging that he call an extra session of the legislature some time in Janu ary of the new year for the purpose of enacting a law providing for the taxation of franchises. It will be remembered that in his inaugural address and biennial mes- sage he strongly advocated the pas- sage of a measure of this sort, but the bills died either in the commit- tees to which they were referred or on the floor of the assembly. So thoroughly convinced was he that the good of the people demand- ed this kind of legislation, he, during the last days of the late general as- sembly sent in @ special message on the subject. but it seems that the lobby vas i: control and the session adjourned witout any action what- ever npon his suggestion.

Geod Qualities Which Put the Stamp of Excellence Upon This Article. There sre many reasons why you should use Merrow’s Kid-ne-oids in preference to any other kidney preparation. Inthe first plece, Ri¢-20-0ids are a scientific preparstion Second, they are in the form of tablets, not pills, which is the mest scientific form ef putting ap medicine; they do pet get herd and pare through the body whole, bat dissolve and take effect. Third, there sre never any bad effects from their use like there is from #0 per cent of other preparations. Fourth, most sil kidney preperations are filed up with something to act en the bowels. Morrow Kid-ne-cids do net act om the bowels because some people do pot need a cathartic, they simply need something to act on the kidneys, and when you take other kidney prepsrstions the bowels are moved per- haps severely when they should mot be dis- turbed. There sre many other reasons wily Kid-ne-oids should be used and these reasons you will find out by using them. Wegive you the evidence of A.M. Thisti-- wait, who resides ot 208 East Sixth street, and says: ‘‘My left kidney seemed to be the one diseased, as the dull heavy pain wae om th’ left side of my back, iow down.
