BUTLER, MISSOURI, WEDNESDAY JULY 25, 1SS3.
XO ;u
There was another storm last (
Friday niht in Iowa, Minnesota, j
Illinois. Wisconsin and Michigan, j
This is the worst .season for storms j
that was ever experienced. !
Lexington Intelligencer : The
Ft. Scott, St, Louis and Chicago rail
road project iooks like a pretty heal
thy bantling just now, despite the
doleful predictions of some people.
When it comes to new railroads peo
ple'? views are sn biased by the j
point from which they look at the
thihg.
Bullcne, Moore & Emery, of Kan
sas City, paid out during the past
year $12. ooo for advertising. The
coming year they will greatly in
crease that amount. Mr. Hullene
stated m an interview that no busi
ness, however 6inall, can be run suc
cessfully without printers' ink. The
firm does most advertising when
times are dull and they thus run off
their stock, lay in a new one and are
prepared for the business revival.
Every railroad that passes central
ly through the county increases the
price of land $5 an acre at least. It
really exceeds that. JJates county
contains S40 sections or 537,600 acres.
At $5 an acre this gives $2,6SS,ooo.
That is a good round sum but falls
much short ot the real increase in
value. Who says it don't pay to give
the paltry sum of $30,000 to $40,
000 to secure a road ?
Two widows of Revolutionary
soldiers are living in Uhio, Mrs.
Catharine Ciine, of Cincinnati, and
Mrs. Davis of Perry county. Mrs.
Kline receives a pension ot SS a
month. They will both attend the sol
diers' reunion at Columbus this w'eVk
and will be the two most interesting
persons there. When the only two
surviving widows of soldiers, who
fought in Washington's army, meet
there will be much talk of old times
and valorous deeds recounted by
their husbands.
Mr. Nicholsays his company will
purchase the Emporia road at its
actual cost to present owners. The
proposition to run on the track of
the Odessa road irom Walnut to But
ler, is based solely on the question
of cost. The east line of Bates can
be reached by way of Butler for
$100,000 less than through Rich
Hill. Railroads are built to make
money and that is why the Emporia
may come to this city. Butler will
do her utmost to secure this through
line from the West to St Louis.
It is reported that another railroad
is to be constructed from Kansas
Citv via Belton to Rich Hill by par
ties interested in developing the oil.
If oil will bring railroads, would it
not be a cood nlan for Rntlcr tr nut
down a few wells? This citv devotes I
its attention to buildinsr up other
places to the exclusion of its own in
terests.
Mrs. M. M. Clardy, State E vange

perance Union, will be in Butler on
July 2Sth, 29th and 30th. She will

TRIED IV AX HOCK.
The commercial Gazette of Marys
ville, Ky., says that this afternoon,
as soon as the jury in the Cooper case
retired, the emmet guards escorted
Samuel Bulger from jail to the court
amid a great crowd of people on the
streets. He was to be arraigned tor
rape in the court room, and the in
dictment was read to him. His at
torneys told him not to criminate
himself unless his mind was perfect
ly clear. He replied that his mind
was perfectly clear. he was guilty
and he wanted to be hung legally.

little trouble as possible in the trial.
A jury was impanneied and be re

ten minutes they returned a verdict
of guilty with sentence ot death. Bul
ger received the verdict unmoved,
and was returned to jail in one hour
from the time he was taken out.
