"Prohibition. We are ruquested to say that Judge Lowe, Prohibition candidate will speak in Butler, August the 14th, at which time they will hold a County Convention. In Lone Oak township they had a regular ballot for delegates as they did in Howard, and the men getting + the highest number of votes were elected delegates. Pat Murphy of Lone Oak delegation was the only one receiving the entire vote of the township. Pat must be pat with his democratic friends.—Rich Hill Re- view. To admit that labor needs protec- tion is to acknowledge its inferior- lity; it is to acquiese in an assumption that degrades the working man to the position of a dependent and leads logically to the claim that the emplo yee is bound to vote in the in- terests of the employer who provides him with work. There is something in the very word “protection” that ought to make working-men cautious of accepting anything presented to them under it—Henry George. Mr. Streeter says: “Believing as I do that cheap tobacco and whisky are not in the interest of better morals and a higher civilization, but the reverse of it, I am opposed to the removal of the government tax on these commodities.” Here is food for reflection on the part of those who have clung to the hypocritical republiean party with the delusive hope that the only way to attain true temperance and a more lofty sphere of morality was by draping themselves with the party's mantle By reference to our ennouncement column it will be seen thet J. W. Badger, of this city, asks the nomi- nation for prosecuting attorney of this county, subject to the action of the democratic party. For the bene. fit of those democrats in the county * who may not have had the pleasure of forming his acquaintance, we will say that Mr. Badger is a lifelong democrat and a_ brilliant young at- torney, who would make a fear] eS8 and competent Proseeutor, and would prove himself a terror to evil} doers, while the county's business Would be carefully euard detail. ed in every Mrs. W.W.

Warnock, County Clerk’s Office, Butler, Mo. 26-tf Headed for Walker. A meeting of the directors of the Eldorado town company is being held in St. Louis today. There | seems to be no longer any doubt that the road will be built to Walk- er with the hope that it can be ul- timately sold to the ‘Frisco or the Gulf. The town company was not originally organized for the purpose of railroad building, and when the road is completed to Walker, it is probable that their financial ability will be taxed to its full capacity. The idea of building to Nevada has been abandoned.—Nevada Mail. The Bates county horticultural society is making every effort to have a creditable showing made at the St. Louis fruit show this fall. Quite a lot of summer fruit has been secured and shipped to cool depositories in St. Louis. Some money will have to be raised to defray necessary ex- penses. The State horticultural society has agreed to pay all express charges in shipping the fruit, furnish the room, tables, ete., free of cost, but a man will have to be employed to arrange the display. Enough specimens of fruit will also be col- lected to make a display at the Kan- sas City Exposition. We are glad to see eur society taking hold of this matter and hope they will make it a grand success. Geo. E. Cattelin of Mt. Pleasant township announces with us this week and asks the nomination for county surveyor. Mr. Catterlin was formerly Marshal Wolf's deputy and by virtue of Mr. Wolfs promotion to the state Mine Inspectorship be- came surveyor of this county by ap- pointment from Governor Marma- duke. During his stewartship as surveyor of this county Mr. Catter- lin has proven himself to be as effi- cient an officer as the county has everhad. Heisa young man of sober and indursious habits, and in every way fully qualified for the position. Heis an expert at his business and if the party sees fit to nominate him he will faithfully and honestly discharge the duties. In short Mr. C. is a plain and unassum- ing gentleman and an obliging and accommodating officer and we cheer- fully recommend him to the consid- eration of the party favor. Stock of Hardware at Auction. Ihave a large stock of general hardware, which I will auction off on the public square in Butler. The auction sale will be held each Satur- day afternoon until the goods are sold. The articles offered will consist of saws, pitch forks, spades, mowing blades, carpenter's tools, bolts, hin- ges, in short, a large line of first-class hardware, consisting of everything kept in the line.

No instructions were given, but the friends of Judge DeArmond se- lected the delegates. there could be no mistake in the matter, the gentleman who placed the delegation in nomination stated that they were selected in Judge DeArmond’s interest, and on such statement they were unanimously elected. The credentials committee reported the following delegates entitled to seats in the convention: Spruce-—George Price, C. D. Cole, In order that | A DOCTOR'S DOWNFALL. Dr. D. With Stealing a Horse at Nevada. K. Wier Arrested. Charged A very neat capture was effected | by Sheriff W. W. Hill. of Nevada, | Mo., yesterday in the apprehension ‘of Dr. D. K. Wier. charged with horse stealing in Vernon county. ! The history of the ease is a singular ‘one. Dr. Wier located at Nevada |last fall and advertised in the local | papers as being an expert eye and }ear doctor. He was pronounced a | quack by the medical profession, and having failed to secure a lucrative practice removed to Rich Hill three | months ago, where domestic troubles followed, which culminated in the desertion of his wife. Two weeks ago he returned to Nevada, where he jwas discovered by County Clerk Gordon leading a horse out of a pasture near the city. Wier made his escape, and nothing further was heard from him until his arrest, Sheriff Hill learned that the crimi- nal's wife was making this city her home, and, acting on the supposition that Wier would follow, arrived in the city last night. This morning he discovered him in the saloon at W. T. Crabtree, Wm. Tyler, James | 1046 Union avenue and promptly Wilds, Thos. Stark, Jas. Coleman, W. J. Crow. Rockvitte.—W. H. Mead, Jae Bryant, E.T.

This 1s a good chance for pleced him underarrest. The doctor resisted at first, saying he would kill some one before he would return to Vernon county, but after being as- sured that the sheriff was something of a shooter himself he submitted, and was locked up at the central police station. Sheriff Hill will return to Nevada with his prisoner at 9:05 this morning.—Kansas City Times. J. K. Brugler & Son want all the schoo! bonds they canget. Plen- vy of money at the lowest rates. 34tf Last Saturday night Abner H. Taylor, a traveling salesman for a Chicago cigar store, was shot by Edith Cates at Garnett, and died at 4 o'clock Sunday morning. Taylor and another man called at the Cates’ residence, and being refused admit- tance turned to leave, when one of the girls commenced shooting at the men, and Taylor was shot in the back, the ball lodging in the front walls of the abdomen. The woman who did the shooting is about 26 years of age, and does not bear a good character. She was held for murder and will doubtless be sent to the pen. Mrs. Lewis, of Boonville, Mo., a sister of the murdered man, arrived Tuesday and took charge of the remains.—Blue Mound (Kan.) Sun. J. K. Brugler & Son have a large list of fine improved farms for sale cheap and on easy terms. 16tf Notice.

W. W. Graves, County School Com, Obituary. Reynagp, Mo., July 2%, 1888. Mrs. Rose Ford, wife of John Ferd (who is one of our highly respected citizens) died yes- terday, and also her infant babe, one month old, and were buried te-day at the Baptist church-yard, Rev. Potete officiating. Her death was preceded by a long spell of sickness, occasioned by a derangement of the heart and lungs, which caused a great deal of Pain tothe patient sufferer. For more than a week before her death she was unable to lie down and had to sit upright in achair. In this position she calmly looked upon her approach- ing death and made all her arrangements pre- paratory to the change. She selected a text and requested that her funeral be preached therefrom. It was Rev. 4th chapter and i8th verse: ‘*Blesved are the dead which die in the Lord from henoeforth.’’ ‘‘O think of a home over there’’ was the song selected by her to be sung in connection with the funeral services. A very large crowd of friends congregated to pay their !sst tribute of respect to their depart- ed friend. She leaves a husband and two children, mother and father, brothers and sisters, peside a large number of acquaintances to mourn her early death, she being just 26 years one month and a few days old. She was married about six years ago and has been a member ofthe church about two year: She was a good woman and has left a good in behind her, which is worth; must be blessed indeed to die happy, a: ‘tis said thus she died. May she rest in peace in the walks of that new life which she is now realizing. We tender our sincere sympathies to the afflicted family and assure them that we bear in mind the solemn truth that such sorrow is sacred and can only be ce: med by the erasing hand of time, only alleviated by being extended, and u donly by experience.
