Miss Lizzie Ross, typo on the Democrat, left the latter part of the week for Thayer, Mo, on a two weeks’ visit to her sister, Mrs. Belle Sackett. W. H. Payne, of Nevada, spent Saturday in the city and gave the Ties a friendly call. Mr. Payne was formerly a citizen of this coun: ty but for the past five years has mada his home in Nevada. As it is not considered decent or in order for a candidate for circuit judge to stump the district or to take part ina political campaign, the peoples’ party have let W. O. Atke- son down easy. The farmers cao now begin to spend their wheat and flax money, the recent rain has settled the corn crop for this county, aud there will be no need ot further fear of short corn crop. W. O.

H. H. Cundiff, of Pleasant Hill, was placed in nomination. Aside from the doctor's high tariff, force bill ideas he is reported to be a very clever gentleman, and we have no! doubt will make as good a race as} any other republican that could have been nominated. H. A. Spicer of Clay county, spert a couple of days in the city last week shaking hands with old acquaint- ances. This is his first visit back to Butler in seventeen years. He was surprised at the many changes in this city during his absence, and he could hardiy realize that he was in the same town he had-left 17 years ago, as the old Jand marks had all given way to massive brick business houses and elegant residences. Col. Dalton is on the stump talk- ing Stone. The republicans were in hopes he would sulk on account of being defeated, but democrats cut of the cloth that Col. Dalten was made never waver in devotion to the principles they advocate because of temporary personal defeat. The boomiug Tres would be glad to have Col.
