The midget calf, which was ex hibited at our county fair by O. P. Wilson, of Pleasant Gap, died laet Thursday. It welghed only 8% pounds, but was perfectly formed and appeared to be healthy.

Aggie Myers, the Kansas City woman, convicted of the murder of her husband and sentenced to be hanged Friday, has been granted a respite through Justice Brewer, of the Supreme Court of the United States, who has called for a complete record in the case of the condemned woman. The record in the case is about 800 pages in extent, and its transcription will require several weeks. It 1s expected that Frank Hottman, convicted as a partner in the crime, will profit by theextension of time given Mrs. Meyers. The election is only a little more than a week off, when the voters are expected to render thelr verdict. There fe no reason why Bates coun- ty fe not safely and reliably Demo- cratic ifthe voters will turn out. The Democrats have an éxcellent ticket in the field and we don’t be- Meve any Democrat has a valid ex- cuse for not going tothe polls and voting his ticket strafght. For the good of the party and to rebuke the Republicans who are making all sorte of wild claims about carrying the state, every Democrat ought to do his duty by going to the polis and voting straight. The National Republican organiza- tion is making @ desperate effort to carry Missouri for a threefold object, says an exchange. First, to fortify themeelves in the State to carry Mis- sourt in the next Presidential elec- tlon; second, to retain control of Congress so essential to Republican success two years hence; third, to elect State Senators who will hold over and will contribute to the elec- tion of another Republican U. 8. Senator. This is a delightful pro- gram from 4 Republican standpoint. They are figuring on stay-at-home Democrate; but a Democrat who will stay at home this year isn’t worthy to be called a Democrat. It had been reported that the Re- publican county committee was hav ing the Rich Hill Enterprise sent out over the north part of the county, disseminating the poison of that pa- = |getic,'and will yet the full party| per against Weeks and the rest of the = + a lo county ticket.

Note the stylish appear-' ance of the above garment Hon. Will S. Cowherd at Butler Hon. Will 8. Cowherd, ex Congress- man from Kansas City, the silver. tongued orator of the west, will epeak in Butler next Saturday. Every citizen of Bates county who possibly can should hear him. He will give you a clear insight into national and state issues and will entertain aa well as instract you. Come out and hear a good speech. The State Democratic Committee, on behalf of the Democratic candi- dates, issued a challenge for the Re- publican candidates to meet them in joint discussions all over the State. This the Republican Committee de- clined to do. Senator Stone chal lenged Senator Warner to a series of joint discussions ana this challenge was also declined. The Republican State Committee then adopted the dirty scheme of sending Fire Alarm Flanagan around on Senator Stone’s trail to get up and make a speech as soon as the Senator had finished at his various appointments. Of course Senator Stone did not debate with a man like Flanagan, holding ne offi- clal position, representing nobody in particular, and who {snot answer- able to anybody for any misstate- ments he may make. The Globe- Democrat contained dally garbled reporte of these affairs, calling them “debates” and “joint discussions.” Finally Senator Stone’s patience gave out and he gave Flanagan the skinning which he will not forget even unto the third and fourth gen- erations. This occurred at Elling- ton, Flanagan retired permanently from the game, badly disfigured. He came back to 8+. Louis and had the Globe-Democrat print a story to the effect that he had been forced to sus- pend these so-called joint debates be- cause Senator Stone was concealing from the public his speaking dates, eo Flanagan could not locate him. This was printed in the Globe-Demo- crat twenty-four hoursafter Senator Stone’s vo mplete list ofengagements ‘for the campaign had been publish- No matter what your politica, go to the polls and vote. Let every voter exercise the duty of good eitizonship by going to the polls and voting. Mrs. John A. Silvers left yesterday for Clearfield, Pa., to be with her mother, Mrs. Barbara Hixon, who {e supposed to be on her deathbed. Mrs, Silvers had not seen her mother for 5 years and this is the first tine in 20 years she has been back to the old home. A large number of citizens of south- east part of the county were present at court on Tuesday as witnesses in the seduction case of Frank Seelinger and Miss Kemper. They were dis- missed by the court and ordered to return next Monday when the case will be tried before Judge Cox. T. D. Embree, popular Democratic nominee for Circult Clerk, was a pleas- ant caller on Tuesday evening. He has been over the county pretty thoroughly in his canvas and reports the party conditions as excellent, and says it only remains for Democrats to turn out to the polls to insurea sweeping victory. George M. McKissick was'a pleas- ant caller and favored us. Uncle George is an old timer in Bates and numbers his friends by the score. Some time ago he suffered a partial aralytic stroke, which left his arm in 6 helpless condition, which will probably be permanent, otherwise Uncle George is enjoying good health for a man of his aye.
