St. Louls Republic, Clinton A. Welch, who managed the campaign for the Republicans in St. Louis two years ago and who furnished the first evidence to the Federal authorities regarding natu- ralization frauds, said yesterday that he did not intend to be sacri- iced by the hucksters now in control of the party organization, because ot his exposure of the Waldbridge- Butler deal. , Since the St. Joseph State Conven- tion, the Missouri State Republican, edited by E.C, Brokmeyer, and a number of country Republican papers, which are allied with the Walbridge crowd, have been attack- ing Welch and impugning his mo- tives, . As for Mr. Welch, he does not pro- pose to keep allent under fire. “I ‘am not ’sore,” said Mr, Welch yes- terday. ‘Isimply did my duty by exposing the ‘unholy alliance’ before the State Convention acted. It may not harmonize with the present organization’s idea of politics, but it has the merit of being honest. “T fail to see how my making the charge that a corrupt deal was made by the anti-Roosevelt forces in the State, aided by some Federal oftice- holders, with the criminal elements of the Democratic party can be con- strued asin aid of any Democratic nominee, as the deal was to give up everything on the State ticket, ex- cept the Republican nominee for Governor was to be supported by the crlminal element of the Demo- cratic »srty. No account was to be iaken of the Republican electoral vote and the Republican city ticket this fall and next spring were to be sacrificed. “J¢ is evident that it is the exposure of the corrupt alliance that has atruck consternation in the camp of the political bucketers and not the ‘existence of the alliance. The only thing I reyret is that I did not hear of the corrupt deal in time to have organized enough honest, patriotic Republicans together to have de- feated the scheme. “Missourl could have been carried tor Roosevelt and Fairbanks and also most, if not all, the Republican State ticket if the opportunity had not been huckstered away. Some of the men now in active control of the party were deposed from the elty committee two years ago by the State committee for bartering away the rights of the party. DEAL MADE TWO YEARS AGO. “A deal was made that year with Butler and Meriwether, by these same elements to divide the city offices in this city between these parties or representatives of their parties and the Republican party. The political hucketers areinanother deal, this time affecting the entire State, and the worst one in the his- tory of the party. This kind of deals bave come to be bienuialevents in St. Loutg politics. “Latand with a vast majority of Missouri Republicans, who are op- posed to such,treachery and corrup- tion and look to the future for 4 remedy. The honest, patriotic Re- publicans of this State will scourage euch corruptioniste, both great. and amall, out of the party. I do notbe- lieve reform can be procured through the channels of corruption. “T entered my protest at the State Convention betore it acted. I sound. ed the alarm of the coming danger.

Jeffersonville, Ohio, Citizen, Alice Helronimus was born in Lo- gan county, O., July 18, 1853, de- parted this lite August 3rd, 1904; aged 51 years and 15 days. Was united in marriage to Peter M. Ervin, Oct. 8. 1871, and to this union was born six children, two having preceded her to the spirit land, Media, the oldest having died at the age of 21, the other dying in infancy. The other four, Frank E., of Ver- non Co., Mo., Freddie R., Howard G. and Glessie I. and their father are left to mourn their loss. The de- ceaced united with the Christian church at Grassy Point about}.30 years ego under the pastorate of Wm. Overturt. In February 1885 incompany with her family emigrated to Bates Co., Mo., where they resided until Decem- ber, 1898, when on account of fail- ing health they moved back to their present home in Ohio, where they lived until death claimed her. While in Missouri thé deceased united with the United Brethern church under Rev. Snow. She was always a kind christian woman, and to know her was to be her friend. Was affec- tionate to her family in all affairs of The White Man’s Party. The Holden Enterprise contained a letter from a colored man purport- ing to be one Henry S. Baker, He writes to the Washington Post and calls attention to one of the vital dif ferences between the two great par- ties, showing how much better the negro was treated in the Chicago convention than in the one at St. Louis. Perhaps Henry 8. Baker’s hopes area little roseate and overdrawn but it seems to show the tendency of the times so far as Teddy, the Terri- ble, directs its course. The letter follows: “At the Republican convention the colored man was treated as a friend, companion and brother, There he was made to feel asifhe were not only a political, but a social equal. tc Line tieeel Gn hate Peace Talk at St. Petersburg. ple cf our beloved president Theo- Berlin, Aug. 21.—From very relia- dore Roosevelt, who teachos that the| ble sources at St. Petereburg it is colored man deserves to be treated | learned that the power ‘of the peace as a social qual.
