Wamego, Kans. AiikGiltner. The democrats have decided to hold a mass convention at f-t. Marys in September. The Times will discuss the subject hereafter, Ed.

Sullivan shipped a load of eows to Kansas City Sunday night, accompanying them. Wanted; By Frank Cailloz, two miles and a haif northeast of Louisville, teams and men to break stubble.

By ojider of Committee, The leading editorial in last week's Agriculturist was a nauseating mes3 of palaver smeared on A. A. xownsena ior his gigantic efforts to save his wheat crop. As hough a man wouldn't naturally be expected to save his crops if possible. Weller is a stem-winaer.

What largely ails Stanley's contributor, Sioux Sails, Is he doesn't know heads trom tails Hedaresn't make an outright accusation, But sneakinely hints Abominable lies, that Stanley prints To his own condemnation, And lasting degradation. The sub-treasury and national bank discussions so prostrated Hill, ot the Recorder, that he was forced to lay down the pen and flee to the jungles of Iowa for rest and recuperation. We understand that he was threatened with a weakening of the spinal column. This together with menaced disintegration of the softer adipose tissue caused his friends (Crowl, etc) great uneasiness. Stanley's announcements at "$5 cash in advance" are not so numerous as to require any large mathematical education to figure out the amount that he wid receive.

They are still confined to that of N. C. Shriner. By this time we would think Mr. Shriner's notice would be cetting lonesome.

If he paid Stan lev's price we doubt if he will haye as manv votes in the convention as the notice cost him dollars. Bv the wav it has never been ex- ulained whv Const. Umscheid and Geo. W. Shehi.

two of Henrv Smith's bonds men, were not made to pay their part of Smith's deficit. An able attorney was employed by the other bondsmen and they were notified to come forward and pav, but they properly disregarded the summons, not having been informed where the money had gone and no proceedings having been commenced rD against Smith. Parents who have young children will be interested in the experience ot Mr. Alex, Moir, a prominent druggist at Britt, Iowa.

0 pshaw, Fowler, let's quit throwing mud at each other and fight the common enemy. It is mighty poor business any way, and like fighting with the lists pays least when best followed. And I admire your vim and "get up-and-get-there" style but not your bitter nersonal attacks. I think they do no eood. I am done with them fcr ever.

Blaine department of News. This correspondent of Gibraltar's con fesses to what we have said ait along, that he is a dirty mudslinger. We are glad that we have brought him to see the error of his conduct and that he has resolved to reform. As Fowler nor the Times doesn't throw mud his appeal is uncalled for. They deal in the truth-unvarnished and untarnished; but as for throwing mud, never, ''not in a hundred years." A writer in the Westmoreland Eecor der who signs himself asks, "What is the matter with the republican party," and proceeds to give three reasons why he is in favor of the Crawford county primaries in reference to the old conventions.

Here is the third reason "I have seen this one man politics demonstrated in appointments, for ex ample, the Wamego postmaster and the late meat inspector from this township There is nothing that will disgust an average man any more than just such work exhibited before their eyes. The meat inspector running on the alliance ticket for justice of the peace no longer than last election, at that. What can he do for the republican party? What has he done for the narty At the same time a man who has stuck to the party, worked with it, spent money for it, etc has to stand back for ust such char acters." It was only assistant "meat inspec tor" that was appointed from Wamego Hard up for an office is the man referred to, "who has stuck to the party, worked for it, spent money for it, that he should aspire to be an attache of a Kansas City packing house a3 assistant meat inspector." Uut isn't bet in open rebellion against the authority of Emperor Crowl? Where's the party lash? Has it wholly lost its virtue and their convention at Randolph August 20. C.

Force, the school board of Whea ton, were in the city, Monday, signing up a thousand dollars' worth of bonds the proceeds of which will be used in building an addition to their school house. Wheaton citizens acted wisely when they voted those bonds, for the town stood badly in need of better and more school room, in order to accom niodate her scholars. Pat Nagle writes W. Challis that the Cheyenne and Barapaho country will probably be open for settle about the first of November at least the east ern portion thereof. This region con tains a little more than 4,000,000 acres of land, and is traversed from west east by two of the biggest streams in the territory the Canadian and Wichita rivers.

Rush called on the Times last Saturday. He was returning from an extended trip through Tennessee, Georgia and other states. Two months ago the editor of the Times bet II. D. Eggers a three dollar hat that wheat would be worth a dollar a bushel in Pottawatomie county before Christmas.

Another week like last and we will have won the bet. Dollar wheat is sure to come. Several "pony" and one or two "Norman" kegs of hop tea have been drank iu town, lately. As it was private pro perty, we have no right to complain. Westmoreland Recorder.

This statement is not supposed to re fer in any way to L. D. Hart's three gallon ug. One of the longest-established and best-known business enterprises of Pottawatomie county is the general merchandise establishment of C. W.

Bitt-ruann, Louisville. Good goods, reasonable prices and fair treatment of customers have won lor the house a standing that any merchant might he proud of. It3 reliability in eyery way, like Ctesar's wife, is above suspicion. Having noticed the large invoices of new eoods received recently we made a remark to Mr. Bitt-mann on the subject and was informed that in the near future the largest stock carried by the house for a long time would be placed on sale.

Better times generally are at the door, produce and everything the farmer has to sell is in demand with an upward tendency, and in order to supply the trade that should follow this firm ha9 ordered an immense stock of goods that will complete throughout. C. W. Bittmann, the proprietor, has returned from Hutcninson and reestablished his residence in Louisville and will hereafter give the business his personal attention and supervision. No inferior goods will be kept in the establishment and questionable dodges and schemes to catch trade will not be resorted to, but he will not be undersold by any house in the county that deals in reliable goods and does a responsible business.

He does not pretend to compete with low grade wares or irresponsible dealers, He pays cash to the wholesale houses for his goods discounting all bills and gives his customers the benefit of what he saves in this way, which enablesjhim to offer better bargains than merchants who buy on time. His old customers hardly need any solicitation to patronize him for they are fully aware tbat they could not trade elsewhere and do better. However he appreciates their patronaee and will be pleased to have it continued. New customers will be surprised at the largeness of his stock and the cheapness of the goods. It is not often that you find an establishment that would he a credit to a large city in a country town.

There are cities of several thousand people without a store as complete as Mr. Bitt mann s. Our Abstract Books a Double Setare kept at the County Seat, and are carefully posted. ALL ORDERS PROMPTLY ATTENDED TO. CHILCOTT SISSON, Westmoreland, Kansas.

The following extract from a letter written by J. A. Starbuck, of Yorktown, Iowa, speaks lor itsell wo years ago, in har vest time, a voung man came 111 mv store said he had been binding wheat during the forenoon, and was so bad with diarrnaia and colic pains, that he would have to lay off unless he could get relief. I took a bottle of your diarrhoja remedy from the shell; gave him a dose; sold 111m the bottle, and told him I would give him the money back if it did no good. He came in next morning and said the single dose did its work so well, that he not only kept up his place during the atleruoon, but had worked all night; and had the price of the dose I gave him been three dollars, it would have been cheap.

I will further say, keep on with youi good work. You cannot recom mend your medicine to highly. Chamber. ain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhcca Remedy is one of the greatest medicines of the age; it cannot be beat. Wishing you much suc cess and prosperity which you richly serve.
