That the pen is still mightier than
the sword is shown in the fact that
more steel is used in the manufac
ture cf pens than in all the sword
and gun factories in the world.
. It is proposed to admit Arizona,
New Mexico and Oklahoma to
statehood in an omnibus bill. It
lias been inferred that each of them
would want at least a band wagon
or a tallyho.
Italv has a surplus this year of
$6,500,000, instead of a deficiency,
as for several years past. Her

friends predicted for him when he

Mayor Heed of Kansas City, says
he is for municipal ownership "first,
last and always, forever. Private
companies may be able to manufac
ture light cheaper than a munici
pality, but they don't sell it
cheaper."
Upon investigation Lady Henry
Somerset has come to the conclu
sion that we are rather temperate
people as compared to those cf the
United Kingdom. It has been sus
pected all along that Lady Henry
was making a mistake in going so
far away from home to do her mis
sionary work.
The Supreme Court of the State
has reversed the first cf the St.
Louis boodle cases that has reached
it. This was what was expected.
It will be noticed by the public
that the reversal is the result of
technicalities raised by the lawyers,
and not on the merits of the case.
The Supreme Court does not lay
the boodler wa not guilty, but he
was not tried right The court does
not say he was not charged with a
ctime in the indictment, but he was
not charged in just the right form
of language. No wonder we have
mob laws in this country.
According to late trade statistics,
China has increased her imports
from the United States since iSy
at a much more rapid rate propor
tionately than from any other nation.
American cotton goods and Hour
are well received in China. Cotton
goods, made in Chinese cottages
from fomgn yams, supply the prin
cipul ijum-.tity ot that class of goods
consumed in China. Foreign coun
tiies buy American cotton and man
ufactute the yarn for the Chinese.
Why shouldn't we make the yarn
instead of sending the raw cotton to
be spun abroad ?

If you want to learn all about the

to Jjs. Iiaiker, General Passenger

railway system at St. Louis, and
get one of their splendidly illustrat

it you will km n that Texas ranks
first in the production of cotton,
wool, cattle, horses and petroleum,
secvind in sugar, in'ud in fruits and
Vegetables, fourth in corn and iifih
in wheat and lumber. If you want
to go there the M. K. Si T. System
will tskejtui to the best counties
in the best section of the largest
state in the union. This little book
is full of pirtty pillules and useful

in some measure with the greatness

$20,000,000 Fund Completed.
The Rev. E. F. Mills, corres
ponding secretary of the Methodist
Episcopal thank offering fund, is
completing his final report at Roch

What It Costs.
The law requires every candidate
for office to file an itemized account
of money expended to secure his
nomination and election, with the
recorder of deeds and county clerk
The law also limits the amount to
a certain per cent of the salary of
the office. The intention of the law
is a!! right, but it can be easily
avoided if desired.
The foilowiug sworn s'.asements
are on file in the olliee of the county
clerk.
The most unique is that of Hon.
Geo. P. Hucktby. Republican can
didate for State Senate from the 16
Senatorial district, as follows:-
"I. Geo. P. Huckcby. being duly
sworn, upon oath state that the fol
lowing ttatement sets fotth in detail
all sums of money, except all sums
paid for actual traveling expenses
including hotel and lodging bills,
contributed or disbursed, expended
or promised by me and to the best
of my knowledge and belief, by any
other peton or persons in my be
half, in whole or in part, in enJeav
oring to secure or hi any way in
connection with my nomination or
election to the cilice of State Sena
tor for 16th Senatorial District of
Missouri, at the election held Nov
4 th, 1902, or in connection with the
election of any other person or per
sons at said election. I did not
spend one cent beyond traveling
and lodging expenses, to secure my
election, or anv one else's."

Iter. Irl IC Hicks 1003 Almanac
To say that this splendid work
of science and art is finer and better
than ever, is stating it mildly. The
demand for it is far beyond all pre
vious years. To say that such re
sults, reaching through thirty years,
are not based upon sound sense and
usefulness, is an insult to the intel
ligence of the millions. Prof.
Hicks, through this great Almanac,
and his famous family and scientific
journal, Word and Works, is doing
a work for the whole people not
approached by any other man or
publication. A fair test will prove
this to any reasonable person. Add
ed to the most luminous course in
astronomy for 1003, forecasts of
storms and weather are given, ai
never before, for every day in the
year, all charmingly illustrated with
nearly two hundred engravings.
The price of single Almanac, in
cluding postage and mailing, is
thirty CKNTS. Word and Works
with the Almanac is $1.00 a vear.
Write to Word and Works Pub
