man who pretends to be sensible and
decent, can print such vile ISLANDERS
against a Teopla from whom he
davis his sustenance is past belief.
The above is equivalent to saying
that any man is a law breaker who
votes for the Democratic nomlneeior
Mayor and Marshal, and the shame
Of it all is, that he seems to be so
narrow contracted and dwsrfed in
his political views that the above ex.
pressions are his opinion Of all who
vote the Democratic ticket. Funk
seems to be unable to rise ADORE bis

WHAT IS TIE MATTER
WITH BUTLER?

1t is trite saying that 'it Is a
dirty bird that betouls its own nest
Mr.. Funk In his zeal to elect the Re
publican ticket in Butler. ISLANDERS
the city and eau see no good in it
We, together with q numb-.r OF good
people, have believed that Blu Ter
was a quiet, orderly little city to livr
in. 1t has kept pace with others OF
it's size in Missouri aud other states
Butler has water works, a municipal
lighting plant, sewers, the hest hard
brick crossings and rore and better
concrete walks than any town OF It's
size In the west. Ii Is rare that a
drunk man is seen on the street, few
troubles and disturbances OF any
kind occur and our Police Judge has
become an honorary and ornamen.
tai Office. Then why all this incen.
diary talk, simply because munich.
pal election is due. The last two ad.
ministrstions have been Democratic,
IL is true, and the city's material
welfare has not suffered to any ap
probable extent, except In the In
famed Imagination Of the editor Of
the Republican Press and his ilk.
But it has not always been governed
by that party. Occasionally q Re-
publican administration comes into
power and no one noticed that the
millennium was any nearer, the people
had TO pay just as much In taxes and
the convenienees and improvements
were no more. In fact the great ma
iority Of public municipal improve
ments have been inaugurated under
Democratic administrations. The
protection OF the citizen In his pur.
suit Of wealth, health and happiness
has been given under both admins
trations. II any great number OF
our people prevailed on Funk to To-
cate in Butler In order to save the
city, that fact never became public.
II the city and it's contented and
ha ppy citizens do not suit him, we
are sorry, but there Is no law that
we know OF that compels him to stay
and endure then. No one objects to
Mr.. Funk supporting the Republican
tic ket, or any other party that he
wants to. That Is privilege guar
anteed every voter underour form OF
60 vernment. "A city, like an individ-
ual, has character and reputation
to sustain, then what Is to be
thought OF a citizen who deliberately
attempts to break down that 'repu-
tation by false, malicious and Sian.
derous testimony. II Mr.. Funk ex-
poets any considerable number OF
our people to follow his lead he will
have to get on higher plane.
