Ex president Cleveland left the White House last Thursday evening for a ten days duck hunt. Judge Allen, an old and respected citizen of Lamar, Mo, died sudden- ly. He laid down at home to take an afternocn nap, and later wae discoyered dead L. C. Culbertson, of Jerseyville’ Illinois, renews. He writes us that he could not get along without the Tives, as it seems like talking to home folks to receive it. Uncle John Daniels and wife, liv ing 5 miles south of town, are both quite sick. It is to be hoped their iliness will be of short duration and that both will soon be up again. Joe T. Smith will farm the T. D. Rafter place, just southeast of the city limits, this season. He is feed ing 300 head of southwest cattle and the Trwzs hopes to see him meet with abundant success. The next annual meeting of the Modern Woodmen of America will be held at Nevada, August 17th next. It is estimated that from fifteen to twenty people will attend the annual log rolling from this state and Kan- gas. John T. Leabo sends renewal for his subscription. Poor John, he has spent a good many years at Jeffer son City, and no doubt would re joice to again breathe the fresh air of freedom. A present on the 4th of July from the governor in the shape of a pardon would be grate fully received. Lon Dorsey, an employee at the Smelters, Nevada, while on his way home Thursday at noon, during the storm was struck by lightning and instantly killed. The bolt struck lim squarely in the forehead. He was 24 years of age and leaves a wife and babe. The republicans of this township will hold a covvention at the court house the 16th inst to nominate can didatee for the various township of ficers. Our good friend Ed Holt will be a candidate for collector We do not believe the party could make a stronger nommation. Mr. Holt has resided in Bates 26 years, and if qualifications and fidelity to his party count for any thing he will be in the race on convention day. Mrs. M. E. Carver applied to the county court to-day for help. She came here about two weeks ago from Butler. Her husband is out in the country hunting work and she and her fonr children are utterly destitute. They have been living with a widow woman almost as de: titute, northwest of the fair grounds. The court relieved her necessities.— Nevada Mail. F. E. Kellogg, and Dr. W. H. Al- len of Rich Hill were in the city on his way home from Washington City where he had been to witness the inauguration of President Me Kinley. He was an ardent supporter of McKinley for the nomination and was on the right side in the Kerens- Filley fight, consequently Frank's friends look to see him get a fat plum, and he deserves it. HAIR. HUMORS TION. Named Prof. Borron of Rich Hill as the Nominee of the Party For School Commissioner. The democratic county conyention to nominate a candidate for school | commussioner,met at the court house |in this city Satuaday at 1 o clock | Thos. L. Harper, was made chair- man, and Prof. Christian, secretary. The following committees were appointed. Credentials: Chas Smizer, John F. Herrell, Wm Walls, W. T. Kem- |per and G.G Henry. Order of Business: C M. Barkley, R. C. Cole, G. W. Mitchell, James Thomas and H. P. Nickell. In the absence of the committees the four candidates, Borron, Kennett, Richardson and Etter, were extend- ed an invitation to address the con vention, which they accepted and all made interesting talks along the line of education The reports of the committees were then received and after a few dilatory motions were dis posed of. Acall of townchips was had, the first ballot resulted as fol lows: fe Borron, 97; Kennett, 13; Richard son, 43; Etter, 44. It required 99 to nominate. Second ballot: Borron, 115; Rich ardson, 51; Etter, 29; Kennett, 5. This settled the question and Prof. Borron wes declared the nom- inee. Every township except Mingo was represented in the convention, which owing to the almost impass able condition of the roads proves conclusively that the people are in terested in the election of a proper man to manage the public schools of this county. The convention did well in naming a candidate and there isno doubt but that Prof. Borron will prove the right man in the right place. He is a thorough school man and possesses all the qualifications necessary to the discharge of the duties of the office to which he will be triumphantly elected. BUTLER THE TRADING POST. The Advertisements in the TIMES Draws Trade From Far and Near. If there is a merchant in the city who does not believe the statement that the Tres and the live business men of this city who advertise in its columns are doing good work to make Butler the most important trading point in the county, and that the advertisements are having a tell- ing effect in the most remote cor- ners of the county, let him read the statement of W. F. Stephens, one of the substantial farmers of Vinton neighborhood, who was in the city Monday trading for himself and several other families who had sent orders by him. Said Mr. Stephens, “One ef my neigh bors heard 1 was going to Butler today, and sent by me a case of eggs, and also a long list of articles which she wished me to purchase for her.” The reporter suggested that some of the Butler merchants had reduced prices lately and were reaching out for trade. “Yes,” said Mr. Stephens, it, for I know that everybody in my neighborhood, who formerly traded at other places are now coming to Butler to do their shopping.” Mr. Stephens called and renewed for the Trves, and said that his neighbors called to read the paper each week: and that he would not keep house without it To draw trade to this city from all over the county, the merchants have only to make the prices right, bring in their advertisements and the booming Truxs will do the rest.
