Mcleod had responded to a toast and. an inevitably usual, bad w$xed eioqueut. llid oration was real ly a prose poem in praise of Black river. He bad pictured his life a* en twined with that stream.

May field promised to withdraw from the race if lie could not prove the charges. When t he campaign party was <<|)foking In YorkvBle, as York was then known, Mayfleld very drama ti caily admitted liis inability to prove liis charge and withdrew from the race.

Archer, a man with a very Incisive voice, keen and high pitched. Archer arose with uf most gravity and requested i?erinission to interrupt, t.lu* -senator from Bam berg. When permission was given, he -.aid : ' I just arose to state that I think that eagle lit somewhere about York vilb> last summer."

MISSOURI WHETHER M Issourl uns actually visited hy Do Soto Ht the time of his dlscovrry of the M ississ'p pt is not definitely known. The first authentic exploration of thin territory was by the French, .Jnll?*t and Father Marquette In 1673. French settlers gradually located In Missouri, In 17t34 St. Louis being settled. This was ono year after Spain acquired from France the Louisiana Ter ritory of which Missouri was a part. Colonization greatly increased after the ordinance of 1767, which excluded slavery from the Northwest territory, as this nat urally deflected many to the ter ritory west of the Mississippi who otherwise would have set tled in the north. The slavery question continued to hold the stage In Missouri history After the Louisiana Purchase In 1!*)S added this vast western srea to the United States, emigration Increased to auch nn extent that in 1629 Missouri formed a stata government and applied for ad mission to the Union. Bitter an tagonism Immediately arose In congress against the addHIoo of another slave state, on the oth er hand the slavery Adherents pointed out that Main* had Just been taken Into the Union as a free state and one state would therefore balance the other A final settlement was made by the famous Missouri compromise, which accepted Missouri as a slave state but prohibited slavery In the rest of the territory north of a line extending fr<m the southern boundary M.ssourl to the Rocky Mountains. In deed, It was this agitation which, temporarily smothered at thrfk time, hurst forth in the Civ il war.
