Coed Words for Our Candidates

o~Oa w oros Tor O0r Canut0RteH,
RicA Hill Review.
There is no opposition to s T.
Broaddus. He will get all kinds OF
votes in Usage township, where he
is best known.
kobt. Bradley, who returned from
Henry county last night, says W
W. Graves candidacy for the circuit
judgeship is fairly flying over there.
He has brother who is republican
and was assured by him that large
number of republicans would vote
for Dir. Graves on his merits. We
are pleased TO learn that Mr. 3. left
his mother considerably improved
John Thurman, candidate for
circuit clerk, will surprise some of
those who have been moving heaven
and earth to defeat him by the Cir
culation of all sorts of stories Thur
man is one of the most energetic
men in Bates county, and the people
generally understand his ability
The populists know what hustling
he has done on the silver question,
and Atkeson's efforts will only result
in driving them to his support
No finer or more honorable gen
tleman and no better democrat or
citizen than ". M. Dalton, demo-
cratic nominee for probate Judge, is
to be found in Bates county He is
the only four year man who was
popular enough to secure renomi-
nation. His office is a small one in
a financial sense, but very important
in every other, and Judge Dalton
has no better friends IN his present
campaign than his opponent Fletcher
Smith and Mr.. Smiths Rich Hill
friends. The Judge can count on
the Review.

Kansas City, Mo, Oct. 1.-THE
Grsnd Jury returned indictments
to-day against Jesse James, Jr,
William W. Lowe, Charles Polk,
Andy Ryan and Caleb Stone for
holding up and robbiDg Missouri
Pacific tram at Belt Line Junction
the night of September % Deputy
Marshsls were given the capias war
rants for the arrest of these men
and Wet out at once and arrested
Jam-a tt d Stoue. Lowe and Ryan
are already in jail. Polk vas arrested
tonight
James WAS taken to the private
office of Marshal Chiles and was
arraigned in the Criminal Court at
3:15 o'clock, r. l.. Yeager and f. G
Farr, his attorneys, aud E. F.
Swinney, the banker, went into court
with him. When he was arrsigned
Mr.. Farr entered a plea of not
guilty. Judge Wofford fixed his
bond at 5000, which was furnished
Immediately by MIR Swinney and
Mr. Farr. Mr, Yeager said:
"Your Honor, we desire trial at
the earliest possible moment. We
are ready for trial to morrow and we
ask a severance"
The Judge looked over his docket
and said: II will set the trial for
October 26'
Since his arrest seven attorney @
have visited Jesse James, Jr., and
offered their services in defending
him free OF charge. David A. Bail,

nation of Governor, was the sixth TO
offer to defend young James free.
Il have two good lawyers now in
charge of my case and so l must
decline other Offers" said james
to day.
Officials OF the Pacific Express
Company have stated with great
deal of publicity that the company
lost but S29 at Leeds on September
%, by gang of robbers, supposedly
led by W. ". Lowe, all the alleged
members of which were indicted by
the Grand Jury.
Against this statement of the
officials is placed the positive decla
ration of persons familiar with the
inside facts of the case that one
Kansas City bank has been paid
$1,000 by ths company to make good
IT'S loss. It is also stated by the
same persons that $1,000 in all has
been paid back to various bushes 5
houses to reimburse them for losses
sustained in the hold up. The of
fcials of the company deny that any
such reimbursement has been made.

Knock His Promise Out.

Chairman Atkins of the republican
Fate committee promises that if the
tpublicans carry st. Louis by from
1000 to Is, 600 this viii be sufficient
/ Offset the democratic majority in
be rest of the state and 80 elect the
hpublican state ticket.
Il will be we'll for democrats to
bap in mind the calculations upon
bAch this promise of Chairman
lkins is based. First and foremost
counts upon many democrats

bte ticket is safe. Next, he is con
Fsut that the republican national
Fnmittee Doodle which will be more
tsey used in the state, fuller re-
Eblcan vote Will be secured. Dem
kratic apathy and republican slush
Ends form the combination which
hds MIR. Atkins to county upon re-
tblican success in Missouri.
It will be decidedly difficult for
fs Ziegenhein machine to carry st
Iauis by 10000 or $4,000 or any
Ehsr majority, and equally difficult
p the democratic majority in the
Pot Of the state to be overcome, but
far oil that democrats must make
Fnubly sure both in city and state
fas the promise of the republican
pate chairman is not made good.
Ehey can do this by working faith
Ialy for the success of the demo
Patio ticket from now until election
FA!, and then going to the polls and
Rting. This is simple proposition
adit covers the plain duty OF every
fsnocrat. The Ziegenhein gang in
n Louis and republican Doodle

fowned. The way to down them is
L vote them down--Republic.

The following fairy story from an
exchange is going the rounds: A
travelling man stopped at hotel in
Mexico recently, and, upon being
shown the bill of fare, wrote upon
the back of it, Heb. 13:S" The
girl who waited on the table was
angry. She thought the travelling
man was trying to 'jolly' her, SO
she took the bill of fare to the pro
prietor of the hotel and showed him
what the man had written. Upon
looking the reference up in his wife's
Bible the hotel man read: Jesus
Christ, the same yesterday, to day
and forever"

Horse and Buggy Stolen.

Z. H. Review, IS.
The horse thieves that have been
operating in and about Nevada are
evidently moving up this way to
continue in their nefarious work.
4 horse and buggy were stolen at
Horton last night. The property
belonged to Johnny Humble. He
drove the rig to a church near Hor
ton, and while the young man was
attending divine services, some
sneak thief made off with the outfit.
The rig passed through Balltown
during the night and continued on
north. The identity of the driver
could not be established.

ration thereof, akhMlgl, the formal
declaration Of r,war; whlch'is borrowed
from the Romans, has fallen into diAusp.

sage of such an act is sufficient dpclara
tiJn thereof. a.: 4s.r.. t,.. .f... 3,
The wkriHaking power in tlistiDvcrn-
n,ent rests entirely with Cul,gress, and
the President can authorize Eiligrrant
operations, according 70 Daniel Webster
only in cases provided for BY the Con.
stilution Or law. But, while Congress
alone can declare war or authorize it, the
Executive can 60 far enough in that d.
rectioi, II it chooses, to make suci, a
declarat ion practically nece ssarry in up
holding the honor of the country.
In event OF war with Spain the q'ws-
ti"n OF privateering would be important.
This form ot attack, which H. practically
licensed piracy, has not been pacticcd
by vessels of the United States for more
than sixty.five years, and it is probable
that this country would enter int" an
agreement with Spain hat neither side
should iSsuc letters M nlarque to priva-
teers. Perhaps Spain wouht not agttr to
that provision in the hope Of striking III
our coastwise trade. There was an in!
ternnti'nai agleriiHnt OF the subject in

England, France, Austria, Prussia MM

In DAYS Like These.

OGod of hosts, whose mighty hand
Our fathers led across the seas,
We took from thee our goodly land!
To thee we look in days like these,
Mid swelling tumult, bitter word,
Mid clashing arms and bugles blare,
While war drums fret the fevered air,
In days like these be near, o Lordl
The winds have swept our colors out.
Our polished guns the sun has kissed.
With measured step and loyal shout
The men trooped by who now are missed.
The hilltops signal far away,
And sea calls sea with beacon lips,
Where ride our far flung battleships,
To strike Il foe at break Of day.
Forgive, o Lord, that we forgot
To humble self and thee to please!
Our VOWS unkept, Gins thought, unthought,
Forgive, o Lord, in day like thesel
Our gift upon the altar Il IS.
Accept it ere thou call US hence,
Although thou saidst obedience,
Is better than sacrifice.
IT'S not for gain or vengeful spite
Our treasure and our life are poured,
But for the wronged who have no might,
Whose cry has reached the ear Of God.
In days like these our motives take,
Since whom thou usest thou must trust,
And when We smite because we must
Help Us to heal the wounds we make.
