Wimsatt was in the city on Tuesday and favored us pleasantly and had his dates set ahead. Dame Rumor has it that the Judge will shy his caster in the race for Probate Judge at the allotted time. He is now serving the people of Bates county a second term as As- sociate Judge of the county court, and it can be truthfully said that we never had a better one.
