His latest attempt was made in St. | Louis some days since when he made a proposition to the bosses that if Mr. Taft would declare himself in favor of “presidential preference pri- maries”’ and “fair southern represen- tation in Republican conventions’’ He, Mr. Hadley, would endorse Taft and Sherman, and everything in Missouri would be lovely. Mr. Hadley’s im- pertinent offer was wired to Presi- dent Taft and has been, of course, ignored. Evidently Mr. Taft is thoi familiar with ‘Gov. Wobbly’s’’ chief time that the Governor has “‘ost his grip,” and knows that his endorse- ment would add but little, if any, to the strength of the endorsee. - Governor Hadley has sung his swan song. The first verse at Chi- | | cago when he repudiated the Repub- | lican party which had raised him to prominence. The second stanza was | warbled in the same scene when he attempted to undermine Roosevelt, his new leader, and the third and last was heard in St. Louis last week. He is now making his final exit, sink- ing into oblivion, remembered only as the greatest political contortionist in the history of the state which for | the past four years he so consistently | mis-goverened. Bro. Funk of the Republican-Press who is subject to violent spells of ed- ly | itorial raving, is breaking out again, HON. CLAUD WEAVER Will Open Campaign in Bates County Saturday, October 5th. County Chairman J. E. Williams has secured the services of the Hon. Claud Weaver to make the opening. address of the Democratic campaign in Bates county, Saturday afternoon, October 5th, in the circuit court rooms in this city. Mr. Weaver will speak at Adrian at night. Hon. Claude Weaver, who is the Democratic Congressional nominee at large for Oklahoma, isa brilliant orator and is exceedingly well posted upon the vital issues of the day and every voter, regardless of his politi- cal faith should make it a point to hear him.

Bert Mead, one of the Board of Commissioners of that city, was appointed as mediator between the strikers and the railway company. He succeeded in getting the strike settled satisfactorily all around which has been greatly appreciated by the! men who were asking a raise in wages.—Telephone. Sheriff W. J.

And, too, like Billy Painter and Con. Roach, he is an old country newspaper editor. The Young Buffalo Wild West and Col. Cummins’ Far East Shows which exhibited in this city Monday was one of the best exhibitions of its kind ever showing in this part of the state. This is one Wild West Show which does not depend on gun play and the Popping of blank cartridges for its entertainment, but has “the goods.” Genuine cow punchers and broncho busters, expert lady riders, Cossack, Mexican and Indian riders, who pull is known to be an alias of the one as- has announced | sumed by Clements. Clements, when Re-|arrested, was operating a shooting gallery on the south side of the off equestrian stunts which gives the audience one continuous thrill during the entire performance. Among the best acts given was that of Miss An-: nie Oakley, in fancy shooting. Miss Oakley is equally proficient in either Tifle, revolver or shotgun shooting.
