AN ADDRESS
By the Democratic Executive Co nmittes
OF Bates County.

Approaching the great Importance
OF the coming election and recOgniz-
ing that Over-contidence NAV work
harm and cause Indifference. we
wished to impress on each and every
democratic aud Bryan voter that re-
publican Journals have classed Mis-
souri, III the doubtful column.
They are making strenuous efforts
to secure one or two more congress
men IN Missouri and capture the leg
islature.
W hile IL may seem unreasonable TO
you, that republicans expect 10 carry
Missouri, still 1t is claimed that there
has been Hanna money sent TO this
state to elect kerens senator.
The reports from every portion Of
Bates are very cheering for theentire
ticket, but no one knows that his
vote will not be needed. Remem-
Der 1894.
Now, we would ask the township
committeeman to organic their
townships thoroughly 50 ae 10 get
ont every democratic and Bryan
voter.
We have every reason to be proud
of democratic administered ton in
Missouri. The election OF Bryan is
the only hope OF the people TO pre-
serve the republic against an empire
and to restore silver to its proper
place as basic money.
Congressman DeArmond stands
high in national councils. Our cOun-
| ty ticket is exceptionally IA clean and
strong one. Therefore. let every one,
espOusing our cause, be active, yigi-
liant and untiring on election day.

HOT MORNING BREAKFAST.
Comfort Depends on Food.

It is not so easy to arrange a tempt
ing breakfast for a hot morning, but
everyone appreciates such a breakfast
and enjoys the relief from the heated
blood caused by a meat and coffee
breakfast
In fact by skillful selection of food.
even the hottest day can be made quite
comfortable.
Start with fruit of some kind, then
a dish of Grape-Nuts food with cold
cream, one or two soft boiled eggs. a
slice of bread and butter and cup of
cocoa or Postum Food Coffee. On that
sort of meal one will be fully nOurish-
ed until the midday.
Grape-Nuts food is concentrated and
powerful, imparting to the user a sense
of reserve force and strength. The
strong man thinks the weather moder-
ate and comfortable when the nervous,
weak man thinks it unbearably hot
Grape-Nuts food is perfectly cooked at
the factory and ready for instant use,
cool and delicious, requiring no hot
stove and cross cook on a hot morning.
Health is a matter Of wise selection Of
food and a contented mind"

Latter-day Saints Get Tithing
Lot Site.
MONEY BEING PAID OVER
PROMOTERS HOPE SOON To
RAISE $4,000.
Enthusiastic Friends of the College
Figure that the First Building
VIII Be Ready for Occupancy in
Time to Start With the Next
School Year.

The permanent home of the Latter
day Saints college viii be located on
the northwest corner of the tithiHg
house block across Main street from
the temple. This is now practically as
sured, although some conditions are
still to be complied with. President
Lorenzo Snow has agreed on behalf of
the church to deed to the college a
piece of ground on the corner desert bed,
having frontage of $50 feet on Main
and the same frontage on North Tenn
pie, lust quarter of the block, on
conditions that $4,000 be subscribed
for the erection of the first wing of the
college building.
A committee with Bishop George
Romney at its head has been busy
soliciting subscriptions among the
friends of the college and with such
success that the enterprise is now as
sured. Bishop Romney could not tell
last evening just how much had been
subscribed as there were a number Of
subscription papers out, but it is
known that one of the papers had over
$4,000 upon it and it is reasonably GER
tain that at least half of the required
100000 has already been subscribed.
The ground that President Snow pur-

by the church at about $3.50, 600, and the
idea is to put up buildings to cost not
less than $500, 900. The first building is
to be but a wing of the main building
and this it is hoped to have completed
by the time school opens in the fall.
Bishop Romney thinks this is expecting
too much, but it is the ambition of the
friends of the college
The college now. has a valuable piece
of property on the corner of First and
A streets, worth perhaps $4,000 This,
it is the intention of the trustees to
sell as soon as a clear deed can be
given. There seems to be some claim
against it by the heirs of Brigham
Young This money will be used, of
course, in the building on the new site.
The more sanguine. expect to see work
begun on the first structure as soon as
plans can be gotten out.
