He wants to see the democrat- ic party defeated and does not care by what means thatend is accomplish- ed. How does that suit the aver- age democrat who went into the or- der under the guarantee that his political and religious principles were not to be interfered with. The democratic party, as Mr. Austin says, has been in power in Bates county for nearly 20 years and yet not one word can be said against the management of the county af- fairs that would reflect discredit upon the party. The Record period- ically Senters into a senseless ha- rangue and personal abuse of the members of the county court, and his reasons therefor are traceable di- rectly to a personal grievance be- cause the court will not give that paper the small amount of printing they control. If Mr. Austin’s hide wasn’t as thick as an alligator’s and his sensibilities as hard as granite, he would be ashamed to come be- fore an intelligent public and ask the change of administration on so senseless grounds. Mr. Austin and his Record are but a very small part of the republican party and the sen- sible republicans are heartily dis- gusted with his puerile course for the past 20 years. His course would lead to the inference that if the dem- ocratic party needed his influence it could easily be secured by a dem- ocra.ic court giving him a small amount of printing. guished Statement.

The Democratic Central Commit- tee met at the court house Saturday afternoon, D. R. Braden, president, and W.H Meade, secretary, being present. On a roll call nearly all the members answered present. The date of the county convention to send delegates to the State con- vention at St. Joseph was fixed for May 31st, at 1 o'clock p. m., at the court house in Butler. The date of township conventions was set for May 24th, at 2 o'clock p. m. is of representation was made one delegate for every twenty-five votes cast for Grover Cleveland in 1888, and one for every fraction of thirteen or over. Mr. McDaniel, of Deer Creek, re- signed as committeeman and J. Scudder was elected in his place. W. H. Meade resigned as secreta- ry of the committe and J. Scudder, of Adrian was elected. THE FARMERS OFFIOIAL ORGAN. The little independent daily, mak- er and finisher of the great democrat- ic weekly, works itself into a parox- ysm of mirth over a hypothetical case is which the Times is made the organ of the F. & L. U. order. Mr. Wade tells, in what he considers a huge joke, that which the intelligent reading and thinking class of farm- ers have recognized for a number of years, that the Tres is, in the true sense of the word, the farmers’ or gan. We have ever advocated and labored to protect their interests and promote their welfare, publish- ing at all times what we consider to their interests and for their instruc- tion. We haye from the beginning and do still insist that the farmers asa class, should organize for mu- tual protection and assistance. They should meet and discuss intelligent- ly the great economie questions that are constantly arising and in which they are deeply interested. Tho Times considers it no disgrace, but rathera great honor to repre- sent the intelligent husbandmen of a county like Bates, in spite of Mr. Wade’s sarcasm and ridicule. The substantial farmers of the Wheel rec ognized the friendly attitude of the Times to their interests when at the first county convention by a unanimous vote they agreed that this paper was the proper medium through which to present their views and matters of interest in the lodges to the public. A committee of as substantial and intelligent farmers as can be found in the county, Judge Fred Fix, John H. Bowden and Mr. Shelton, was appointed to wait on the Tres on this matter. We very frankly told these gertle- men that this paper had no reason to change its policy as regards the farmer and his interests and that we would publish any matter for the Wheel that would be of benefit to the order or of interest to the individual members, when such mat- ter did wot conflict with our polit- cal principles. The politicians of the order, who had for their ultimate object the establishing of a new par- ty, preferred a paper they could use in such an emergency, so a few in- dividuals purchased a paper, the policy of which they could control, and endeavored to have it endorsed by the subordinate lodges through- out the county. But in this they have signally failed for the Toms is the true organ of of the farming classes and as such has and shall continue to warn them against any effort to drag their order into a po- litical strife that would mean ruin to them and nothing to be gained in return. So, Mr. Wade, you are at liberty to have all the fun and make all the capital out of this fact, that this paper is the farmers official or- gan and the size of our subscription list shows how they appreciate us. when congressioan Samuel J. dall expired this morning, j were tolling 5 o'clock.

Long, in be half of the Eastern Kansas Banking Company, filed with the county clerk of Linn county a bid for the use of the county funds for two years commencing May 23, 1890, paying for same interest at 8 per cent on daily balances. In his prop osition he reserved the right to bid a higher rate of interest if the board sees fit to let the money by competing bids.

Kerr, Pennsylvanians are still gossiping about the remarkable “open letter” addressed by Henry C. Lea, the Philadelphia publisher to President Harrison. This letter recounts Quay's leadership, his political deals and unscrupulous abuse of the pub- lic service, the acceptance of a Post- master General at Quay’s dictation andthe recognition of the worst elements of the party. “You have thus,” the letter goes, “degraded it (the republican party) to the lowest level, till it no longer deserves or en- Joys the public confidence, and its interest, as well as that of the na- tion, demands its purification by de- feat.” Such a letter coming from “one of our most distinguished re- publicans,” may well excite the lively interest of Mr. Harrison and agitate the Christian spirit of Mr. Wanna- make.—K.

Ran- ust as the bells of a neighboring church Around the bedside were gather- ed the family, the physician and General Wanamaker, watch over the dying man during the night. A few moments before his death he had opened his eyes, and, looking tenderly at his wife, who knelt over him, said in a low tone, “Mother”— a word instinct with all the fondest recollections of their long and hap- py married life, and by which he always called his wife when none but the family were near.
