To THE VOTERS OF BATES COUNTY.
1t must be evident to all who paid
any attention TO the late democratic
convention held in Butler, that the
wishes of many democrats were dis.
regarded, and not only so but the
votes Of enough delegates who in
tended to vote for me, but were cast
by the chairman OF at least one town
ship on the final ballot for Mr.. Will
son, to have given me the nominal
ton. The evidence TO substantiate
this statement is in my possession, as
is also proofs that the chairman of
one township refused TO poll the del
egation, but announced the result
which he know was contrary TO the
wishes of at least one-haIf of such
delegation. Believing as | do, that
the democratic party is opposed to
such fragrant Outrages, and that thew
will rebuke such action at the polls.
have determined to submit my
name to the voters Of Bates county
for Recorder, as an independent
and if elected promise
you my very best efforts to discharge
the duties devolving upon me, and
will assure you that any confidence
re posed in NE viii not be betrayed.

[ Rich H.l Review. May "a.
Samuel A. BealI died at the family
| home, two and one half miles north
of Rich Hill, at 6:15 o'clock yester-
day evening. Mr.. Beall became
afflicted with throat trouble some
eight months ago. This finally grew
into a turlor and later went to the
lungs, causing consumption. Every
thing possible had been done for the
sick man. but all remedies proved of
no benefit further than affording
temporary relief. Specialists at Kan
sas City treated the case and finding
they could DO nothing for their
patient, advised that he secure q
change of climate. Accordingly Mr.
Beall went to Texas points. He
grew worse and again turned
homeward, arriving here at I o. clock
yesterday morning. He only lived
a few hours after his arrival.
Deceased was born at Middletown,
KY, and was about IS years of age.
He lea 'es an aged mother and three
brothers TO mourn for him, besides
other relatives and friends
The body was brought to this
city late this evening, and will be
shipped to MiddIetowD, Kentucky,
to night for burial.
Deceased was a member of Pine
Camp No 81, Woodmen of the
World, and carried a policy for
$4,000. A delegation of Woodmen
followed the remains from the Beall
farm to this city, and assisted in the
arrangements for shipment of the
body.
