The officials at Des Moines, Iowa, are making preparation to get rid of Gen. Kelly and his army by rafting SUSSIDIZING A PAPER. The county court on Tuesday j awarded the printing of the financial statement to the Bates County | Democrat and Bates C sunty Record. at 25 cents per square forthe form er and 24 cents for the latter. The Rich Hill Review bad a bid in the same as the Democrat, 25 square. The law provides that the printing shail be awarded to the “lowest and best bidder.” Taking into consideration the circulation of the two papers and the Review's bid was 40 per cent better than that of the Record’s. eluded both dailyand weekly. And yet a county court, elected on a dem- ocratic ticket by democratic votes, cents per supported by the democratic papers} and opposed by this same Record, so far distorts its ideas of duty as to attempt to subsidize the republi- can paper by public patronage, a pa- per witbout political prestige or any considerable circulation. The south side of the county has the largest democratic vote. It’s papers have always been loyal to the party, and will continue to be no matter how badly they are treated by a so- called democratic court. The Trnes thought that justice demanded that the south side of the county be recognized in this matter and its editor icformed each of the county thera down the Mississippi river. it's a go now! All difterences among democrats have been settled and only the oppesition of the re publican party remains to hinder the passage of the tariff bill. Gov. McKinley has been compell- ed to order out the militia to quell the rioters in Cleveland, Ohio. What's the matter with the gover- nor’s state, according to the republi- cans idea all laboring men who die in Ohio or the east go to McKinley. The William N. Whitely, reaper and mower works located Muncie, Ind., were destroyed by fire Sunday. The buildings covered five acres of ground. ‘I'wo thousand machines ready for shipment, 1,500 almost completed. All the patterns and the costly machinery were also burned. The loss estimated to be $245,000 with no insurance. judges that this paper would make no effort to secure the statement, but instead put in a bid of 80 cents per square for the work. The action of the county court has saved to the county the magnificent sum of one dollar and rewarded the paper that has villified the democrat- ic party and democratic officials for 25 years We wish to do justice to Judge Fix and say that he had the courage and manhood to stand by his party principles in this matter. JUDGE E. A. HENRY. This gentleman, by earnest solici- tation from his numerous friends throughout the county, bas decided to submit his name to the democrat ic convention as a candidate for presiding judge of the county court. Judge Henry has twice held the position of associate judge of our county court, once by appointment from the Governor, and once by election He also served four years as clerk of the court and the knowl edge thus gained of the workings of the effice fits him perhaps as well, if not better, than any man in Bates county for the duties of the import ant place. Judge Henry has lived in Bates a good many years, and we doubt if there is a man in the county better known by our citizens or more thoroughly qualified for the honorable position he seeks For the past five or six years the Judge has resided at Foster, aud has had control of and acted as superintendant of the affairs of the Walnut Land & Coal Co’s interests in that section. He has at all times taken a leading part in the councils of the democratic party, and no bet- ter man could be selected by the convention for the office he seeks. ALEXANDER E. BEATY Authorizes the Times to announce him as a candidate for the office of sheriff of Bates county Mr. Beaty lives at Rich Hill, and is one of the best known men south of the river. For the past two years he bas been operating extensively in the coal business and now hasa large force of men employed in his mines. He is a Virginian by birth, and has lived in this county for a long term of years, and no man can truthfully point to a dishonorable act committed by him. Heis as courageous asa lion when occasion demands, always a chivalrous gentleman, ready to assist the weak and unfortunate. He is a clever, courteous and ac- commodating gentleman and is a man thoroughly competent to transact the business of the office and if nominated and elected would make Bates a thorough and efficient officer. The Globe-Democrat said. watch the return. We did, and we find Sorg, democrat, sweep the third Ohio district by 2,000 over his op- ponent, E. G. Rathbone, republican. McKinley carried the district for governor by a plurality of 560. The Globe-Democrat acknowledges the republican defeat by saying Rath- bone wasa weak and unpopular map.

But if the Ties chooses to say a banner to victory and make the we deem it will be doing but justice to a worthy ani eminent at- torney of this town. Nominate and elect him, and you will find the law against evildoers will be enforced and the guilty criminal brcught to justice. Don’t forget John Francis- co in making up your township delegations. The Vernon County Republican says thename of William J. Hawkins, superintendent of the Nevada pub lic schools, wil! be presented to the republican state convention for the nomination for state school superin- tendent. Prof. Hawkins is very latented man and we do not know that the republicans could find bet- ter material in the state. Sorg 15 Eleeted. Cincinnati, O, May 1.—Returns from the third congressional district show that Paul J. Sorg (democrat) bas a plurality of 2,000 over KE. G. Rathbone (republican). Sorg has over 3,000 in Butler county, while Rathbone carries Preble by 400 and Montgomery by less than 1,000. The soldiers home was carried by Rathbone by 2,000. The democratic gain at Sorg’s home, at Middletown, was over 5,000. Houk’s majority was 2780. There were only two candidates today. The three coun- ties of the district gave McKinley last y:ar a plurality of 560. Co: gressman DeArmond has won much friendly comment because of his bil to permit the president to veto items of appropriation bills without killing the whole measure This would do a good deal toward givi a death blow to putting “riders” on such bills. The proposi- tion is tohave the vetoed measure returned to the house, and then the items may be stricken from them, unless they are voted back by a ma- jority vote instead of a two-thirds vote.— Clinton Democrat. The Record published a long ar ticle from the Warrensburg Standard which states that no third party ticket can be placed on the official ballot. If a third party ticket is run says the Standard, it must go on the ballot sheet as electors. The deci- sion of the supreme court in the Atkeson Lay suit is published to prove the assertion. Mr. Baldwin, the editor, and author of the article is a lawyer, a good republican and ought to know what he is talking about. In a few days Mr. Coxey will pass into history and will be heard of no more. “Army” after “army” of his followers has disintergrated, and Coxey himself is losing his grip. And when it is all over and done with, and when the story is written, how will the historian explain the strange movement? It is of course, a direct growth of the propaganda of socialism. Yet they were Americans who let in the affair. It can not be laid to foreigners; more than this the “armies” came from republican states, Ohio, Penn sylvania, Oregon, Wyoming. These states all gave Harrison a majority in 1888 and the paternal, socialistic idea of protection prevailed there extensively. Can it be that these men got ideas which grew to their present enormity by tracing ‘‘pro- tection” to its ultimate and legiti- mate ded uctions?— Kansas City Star. ‘In a Bad Fix. St. Joseph, Mo., May. 7.—Unless the coal miners strike is settled shortly the city will be without light and transportation facilities. Mr. Van Brunt of the St. Joseph Traction and Light company, operating all street car lines and eleotric lighting power in St. Joseph, says the com- pany has fuel on hand to last a few days only and if coal can not be se- tofore the company will probably be compelled to shut down. Round House Demolished. Huntington, W. Va., May 6.—A terrible hurricane and thunder storm passed over this region about 5 o'clock this evening, doing consider- able damage here. At Central City two miles west of here, the Ohio River railroad shops and round house were completely demolished, with a loss of $30,000. J. H. Burk- hart, the superintendent, was buried beneath the debris, but was extricat- ed and will probably recover. Other employes receiged slight injuries. Many other buil in the town were demoliehed, including the handsome residence of John Crider. cured from sources other than here- | M. L. Cheuvront Leonard, Mo.

Lexington, Ky., May 4.—Colonel Breckinridge arrived here to night and the ovetion tendered him was a royal one. Five hundred of his most enthusiastic followers met him at the train ard made tbe air resound with cheers for the white haired prodigal. Every man in the crowd insisted on shaking hands with him, and it was with difficulty he reached the hotel. Every walk of life was represented in the crowd. Everywhere were seen the Breckinridge campaign buttons, which are like the Cleveland and Harrison buttons, and bear an excel- lent likeness of the famous orator. The Breckinridge people are in high feather to night, the result of the cordial reception tendered their fav orite. ; The campaign will be formally opened to-morrow, when the colonel will deliver his long looked-for speech. The indications are that fully 15,000 strangers will be in town tomorrow, as people are arriving from all over the Seventh district and state. Visions of bloodshed came to-day in rumors that Senator Hodges, edi- tor of The Observer, had threatened to hold editor Moore personally re- sponsible if his paper contained strictures on Hodge's defense of Breckinridge. Editor Moore took early means to suppress bloodshed by placing Hodges under $5,000 bond to keep the peace. On The Verge of Staryation. Peoria Ill, May 7.—The strikers of Peoria County to-day held a meet ing at Bartonsville, and issued an appeal to the citizens of Peorin for aid to enable them to hold out in their fight for better wages. The condition of many strikers is pitiable. They have barely enough to keep body and soul together and are verg ing on starvation. They had nothing ahead when the strike was ordered. It is anticipated there will be a gen- eral response from this city. = KNOWLEDGE Brings comfort and improvement and tends to peronel enjoyment when rightly used.

Amendments to Relieve tnvestors in Corporations and Tax Net Profit. Washington, D. C, May 4.—Sena tor Vest to-day offered amendments to the tariff income tax bill providing for a change in the income tax fea ture of the bill. It does not change the tax of 2 per cent nor the amount at which incomes should be subject to tax, leaving it at $4;000 and up. The object of the amendment is to relieve individual investors in cor- porations of the charge where the net incomes do not exceed $4,000, but to have the profits of the cor poration taxed. It is also proposed to eliminate the inquisitorial features of the in- come tax. Instead of compelling the individual to exhibit his books and papers, the assessor may estimate the amount of the income, and the person so assessed may appear and prove that he has been assessed too high, if such is the case. The changes in detail are sections 59, 60 and 61 stricken out and the following sec tion substituted therefor: “That there shall be levied and collected a tax of 2 per cent per an num on the net profit or income above ordinary working or operating expenses of all banks, banking insti tutions, trust companies, savings institutions, fire, inarine, life and other insurance companies, railroad, canal, turnpike, canal navigation, slack water, telephone, telegraph, express, electric light, gas, water, street railway companies and all other corporations, companies or as sociations doing business for profit in the United States, no matter how created and organized. “That said tax shall bepaid on or before July 1 of each year, and if the president or other chief officer of any corporation, company or associ- ation shall neglect or refuse to file with the collector of internal revenue district in which said corporation. | company or association shall be Jo- cated or engaged in business, a state- ment verified by bis oath or affirma- tion, showing that amount of net profits or income received by said company or association during the whole calendar year preceding the inafter secured, the corporation, company or association making de fault shall forfeit as a penalty the sum of $1,000 and 10 per cent of the amount of taxes due for each month until the same is paid, the payment of said penalty to be enforced as provided in other cases of neglect and refusal to pay penalties and tax- es under the internal revenue laws. “The net profits or income of all corporations, companies or associa tions shall include the amounts paid to shareholders and bondholders or holders of certificates of indebted- ness of any kind or carried to the account of any fund or used for con- struction, erlargement of plant or representing the net annual profits profession, because it acts on the Kid- | made or, acquired by said corpora- ; peys, Liver and Bowels without weak- | ening them and it is perfectly free from | every objectionable substance.

Section 60 provided how the tax on such insti- tutions should be levied and collect. ed. Section 61 provided for the 2 per cent tax upon the interest of stocks, dividends or profits of rail- roads, telephone, gas and like cor- porations and provided how it shall be collected. The intention of these amendments is to prevent double taxation upon incomes received from taxations. COL. C. ‘W. DEAN. SUNSTRUCK IN BATTLE! Iv.
