In view ot the coming political campaign, and the fact that every Voter, irrespective of party, in Bates county, 1s interested therein, the Tnaxs will be sent to any address in Bates county trom now until the rst, of December, z886, tor the very low Price of SEVENTY-FIVE CENTS strictly inadvance. Any subscnber may take advantage of this excep- tional low offer by paying up all alrears. ne ene ae ne RNa LR at em version. He says OUR OITY NOMINEES. The democratic party of Butler, in making up tts ticket for the com- ing April election,presents the names | of gentlemen who car. but meet with | the hearty and cordial endorsement, not only of voters of their own party, but of all true citizens who take an interest in the management of the city affairs, and who, if elected, will conduct the business of the city, not for their own aggrandizement, but ably and conscientiously for the best interests of the town. J. R. Jenkins, the regular nominee for alderman of the south ward, is, as our ‘people well know, Circuit Clerk of Bates county, to which office the people have twice elected him, the second time without opposition, and we think there 1s no doubt but that he could hold the office as long as he wished, but he retires at the expiration of his present term of his own yolition. He is a perfect gen- tleman in every sense of the term, courteous and accommodating to all with whom he comes in contact, and, with all, possessed of splendid executive abilities and good business qualifications—just such a man as the people are not atraid to entrust their business into his keeping. If the voters of the south ward do not elect Mr. Jenkins to represent them on the town board they will be standing in their own light. J. W. McVeighand Albert Badg- ley, the nominees for aldermen of the north ward, are both young gen- tlemen of unimpeachable characters, live and energetic business men, and are the unanimous choice of their party, being nominated without op- position. Albert Badgley has been a citizen of Butler for many years, and a successtul merchant until he was forced to retire from business on account ot failing health. He owns considerable property and his busi- ness interests are closely allied with our town. He is the soul of honor, if anybody ever said aught against him, either as to his social qualities or business transactions, we never heard ot it. Mr. McVeigh, while comparatiyely a new man, comes among us with the very best ot recommendations. During his sojourn here of over a year he has made a host of triends and demon- and strated by his steady business habits that he would be a safe min in whose hands to entrust the city affairs. Taken all! in all it is the strongest ticket ever nominated in the city and there can be no reason why every one need not be elected, and that by a rousing majority. _ THE REASONS WHY- The chief reason that the Times loves Henry county and Henry coun- ty men is because one of its chief writers 1s or was a Henry county man. It is nothing strange for him to go back on a home man, as he did in Johnson county, it we do not labor under a great misapprehen- sion .—Democrat. The chief reason the Tres loves Henry county and Henry county men is not for either of the above named causes, but because Henry county is our neighbor; our interests, both in politics and business, are closely allied, and our citizens are related. Bates county could not be benefitted in any possible way by antagonizing Henry, and both can be mutually benefitted by sustaining triendly re- lations, and any man or journal that persistently endeavors to create an unfriendly feeling between the two counties for the attainment ot a selfish personal end, or as the result of a deep laid plot, political or otherwise,is deserving of the calumny ot all the citizens of both counties. We love Henry county men because they are gertlemen, honest and con- scientious in their support of a can- didate of whom they are justly proud, and not because they expect to gain any benefits trom his election, and are not willing to sacrifice so true, noble and worthy a gentlemen as Judge Gantt to carry the county for an unprincipled politician, who would repay them by dishing out federal patronage. The last impu- tation in the above Paragraph we Presume refers to Mr. Davis, fore- man ofthe Times office who once lived in Johnson county snd edited a | democratic journal. While it is a | »matter that does not concern us, we think it due Mr. Davis to give his that he never went { back on a home man, and that the | writer ot the above either wiltully! falsified or had been misinformed. _—_———— We take extreme pleasure in pre- senting for the consideration of the democratic party of Bates county the | name ot Oscar Reeder, ot Grand | River township, candidate tor treas- | urer. Mr. Reeder is a home man in | every sense of the word, having been born and raised in Bates county. He is a sober, honest and conscientious gentleman, and worthy the highest respect and esteem of his fellow man. | His qualifications are ot the very best, having made a decided success in his own business relations, makes | him a sate man to transact business tor the county. No man ever heard a breath of suspicion against Mr. Reeder’s fair name and if nominated he will be elected and make one of the safest men we ever had in office. visit to his radical brother-in-law, H, W, Grantley, of this county, he had an opportunity to kili him but ‘‘didn’t do it.”” We are not so sure about that. Grantley, who barin his poli- tics, is really a clever, gemal gentle- man, is in the field as the Bates County Democrat’s radical candidate for state senator in this district, and if that dose don't proye more deadly than rat poison or shotgun whiskey, Asa killer, Wade may be written down a success. — consider us off. Osceola OU etc aa.) Why, we would ask, in all the spirit of kindness, if Judge Parkinson is the choice of certam gentlemen in the east part of the county, who talk | so loualy and boastingly of his abili- ties and write communications to the Bates County Democrat, do these same gentlemen go over into Henry county and boast that Stone will carry Bates county over the field. as he should, as evidenced by one of these same gentlemen ina siore at Montrose recently. A number throughout the state have taken ad- of democratic papers vantage of the appointment of Col. Childs as minister to Siam to score} Senator Cockrell, holding him en- tirely responsible for the appoint- ment. The triends of Gen. Cockrell say he used his influence tor Musser, and had nothing to do whatever with the appointment of Col. Childs. It is to be hoped that the office hunters will not fall out over so small a thing as a Siam appointment, and that peace and harmony will reign su- preme Belgium has a strike on hand of most formidable proportions. All the miners of the country are engaged in it,and the anarchist element seems to control the movement. numerous outrages have been perpe- trated, such as burning buildings and pillaging shops and stores, and one shopkeeper has been killed while Sioux City ’ detending his prorerty. is about to be ordered out, in which event bloody times may be expected. STRIKE ENDED. The great strike, which has block- | ed the wheels of commerce for the | past three weeks in the west, has at last been settled by arbitration. Jav Gould recognized the order oti Knights of Labor in their Grand Master Workman, T. V. Powderly, and in resuming the movement of trains and employing of hands that preference be given to late employes, whether Knights of Labor or not, except in cases where persons had injured the company’s property, but that no person should be discharged who had taken service with the com- pany during the stnke. Powderly in return ordered the men to go to work, when the freight traffic was resumed Monday morning. The Knights have evidently gained avictory in forcing recognition of the railroad company and demon- strated a great power, but if the ob- ject of the strike was for the pur- pose to torceing the company to reinstate Hall, in Texas, then they tailed in their object. In either event the great part to be played by labor and capital in the future is still un- settled and remains in exactly the condition it did before the strike. Both ot these great forces are made conscious of their power and there is no telling what a day may bring forth. Tuesday morning’s papers say that a misunderstanding was had between Gould and Powderly and the matter 1s still in statu guo, though traffic has been partially resumed. —— Wonder what Mr. Wade meant when he took the pains to goto the regular nominee for alderman of the south ward and tell him that he need not be afraid ot his fighting him, or words to that effect? We must bave stumbled on the truth when we said that Col. Stone held controling interest in the Osceola Sun, at least Bro. Vance winced like he was hurt. Well, well, we presume Stone has a right to estab- lish a newspaper at every cross road if he so desires. But the mene mene has been written and the cy- clone orator 1s doomed. ee Old Emperor William, now hap- pily launched upon his goth year, 1s certainly the, most populr monarch Germany has ever had, and has done more than any other to deserve that popularity. If retain his physical and mental faculties to the same remarkanle degree as he does now, we hope, for Germany’s sake as well as his own, the verable em- peror may live to celebrate his cen- tenial.—Mo.
