Notice is hereby given to the mem- bers of the Bates County Democrat- ic Central Committee that there will be a meeting of the committee at Butler, Mo., on Saturday, April 23rd 1892 for the purpose of determining time and manner of selecting dele gates to attend the several conven- tions of State and district, already called, and to attend to such other business 1s may come before the committee. T. P. Crawrorp, L. R. Aten. 4 Chairman. It would be folly to nominate half or two-thirds of the ticket from Butler and Rich Hill and expect to be successful. Only the very best men need ap ply this time for the county offices and they must be well distributed over the county. “Farmer Dick” Dalton seems to have captured the hoodlum element of St. Louis headed by Mayor Noon anand Col. Ed. Butler and expects to sweep the city. The St. Louis Republic apparent- ly was red hot for Stone until “Farm- er Dick's” boom struck the town, when it suddenly changed fronts and is now in with the Dalton cir cus. Jol. W. J. Stone is making an en ergetic, brilliant aud manly cam paign for governor. He is unques- tionably the ablest man in the race and we believe the democrats of the state will recognize his ability and worth and place him at the head of their ticket. At the head of the democratic state ticket Col. Stone would make one of the most brilliant campaigns ever witnessed in Missouri and carry the ticket to a grand victory in Novem ber. Senator Vest and ex-Governor Houser, of Montana, have been to see Mr. Cleveland and both express themselves as being confident that he will be the nominee of the Chica- go convention for president. Why don’t some good republican nominate Chauncey I. Filley for governor. The old man has been a wheel horse for many ye naughty in his many friends not to give him a chance to immortalize himself on the altar of The Record has always been a faith- ful admirer, and it might bea feath er in the cap of Bro. Austin to start the old man’s boom. SS Among the young men in this state who deserve the lasting grati tude of the democratic party is E B. kwing of the Jefferson City Tribune. He 1s a thoroughly in- formed and reliable democrat, whose advice in the party council, it is wise to heed. Such young men must needs be at the front in party man agement. Mr. Ewing, we learn, is an ardent lover of the field, dog and gun, which Senator Thurman says is unmistakable evidence of a genial and companionable gentleman.—La- mar Democrat rs aud it is sacrifice. Two of the most important posi tions on the coming democratic state ticket have already been practically disposed of. Hon. Alex. A. Leseuer of Lafayette will be renominated for secretary of state. and Hon James NM.

L Harper to the state democracy as candidate for railroad commissioner. | | Mr. Harper is the ouly man who} ever succeeded himself as nominee | of the democratic party in Butes county for county clerk. So satis factory was his four years adminis tration of that office that his party |endorsed him for a second teria. | His unquestioned ability to satis factorily perform the duties of the} | office to which he aspires, together | with his standing at home as an Lou lorable, upright citizen, and a demo | of faithful party | service, will give him standing be | erat of long years H . : | jacquaintance and friendships are | | not confined to Bates county, for he | |has strong friends in nearly every | | county in central Missouri, where |formerly lived, besides having ac | quaintauces and friends allover the | ne |state, from whom he is constantly receiving letters of encouragement | | - assistance in Lis can and proffered vass.

The consular court at Yokahoma has acquitted Lieutenant Hetering ton, of the United States Army. He shot and killed Gower Robinson a young English banker, for being too attentive to his wife. In the judgment of the court this intimacy amounted to criminality, and the husband was justified in committing murder, cold and premeditated—be- coming anassassin and laying in wait | for his victim. The wife, who probably the guiltier of the two, as no mau will make advances to a pure and virtuous wife, is taken back to the arms of her husband and her vin- dication is telegraphed to America. That is, if a woman falls and some one is killed over it, her vindication is complete and she is an liberty to} While the de- spoiler of a howe 15 an uuserupulous Villian and deserves punishment, ret- ribution should be visited alike upou the head of the woman. was seek new victims. | Brother Talmage regaled his con- | gregation yesterday wih the “wit | | are indebted for | ties, } criticism. j proachi jlion in | preciate his services. jreport of the state auditer an ae jcount of the stewardship uf the of- Lesuear aad seivert.
