Risley, candidate for treasurer on the union labor ticket, in his speech at Virginia last week, advanced quite a novel way of re- ducing the surplus in the vaults of the United States treasury. His plan is for the government to estab- lish an agent at each post office in the United States, said agent is to take the surplus and loan the same for the government and in interest the government is to receive 1 per cent, the state 1 per cent and the county 1 per cent. Now doctor, if you are really in earnest about re- ducing the surplus we will suggest a better plan. Just turn it over to the Butler town council. He also said when he was elected treasurer of this great county of Bates, (and we have no doubt he will be) he will keep the county's money in the fire proof safe at the court house so that when the dear people present their warrants for payment he will have the cash ready to hand over the counter. This is another novel plan of doing business, but we suppose the doctor will do what he says, pro- vided some thief does not take a brace and bit during the dead hour of night and remove his surplus from its hiding place in the big iron fire- proof safe. The fallacy of the doctor's theories can easily be accounted for when it is known that he is being groomed by that immaculate friend and bene- factor of the poor man, D. N. Thompson, who in the language of the Irishman “rides in shases and the poor man walks bejazes.” bleeds for the poor man, he is only a director of a national bank, presi- dent of a mortgage loaning institu- director of the union labor party of the county. Butthen he is a good man all the same and if he longs to promote and ameliorate the con- | pition of the down-trodden poor man, let him go on in the good work of reform.

Judge Thos. J. Boswell, associate member of our county court, anda large and prosperous farmer of this county, was instantly killed by light- ning on his farm in Charlotte town- ship, during the slight rain storm Friday evening last,between 5 and 6 o'clock. Atthe time of the accident the judge was cutting corn and when the rain came up, took refuge in a shock of corn. which he had partly finished, for shelter. As the judge had been in the hab- it of spending an evening with neigh- , bors and not returning until a late | hour at night,his absence did not cre- ate any uneasiness on the part of {his mother. But on arising Satur- day morning and finding that he had not returned she became alarmed and immediately sent a young man, | working on the place, in search of him. | In passing through the field where | the Judge had been at work the |man observed his foot sticking | out of theshock of corn where he had taken shelter the evening be- fore from the rain, but becoming frightened, without making an in- ; vestigation ran over to Wim. Simp- |son’s,a neighbor, and related the | matter to him. Mr. Simpson accom- panied the boy back to the field and to his horror on parting the corn, found the boy's story to be only too true. The Judge was sitting in an upright position with his arms fold- ed across his breast, and from ap- | pearances, had not moved from the position taken the evening before. A slight investigation revealed the fact that he had been struck square on top of the head by lightning, and that death had come instantaneous. The neighbors were soon notified and the body removed to the house, where coroner Rice held an inquest on Saturday, the verdict of the jury being in accordance with the above facts. Judge Thos. J. Boswell was 41 years of age and unmarried. He was born in Cass county, but came to Bates when quite a young man, and engaged in farming and stock raising, and being a man of remarkable in- dustry and energy, at the time of his death possessed large real and _per- sonal interests. He was a man of strict integrity and honorable in all his dealings, and in his untimely death Bates county has lost one of her honest and most valued citizens. Asa member of our county court, he was always at his post and dis- charged the duties of the office for the best interest of the people. The funeral took place from the Christian church in this city, of which he was a member, at 2 o’clock Sunday evening, conducted by Eld. Browning, after which the xemains were conveyed to Oak Hill cemetery for burial, followed by one of the largest processions ever witnessed in the city. Resolutions of respect for Judge T. J. Boswell, deceased, from the Cleveland and Thurman club of Charlotte township: Wuerras, It has pleased Ged in his all wise | providence to call from our midst our beloved | and esteemed brother, Judge Thomas J.
