New 1904 Styles, Splendid Bargains in Our Semi-Annual Red Ticket Sale Commences TUESDAY, JULY 12th, For months we have been gathering together BARGAINS FOR THIS SALE. Our force of help is now working like ‘‘beavers’’ getting the stock Bates County Republican Cor.- vention Fights Over Patron- age Control. The Republican county convention at the court house last Saturday developeda bitter fight of the “outs” against the “ins”. Doc. Harper was elected chairman, Mr. Funk secre- tary, Austin and Atkeson assistant secretaries. Everything ran as per schedule un- til the resolutions committee made its report, when E. P. Maloney got the floer and proceeded to read the following red hot resolutions, which were offered as an amendment to the committee's report: “We oppose the conduct or con- trol of our party affairs by federal officeholders, and agree with our great leader, Presideat Roosevelt, that our national and state conven- tions and party committees should not be composed of federal officehold- ers, because they tend to forni ma chinessolely to peddle federalpatron- age. We believe the great rank and tile of our party can and will organ- ize and lead it to victory and should alone indicate who shall enjoy the re- wards of faithful party service, We, therefore, as Republicans of the party in this county, instruct all delegates selected at tLis convention to-day to either of the state conventions tocast their votes in said conventions and in all meetings of. said delegates against and use their influence against the election of any individual to any of the honorary positions of the party that now holds an appoint- ive office under the federal govern- ment, and as well as any individual that they may have good reason to beliéve is the tool of those who are attempting to form a combination or machine to control federal patron- age in this state.” C. A. Denton made a strong plea for the adoption of the amendment Geo. P. Huckeby, of Rich Hill, oppos- ed the amendments in an impassion- ed plea for harmony and said the office holders had to stand their ae- sessmente and pay the coste of the campaign and ought to have a voice in the management. Ben Wix tolda skunk story, in which he wascompell- ed to kill the skunk to save his chickens, notwithstanding the stink it kicked up, and applied the moral to the harmony plea. The ays and nays were taken and the chair de- clared the amendment carried. An appeal from the decision of the chair was taken and on aroll call of town- ships the chair was sustained by a vote of 82 to 81. The following delegates were then chosen. To state convention at St. Joseph: Dr. J. R. Colson, W. P. Sargent, O. D. Austin, Joe Whinery, W. P.
