John Sherman says the republican | victory is not permanent. He says) the people punished the republican | party in 1890 and 1892, and now} they have changed, and to say that | they can not or are not likely to turn! | back again is to make a stronger statement than he would care to! venture. He also predicts there will! | be no more radical tariff legislation. | We learned from Parish Nickell, Monday that Wm. Durst, living near Virginia, lost his barn by fire, Sun- day night, also a lot of wheat, corn, oats and some implements. Mr. Durst was at church when the fire| occurred and it is said by those who were at home that the fire origmated in the loft of the barn, but it is not known by what means it was started. He had a small insurance on the barn, but the grain and hay was a total loss. Both the populist party and A. P. A,, through their national chairmen are claiming the honors of beating the democratic party. Mr. Taube-! neck, chairman of the populist party | says, “We did it,’ and the A. P. A.,| through the United American says, “The victory was ours.” One thing | is certain neither the populist or A. P. A. did anythicg toward assisting the democrats, therefore both are right when they claim they contrib } i elected there ‘At Low Prices. McEHIBBENS. HIGH ART MILLINERY Very Low prices.

A small barn, a stack of hay and some fodder, the property of Ed Smith, in the rear of his residence in the southwest part ofjtowp, burn- ed Friday. Itis said the fire was started in the hay by a small boy and match. The loss to Mr. Smith, as his winter supply of horse and cow feed was burned, is quite an item. The dwellings in the neigh- borhood were in danger for awhile, but the fire company soon arrived |and promptly put out the fire. We notice in the vote of Henry County that Clinton geve Judge Ballard, for state senator 611 votes and Judge DaArmond for congress 543. How do the democrats of that township figure out the discrepency in the vote betweer the two gentle- men. It looks very much like there ulist party is that they polled a pret- ty good vote in Bates county. In the election in general the returns show the party has gcne to pieces. The newly elected officers, Stewart Atcheson, W. M. Crawford, J. C./ Hale and W. M. Dalton are busy | making their arrangements to move to town by Jan.
