S. COMBS, announces as candidate for Cireuit Clerk. He is a young man of energy and ability. He has been a resident all his life of Shawnee township. His father, Sylvester Combs, after follow- ing the fortunes of General John Morgan to the close, came to this county from Kentueky, where he raised a large family of boys all of whom have been acredit to the name. The subject of this sketch is a teach- er of ability and experience, is an ac- tive democrat and at presenta mem- ber of the democratic central com- mittee. He believes in the adage of “The young men for war” and also believes they can best serve the in- terests of their party by being placed in positions of trust. He will make a strong race and would make a very popular candidate on the ticket. CALVIN F. BOXLEY came to Bates county during the re- construction days, when it required nerve to announce political views antagonistic to the dominant party. He had been a Federal soldier, but openly advocated the enfranchise- ment of all Confederate soldiers, and was largely instrumental in their securing speedy justice. Judge Box- ley has hela a number of important county offices and has always been very popular with the people throughout the county on account of his kind and courteous treatment of West Point township, as candidace for Judge | of all who had business withhim.

Mr. Williams wasat the head ofthe party organization last elec- tion and has reason to be proud of the fact that the majorities were in- creased from 200 to 800. He stood ersenally responsible for the bi Dockery day at Rich Hill, which was such a grand success. He was born and raised in Bates-ecounty,eame ot good old democratic stock and has been an active democratic worker since his majority. He has madea success at whatever he has under- tiken, by his energy and push, andis to-day one of our most prominent and influential business men. He is competent and well qualified to fill the office, and if nominated would make a strong candidate and be tri- umphantly elected. The‘bums” are unanimousin their approval of Philanthropist.

Champ Clark has retired from the senatorial contest. He couldn’t get what he wanted, a state primary, so he concluded a bird in the hand (a seat in congress) was worth two in the bush. Mr. Clark is an able man and would fill any office in the gift of the people with credit and fidelity. Prince Henry, of Prussia, is now on American soil. The welcome heis receiving will certainly be all that his royal highness could expect. He will be in St. Louis on next Monday for four hours. James R.

Many people imagine they have heart, kidney, liver and_bilious diseases, when in reality their trouble is not caused by organic irregu- larities other than imperfect digestive action. The pressure of a stomach distended by gas and undigested food is the starting point from which a large number of the serious, well-known and common diseases originate. Heart and Kidney Trouble, Bilious Disorders, Obesity, Jaundice, Dyspepsia, Lumbago, Rheumatism, Gout and Apoplexy often follow disordered conditions of the digestive organs.

Sedalia, Mo., Feb, 21.—An epidem- ic of scarlet fever of a very virulent typeis raging in the vicinity of Brownington, Henry county, and many families are atticted with the disease, Three children of John Bennett are laying dead at his home, Miss Mollie aged 16 years, Elmer 14 years and Albert 12 years, dying respectively on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.

Ice cream and cake may satisfy the palate, but they are far from satisfying to the stomach, which requires that food be nutritious first and nice afterward. By careless eating women pave the way—for stomach “trouble,” and its kindred miseries. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov- ery is confidently commended as a cure for diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. By curing diseases which prevent the assimilation of food it enables the body to be built up and strengthened in the only way known to nature—by food digested and assimilated. “For twelve long months I suffered untold misery,” writes Mrs. Mollie Colgate, of Ran- doiph, Charlotte Co., Va. "No tongue could ex- press the pain that.I endured before I com- menced taking Dr, Pierce’s medicine, I was not able to do anything at all.

Havana, Feb, 25.—Presidential and senatorial electors chosen at the December election met yesterday and | formally elected Thomas Estrado Palma president, Luis Esteves vice- president and the members of the Senate of the island of Cuba. There- sult of the meeting of the electors was a foregone conclusion, as are the deliberations of the electoral college after a presidential election in the United States. .— who was to be the head of the gov- ernment of the island and who were tosit in the Upper House of Congress December 31, when representatives and governors of the provinees were selected, together with the presiden- tial and senatorial electors, at agen- eral election.

Members of the new Congress are nearly all in control of large interests in the island, Farmers Are Needing Wheat. McPherson, Kas., Feb. 24.—€, J. Stromquist, a miller and grain deal- er, Says that there is less wheat in MePherson county now thaninmany lieve that much more will go on the market until the new crop is ready, asfarmersmustehave it for feeding or buy corn, “Thave been surprised,” he said, “at the amount of wheat fed by farmers, ranging from 300 to 1,500 bushels. I know of those who have fed 5,000 bushels already, and of one who, in July, sold 7,000 bushels at 50 cents and has since bought back nearly 8,000 bushels for feeding, Another bought nearly 14,000 bush- els for the same purpose. Of course, these were stockmen. My opinion is that the average among the 2,980 farmers in thecounty isnot less than 500 bushels each, which would mean 1,490,000 bushels. This seems high, but I do not think it is overestimat- ed. If weleave seventy-five counties out of the reckoning and three that use as much as McPherson, it means theState has fed 45,000,000'bushele, or half the 1901 crop.” Mr. DeArmond is a statesman, a democrat and as pure a man as we will ever be able to get in Senator Vest’s place, and if Stoneand Clark’s campaign managers succeed in elect- ing DeArmond the interests of the people will not suffer for want of careful attention.—Marble Hill Press, 3 —aenenonetasaneeenn A dispatch from Manila announces the capture of Cortez, second in com- mand to the insurgent general Mal- var. —_—____..
