THE FARMERS' EL
EVATOR AT MURRAY
The Stockholders to Meet Next Tues
day to Receive the Work.
There will be a meeting of the stock
holders of the Farmers Elevator Com
pany at Murray next Tuesday, Sept.
29th. to formally take over the new el
evator which they have recently had
constructed on the M. P. at that point
The elevator is a corrugated iron build
ing with a capacity of twenty thousand
bushels and i3 a modern up-to-date
building. The advent of this new com
pany in the field means much to the
farmers of the vicinity of Murray and
a great deal to the merchants and busi
ness men of that live town. It will
put a competing element into the mar
ket for grain there and result in better
prices for the product to the grower
while it establishes a new industry in
the town and by pushing up the price
in the market for grain will bring in
creased trade to this little city which
is already one of the best in the county.
The meeting will be largely attended,
the company having a total of one hun
dred and five stock holders everyone of
whom it is hoped will turn out and pass
upon the acceptance of the plant per
sonally. The elevator will be under the
management of Chas. Spangler a com
petent and worthy man. The company
owning and operating the plant is capi
talized at $10,000 and the officers of the
company are as follows : President,
W. D. Weeeler; Vice President, C. D.
Spangler; Secretary, W. H. Puis;
Treasurer Lloyd Gapen. Directors, W.
D. Wheeler, C. D . Spangler W. H.
Puis, L. H. Young, Lloyd Gapen, John
Spangler, and Glen Perry. It will be
be noted that the company is composed
of the strongest and best men in the
county and that it will be an unqualified
success cannot be doubted for a mo
ment. We still have plenty of fruit jars,
fruit jar caps aud rings.

caused from a scratch from a nail.
While working on a barn for Robert
Good, he slipped and fell from a scaf
fold, and in falling struck the hand
against a nail, and not thinking it of
much consequence, let it go for several
hours, when the wound began to look
very angry, and a physician was called
into requistion. Albert is now off duty
for a few days at least.
Twenty Cents For Choice Butter.
We are in need of good butter, and
will pay 20 cents for choice and 16 cents

sing nicely. The first number will

word at the bank, as the course is fine
this year and well worth your time and
money. Don't wait to be solicited but
buy your tickets now.
Leap Year Party a Great Success.
The leap year party was a great suc
cess in every way, and reflects great
credit upon the young ladies who had it
in charge. They certainly proved them
selves royal entertainers in every par
ticular. The dance opened promptly at 8:30
with the grand march and lasted until
after midnight. The girls received
many compliments upon the excellent
music, consisting of Hay's violin and
cornet, and was so much appreciated
by the young men of the party that
they have secured this same music for
their return dance. The boy's have
issued their invitations for the leap
year return dance.

Often The Kidneys Are
Weakened by Over-Work.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
It used to be considered that only
urinary and bladder troubles were to be
traceil to the kmneys,
but now modern
science proves that
nearly all diseases
have their beginning
in the disorder of
these most important
organs.
The kidneys filter
and purify the blood
that is their work.

An Ideal Home.
Recently James M. Holmes, of the
firm of Holmes & Smith, purchased the
residence property owned by Monte
Robb, and until the death of his wife,
occupied by Col. J. B. Seybolt. The
residence proper contains seven com
fortable rooms with several closets and
aV'special den" for Jim. The building
is modern with water in the house,
furnace and bath room. Mr. Holmes
is now engaged in having the same re
papered throughout, and having the
floor and wood work in general finished
in hard pine and the flooring painted
to match. While a reporter of the
Journal was in Murray this week he
had an opportunity of inspecting the
repairs being done, and can say that
Mr. and Mrs. Holmes can soon boat
of being domiciled in a home that is "a
beauty and should be a joy forever."
And may Mr. and Mrs. Holmes both
live long to enjoy their comfortable
home, as it is, in truth, an ideal one.

Glenwood Granite Works.
The Journal calls the especial atten
tion of its readers to the adver
tisement of the Glenwood Granite
Works in another part of this issue.
These works are among the largest of
their character in the west, and every
monument they have erected in Cass
county, speak in tones louder than we
can proclaim of their master workman
ship. The Journal people have known
C. P. Hale, the president of the estab
lishment, for many years, and his re
cord for honesty and integrity is above
reproach. All work put out by the
Glenwood people is warranted to be
just as represented, and if it is not so,
it will be made so. If any of our read
ers desire a stone to be placed over
their dead relatives, we have no
hesitancy in recommending them to the
Glenwood Granite Works, at Glenwood,

LAST DAY AT CINCINNATI.

Speaks to National League of Repub
lican Clubs Bryan Rebukes
President for Believing Charge
Against Haskell.
Cincinnati, Kept. 23. Th real activ
ities of tho campaign have Im-kuii for
William II. Taftf the Republican pre
Identlal candidate. Three political al
dresses were the demands upon him
Tuesday, his last day In th city that
was to have been the scene of his en
tire pre-election work. Karly Wednen
day he began his Journey of speech
making through the west.
Not since the candidate was not!
fled officially of ' his nomination haj
the city of Cincinnati been so thor
oughly awake politically as Tuesday
night, when marchlnf? clubs from In
dlanapolls, Columbus, Hamilton an.i
other places In the Buckeye state lent
the blaze of torch and the blare of
trumpet as an escort to the candidal
who was the principal feature of th
rally of the National League of Re
publican clubs at Music hall.
Makes a Talk to Negro Baptists.
At noon Mr. Taft addressed the dele
Kates to the national convention of
negro HaptistB who bad come here
from Lexington, Ky., for the purpose.
Previous to this he looked in upon the
work of the convention of the National
League of Republican clubs and at
once was introduced for a speech. In
these two efforts the candidate wa
brief. His expression of sympathy for
the struggles of the negro race elicited
warm applause from the Baptist mini
ters, who met the candidate at th
Sinton hotel, and his words to the con vention
were warmly received.
Pays His Respects to Bryan.
It was at night, however, that Mr.
Taft made his strongest, effort. After
reviewing before an audience, which
from the first showed a decided likiiii;
for him, the record of the Republican
party as one of action and future re
liability, he depicted bis idea of tb-i
Democratic policy of "promise," an 1
then devoted himself to an atialysin
of .Mr. Hryan. This was the lirst tim
Mr. Taft had paid his respects to his
opponent in anv extended manner, an l
j what he said was listened to with
Rreat interest and considerable show
of enthusiasm.
Preceding the night niee'lnc; th
parade was witnessed by crowds
which thronged the streets. Tbos
who spoke, besides Mr. Taft, were
President John Hays Hammond of the
League, Rev. Dr. John Wesley Hill,
pastor of Metropolitan Temple, New
York, and Job Hedges, an attorney of
New York.
Hammond Re-Elected President.
Mr. Hammond was re-elected by ac
clamation as president of the Repub
lican National League in the after
noon. A change in the constitution
was adopted providing for four vice
presidents in order to recognize a!!
sections, and the following were
chosen: Hairy II. Myers of Llttl
Rock, Ark.; W. W. Heffelfinger of
Minneapolis, Minn.; Winston Churchill
of New Hampshire; John Albus of St.
Joseph, Mo. For treasurer, Chauncey
Dewey of Chicago, the retiring secre
tary, was elected, the secretaryship
being taken by G. Snell Smith of New
York city, national organizer, who will
hereafter combine the two offices.
An invitation for the next conven
tion was received from Atlanta. Ga.
Bryan Rebukes Roosevelt.
Detroit, Mich., Sept.. 2'). The re
markable spectacle of a presidential
candidate rebuking the chief execu
tive of the nation for making state
ments deemed to be unjustified, was
witnessed Tuesday when William J.
Bryan in a letter to President Roose
velt defended Gov. Haskell of Okla
homa, treasurer of the Democratic na
tional committee, against the charge
that he had unlawful connections with
the Standard Oil Company. Mr. Dryan
serves notice on the president that a
the candidate of the Democratic party
"I shall not permit any responsible
member of the Republican organiza
tion to misrepresent the Democratic
party in the present campaign."
The letter concludes with the state
ment that the Democratic party is
making "an honest and honorable"
fight in defense of its principles and
policies, and expects and will demand
honorable treatment from those who
are in charge of the Republican cam
paign." Democrats Looking for Money.
New. York, Sept. 2.1. Members of
the eastern campaign committee and
prominent Democrats in the east held
an extended meeting at Democratic
headquarters late Tuesday to ta'k
over ways and means of securing
funds to conduct the presidential fight
east of the Allegheny mountains.

initiative. The situation in the vari
ous states was also talked over, as
well as the progress of the campaign.
