BUTLER MISSOURI. WEDN ESDAY JAN, igth, 157. —_—_————_ eee The contest between Hackney and Underwood for the office of circuit clerk of Jasper county, has resulted in the election of Hackney, demo- crat, by an increased majority. —_—_——————, State Auditor Walker has densand- ed an investigation of the charges «ade against him by the discharged clerk, Charles A. Pollock. We will wager a nickel that honest John comes out on top. Four echps will take place during this year. Two ot the Sun aad two ofthe Moon. There will only be ene visable in the United States, and it will be a partial eclips of the Sun and will occur February Sth. August Spies, and Miss Nina Clark Van-Zandt will shortly be married at the county jail in Chicago. Spies is the noted anarchist and now under sentence of death, for being one ot the parties who threw the deadily bombs at the Haymarket massacre. The Kansas City & Colorado railroad has finally gained its suit and will enter St. Louis over the Wabash track. J. S. Orrick attor- ney for the same says the road will now be completed as fast as possi- ble, and will enter St. Louis as an independent line. H. two Our representative, Hon J. tfinton, has been placed on impartant committees, Education and Insurance, the latter of which he is chairman. Mr. Hinton enters upon his new functions like an old band at the bellows, and we prophe- sy he will be heard trom before the end of the session. ba) The probibitionists have besieged the legislature in full torce, and trom Present indications will occupy con- siderable of its time in the discussion of the great question. About the best thing the law-makers can do, in our opinion, i3 to submit the question and let the ballot box decide as to which shall seil the -whiskey—the drug store, without tax, or the high Ucensed saloon, We would like to ask the editor of the Republican who the tellow was that threatened to lick the editor of the Times if it published jim? We will wager a small amount that Bobby either lied or has been listen- ing to some blow-hard, with more muscle than, brains who hasn’! the Courage to *lick’”’ a flee. However, we want it understood that we care sothing for such talk, as we have no aspirations for such notoriety. David Hoffman and James Bell, two men arrested for the wrecking ot a Missouri Pacific train, near Dunbar, Neb., 4 few days ago, have made a full contession of their guilt to the officers. Their object was to derail the train and, in the contusion which would follow, rob the express car, but betore they were ready the train came in sight and they were compelled to take to their heels. The train was badly wrecked. the engineer killed and several persons severely injured. _ The appointment by the Gover: cer, ot our distinguished fellew fownsman, Judge J. B. Gantt: to the position of Regent of the War- ensburg Normal school for a term of six years, was a surprise to that gentleman, as he had no knowledge | of such intentions until this morning when he received the morning Papers and a letter from ludge Nick- erson of Warrensburg, requesting tum to accept the appomtment. The honoris well bestowed, and the ‘ duties will be faithfully discharged. —Clinton Democrat. | COUNTY WARRANTS. There is considerable talk on the } streets that the new county court will refuse to pay any of the outstanding warrants that were not issued cording to law. Acting on this be- | not to pay any more warrants until the matter is finally settled by the court, and has positively refused to take any more warrants on taxes. This beliet is tounded on section 12, article ro of the constitution of Mis- souri, which provides that ‘‘no county, city, town, township, school district or other political corporation or subdivision of the state, shall be allowed to become indebted in any manner or for any purpose to an amount exceeding in any year the income and revenue provided for such year, without the assent of two-thirds ot the voters thereof voting at an election to be held for that purpose ; nor in cases requiring such assent shall any indebtedness be allowed to be incurred to an amount including existing indebtedness, in the aggregate, exceeding five per centum on the value of the taxable property therein, to be ascertained by the assessment next before the last assessment for state and county purposes, previous to the incurring of such indebtedness.’” * * *® There 1s no doubt but that such an indebtedness has been incurred, and warrants have been drawn in amounts exceeding the income and revenue provided for that year, but at the same time the county received the benefit in public improvements. The old court was acting in good faith and can show where every dol- lar was expended, but that does not meet the intentions of the law. A large amount ot these warrants were issued on the treasury atter the levy tor the year had been exhausted, and the only question the new court is hesitating on in fulfilling these contracts is the legai aspect in case. That laying themselyes hable, under a Strict construction the by paying thesej warrants. In an in- terview with a Times representative Presiding Judge Sullens said, in substance, that it was not the dispo- sition of the court to repudiate any just claim against the county, but that they intended to keep within the pile of the law. We are not in- formed as to what course the court wili pursue in this matter, but are assured that whatever conclusion they do arrive at will be on advise ot the very best legal talent obtain- able. the will they not be is, of law, —_—_——— A Farmer Desappears. Considerably excitement was occa- sioned yesterday, when it was repor- ted that W. R. Johnson of New Home township, was missing trom his home. It appears that Johnson ot late had become financially em- barrassed, and his sudden disap - earance, which took place Monday, is causing deep concern by his tam- ily and others interested. It is thought Mr. Johnson is at Ft. Scott. He was interested in the cattle busi- ness with a man by the name of Far- ah, and was thought to be doing a Prosperous business, butit turns out, trom the best information, that such is not the case. It is rumored that he is involved to the amount ot a- bout $4,000. Mr. Tohnson did most of his trading in Rich Hill, but his banking business was done at Butler. He was in the city last week and Paid off several small accounts, since which time he has not been heard from. We hope the gentle. man will turn up all right.—Rich Hill Herald. Goyornor Marmaduke in his mness- age to the legislature recommended that an appropriation of $167,000 be made to put additional room and make other necessary improvements to the asylum at Nevada.

The little boy has been mal- treated to such an extent that physi- cians assert that he will eventually die. It seems to us that the case should be looked into by the grand jury, and steps taken to bring this fiend to justice.—Rich Hill Herald.
