A number of very prominent gen- tlemen are already “mentioned” as prospective candidates for governor But we may be aliowed to mention that Judge Gibson went to the Salt Lake congress for the sole and ex- presi purpose of doing something for free silver, and that he did some thing for it. And we may also mention that he was introduced as the next governor of Missouri, and that he blusbed and kicked, but didn’t kick as hard as he blushed. — Pleasant Hill Gazette. The St. Clair county Democrat is calling on the county officials and especially the county court for rigid economy in the expenditure of county money. ‘The Democrat says: “Parties who are posted state that already warrants to the amount of $19,400 have been issued against the revenue of the current year. The income for 1897 will be about $20,000, hence it is evident that there will be a deficit of several thousand dollars before January 1, 1898" You can't spend more than you take in and keep up. Burton, the T-year-old son of M. J. Wright. is one of the unlueky boys. Some time ago he broke an arm, afterward that member of his body was refractured by accident, and a few days ago he fell over his wagon and broke his shoulder blade All the accidents in the family are not confined to the boy, however. Twice his father has bean caught and mangled in machinery and a few months Fy at his on fell off a chair an e arm.—Osceola Democrat. Quite a Serious Accident. Sam Jones, a young man working on the C. McKenna farm, about 3 miles south of town, met with a very painful accident Friday, so we learn from Dr. Boulware, the attending physician. The young man in get- ting on a wagon slipped and fell on a double Dfaded-ax fastened to the hounds of the wagon. The injury was in the calf of the leg, the blade of the ax makivg a deep upward cut in the fleen. A large number cf our citizens are attending the Rich Hill fair.

Webb, of Kansas City, after an absence of five years, was in the city Tuesday visiting his parents and shaking hands with friends. He is a conductor on the electric car line, and is doing well.
