An exchange gives the following
sound advice to business men: If you
expect to conquer in the battle of to-
day you will have to blow your trum-
pet in firm and steady way. If you
toot your little whistle and lay aside
your horn, there's not soul will know
that you were ever born. The maR
who owns his acres is the man who
blows all day, and the man that keeps
a-humm1ng is the man that is here to
stay. But the man who adyertises
with a sort of sudden jerk, is the man
who blames the printer because it
doesn't work. The man that gets the
business uses brainy printers ink; not
a cIatter, nor a splatter, but an 'ad.'
that makes you think And he plans
his advertisements as he plans well
built stock, and the future Of his bust
ness IS as sohd as a rock

RENEWALS.

Some one was claiming that Samp-
son deserved all the honor and prize
money for the victory at Santiago in
the presence of ex-Gov. Proctor Knott
of Kentucky. When he finished Gov.
Knott said: "Well, my friend. when
was boy 1 went rabbIt-hunting
with one of my schoolmates. We ran
a rabbit into a hollow log and 7
went off to get some fire to smoke
him out and told the other boy if the
rabbit should get out to be sure to
catch him. When | returned with
the fire he had the rabbit all right.
I claimed him on the ground that the
boy complied with my instructions,
and therefore it was my property.
But l have never found a single man
since who agreed with me except
yourself"

TOWNSHIP ORGANIZATION AGAIN.
The Fallacios Of the Charlton County Re-
publican Expossd-When the Re-
publican Opens It's Mouth It
Puts Both It's Feet

In 1t.
Two weeks ago the Charlton Coun-
ty Rebu6Iran, in berating the honora-
Bile county court for not apportioning
more taxes for township purposes,
made the ridiculous statement that it
was in the power Of The court to set
apart 20 cents on the $Ioo for the use
of the townships, but the RebH6HcGA
was compelled to back down from this
absurd claim when the COURIER
showed that under the session acts
of 1897 the county court could only
allow the townships eight cents on the
SIoo.
After thus being placed in the nine
hole the RebubHcan of last week
"quotes law" to show that this county
is under township organization. We
admit this to be the case, and suppose
the Republican only mentioned the
matter as an item of news to its read
ers, who had not heard that the Son
of AIan had died for the salvation of
sorIss that f'aristafhe- Colun1bus dis
covered Ar4enca; that George Wash
ington was the father of his country,
or that some craven coward once
struck Billy Patterson.
The Republican also foohshly and
falsely asserts that the COURIER, IN its
expose of the fallacies held by the
Republican, tailed to 60 back to the
constitution and laws passed and in
force prior to 1897. On the contrary,
the COURIER showed that the Constitu-
tional limit of taxation in Charlton
county, as decided by tie supreme
court of Missouri in April. 1894, is 40
cents on the $Ioo for county and town /
ship purposes, while the session acts OF !
1907 provides that only 20 per cent OF |
this amount of 40 cents on the $500 can /
be used for township purposes. This /
makes 0nLy eight cents an tie 5SIOO that
can bS hr5'ifd ./05- h07onShib fHrboS6s /
And yet the honorable county court III !
its intense opposition to township, ,organi- /
zation levied 10 cents on the $loo for
township purposes in I897-two
cents more than was allowed by law.
Section 8,527, revised, 1850, stat
utes of Missouri, quoted by the R>- !
bHbIIraH to show that n0f less thar 10
aOr mere tier 70 c>lhs an lie >5l0o
can be levied, appnes only to roa6
matters; but the wiley editor oil
the RlbubLihaa attempts to lead the
public INTO the belief that the section
he quotes refers TO the levy for
township purposes. The section re
ferred to reads as follows: (1he Re

SATURDAYS TROPHY SHOOT
-Four Teams Are Mech and Mech Tor The
Goal.


Saturdays rifle contest at Ka-
kaako fhr the Foreign Oaice tro-
ply will break the record, In
many respects, for events Of it's
kind in this country. IL all the
teams snter, and il seems likely
that such will be the case, a total
of 100 men will shoot.
OF all the teams in the field
Company G's is working hardest
for the prize. Every day for two
weeks or more Captain Kea has
had almost his entire list of men
at the butts. The company's
monthly allowance of ammuni-
ton was exhausted some days
since, and the team is now paying
for extra practise shells, The
team expects to make no, or an
average of 49, per man.
Company ID is Saving wood"
All eyes are on this team, but
there are no estimates inside or
out of it. Captain Sam. johnson
will say nothing. Asked il his
men will beat no, he smiles sig
pi6canily and replies: "Tll tell
YOU Saturday night" johnson is
working very hard, with many
thinks in his favor for the prize.
Company Els team is the only
one out for wagers. Bets for
everything from marbles to cigars
are up. A great point in favor Of
the team is tat the second half Is
about as good as the first. This
applies also TO Company +.
Both of these teams figure on no.

team says, well go them a

others. Each of these teams con-
tain some good shots, how yer,
