The Corrupt Practices Bill.

Senate bill No. 101, to prevent cor
rupt practices in elections, to limit
the expenses of candidates, to pre-
scribe the duties of candidates and
political committees and provide PEN
alties and remedies for violation of
the law, was read a third time and
passed by a vote of 95 to 7.
This act, which will now unques-
tionably become a law, must of ne
cessity produce as radical a change
in conducting campaigns as theAus-
tralian ballot did in the mode of yot-
ing. Before a successful candidate
can qualify he must file a sworn
itemized statement of all money ex-
pended by himself or any one for
him, and if the sum exceeds 800
for 5000 voters or less, the person
who receives the next highest num-
Der of votes for the office can bring
the matter by affidavit to the atten-
of the Attorney General, whose
duty it will then be, within 10 days,
to institute proceedings to have the
Office declared vacant. That the bill
only received seven negative votes
is regarded as remarkable.

Visitors TO Our Schools.

The Mexico Public Schools have a
well deserved reputation throughout
Missouri and adjoining states and are
often visited by teachers from other
schools who are DESTROYS of under
standing Dur management. Among
those who visited the public schools
of this city to-day were Professors
Hall and Rouse of MontgomeryCity;
Patterson, of Huntsville; Gass, of
Fulton; Gass, of jefferson City; A.
P. Settle, of Louisiana; Reed and
Tinsley, of Moberly; also two lady
teachers from the latter school. They
all expressed their approval of the
management of the Mexico schools
and were loud in their praises of our
teachers and methods employed.
This visiting of schools by teachers
think a praiseworthy movement
and should be encouraged by school
boards throughout the state

.UNCLE" AARON MePIKE.
He Plays a Profitable Trick on the
Option Dealers.

Aaron MePike, the largest tax
payer in Audrain county, was ten
dered . reception at his homo in
Vapdalia Friday night in honor Of
his 18th birthday, "Uncle" Aaron
can justly be ohristened 1.-THE
rather of Vandalia, He has done
many philanthropic acts in the in
terest of the town and always heads
the list when a subscription paper is
started. A gentleman from Van
dalia related a little story like this:
"Some years ago "Uncle" Aaron
had a close relative to lose about
$40, 900 dealing in wheat in the
st. Louis market. The relative
took his misfortune very hard and
complained bitterly. Mr.. McPike
told the unfortunate to wipe his eyes
and quite crying, that he would fix
matters or know the eason why.
"Uncle' Aaron jumped on the train
and went to Hannibal. He borrow
ed about $685. 900 there on his good
credit and then went to Louisiana
and borrowed $50, 900. He scraped
up another $1O0, 900 in Audrain
and adjacent counties and went to
st. Louis. After putting his $780,
900 in the bank he purchased a
very fine suit of clothes and a plug
hat, also a large gold headed cane.
Then he walked in the CHAMBER of
Commerce''and made some startling
bids on wheat. The way "Uncle"
Aaron conducted himself left the
impression among the option deal
ers that he was some multi-million-
aire from Wall street. Wheat went
up pretty quick. "Uncle" Aaron
sold out and came home about $780,
900 ahead. None of his kin have
cried since"

United States Government buys $65

Treasury notes for $65 and coins
that silver into 100 silver dollars.
When these $65 Treasury notes are
presented for payment would you
have the Treasury pay them with

keep the $35 difference?
That is the proposition. Is it
honest?

What are the first and most inn
portant factors to consider when
contemplating life insurance? An
swer: Safety, contract and results.
What company embraces these to
the greatest extent? Answer: The
Equitable Life of New York. Why?
Because it has the largest amount of
insurance in force and does a larger
annual business, with a less expense,
and its surplus is about double that
of any other life insurance company

GRASS.

Ground for grass should always
be put into the best possible condi-
ton. 1t should be leveled and fined.
Indeed this should be done for all
small seeds. Such a condition as
sists the termination and growth of
such seeds and the smaller the seed
the greater the need Of thorough
filth. If grass is sown in the fall
it is of the very highest Importance
to secure a thrifty growth for it be-
fore winter. Without that it can
not survive the action of frost. Prob
ably timothy is best sown in Sep
TENDER. Season and condition of
soil must be taken into considera-
ton in determining in what part of
that month it will be best to put it
into the ground. Clover may be
sown in the early spring or upon
the last snow of winter as frost pre-
pares it for sprouting. 1t seldom
answers a good purpose to SOW grass
seed when the ground is dry except
just before rain. Of course grass
seed viii sometimes lie in the ground
for a long period without parting
with all its vitality but in nearly all
cases of that kind its terminating
powers are diminished. Whether
timothy or clover is sown alone on
winter wheat use plenty of seed. A
good stand of grass cannot be OBJ
tanned unless seed is sown plentifully
and evenly. In accomplishing this
a broadcast sover win be a great
assistant. Timothy and clover sown
together make a good feed ration for
beth horses and cattle. Timothy
supports clover and keeps it from
falling and moulding and they can
be cut and cured together and make
fine hay for all purposes. They
should be harvested as soon as the
blossomao of the clover commence to
brown and bdfore the stalks of the
timothy mature.
