There has never before been
such a call for farms to rent. Men
have been here over three months
looking for a farm to rent, and
can't find one. It is safe to say
that fifty farms could be rented if
improved.
A little extra feed should be
given the horses now to put them
in the best Of condition for the
spring work, which will soon be-
gin. If horses are thin now give
them just about all the corn they
will eat three times a day, and
give them the best Of care. A
team that is poor when S g
work begins is next thing to worth
less all summer. One team in
good flesh is worth more than two
poor ones. Don't stint the horses
now, but give them all they will
eat, and let them run out and take
exercise every day from this on.

PINE TOP WHISKY.
Is There an Illicit still on Grand
Rivero

The report comes from over on Grand
River that an Illicit 'distillery is In
operation somewhere in the hills on
the east side, near the mouth OF Duck
Greek. just before Christmas whisky
began TO be sold in / hat neigh borhood.
the quality Of which had strong sug-
gestions Of "pine top" and more than
one citizen can testify to having pro
cured quantity of the vile stun at
the muzzle of six shooter. The
party furnishing the liquor goes by the
name of "Santa Klaus" and IS not a
stranger TO the citizens of that part
OF the country.
A few days ago an old man who
makes a living by hunting and ship.
ping ION the sly) small game, such
as quail, squirrels, wild turkeys, etc.,
was in hollow below the mouth of
Drowning Greek, on suspicion of be.
ing United States detective. lie was
marched some distance TO cave in
the overbanglng bluff and questioned
as TO his business in that part OF the
Wild and unsettled country. After
the parties who had him under arrest
were satisfied that he had no knowl-
edge Of them or their business they
released him with the admonition to
not intrude again in that immediate
vicinity, with the promised penalty Of
death If he violated orders.
Country dances are in great favor
in that neighborhood this winter, and
vcuder Of "pine top" is always on
hand and plies his trade with great
boldness and with little or no danger
Of being arrested or exposed. Only
one man at time is allowed TO ap-
proach the salesman and then at the
muzze of cooked revolvers.
There are two theories among the
neighbors Ms TO how aud where the
supply is obtained. The first and
most generally adhered to is that an
Illicit distillery is being operated in
the hills somewhere near the place
above mentioned. Strength is added
TO this theory by the avowals of certain
Inhabitants Of that region who claim
to know just how wild cat whisky
tastes, having doubtless tasted it be-
fore.
The other theory is that a boat
load of the meanest whisky ever made
in Missouri has been anchored for
some weeks in Grand River near this
point and IS being retailed to "known
and reliable purchasers"
The latter theory loses much Of it's
force when the quantity used at an
ordinary "shin dig is multiplied by
the number of such gatherings that
have been held during the winter, as
no small craft could contain such a

Orpaniza a COMPANY.

One Of our citizens who has had
much to do with the settlement of new
sections of country and subduing Of
lawlessness, calls attention to fact
which Is recognized but overlooked.
This is, the necessity for organization
Tor mutual protection of life and prop
erty. IL Is known definitely that
sithin twenty or thirty miles of us a
band of outlaws have their headquar-
ters, that they are organizing and re-
cruiting their ranks and within few
hours could muster perhaps twenty.
that the approaching payment is the
incentive that IS stimulating them to
extra exertion just at this time. The
information that over six million dol
lars are soon to be paid out within
our borders will bring among us all the
thieves and cutthroats in .hc south
west (Which are out OF jail aui make
il possible for the outlaws ncg here
to raise as large force as they wish.
To be prepared for Il raid at any mo-
ment is the course which prudence
suggests. Robberies have been fre-
quent all around us during the past
year or two and there are no especial
reasons for believing that we shall al
ways be spared. There are men and
arms enough in this town to success
fully resist az the outlaws ever likely
to attack us, il only we were organized,
could be assembled the Instant an
alarm was given and had our guns at
hand. Doubtless we have also In our
midst men competent both by reason
OF their courage aud experience to take
the lead aud who would inspire conf
dence in their subordinates. II has
been suggested that a company should
be formed and oliicered, a centrally To-
Gated and accessible arsenal be secured
and an electrical or other system of
alarm provided. concerted plan of
resistance in case OF attack at any one
of the various portions Of town could
be agreed upon by those in command
and ia short time we shoUld be in
position TO defeat any force which is
likely to come against us. In addition
to the security which would ensue
from the adoption Of the precautionary
measures outlined, potent reason
would be brought into exis tence for
making a considerable payment of the
strip money At this point, and one
which should have weight with council.
