Sectional Association to be held at Rochester Oct 6 1889. CoiriiJTTEE. Chauncy Barnard, of Nocomis Illinois, is the'guest of E. R. Snialley.

Mr. Barnard is very jnuch pleased with this part of Kansas. He says from the looks of things, no one in Kansas will heed to go hnngry. Between disease and the many cheap preparations which are palmed off under the name of blood purifies, take your chances with disease, until you can procure Ayer's Sarsa-parilla the only reliable blood purifier! Sold by all druggists and dealers in medjciue. W.

II. Wilhour U. L. Democratic Candidate for county treasurer, was interviewing the voters in this locality Thursday. He made us a pleasant call, while in the city He is a pleasant gentlemen but he won't be the next Treasurer.

Catarrh is in the blood. No cure for this loathsome and dangerous disease is possible until the poison is thoroughly eradicated from the system. For this purpose, Ayer's Sarsaparilla is the best and most e-conomical medicine. Price $1. Six bottles, 5.

Worth $5. a bottle. AVe call the attention of our readers to the professional card of Dr. Geo. E.

Wright, wrhich appears in another column in this issue of the Index. The Dr. comes among us very highly recommended as an efficient physician and surgeon. We join our citizens in extending to him and his family a cordial welcome to our city. The Kansas Farmer, says: "It is not business to feed 824,00 worth of milk to a 87 calf, but that thing is being done all over Kansas, and still farmers wonder why times are hard.

If you can sell the milk to the factory and raise the calf from the skim milk you are all right. Neighborhoods having factories can do this others can not. Present indications all point to the fact that the people of this count', long noted for discrimination in regard to matters of public interest, are going to forever free themselves from the domination of the ring and elect men to fill the county offices who have honesty and ability, and not politicians who secured their nomination by a free use of money. Voice. "Jess so." From these people will come the astonishingly large majority for the entire Republican ticket.

"Whoop em up" Bro. Swartz, you are daily adding votes to this cer tain large republican majority, and should not "weary in well doing." CIIIKASKIA TOWNSHIP REPUBLICAN CONVENTION. There will be a Republican Convention held in the Van Buren building in Spivey, Kansas, on Saturday, October 26? 1889, at 2 o'clock p. m. for the purpose of nominating candidates as follows: One township Trustee, Clerk, and Treasurer; two Constables, and road overseers for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, road districts.

T. W. Pattewsox, Central Committeeman. Mr. John Cromwell one of the leading farmers of Macoupin county 111.

who has been the guest of E. R. Smalley his brother-in-law for some days has departed for his home. While in Kansas he visited different localities and was pleased with the country generally. He said he was much astonished at the great improvement of this locality since he was here eight years ago.

He said it was almost impossible for him to realize the great advancement that had been made. I. W. Rush, the present obliging and efficient Register of Deeds, and who will be his own successor next November, was down from Kingman Tuesday. As the day of election approaches, the certainty of his re-election becomes manifest to all.

No one has ever heretofore filed the office so acceptably to the people as he has, and his vote at the pnsuing election will be close to the top of the figures indicating the republican majorities. He stood in the front rank during the Nation's hour of peril, and he will be at the front when majorities are announced. R. D. Faught the next Sheriff of Kingman county, was down from the county capitol Monday.

Mr. Faught's chances for election have been good from the very first, and as the day of election comes nearer, his election grows more certain. The fact is, it is not a question "will he be elected?" but "what will his majority?" It is conceeded by all fair, minded persons that he will be whirled into the office, by the largest majority of any man who ever held the office before in this county. "Roll the ball along" and lets settle forever and aye, that at any and all times: for any and all Offices: for any and all situations of honor and trust, that man isprefered who stoodby his country in her hour of peril, to the man who staid at home.

F. R. TOPjisliA, KANSAS. WEDDING BELLS. Married, 16 at the residence of her father, Mr.

Edgar Henderson, Kingman, Miss Helen Henderson to Mr. John M. Tune, of Springfield, by Rev. Charles Henry Baggs. In response to 250 invitations, the elite of Kingman, with guests from Missouri, Indiana and Texas, met at at the residence of Major and Henderson to witness the marriage of their daughter.

Promptly at the appointed hour the bride, preseded by her maid of honor, Miss. Grace Hayden, of Fort Wayne, entered the beautifully decorated south parlor, and was met at the altar by the groom. Then followed the beautiful and impressive serviee of the Episcopal chrch, administered by Rev. Mr. Baggs, of Hutchinson, who officiated.

The beautiful brideNwas exquistely dressed in white moire and brocade, duchess lace and diamonds, which set off exquisitely the natural loveliness of face and form. She was attended by her sister Eva, attired in a very becoming costume of pale pink surah and white lace, and Miss, Jennie Montgomery, of Oswego, who looked charming in a dress of pale blue sai ah. The presents were numerous and costly, beautiful tributes expressive of the high esteem in which the young people are held.

We give below a report of a committee sent from Sumner Mo. to investigate a Davis Rankin butter and cheese factory: They say: We, the undersigned committee, selected by the business men of Sumner, and the farmers of the surrounding country, to visit the and Cheese factory, have the following report to submit: We reached Stanberry in the morning, in time to see the factory begin operations; found a large and well built fsctory, indeed a much better building than we had expected to find. One of the members of our committee, Mr. Utt, being a builder, made a very critical examination of the building, and pronunces it first class in every 'respect.

The machineiy we found to be the most perfect- We remained in Stan-berry the entire day, and saw the whole process of manufacturing both butter and cheese. We pronounce botb butter and cheese made by this factory to be of extra fine quality, and think it will bring top price in the market. We found the factory begun work with 5,000 lbs. of milk per day and in a few days were getting 8,000 lbs. with a steady increase, which in a few more days will reach 11,000 or 12,000 lbs.

per day. So popular has the factory become that 3 or 4 men who refused to take any stock it at first insisted on having extra shares issued to them at full par value, as they could not buy any of the original shareholders. Many of the farmers who had come in with their milk were seen and all seemed very much pleased with their factory. They said their cows were paying them from $4,25 to $6,30 a month each now, aud that cows which could be bought at $18,00 to $25,00 each before the factory was built could not be bought now for less than $20,00 to $30,00 a head. We would heartily recomend the building of a butter and cheese factory in Sumner by Messrs.

Davis Rankin, feeling confident that it will benefit every farmer and business man in our community. Committee. SPIYEY, The time table of the JL, O. G. trains is as fpllows: The passenger leaves Hutchinson daily at 7:15 a.
