Aspeakerat the meeting of the republican editors in St. Joseph last week expressed the sentiment that if every country editor would follow the lead of the Globe-Demoecrat each week, that it would not be long be- fore Misseuri would be republican. Which, in plain English, means that republican editors must divest them- selves of all self-respect: and decency, in order that they may be prepared to falsify, distort’: and misrepresent every act, and misquote and iuter- pret falsely every sentence of demo- cratic officials. They must ignore explanations, disregard proofs of “their own perfidy and go right on ‘making the most baseless atid: slan- derous charges, against honest and }eompetent public otticialk, = Why! | should they care if the reputation of | these incorruptible men are blacken- ed and their lives ruined so that the | objects for whieh they strive, the | securing of the spoils of oftiee, is ate! tained.

Many of the antiStone papers gravely assure us that it will imperil the democratic party's chances of success if the people persist in choos- ing the nominee for senater. “Hold on boys,” they say, “don’t be too fast.

DeARMOND REFUSED TO BE HOODWINKED, Palmyra Herald, 21.—The con- gressmen who went to the Philip pines to investigate conditions there are enroute home, but will hardly get here in time for the opening of congress, Among them is DeArmond, and a Marion county boy stationed at Manila writes interestingly of him. He says the other congressmen per- mitted themselves to be wined and dined and carried around by inter. ested parties, who took care that they should see only the most favor- able side. As a result, they kriow absolutely nothing of the conditions in the Philippines and this Marion county boy says it will be amusing to hear them talk glibly in congress of matters of which they are profoundly ignorant. On the other hand, he says DeArmond refused to be hood- winked. He conducted his own in- vestigation by himself, went every- was not intended he should see, and asa result, when he gets up to talk about the Philippines in congress: we may rely on what he says, for he took nothing on hear-say; he insist- ed on seeing with his own eyes. This is only another illustration of the kind of mau David DeArmond really ONE OF THE PUREST. Stone and Clark seem to think that they are the only senatorial trees in the fdtest; but if they will just wait they will observe another giant loom- ing up. Judge DeArmond will be in it.—Dunklin Democrat. Judge DeArmond is one of the purest men in public life in our state, who would reflect credit on his. peo- ple in any position to which he might aspire; but he is surely getting a very uneven start in his race for the United States Senate.—Marble Hill Press.

Haskell, representative of the American board at Samako, Bulgaria, which — ex- presses grave fears that the reports of Miss Ellen M. Stone’s death is well founded. He says her death would account for the stubborn refusal of the brigands to give safe conductto one of our representatives to see the prisoners, Miss Stone and her Bul- garian helper, in order to certify that they are still alive before we pay over the ransom money. The supreme court of the United States on Monday handed down its decision declaring Philippine tariff invalid, because the islands. became domestic territory by Paris treaty, and that a resolution by congress respecting their status doesnot hold. From this it appears we own the child and cannot desert it no matter how bad we would like to disown or lose it. It may prove a veritable old man of the sea on or shoulders.
