Fulker son called the meeting to order. J S. Francisco was eleeted chairman and J. D, Allen secretary. The mat ter was thoroughly discussed as to the propriety of nominating a demo eratic city ticket, but no definite conclusion was arrived at. On mo- tion the meeting was adjourned to the 2nd Tuesday in March. D. T. Owens announces this weck as candidate for the office of con- stable of Mt. Pleasant township. Mr. Owens hag been a resident of this township for a number of years and those who know him best have nothing but praise to offer for him. He is honest, sober and industrious, a man who tends strictly to business and would make collections and ac- count for every dollar that was en- trusted in his hands. He has been a life-long democrat, and if the dem- cratic party sees fit to endorse him he will be elected and make an excellent officer. ’ The roads are in fine condition for travel, and Saturday Butler put on her usual city airs. The streets were filled with wagons and the sidewalks were lined with people. The merchants all had a regular pic- nic and made many souls happy with big bargains and better bar- gains than can be had in any other town in the southwest. For cheap goods and groceries every farmer within a radius of fifty miles should come to Butler to do their shopping, as it will save them big money in buying. Again, produce of all kinds brings the highest prices. For district attorney the Record says, “Mr. E. E. Kimball, has earn- ed the recognition by his splendid canvass for governor.” If that be I. in of is of : that Mr. Kimball is to be distric a did canvass.

Not stopping here let us move on to the southwest corner, here we have several valuable lots that are only waiting the hand of enterpris- ing men to erect buildings that will bea payinginvestment. This ground is now Clear of litigation and there is why these lots should stand blank longer. Aiter this is done have uot the least doubt but that Mr. Hart- well will stand back longer, and heand others who own the small frame buildings on tue south side ho reason We will proceed to remove them and place in their stead handsome bricks. Col. N. A. Wade let the coutract Monday for a new flag stone side- walk in front of store house now oc- cupied by Ed. T. Steele. The im- provement will be lasting and sub- stantial. Again the reporter wag reliably informed by a gentleman who knew what he was talking about, that in the early spring two modern and ele- gant business houses will be erected on the burnt corner formerly occu- pied by Geo. A. Todd. Our inform- ant said you can depend upon it this building will be one of the hand- somest eyer erected in the city and will be a lasting monument te the sagacity and business integrity of the gentlemen who propose to put their means in the enterprise. The Trwes notes these changes with pride and hopesto see the boom inaugurated by the above gentlemen taken up by others and ground work of beautifying the business houses go on until the beautiful little city of Butler presents metropolitan airs. Springfield has several cases of small pox. Mrs. Will Deaver of Minneapolis Minn., who has been visiting her parents and friends in Butler for several weeks will return to her home in Minneapolis, the latter part of the week, accompanied by her sis- ter Miss Anna Campbell. R. R. Deacon, our enterprising hardware and implement merchant, opens up the season this week on farming implements, top buggies and farm wagons, and before buying we advise those wanting any of the above articles to call on him.
