Missouri's game nnd fish Jaws
are being very rigidly enforced
in some sections. A man con
victed of dynimiting r stream
for fish was lined ?r00 in Joplin
last week.
The President is staving in
Washineton with Congress not
withstanding more pleasing
plans which he liad made for the
summer. Like all other men in
public and commercial life he
would be pleased to see the flow
of oratory cease and note the re
sult of tinal roll calls on the tariff
bill.
Missouri is beginning to make
a noise ia the business and in
dustrial world like the buzz of
much machinery and the hurry
ing to and fro of armies of busi
ness men. Now that this grand
old state is permanently separat
ed from the solidly Democratic
South her growth will be marve
lous. Chinamen like pretty white
girls"alle same likee 'Melican
man," and they seem to have a
charm for susceptible American
women who haven't sense enough
to detect the guile of the heathen.
Our young women can find devils
among young men of their own
race without trying the Mongol
ian type.
An exchange through mistake
published an article to the effec t
that a certain man, a Democrat,
was craey and when they found
out it was the wroDg man, took
it back. This is anew departure
as the paper in question has oft
en intimated in the past that
Democrats both individually'and
at large were crazy and the state
ment has never been taken back
and seldom even denied
About this time next year the
candidates for party nomination
will be sweating under the pres
sure of campaign anxiety and
will pay little heed to the ther
mometer. The primary cam
paign of 1910 will be a hot one.
Republican candidates will be
plentiful and the Democratic can
didates will be numerous enough
to make the game interesting.
Governor Hadley has the sin
cere sympathy of the people of
the state in the sorrow which
the death of his good father has
brought to his heart and his
home Major Hadley was a
princely gentleman, a good citi
zen of the state in which he lived,
a devoted and wise father, and
was justly proud of the distinct
ion which has come to his son.
It is to bo deeply rek'retted that
he could not live to see his gifted
son elevated to a still higher
place in tho service of the people.

TliO campinc mid lishing sea
son is at hind when some people
abandon tho comforts of home to
live in a damp lent, out insect
hash, jdeepon the Kround, and

"lteforo (starting' to town pick
up tne local newspaper and see
who it is that wants your trade,"
says an exchange. "It is the
merchant who advertises that
wants your trade, and you shouMd
in all faireess recognize his invit
tation and call on first. If he
hasn't in stock what you want
then go out and hire a boy to
show you where the other stores
in town are located.
Many people who advertise; foil
into the common error or belief
that they shouM not advertise
during the dull season. That is
the time of all times to advertise.
When interest Hags it needs the
stimulant of good attractive ad
vertising. People need as much
to eat or wear during the dull
season as any other time. They
are not interested because you
do not make things interesting
Mr. Business Man and it is your
business to make things interest
ing. To do this you mast adver
tise. Hoys, did it ever occur to you
that the business men of a town
know you better than your par
ents do? Their eyes are on you
when you are least aware and
they know your habits as well as
you know them yourself. You
may slip away from father and
mother, you may decieve your
bestfiiend, elude the watchful
eye of your teacher, trifle with
the confidene of your Sunday
school teacher, but you can't and
don't fool the business man of
this town when they have a pos
tion to fill- Stick a pin in this
and resolve to tote fair
with yourself and everybody
else. Urich Herald.
A freak oil well was brought
in on the Ranson tract of land in
the Sour Lake field recently. It
is a gusher of the old type, but
it does not have a regular How.
It has eight outbreaks every
twenty-four hours, and at each
eruption it gushes just fifty bar
rel of oil. The period of activity
lasts only five minutes. The
well then suddenly subsides and
for four hours it is perfectly
quiet, not a sound escaping from
its surface opening. When the
time arrives for another eruption
the earth around the well sudden
ly begins to tremble, a loud sub
terranean roar is heard, and out
of the pipe spouts oil to a height
of more than 100 feet.
It's mighty hot to talk politics,
but the farmers who are now
toiling in the sun to reap wheat
for which they will get more than
a dollar a bushel are thinking of
the political conditions which
have niddo the farm more valua
ble because crops hum become
more valuable. Kuch farmers
do not noed to be told that the
best politics to talk about are the
politics of the great party which
has made prosderity and high
prices for tho products of thu
toiler a possibility and a reality
in a country where wheat sold
for fifty cents a bushel and
farm labor was the least reward
ed of any work done by Ameri
cans. The farmers have grown
weary of the isms of Hryanisia,
which cannot Le realized upon in
the open markets' They want
political policies which will keep
the flow of uionev toward the
farm instead of draining the
farm to keep up the banks and
the brokers of tho city.

Iwln Necessities.
The render of a newspaper
will readily ngn-i that it is noc
essary for a merclnnt, with any
pre tention to progrcssivs nes. to
advertise Yet this would not
bo true if it were not equally
true that it is necessary for the
render of tho newspaper, if he
or she have any pretentions to
progressiveness, to read and an
swer tho ads.
These are twin facts, twin nee
essities. Whatever is of enough
importance for the merchant to
pay for the privilege of saying
is of too much importance for
the reader to overlook. And
just as advertising is the way of
the progressive store, so is the
reading of advertising tho way
of the progressive person.
.Measure your progrcssiveness
by this standard and you will not
go far wrong.
The advertised goods are usu
ally cheaper, sold at less urofit
to draw trade, and the ad reader
gets the savings.
It is the saved that counts.

Saturday night, and the week's
work done, and the Old Man home
with a bunch of mon! You see
him sit on the cottage porch, and
ho puffs away at a five cent torch,
while the good wife sings at her
evening chores, and the children
gambol around out doors. The
Old Man sits on his work day
hat, and he doesn't envy the
plutocrat; his debts are paid and
he owns his place, and he'll look
a king in the blooming face; his
hands are bard with brick and
loam, but his heart is soft with
the love ot home! Satu rday niaht,
and it's time for bed! And the
kids come in with a buoyant
tread; and they hush their noise
at the mother's look, as she slow
ly opens a heavy book, and reads
the tale of the stormy sea, and
the voice that quieted Galileo.
Then away to bed and the cairn
repose that only honesty ever
kuows. Saturday night, and the
world is st ill, and, and it's only
the erring one who finds things
ill; there is sweet content and a
sweeter lest, where a good heart
beats in a brave man's breast.

Th' city f Uii.h Hill needs a
hotter equipped lire department.
This fact has been proven time
and again when we have had
disastrous lires which might
have been prevented or at least
miMe unimportant by the use of
up-to-date apparatus. It is not
that the firemen do not do their
duty or that they are inefficient,
but that they are handicapped
with a lack of up-to dale mater

Nearly all cities as large us
Rich Hill and many that are
smaller have horses and hire a
man who is always ready to drive
the hose cart to a tire. This
would be a proper step in the
right direction. Several of our
merchants have already signified
a willingness to assist ir a move
ment to secure these things was
st tited. It only needs someone
who will take hold of the thing
and push to make it a success.
Let's get at it.
