The fight was well understood to be that of the department at Washington, which started in to dis- grace Schley. It is no doubt hard for the creature to rise above the will of theereator, and especially when there navy are future favors to be considered, Admiral Dewey's minority freport shows that his judgment was that Schley should not only have been fully vindicated, but given full eredit as commander-in-chief for the de- struction of the Spanish fleet off Santiago de Cuba, on that memor- able Srd of duly, But the Admiral’s spirit was weak, He evidently had no desire to come in conflict with that powerful clique that was hounding the man on trial for his honor and reputation, He made a faint effort to.assert his betternature and perform his sworn duty, but the otticial pressure Was too great, It is seldom two great opportuni- ties are offered to one man in life to make his name immortal, Fortu- nate indeed is the man who has one, and has the intelligence and courage to embrace it, To Admiral Dewey two great opportunities were offered, The first he embraced, and the world applauded him the greatest naval hero ofages. ‘The second came when he was given the opportunity to de- fend a brother officer, who had won agreat naval victory, equal if not TIP han nis own, trom w@ pac jackals and hyenas trying to drag himtohis death, Then indeed would his greatness have shone, and men would have applauded him as great in war, but greater still in peace in doing his full duty in the sight of God and man, And Dewey could have righted this great wrong, ifhe had fixed his pur- pose, as he did in far off Manila bay, he would havedamned the hidien shoals and torpedoes arid mines, the cliques, the cabols and conspirators, he would have stirred for the right, and turned his batteries upon the evils and corruptions, false witnesses and damnable plots and sunk them allas he did the Spanish fleet on that beautiful May morning, and hisname and fame would have been assured without a shadow or speck to mar them. Admiral Schley stand vindicated in the judgment of all true Americans, andthe accurate history of thatjwar, naval not written by a tool of the navy —cliquebut-by_a_historian, will give him the full credit he deserves CARDWELL’S BACK DOWN. W. 0. Cardwell has already receiv- ed entirely too muclifree advertising. sy his own actions he has demon- strated that he was a seeker after notoriety, and he has got enough to last. an ordinary individual a life time. He began his suit against the St. Lonis Republic to vindicate his honor,” and with a blare of trumpets threatened to sue te that publish- ed Secretary Cook's letter, among them Tue Times. The processes or- dinarily pursued in suits of that na- ture were too prosaic for this apos- tle of political reform. He wanted all the notoriety possible out of this “vindication of his honor’ business. He began faking depositions before a notary public in’ Jackson county as he claimed every paper in the st: and stummoned prominent demo- ' . : erativ politicians and offiee holders from different sections of the state to give their testimeny. Their efforts in this direetion had more the appearance of trying to besmireh the democratic organiza- tion, than of helping Cardwell in his libel suit. It looked very much like those witnesses were being “played horse” with, Mr. Cardwell himself didn’t testify. Not one of his star witnesses were examined, yet he dis- missed the suit in consideration of $7,500 paid to him, so he claims, by a party by the name of Brown, whom he had never seen before, who did not claim to represent The Republic, the only other party to the suit and the only one with whom a settlement could have been made. The Repub- lie vehemently denies that it ever paid Cardwell a penny or retracted a Now some people are wondering BOSC 09OO 29000 09 808920000 008508800008 Hs Stylish hats $1.00 to. $ Plush caps, 50c; T5e¢ an Mufflers 25¢, 50c, T5e a Holiday suspenders, 1 } Children’s suits, nobby Fancy colored dress shi Fine cashmere and silk graved free.

If he got the money | he elaims, in the opinion of many, his honor was dearly bought. That | unknown philanthropist paid entire- ly too much for the article. Mr. Cook, the Republic and every honest democrat in the — state wanted the investigation contin- ued. If managers of the dem- ocratie party had promised protec- tion to corporations and trusts, in consideration of campaign contribu- tions, the facts ought to have been brought out, and the author of such an expose would have earned the ev- erlasting gratitude of the democratic party. When Cardwell made such charges Mr. Cook denounced him as a liar, a tool of the lobby and a dis- grace to his party. When summon ed to give his testimony Mr. Cook tpaveledhali-verass.thextateand. answered freely and fully every ques- tion asked him. Neither Mr. Cook nor the Republic attempted to puta single obstacle in the way of a full and fair investigation, and yet this self-esteemed political reformer lost the opportunity to do his party great service and make himself fa- mous, if he really believed what he j THE NEW BABY Opens up a new world to the loving mother. If it is a strong, healthy baby that new world is a world of happiness, If it is a weak, fretful child the new world is full of anxiety. It has been proven in thousands of cases, that the use of Dr. Picfce’s Favorite Prescrip- tion makes all the difference betweerr strength and weakness in children. Healthy, happy mothers have healthy, happy children. ‘ Favorite Prescrip- tion” gives the mother strength to give her child. It makes the baby’s advent practically painless and promotes the secretion of the nourishment necessary te a healthful feeding of the nursing child.

His worst enemy could not have wished him placed in a more contemptible attitude. As to whether Cardwell got $5,000, or $7,500 or a singlecent, we are not informed. We are satisfied, however, that he never received a cent from the Republic, or Mr. Cook or the dem- ocratic party. Ifhe got money to dismiss the suit, it was from the par- ty or parties who instigated it and lost control and feared for their own reputations. But the claim that he makes, that he got money, sounds mighty “fishy” to us. The democratic papers and _politi- cians who upheld Cardwell in his dis- reputable attempt at a “hold up,” should now be heartily ashamed of themselves. The name of Cardwell should be expunged from the demo- erate roll and inentioned te more in party councils. FOR SUPREME JUDGE. Joplin Globe, The Nevada Mail has brought eut Judge W. W. Graves, of Butler, asa reandidate for judge of the Missouri supreme court. The Mail says: “There is considerable talk of late of Judge W. W. Graves, of Butler, becoming a candidate for the demo- eratic nomination of judge of the statesupreme court. There are three to elect next year. Through hiscon- nection with prominentlegal business Judge Graves is favorably known as an able lawyer throughout the state. He is at present judge of the circuit court, and an able, learned judge at that. His decisions are regarded as the very best, and his standing is good with bench and bar, and the people as well. His popularity is de- served, and should he become a can- didate for this office southwest Mis- ;sourimay be expected to stand by him solidly, and it will be backed by a strong following throughout the state. That he would make a clear- headed, hard-working, efficient and able member of this body of learned legal men no one who knows him has a shadow of a doubt.” The Mail is Tight, there is consider- able talk of Judge Graves’ candidaty for Supreme Judge and the leading politicians throughout the state rec- ognize that he will be an important factor in that race-—He-is—young, ableand energetic, a lawyer of ability and deep learning, a fair and impar- tial Judge who knows the law and administers it fearlessly. He is prompt in his rulings, thereby expe- diting business Judge Gravesisone of the most genial, sociable gentlemen in the state, and is especially popu- larwith the people. He is self made in all the words imply, having work- ed himself up to his present exalted | | position by his own efforta froma poorfarmer boy. He is astalwart Soniveenty bowing -in-submission to the will of his party expressed in con- vention, an active and effective work- er. He is true loyal to his friends, an open-handed, big hearted, generous, whole-souled gentleman, who next to his party loves the com- mon people, of whom he is one. He and |is strongest where he is best known. ' \Ifhe isn’t nominated, his successful |competitors will know that he wasin | the race. | AN ABLE JURIST. Judge W. W. Graves, of Butler, |Cireuit Judge in this District, is a candidate for the Democratic nomi- nation for Judge of the State Su- preme Court. Judge Graves is an able jurist and durieg his term on the bench in this District has beeome decidedly popular with the people of all parties. His decisions on law points stand the test of the State Su- preme Court and he is regarded as first among the able lawyers in the State. He well deserves the popu- larity. he has gained among the peo- ple, and it is hoped he will besuccess- ful in getting the Democratic nomi- nation for Supreme Court Judge.— Clinton Democrat.

When asked by a Republicreporter ifhe would be a candidate for the United States Senatorship, Judge De- Armond jsaid: “In such a broad matter ada senatorship, you could gét more information by tinding out whom the people favor than by learn- ing what I want. I imagine that ev- ery member of the House would be willing to go into Senate, if allhe had to do were to choose.
