At night the air of the town was rent with shouts by marching processions and bands of music. H. O. Maxey, of Johnstown, one of Bates county's popular teachers called Monday. He held the princi- palship of the Amsterdam school last year and has been re-elected to fill the same position the coming year. The national leaders of the popu list party favor endorsing the Chi- cago nominee provided he is all O. K. on silver. We get this informa tion from a gentleman who ought to know. At the same time he does not endorse the idea. Major Armstrong, of Cass county was in the city Saturday. He didn’t come down to make a pop speech or hear cyclone Davis. The major is indebted to the delinquent tax books of this county and was here to day for his home in the east. | Bennett and son Bert, left Monday | P : ‘ z “ |publicans in his township, would Ithem a pleasant visit. = —— = — = = ies | Mrs. A.L Fox and children left; No democrat ip this state will go!

They will be absent about a month. The Trves wishes The musical department {of the Academy under the leadership of Mrs. Clay, assisted by some of best talent in this city, will give a dra- matic concert in the cpera house, Thursday evening June 25th. Dennis Davis, George W. Wilson, Frank Carver, and Jesse and John Nofice, United States prisoners, have been sentenced to hang at Ft. Smith, Arkansas, July 30th, for murders committed in the Indian Territory. John McClenny, aged 19 years was drowned in IJittle Drywood creek near Nevada.Sunday afternoon. With other boys he went to the creek for a swim, the water was 3 to 5 feet deep. He disrobed, and plunged into the deepest place, and was not seen again until taken out dead. Itis supposed he took the cramps when he went under and was unable to rise. Uncle Geo. Alspaugh, who is bad- ly afflicted with rheumatism and a touch of dropsy, left Friday for Eldo- rado Springs which heretofore have greatly relieved him and he has ex- plicit faith in the water. He will come home to spend the 4th and then go back for the summer. Uncle George is one of our best German straighten up matters with the col- lector. Miss Mamie Ewin left Tuesday for a two months’ visit with her sis- ter, Mre. J. W. Stockton at Bunce- ton, Mo. She , will attend the national convention of the B. Y. P. U. held at Minneapolis, before return- ing home. The Trues wishes her a pleasant trip. The infant left on the door step of the residence of W. C. Kennedy, Passaic,a few months ago died Mon- day. The foster parents took the best care of it possible and did all they could to raise it. The child was probably injured by exposure and never rallied from its puny condi- tion. The Jackson county Bland club is making preparations to attend the democratic national convention at Chicago 500 strong, in uniform, to work for Bland’s nomination. The club is willing to take any other Bland democrats in the western part of the state who wish to join the ex- cursion. Rev. J. W. Stockton, of Bunceton, Mo., former pastor of the Baptist church of this city, accompanied by his wife and children, spent last citizens and the Times hopes that he may be permanently benefited by his trip. The Adriap Journal is complain- ing and finding fault with the coun- ty court that it has done nothing for the north part of the county in the way of bridges in the past two years. The Journal is laboring under a mis- take or has been misinformed in regard to the matter. The north part of the county has received more than its share of attention. We speak from the record. But one bridge has been built in the south part during the past two years. A young man from Johnson coun- ty named McCormack, was in town Saturday and enlisted much sym- pathy Hesaid he wasa delegate ta the populist congressional con- vertion and had come to help nomi- nate a candidate. When told the populist were holding no euch con- vention in this place and that he had missed both the date and town he appeared to be dumb founded. That boy from the hoop pole county had better be tied to his mothers apron string, he'll get lost. The K. C. Court of Appeals af- firmed the Judgment of the St. stock yarde, is in the city visiting | relatives and friends for a few days. | W. W. Graves accompanied his | clients, Wm. E. Walton and J. M.| Tucker, to Kansas City Monday, | where they had an important case in the U.S. circuit court. | A dyed-in-the wool Republican de-| clared to a prominent Democrat! Monday that if the Chicago conven- | tion adopted a free silver platform | }and nominated Bland, he and two| brothers, and 20 other staunch Re-| vote the Democratic ticket this fall. | His parting ejaculation was, “My | God! I do feel sorry for R. E. Lewis; | I know he hates to stand where he | does to-day!”—Chuton Eye. Atkeson says in the Free Serre) “Any one who says that there was | any slate-making among the popu- lists, either before or at the county | convention is a yulgar-minded,ignor ant liar.” Andy Hackett, who was secretary of the convention, in reporting the proceedings of the convention in the Appeal says: ‘‘ ‘The powers that be’ may deny the accu-, sation from now until doomsday, but they will never convince any | sane person that there was not some shady work in connection with the matter.” Now, Andy, asouthern gentleman will not brook the lie, under any cir- cumstances, but when the appella- tion of “vulgar-minded” is added to} the deadly insult, it makes it ten times harder to take; then cap the climax by adding “ignorant” and| you have a case of offended honor that coffee and pistols alone can set- tle. We shudder for the conse- quences of Atkeson’s rash act. The great populist orator and statesman, ‘cyclone’ Davis, of whom we have heard so much, was in But- ler Saturday and spoke to a small crowd in the upper room of the new building being erected by C. B. Lew- is, to a crowd of about fifty people. He gave his hearers the old song and dance, of the money power, national banks, corporations, how England controls the United States and the markets, pauper labor of India, China and Japan, etc., etc., nothing new and not a point as to how we were to better conditions. About twenty years ago Mr. Davis was a farmer, then he quit the farm to practice law, and we will guaran- tee he is not neglecting the interests of his clients in running over the country making populist speeches at $10 talk. It is revenue Mr. Davis is after and not the salvation of the populist party. The popu- lists have dubbed him well, “cy- clone,” which means all wind,destruc- tion and calamity. A game of base ball between the Rich Hill and Butler ball teams was played at the race track Sunday evening. The game was won by Butler, the score standing 9 to 10. There was a large crowd of specta tors present, men, women, boys and girls and the cheering could be; heard fully half a mile In this con- nection we want to say that, while| | McKIBBEN S. self when to b ants of the p Bonaparte can be i r We ad see or ing and then won't be disgatis- fied after buying. have the guarantee Y pair.
