The multi re manu- facturer and trust organizer and republican boss should be well qual- ifted to handle that subject to the entire satisfaction of Mr. MeKinlev and his managers.

A GOOD BEGINNING. There has never been in the politi- eal history of the state a stronger jor better ticket placed before the, people of Missouri by any political ‘party than that nominated at Kan- sas City last week by the democratic convention. It was unprecedented i ng the candidates for the leading offices of governor, attorney gen- in no - of state and acclamation. The contests he other places were spirited but \friendly and no sore spots were left | Bates county delegation made itself felt by casting its vote asa }unit on nearly every ballot. Its } sevente } the convention and their united and | harmonious action received commen- dation all The splendid ticket thus begun will be completed in the city the nation’s natal day. and with a Declaration of ndependence second only to that great Declaration of principles adopt- ed by that band of patriotsa century and a quarter ago, will win equally as great a victory for the masses of who are, and of right ought iin free and independent. —— The Warrensburg Standard Herald seers to take a strange delight in abusing the Hon. D. A. DeArmond on his record in congress, and seems to havea silly idea that it can fur- ther the interests of Sam Jurden by so doing. Allthe abuse the Stand- ard-Herald can heapon Mr. DeAr- moud will recoil head rather than help the Holden banker. The people of the sixth district seem to be satisfied with their on sides. same on to rer on its own perfectly representative in congress, or they certainly would have let him out be- As to his reeord, it is as open book. Mr. DeAr- mond has nothing to be ashamed of. He has upheld the principles of the party which elected him as gallantly td as courageously as any man could have done, and on the floor of the house his voiee has ever been raised in support and = defence of measures for the good of thecommon people. Perhaps the Standard-Her- ald isincensed because Mr. DeArmond will not stand quietly by and watch the steals, the scandals, the bribery and the rottonness and corruption fore this clear as an of the party in power without a word of protest. Mr. DeArmond is too honest a man and representative of his people to dothat. Nocharge can truthfully be brought against Mr. DeArmond’s reeor If the Standard Herald thinks to further Mr. Jurden’s interests it had better stop slinging mud at Mr. DeArmond at once, and go honestly and conseientiously to work and tell the people what possi- ble claim Mr. Jurden can have on the office, except asa pap dispenser for the republican party, and a lieuten- ant of Kerens in his rotten, dirty work in the Sixth district —Cass County Democrat. General H. C. Clark, as Brigadier General of the state troops, was in St. Louis the last of the week in con- sultation with Governor Stephens, Adjutant General Bell and Attorney- General Crow, relative to the advisa- bility of calling out the state troops to prevent rioting. There is a di- versity of opinion among the Goy- ernor’s advisors. Some think he should call out the militia, while others think St. Louis is fully able to cope with the situation with her offi- vers and peace commissioners. It is pretty well understood that unless the situation is much improved by the last of the week that the gover- nor will order out the troops, Refuse to Join Parade. Philadelphia, June, 7.—Because the Republican National Convention Hall is said to have been completed be nonunion iabor the forty-three organizations of the Allied Building Trades Council refused to accept an invitation to join the parade of the Allied Republican Clubs during convention week. The trade organiz- ations were asked to turn out twenty men in the parade A Bride at Ninety-Seven. Seneca Falls, N. Y., June 8.—Prob- ably the oldest bride in the United States is Mrs. Charlotte Brainerd of Tyre, who was married yesterday to Samuel Decker, aged 75. The bride is 97 vears of age. She has not been ten miles from home during the past 50 years. She has never seen a train of cars. She first met Decker at a kissing party 40 years ago. He then asked her to marry him, but she refused. She says she feels as “young as a cricket.” ~ Caught by Native Police. _ Manila, June 9.—The native police have captured the notorious rebel Pio dei Pilar at San Pedro, Mac- Pio del Pilar is Aguinaldo’s right- nd man and is generally credited ng more influence than of the Filipino leaders i the exception of Aguinaldo maelf.

GOLD DEMOCRATS WAIT. to See What Will = Do. New York, June 8.—George Foster Peabody, chairman of the gold Demo itic national committee, said: “Atour meeting last Friday reed that it would he for us tuntilaiter the Philadelph have Prefer Other Parties we wise and Kansas City conventions both been held before announcein what we intend to do this year. We will meet at Indianapolis three weeks after theholding of the Kansas City convention. But by that time tl declarations of both conventions will be made and we will have had time to form an opinion as to what to do. Of course the question of candidates has been settled and we have some idea of what to expect in the way of platforms from the Philadelphia and Kansas City conventions, but we will have to wait until we see actual declarations made by those plat- forms. “We want to see what the republi- canshave to say on what it is called imperialism, and then, again the Re- publican currency plank may not be satisfactory. The same reasons ap- ply to the convention to be held in Kansas City. It may be found that the delegates to that gathering will listen to reason and that theconserv- ative element is in control. Until we know the exact situation it would not be wise to commit ourselves to any policy. Ex-Necretary who is in town, was asked about a third ticket but he would not discuss the subject. He said he was too busy to bother with politics. Ex-Secretary J Nor- ton was in the city and he disavowed any interest in the possibility of the Olney, Hopeless The consequences of a diseased condi- tion of the stomach and digestive and the whole body. One by one every organ may become involved. The mis- ery is maddening. The most extreme cases of “stomach trouble” and the evils resulting from it have been cured by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It strengthens the stomach, purifies the blood and builds up the body with sound healthy flesh. “I was taken with severe headache,” writes Thomas A. Swarts, Box 103, Sub-Station C, Co lumbus, Ohio, then cramps in the stomach, and my food would not digest, then kidney and liver trouble, and my back got weak so I could scarcely get around. I just gave money to the doctors whenever I thought they would do me any good, but the more I doctored the worse I got until six years passed. I had become so poorly I could only walk in the house by the aid of chair, and I got sothin I had given up to die, thinking that I could not becured. Then I saw one of my neighbor boys and he said. "Take my advice and take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and make a new man out of yourself.” The first bottle helped me so I thought I would get another, and after I had taken eight bottles in about six weeks I was weighed and found I had gained twenty-seven (27) pounds. I have done more hard work in the past eleven months in two years before, and I am as stout y to-day, I think, as I ever was.” Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets cure biliousness. Boers Cut Roberts’ Line and Cause a Heavy Loss. In Wednesday's Fight Only Six Men Out of 500 Escaped.---Separating British Forces and Attacking Them in the Free State. Lond June 11.—Lieutenant Gen eral Sir Frederick Forestier-Walker, in command of the lines of communi- cation in South Africa, reports that in the disaster to the British troops Thursday at Roodeval, where the Boers cut Lord Roberts’ line of com munications, all members of the 4th battalion of the Derbyshire regiment were killed. wounded or made pris- oners, except six enlisted men. Two officers and fifteen men were killed and five ofticers and seventy-two men were wounded, many of them se- verel Tue Boers returned the wounded to the British. It is inferred that the Boers pt- urei more than 500 men and as late as yesterday held positions cutting off the British forces north of Kroon- stad from reinforcements. The news that the shutting off of Lord Roberts’ communication with the outer world, by tearing up sev- enteen miles of railway between toodeval and Heilbron was accom- panied by such a serious losscame as agreat surp In London, until the news came, it was thought that the destruction of the railroad was accomplished by Free Staters, who were avoidiug, rather than annihbi- lating, the British detachments sta- tioned at the point attacked. Nor are General Forestier-Walker’s vague Statements regarding Methuen and the situation at Heilbron looked upon as reassuring. The Boers ap- pear to be in sufficient strength to completely separate all tie British forces north and south of a line stretching some fifty miles between Roodeval and Heilbron. Methuen’s march upon the latter place seems somewhat in the nature of a move- ment for the relief of Colville. The only British officer left at Roodeval appears to be the doctor in charge of the hospital, which is full of wounded A Damaging Record. The New York Journal makes these timely suggestions: Here are a few of the things that voters will do well to make an espe- field.

Chetopa, Kan., June 7.—During a severe windstorm atan early hour this morning the village of Faulkner, seven miles northeast of here, was almost entirely demolished. The storm destroyed the school house, a church, North Brothers’ hay and storage barn and several buildings, burning and damaging many others. The buildings were seattered over the adjacent country. Several farm! houses in the country were unroofed | or blown from their foundations and much damage was done to crops. No casualties are reported. Wind Storm in the Territery.

Keene’s Bet on Bryan. New York, June 8.—Wall street heard to-day, on good authority that James KR. Keene, the horseman and Wall street operator, han bet $25,000 that William Jennings Bryan will be the next president of the United States. News of the bet reached Wall street shortly before noon and it was accepted asthe truth on all sides, because of Mr. Keene’s well-known belief in Bryan and the Democratic principles he espouses. Mr. Keene’s annual contributions to the Democratic national and state political machines mount into the hunreds of thousands. The rumor of the bet was verified through an intimate friend of the financier, who said: “Mr. Keeneisso confident that Bryan will be elected that he has bet $25,000 o0n the result of the election. The bet was made at odds of 7to 10. Mr. Keene told me that Bryan's election; in his opin- ion, was the only salvation of this country; and he believed he would be elected.” How To Gain Flesh Persons have been known to gain a pound a day by taking an ounce of SCOTT’S EMUL- SION.
