VOL. IV. Butler Week BUTLER, MISSOURI, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 15 1882 us CAPITAL JOTTIN feoville Will Retire—Star Rout Mat- ters—Death—Failures, &c. The Town of Austin Swept Away by a Break in the Levee—More Rations Called For. WILL RETIRE. Washington, March 10o.—Mr. Sco ville arrived yesterday evening. He says as soon as the bill of exeception in Guiteau’s case 1s ready he will retire from the defense. STARK ROUTE Cabell and Moner this morning gave bail, $5,000 each, in the Star Route cases Col. Ingersoll came into court with his client, Ex-Sena- *tor Dorsey. Sliss, counsel for the Government, asked that bail for the appearance of Dorsey aad J. W. Jersey be fixed at $10,000 in cach case of Riode!l the Gavernment would ask for $5,000 surety. Ex- Senator Dorsey then offered J. W. Humphrey as his bondsman. He was accepted. DIED. The State Department 1s informed ot the death of Rev. Henry Highland Garnett, United States Ministers to Liberia, at Monrovia, the 13th of Febuary. Secretary Hunt telegraphed Lieut. Danenhower, at Irkutsk, to allow Novos, one of the Jeannette crew, to accompany the New York Herald correspondent to the mouth of the Lena river. American Ladies- The first impression Sara Barnhardt re- ceived of the American ladies manitested itself thusly:—“Oh! ze ladies, za are so beautiful, such clear complexion I never see before,"’ all of which is due to the universal use of Swayne’s Ointment for skin diseases, which insures a clear and clean complexion, and a healthy color. This recalls to mind the divine precept “cleanliness is next to Godliness. Mar 1-dw-1m MempFis, Tenn., March 8-—The: river remains stationary here, with |. 36 teet on the guage. Passengers who arrived this morning trom be- low report that the levee at Helena, Ark., was stillintact yesterday atter- noon. A force of 300 men were at work guarding all the weak points. The river there was rising steadily AT AUSTIN, MISS., between Memphis and Helena. the river has cut through the town des troying the principal buildings, among the number, the Masonic temple, the centennial block, alarge brick building, demolished, the wa- ter being 25 feet deep all around it. Several store-houses and dwellings were washed away and carried a dis- tance of half a mile. The loss of stock continues and the situation is “hourly growing more desperate. MORE RATIONS. ' H Washington, March 8.—The sec- | retary of war continues to receive | dispatches representing that the dis- | tress is increasing in the overflowed | districts of the Mississippi Valley, and stating that the rations sent will | soon be exhausted. Twenty thou- | sand more rations have been order- | ed sent to Memphis. ! SE See een i Man's Ingratitude- This is an ungrateful world to say the } least. A man will act like a lunatic when he has the Itching Piles, and declare that he knows he can’t live another day, yet he applies Swayne’s Ointment, the in- | tense itching isallayed at once, he gets | about it? | MANUFACTURING INTERE | What Butler Needs, and What She Can Get, by Proper Exertion. Since the first issue of the Daily Times it has given an unqualified support to every manufacturing en- terprise, and has-aimed to thus keep | { i | | | to the importance and advancement of Butler. By some this work— though only our duty we admit—has been appreciated, while others scarce- |ly give ita passing notice. But, j nevertheless, our faith is yet un- jshaken, our zeal unabated. The | Times will continue to perform this | duty whether it be appreciated or | not. | For | years the Butler pres thumping away at manufacturies, and until quite recently nothing has rewarded the effort. Just at this | time there appears to be a crisis in the affairs of Butler as they relate to manufacturies etc. and unless action, speedy and decisive is immediately taken, we are apt to get most inglo- riously left in the race for suprema- CVs SASH,DOOR AND BLIND MANUFACTORY it is now asettled fact that Wyatt & Boyd will erect a large building near the depot in which they will place a very complete outfit of ma- chinery for the manufacture of sash doors, blinds etc. We have already a pottery and THE WOOLEN MILLS. Forsome time past McClintock & Son have been making efforts to en- large their establishment, erect new buildings, in which work can be car- ried onthe year round, whereas now they can’t do anything during the winter months, add new and more improved machinery and many oth- er facilities necessary tor so impor- tant a manufactory. We are happy to say that arrangements are about consummated by which the proprie- tors expect to make this improve- ment. A FOUNDRY. The citizens of Butler are now brought face to face with two propo- sitions for the location of a Foundry here. either ot which is certainly very liberal. rensburg have offered to move their Foundry to this place if our peovle would pay the costofremoval. An- other proposition has just been_re- ceived from Ohio through Mr. Mc- Clintock, to locate an_ establishment of that kind here for $1,000. INSANE ASYLUM. For a month and more the Times has kept continually before the pub- Pleasanton, to locate an asylum for the insane at Butler <A meeting | will he heldin the room of the But- , ler National Bank Tuesday night to consider this matter. Citizens of Butler, the two last named institutions—Asylum_ — and Foundry—are unsettled propositions. Surely everyone of you recognize their v great importance to any town or city It is within your pow- er to secure these acquisitions to our wealth and growth by a_ very little exertion and money. Will you be equal to the demand? or will you allow the opportunities to shp while you indulge in idle talk and inaction? Manufacturies and institutions of 1 po-tance have been the cry with you for years, now as the matter is sim- and cents, what do you intend to do Gentlemen, think of these cured, and goes down to the lodge without one whit of gratitude. When asked why he looks so cheerful, he dodges the ques- tion by an indifferent answer like a man though, is’nt it? Mar. t-dw-1m Faslures_ York, March New 10.—R. G.

Greenback Convention. | St Louis, March 9.—The Green- | | back convention consumed nearly | | the whole day in discussing a plat- form, and after many speeches and Your | adopted: committee, not deeming it the wish of this conven- | ; tion at this time to create an abso- | lute division in the existing Green- back organization, but rather, 1t pos- | sible, to secure a united party. On ;such fundamental principles and ;measures of reform as shall secure this in the near future, we have for- mulated the following in lieu ot the | principles and measures of the second | section of the Chicago platform: That we demand the immediate | banks of issue, and that Congress shall provide by law for the circulat- ing and issuing of unfundable full legal tender paper money, not a promise to pay, and not to exceed in amount the present interest bearing funded indebtedness of the United States, to substitute the issue of Na- tional bank currency and pay the current expenses of the Government ; and we demand that all funding or refunding laws be repealed, the bonds declared due at once and pay- able, and that the total revenue of the Government be appropriated tor their speedy payment. The resolutions are epitomized as follows: 1. The abolition of State and Na- tional Banks. z. Demands that all outstanding bonds be declared due and that they be paid off with monies on hand or to be issued by the Government in monthly installments, and the pass- age of a constitutional amendment prohibiting the sale or issue of bonds. 3. Demands the exemption from sale for debt or taxes of a homestead of $2,000 value. 4- The public lands to be held for actual settlers, and no grant of over 160 acres to be made to one person. 5: The establishment of a bureau of national statistics. 6. The election ot all members of the Legislature and Congressmen by |a popular vote at large, without re- | gard to county or district lines. | . The election ot President and | Vice-President by a popular vote; ithe election ot United States Sena- |tors by the people direct. Foreign | ministers and collectors of customs | to be elected by the National Assem- | bly in joint session. |S. The power and growth of rail- ‘roads to be limited by legislation; |charters forfeited for watering of stock; members of Congress inter- ‘ested in any bank, railread or other ‘corporation to be deprived of the | right of voting money affecting cor- | porations. | g. Any person 21 years of age, | without regard to sex, to be entitled | to the right of suffrage in all popular | elections and to hold office. The convention then adjourned subject to the call of the national | committee. Major Lee Crandall, Secretary of the National Greenback Labor Exe- cutive Committee, was present to-day ; and used his influence to bring about | harmony between the contending wings of the party. | ii } } | | { ! i Happy Thought, plug tobacco is the best chewing tobacco, and the finest qual- ty manufactured. i4-3m I have got a fine stock of canned goods, | pickles, peach butter, &c., a little cheaper }than usual.

It is now over ffty years since this | medicine was offered as a remedy for} Worms, and from that time its reputa- ; tion has steadily increased until at the/ present day it is almost universally ac- | knowledged throughout nearly all parts of the world to be the sovereign remedy. | Children often took pale and sickly from | no other cause than Worms and spasms | are most frequently the result of these hidden sappers and miners. Many a hepless child has been laid in the grave when the disease which caused its death has been entirely misunderstood, and when worms have been really the cause; therefore parents especially mothers, who are constantiy with their children, can- j not be too observing of the the first sym- | ptoms of worms, tor surely as they exist | can they be safely and speedily removed i from the most delicate infant, by the | timely use of B.
