That it was nominated by men in sympathy with the Middle-of-the road element that bolted the state convention in St. Louis, and that the Free Press carries the bolting state ticket over the county ticket. In fact the gentleman to whom we refer is one of the most prominent pouplists in the county and has been aleader since the inauguration of that movement. He said that the true populist of Bates county would not vote for the ticket now being run and that a strong feeling existe among them to call a convention and nominate a ticket. There is no doubting the soundness of the gentleman's argument. The ticket as now being run is from the middle of the road element, and the regulars are not beiog recogoized. But we would suggest to these gentlemen that the proper way to administer a rebuke to the bolters would be to the democratic ticket. Most of you would be simp- ly getting back home. The eratic platform now embraces the the principal reforms for which you contended when you left. Its doors are wide open and you will be ac- cepted without reproach or diacrim- ination.

Wasbingtor, Aug. 3 —The prep- erations are being made to dispatch Maj. Gen. Fitzhugh Lee and the 7th Army Corps to Cuba immediately after conclusion of peace between the United States and Spain. The plans provide for the embarkation of the troops within a week if Spain submits to our terms of peace. For the last two weeks the 7th Corps has been fully equipped by the assignment of sigual officers, engineer Officers and the surgeons to duty under Gen. Lee, and the regiments of his command bave been mobilized at Jacksonville, a convenient point for embarkation. It has been generally uuderstood io official quarters for some time that Gen. Lee would have the honor of entering Havana with the troops of his command. It was presumed that this would be done in the fall, when the campaign in northern Cuba should be begun, bus now that an early peace seems probable, Gen. Lee will goin at the bead of the garison force to administer the mili- tary government pending tbe iustal- lation of the Cuban administration. The troops will be distributed among the large towns cf northern Cuba, notebly Havana, Matanzas and on the southern coset at Cien fuegos. Itis probable that or four regiments of Gen corps will be withdrawn from Jeck- sonville to join the provisioual divis ion under Gen. Wads for Perio Rico three Lee's Bland Will be Chairman.

Governor Stephens has the follow- ing to say of territerial expatsion: “I oppose the annexation of the Philippines on aay terms. We should not add to our citizenship classes of people incapable of ap- preciating our principles of liberty and individual rights. The people of Missouri should resist to the ut- termost the policy of dragging into the Union alien populations of the undeveloped lower races of mankind to be governed by oligarchies,consist- ing of the agents of capitaliste, who wish to hold all such territories in reserve for admission as states hop- ing thus to control the Senate and the electorial college against Amer- ican voters.

We could place our 70 million population in Texas, and then the rger Orders were given Sun-| harmony. The name of Congressman Benton is much talked of for permanent chairman, but a movement to place him in the chain might result ina contest, and it may be that Bland will be made permanent as well as temporary chairman, as there is no candidate who would raise suy ob- jection to him. a Moralists may x prate, and doc- tors prose, and science shout from the house- top, but just so long as the '/> birds sing and the flowers bloom, and: a maiden’s lips (p-——X are cherry-red, and a young i? 4) \ man’s so long the lads on and lassies will kiss—and kiss youth that death lurks upon its deadly germs of dread consumpt harmless as June-time butt ; a all practical | Tt and certain protection and a speedy cure rr tles, I have none of the pains and can do all my work.

Now comes the news that one of the most famous flags owned by the government is rapidly disintegrating from old age and lack of abttention— the flag in which Jobn Wilkes Booth caught his foot as he jumped on the stage of Ford’s theater on the night when he shot President Lineoln. That flag had been made historic even before the tragic scenes of the aseassination. It wav made by the women employed ia the Treasury depariiuent at the time when the male employes organized to defend the cu; ital from the threatened raid of Jubal Early. The pre sentea iho flig to the Treasury guard ‘Iwo nights before the as- Sassivn.ion the Treasury guard gave an eutertainment at Ford’s theater and the flag was employed in the decoration of the box on the right of tke stage. It looked so pretty that tue masayewent asked fora continued loan of it until after the visitof the President, which had becu xunouve-d for the 14th of April | The ront in the flag made by Booth's spur is still plainly visible —Ex women Shafter’s Health Report, Weshingtcn, D C, Aug. 7.—Gen- report to the war d+partment of the health of his command at Santiago, as bulletined by adjutant General Corbin to-night follows: Sintiago de Cuba, Aug. 7.—Adju tant General of the Army, Warhing- ton.
