The Arena, The people have come to see that whatever else Mr. Bryan is, he is honest and sincere; as brave as he is iacorruptible; as high-minded as he ie just; as loyal to what he conceives to be the best interests of all the people as be ie relentless in his op- position to all forms of privilege, corruption and Injustice. They see that smong all our statesmen to- day no man is more absolutely free from the tri. ke and subterfages of the demagogue and more candid and frank onall subjects in which the people are concerned than he; while above and beyond all elee, they see and know that no living statesman is more thoroughly under the com- pulston of moval idealism than Mr. Bryan. This, indeed, we believe is the master secret of his power over the brain of America’s consclence- guarded millions. Nembers who have not agreed with him on many questions have come to deeply ad- mire the man because of his trans- parent nobility of purpose, his lofty patriotism and his loyalty to the vision that was the pillar of fire to Washington, Franklin and Jefferson {n the {ufant days of our national history. Mr. Bryanis sound of heart. Of this the millions of America are persuaded, and because they feel and know this to he true they are ready to follow him. Pardoned to See Mother. Omaha, Neb., Dec. 24 —“If you will release my brother long enough for himto go home and see his mother before he dies I will pu’ on his prison stripes and take his place in the cell at the penitentiary until he returns, This pathetfe appeal made to Gov. Mickey at Lincola by G. F. King prominent business man of Roches- ter, N. Y., won pardon for his way- ward brother, Harry King, and the two arenow hurrying eastward fn the hope that they will reach Roches- ter before Harry falls a victim to the dread consumption from which he suffers. Accompanying Mr. King came his wife, W. Ryan and wife, Fred D. Owens and F. P. Evans, all promi- nent fn business and svctal circles in Rochester. Their miss{on was in re- sponse to an appeal from the broth- er that was dying from consumption in the Penitentiary, and thas he longed tosee his aged mother once again before he died. Gov. Mickey at first turned a deat ear to all appeals.’ Harry had been convicted of stealing diamonds from a home in Omaha, and he was sen- tenced fortwo years and a halt. This wasnearly ayear ago. The Governor declined to let the convict leave the prison walle. But when Mr. King offered to take his broth- ere place that he might see his moth- er before he died, the Governor's heart was touehed, and after a per- sonal investigation he granted a full pardon! The party are on thelr way East. Assails Salvation Army. Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 24.—The Sal ve- tion Army is criticized in vigorous terms by E.

Joda Hamilton Murdered an Fntire Family Near Hous- ton, Mo, NEPHEW OF GEORGE AND WILL TAYLOR. Springfield, Mo., Dec.—“I shot Parsons with a single-barrelled shot gun, The shot did not kill him and I beat him to death with the gun- barrel. Then I knocked his wife on the head and ‘thought! had killed her but she came to and I beat her on the bead until I had finished her. Then I killed their oldest boy by cut- ting his throat with a jack-knife, and the next oldest boy the same way, andthe youngest! killed by knocking him on the head with the gun. Then I went to church’ and af- terwards took my girl home. Then I borrowed a horse and rode to the place where I had left the bodles to gee if any of them were still allve. I loaded the bodies {nto the wagon and drove to theriver and threw them all {n.” Briefly told, that {s the confession Joda Hamilton made to the jury that convicted him of the murder of the Parsons family near Houston, Mo., last October and for which crime the 20-year old degenerate was hanyed last Friday. Joda Hamilton fs & nephew of George and Will Taylor, whose bru- tal murder of the Meeks family near Browning, Mo., several years ago was almost a counterpart of the Parsons tragedy. The Taylors were wealthy land owners and Will Tay- lor had been a member of the state legislature. They became involved in some crooked deal likely to land them in the penitentiary, and hired Meeks who was the chief witness against them, to leave the country. Meeks left in a covered wagon but the Taylor brothers feared he would return, and murdered the entire family, hiding the bodies ina straw stack. One of the children, 7-year-old Nel- Me Meeks, recovered from the wounds {nflieted by the brutal Taylors and was the chief witness agulust them. Both of the brothers were convicted and sentenced to desth. A week be- fore the day set for the execution the Taylors made @ desperate effort to escape and George was successful and has never been heard of since, although numerous rumors of his capture {n various parts of thecoun- try, hay» been circulated.

The sub-treasurer, Thomas J. Akins, fs a Republican, easy-going and thoroughly honest, and it is clearly established that he {s not and could not have been morally re- sponsible for the shortage.

Stone of Missour!, a partisan Democrat of the old school, and a fighter in whom BUTLER, MISSOURI, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1906. priation is most praiseworthy. Missouri's senior senator gets no mention or recognition from the old Missouri metropolitan papers, they probably being still sore over the humillating deieats they have sus- tained at his hands, but the people know him and have faith in him. Some few years ago he was making a speech in a neighboring state and an entranced “Why, he’s a gamecock!” A by- Five Die In Kansas Mine. Pitteburg, Kan., Dec. 21.—I. W.
