After receiving the con gratulations of their many friends the happy couple left for their fu farm, six miles southwest of Butler, where, they entertained a number of friends in the evening with a mag- nificant infair. A number of invited guests were out from town. besides the neighborhood friends.

Mason Howell, until recently edi- tor of the Canon City News, but now one of the staff correspondents o° the Rocky Mountain News, with his wife spent a couple of days in But- ler, shaking hands with his many friends. Mason was raised in this city and we are glad of his success in the west. Quite an array of prominent attor- neys of the state were in attendance at ourcircuit court Friday, among whom we noticed Gen. John B. Hen- derson, W. H. Phelps, Matt G. Rey- | noldsand Jas. M. Lewis, of St. Louis; Judge Jas. B. Gantt, of Clinton: Judge N. M. Givan, W. F. Jarrett. Jas. T. Burney, J. H. Kyle and R. Harrison, of Carthage. The Bates County National bank has had printed and is distributing free to its many friends and cus- tomers, a very neat and convenient little memorandum book. The book contaias a complete calendar for 1891, bears the names of the \officers and gives the capital stock, $125,000. The city council should not be sticklers in regard to passing an or dinance looking to the reformation of the morals of our town, even though the ordinance prohibits the {distribution and circulation of as vulgar and obscene literature as the Kansas City Sunday Sun. Good people of every community look to jits officers for protection from the | vile and vicious, and personal feel jings should not be taken into con- | sideration when a law looking to the |community is asked. By judicious combination, the re- publicans and union labor party cap- tured all the Bates county offices ex- cept the eircuit clerkship, and one judgeship. Asimilar thing might have been done in Barton county, had the alleged republican manag- ers possessed evough political inte!- ligence to animate a convention of defunct lobsters.—Lamar Missourian And still they claim it wasn't a republican scheme.

Only four ‘members of the last Kansas legislature are re-elected. Not a single member of Reed's republican committee on elections, which unseated seven legally elected democrats, was returned to congress by the people. In every one of these cases toe, the democrat turned out was either re-elected, or another democrat elected in bis place. The finest line of albums and dressing cases ever brought to But- ler at the Novelty store. , The protracted meeting at the Ohio M. E. church. is still progress- ing with unabated interest and the church vuilding is not near large enough to accommodate tae audi- ences. In many respects it is the most remarkable revival ever con ducted in our city. Rev. Ned For- est the evangelist is a characteristic man and being well posted in the evils that beset man on every hand makes bis sermons all the more in- teresting, from the fact that he knows the truth and knows just how toapply himse)f to hit sin and cor ruption in all its forms sledge ham mer blows. In the pulpit he does not wear kid gloves or deal in fancy pictures calculated to please the ear and tickle the fastidious, but comes at old Satan and his followers with grape and cannister, solid and hot, and we predict if his health and strength holds out the devil and all his allies cannot prevail against his arguments and soon Butler will have such a revival as she has never wit nessed or experienced before. The Times is on the side of right and we say let the good work go on. We had fondly hoped that after the election we would have cessation of polities, at least for a while, but the campaigu for deputyships | seems to be warmer even than that of the general election. ‘Ve _ trust the committee, into whose hands it is understood the great responsibility of selecting deputies has been plac- led, will use due caution in filling ithis trust so that the cause of the U.
