Eldridge, there was doubt, but as
soon as it became Kramer

On test Monday, all the differ
ent candidates were present at
FakesChappel with the exception
of Fred Shrceter. The candidates
for representative were the first
speakers. Mr. Eldridge spoke of
his being in favor of better pro
viding for the insane of our land,
etc. The News man E. C. Kramer,
was the next to speak. He gave
his reasons why he was a candi
date and declared himself in favor
of a government of the people,
by the people and for the people,
and charged that John Eldridge
a candidate that represents a
government of a ring, by a ring
and for a ring. Charged that Pen
rose is not a Democrat, but a
populist of the rankest order.
In 1892 he was a candidate for
the Legislature against the Dem
ocratic nomonee. Can an honest
democrat support such a doubt
ful political excuse? We think not.
The people did not endorse him
then and will not now. So who is
the candidate of the throbbing
hearts of the Democratic masses?
None other than Kramer. He is
it. In the rejoinders Mr.
Eldridge and Penrose both jump
ed on Kramer for his favoring the
numbering of the county scrip as
it is issued. We simply wish to
say that this is a business like,
manner in which to pay scrip
and the state of Missouri now has
this law on her statute books. |
Indiana and Illinois formerly had
this law, but as they have long
since abandoned the scrip they
no longer need it or use it. This
is but a little sophistry on their
part. No man can dig up any
hardship out of this theary. Next
we enjoyed a feast for a dinner,
kindly prepared by the good and
hospitable people of Barnes Town- ■■
ship. They know how to tempt
the appitite of the most exacting.
The News Man, on behalf of him
self and all the other candidates
thanks the ladies, for this their
forethought. After dinner the
other candidates announced
themselves.

It will be remembered that the
News man broke the ice last
week for a brick city hall. Since
. then we are pleased to notify the
people that someothers have
voluntarily come forward in the
cause of progress and our list
now stands as follows: News
man, $25.00, H. H. Walker Sr.,
$15.00. While we are not beg
ging, yet we expect every loyal,
progressive patriot of our town
to tell the News man what they
will do without being solicited.
This is a work in which the
whole town is interested. Let
us all speek out and do our work
in time. Who will be next?
On last Wednesday night Hon.
j Eugene Parrish spoke at our
school house to a large and ap
preciative audience. Mr Par
rish is a patriot and the way he
denounces the offspring of Re
publican mis-rule is a caution.
He spoke for an hour and a half
and during his entire speech,
which was dressed in the
choicest language, be turned the
search-light of truth upon the
evil and inconsistent deeds of re-1
publicanism. We have had thei
pleasure of hearing a great many
political speeches in our lives,
but this speech was undoubtedly
i one of the ablest efforts we have
; ever heard. He called upon the
J history of the past and pointed
| out the dangerous breakers upon
| which those governments perish
ed and decayed and from com
parison he concluded that our
| government would go likewise
i unless we assert our preroga
tions of citizenship and stand by
our constitution. Everyone was !
well pleased with the speech1
from beginning to end.
