Every body in Butler knows J. Davis, and are slightly acquainted with the Cat he launched in this city. We sup- pose his Kansas City Cat is a dupli- cate. Still the good work of organizing Cleveland and Thurman clubs in the townships goes on. To-morrow night the democrats will organize a club at Burdette, and we expect to hear the good report that itis a large and enthusiastic one, for the democrats of this section of the county are made of,the right material and are wide- awake. The painters, Bridgford & Drum- mond have done some elegant and artistic work in this city during the summer. They are both masters of the brush and the art. Their work in this city speaks louder than words for their honest work. They use nothing but the best of material. Papering and kalsomining is a spe- cialty with them. Call on them and have your house filled up in superb style. Shop, east side square. The Tres takes pleasure in intro- ducing to the democratic party of this county, M. L. Embree, of Spruce township, whose name appears this week in our announcement. col- umn as a candidate for sheriff. Mr. Embree came to this county in 1849, and no man has ever lived here who is more highly respected by his neighbors and acquaintances. He is a democrat of the old school, never faltering in his allegiance to the same: was one when it tried men's souls to be loyal to that party. He never | before asked for office. If chosen for sheriff he will make an efficient and reliable officer. J- K. Brugler & Son want all the schoo! bonds they can get.

His wife and son were both sick in bed at the time, and Mr Ross had sat up with them until about 10 o'clock at night, when they were both rest- ing easy, and wishmg them a good nights rest he left the room and that was the last seen of him. He was a man it good circumstances and well liked by all his neighbors. He was buried Saturday by the Masons. the services being conducted by Rev. W. A. Walker, of this city. He left the following letter to his family: Dear Wire: I can't hardly write this. I have treated you bad, so bad. I am sorry for you. and do hope that you may be happy in the future. Forgive me, I did not realize how mean I was until now. Don't think of me. Try to forget there ever was a person like me. Oh, if you could it would be better. There are papers in my trunk that may be of value to you. Live for your boy’s sake and make a loving man of him, and don’t be too harsh with him. He is a good boy, and God knows I love him.
