W Graves bas decided to make the recs for Judge of the C reuit Court of this the 29th Judi cial circuit before the next Demo (ra tc convention,to be called for the purpose of nominating a candidate fur that office. Mr. Graves is eminently well qual ified to fill that important office by education and experience. He is possessed of a well trained, logical aud judicial mind of even temper muut, of keen discernment. with the dunity and ability to preside as Judge with credit to himself and juctice to all who have business be- fre the court Mr. Graves is one of the foremost awyers of the southwest and hes had such marked success in the prac tic: before the courts as to give him “@ state reputation. But recently the Attorney General called him into the case of the State against the great 8S: Louis Trusts, thus recognizing biw ability as a lawyer. ' The Truzs takes great pleasure in presenting for Bates county the wame of this able lawyer, profound student, and eminent citizen to the vo'ers of the circuit, as a man well quulified, worthy and deserving of tui high honor Politically he is 2 democrat from conviction, never voted any otber ticket and has given that party the be services of bis tife Sinc« his tm jority no campaign of importance hax passed without his means and Yoice upon the stump ably assisting her just cause. Though a party worker, he is far from being a poli- tician, but devotes his time to his pr. -fession. Mr. Graves is too well known to th bar and people of the district to n-ed a further introduction from us FILLEY AND THE “LEADERS ” Our Unele Filley is etirriog the Kerens-Hanna crowd up in a way that is alarming to the pap suckers, but very amusing to all other citi- fens, including the republicans who ere not permitted to get near the trough. He talks of the pie distribu- tore as “leaders” and refers to them as “pledge breakers,” “instruction b enkers,” “the ex-convicts” and “in Gic'ed leaders.” “The Sixth district republican press must be muzzled, for it is speaking out in meeting and @emanding that office brokering boodlers should be suppressed and not put on guard in the future and tne party purified of them in that district. Then what will become of the socalled ‘leaders?’ Hanna and Kerens ought to at once look after this or the ‘leaders’ will be in the p-nitentiary there, as some bave been recently indicted.” Ia answer to the charge that his | course is hurting the party he says: “If Iam hurting the party it will knock the stuffing out of me when it nex! has the opportunity, won't it? Bat say: the ex convicts, the indicted ‘Jerders,’ the state and district in etruction breakers and the individual pledge breakers are not qualified prosecutors nor jurors are they?” The old man is evidently pretty eecure in his position and is not afraid to go before the republicans of the state to have his case tried, but he is determined not to have any “put up” jury on him That trite old saying ‘when rogues fall out honest men get their uss,” is applicable in this case. It is arepublican fight, and they are giving out party secrets in a startling macner and it will be no great won- Ger if more than one breaks into the penitentiary before it is through with. Child murderer Carr attempted to cheat the gallows of its just dues Sunday evening in the Liberty jail by swallowing a quantity of crushed glass. He refused to take an emetic end had to be choked into submis- @on, The date of his execution is xed for December i7th. WOULD SUIT US. Lamar Democrat. Some we+ksa ago the Democrat ; mentioned Hon D A DeArmond as {a good man to succeed Governor | Stephens. His name was suggested | | because the Democrat is anxious to jbave the party hunt out some man in every way well equipped for the | high position, as well as one who is |popular with the people. Such a |man is found in the person of Mr. DeArmond Now come the Butter Times, the Pleasant Hill Local, the Belton Her ald, the Stockton J..urnal, and other good papera in Mr. DeArmond’s Congressional district, and protest against apy suggestion which would take him out o! the balls of Congress, where he is rendering euch valuable service on behalf of his state and the people generally. The Democrat is no stickler. It is satisfied that the democrats of Mr- DeArmond’s district should keep bim in congress as long as he wants to stay and as long as they want him to stay. But we still say he would make good gubernatorial timber, and would like to see him governor. Well. how would Judge James B. Gantt suit you? He is a strong man in every sense of the term, is broad gauged, and popular. What the Democrat wants, and what it is going to insist on having, isa man fitted to be Missouri's Chief Executive. Hon D.A. DeArmond and Judge James B. Gantt are fair samples of the kind of man wanted Now, what have our friendly ex- changes got to say about that? Judge Lay has written an opea letter to the democrats of the dis trict in whicb he disclaims any in tention of becoming a candidate to succced himself It is a frank, open avowal that he was unable to support the “disputed features” of the Chi cago platform and that he voted for Palmer and Buckner, that he recog- nizes that he has no right to ask or expect any honors at the hands of the democratic party. Judge Lay has the confidence and esteem of the people of Bates county, and the members of the bar, without excep- tion, speak in the highest terms of his fairness and impartiality on the bench. He isa bread minded, cul- tured gentleman and will retire from office after completing his term with the respect end confidence of the bar and people. G-orge Wilson, writing in the Lexington Intelligencer of Bryan says: “I saw by acareful study of his face and by comparing it with hia face as I first saw and so quickly recognized it ia the car last year, that a great change had taken place in it in the time that has passed since I eaw him first. The face of last year was almost a boyish face, especially as my first sight of it was whilst he sat in a cheir and did not show bis full height and breadth ef shoulders, and it was such a good natured, benevolent face that it put But the difference between it and his face now reminds m» much in tbe difference o° the J arm. A deputy sheriff from Cele county went to Carthage Saturday night and placed John H Flanvigan under sr rest, based upon the action of the grand jury, which indicted him for bribery in the matter of the civic federation bill before the legislature last winter. Flannigan is a promi nent republican politician, and was called ‘fire alarm Flannigan” when in the legislature a few yeara ego. Kellogg Sure to Get if, Washington, D.C. Nov. 30.—F. E.
