NOMINATION OF BUXTON.
The Democrats of the Eighth Have Made NJ
Mistake.

To the Editor:-The convention of the
Eighth Congressional district has made no
mistake in the nomination of our distin-
guished citizen, J. C. Buxton, and if our
people will do their duty his nomination
is equivalent to an election.
l have known Mr.. Buxton intimately for
twenty-five years, and no matter wheth-
er viewed in his social, legal or politi-
very highest type Of true manhood
Though opposed to him in hundreds of
cases on the dockets of our courts, and
though in many CT them the fight has been
desperate and feeling has run high, 1
have never known him to do little, mean
or questionable act. A giant in size and
strength The is still well-rounded man,
his brain and his heart as big as his
body. If elected to Congress, his very
appearance will demand and receive re-
spect, and when known on his merits and
for his true worth, there will be no new
member who will be more popular or ex-
ert wider and stronger influence.
In this article l have no unkind re-
marks to make about Mr. Buttons onno-
nent, but simply call on good citizens
Democrats, Republicans and Populists
who desire the Eighth district we'll rep
resented, and who wish to have a man of
influence in Washington, to compare the
characters, habits and fitness of the can
didates, and l know they can but con-
clude that Mr.. Buxton is the superior
man.
Elect Buxton and he will always be at
his post. he will miss no roll calls. but
will ever be ready, willing and able to
help every effort that is being made to
advance our own section, or aid in the up
building of the State. l know our candi-

Will Hammer In a Wreck.

Will Hammer, well known here, hus-
band of Mrs Ora (Evans) Hammer, was
caught in another railroad wreck Sat
urday night. The following from
Tuesdays Register tells of tho accident
Bagley, March 5. Train No. 4, the
fast mail train on the Chicago, Mil
waukee g. st. Paul railway, collided
winh west bound extra freight at
midnight Saturday. Both engines
were wrecked. No lives were lost.
The fireman on the passenger train
leaped off and twas. badly hurt. -..but
not apparently dangerously. Engineer
Heron, of the passenger, was also
shaken up, but all the crews and pas
sengers miraculously escaped injury.
The two engines were standing smoke
stack to smokestack and appear to
be hopelessly wrecked. One passenger
in the smoker suffered cut on the
forehead. Several freight cars are
standing on end. The crash and jar
of the collision was deafening, and it
was miracle that 1t was not worse.
Mr.. Hammer was the fireman on the
passenger. When he jumped the train
was running at about 40 miles an hour.
His head was badly cut and bruised
and he was unconscious several hours.
He was was taken to his home at Perry
and is recovering. Charles Evans Jr.
went up to Perry Monday and writes
home that Mr.. Hammer is getting along
we'll. This is the second accident he
has been in this winter.

The Recorders office has been almost
covered up with business the last week
Recorder Esbeck assisted by Deputy
Drake and part of the time by G,o. L.
Kellogg have had to hustle to keep up.
The first OF March is date upon which
many real estate deals are completed, SO
the business about that time is alb.
normally large as compared with other
seasons OF the year, but those in the
Office say the business was greater last
week than at any time since they have
known anything about the business.
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and
Saturday of last week were February
28th and March LIST, ID and 3D.. On
those days there were forty-eight deeds
filed for record, and the total amount Of
selling price aggregated sl87, l34.99. In
these transfers there was but little town
property, and counting at the usual
price for farms this amount represents
about eight sections. On Friday alone
there were nineteen deeds filed. On the
four days the real estate mortgages
amounted to SS5, $3.50 and and the chattel
mortgages to $6,22s The total amount
OF all these instruments for the four
days was s279,192.99. The small amount
OF the chattel mortgages is feature
which indicates the people are not in as
bad financial condition as once the,
were. The releases Of real estate mor,-
cages could not easily be obtained as 5,
many are released on the margins, bu
the Recorder says the releases far excee,
the mortgages. Now il this fact as I,
releases is prosperity item, all right.
1t surely shows the ability Of the people |
to pay their debts. The big amount Of
transfers shows healthy business con-
dition.

Funeral of Mrs. Tramp.

The funeral OF Mrs. Frederick Tramp
took place from the residence of her
daughter, Mrs. Chas. Siebert, 813 East
Front street, this afternoon ut 2:30
o'clock, and from the German M. e..
church at B o'clock.
The remains arrived in this city yes
terday over the Illinois Central. The
services were largely attended by the
many old friends OF the deceased whom
she had found in her many years of resi-
dence in this city. Rev. Brinkmyer con.
Quoted the service. The interment was
in the Bloomington cemetery.
The pail bearers were the six grand
sons OF the deceased as follows; Frank,
Charles, Herman, Henry, George, and
Albert Sibert.-Bloomington Qll.) Bul
letin.
The above instance OF six grandsons
acting as pail bearers is surely quite
remarkable. The oldest was about 3S
years Of age and the youngest % years.

served on the board for twelve years,
much OF the time being president. He
has given the matter close attention and
has rendered excellent service. 1t is
doubtful il any one can be found WHO
will render as good service as has Mr.,
Nash. Mr.. Burnside has also been an
efficient member. We have heard his
name and that OF B, s. Phelps mentioned
for the two positions. We should think
they would be acceptable to the people
