A Daily Paper Devoted Entirely to
Western Interests.
Read This Offer To Readers.

Uncle Sans new colonies will prove
a source of great interest to the Ameri-
can people generally, and particular
ly with the residents of the great
southwest-the chosen field of The
Kansas City Times. The war has inn
pressed on nearly every reader the
necessity of having a live metropoli-
tan daily newspaper.
The second invasion of the Philip
pines, Porto Rico and Cuba by the
commercial forces of the United States
will be attended by many interesting
events, Yankee enterprise, with its
compliment of improved machinery
and wide-awake business methods,
will effect as startling a revolution as
achieved by Yankee sailors and SOL
diers in the recent campaigns
The progress of this peaceful army
of business men will be chronicled in
the columns of The Kansas City
Times. In additional, there will be
congressional elections in all the states
of the union this fall.
AS an indication of the prevailing
sen iment of the country, this contest
will be fraught with an unusal inter-
est, and in order to keep up with the
moves OF the political chess board,
western readers should keep in touch
with events daily transporting. By
means of fast mail trains, The Times
is distributed over the greater portion
of Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Okla
homa, Arkansas and Indian territory.
you want a live, up-to- date paper,

Rev. w. L. Grant. of Topeka, in his
article in the Fort Scott Fair PLAY last
week, talked like a man just recovering
from dream. It's foolish for man to
argue that the Negro must leave this,
his home, and seek labor and protec-
tion in foreign land. Here is his home,
here he was born and he must work
out his destiny in this country not as
Negro, but as an American citizen
We-cannot expect to reach the top in a
single day, and so far the advancement
of the race has been wonderful and in
as many more years of such progress
he will stand at the head The white
man surely must have given him some
chance to make such commenda BILE
strides. which is sufficient to prove
that Bro. Grants "Read and Rum" az
ticle is simply slush.
Mesdames Ella Finn and Mary Smith
are among those on the sick list this

Quarterly meeting will be held next
Sunday in the A. NJ. E. church. Pre-
siding Elder Brooks will be present to
preach the sacramental sermon. MIR.
Brooks is very good speaker, but like
great many preachers, he has that
''bull doing way" that will lose him
many friends Preachers must learn
to respect the feelings of others if they
expect to do well. People have no use
for man that forever has an insult to
cast at someone, or for the man who is
playing the role of 'the bully"
The people of this place have de-
clared their cele bration off and will go
to Wichita, Butler and other places to
celebrate.

without good race paper, and the

what the race is doing than all the

For Clerk of District Court.

In presenting the name of Frank A.
Bolt for clerk of the district court, we
do so from what we know and have
seen of him. He is an honest-hearted
son of toll, has lived in the county
number of years, never been an office
seeker, has been a successful farmer,
is sober, upright and honest, and has
never failed to respond to the call of
his party. He is true blue republi-
can and in every way worthy and quail
flied for the position he seeks. His 10
cation demands it. Nominate Frank
A. Bolt for clerk of the district court

Juvenile Entertainment A. nj. K. Church.
The juvenile entertain ment, the
wedding of Tom Trumb and Miss Dain-

church Thursday evening, Aug. 27th,
was grand success. A large crowd
was in attendance. Mr.. Fred Andrews

were fifteen little boys and girls, ages
ranging from to years old, entered
the church at o'clock, marched down
the aisle to the altar keeping time to
the music of Mendelssohn's wedding
march executed by Prot. Chinneth's

a beautiful picture of the miniature
lady. Little Vera Isler, the bride,
wore white satin Empire trimmed in
ing bouquet Her hair was dressed
high, draped with brioal veil wreath
ed with roses The little boys who
acted as attendants were: Charlie
Coleman, Burney Brooks, Fred Ratlitf,
Sed Paul, Maynard Griggs and Maylin

suits and made handsome appearance
as little gentlemen. Master John ID.
Jones as parson Dogood, wore a cleri-
cal surplice and performed the cere-
mony in such a pleasing and impressive
manner for which he was highly prais-
ed. Master Maurice Jones as Tom
Thumb and little Vera Isler as Miss
Dainty Littlebit, their acting in re-
sponse to the ceremony was perfect,
which pleased the audience greatly.
The entire performance was enthusl-
asticly applauded, and conceded to
be the most unique, and prettiest en-
tcrtainment of the kind ever given
here. And the success of the affair
was highly creditable to Mrs. G. W..
White and Miss Lulu Covington, who
planned tue affair, and who were so
ably assisted by Miss Ella jackson and
Mesdames S. w. Jones, Jno. Hill and
