Mr.. McLain was born and raised in
Cape Girardeau county. lie has
served the people well AMI faithfully
As county Assessor aud he is therefor
too well known 10 the people to re-
quire any introduction at our hands.
We Will say. however, that lie is a
good man and if elected he will do
his whole duty while i'm Office.
1t Is said that one brave man
tried to give Kelley's army the JEFF
Davis racket yesterday. lie went
home on double quick time and it is
said that he dressed up in his wIfc'>
clothes. lie was determined that il
captured by k~elltyit,s he would be
captured a. a woman aud not Is a
horses rosett, which he really is.
-Kellcy's army came and Went
away and nobody was hurt. Cape
Girlrdcau is a city noted for its
literally and her people did nobly
yesterday In charity work. AS we
have said before, the people Of this
section of the country are not in SYM
pathy with the Kelley and Coxeyites,
but they are always ready TO feed a
hungry man.
Yes, we are going to have water
works sure enough at last. The Gan
mons arc here with an engineer
making 4 survey, and they inform US
that they expect to begin work on
the plant next week. When they get
started they will want n large force
of hands and Mr.. Cannon informs us
that he will give the laboring lei of
this city the preference in all the
work they can do. The digging OF
the bitches and laying of mains will
require a large force Of hands fer
several months and we are pleased
that our home laborers are to be given
a chance to earn the money thus ex-
pended.
William Paar is announced in
to-day's paper as a candidate for re-
election to the office Of the clerk of
the County Court. We will not
attempt to introduce Mr.. Paar TO the
people of Cape Girardeau county for
we believs that he is known BY q
greater number of men than any
other man in the county. As q
County Clerk, however, we will say
that no man in the State of Missouri
il the peer Of William Paar. He il
thoroughly posted as to every detail
OF the office and he never allows hi
wsrk to be undone. His books ant
papers are always clean and correct
A better man than "Bilr Paar coult
net be found to take are of tn,
county records and We don't be!iev'
the people are even slightly thinkin!
Of looking for a better man, for sucl
an act would be as foolish a. II woul'
