Mr. Francisco is a young man of many excellent traits of character and qual- ifications tor the position he seeks. He is a good talker and is also a | good lawyer. His moral character and integrity. is unsullied and his Democracy is of that character that never flinches. Sim would honor the position ot Prosecutor should he | be elected at the primaries, and, we | believe, would give satisfaction to ! fall. Jefferson Aldredge, of this town- ship, announces himself as a can- didate for the position of Recorder of Bates county. Mr. Aldredge has been a resident of this county for many years and is very favorably and extensively known. Being very badly crippled, which neccessi- tates the use of crutches all the. while, Mr. A. has followed the oc- cupation of school teacher for a num- ber of years. Heis a clever gen- tleman, a qualified man for the of- fice and mdeed has a strong claim | upon the support ef the people. these things naturally seek its col- | ‘umns with their advertisements preference to that of the ‘+Patent’’ Record whose circulation is less than ‘*Boomin’’ [Mo. Republican. i |is to be found that of Wm. E | Fletcher, of Spruce,township, for Re- corder. Mr. Fletcher has been a citizen of Bates county for ten years | and is universally esteemed and re- | spected by his neighbors. He is an uncompromising Democrat, just the kind we want in office at this time. and is amply qualified tor the po- | sition of Recorder. Should he be nominated by the primaries in Sep- | tember his election would be secured | by a rousing majority. ——— = —— i ‘law of the late president Garfiela to the important office ot deputy Col- lector of the New House is an interesting item.

Y. Sun. OBITUARY. Fell asleep in Jesus on the 16th of April, 1882, at her residence near Butler, Bates county, Mo., our be- loved sister, Elizabeth J. Redmon. She was born in Montgomery county, Ky., Oct. 31st, 1882; was married March 21st 1839; and early, in the summer of the same year, both she and her husband were bap-| tized into Christ, and ever since has been a true and faithful follower of our blessed Savior. She was taken sick of typhoid fever and at the end of two weeks of severe suffering, folded her arms on her peacetul breast and slept in the Lord. She sleeps a_ blessed sleep. She was the true wife and faithful stay and helpmate of our dear, bereaved brother, S. P. Red- mon. May the Lord bless him in his sore affliction. Two daughters and two sonsmourn for mother, all of whom are members of the church of Christ. The whole community feel that a child of God has left them and de- plore the great loss; for her hand was ever ready to administer to the wants of the poor and needy, and the weary traveler was always wel- comed at her door. Our sister has gone from us, but we believe she is just gone on before, where the light ever shines, and where sorrow an tears and parting will be no more. Let us, also, be ready. S. B. NEwBILL.

He belongs to one of the first families of that county, and is an old resident. The affair has caused quite a sensation in the county and the general verdict of the people (trom the newspapers) is that he is guilty. It is avery sad! attair if true that a man of Mr.!
