At the first election. August, 1912,
tho following were the candidates:
r. NJ, Barkhurst was chosen repre-
sentative; his opponents were Dan
B. Holman, of Nodaway. and Thos.

Cornelius Gillian, Of Ray county,
was chosen as state senator.
John W. Kelley, John Stewart and
James kimscy were chosen for county
Judges.
John Gibson and Gallatin Adkins

John Lewis was chosen constable.
There were no party issues then to
distract the mind Of the settler. All
we're Democrats, nothing but personal
or local considerations entered the
contest. The total vote polled at this
election was 3O7-all of a kind. -
John Gibson was the first assessor
to be elected, but Glen b. Thorp was
the first to act in this capacity, he
having been appointed by the county
court in ls4i. -
Tn to 1877 the county court had
probate jurisdiction, but the business
and records were kept separate from
the county business. At the June
term, 1871. VIM. +. Stephenson was
named as administrator Of his broth

proposals Rumors have also been current
that general election is being planned for

A Norwegian friend who has just crossed

great naval battle and the recent Russian
successes are held to Indicate the turn Of the
tide. Here in London also more and more
people are looking for an early settlement
Of the great conflict that will be favorable
to us.
The fall in consols need cause no sur
prise, as they still are actually higher than
they were last November, when minimum
prices were removed Altogether, the stay
ing power Of the market has been wonder
full.
The latest news from Russia indicates
that paper money prices generally have
doubled or trebed but trade conditions
are patchy, owing to the difficulties Of trans
port. The new paper currency has driven
out both silver and copper coins Here in
England there has been no shortage of

COTTON PRICES DECLINE
AFTER SOARING AT START
Proft-taking Causes Drop Following
Active Opening

NEW YORK. June 2t.--Another active
start was made on the Cotton Exchange
this morning and prices rose 4 to , points,
ignoring the disappointing Liverpool cables.
Spot houses and wall street bought, with
Liverpool taking July, but selling some of
the late months.
Room traders operated on both sides of
the market, while some commission houses
sold The demand at the start was good
and July was run UP points on the call
BY the end of the first 10 minutes recessions
of 2 to points had been recorded, but the
tone continued firm.
Heavy realizing sales were we'll absorbed
during the FIRST hour, but caused more or
less irregularity and the market cased off
from the best after II o'clock under con-
tinued profit-taking, while there also may
have been some scattered selllng LOT re-
action July eased back to last nights
closing figures while new crop months sold
. or points net lower. New Orleans was
n good seller of July and october here
after the first half hour, while Western
houses were also sellers on the bulges sup
posedly TO take profits on old long accounts
The realizing movement carried prices
about 4 points net lower late in the morn
ing but If anything, the weekly report OF
the Weather Bureau was considered bullish
and prices steadied up or 3 points from
the lowest shortly after midday. Western
and wall street houses were heavy sellers
for profits during the morning, and there
was also considerable selling here for New
Orleans account,
Weather conditions In the South were un-
settled There were light scattered showers
and more indicated. Temperatures con-
tinucd about unchanged. Some interests
claim that there has been too much mois-
