Little John, Jr., the only son Of
John Bratt, who lives one mile and
a half south cast of independence,
died suddenly Saturday evening. of
scarlet fever. Rev. Prince preached
the funeral sermon, after which the
remains were inferred in the New
burg cemetery, at 4:30 Sunday
evening. John, Jr., was about six
years of age, and shining light in
the family.
\ precious ono from us has gone :;
a voice we loved is stillcd
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filed.
God, in his wisdom, has recalled
The boor his love had given.
And though the body moulders here,
The soul is safe in Heaven.
This lovely bud, SO young. so fair,
Called hence by early doom,
Just camo to show how sweet a
flower
In Paradise would bloom.
Ere sin could harm or sorrow fade.
Death came with friendly care,
The opening bud to Heaven con.
veyed,
And babe it blossom there.

the workings Of the inner circle at

senatorial aspirations to the RIM
instead Of the People. The writer
makes strong case against the
Bosses and convicts them of unfair
ness. lie proves conclusiyely to
the unprejudiced and impartial
observer that Morley and Lanham
are afraid to let the voters of their
party pass judgment OH their claim.

that the Court IS Of the opinion
that, upon the whole case, if we
could consider the exceptions, no
reversible error appears; but the
principles involved will not be dis
cussed, since anything touching
upon them would be obiter."
The case was argued before the
Court through printed briefs sub
mitted by the attorneys, Neil j..
Portney for the State and p. j.
Crogan for the defense. Mr.. Gro.

A "FAKE" PAPER.

The Press, little patent cam.
paign paper, printed in Washington
and sent out through the Kingwood
postoflice, IS anxious to have the
ARGUS take some notice Of it and
give it little free advertising. The
publisher, who is also the kingwood
correspondent of the Intelljgeneer,
is a crank Of the first water and at
tacks us in the last issue about a
very small matter, in keeping with
his own littleness. Some time since
the ARGUS criticised the Mtelligcn-
GER correspondent here, without
mentioning any names or giving
anybody away, for sending in whole
columns OF matter stolen bodily
from this and other papers as srigi-
nal news. We can prove what we
said, and will take pleasure in doing
so at any time, but we sent out no
marked copies, the Press statement
TO the contrary Notwithstanding,
and thought nothing more Of the
matter until this lying statement in
the last issue of the Press brings the
matter again to our notice. This
cram claims that before and since
our criticism, we have been in the
habit of Stealing" his "fake cor
respondence' and publishing it as
original. This is lie, pure and
simple, Every simple), and out of
the whole cloth, and we defy this
"fake" to prove it. Why we should
want to publish this "fake's" news
in the Mtelligencer when it had
been stolen word for word from the
ARGUS months before, is question
that nobody outside of lunatic
asylum would attempt to answer.
The only item of news that this faky
fake pretends to cite as being "sto-
len" from him, is little telegraph
dispatch about an inch and half
long in regard to the double postal
card patented by Capt. Murdoch,
and because we made note of it,
as did hundreds Of other papers
throughout the land, without cred
iting it to anybody, he sees great
opening for criticism. We first saw
the item in paper in the west, and
saw it in dozens of papers since,
without having any idea where 1T
originated. The same issue of the
Press contains columns of similar
news items, "stolen" bodily from
the telegraphic dispatches of the
day, rs well rs lot of other patent
matter, published without credit.
