George A. 0uinlan' who mas "a

crat to be the guest of honor az a
BANQUET at the Hotel Cimarron on
the evening of October H. the

crate affair of lLs kind ever gwen
IN ,he lowu and that only geptl'1
man will be invited That muci
has been definitely decided by VI"
committee.
Champ Clark will lecture at
Meade ON the afternoon OF Octoo'
er IL, and will then probably
drive by automobile To Liberal
there being 10 trains by which he
NAV make his connection. la rs
much as this is the first visit OF a
man of national Importance to
Liberal it is quite 6ttIng that we
make some little event of it.
There is probably no man In the
United States right now who is at
tracing so much interest as
Champ Clark, the heady speaker
of the House of Representatives.
There seems no doubt but that he
will be a candidate for the presi-
dency. If his prestige continues
to grow in the next few months
as il has since the first of the
year Re will land the Democratic
nomination. While the arrange,
ments for the banquet have not
been completed it is probable it
will be served after the lecture at
the new Hotel Cimarron. We
have the opportunity, the place
and the means to give Champ
Clark a royal welcome, and it will
doubtless be carried out with the
sual Liberal spirit. Tne title of
Champ Clark's lecture here will be
THE United States of America in
the Twentieth Century," and will
be absolutely non-partisan, The
members of the committee are:

LITTLE MONEY
rs OBTAINED.
Baseball Committee at Hannibal is
Not Working Because Of
Weather.

Hannibal Courier Post: Because OF
the Indictment weather since last week
the three committees in charge OF the
raising of funds for the securing of
Jake Beckley as manager of the base
ball club here next season have raised
but small amount The snow and
sleet made the raising OF money al
most impossible the latter part of last
week. Some of the men in charge of
the raising of the funds we're exceed
ingly busy Saturday owing to the Burl-
ington pay day.
1t is expected that the three COM
mittees will be out in full force to-
morrow to obtain funds for the secur-
ing of Hannibals old favorite. With
Beckley at the helm OF the team it
would be an easy matter for Hannibal
TO have a first division team. from the
start of the season until the gong
sounds on Labor day.
Three thousand dollars must be rails
ed by the local association before
Beckley can be signed.

The Olympian members were off col
ors during all three games. rolling
the weakest they have this season.
The best individual performer of the
night was Doughty. who led off for
the Burlington squad. He shot con-
sistently until the third when he got
an even 200 games which boosted his
average to 1S4 2-3. Glason of the visi-
