J. W. DANIELS ,
County Clerk.
A Joplin , Missouri paper says that a
voman preacher at that place recently
stopped in the middle of a discourse
md picking up a Bible said she was go- .
mr to throw it at a man \vhj was un- ]
'uithful to his wife. As she > ire\v her
irui forward every man in the church ,
nit one ducked under the seat. After
jivin.f the mun , who stood without
liuching , a good puff , as the news
apers called it , she learned that he
vas a deuf mute. The revelation was
little discouraging until the dodgers
ixplained that they had seen a woman
rhrow a stone at a hen and knew
nighty well that she could not hit the
'ellow she was throwing at , and dodged
is a matter of nece.ssity , not of con-
icience.
At a meeting of the citizens of Val-
mtine , for the purpose of passing
esolutions of respect on the death of
Colonel John M. Stotsenburg" of the
st regiment , Nebraska volunteers ,

- = t- . . Out for Congress.
For a long linio- friends of the editor
; ; h ? various 'parts of the sixth congressional -
ional district have urged him to run
for congress , but up to this time ho has
always said nay. An article in the
Ru-hville .Standard of la > t wr-ek has
however caused him to change his
mind , and he now places himself in the
hands of his friends , and will await the
action of the conventions which will
name W. L. Greene's successor. Judge
Westover has withdrawn fronrthe r.ice ,
Mike Harrington has said he will not
accept the nomination , and we are told
Judge Ilarbaugh is after something
else. This leaves the northern part of
the district without u candidate , and
because the editor believes with the
Standard that the next nominee should
ome from this section of the state if I
possible , he announces his candidacy. !
In doing this he realizes the fact that i 1
he lays himself open to the charge of
ollice seeking , but jis ho has never be
fore sought a nomination or appoint
ment of a political ch iracter and never
ran for oflice , he believes that charge Jo j
be of no weight against him. He is
now a democrat , and always has been ;
he never changed his political belief ; he
is a young man , and is not untangled
with any political clique or ring ; he has
no capital backing him , and if nomi
nated and elected would h ive no interests - I
ests to serve except those of hs ; con |
stituents. His position upon questions j
of the day is .veil knoAM to bj orih > '
dox so far as politics is concerned , and j
the files of his paper ever since the
memorable campaign of " 9(5 ( are cited in
proof of this.
This may be a novel method of cam
paigning for a nomination , but he
iloes't believe in dark horses , and has
nothing to conceal. He is a newspaper
man and believes in the power of the
press and to the newspapers especially
ic appeals for support.

The above is one of the most pleas-
u bits of news we have learned in a

east one small warm corner in our
icarts for him. He served our people
\vo terms as prosecuting attorne } ' ,
.nd last fall made a harder race for

IQV. possessed of a happy facult- for
