If " coming events cast
BEFORE those shadows

When we see young woman go out to
meet fate that way it brings to mind the
Frenchman's saying of the Charge of
the Light Brigade. 1t was magnificent
but it was not war" 1t is magnificent
to see the young girl face the future so
fearlessly, but it is not life. No young
woman is ready for married life unless
her physical condition is up to the stand
ard of marriage, in the health of all the
delicate womanly organs, and rarely IS
that the case.
Young women entering upon the
state of marriage will find no friend so
helpful as DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton. 1t gives vigor and elasticity to the
organs peculiarly feminine, prevents the
drains that ruin the health, and makes
the ordeal of motherhood so easy that it
is practically almost painless.
AT an early stage of married life writes
Mrs. Flora Arm OF Dallas; Jackson Co., Mo, =

ASYLUM COMMISSIONERS.

Meeting.

Jeff-r-on City, Nc, Sept. 16 -
Under the provision of au act of the
last Legislature establishing an in.
sane asylum in Southeast Missouri
to be know as State Lunatic Asy
Ium NJ. 4. Gov. Stephens appointed
the folio wing commissioners to locate
aud build said institutions: j. D
Alie', Butler, Bates county; j. Ed
Berry, Fulton, Galloway county; o.
@ CI4y, Canton; Lewis county; DR.
@ TT. Riggs, MiddIetown. Mont
gomery county; J. L. Buchanan,
Californis, Moniteau county.
The commissioners were to day
notified by the Governor to meet at
the State Capitol on Monday, Octo
Der 2, to organize and file their
bonds of $4,000 each for the Gov
ernor's approval. It is expected that
the commissioners will lose no time
in viewing the various sites offered
for the location of the institution
10 speaking of the appointments
this afternoon, Governor Stephens
said: The bill establishing the
Southwest Missouri Asylum, located
at Nevada, carried with it a provision
that the commissioners should be
appointed from portions of the state
other than the south west, and I con
sidered 1T best to pursue that policy
in this respect.
IL had at first intended to appoint
these commissioners from the south
east. but the candidates were so
numerous and the rivalry among
them became 20 intense that il I had
made selections FROM them there
would have been charges of favorit
ism. As it is, / have appointed good.
clean aud well known men, who have
no AXIS to grind and no preiudiees to
exhibit they will give each town
a fair hearing aud will view the
various sites offered with an aim to
select the most suitable location fer
the establishment Of great Institu-
ton From the personnel of the
board it can be seen that each town
competing for the asylum will have
fair play"

INJURIOUS, BUT NOT MALICIOUS

| linz u h1OOpf OO N0A AAoASASoH'
A man living in county and
deriving his support directly from
the people, who would deliberately
send out sensational and highly col
ored stories to metropolitan papers,
which are calculated to depreciste
the value of the property of his pat
rons and bring his own people into
disrepute in the estimation OF the
world, is deserving of the severest
censure. For several weeks sensa-
tional stories have been published in
the Kansas City and St. Louis pa
pers and copied by papers all over
the country, calculated to do the
people of this county all irreparable
injury. The Scully purchases and
tenure system are made much of
and the reader is led to believe
that our beautiful and fertile county
will soon be under the tenement
system. Parties who have capital to
invest will be slow to come to us
with such a prospect staring them
in the face.
Now what are the facts. Four
or five years ago Mr.. Scully, through
his agents, purchased a number of
farms in Bates county, purely as an
investment. These gentlemen were
good judges of real estate and Sc
lected the best county they could
fad IN which to make their purch
asses. So far it was a great compli
ment to Bates county. There was
no law to prevent gentleman from
purchasing all the land he had the
money to pay for, consequently agi-
tatIon of the matter would have
been to no purpose. This land was
purchased in different locations so |
that it was evidently not the inten
ton to control township affairs
Lhuh IL SIO"6tl3 III uODOEADlS, |
high minded gentleman, and pro
gressive citizen was placed in charge |
OF those interests and chose for his
assistants W Nj. Arnold and Jesse |
Smith, well known and popular
young gentlemen It has been the
effort of these gentlemen to Sc cure
the very best aud most trustworthy
tenants, and in this they have
succeeded to a marked degree, as
their neighbors and the merchants
testify. For the past two years
there hes been partial failures of the
corn crop One year MIR. Crowell
released them of one fourth the rent;
the next year he released them of
one half the rent. This as evidence
that they are not such grasping
land lords as we have heard
We CT oose to believe that these
articles were written, not for the
purpose of deceiviog the public
DR. iDjuring our people, but for the
revenue derived from the sale there

Governor Stephens has selected
wisely in choosing members Of tie
Southeast Missouri Asylum Com
missioners. j. d Allen, editor of
the B UTLER TIMES, who heads this
important commission, is we'll known
to many of the Mails readers as an
able journalist and a most excellent
gentlemen of sterling honesty and
steadfast fairness. That The other
members of the commission possess
to the same degree these same nee
essary qualifications, there is no
doubt. 1t was the part of wisdom
to choose these commissioners from
outside the district contending for
the location of this Institution, aud
judging from the high character OF
the com missioned it is safe to say
that every competing town will be
treated with the greatest fairness in
locating this institution At the
same time the states interests will
be strictly guarded.
