WE'LL PLEASED WITH THE WICHITA
RIJSINEsS.

Mr.. Michael McEnnis, who is largely in
terested in the Whitaker packing plant,
reached this city yesterday and will re-
main few days, attending to business
matters. He says he is greatly pleased
with the business of the firm in Wichita.
After he had been thoroughly convinced
that packing plant would be success in
Wichita, and they could make it such, he
had no idea that it would develop SO rap
idly and become a success to the degree it
has. He seems to think the good feeling
now existing between st. Louis and Wich-
tia has already resulted in good for both,
and the continuance of the same, or an in
crease of it, should be encouraged.

All that was mortal of the late Ella

the Laughlin farm in Ellington township
Yesterday morning. The remains were
brought here from Wichita on the evening
of December %, accompanied by her father
and sister and taken to the lone of the
deceased's grandmother at SO Spring
street. Ella was bright and highly in
telligent young lady just blooming into
womanhood, one of ten children, and she
the first one to be called home. In their

sympathy of their many friends. Floral

The death of States Attorney O'Mara
necessitates special election to fill the
vacancy in that office. The statutes
provide that where an unexpired term is
more than one year an election shall be
held. Otherwise the board of supervis-
ors would have power to appoint a sue
cessor to the dead attorney. In fact the
statutes apparently confers no power for
even the temporary appointment of a
states attorney. where vacancy In the
Office exists. When the states attorney
is interested in a suit or temporarily abs
sent, the circuit judge can name person
to act in his stead for the time being, as
was done during Mr.. O'Mara's recent ILL
