Political Problems OF 1895

8ttention, through the columns OF
your paper, of the voters of Ma
rion county to the fact that 1o@o
is another election year. 1t is not
too soon for the voter TO begin 10
think and to know what Offices
are to be filltd, Tor soon the time
will come for nominations to be
made and every voter certainly
owes it to himself 10 know OF
these things and IL i measure TO
be posted on the subject. Some
Of the voters are already posted;
the ma jority Of them, however,
are not, and although this years
election is what has been termed
an oil year, it not bein" a presi-
Dental election, still every cleo
ton is Of vast Importance TO the
electors, and by force Of cirium-
stances, the Offices TO be filed this
year in state and county will
make it interesting, to say the
least.
Let us take up the state mat
tcrs and summarize them. One
justice Of the supreme court has
resigned and an appointee is fill
ing the place; another justice will
go out by reason Of his time ex-
piring. The state treasurer re-
signed and another appointee is
filing his place.
Under the act Of 1897 there
will be three railroad commission
ers to be elected; hence, you see
to start with, Oh the state ticket
will be candidates as follows: 2
supreme court justices, state
treasurer, railroad commits
sioners, which in itself ought to
put the people OF our county on
the alert as to who Marion county

A PRETTY


One of the most elegant receptions of
the winter was that given by Mrs. J. G.
McGrew last Friday afternoon, In honor
of her daughter, Mrs. Bard, of Sedalia.
Her home, which Is so we'll adapted for
entertainments of this kind, never wore a
more inviting appearance. Elaborate
decorations of holly and mistletoe gave
the interior of the house quite a holiday
air. Nothing Is more effective as a deco
ration than holly, when used wisely and
certainly an artist had a~uperintended the
adjoining of Mrs. McGrew's house.
In the west parlor the guests were
received by Mrs. j. c. McGrew, Mrs.
Bard, Mrs. Ed McGrew, Mrs. Percy
Silver and Mrs. c.. c. Parker. All were
beautifully gowned In harmony with the
surroundings. In the cast parlor punch
was served; then the guests we're invited
to the dining room by Mrs. NETT
Peters. This room was a picture In green
and red-the table lighted by candelabra.
with red shades. Here Mrs. Joseph Silver
and Mrs. Leroy Farmer looked after the
welfare OF the guests.
