De eee ee BUTLER MISSOURI. WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 11, 1889. That whisky and beer is sold and drank in Butler in large quantities we do not believe any citizen will deny. The evidence is on our streets daily and it might be said at all hours of the day or night. The city needs the revenue that could be derived from one or two saloons, no more whisky would be drark than is now being drank without license. The Newberry law, which goes into ef- fect November 1st, prohibits gam- ing of any kind ina saloon, which is the most objectionable feature of open traffic. Local option is not in effect in Butler, having been defeated in the circuit court. The city council by ordinance regulate the saloon. If there is any law against the joints and clubs it has never been enforced. A majority of the people of Butler voted for local option. We haven't local option con- sequently can not prosecute whisky selling under that law. We believe that a majority, if put tothe vote would bein favor of licensing saloons rather than see the present condi- tion of affairs exist. The people of Butler are not morally worse then any other town of its size, neither are there more crim‘na's here, but the refusal to grant a license now is offering a premium for men to vio- late the law. We are not censuring the town covncil, neither are we pre- tending to enter into any e "austive argument of the question, but sim- stating facts for the consideration of the board and the citizens.

From the tone of his letter he does not doubt his qualifications. Mr. Sullivan will first serve out his jail sentence in Mississippi, at hard laber, before he begins an active canvass. The Trues has too much faith in the good sense of the American voter to believe they will ever elect a big burly brute like Sullivan to any office of trust. Sullivan has the assurance of the devil to aspire to congress. Sy The man who occupies the high- eat office within the gift of the Amer- ican people is keeping a_ signal of- fice on the summit of Pike's Peak. Concerning this summer resort, he says: “Sometimes I stand at my window with atelescope. The wind is keen and as cutting asa knife.

One Hundred and Sixty timate is that there were 300 dead and 1,000 injured. The city is still enveloped in a dense smoke and the explosions continue. A large number of houses in the vicinty of the cartridge factory have been de- stroyed and several vessels on the docks have been burned. At the American docks all their ships have been saved, owing to the fovorable direction of the wind. Thus far the efforts of the fire: men, assisted by the military and populace, to subdue the flames have been unsuccessful and the fire is still raging. The docks and shipping have not been touched by the flames the direction of the wind heing con- tinually toward the town since the explosion. A judicial inquiry into the origin of the explosion has been ordered. New York, Sept. 7.—The follow- ieg cablegram was received at the Marintime exchange ut 11 o'clock this morn’ +g.

The council adjourned over to to morrow night when some deffinite action will be taken. The people have full confi- dence that the board will select the very best proposition for the town, and we believe that such a proposi- tion will be voted. The Murat Halstead club of Cin- cinnati requested of John A. Logan, jr., a picture of his illustrous father to hang in the club hall. Young Logan wrote aspiriled and insultirg letter refusing his father’s pictrre to a club named in honorof the man who had assailed that father while living for his acts in the United States Senate. Mr. Halstead comes back with a soothing reply for the young man’s lacerated feelings and says: “It is regretable that his son de- mand attention to the error that clouded the close of his senatorial career, but a generous people would more than once forgive for his fath- er’s sake the impetuous indiscretion of the son of the great general of the western volunteers.” Verily harmony is rife in the re- publican party in Ohio, aad the at- tempt to elect Must Halstead to the U.
