Notice is hereby given that the congressional committee of the 12th district will meet in the city of Ne- vada on Thursday, May 29th 1890, at 2 o'clock p. m. for the purpose of naming the time and place of hold- ing the next congressional conven- tion and of fixing the basis of repre- sentation. All members are request- ed to be present. By order of J. P. Newewn. S. P. Francisco, Sec’y. Chairman. Democratic papers in the district please copy. Richard Vaux, democrat, was clect- ed to congress in the third Pennsyl- vania district the 10th inst., to suc- ceed Samuel J. Randall. He received over 8,000 votes. His opponent, a prohibitionist,only received 49 votes. It is hardly probable that there will be a contest in this case or that a republican congress will try to count Mr. Vaux out. Governor Humphrey, of Kansas, positively refused to entertain a proposition from the four hundred resubmissionists to call an extra session of the legislature to submit the question of prohibition for Kan- sas. Consequently there was four hundred mighty mad republicans as- sembled in Topeka on the 23rd, and there is trouble ahead for the repub- lican party. Congressman Harrison Kelley has offered an amedment to the KcKin- ley bill to put lumber on the free list. But, of course, this concession will not be granted. The demand will be treated like Congressman Funston’s plea for free Mexican ores and Congressman Peter’s pro- test against placing sugar on the free list. Kansas is getting about everything in congress that she voted for, and yet, for some reason, she dosen’t seemto be happy.—K. C. Star. The name of Green Walton of Summit township is being discussed by a number of the leading demo-, crats of the county asa suitable man to represent this county in the leg- islature. The Tres has not had an opportunity tointerview Mr. Wal- tonin regard to the matterand therefore could not say whether he has aspirations in that direction or not. But we can frankly agree with the gentlemen who have suggested his name that he is in every way well qualified for the high position. He is one of our largest and most prosperous farmers and stock men, a tried and true democrat and we do not hesitate to say that should he consent to make therace and receive the nomination, he would makea careful, pains-taking law-maker and reflect credit upon himself and his constituents. In old age the declining powers are wonderfully refreshed by Hood’s Sarsaparilla. “It really does make the weak strong. Capt.°J. C. Martin, of Osage aS ship, presents his name for the con- sideration of the democratic voters of Bates county for the office of Re-| corder of Deeds. Capt. Martin is well and favorably known to the people of Bates county, having re- sided within her boundaries for nearly forty years. During all this time he has been highly respected as acitizen anda man. He was a farmer in the eastern part of the county up to a few years ago, when he went to Rich Hill and accepted a position as teacher in the public | Schools of that city. He is a man | of the strictest integrity, the soul of honor and an unfaltering democrat, who has stood by his party standard through the darkest period of its TOWNSHIP CONVENTIONS, List of Delegates to County Conven- tion as far as Heard From. The tewnship convention of Mt. Pleasant township was well attend- ed Saturday. Called to order by John C. Morris, committeeman. Col. Heath was elected chairman but de- clined on account of feeble health and J. R. Jenkins was elected in his stead. J. S. Francisco, secreta- On motion of Thos. J.

He is well qualified to perform the duties of the office to which he as- pires and would be a credit to his party. We are informed by a gentleman of undoubted integrity that a party who expects to be the beneficiary of the Dewey franchise, if it should be extended, in a conversation with him expressed strong hopes that this franchise would be extended, for the reason that he was satisfied that if the bidding was opened up again that other companies would come in and offer to build the same system for much less money than this fran- chise calls for. It is also noticeable that the parties who are the most anxious to get an extension are the ones who have, truthfully or un- truthfully, been accused of holding the defunct stock. The little Daily Water-works rushes frantically to the rescue whenever it is assailed. Thos. L. Harper, our efficient and popular county clerk, asks the dem- ocratic party for an endorsement of his official acts by a renomination for that office. That Mr. Harper has been an efficient and trustworthy official his records as well as the great number of people who have had dealings with him in his official capacity, can bear testimony. Heis at all times courteous and accommo- dating and takes pains to give full and free information of matters per- taining to his office. He keeps an excellent record, the papers in the office in systematic form and he has made a model clerk. He is a far- mer, an old resident of the county and a democrat without blemish. John H. Estill. candidate for rail- road commissioner, spent Saturday in the city, and spoke in the after- noon at the court house to a large audience composed principally of farmers. The St. Louis Republic sums up the race for supreme judge as fol- lows: At the start Judge G. D. Burgess of Linn county was a strong favorite. Mr. Burgess had been twice defeat- ed for the nomination by a combine of all the opposition to him, and it was thought by the wisest calcula- tors that he would have a walk over this year, but calculations of wise politicians scmetimes fail, and in this case they certainly did. Bur- gess is still in the race andthe chances are that he will lead all the other candidates on the first ballot, but just how he is to gain enough strength to give him the nomination it is difficult to see at this time. Judge John L. Thomas of Jefferson county, the champion candidate of the solid southeast forces, with 21 counties from his section of the state, will push Judge Burgess close for first place at the start,and in view of the fact that the southeast hosts never know what it is to quit Judge Thomas can be relied on to be in the race atthe finish. Next in line when the ball opens will be Judge Gantt of Henry county. Gantt has a decided advantage in the race vy reason of his location, to say noth- ing of the fact that heisan acknowl- edged lawyer of ability and a good judge. When the break comes in the voting and the weaker candidates begin to throw up their hands Gantt will gain more rapidly than any oth- er of the leading candidates. “After Gantt comes Judge Macfarlane of Audrian The other candidates should not overlook Macfarlane in their calculations. He is in the race and will make a strong candidate af- ter the first three or four ballots. He will go to the convention with a nest of strong democratic counties in the first and seventh congression- al districts behind him. Old Callo- way, the kingdom, and the homefof Joe Rickey, is where Judge Mac- farlane was born, and the Calloway delegation will work hard for her favorite son. Judge Clay Ewing of Jefferson City will follow next in line, and after him Judge D. P Strat- |ton of Vernon county will show up jin thisrace. The contest will be j extremely interesting from this time on. The St. Louis delegation will probably be divided between Gantt, Thomas and Burgess.

No instructions were given but it is understood that every man on the delegation is a personal friend of Judge Gantt. OSAGE TOWNSHIP.
