~The Butler Weekly Times. yL. VIT1. BUTLER, MISSOURI, WEDNESDAY JULY 14, 1886 Is it Fiction or Reality. | Patriot ot faith is, that several ot the demo- mean the support of Judge | cratic papers in the north part of the inson by the Bates County Dem- | district put the matter in a stronger Somehow or other we share | light than we do.

There are many other sad features to this muddle, but we have given the foregoing suggestions disposed of, believe, that Judge Parkinson is a party to, or even cogmisant of any 2 move to use his popularity to secure Stone and Wade are playing delegates for Mr. Stone. We only parts of Jonathan and David: | know that such a suspicion has got Mr. Wade holds the post | abroad—caused in part, it not wholly, by favor ot Mr. Stone, and | by the singular conduct of the Bates covered that gentleman with County Democrat, that professes to atainous tulsome praise, as iGivinamm mire ay can Ge eee pan of transcendant ab.lity, matters stand, itis doing the Judge a out specifying a thing done to itthe encomiums.

Hhad he openly espoused the cause his benefactor, without disguise, is no democrat who would have surprised —however much they | have deplored an act : that | ee donly be defined as an aid to} opoly by the friction of federal onage. All this could have been | , after the manner of human —but what do we seer Mr. is ostensibly dropped, and gne | half so highly extoled, ostensibly nup, on an ostensible plea of wl pride—and yet, while Judge inson’s bust is exhibited as a wrehead on the prow, the larboard starboard gangways are testoon- | with editorials which scem to say | special class—never mind that urhead ; we've a better one back the hold! That’s the way it looks | many. The democratic press have not med to dictate whom our co- nporary should, or should not | pport—but they have insisted that | contemporary advocacy ot two, have but the one effect to deceive body, and deception eyer leads schism and factional distrust. ad. Another thing. That ough Mr. Stone knows the osten- position ot the Democrat 1s tor dge Parkinson, it does not seem disturb him in the least, and so as the public can see, he 1s satis- dthat a delegate for Jonathan is a into David. It would be folly to p this state of things—we fan the appearance ot these things tould be satisfactory to any con- | Yet we are emphatically opposed 4 On strictly public grounds, We are an anti-monopolist—up one side and down the other, ervation. We would not dare support any the people. We have pretty good evidence that Mr. Stone takes the side of the mo- nopolists. One 1s, when he antagonized Dr. Churchill, who makes no pretentions to being a stump orator, and yet the Dr. took up the rights of the people, against the monopolists, and beat Mr. Stone,largely, in hisown county —Stone having the local press to aid him. }town turned wholly on the point whether the monopolists should dhe- tate the federal appointment, Mr. Stone decided with the nopolists, Not only this, but Mr. Stone became the willing aider ot a scheme which deceived many anti-monopo- lists into aiding the scheme— And it would take six yoke ot oxen to pull them to the polls to vote tor Mr. Stone. . Hence, we believe Mr. Stone will be deteated. mo- 5th.
