DeJarnett, of East Boone ‘township, announces in this week’s issue as candidate for county judge in the northern district, sudject to the action of the democratic conven- tion. Mr. DeJarnett is an old settler tn Bates county, having located here when the county was in its infancy. He 1s aman of considerable Property, which makes his interests more closely allied with the people. He is well informed in regard to county affairs and would be a safe, rehable man in whose hands to entrust the business of the county. He hasbeen 2 hte long democrat and has never Wavered in his fielty to that Party. The people of the northern district | could not do better than to elect R.! J. De Jarnett to that Position, — | strew its reign of corruption. j Candidate for President, in a speech GOV. CLEVELAND’S DEFAMERS- The Republican party has been guilty in the past twenty years of crimes and trauds that no other polit- ical party was ever known to be | guilty ot, and go unpunished. It has appropriated vast domains, that | belonged to the people, to enrich cor- it has stood by and wink- ury »ed teeming porations ; was be- c tre ed while the pu jing robbed; it has rot | millions of their hard earnings by H unjust taxation ; 1t stole the Presiden- | cy from the people and put a figure }head in the White House.

Now comes the climax to republican littleness and meanness. His public record is taken up and sifted from Sheriff to Mayor and executiye ot a commonwealth and not a flaw could be found, when the republicans say we can not zee our party go down without a struggle, ‘‘plots will we say, inductions dangerous,’’ we will assail the personal character of Gro- ver Cleveland and paint it so black and damning that the most harden- ed and corrupt will turn away their faces and pass by on the other side. To accomplish this they must have agencies fitted tor such a work. The following dispatch will show what the character of the agent was they chose. Washington, D. C., Aug 6.— Among those whom the Chicago Tribune is parading as authority for the truth of the attacks on the private character of Gov. Cleveland 1s -a ‘Mr. Moore, a business man ot Buffalo.” This Moore 1s a_ special agent of the pension office and has been stationed at Buftalo. He was one of Keiter’s witnesses in the late congressional investigation with the notorious Elder and Works, but was not examined, because it became known that the defence had a trans- script of his indictment ior conspira- cy to defame a reputable citizen, and also the evidence to show that he had engaged in another conspiracy to fix a false charge of murder upon another citizen ot excellent standing, and kidnap and imprison him on this charge in Texas to prevent him trom being used as a witness against some ot Moore’s employers. He has been twice presented by grand quries in this district for a criminal offence. His employment by Commissioner Dud- ley is a mystery unless it be to use ; him for political dirty work. Another tool of these defamers is a preacher who disgraces the minis- terial garb he wears, who stumped the State four years ago for Cleve— land, and because the Governor fail- ed to reward him sufficiently for his | valuable services publishes a hatched up story made vut of whole cloth in I i a third class newspaper.
