If that section does not absolutely
leave the distribution of the publica

HAYTI, - MISSOURI
Our statement of last week with ref
erence to the two sections of law cov
ering the letting of the publication of
the official ballot in two papers was
questioned by the gentlemanly (!)
editor ot the Gossom paper, and, that
our friends may know definitely the
truth of our assertions we give tho two
in question.
The Argus says: "Tho gen
tlemanly editor." No doubt that
is a misnomer with the Argus
for straight democracy, true
blue and dependable. He again
says: "The Gossom paper." No
doubt that is another misnomer
intended to compliment the Her
ald for its democracy, for Judge
Gossom was the democratic can
didate the Argus tried hardest
to defeat. So much for that.
Judge Gossom was the nominee
of the democratic party for
prosecuting attorney, and he was

Publish he attempted to quote scripture
to Christ. The above section,
The Argus says if the above
is not right, "then we do not
know how to read plain English."
Of course a man so biased and
prejudiced as the Argus is .not
supposed to read with an under
standing. "The editor of this paper is
not an attorney at lav;," says the
Argus. Then if lie is not, why
does he try to construe the law.
Now, as to the Argus' contract
with the county, that is not worth
the paper it is written upon.
There is no law authorizing such
contracts except in cities having
100,000 or more population, and
in granting a contract to the Ar
gus to do all such advertising
the county court exceeded its

"Sec. .r851. Clerk to

state and also those tiled in his office. '

i lications in each of such newspapers ;
f)b(.)"), quoted by the Argus is in
ARTICLE .", and does not relate
to ARTICLE 8. Besides, notice
the language in the last quoted
section, which expressly states.
"IN THIS ARTICLE." Fur
ther, Section fi8r1, in Article 3,
relates to nominations, which
shall be advertised as set out,
while Section ."iSOri, in Article r,
tlons just quoted that the Pemiscot
Argu bid on the county printing and
was awarded the contract. The law
dealing with tho printing of the lists
of nominations does not specify parti
san papers, but thu publication is
made on account of the county as a
public cbarve. 'I hi? entirely disproves
the contention nt the two associate
judges that the Argus was not en
titled to one publication under its
contract.
Mr. Tiusiey, comity clerk, says the
bid ui aktd for upon the em basis
and not m a lump sum, Unit all the
other papers bid upon the basis, and
that lie under. tond the bid of the
Herald man over the phono to be fifty
cents (per square for the first insertion
and twenty -the tor the second.
Of course there w:is no oc
casion for the Argus to quote
Suctions ."!r7 and f88, in Chapter
8, relating to "advertisements
and public notices," and the Ar
gus truthfully says that the last
two section's have no bearing,
whatever, upon the question at
issue. These sections only regu
late advertisements and public
notices with which the county
court ha's to dual, such as drain
age notices, board of equalization
doings, etc., and do not cover
either the primary or guieral
election advertising.
But for the benefit of tho Ar
gus, we will once more publish
the opinion of Attorney. General

State of Missouri, and also the
opinion of Prosecuting Attorney

I Now, the county cleric bears
the same relation to thu county
that the secretary of state bears
to the state, iind the reason the

is to place the work in the hands
of the newspapers that will do
the greatest good to the greatest,
number of people. The statutes
fix the price to be paid for the
work.
"The learned editor and his
able counsel," quoth the Argus.
Verily, tho Argus must have it
very sore spot. Of course the
people of Pemiscot county are
'quite well acquainted with the
editor of this paper, find, as for
lour attorney. Col. Arthur L. Oli
ver, we believe the people of
I'eiuiscot county require no
words of commendation. The

covers the whole thing, and our
j contentions were right, as were
' also the action of Judges Foust

Mrs. Jane Callehan suffered from womanly trouble for'
nearly ten years. In a letter from Whitevillc, N. C, she
says: "I was not able to do my own housework. My
stomach was weak, and my blood was wrong. I had back
ache, and was very weak.. I tried several doctors, but they
did me no good. I used Cardui for 3 or 4 mouths, and now
1 am in the best health I have ever been. I can never praise
Cardui enough." It is the best tonic, for women.
Whether seriously sick, or simply weak, try Cardui.
