MISSOURI


The ST. Louis (Missouri) Union, Of August 2lst,
makes the following statement in relation to the re-
cent election in that State.


Returns have come in from all the counties Of
the district except DunkIn, showing the result that
Judge Bowln Is elected by a majority Of nearly
thousand votes. The aggregate Is nearly as fol-
lows:


"Bown 1915, Wright 4,9l7, Mlburn 800.


"Bowlns majorty over Wright is 2355, over
all opponents 53S In this statement we have the
majority only from Shannon not the full vote.
Dunkln will, no doubt, swell Judge Bowlins ma
lority to about one thousand.


notwithstanding the confident boast Of the ma
twists, that their congressional candidate would be
elected, he has, with all Of the aid he received from
the wings, obtained only about one-Ihird Of the
votes poed in this district 1t evident that most
OF the whig votes in the different counties were
given to Mr.. Wright ami the result demonstrates
the utter inability OF the wings and navis,s COM
bIned, TO carry this district against the demoe-
racy.


80 in this county. The nativists in ST. Louis
IN minority Of at least 900, as the recent cleo
ton fully proved. II there had been a coneentra-
tion Of democratic votes, democrats would have
been elected to every Office by heavy majortes.
These facts prove how strong the democracy Of this
district and county really are, and if independent
candidates do not enter the field, we have fear
Of success


THE only adversary against whom the demo-
Gratis Of ST. Louis have now TO contend, is the ma
twist party. With distraction among our oppo-
nents, who shall say, that henceforth we shall not
achieve victory easily, and in every contest"
