fRepoKtesi for the neacon.l
Decidedly the liveliest and most en-
joyable thing ont, was the strawride,
participated In by the young people Of
Mofganza section last Friday night.
All things combined to make is pleas
ant. The night was clear and cool. The
strong willing horses drew their load
right cheerfully and made the bells
Jingle in way that turned our thocghts
70 pleasant winter scenes, when sleigh
runners slipped swiftly thru the snow.
Refreshments were In abundance and
the wit of the party who hardly let the
laughter die down, before he forced ms
70 rend the air with another laugh, de-
serves our thanks for being 30 entertain
ing. Sentimental and comic songs were
sung. Before the end we all agreed
there was nothing like it."
The happy participants In this ride were
Mira. Nellie Knots, who chaperoncd the
party, Misses Laura Bailey, Akhie Her.
bert Mary Latham and Marie Combs.
Messrs. De Sales Payne, Henry Bailey,
William Turner, Wilmer Knott and our
good natured driver Richard Thomas.

OUR MAIL SERVICE.

Something developed the latter
part OF last week that promises much
in our favor regarding the mails. 1t
is probable that IN the near future
the routes will be changed. If this
is not done, changes in other direc-
tions will he made so that mail will
be handled more promptly. People
who have been here for several
years, declare the present service to
be the worst they have ever had. We
as eastern aud northern people have
been used to better mail service than
has been given here. OF course we
don't expect railroads to give us mail
every few hours, but we would ap-
preciate a prompt daily service This
we could have if the carriers were
receiving an adequate sum for their
work. We are also told that years
ago much more money was paid for
this work, than at present. 1t is hard
to understand why this is unless the
contractors underbid the amount it
is worth. If such is the case it is
wrong committed upon the people.
The Government is willing to pay for
the WORK it has done, hence it is not
necessary for any person to make
contracts upon losing basis while in
the employ of Uncle Sam. More
mail is being delivered in this coun-
try every year, hence contractors
should receive more fer handling it..
The people are demanding an i'm
provement in the situation.

Opportunity to Make Money.

If there yet remains one single per-
SON upon Gods green earth that
would not be offended at making a
cheese-hoop full of money in con.-
paratively short time, they should
present their credentials in person,
at Forsyth, Mo. This is the place for
you and We need some one that is
not afraid of accumulaiing some long
green. The people here ought to
(and We think woul,D donate You a
chunk of earth upon which to oper-
ate. More people are now coming
to Taney county than ever before and
the influx has only begun. Mineral
and cheap homes will bring a stream
of emigration for years 10 como. But
we can't take care or all these people
with present hotel facilities. We
want, need and must have a hotel, or
the town, county and people who are
must suffer the con eQuences
of existing circumstances.

MASONIC rites are to be observed

MASONIC rites are to be observed
on the top of Pixies Peak during the
early part of August. Degrees will
be conferred mid snow and ice
whilst the rest of the populace are
scorching under brassy skies. Special
trains will bear Masons and their
friends to Colorado on the sixth of
August, but only members of the
craft may witness the ceremonies of
Cryptic Masonry. Whilst the
brethren are shivering on the Peak
their friends will probably enjoy a

WITH the emigration that is now
coming to Taney county, and the in
crease that will take place as soon as
harvest is over in the north, we must
have better conditions for getting the
people down flom the railroad. Re-
Gently several parties have had to re-
main over at Chadwick "a hours on
account of this very difficulty. A
day in Chadwick means that the
emigrant may never go farther south.
Enough hacks and teams should be
put on the road to handle the trade
from the end of the road to Forsyth.

RAILROAD earnings for June were
unusually large, but the earnings for
the present month promise to be
mucn larger. The earnings of seventy
roads for the first week in July show
an increase of 81, ,O75, ,O9O, or Is Sc per
cent, over the earnings for the cor
responding week last year, and last
years business was exceedingly large.
The volume of business continues to
grow, and the work of railroad build
ing is being pushed with a vigor not
equaled since 1890 No time could
be more opportune to agitate the
building of a road through Taney
