Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1902-04-10

Missouri has been under Re
publican officers and under
Democrat officers, thus both
parties have official records.
Be sure to study carefully these
records before you vote and
then stand for that party which
gives the best government and
causes all classes to pay their
Just dues as state taxes.

Our Republican friends have
decided to make the campaign
in Missouri this year on State
issues Now let them stick to
the truth and facts and the Re.
publican party in Missouri will
not have enough votes to get
on the ballot in 1904 and can
only get on such ballot by peti.
ton. On State issues Demo
cracy is in her long suit and
when it comes accompanying rec
ords, in Missouri or elsewhere,
between Democratic rule and
Republican rule the records
invariably show that Democ.
racy stands for the interests
of the people for honest. eco.
nomical. good government.
Democracy is ready to meet the
Republican foe on State issues
or any other issues which our
Republican friends may elect.

New Bills For Old Ones.

Not every one is aware of just what
the United States subtreasury will do
for a person with soiled currency. If
any one has such bills, in no matter
how small quantity, and wishes to get
brand new bills, all he has to do is to
go down to the subtreasury and hand
the old currency over the counter. The
government will hand him in return
neN bills of any desired denomination.
Perhaps under a strict Interpretation
of the law the government clerk might
refuse certain bills on the plea that
they were still fit for circulation, but
in practice the government is inclined
to be very obliging, and, unless the sup
ply of clean money on hand should
happen to be temporarily short, the
clerk will without hesitation hand over
perfectly new and unfolded bills in re.
turn for money which has been folded
possibly only very few times.
AS a matter of fact a vast amount
of money is turned in which could not
have circulated among more than half
a dozen hands. But it is all redeemed
and the new currency issued in ex-
change. The subtreasury supplies the
new cash, too, without any expense,
no matter if millions are to be ex
changed.-New York Times.

THE INNS OF CHINA.
Their Cheapness Is About Their One
Redeeming Feature.


Their Cheapness Is About Their One
Redeeming Feature.
Chinese inns are without register or
clerks. On riding through the gateway
your bride rein is seized by a dirty
boy, who helps you to dismount, shout
Ing loudly meanwhile for the proprie-
tor, who presently looms up through
the wilderness of carts and mules. Pro-
prietor ana boy then hold a parley as
to what rooms are eligible, and then a
door is pushed open and the traveller is
shown to his apartment. 1t is usually
about twelve feet square. The walls
and floor are of hard mud, and so are
the beds, which extend entirely across
the side of the room, with only space
enough between them for small table
and one chair. The room is lighted by
one window, in which paper takes the
place of glass.
The first duty Of the proprietor in
making patron comfortable is to stop
up the holes in the paper window pane.
He never tears the paper off entirely
and replaces it with a new one, be-
cause the sheet of paper is worth
about One-tenth of cent, and the inn
keeper is not wasteful. Indeed he
pastes little slips of paper over the
holes until all the light that filters
through it is of a notified hue.
At one end of the mule shed is the
kitchen of the inn. 1t is here that the
meals for all the patrons are prepared,
fO ha ofnn in tho Tho iS
not elaborate. 1t consists only of bowls
of rice and tea. Should the traveller de-
sire greater variety of food, he can
buy it himself in the market, and his
own servant can cook it in the kitchen
of the inn. To sleep on the bed of a
Chinese inn would be for a foreigner
an impossibility were it not that he is
always so exhausted at the end of
each days journey that he finds it diff
ficult to remain awake ten minutes
after alighting from his pony. He lies
down on the mat that covers the hard
heap of mud and surprises himself at
the soundness of his slumber.
The one redeemiGs thing about the
inn is it's cneapness. Just as the trav-
eler is about to depart in the morning
the proprietor tells him the amount Of
his bill. Everything is charged on the
European PLAN" Every cup Of tea.
every rushlight candle. the paper win

list which the proprietor reels off in
singsong, but the total is surprisingly
low. The cost of food and lodging for

ponies and cart mules. is a;Nut 80

When the Worm Turned.

In little town there dwells a man
Of exceedingly shiftless disposition,
and recently he got his "come-up-ance."
His wife had borne with his shiftless-
ness for some years. Sometimes she
scolded him sharply, but it had no eff
feet. So long as he could shuttle down
to the village store and gossip with
other ne'er do wells in the town he did
not care for sharp tongue.
He never worked, and the wife sup
ported her husband and did the house
work, cooking good meals for his lazi-
ness to greedily devour. One day he
had chance to work and did not take
it. His wife heard about it and gave
him a piece Of her mind, but he receiv-
ed it as stolidly as ever. He went down
to the store that morning, as usual, as
placid and as self satisfied as ever.
= When he returned at noon, strange
sight greeted his eyes. The, house was
empty, bare as Mother Hubbard's cup
board. He went into the bedrooms.
Bedsteads, bureaus, all the furniture,
the curtains, everything had been re-
moved. It was the same baroness down
stairs. He crept into the kitchen, hop
ing that there at least he might find
something comfortable. Here, too, emp
tiness greeted him, but directly in the
center of the floor was a little white
mug, and on it in gilt letters were the
words, think of me-"

Didn't Fear His Dead Patients.

There is a doctor of the old school in
Randolph, Mass, whose house is sur
rounded by cemetery. The cemetery
is behind the house and comes up flush
with the road on either side, running
off to east and west for an eighth of a
mile. Some people might find such a
house lot doleful, and surely the neigh
bors are not lively. But that thought
never troubled the villagers so much as
the prospect of going home at night.
In the country towns of New England
the graveyard at night is still thing
Of terror, an inherited terror. There
are still towns where all the graves are
dug on a line running due east and
west, with the footstones toward the
east so that the dead may rise face to
face with the Judge on the last day. So
the doctor is often asked the question.
"Are you not afraid to go home some
times at night?"
And his answer is always the same:
"No. My neighbors will never trouble
me. They all owe me money."-New
York Tribune.

Many years ago an old fisherman set
tied on a small island in the Missouri
river opposite the Armour plant in

changed it's course, making the island,

mainland. Since that time the question
Of the ownership Of the land, now
