WEDNESDAY, UCT. 2, 1889 Committee Meeting. Notice is hereby given that there will be a meeting of the democratic central committee of Bates county, at the court house in the city of Butler on Saturday, October 12th, 1889. Every member is urgently requested to be present as business of importance will come before the committee which demands their at tention. D. R. Bravey, W. H. Muap, Chairman. Secretary. BUTLER 00aL FIELDS. The Tues has from time to time urged upon our people the import- ancefof thoroughly prospecting for coal in the vicinity of Butler, and if coal is found in veins of sufficient thickness to pay for developing it, there will not be much trouble to se- cure the capital for that purpose, for if our own people do not care to take hold of the matter, there are plenty of men with means looking for just such investments. The quality of the coal in this vicinity has been thoroughly tested and proves to be of the very best and those of our people who have taken the pains to investigate the matter are satisfied the veins are of suffi- cient thickness to pay to de velop it. When the commercial club took hold of the matter and ap- pointed a committee to look after and investigate it we felt satisfied that something would be accom- plished, but up to date, so far as we are informed, there has been no definite action taken. Now we feel constrained to again urge upon our people the vast importance of an ef- fort in this direction. Coal is being worked north, northwest, west and southwest of Butler, and it would cost but a trifle to prospect and find just the localities that it will pay to mine, Then this land could be leased, or options taken on it and capitalists, with such an induce- ment, would readily take hold and de velop our coal fields. We know we have the coal, we know the quality is first-class. The only question is the quantity and that could be very easily investigated. The date for voting on the water- works proposition hasbeen changed by the city council from the 10th to the 15th day of October. The prop- osition from the best information we can gather will have little oppo sition. Certainly if the people of Butler want a water supply for the town a better or more liberal offer will never be made. We publish the ordinance in full again in the Tres this week, so that all may read it and vote intelligently. The Tres believes Butler will be ben- efited by voting for the proposition. Ifthe city of Butler is expected to keep pace with other live towns such necessary improvements must not be kept out of the town. It is the duty of every citizen to do what he can in an honest and legitimate way to push the city to the front, and thereby raise the standard of property from its pres- ent low ebb to a fair and reasonable value. If this be your desire, then we say by your vote show your faith. J. M. White, superintendant of the Carthage school has announced his candidacy for state superintend- ent of public schools and will allow his name to go before the state dem- ocratic convention. The Carthage Democrat in a summary of the edu- cational labors of Mr. White, among other things says, “For eleven years he has labored in educational ranks of Missouri and through all this time his efforts have been marked with success.” Judge D. A. DeArmond has de clined to accept the position of law instructor at the State University. Weare very glad that this is the judge's decision for while we would like to see him better his condition we would be loth to lose him either as a citizen or from the bench. |Tanner.

In the special election to fill the vacancy in the Third Congressional district of Louisiana, Price, a demo- crat, was elected by a majority of over 6,000. In the same district last November at the general election, the majority was about 200. Some of our good republican exchanges account for this by publishing cock and bull stories about negro bulldoz- ing and election outrages. The true cause: Too much high tax, the fos- ter of trusts, which, aceording to the great republican apostle, are private snaps. Said W. C. Cashnell to a Republi- can reporter: “I never fully realized how near I was to the beautiful be- yond when I jerked the burning fuse out of that gunpowder, Tuesday night, till we took a piece of the fuse which I judge was about as long as the piece that was protruding from the powder can, and setting it on fire, timed it. It took it just twenty seconds, by tho watch, to burn up. There were nineteen sticks of dyna- mite instead of twelve asthe Repub- lican stated.—Nevada Republican. Boulangerism in France isa thing of the past, consequently there will be no revolution at this >. There was a time when Boulanger was strong enough with the masses to have headed a very strong if nota very successful revolution, but by his weak, vacilating course this op- portunity is passed from him for- ever. He was overwhelmingly de- feated at the last election. The anarchist element in France will have to look to another idol, Bou langer is no more. A young man seventecir years of age was arrested by the city marshal of Lamar, for stealing a horse, and lodged in jail. He gave his name as Frank Gallimore. The arrest was make on information received from a postal card dated at Carthage, Mo., and signed by Allemen Shaffer When Mr. Shaffer arrived in Lamar Friday he was taken to jail to see the prisoner, when he was filled with surprise and grief to recognize his| young brother in the horse thief. The young man had lived with lis brother up to about a month ago when he left saying he was going to the Indian Territory. Mr. Shaffer expressed a determination to prose- eute him. The equivocal attitude of Gov. Foraker toward the administration, growing out of Tanner’s removal, | has led toastory among Ohio pol- iticians to the effect that all has not been serene for some time past. There was one man in the Ohio delegation at Chicago last year who violated his instructions for Sher- man and voted for Harrison. He was a candidate for revenue Collector in the Toledo district, and was backed by Foraker. Senator Sherman sup- ported another candidate and forced his appointment. | While the fight was in progress Foraker went to Washington and called at the White House in regard to the matter. Har- rison flatly refused to appoint Fora- ker’s man because he had proved a traitor to Sherman. “But he voted for you,” urged the Governor.

Iam cured of a loathsome disease, eczema, inits worst stage. I tried different doctors and been through the hospital, but all to no purpose.
