Albert GoOde Elliott

Another young man, native of
our community, has been laid to
rest in the city cemetery to await
the call of his Maker. One of
the sturdy young men Of a large
and prominent family; popular
because of that quality in men
which invites respect and conf
dence in loyalty. Alb Elliott as
he was known to all his old ac-
quaintances, belonged TO a set of
young citizens than whom there
has been no better in many re.
spects. He grew to manhood
and was educated in this COM
munity and for some time was
engaged in business enterprises
but a few years ago took up his
residencein in Kansas City where
ne resided to the day of his
death.
February 10, 1892 Albert G.
Elliott was united in marriage
to Miss Susie LESLEY of this
county and to the union was
born one child, Jennie Vaughan
who was married to Harry Ber-
oneus, the mother dying in Aug.
and leaving one child, Harry jr.
Albert G. Elliott was married
the second time in 1910 to Miss
Lula Thomas in K. City who sur
wives him.
The mother of the deceased,
Mrs. Mary A. Elliott died,:Nov.
26, 1892 and his father, Thomas
7. Elliott died March 4, 1900. A
brother Erastus died in st. Louis

COX AND WET?
Many Delegates Changing Front
Prohibition Paramount Issue
Reed on Hand

The principal idea among dele
gates to the national convention
about to open at Frisco is to get
together and have no such fiasco
ar any stage of proceedings as
characterized the Republicans
gathering at Chicago. Even wo.
men delegates are willing to
compromise on the question Of
light wines, beer and cider and
endorse a plank permitting these
beverages. 1t is certain that the
prohibition question will occupy
the convention at the beginning
and will have to be disposed of
amicably between vets and drys
before any other important sub
jects will be properly considered.
Gov. Cox is in the lime light
for the nomination so far as talk
among delegates indicate at this
time. DR.. Jenkins is determined
to present the name of McAdoo
for nomination in spite of the
fact that he has been instructed
not to do so by the distinguished
gentlemen twice. McAdoo posi-
lively declined to allow his name
to be put before the convention
but the Missouri delegates may
be expected to cut any sort o.
sorry figure. President Wilson
may allow his name TO be used
in connection with the nomina-
tion if it is clear THAT his nOmi-
nation would be practically una.
nimous which it wont. Palmer
is not mentioned but vice presi-
dent Marshall may show up
strong under certain circum-
stances.
Senator Jas. A. Reed is in Fris-
co and will be seated as a dele
gate from the fifth Mo. dist. be,
yond question and then some-
thing spectacular may be looked
for when the arena is cleared
for Bryan and Reed. All re-
ports indicate that Cox and a
wet plank will come close to 60
ing thru with a whoop in spite
of Bryan but it is early to pre-
dict anything accurately.

Rain is badly needed.

We overheard a young man
who has engaged to help a near.
by farmer in his wheat harvest
say that 81 a day, board and lod-
ging, was entirely too much;
that he knew he could not earn
that money, work as hard and
fast as he might. But he said.
that is the price for hands at
other places and here and of
course he would accept. He was
right in both remarks but if the
wheat raiser gets himself in the
clutches of the speculator and
has to accept less than $2.25 a
bushel, he may not have much
left for himself out of the pro.
ceeds of his crop.
The fight between Irish fac.
tions at-Londonderry is not only
severe but passes understanding.
Employment of machine guns
and raking the streets with a
CALLING fire is calculated to dis
courage those who have and are
yet contending for Irish freedom
England certainly has trouble
before her now and the attitude
of Lloyd George can do nothing
less than heighthen hatred for
Britain in the Irish heart,
