Si Louis, Oct. 8.—About noon to- day, Judge Lubke of the circuit court was rotten egged in front of the court house by a well known business man, Henry Wiegel. The judge had rendered a decision against Wiegel. He was promptly arrested. At last a man has been found who ean define the dear blanket, free whiskey platform of the party of || Harrison, Depewet al. Hon. Henry voice in the red hot campaign of Watterson denominates it “that fan- -trstical ebullution, that curious re- ppeptacle of dry bones and dead lan- Buages, that comic, that antiquated ‘almanac and last chapter in the gos- (pel of Mammon.” i i The democratic nominees for atate officers in Missouri are aged as follows: D. R. Francis, governor, ; S. H. Claycomb, lieutenant gov- ernor; 41; A. A. Lesueur, secretary (of state, 46; J. M. Seibert, auditor, ; J. M. Wood, attorney general, 38, Robert McCullough, register of ands, 68; T. J. Hennessy, railroad scommissioner, 43; Shepard Barclay, udge of supreme court. 41. ; Charley Morgan the most pop. cular orator that ever expounded the daw and gospel of democracy in Jas- per county, is renewing acquaintance ‘amongst his old admirers. He spoke ‘Wednes: day night at Sareoxie and ‘Thursday night at Belville. Wherey- ferhe goes he it greeted by those who rallied at the sound of his ‘ 1876. Mr. Morgan has not taken an | ‘active part in politics for several | but he comes to the fore to! p his old friends in Jasper.—Jop- | lin Herald. il ee A BAD REOORD- | The Trwes has no inclination to | go into the ghoulish business of pry- ling into the character of any indi- | vidual, but when a man becomes a ;candidate for an important office | the people, whose suffrage he so- licits, has a perfect right and should | know his past record, and especially \his official record, if he has one. Lyman J. Burch,the republican can- | didate for sheriff of this county, has |an official record, every page of which is written in the blood of dead men and records the groans, prayers and curses of robbed and defrauded. widows and _ orphans. Wesley T. Smith, whose record you areall familiar with, was a default- er in office but be it said to his credit that he did not take the bread from the mouths of orphan children and their widowed mothers. We publish in another column certified copies, from the Jasper county court records,of judg- ments against Mr. Burch and his | bondsmen for defalcations in office while he was public administrator of that county. These speak plain- er than any finely written accusa- tions or affidayits that could be made, and will and should forever damn any man in the eyes of honest and law abiding citizens no matter to what political party they may belong. If Mr. Burch or his friends can explain away these records of court and show, in spite of this fear- fully criminating evidence, that Mr. Burch was not a defaulter in nearly, if not every,estate which he administer- ed on,the Times willadmit that he has been a much abused and lied on man. But that record can not be explain- ed away, but will stand asa living monument, marking the blasted hopes of the widow and the orphan made penniless by the perfidy of an official, whose sworn duty it was to guard, shield and protect their property interests. We ask the honest yoters of Bates county, democrats, republi- cans, prohibitionists and union la- borites, do you wanta man with such a record to hold one of your most important offices? Can you, as honest men, give your ballots to such a man who has already violated the most sacred obligations ever en- trusted in the hands of a public offial? SS nRiicenaeenaeemmand STAND FIRM. The Tres is anxious to see every candidate on the democratic ticket elected this year with a handsome majority. We have the votes if the party will do its duty and each voter stand up to the raek like a good and trueman. This is a Cleveland year, a year for reform and the lowering of taxation, and it therefore, be- hooves every democrat to stick all the closer and firmer to his party. It is desired by the national com- mittee that the party come to the polls on the 6th day of November in a solid column and vote the ticket straight from president to coroner. There is no doubt as to the result in Bates county, for the entire ticket, if the democrats will heed the earn- est appeals made by the national and state committeed. Democrais of Bates county, let us do our duty and stand shoulder to shoulder and breast to breast for tht entire ticket. If there is a man of the county tick- et that does not meet your idea, and you have thought of scratching his name, we ask you in the name of the party to which you belong and the principles of which* you rever- ence and hold dear and sacred. do not do it. Vote for the party and not the man. By so doing you will save the republicans the extreme pleasure of shouting and exulting over the defeat of a single man on the democratic party.

It isa preparation of standard merit, made of ingredients, and thoroughly ef- fective in cleansing and purifying the system. For boils, eruptions, etc., it can be relied upon every time. Our own experience with it has been most gratifying and we are glad to give it this endorsement.— Athol (Mass.) Transeript.

The cleansing, Bealing, purifying influences of Hood's Sarsa- pparilla are unequalled by any other medicine, “TI take pleasure in recommending Hood’g Sarsaparilla, for it has done wonders for me. I had salt rhenm very severely, affecting me over nearly my entire body. Only those whe have suffered from this disease in its worst form can imagine the extent of my afMliction. Itried many medicines, but failed to receive Denefit until I took Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Then the disease began to subside, the Agonizing Itch and Pain disappeared, and now I am entirely free from the disease. My blood seems to be thor- oughly purified, and my general health is gteatly benefited.” Lyman ALLEN, Sexton WN. E. Church, North Chicago, Ill. “My son had salt rheum on his hands an@ the calves of his legs, so bad that they would rack open and bleed. He took Hood's Sar- saparilla and is entirely cured.” J.B.

I am now entirely cured of sals rheum; my weight has increased from 16 Ibs. $0135.” Mrs. Auicz Smita, Stamford, Conn. If you suffer from salt rbeum, or any blood Gisease, try Hood's Sarsaparilla.
