County Court Commended.

| Rich Hill Tribune.
After mature elaboration and q
thorough investigation OF the ques
sion of drainage, as applied to the
Mariss des Cygnes river bottoms, the
county court voted unanimously in
favor OF the proposition. This
ought to settle the matter and all
the people unite In one solid hearty
effort TO carry the proposition
through to successful issue.
The county cours Is composed oil

them are men OF sound, practical
common sense, good judgment, and
are heavy tax payers, we do not be-
lisve they would place a tax upon
their neighbors unless they honestly
believed such tax would inure to
the benefit of such neighbors. They
have satisfied themselves that this
result will follow their act and are
perfectly willing to let subsequent
events prove the correctness Of the
position they have taken. That
their Judgment will be amply vindi.

The advent OF the Sells Il Downs

Der 4th will, IL is said, mark an
epoch in the matter OF tented amuse.
ments in Butler. That this show will
present the largest and finest street
pageant Butler has yet witnessed, Is
asserted without any doubt. That
the circus company numbers more
circus performers and Of O better
order OF merit than have heretofore
been gathered together under any
one management, Is also stated
positively. Thousands OF dollars In
cash were expended last winter In
accommodating new features to add TO
the glories of the Sells 4 Downs

The menagerie is said to be a very
complete one, containing the finest
collection OF rare wild beasts to be

well as those elder folks who are
ever bright and youthful In spirits,
will be delighted again with the ieats
OF the many male and female per-
formers, the handsome horses, the
wonderful exhibition OF wild beasts,
the marvellous aerial acts, and the
exciting races on the hippidrome
track. Exchanges are all unanimous
in praising the courtesy OF Sells Il
Downs employees while handling the
immense crowds and finding seats
for late corners. The reputa-
ton OF Sells & Downs for faithfully
carrying out all their advance prom
ises and for dealing fairly with the
public in all things, affords positive
assurance that their show will eclipse
anything OF a like nature seen here
before. The Pontiac Zouaves, the
finest drilled soldiers in the World,
and the Marvellous Trained Seals and
Sea Lions are features OF this great
show, and they alone are worth the
price OF admission.
