WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 1889 Marshall, Mo., May 31.—A heavy frost fell here last night. Vegetables | suffered. Judge James M. Davis of Chilli cothe, has declared the local option law in Livingston county null and void. We noticed that President Har- rison, by invitation, viewed a grand army parade in Brooklyn, on deco ration day. We are giad to seethat President Harrison is treated with more respect by the G. A. R. than was Preside Cleveland. New Haven, Conn., May 29.—The democratic state committee met to- night for the election of a member to the national democratic committee to succeed the Inte W. H. Barnum. Ex- Congressman French was elected on the sixth ballot. In 1890 every farmer in the Unit- ed States will be visited by a paid officer of government and asked to give the statistics of his farm crops, stock, etc, for the previous year, which is the present one, 1889. To be prepared for the census-taker, be- gin now to keep accurate account of all farm operation, and keep it up through the year. In this way only, can the agricultural statistics of the census report have any real value.— BUTLER WEEKLY TIMES | | WATER-WORKS FOR BUTLER.

Senator Ingalls, in his memorial address yesterday at Independence, touched the great Kansas heart by affirming his position in favor of the repeal of the limitation of the ar- rears clause and of pensions for dis- abled soldiers from the time of their disability, and also declared himself ‘in favor of pensioning every honorably discharged soldier. By the way, what has become of the man who started the report that Ingalls will decline a re-election to the senate in 1891?—Kansas City Star. The flood disaster at Johnstown, Pa., an account of which we publish in another column, is the greatest calamity that ever befell any locality in the United States in her ‘history. Hundreds of People have before been killed by accidents, but the flood in this in- stance numbers its victims by the thusands, and yet all loss of life could have been prevented had the people exercised a little discretion and heeded the warning given those who were in a position to know the danger that threatened the little val- ley. When will people learn to dis- criminate between bravery and fool. hardiness. —_—_—_—_—X—X—s__—_ We want it distinctly understood stood that the proposition to inau- gurate a fair in this county, is not a Butler scheme, but it is for the ben- efit of the whole county and we want everybody to feel interested in the project. Of course it is expected ‘that Rich Hill, Adrian, Foster, Rock- ville, Papinville, Hume and Sprague will all join with Butler, in this great enterprise for the whole coun- ty’s benefit, and lend every assist ance to advance the proposition. There can be but one successful fair held in this county, and to talk of holding two would be suicidal to both, and Butler being the most cen- trally located it is right and proper that the fair shonld be held at this place. “We therefore hope and trust that the cisizens of this coun- ty will stand united in this laudablo enterprise, and push the fair propo- sition this fall toa successful termi- nation. Already a large number of our farmers have favorably expressed themselves in regard to the matter, and if the committees keep the ball rolling, there will be no difficulty in the way and Bates county will enjoy Something that she has long needed. Everybody north south, east and West, pull for the fair. yearly rental on an excellent system of water works, or if the city desires to build and run them, enough to pay interest on a $60,900 SJ mm. Of course this is only an estimate, but Mr. Silvers has been the city clerk for a number of years and thoroughly understands her finances, and he informs us that these are very low estimates of the income. It strikes us that this is an unanswera ble argument to the revenue objec- tion. To get this work under way, the town board should at a very early date call an election for the purpose of voting on the proposition to incorporate as a city of the third class. Then when this is accom plished it strikes us that the way would be epen for the town board to immortalize its individual mem- bers by giving Butler the finest wa- ter works system of any town its size in the state. We need water works and we must have them. —_—_—— ATORNADO IN WEST VIRGINIA. Martinsburg, W. V., May 30.—A tornado struck tive miles east of here yesterday afternoon and after demolishing a vast amount of prop erty passed down the Potomac river, uprooting trees, overturning small vessels and playing havoc generally with small buildings near the banks of the stream. The storm traveled over an area of ten miles and then passed out to sea. Very few trees were left standing along the water front. Those that escaped were twisted out of shape. The house of Martiu Borien, which stood directly in the tornado’s path, was lifted om its foundation. Two women who were in the little frame kitchen were hurled twenty feet and serious- ly injured. A barn in which George Vogel and J. Powell had taken refuge was blown dowa and the two men killed. The damage to crops are great. Charleston, W. Va. May 31— Heavy rain yesterday and last night caused a flood in the tributaries of the Kanawha river. The Chesa peake & Ohio railroad bridge over Cabin creek was carried away, and booms in Elk and Coal rivers, and millions of dollars worth of timber, lumber and railroad ties were swept away. It is feared that a portion of the city will be submerged. The Trivers are still rising. The ther- mometer registers 48. Danville, Va., May 31.—A eyclone from the West struck this chy yes- terday and demolished a six-story building in the course of erection. Robert Britt, James Young, G. J. Jones, Bud Hooper and D. W.
