WEDNESDAY APRIL, 20, 1587. Three men were hanged on last Friday: Edward . Clum, at Cass- ville, Mo., tor the murder ot J. J. White and Ella Bowe; Samuel Jewell, at St. Louis, for the murder ot his wite, and Ben Brown, at Nash- ville, Tenn., for the murder of Frank Arnold, path The editorial convention will meet at Jefferson City June 7th, and in view of the fact that their passes have all been taken up under the proyisions of the new law, many of them are beginning to enquire how about the proposed excursion to the northern lakes. We believe sate and conservative railroad laws should be passed. Of course railroads and other corpo- rations should not be oppressed by legislation, any more than individu- als, neither should thev be allowed privileges denied to all other classes and which are unsate to free gov- ernment. The President, a tew days ago, appointed Gen. Lawton, of Georgia, Minister to Austria. This appoint- ment it is thought will allay the un- pleasant feeling which has existed between this government and Aus- tria for the past two years: over the appointment by the President of Mr. Kelley. oe is Chief Justice David Carter, ot the supreme court of the District of Columbia, died the 17th inst. at his home in Washington City. He was an ultra republican and among the last survivors ot the original abolitionists. His place will be fill- ed by President Cleveland with a good democrat who will hold the office for lite. ———— The first cyclone ot tie season made its appearance at Clairsville, Ohno, Saturday last, and did dam- age tothe amount of about $100,- ovo. The funnel shaped cloud was seen coming and gaye the people of the town ample ume to hide in their cellars and other safe places, and while over a hundred houses were demolished no one is reported killed. maine Governor Marmaduke did per- fectly right in calling an extra ses- sion of the legislature to take action in railroad matters and he should be sustained by every democratic Paper in the state. General Mar- maduke is making one otf the best, safest and most conservative gover Mors the state has ever had. Some newspapers love to truckle to rail- road influence and, to do this, would Sacrifice their ideas ot nght and justice, and even their party prin- ciples. —_——__— Dr. McGlynn must nave been considerably chagrined when at Cincinnati, the Catholics refused to countenance him. Maj. John Byrne ot the Chespeake and Ohio Toad, would not even introduce the noto- tious priest. He said he was a “‘loyal Catholic and had no svmpa- thy with McGlynn and the false dec- trines which he was endeavoring to Promulgate throughout the coun try.’’ This is exactly the case ina Gut shell, loyal Catholics must refuse to endorse McGlvnn‘and the George doctrines which he advocates. Near Lincolnton, Ga., is a spring whose waters are said to have the Properties for which Ponce de Leon was seeking when he discovered Florida. As a proof that the water is conducive to longevity, it 1s said that the inhabitants ina cottage near the spring have all lived to a remark- able old age. The youngest person known to die in the house was go | years old; another lived to be 93; another 110, and the present occa. | pant claims to be 115 years old. i$ just possible the virtue may be in the old cabin and not in the spring. | It} $0 LET US PRAY. | IT 1S COMING. { A building boom is about to | strike Butler unprecedented in the history of the city. A ber of large brick business houses will go; | up in the spring, the work gotten | under way just as soon as the weather is sufficiently settled. This is an assured fact, as enterprising men with money and brains have determined to build them. A num- ber of residence houses are already under way of construction and preparations are being made by a number of otker gentlemen to build the coming Property in Butler is quietly but steadily chang- ing hands, a number of transfers being made each week. Mechanics are coming in seeking work. Al- ready a large number are employed upon the fine brick school house under way of construction, and oth- ers are quietly locating, awaiting the spring building which is apparent to any close observor. All Butler needs to secure the building of a city second to none in the southwest is another railroad or two, and a system for judicious advertising in- augurated to let our possibilities and resources be known to those in the east who own but a small tract of land and are selling out and are de- sirous of securing just such homes and cheap lands as Bates county offers. A new era is indeed dawn. ing upon us and we are glad to sce that the business men of Butler are wide awake and display a readiness to fall into line and help the good work along. An immigration 60- ciety should be formed at once by the business men, and the best means adopted to advertise our town and county where it will do the most good. It has been sug- gested to us that an excursion be secured tor Butler from some eastern point during the month ot May or June, and the excursionists be treat- ed as guests of the city and prepara- tions be made to take them into the country. This we consider a most excellent plan, and are satisfied that if eastern men could be induced to visit Owr county and taxe a peep at our vast resources, the half of which has never been told, that they would seek no turther for homes. Any means to get strangers here is what we want, and we are satisfied to let the country speak tor itselt. CES enenenseneee season. The American consul at Panama warns American laborers not to go to the Isthmus to work on the canal. He says that there are a ereat many unemployed men on the Isthmus, that the hospital! accommodations are next to none at all. and that when a workman falls sick his con- tractor cuts off his pay and leayes him todie or get well the best way he can. The consul might have said turther that the whole Isthmus ot Panama is ene vast charnel house, one importunate and insatiable sep- ulchre. Yellow tever lingers there eternally, which is bad enough, but there is another fever there called the isthmus fever, which is in- definitely worse. Yellow fever at- tacks the heart and the kidneys. If you can keep both alive until na- ture frees itself trom this feyer’s specific poison a cure 1s certain. The isthmus fever attacks the whole physical system. Every organ of the body is assaulted, overwhelmed, killed. A teeling as if every bone had been broken by some mighty trip-hammer is the unmistakable forerunner of death. Not one American in one thousand survives this fever, and he who does suryive itis but ttle better than a dead man all the balance ot his hfe. A strict entorcement ot the Sun- day law for Washington City went into effect Sunday last. TLis law prohibits the selling of merchandise of any kind in the city on the Sab- bath day.

In Mr. Genedict’s salutatory he makes use of the following paradoxical expressions : “There will be nothing of non- al only; the married man’s morals has improved.
