The opportunities of the public at
large to vote for the man of their choice
for United States Senator are con-
spicuous for their absence.
THE Sun offers an opportunity for
everybody to express their opinion as to
who is the best man to represent the in
terests of the Diamond State in the
councils of the nation.
This is an opportunity that has never
before been accorded to the people of
any state within the history of the ma
tion.
The plan is simple.
Fill out the coupon at tine head of this
column and send it to The Sun. We pub
lish the number of votes received by
each candidate every day in order to
keep the voters posted.
THE Sun also makes this offer. The
winner in this contest has the privilege
of naming any charity in the state to be
the recipient of one hundred dollars,
which will be paid to the said charity by
The Sun.
The contest will continue until the
first ballot is taken in the Legislature.
There is no law or requirement which
makes it necessary for you to sign your
name to your ballot, though we would
rather you would. They will be counted
just the same, however, if you do not
wish your opinions known.
Send in your ballot and help win that
$lO0 for some deserving charity.
All votes credited to each contestant
do not necessarily represent all the votes
received for each contestant. They
merely represent those that are counted
up to II midnight Of the day preceding.

A Sign Board or a Lie?

The revenue from advertisements is as
much determined by the way they are
written and put in type and the fire.
quency with which they are changed, as
by the energy with which they are
solicited and the amount charged for
them. The writing of an advertisement
is an art. The popular idea is that it
should be sign board or lie. But like
the editorials and the news it should be
simply truth plainly told. 1t should
contain the announcement of some fact
which is of Importance alike to the adj
vertiser and the public. When the ad-
vertisement states that "John Jones has
bought the largest and finest stock ever
brought to town." the public knows that
it is not true, and turns from it in dis
gust. But if after announcing that Jones
is opening a new stock, the prices are
printed at which certain articles are
sold it will be read with eagerness. An
advertisement is valuable only in pro-
portion as it conveys information. 1t is
less than worthless when it conveys
nothing. ng.-Missouri Editor.

TROUBLE ON WEST SECONDST
The Residents at War With
Fists, Tongues and the Law.
The Battle is Raging.
SMALL boy STARTED RACKET
Several Licks Have Been Struck
and More are to Follow, While
the Magistrates are Being Sup.
piled With Plenty of Busi-
ness-..And More to Follow.

Fights and law suits reign supreme on
West Second street between Monroe and
Madison. Yesterday there were two or
three fights and several quarrels which
ended in law suits. This generally peace
full neighborhood is in a state of turmoil,
the like Of which is seldom seen, even
down on the "coast."
nearly caused bloodshed and has created
an unpleasant and mean feeling to exist
beween former friends, neighbors and
relatives.
The people seemed possessed and will
fight or resort to law on the least provo
cation, and yesterdays proceedings break
all former records OF discord in one
square on the same day.
Some of the residents of that section
are wrought up over the affair SO much
that they threaten to leave the possessed
neighborhood.
The trouble began over small son OF
w. J. Gamble and another boy which
was stopped by man named Mccarthy.
The Gamble boy went to his father
and told him that Mr.. Mccarthy choked
him. Mr.. Gamble and Mr.. Mccarthy
had some words on the matter. Gamble
accused Mccarthy of choking his boy
and finally knocked him down.
Mr.. Mccarthy had Gamble arrested
and the case was tried before Judge Ball
who imposed fine of $40 and costs on
Mr.. Gamble.
Mrs. Mary C. White made the remark
that it was shame for man Mr..
CANDLES size to strike small man like
Mr.. Mccarthy.
A man named McCollum of No 723
West Second street, cursed Mrs. White
and told her to 60 in the house.
Mrs White sued him and the squire
that tried the case fined him S. and
held him under 5000 bail.
Letter carrier Harlan j. Feaster, No.
| 72S West Second street, became involved
in a racket with woman on the same
street, and the trial comes up this morn
ing before squire.
Mrs. Mckay of the same section, who
has been keeping house for her brother
in-law, has resigned her position and
will sue for her wages before magis-
trate today.
The residents say that there is still
more to follow and that the people are
