The democrats of Bates county are well eatiefied witb their county, state, congressional, judicial and! senatorial nominees and will give a united vote on election day. The eastern republican papers are heaping all kinds of abuse on John} Sherman because he favors a full} investigation of the war department tbat the real truth may be known. Bates county republicans are ask ing each other what Internal Reve nue Collector Kellogg has done for his home county. Out of twenty five! deputies Bates did not even geta yanitorship —K. C. Time. We are told that Bates county was not represented in the republi- san judicial convention which nom- inated Judge Lay Inst week. Editor} Oldham was on his way with al pocket full of proxies but didn't) get there in time. A vigorous and thorough cam- paign of the county wili be begun and kept up until election day. Bates ought to be able this year to give the county and state tickets a majority of from 1,000 to 1,200. The committes will push the cam- paign from now until November. The democrats have ncminated a splendid ticket and there is no reason why it should not be elected by an increased majority. Gen. Gomez, commander of the Cuban army, has appealed to the United States for food for his army. He depicts the situation in the province of Santa Clara as most critical and says the army is actually starying. George May, 102 years old, resid- ing in Brown county, Ind., has sued for divorce from his wife. The de-| fendant is his third wife. The cou ple were married eight years ago and have three children,the youngest | being but a few months old. ———— We are hearing good reports from every section of tho county. BUTLER WEEKLY TIMES | of this wai | SWINDLES IN ARMY OONTRAOTS. Major Harvey W. Salmon visited Chickamauga, and in an interview in | the Republic criticises material fur- | nished the government and arraigns the quartermaster’s department. He says that he saw whole regiments at Chickamauga outfi blankets, clothing and teats which wore not worth one third the price charged against the government for them He declares that shoes with paper soles, that could not and did not stand the wear and tear of a week's marching, were issued to | Missouri soldiers and charged for at the rate of $1894 pair. were issued by the thousands, billed to the men at $2.85, and yet when | the regimental officers complained | of their quality the board of survey which examined them admitted that | they were not worth more than 40 cents. The Major did not hesitate to call things by their right names and expressed the hope that the ex- amination would be had with open doors and the perpetrators be brought to justice. ‘I do not hesi- tate to say that I believe this gov- jernment did not get 50 cents in value for any dollar that it expend. ed for clothing and equipment. I believe that no such swindling has been perpetrated in the history of any nation as that which ebaracter- ized the preparations and conduct It will be remembered that Atke- gon six years ago was nominated by the populists for judge. The repub- licans did not make a nomination The republican judicial committee j had the right to fill out their ticket bad they so desired, but they did not avail themselves of that privilege The law provides that where a party at the last previous election bad cast only a certain per cent of the total vote, it could get its ticket on the official ballot only by petition of electors) This provision of law was taken advantage of by Mr. Atkeson, and he circulated a petition himself to have his own name put on the republican ticket The county clerk of Henry county very properly, as the supreme court afterwards held, placed his name on the “electors” ticket, and to that faet he ascribed his defeit. Now the same conditions prevail will Mr. Atkeson try to nom- inate himself on the republican ticket again? The remains of Christepher Co jumbus, which have rested in an urn, placed in a nich in the wall of the Presbytery of the Cathedral in Havana since January 19, 1795, where they were brought from Santo Domingo, that island having been ceded to Franee by Spain, were re moved on last Monday with much ceremony, preparatory to shipment to Spain. Just why that nation now wants to preserve the ashes of Co lumbus is past comprehension to the average American mind. [If it was possible for them to. wreak ven- geance upon him for ever having discovered this continent, then we could understand their motives While living they heaped all the odium and punishment upon him they could for that offense, and now after being dead centuries, his ashes should be allowed to rest in peace in that land he risked so much for. This government should have pre- vented the removal. After annihilating P. K. Wilson, just chewing him up and spitting him out in great gaubs, evidently to his own satisfaction, Atkeson, Democrats are in line working hard | through his Free Press, seeks other | for the success of the whole ticket. | This is very gratifying and we want went after George B.

They asked that the sick soldiers in the Nebraska Blankets|troops be mustered out and sent jbome. Colonel Bryan said nothing about resigning. His many friends all cver the United States will anxiously watch the course of his sickness. Editors of newspapers who have tried to make it appear that ex Gov. William Joel Stone is anxious to be the democratic nominee for president instead of the silver leader, William Jennings Bryan, must feel alittle bit sheepish when the former gover- nor emphatically denies the charge and states, moreover, that he will support Bryan with all his energy. The misebief makers in Missouri have hada hard time lately trying to stir up discord in the democratic ranks. Every attempt has utterly failed. No matter how hard they work in their underhand way, demo cracy will be on top at both the election this fall and in 1900, and with a big majority, for every demo- crat ix working to that ead.—Mexico Intellizencer. We are in receipt of a letter from Hon. F. M.

He adds: “This date comes on Monday The President will be here on Wedoes day, October 12th. Missourians who desire to be here on the latter date, which will undoubtedly be the great day of the entire Exposition, will have two days in which to look through this really wonderful Trans- Missiseippi enterprise.” If we had a Gemocratic president with this war scandal on bis haads, every republican howler in the ecun- try would cry out for vengeance, impeachment, criminal proceedings, and all the rest of it.
