The Democratic Banner was published in 1868, by J. H. Robert- son, who remained editor and publisher till 1872, at which time he disposed of his interest. to Connedy & Kingsbury. The press wa- sold for debt in 1875, when the paper was discontinued.
The Howard County Banner was moved from Glasgow, Missouri. in 1853, by R. C. Hancock, who purchased the office from W. B. Twombly. It was published by Leland Wright a short time after- wards ; then again 'by R. C. Hancock. In 1858, Hancock sold to Randall & Jackson, who continued the publication of the paper until the breaking out of the civil war, when the publishers entered the Confederate army. During their absence the office was seized and sold, and passed into the hands of I. N. Houck, who changed the name of the paper to the Howard County Advertiser. Houck & Jackson purchased the paper from Randall. Randall sold out to Houck in 1861 and entered the southern army. Mr. Houek contin- ued to publish the paper until the summer of 1864, when he went to Illinois, where he remained until April, 1865. In June of that year. he returned to Fayette, where he soon thereafter resumed the publi- cation of the Advertiser. In 1868, he sold a half interest to General John B. Clark, Jr., and the paper was published under the firm name of Honek & Clark for about ten months, when Houck sold his inter-

est to Clark. In 1871, Houck again purchased the Advertiser, which was continued until December, 1872, when it was sold, and became the property of its present owner, Charles J. Walden. On the 13th of July, 1882, the entire office was consumed by fire, nothing being saved except the files for the past five years and the subscription book. The paper appeared regularly, however, without missing an issue. It was printed at the Boonville Advertiser office until new material and machinery could be bought and put in.
In the spring of 1874, Honek & Frederick started a paper in the interest of the Patrons of Husbandry called the Ploughman. It was printed a short time, when Houck purchased the interest of Frederick and continued the publication seven months, when he sold the paper.
In September, 1879, Honck & Butler commenced the publica- tion of the Fayette, Missouri, Independent, which was run a year under the firm name of Houck & Butler, when the latter sold his interest to Houck, who published it until July 13, 1882, when it was destroyed by fire. Mr. Houck, however, nothing daunted, recommenced the publication of the Independent the following September.
Hardly had the town started on its way in the race to commer- cial prosperity before the printing press was put in motion.
The first newspaper was the Pilot, and published by J. T. Ques- enbury prior to the year 1840. This paper was afterwards published by different parties, among whom were Dr. John H. Blue and James A. DeCourcy.
The Bunner, T. W. Twombly, editor, was among the first papers.
The Glasgow Times was run by Clark H. Green for a number of years, and until 1861.
The Glasgow News was published by Walter B. Foster.
The Glasgow Journal was established in 1868 by General Lucien J. Eastin, who, with his sons, continued the publication of the same until 1881, when Colonel H. W. Cockerill purchased the paper, and has since run it.
The Central Missourian began its existence in 1879, the first number being issued July 31, by Yeaman & Bowen, who were suc- ceeded by Boweu & Rutfel, who are the present (1883) proprietors.
The Armstrong Autograph, published at Armstrong, Prairie township, was started in January, 1883, by Dentith & Ferlet.

The volunteers embarked at Glasgow, on the 25th day of May, 1846, on the steamer Wapello, for Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. After the arrival of all the volunteers at that place, from Missouri, an election was held, which resulted in the choice of Alexander W. Doni- phan, colonel ; C. F. Ruth, lieutenant-colonel, and William Gilpin, major.
PUBLIC MEETINGS.
In June, 1847, after the volunteers had been gone about one year from Howard county, public meetings were held at Fayette and Glasgow to make arrangements for giving a proper reception to the returned volunteers from Mexico.
The committee ( at Fayette) of arrangements consisted of A. W. Morrison, C. II. Green, A. J. Herndon, J. Headrick, B. Watts, L. Crigler, R. L. Coleman, C. C. P. Hill, C. F. Jackson, William Buster, J. C. Hackley, S. Brown, John C. Ross, R. W. Boggs, James Cooper and others.
The committee on reception at Glasgow was composed of Jesse Haston, Thomas Peery, Richard Dicken, Richard Earickson, L. S. Eddins, Thomas Shackelford, May B. Collins, J. C. Thomson, William F. Dunnica and others.
The reception at Fayettee occurred July 23d. Early in the morning of that day, a salute of thirteen guns was fired from one of the cannons captured at the battle of Sacramento, by the Howard county soldiers. William A. Hall welcomed the volunteers in an elo- quent speech. Joseph Pulliam served as host at the dinner table. The Glasgow brass band was present, and discoursed some excellent music.
The reception took place at Glasgow, on Thursday, July 8th, 1847. Hon. Thomas Shackelford made the address of welcome. Major Gilpin and Governor C. F. Jackson also addressed the meeting.
CALIFORNIA EMIGRANTS OF 1849 -50.
" The plague of gold strikes far and bear - And deep and strong it enters;
E. Montgomery.
267
HISTORY OF HOWARD AND CHARITON COUNTIES.
Our thoughts grow dark, our words grow strange, We cheer the pale gold diggers ;
Each soul is worth so much on change, And marked like sheep with figures."
No doubt the desire for gold has been the mainspring of all pro- gress and enterprise in the county, from the beginning till the present time, and will so continue till remote ages. Generally, how- ever, this desire has been manifested' in the usual avenues of thrift, industry and enterprise. On one occasion it passed the bounds of reason and assumed the character of a mania.
The gold mania first broke out in the fall of 1848, when stories began to be spread abroad of the wonderful richness of the placer mines in California. The excitement grew daily, feeding on the marvellous reports that came from the Pacific slope, and nothing was talked of but the achievements of gold diggers. The papers were re- plete with the most extravagant stories, and yet the excitement was so great that the gravest and most incredulous men were smitten with the contagion, and hurriedly left their homes and all that was dear to them on earth, to try the dangers, difficulties and uncertainties of hunting gold. Day after day, and month after month, were the papers filled with glowing accounts of California.
Instead of dying out, the fever mounted higher and higher. It was too late in the fall to cross the plains, bat thousands of people in Missouri began their preparations for starting in the following spring, and among the number were many from Howard county. The one great subject of discussion about the firesides that winter ( 1848), was the gold of California. It is said at one time the majority of the able-bodied men of the county were unsettled in mind, and were con- templating going to California. Even the most thoughtful and sober- minded, found it difficult to resist the infection.
Wonderful sights were seen when this emigration passed through - sights that may never be seen again in Howard county. Some of the emigrant wagons were drawn by cows ; other gold hunters went on foot and hauled their worldly goods in hand-carts. The gold hunters generally left the moralities of life behind them, and were infested with a spirit of disorder and demoralization. The settlers breathed easier when they passed. Early in the spring of 1849, the rush began. It must have been a scene to beggar all description. There was one continuous line of wagons from east to west as far as the eye could reach, moving steadily westward, and, like a cyclone, drawing in its course on the right and left, many of those along its pathway. The
-

gold hunters of Howard crowded eagerly into the gaps in the wagon- trains, bidding farewell to their nearest and dearest friends, many of them never to be seen again on earth. Sadder farewells were never spoken. Many of the emigrants left their quiet and peaceful homes. only to find in the " Far West" utter disappointment and death. At the time of the treaty of Gaudaloupe Hidalgo, the population of California did not exceed thirty thousand, while at the time of which we write there were more than three hundred and fifty thousand peo- ple, who had found their way thither, fully one hundred thousand of these being gold hunters from the states.
The evil effects of this gold mania upon the moral status of the United States are still seen and felt, and in all classes of society. It has popularized the worship of Mammon to an alarming extent, and to this worship, in a great measure, is attributed the moral deelension of to-day.

HOWARD COUNTY UPON THE EVE OF THE CIVIL WAR.
A complete history of what was said and done in Howard county. just preceding the great civil war, which swept over our country like a besom of destruction, would fill a large book. Of course, we have neither the time nor space to devote to such a work. Even if we had and were inclined to write it, we should doubt the propriety of doing so. One of the oldest and most highly esteemed citizens of the county. when questioned upon this subject said : " Better let bygones be by- gones," and so we think.
There were, however, some things that transpired upon the eve of that gigantic struggle which were quite significant of the character of the spirit and temper of the people, and of these we shall briefly -peak.
UNION MEETING IN FAYETTE.
The citizens of Howard county, or at least a large number of them, met in the court-house on the third day of December, 1860, to consult in reference to the welfare of the county. The Glasgow Weekly Times gives an account of that meeting as follows : -
On motion of R. T. Prewitt, the meeting was organized by the election of the following gentlemen : -

On motion of A. J. Herndon, a committee of sixteen was ap- pointed to draft resolutions expressive of the sense of the meeting. The chair appointed the following gentlemen on said committee :
A. J. Herndon, J. M. Marmaduke,
Benjamin J. Payne,
N. G. Elliott,
J. F. Williams.
John P. Sebree,
C. H. Green.
W. P. Jackson,
Thomas Shackelford,
S. E. Graves,
James S. Thomson.
J. F. Hughes,
Andrew Cooper,
S. T. Hughes,
James Simms. R. T. Prewitt.
On motion of N. G. Elliott, an additional committeeman from each township was added to the above list, viz :
Richmond township, Neriah Todd. Chariton township, M. B. Collins.
Bonne Femme township, J. Hockersmith.
Prairie township, Joseph B. Bradford.
Boone's Lick township, William M. Burton.
Franklin township, R. II. Robinson.
Monitean township, John Walker.
During the progress of the meeting, and in the absence of the committee, the citizens present were ably and eloquently addressed by Judge A. Leonard, of Howard county, Judge William A. Hall, of Randolph county, and Major James S. Rollins, of Boone county.
The committee on resolutions made the following report : -
Resolved, 1. That the election to the presidency of any person. constitutionally eligible to that office, according to the forms of the constitution, i- no cause for disunion.
2. That we regard the election of Abraham Lincoln as a triumph of sectionalism over nationalism - of fanaticism over patriotism ; but
271
HISTORY OF HOWARD AND CHARITON COUNTIES.
while we have in the northern states a million and a half of patriotic freemen, voting and battling with us for our country, we will not dis- pair of the republic.
3. That resistance to the fugitive slave law by the people, and virtual nullification of its provisions by the legislature of the states of the north, are an actual grievance of which we have a right to complain, as illegal, unconstitutional, and unfriendly to us : but we believe that the proper remedy is not to dissolve the union and fight against the constitution, but to stand by the union and maintain the constitution and enforcement of the laws.
4. That we have a majority of both houses of congress with us, who can and ought to require and compel the striet enforcement of the fugitive slave law, and all other legally enacted laws of the United States, no matter what the cost.
5. That the proposed resignation of southern congressmen at this juncture, which may have the effect of giving the republicans a majority in congress, would be an injudicious and improper desertion of their friends.
6. That our senators and representatives in congress are re- quested to offer a resolution requiring the general government to enforce the fugitive slave law with all the power of the government, and pledging the congress to supply the means.
Another monster union meeting was held in Fayette, in Feb- ruary, 1861. At this meeting, Thomas Shackelford, of Glasgow, received the nomination as a candidate to the convention at Jefferson City.
LADIES' UNION MEETING.
The ladies of Fayette held a union meeting at the court-house, January 29, 1861, and unanimously adopted the following resolu- tions : -
Resolved, 1. That the 100 ladies, whose names are here enrolled, do still love our country, our whole country, and our country's con- stitution ; and we feel that it is perfectly consistent with the char- acter of refined, intelligent, and patriotic ladies to make a public demonstration of our feelings in this time of peril to our country and our liberties.
2. That as the most appropriate manner of doing this, we will, with our hands, make a national flag, to be presented to the man who shall be selected for a union representative from this county.
3. That on Monday night, February 4th, several gentlemen be invited to address ns, and upon that occasion, we will present our flag to the union candidate, praying him in the name of our state, and for the sake of that flag, to do all in his power to keep Missouri true to her allegiance to the union and the constitution.
On the evening of the 4th of February, the Methodist Episcopal church building, in Fayette, was crowded with an eager and interested
272
HISTORY OF HOWARD AND CHARITON COUNTIES.
audience. Miss Jane Lewis had been invited to make the presenta- tion address, and as it is a most appropriate, eloquent, and patriotic address, we bere present it : --
The time of danger is at hand. Our republic is shaken to the centre. The American union, the standard-bearer in the onward march of the nations, has paused in its splendid career ! Our con- stitution, the ablest work of uninspired mortal minds, is decried and attacked. Our beloved country, our mighty and magnificent union, is convulsed by a moral earthquake, which threatens to rend it asunder. and leave it a hopeless ruin, a " by-word and a shaking of the head to the nations." Our flag, our stainless banner of the star< and stripes insulted ! Yes ! torn down, trampled under foot, by those who owe to its protection all the rights of sovereign citizens ! Now, indeed, the time has come when " man must rise and woman call to God!" To man belongs the privilege of defending in the council and on the field the honor of his country, and the rights of it- citizens. Woman can only weep over the woes of her native land. pray to the Great Ruler, in whose hands are the destinies of all nations, and trust, implicity trust, to the wise heads, the stronger arme, the braver hearts of her countrymen. The time of trial draws near. A few days will decide whether Missouri will throw off her allegiance to the federal union, violate her most solemn pledges, or remain loyal to her own constitution, to the whole nation. to the human race, to Almighty God ! Missouri is in the centre, the very heart of the union. And our county, our noble old Howard, is the heart of Missouri. Let that heart remain steadfast and true, and its every throb shall be felt throughout its political body. And through you, that heart must find a voice. I, then, in the name and by the authority of my countrywomen of Favette, whose names are recorded on it, present to you, and through you to the citizens of Howard county, this flag, made with our own hands; it is offered from our hearts. With it we commit to your guardianship all that we hold most sacred. By all the hallowed associations clinging around this spotless banner of our country, we pray you, in the coming struggle to stand fast to the cause of the union and the right. Through your voice, let the heart of old Howard speak in thrilling tones to the state, to the union, to the world ! In the hour of high and solemn debate, remember us and our flag and all of which it is a symbol. This flag knows no north, no south ; the whole undivided, glorious union is its own !
Remember and vote for the union! Remember that disunion means war, civil and, servile war. Then by the thought of all of war's tremendous horrors, by the thought of outraged women and murdered children, burning homes, of a desolated country, of a ruined race, save the union! Take, then, our flag, and with it take onr highest hopes, our heartfelt prayers for the union. By the memory of the day when its starry folds were first unrolled to the winds of

heaven. proclaiming to the world that a nation was born, guard our flag ! By the memory of our ancestors, who stood by it for seven long years in many a hard fought field, in want, in eold, in pesti- lence, in famine, guard our flag ! By the memory of the all cloudless glory of Washington, who, in death, left the union a sacred bequest in charge to his countrymen, guard our flag! By the memory of Bunker Hill, where haughty England first learned that American arms were wielded by a nation's heart, guard our flag! By the memory of Jackson and his heroic band, who saved the Crescent City, guard our flag ! By the memory of the unconquered, the un- conquerable hearts
" Who scorned to yield, On Buena Vista's bloody field."
By the memory of those who sleep beneath the walls of Monterey, guard our flag! Theme of the poet ! hope of the exile ! refuge of the oppressed ! signal of civilization and progress ! type and pledge of the freedom and union of all lands ! Go! flag of our country, our whole country ! To faithful hands, to fearless hearts we commit thee ! Once more unfurl thy radiant eolors ! Let not one star grow dim ! Let not one glowing tint grow pale : But, high above the storms of faction, triumphant over every unworthy strife, still float on ! And, for ages to come, yes. to the eyes of all future generations
" The star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave,
O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave."
There was a similar presentation of a flag at Glasgow on the evening of the 6th of February, 1861, Miss Bettie C. Jackson making the presentation address.
Mr. Shackelford still has the flag ( 1883).
Union sentiments continued to predominate in Howard county until the surrender of Camp Jackson, after which time the people began to change their views in reference to the war which had been inaugurated, and boldly avowed their determination to unite with their brethern of the south in resisting coercion upon the part of the government.
HOWARD COUNTY DURING THE WAR OF 1861.
Compared to many other counties in Missouri, Howard county suffered but little during the war. The border counties suffered the most, especially those lying on the southwestern boundary, including Jackson, Cass and Bates. These counties coming specifically within the jurisdiction of General Ewing's order No. 11, they were almost wholly given up to pillage, and, in many localities, to the torch - notably was this the case in Bates county, where but a few houses were left standing at the close of the war. No large battles were fought in Howard, nor were her citizens subjected to any
