The county court before adjourn- ing last week passed an order in- structing County Clerk Broaddus to notify the township boards in each township in the county, and request that one or more members be dele- gated to meet with the court in But- ler, Monday, Jan. 29, for the pur- pose of conferring with regard to the erection of a newcourt house. As this is an important matter it is to be hoped the meeting will be repre- sentative and well attended. Since the condemnation of the old court house Tue Tres has made it a point to interview a large number farmers in regard tothe erection of a new building, and without a single exception, all were in favor of the proposition. As to the means of building the same the consensus of Opinion was in favor of a direct tax. ‘The Boers fired plugged shells con- taining plum pudding and the inscrip- tion “compliments of the season” into Ladysmith New Year's day. Joe J. Tyler, late teller of the Safety National Bank of Fitshburg, Mass. has been sentenced to five years in the penitentiary for embezzling the funds of the bank. Notice has been served on the ad- ministration through congress, that @ searching investigation will be made into the conduct regarding the relations of the treasury department with the National City bank of New York. Congressman Benton has intro- duced a bill providing for a public building at Nevada and one at Car- thage and appropriating $100,000 foreach. This section is entitled to some of the good things, and as Bates is badly in need of a new court house jet us hear from Judge DeArmond. SUE EEEEEEEeneoniee The commission appointed by Gov. Stephens to locate the asylum for the feeble-minded, selected Marshall, Mo. In our opinion the commission made a wise selection’ Marshall is a splendid town, the county seat of ‘Saline, one of the richest and best counties in the state. Sam B. Cook, chairman of the dem- otratic state central committee, and for the bast year a member of the ways and means committee of the national democratic committee, with headquarters in Chicago, has return- ed home to look after his canvass for the nomination for secretary of state. The Tammany hall organization of the seventh assembly district of New York, passed resolutions which declared that the organization sym- pathize with the Boers in their strug- gle against foreign invasion and oppression, and sincerely cherishes the hope that, notwithstanding the great odds against which they are contending, the God who presides over the destinies of nations will prosper their arms and lead their brave soldiers from victory to victory. Mr. Shackleford, from Missouri, has introduced the following bill in Con- gress, which should become a law: Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That all wood pulp suita- ble for or adapted to the manufacture of printing paper, and all printing paper suitable for or adapted to the printing of newspapers, periodicals or books, when imported into the United States shall be exempt from duty. Some important changes in the time card of the Missouri Pacific rail- road will be made next Sunday. The accommodations for Butler in the change could not be better. They are as follows: Train No. 92 will leave Kansas City at 8:10 a. m., in- stead of 11:10 a. m.,as on current card, meet No.7 at Pleasant Hill, and arrive at Joplin as No. 5 at 2:30 Pp. m., instead of 5:20 p. m., as on current card. This train will connect with the fast mail from St. Louis at Pleasant Hill, which is known as No. 7, and will carry mails and passen- gers from the east and from St. Louis to Harrisonville, Butler, Rich Hill, Nevada, Lamar, Carthage, Webb City, Carterville and Joplin. REPUBLICAN TENDENCIES Judge DeArmond Scores McKinley's Administration. ton special to the Chronicle says: “Representative David DeArmond of Missouri declared in an interview to- port and material strength against liberty andin favor of despotism; ported alliance between the United States and England is morrally de- grading toa free people. and that ing to the rescue of Wall Street was only a faint suggestion of the infamy possible ander the currency bill now pending in the senate. “The federal administration has free government,’ Judge DeArmond continued. “The trend of political thought inthe republican party is from a republic to an empire. from simplicity to display. from economy to extravagance, from justice to a lust for power. we must return at once to the simple paths our fathers trod. “This nation cannot remain half republic and one-half empire any more than it could remain free and one-half slave. Either it will eontinue in essence as well as in name what our forefathers made it— a tepublic—or it will incarnate in es- empire our fathers pledged fortunes and their sacred honor to overthrow in America. The funda- mental question is: Shallthe United States renounce those principles of free government which have made and kept this nation the best and greatest on earth? The McKinley administration has committed the republican party to the aftirmative side of the question. “Judge DeArmond, in calls on all democrats and all lovers of liberty to unite and vote solidly against the revolutionary policies of the McKinley administration.” closing, ITS VOTE ADVERSE TO QUAY The Senate Committee Will Report Against Seating the Pennsy-vanian. Washington, Jan. 5.—The senate committee on privileges and elections voted 4 to 3 against seating Senator Quay. This resolution was offered and defeated : “Resolved, That Matthew S. Quay be admitted asa senator from the state of Pennsylvania, in accordance with his appointment made on April 29, 1899, by the governor of said state.” The members of the committee vot- ing for the resolution were Chandler, Hoar and McComas; those opposing were Burrows, Caffery, Pettus and Harris. Senators Turley and Pritch- ard were paired, Prichard for and Turley against the resolution. Sen- ator Burrows of Michigan, the re- publican who held the balance of power in the committee, voted against Quay. He was the only re- publican who did so. All the demo- crats, and Senator Harris, populist, voted against seating the Pennsyl- vania senator. No definite time was set for the pre- sentation of the committee's report to the senate. The minority will also present a report, and the understand- ing is that the minority shall be noti- fied by the majority when it is ready to put in its report. Senator Bur- rows will prepare the report of the majority and Senator Hoar that of the minority. A.C. Snow, a farmer living near Anabet, Macon county, Mo., was bit- ten by what was supposed to be a mad dog, about a yearago. He ap- parently recovered from the bite and nothing more was thought of the matter until a few days ago when he was taken sick and died of hydro- phobia in great agony. His suffer- ings were terrible and it took five strong men to hold him in bed. rer The democrats want Wm. J. Bryan, the populists want him. the silver re- publicans want him, and thousands of men who voted for McKinley be- fore will vote for Bryan in 1900 be- cause he is frank and honest, open and above board, no rich man’s tool, no Pecksniff. no pretender. Let it be Bryan and McKinley, and watch the Nebraskan run.—K. C. Times. The thriving little town Odessa was dammaged $8,000 by fire Sunday morning.

Hare of the Thirty-third infantry and Lieutenant Colonel Robert L. Howze, of the Thirty-fourth infantry, with all the American prisoners, in- eluding Lieut. Gilmore, have arrived at Vigan, province of South Ilocos, 200 miles north of Manila. Washington, Jan 5.—The war de- partment received the following dis- patch to-day: “Manila, Jan. 5.—Colonels Hare and Howze just arrived at Vigan, Northwest Luzon, with all Amerian prisoners. Their successful pursuit aremarkableachievement. Generals Schwan and Wheaton, now with sep- arate columns in Cavite provinee. Affairs in Luzon, north of Manila, greatly improved.—Otis.”’ THE STORY OF THE CAPTURE. Lieutenant Gilmore and fourteen members of the Yorktown’s crew ea tured April 15. The Yorktown had gone to Baler, 200 miles from Ma- nila on the east coast of Luzon, to relieve the garrison of fifty Spaniards there, who were besieged by insur- gents. Lieutenant Gilmore, Ensign Stanley and boat's crew were sent up the river from Baler bay to commu- nicate with the garrison. Ensign Stanley, who landed at the mouth of the river, reported that he heard three volleys, a bugle call and cheers from up the river, but that the automatic gun in the boat was not heard firing. Stanley later pad- dled to the Yorktown in a canoe. The men captured were Lieutenant J.C. Gilmore, Chief Quartermaster W. Walton, Coxswain J. Ellsworth, Gunner's Mate H. J. Hygard, Sail- maker's Mate Vendgit, Seamen W. H. Rydners and C. W. Woodbury; | apprentices D. W. A. Venville and J. Peterson: ordinary seamen F. Bri- soles and O. B. McDonald; Lands- ! men L. T. Edwards, F. Anderson, D. Dillon and C. A. Morrissey. | It was learned last month from one of the prisoners escaped—A. L. Son- nenshein—that when the launch en- tered the river from Baler harbor under Ensign Stanley's guns, the landing was received with three vol- leys. Fwo of the Americans were killed and two mortally wounded. Every man was hit. Lieut. Gilmore was wounded in one leg and both his feet stuck in the mud.

AGUINALDO SAVED THEM. | Lieutenant Gilmore asked the terms | of release. The insurgents proposed that he procure the delivering to them of the arms and munitions of the Spanish garrison. In return the insurgents agreed to send the Ameri- cans and Spaniards to the Yorktown, The Spanish commander refused the terms, declaring them an insult and a Spanish soldier fired on the sailor ; who brought them. The Americans were taken Isidro, where Gen. Luna them shot. They were marched to the plaza and drawn up in line. Lieu- tenant Gilmore said : “Asan American officer and gen- tleman I protest against being shot with my hands tied.” Aguinaldo interfered and prevent- ed the execution. j When Gen. Lawton approached San Isidro last June the prisoners | were taken to Abia, where they were | placed in cells for two months. Later | they were allowed more freedom. All | the prisoners were given five cents a day with which to buy rice and ba- nanas, virtually their only rations. The persuit of the prisoners has been carried on with remarkable per- severance over a mountainous coun- | try. It was reported a few days ago that the prisoners had been separat- ed and taken to several hiding places to avoid capture.
