Little Harry had arrived atan interesting age and was the pet not only of his father and moth- er who idolized him, but of the neighbors. He was a handsome lit- tle fellow, and it was so hard to give him up; but what is fatherand moth- er’s loss is Heaven’s gain; and the parents have the sweet consolation of knowing that they will meet jagain on the other shore. The fu- neral took place at 4 o’clock yester- day. Thanks, Mr. Shannon. The editor of the Trazs was pre- sented last week with asack of flour, gift of JT Shannon & Co.,proprietor of the well known Diamond Mills. The flour was of their best brand, and after giving thesame a thorough test we can say to the public that we found the quality equal if not superior to any flour we have had in our house within the past year, and we take this method of extend- ing our sincere thanks to Mr. Shan- non for the favor, and of heartily and without reserve in recommending this brand to the favor of the citi- zens of Butler and Bates county, as being equal to if not superier to any flour to be found in this city. For the past two months Mr. Shannon has been to considerable outlay in cash in remodeling, repair- ing and putting in new machinery in his mill. He has gone to this ex- pense to fit his mill for the new crop of wheat, and put it in condi- tion to manufacture and compete both in quality of work and price of flour with the best mills of this sec- tion. In view of this fact we think it the duty of our business men as|% well as the citizens of Butler to stand by this home mill, and patronize it. It is right that they should and we believe they will do it. McElree’s WINE OF CARDU! for female diseases SE CARDU Notice. Iwill move my stock of goods August Ist and leave the county.

The Labor Union, a paper edited by M. V. Carrell at Butler in the in- terest of the Union Labor party of Bates county, is laboring under the impression that because its editor is one of the candidates the ticket will be elected by a big majority. These Union Labor leaders are endeavor- ing to confound their organization with the Farmers’ & Laborers’ Un- ion, but when election day comes around they will discover their mis- takes. The impression that the ticket nominated at Butler Tuesday was made by the Wheelers has gain- ed some credence, but it isa mis- take, asthe Farmers’ & Laborers’ Union is non-political, and its laws define this. The members of the F. & L. U. are left free to cast their ballot with any party they choose. Many of the Union Laborites, even, in Osage township and Rich Hill will not vote the ticket, on ac- count of the shameful manner in which they were snubbed in the con- vention Tuesday. The following from Mr. Carroll’s paper serves to illustrate that point: “Butler Union Laborites have no right to complain, as it got four of the nominees and this township got five. Rich Hill did not secure any, and Osage township only got one.” And it should have added that “they nominated him because they thought they could elect him with the ‘nigger’ vote.” The entire tick- et is weak, and if they fail to secure the vote of the F. & L. U. (atid they will), the vote of the party can be give with three figures. The barking of this small party does not cause a hair toraise on the hoary head of democracy,and we anticipate a bigger majority for the grand old lemocratic this fall than ever. So mote it be!—Rich Hill Review. A Few More Left. If you want to be prepared for the first cold wave buy one of our ice cream freezers now, McBuwe & Co. Nevada, Mo. July 25.—F. H.

Ballara “Daily News.” This is a beautiful evening, and we are feel- ing better since the refreshing showers, it put new life in us all and gave us energy to pus» ahead, as prospects for the corn crop is good.

Just here let us say it isour aim to have a little fan at the boys’ expense, and don’t in- tend hurting any one’s feelings. Indeed it is only fan. Mat, Cole and Mr. Covey are good and faith- ful boys, alway try to be on time, never late unless some one else there before. How is it boys?

The names of the boys who visited Fairview church and school house a few nights ago have been handed us, but will not mention them this time, only hope will not repeat it. From the signs of the times this morning, Geo. T. found one recruit for the G. A. R.’s, at least saw the boy in blue this morning, even the census man. Cisero Lenellen, Kilrain, and Chas Thomp- sen, were callers Monday,and looked as if they had been to see their best girls the night be- fore. So Jim may as well ‘‘gum it up.’’ Chickens! Eggs!!

We heard of a prominent man who was nominated in that convention for an office and failed to succeed we sup- pose because he was of a good kind of material, saying they have nomi- nated a very weak ticket. Whenaman who is not worthy wants an office its a good plan for them to keep quiet until the conven- tion meets then get some man to nominate him and his chances are as good as any. Threshing is the order of the day in our township at present, we could use a few more than we have to some advantage as there is a large amount of grain to thresh and too few ma- chines to do the work in due time.
