make better leader than Bailey, who
has had the honor for two sessions.

THE postmaster general in his report
says that rural free delivery is being
vigorously opposed by the saloon keep
ers, who find that when the farmer is
not compelled to go to the village for
his mail, he forgets and neglects his
thirst. This reminds us that Gov.
Bradley says that sou.e republican sa-
loon keepers came to him with pro-
test against the day he had set for the
election OF congressman in the eth,
because the bars would have TO be
closed that day and they would lose one
of the best of the year, because people
drink more about Christmas time. The
governor says he could hardly treat
the men ciyilly, but checked himself
and told them that they would probably
make as much anyway as the fellows
would be thirsty after days fast and
he victorious party would besides feel
like celebrating. All of which goes to
show that the saloon keepers thinx
they'have rights that must not be in
terfered with, no matter who else is
benefited.

JUNE w. GAYLE, OF Owen, was nom
mated for Congress 10 the It'll dis
trict on the 9th ballot. The deadlock
hat had existed up to that time be-
ween him, Julian, Moody and Allen,
was broken by the latter withdrawing
aud throwing his strength to Gayle.
The other candidates accepted defeat
gracefully and each made speeches
pledging their support to the nominee,
who though not speaker, said he
would work to make up for it. The
committee adopted resolutions con-
demning the use of the military at the
polls, expressed confidence in the cleo
tion OF the entire democratic ticket and
denounced ia unmeasured terms the
efforts of the republican and subsidized
press aud members OF the republican
party in their attempts to intimtdate
the county and State election commits
sioners. The nomination seems to be
victory for Goebel, who has the
kindliest feelings for Gayle, because he
did not sulk when defeated for auditor
before the State convention. a reg
ular love feast followed the nomination
and tie convention broke up in a hap
ply mood, each man determined to do
his part towards defeating Bill. Owens,
that arch traitor to the democracy, |
which made him what he Is, whom the |
Brownies and republicans have put up
to be knocked down.

THE nomination Of Bill Owens for
Congress by the Brownies and republic
cans has raised sort of row and a
rumpus. Col. Billy Breckinridge, who
WRITES for the Lexington Herald, says
be twill not support him-not because
OF his opposition in the former contest
nor for any utterance made by him In
that contest-but because OF the means
used by him and with his knowledge by
which both his nomination and cleo
ton were secured. We have not united
with the Brown democracy, we are not
republican, have not joined the Honest
Election League, and have not partici-
pated in the conventions which made
this nomination.; and have remained
free TO take such course as seemed best
after action was taken" Managing
Editor Desha Breckinridge: IL know,
aud every man OF any intelligence in
this district, who was then old enough
to know anything about politics, knows
that Mr.. Owens got his nomination in
1894 by fraud and his election by theft. |
The idea OF nominating a man whose
only success in politics has been
through fraud and theft to represent
those who fight for honesty in politics
Is both absurd and suicidal" Fortu-
nately for Bill the support or opposition
Of the Herald can not help or hurt
him. He is not 10 the race and the
Gayle that will. oyertake him will put a
luietus on him and his aspirations for

McLouth, Jan. 800. w. Glynn, a
wealthy stockman of this place, has
been missing since last Tuesday and the
police of Kansas City have been re-
Quested to join in the search that is be-
ing made for him by his relatives.
Glynn left home last Monday night for
Kansas City, in charge of a carload or
cattle, which he sold to Thomas Trow-
ers' Sons at the stock yards the follow
ing day. When Glynn received his
money for the stock he mailed a draft
to himself to McLouth for the full pro-
ceeds of the sale with the exception or
about 800.
Fifth and Main streets and purchased a
express. He did not write to his fam
lily and when he failed to put in an APP
pearance at home by Friday, his son
became worried over his absence and
went to Kansas City in search of him.
The son has learned that his father
had only about $40 on his person after
he mailed a draft home. He fears, how
ever, that his father may have peen
foully dealt with. He was not addicted
to the use of liquor, and his relatives
cannot account for his failure to return
home on Wednesday, as he said he
would. The missing man is 80 years
old, five feet ten inches tall and weighs
200 pounds He has been selling stock
on the Kansas City market for seN eral
wears and is we'll acquainted with a
large number of commission men en-
gagged in business at the stock yards.
