There are telegraph and telephone with that town, and it is only 24 miles from DeLassus, on the lron Mountain railroad, the asylum being located midway between the two towns, 14 miles from each. We give these de- tails to show how easy it would have been for the Globe-Democrat to post itself on the conditions there, and how utterly inexcusable for it to mis- represent and falsify those conditions, The following is an excerpt froman editorial in Saturday's Globe-Demo- cusses connections erat: “Gov, Dockery’s trip) to Farming- ton, Mo., to consult with the com- mission in charge of the new asylum partly constructed in that town, but boarded up during the building sea- son, indicates that the democrats of southeastern) Missouri are asking unpleasant questions, The Farm- ington asylum was authorized by an act of the legislature approved April Ith, 1800, nearly three years ago, Work was begun, but for some rea- son not explained was suspended last appropriations.

Thorne, attorneys for the prisoner. Lewis Brown, a negro, wason trial charged with malicious shooting. A negro woman, who was on the stand testifying against ‘him, when the prisoner, leaping from the dock, made a murderous assault upon her, and attempted to brain her with a heavy inkstand. Judge William Carroll was on the bench. To save the witness he said, commandingly: “Mr. Sheriff, shoot that man down if necessary.” The sheriff, F. B.
