The Picnic, Candidates. Crops, Etc.
BELLEyIEW, Mo-, July 2Sth, 1890

BELLEvIEw, Mo-, July 2Sth, 1890.
Ed. RegiSter-I have intended writing you
full particulars as to the Cedar Grove picnic
on Saturday last, but my time has been so
fully occupied with other matters that shall
only say that the picnic was a success in
every particular, and the managers are en-
titled to great credit tor its success; but even
they would have failed to a certain extent if
the ladies of that vicinity had not come to
the rescue with willing hands. The best of
homemade bread and cakes, pies and meats
in abundance, sprinkled over heavily with
preserves, jellies, pickles, honey and so many
other things that no Ole person could posi-
bly, eat through the bill of fare. Candidates
were there also in abundance. We saw on
the grounds several candidates for sheriff,
two for treasurer, two for assessor, two for
county judge, and one for collector. There
may have been others present, but do not
call them to mind in my hurry. 1 do not
write for the purpose of booming any candi-
date, but as the hottest fight is said to be be-
tween the two candidates for collector, [ am
of course only posted as to this end of the
county, and may be not thoroughly in that,
but am satisfied that Mr.. Whitworth will
fall considerably behind in this portion of
the county, as you would very naturally
suppose, this being the home of Henderson,
whom to know is to respect. He is good
man, fit for the office. Corn has taken a
boom in the past two weeks that makes the
farmer smile as he gazes over the green sea
of waving tassels and silks that indicate the
Iucious roasting-ear. A-RoADS.

TURLEY, aged IL years.
Religious services were held at the house,
after which the remains were accompanied
by a large company of relatives and friends

A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filed.
God in His wisdom has recalled
The boon his love has given,
And though the body slumbers here,
The soul Is safe in heaven.

Navy Departments had but forty.two stars,

Day. No doubt this was done by special
order Of Car Reed, to blind the masses TO
his conspiracy against the liberties Of the
American people.
In spite of the heat Of the weather and Of
popular indignation at the usurpaiion Of
radicalism, patriotism found vent in many
directions. 1t was eyinced IN shutting up
shop, going on picnics or excursions, firing
of cannon and pop crackers, keeping cool
indoors, and fireworks and general re-
joicing AT night.
In Richmond more than Sunday stiffness
prevailed. few flags were displayed from
the capitol and private warehouses, but
comparatively small proportion Of the in
habitants saw them, as the majority of
those who had not fled from the city heat
did not appear until travelling thunder
storm in the neighberhood cooled the air.
Though the storm did not reach the city,
it fired salute Of thirteen guns, and the
flashing Of the lightning after dark was an
excellent background for artificial pyro-
inphnics.
