Score by innings:
Forty Years Ago.

From the Kansas City Times.
After many ballots, through
which there was a deadlock,
Franklin of Jackson, Nickerson
of Johnson and Graves of La
fayette County dividing the
votes about equally among them,
the Democrats in their fifth dis
trict congressional convention
finally got together late last
night and named Alexander
Graves, a Lexington lawyer, as
their candidate for congress. The
fight had been long and more or
less bitter, but at the wind-up
everyone shouted for harmony
and predicted certain success at
the polls for Candidate Graves.

Lutherans Ordain Pastor.

The Grace Evangelical Church
of Lexington ordained and in
stalled their first resident pas
tor, the Rev. Theodore Dierks,
Sunday. This congregation
has been served by visiting pas
tors from Concordia, Higgins
vile and Sweet Springs. For
the last year they have been
served by Rev. Theodore Won
Schlichten, pastor of the Luther
an Church at Sweet Springs,
who installed the new pastor.
The ordination sermon was de.
livered by Rev. H. Dierks, pas
tor of the Church of Our Re
deemer, Kansas City, Mo-, who
also ordained his brother.
Starting out with only forty
members, this is an event Of
great joy to the Lutherans here
who hope to secure property in
Lexington and build a church Of
their own in the near future.
In the afternoon their Annual
Mission Festival was celebrated
with a large crowd from Hig
ginsville and neighboring con
gregations in attendance. Th'
sermon for the encouragement
and advancement of missions
was delivered by Rev. Mueller o.
Waverly, Mo. This is the sec
ond Mission Festival to be helC
in this city.
It is to be hoped that thl
Lutherans will materially ant
spiritually increase in the estab
fishing of their Lutheran ZiOl
in Lexington, and may be o
assistance in the advancement
of Christs Kingdom in this city

Athletics Lose to Higginsville

The Lexington Athletics lost
the first game of the second half
of the schedule to Higginsville
Sunday in twelve innings, 6 to
5. The game was interesting
throughout, there being lots of
hitting on both sides, and many
dazzling stops by the fielders.
King and Forschler were the op-
posing pitchers and both were
hit hard. King did some hitting
himself, while Froschler trip
pied along about the eighth in
ming with two on and tied the
count at five all. In the twelfth,
French, first up, beat out bunt,
was sacrificed to second, and
scored on a clean single.
These teams play next Sun.

BRIDGE COMMITTEE RE-
PORTS AT MASS MEETING
Report Accepted Unanimously
And Permanent Organiza-
ton Formed.

In response to a call by the
road and bridge committee that
had been appointed by the pres
ident of the Chamber of Com
merce to further the plans for
a Lafayette-Ra County bridge
and secure an extension of the
primary system to Lexington, a.
bout one hundred and fifty cit
liens met at the city hall Friday
night to hear what this commit
teen had accomplished, its views
on the situation, and to form a
permanent Organization.
Judge S. N. Wilson presided at
the opening Of the meeting and
after a temporary secretary had
been chosen in the person of F.
Lee Wallace, he made a brief
statement and called upon E. J.
McGrew, chairman Of the COM
mittee to review its work up to
the present time. Mr.. McGrew's
report was substantially the
same as has been printed in the
Lexington papers from time to-
time. He told Of their discour-
agements; of what seemed to be
impossible, of new leads and f.
nally of their interview with Mr..
Windrow, personal representa-
tive of Mr.. Gary, who gave them
certain facts and encourage
ments that led to the calling of
the mass meeting where $4,000
was authorized to engage the
services of Waddell & Son, con-
sulting engineers, of Kansas
City, to begin the preliminary
work for a bridge. Mr.. McGrew
was given rapt attention, and
his report was accepted by a u
unanimous vote.
Other speakers called upon
gave their impressions of the
trip to Jefferson City, and all
were of the opinion that Lexing-
ton will receive recognition by
the Highway Commission.
Judge Wilson then stated that
this committee was merely a
temporary committee, and that
it was now necessary to form a
permanent organization. A mo-
tion was made and carried that
the chair appoint a committee
of three to nominate officers and
give the organization a name,
Judge Wilson appointed E. ],
McGrew, H. F. Blackwell, and
/ Louis Minor. This committee
: reported as follows:

OF definite and fuller information it is to
be hoped that this resolution may not be
pigeonholed by the administration, or
buried under deluge OF departmental ALI
his. The situation is clear to some extent.
we are not at war with Nicaragua, nor
lave we been in the past. Nicaragua is not

ful That we would be there at all Yet de-
spite protests. and obviously at somebody's
direction, American marines have been sta
toned there since 1910.
Discussing the situation. the Boston Globe
pertinently remarks: 'rhc Congress of the
United States has the sole power to grant
war authority to the executive 1t has not
been consulted nor asked for that power as
between the United States and this Central
American nation. For twelve years we have
had the curious spectacle of a government.
supposedly susceptible to the influence of
public opinion, yet not compelled by that
public opinion to explain this militarstic
enterprise. Why are American armed
forces being quartered by the decade upon
small and helpless free state? Why
during this armed occupation. has the
united states government negotiated an i'm
portant treaty with Nicaragua when it
thereby lays itself open to charges of coer-
clon? The situation constitutes a grave
anront to the Central American nations"

The Special Session Called

that this is not the time for the adoption
