James Kelso, an old Chariton coun

north of Keytesville, but who' now re
sides at or sear Callao, Macon coun
ty, was in this vicinity a few days last
week in company with a gentleman by

of buying mules. They purchased 11
or 12 head of these Ion-eareu sons

The Courier is pleased to hear
that Mr. and Mrs. I. N. Rearer,
Drunswick photographers, who also
conduct a gallery in Keytesvile on
Friday and Saturday of each week,
were awarded one of three prizes fir
their display of cabinet photos at the
recent stale photographers conven
tion at Pet tie Springs. There were a
number of competitors for the prizes,
and we believe that Charition county
MLs Rose Stephenson of Linneus haa every reason to be proud of the
the accomplished music teacher and attainments of Mr. and Mrs. Reager
amiable young lady, who taught a J n executing such a inpcrtor class ol
dass in music in Keytesville during I photographic or k. In addition to
the last scholastic year, was in this I tte laurels of bcocg awarded a prize.

Keytesville merchants have, for the
most part, extended a very meager
patronage to their town papers daring
the past seascn, fcr the reason, per
haps, that they 4'catmot afljrd to pa
trcciz t.vo newspapers." and dislike
to give ens paper an ad." unless
they can also give it to the other pa
per. l)jt since they arc not disposed
to double their advertising expenses,
without any corrcpan Jiag benefits, the
only sensible thing left for them to do
i3 to decide whether the Courier cr
ihc Signal is most deserving of their
advcitising patronage and then act ac
cordingly. Unquestionably, pcorly sup
ported papers are a positive detriment
to the town in which they are publisn
ed, and from a purely business stand
point, if for no other reason, a choice
should be made between the two Key
tesviUe papers and the surviving sheet
patronized liberally by the enterprising
merchants. This course, we candidly
believe, would be for the best interests
of our town and would redound to the
good ol our merchants and their busi
ness. If the decision is against the
Courier, we will submit to the inevita
ble, make our adieus as gracefully as
possible, and leave Kcy tcsvi'lc to seek
more profitable and more appreciative
fields and greener pastures.
