The Times says there are thous- ands of dollars in cuuntertfit money }in circulation in and around Kaneas City, and the officers seem power- less to bring the guilty parties be- fore the courts. | The supreme court has handed down a decision which gives the owner one year to redeem lands af- ter its sale for taxes. The decision was rendered on a case which went up from Kansas City. John Winegardner, a good friend and substantial subscriber, called on the Times and renewed. He reported the farmers busy in his neighbor hood preparing for their spring work and sowing oats. Butler is on her feet again. Water flows and the lights burn, and we baye confidence in the business men they will not follow the lead of At- keson to repudiation and municipal disgrace. William Webber,proprietor of the leading hotel at Stewartsville, while in a fit of despondency at St. Joseph Monday placed his neck across the rail in front of an approaching train and his head was severed from his body. There was considerable uneasiness in town Friday occasioned by the report that a tramp at the depot had the small pox, and the people felt much easier when it was positively learned that there was no truth in the rumor. Judge D. W. Cloud, a substantial friend to the booming Trwes, from Adrian, called Saturday and had the Trves sent to his brother, Capt. ®. O. Cloud, at Austin, Texas. The judge is enjoying good health, and came to Butler as a delegate to the convention from his township. Mrs. Chas.

It | is the first fall of water of any con- | sequence for several months and the | ground was getting very dry, wells {and cisterns were low and stock water scarce. The wheat was need ing a soaking and the shower came j none too soon to save this crop. In advising all good citizens to vote the ticket nominated Saturday night for city officers, we have but one motive and that is the best in- terests of the town. To not support the gentlemen nominated is to vote | against paying our honest debts and ‘cripple the prosperity of the city. | Will the tax payers dothis? We don’t believe they will. s For several years it has been the custom to take up collections at the annual school elections for the sup- |port of the Confederate Home at | Higgineville.

Mr. Wyatt has been a | subscriber to the Times almost from | the first issue of the paper. Ia the city election it is either vote Atkeson and repudiation or vote the city ticket and uphold the honor of |the town. Laboring men and busi- ness men, which will you do. We have confidence that neither the la- | boring or business men of this place will willfully go to the polls and cast | their vote to discredit the honor of this bright and prosperous little town. The proposition to extend the city limits ought to carry by a unanimous vote. People who get all the bene- fits of the improvements of the town ought to assist in bearing the bur-| dens. As the limits now extends | quite a settlement on the ridge just | north of the stand pipe contribute! nothing to the city government. | Bring them into town by voting for | the extension. | W. H. Shelton, of Spruce town-| ship, called Saturday and in him the Times will hereafter have a most ex- cellent correspondent. To make his communications beneficial to both the paper and neighborhood, per sons having items ot news will do the Times a favor by communicating the same to Mr. Shelton, who will put | them in proper shape for the paper. | Hand him your items and oblige us. | The primary held at Appleton | City last week toselecta postmaster | resulted as follows: G. A. Pratt 115; J. T. Yonce 86; W. W. Chapel 70; W, B. Nally 48; Scattering 5. Mr. Pratt having received the largest number of votes will be recommeded by Judge DeArmond. We under- stand that he is a very competent gentlemen and his large vote attests his popularity. Heisason of Joel Pratt, of Hudson township, one of the most prominent farmers in Bates County. | Some times a subscriber gets in which he thinks is meant as a direct thrust at him (when in fact the edi- tor has no thought of him) and rushes into the office to stop his paper. If he does not desire to take the paper longer that is his right. but if it is hia intention to injure the editor by discontinuing his sub- scription, let him stick his finger in a bucket of water, pull it out and Jook for the hole aud he will find the result. The city ticket nominated Satur- day, is composed of good citizens who have the best interests of the town at heart. It is well to state that they are progressive men, and under no conditions favor repudia- tion of the city’s legitimate and con. tracted debts. ‘Therefore. we have confidence that the town will be in safe hands if they are elected and if the business men and taxpayers generally desire city affairs well managed they will vote for the tick- et nominated Saturday night. The democrats of Lone Oak town- ship nominated the following ticket for township officers: T. L. Harper, trustee; N. Blough, assessor: W. F. Eckles, collector; J. W. Spry, con- stable; Justices, Claude Walton and Frank Merrit, road overseer, Dist. 1, JH. Little, No. 2, F. Hancock. The Ties congratulates the demo- crats of Lone Oak ou their wisdom and good judgement in nominating such a splendid ticket and it ought to be elected by a rousing majority. The ex confederates will not for- get that a request has been made from headquarters to take up a col- lection at the annual school election for the benefit of the home at Hig- ginsville. Station a man at the poll- ing places in each district and have him pass the hat to every voter. The collections should be returned to the county clerk and he will send the same to the proper authorities. | If there is no confederate in the dis- trict who will interest himself in the/ \cause,then let a member of the G. A. R. pass the hat. Any way dent; forget to take up the collection, any | amount given from 5c to $5 will be highly appreciated, as the home is; badly in need of finantial assistance Batea: county ought to present the! home with $500, end can and will! | ‘ The Peoples |de this much if the friends of the| institation will only take an interest in the matter and look after the col- SPRING GOODS We are showing the most beautiful lines of goods we have ever placed for your inspection and the prices are far less than you have ever bought them.

Mr. Wood was in the city as a delegate to the convention. He was a victim of the late fire in his town and his firm lost their entire stock of goods. He said the insur- ance companies had settled their claim, and as soon as they could se- cure a building would engage in business again. The firm lost over and above the insurance about $1,- 600. Two of. their ledgers were burned which contained many unset- tled accounts.
