Let democrats re- member. however, that those who have nlways stood in the breach and fought the battles of their party can usuviiy be trusted. Often the agita- tor who is making the loudest pro- testations of faithfulness tothe cause of the people, and who not content with constantly proclaiming in sten- torian tones his own virtues, is con- stuntly attacking the honesty of other men, is laughing in his sleeve and fingering the boodle which repre- sents the price of his own disloyalty. —Lamar Democrat.

Democrats have nothing to be dis- couraged at the election returns from the off year states voting on Tues- day. They carried Kentucky and Maryland, both being claimed by re- publicans and reduced the republican majority in Pennsylvania. In New York political lines were ignored and it was a Tammany and _anti-Tam- many fight. All the others were re- publican states. The unholy war upon Democratic stute officials, from 1871 to the pres- ent time, entrusted with the manage- ment of Missouri's finances, by Re- publican newspapers, was inaugurat- ed, strange to say, in the city of St. Louis, If the finances of St. Louis had been managed one hundredth part as well during the last thirty years, as have the finances of the state, it would not be necessary now, to assess city property, in many in- stances, above its real value, at a high tax rate, to procure sufficient vevenue with which to pay interest on its enormous bonded debt, which is about,twenty times as large asthe debt of the whole state, and to meet also the expenses on which to run an extravagant and reckless city gov- ernment and to pay all garbage re- duction demands. The state has now practically no bonded debt; its property is assessed at over a billion dollars, which is about a third of its real value, and its tax-rate is very low. Every citizen of Missouri is proud ofits financial record and pres- ent condition, excepting a few design- ing Republican politicians and news- paper space consumers,—Ex-Gov, Stephens in Sharps and Flats, Transport Warren Disabled at Sea. Manila, Nov. 5.—The United States transport Warren, owing to anac- cident in the inland sea, will be dock- ed at Nagasaki, Japan, where the United States transport Sheridan is being repaired. CONGRESSMEN MAY BE ON BOARD, — Washington, Nov. 5.—The War Department has no information con- cerning the accident. Shesailedfrom Nagasaki November 2, with the pas- sengers of the Sheridan, which had been disabled near Nagasaki, for San Franciseo, As the Sheridan had on board the congressional party which has been visiting the Philip- pine Islands, it is probable that the Senators and Congressmen who form the party embarked on board the Warren, and are, therefore, once more detained in Japan. The party originally consisted of Senators Bacon of Georgia and Dietrich of Nebraska and Representatives Mer- cer of. Nebraska, Smith of Ilinois, Burleson of Texas, DeArmond of Mis- Souri, Driscoll off New York, Gaines of Tennessee, Green of Pennsylvania and Weeks of Michigan. Senator Dietrich returned to the United States some time ago. More Fighting on Samar. Manila, Philippine Islands, Nov. 5. —Four native police officers were kill- ed and their horses captured yester- day at Baybay, Island of Leyte. Lieutenant Julien E. Caujot, with‘an attachment of scouts, met a body of insurgents southeast of Catbalogan, Samar Island, aud in the fight which followed twenty-five insurgents were killed. One hundred «and seventy-five houses were burned and 5,000 pounds of rice and 2,000 of palay were cap- tured. France Seizes on Mytilene Isle Turkish Ports.

It_is also_ announced that the French admiral has seized three ports on the island and will proceed to col- PECULIAR FRIENDSHIP. Lexington Intelligencer. History, in polities, as in other avocations of life, teaches that men are sometimes forced to pray for de- liverance from their friends, and in this state just at present we have be- fore us undeniable proof that history does not teach erroneously, especial- ly as appertains to politicians. Down in Bates, tg home county of the Hon. D, A. DeArmond, one of the nation’s deepest thinkers and most illustrious statesman and patriots— a man who is the pride of every Mis- sourian—conditions have arisen that seem to us, at least, unkind and un- patriotic—which conditions if pursu- ed to their logical conclusion must not only result in harm to the demo- cracy of the state but to Mr. DeAr- mond, individually. The Bates County Democrat, in its zealous'advocacy of Mr. DeArmond’s candidacy for the United States sen- ate—so far not officially announced by that gentleman, who is over on the Philippine islands somewhere in pursuit of knowledge to more thor- oughly perfect him in his labors as one of the leaders of the national democracy in the halls of congress— is heaping abuse upon another can- didate for this distinguished honor, the Hon. William J. Stone, who is as close to the affections of the people of Missouri, outside the corporations, as any other man in the state. With the Kansas City Star and other or- gans that are working with an eye single to his defeat the Democrat joinsin and slashes away at random, hoping to induce the people to believe that Mr. Stone is a traitor to the party. Following we reproduce one of many paragraphs which appeared in last week's issue of that paper, in addition to a lengthy editorial, all abusive of the distinguished ex. gev- ernor: “Ex-Goy, Stone goes back on plat- forms. He went back on the Kansas City platform when he announced his own personal platform the day he came out for senator Now, he is trying to go back on his own plat- form, but the people hold him to it.” Now we do not believe that thereis an impartial democrat in Missouri— one who has not an axe to grind— who will pay any serious attention to this cruel, truthless fling at the great state leader. Stone has been tried by the Missouri democracy and has measured. up to, yes, far above the standard, Like DeArmond he is one of the party’s most trusted fight- ers and never fails to don his armor and go forth to battle when the ene- my presents himself. Butit is unnecessary for the Intelli- gencer to engage in a lengthy, effu- “| sive defense of Gov. Stone and such is not the intention of this article, Under similar conditions we would defend DeArmond, Clark, or any oth- er democrat Our only purpose isto suggest that DeArmond is not being benefitted, nor the welfare of the democratic party furthered by reck- less assertion such as is made by the Bates County Democrat, the editor of which seems to labor under the opinion that he is strengthening the cause of his favorite. He seemingly forgets that “whom the gods would destroy they first make mad ” Thereis another newspaper at But- ler, however, that is friendly to Mr. DeArmond and will give himearnest, intelligent support should he enter the race for the senate, We refer to the Butler Times, from which we quote the appended excerpt from an editorial that appeared in last week’s issue: “Weare not wedded to Stone in his campaign for the senate. As our eople well know, the editor of THE Es has no cause to love Stone for anything done for him in the past, but we do believe in fair play. There are only two avowed candidates to date for the senate, Stone and Champ Clark. There may and probably will be other candidates in the field. We will wait and take our choice. If Judge DeArmond concludes to enter the race, alter he returns from the Philippines, then we are for him heart and soul, and will use all honorable efforts to secure his election. “We want to say to outsiders, who have heard only one side of thestory, that Governor Stone is not without friends in Bates county and with De- Armond out of the race it will have to be a mighty strong man that can beat him here.” $142,161 200 Eor Pensions.

Richmond, Va., Nov. 5.—Although in the election to-day the Democrats pelled only about 75 per cent of their vote, the result surpassed their most sanguine expectations. The negroes took little interest in the contest, and the indications are that the ma- jority for the state will be more than 25,000. The Democrats, on joint ballet in the Legislature, will be over- whelming.

The basis which the American eys- tem of protection has urged year af- ter was that, by means of it, indus- tries would be built up in this coun- try which in time would become so well established that. we should be able to manufacture goods and sell them to home purchasers atasfavor- able prices as those asked abroad for similar commodities. In quite a number of our industries the time has come when this hope should be realized, but to quite an extent it has been defeated by great combina- tions among home producers for the purpose of keeping up prices by pre- venting domestic competition, while the foreign consumers are supplied with American made goods at prices far below those exacted from Aweri- can consumers, If this is not ajusti- fication for ending the contributory partnership between the American people and the protected industries, |. then it would be hard to imagine any cause sufficient to justify such a rupture.—Boston Herald. Post-Dispatch Scores Victory. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch pro- duces the only electrety pe color work in the west, although many papers have colored covers such as may be printed on an ordinary printing press. An electrotyping plant is a heavy investment, but unless itscon- temporaries open their money bags, the Post-Dispatch will reap a harvest ofincreased circulation. The¢olored cover shows the effect of good work- manship and high-priced machinery.
