DeArmond and other speakers | are advertised. No doubt they will have a good time. There is a story afloat to the ef-! fect that Henry T. Burckhartt, the handsome young editor of the How- ard County Democrat,is about to be- come a married man. Burckhartt is one of those jolly good fellows who like all the girls so well that they do not feel like showing avy partiality. That is probably the reason that he has delayed this im- portant step so long. And be it known there are gray hairs in the Howard county editor's head and many a furrow in his cheek.—K. C Times. Tn view of the departure from our midst of the Rev. J. W. Stockton, late pastor of the Baptist church of this city, the Butler Ministeria Union hereby records its high appre ciation of him both as a man and as a faithful co laborer ia all the high est interests of the city and com- munity. It is with sincere regret that we lose him from our number, as also from personal association and christian work outside the union. By order of the union, Joux B. Hitr, Pres. W. D. Brat, Sec’y. home | September 28th, | the true remedy only. ed by the California Fig Syrup Co. cours |; Judge DeArmond. | It was the good fortune ofthe ed- itor of the Sun to make the acquaint ance of the gentleman whose name heads this article. We accompanied | him during two days of the time which he spent in his canvass in this | county and if the impression upon the people he met was as favorable as that which ne made upon us— |and wesee no reason for thinking otherwise—he is certain to have a very strong support in this county. | There are many reasons why he | should be returned to congress not for the ensuing term alone, but for |as many terms as he mey desire. | One of these reasons is because he can and does represent the people He can because he has the mental ability to understand the wants of the people and also the best means | of attaining the desired ends. His record, both as judge of the circuit court and as a congressman is good and shows that he truly represents his constituents. As a speaker Mr. DeArmond is plain, logical and con- vincing. He does not attempt to arouse an evanescent enthusiasm by the tricks of oratory, but appeals directly to the intelligence of his hearers. As a consequence when he makes a convert to democratic ideas he stays converted. Personally, Judge DeArmond is a cultivated gentleman, temperate, in every respect, with no traces of that false dignity possessed by many public men which seems to say to the commoner people, “I am of a higher order than thou.” The people of this district will make a mistake if they do not give him a big majority, and—well, they are not going to make a mistake in this instance.—Osceola Sun. { Farmers and Pankers. The Butler Uniou circulated as a supplement, the agricultural report issued by the state board of agricul ture several weeks ago. The editor's attention has since been called t> the fact that the supplement con tained the outragous lying(?) report that in this state there were farmers who had actually money deposited in the banks. ‘Lhe Union editor at once says that the statement is a he and that the farmers are too poor to deposit any money in the bank. Af- ter repudiating all connection with the contents of “that supplement” the Union adds: “That sheet will never get circu lation through this paper again un- til it has been rigidly inspected and we know it contains no lying statis- tics.” In other words anything which tends to show that the farmers are not going to the devil, will be strict ly prohibited. The Union publishes an ad. which says that the stockholders and sever al of the officers of the Farmers’ bank of that place are actually farm- ers It might be well to add for the information of the Union editor that among the heaviest depositors jin the banks of Rich Hill are farm- ers.—Rich iil Tribune (Rep.) Judges Reese and Fix, the Demo- cratic nominees from this end of the county will be elected without any trouble. Reese as presiding justice has demonstrated ability and back bone, while no more honorabie, fair ;er or better associate judge than Fix evez scived on the county court, and } as to Jas. S. Hayes, if the Democrats of the northern district do not stand | by him it will be their own loss. Judge Boxley 1s gaining friends | down here each day. The party has |no better campaigner, as the county | had no better prosecutor than gen- eel, fair-minded, fearless Calvin F. | Boxley.
