torn up with bitches and piled up in tn
center with gravel, some two months age
! and all the smooth, level places made roug
and uneven. We presume, though, the
may become comfortably passable by tn

The Ten-Trip Communication Tickets can
we understand, now be procured for tn
usual price, $3.50 at the Chouteau Avenu
Depot, st. Louis. This year, though, the,
are limited to the 1st of October and AFFORD
transportation but for one person whose
name is written on the ticket at the time OF
purchase. Not so desirable as the old I'm.
limited, good for any one, but still quite
convenience to those individuals who wish
to spend the Summer Sundays in the Valley
An Italian was before the city authorize,
one day last week on a charge of peddiing
without license. He plead guilty and fine
and costs TO the amount of 50 We're assessed
against him. The defendant said he dadn't
the money and would go to Jail, but as Sher-
III WhitwOrth was about to turn the lock
on him he weakened and, leaving his pack
of goods as security, went out in town and
returned in the course of couple hours
with the amount necessary to redeem his
wares and secure his freedom.
We are in receipt of program of eXer-
| cises of the Twenty Eighth Annual Session
| of the Missouri Teachers Association to be
held at Sweet Springs, Mo-: June, 18th, 18th
and Goth, 1889. The secretary of the Associ-
alton, Mr.. l.. f. Wolfe, of Moberly, writes
us that the endeavor is to make this the
most interesting and profitable session the
Association has ever experienced and it is
especially desired that every county in the
State may be represented. On County Com
missioners, in particular, would Mr.. w. have
Us impress the Importance of being present
at this gathering.
We understand that there is saloon at
Pilot Knob which flagrantly violates the
Sunday law. We last week criticised the
Sunday beer selling by Middlebrook dram
shop keepers, and, as the REGISTER makes
no determinations when it comes to viola
lions of the law, we call the attention of the
authorities to the fact that this saloon at
Pilot Knob is open every Sunday, and, we
understand, does a fiourishing business on
that day, Justice to the saloon keepers who
do obey the law, saying nothing of the rights
of an outraged public, demand that these
Sunday saloons should be closed. And, as
it must be done, let it be done quickly.
Our Republican friends, assisted by one
or two patriots from afar, had diamond
drill meeting at the American House Mon |
day night. For some ineXplicableireason we |
have not been furnished with an account of |
the proceedings and are, therefore, unable |
l,o %Io
individual who wishes to know the result of |
their deliberations can doubtless learn them |
by studying closely the policy of the admin
istratlon on all important matters of State |
for the next few days after the conclusions of |
this mighty and profound caucus shall have
been waited to President Harrison's ears.
AS deep students of our institutions the Iron
County Republican leaders do take the con-
fectionery.
The Legislature adjourned last Friday and
Hon. Mann Ringo returned home the fol-
lowing Sunday. In this connection it gives
US pleasure to note that Mr.. Il. has made us
an efficient, faithful and pains taking Legis
ator. During the whole session he missed
but one vote and has PROBABLY been absent
at roll-c III few times as any member of
House. Although this was Mr.. RS first
term his abb ity early IN the session placed
him in the front ranks and alongside many
Of the old timers. How well he has main
tanned this position anyone acquainted with
he House proceedings we'll knows. He is
one of the most successful representatives
We have ever had, and his constituency will
doubtless bear that fact in mind for future
reference.
Nothing definite has developed, since our
asst issue, of the whereabouts of the fugitive
Robbs, who committed the murder at Mid
llebrook Sunday before last. The usual
'umors are, of course, aioat One, to the
Effect that Robb's has secretly met his fate
It the hand of the murdered mans friends,
: being circulated by some of RS relatives,
,ut it's a very unlikely story and meets with
title or no credence. Another report last
was that the missing man had
,een captured and in Jail at Farming
on, but a telegram to the sheriff of st.
Francois county brought back reply that
his story was wholly without foundation.
n the meantime the murderer is doubtless
making good his escape. We may be wrong ,
tut it seems to us that it should be some
mes duty to represent this matter to the
Governor and endeavor to have a reward
ffered for RS apprehension. \ small
mount at the present time, while the trail
; yet warm, would incite more inquiry and
pursuit than twice the sum few weeks
alter when the affair has been comparatively
orgotten and the interest subsidized. Robb's
heinous crime and the good name of our
ounty and state demands that he be brought
peedily to justice. No stone should be left
lnturned to the accomplishment Of that end.
