MAN WAS MADE TO HUSTLE.
KEYTEsvIlLE MISSOURI FRIDAY OCTOBER 1000.

lowing story:
A man had vicious dog
which attacked neighbor, who
killed his dogship by sticking a
pitchfork in him. The owner of
the canine was made very angry
and called on his neighbor to
learn why he had killed the dog.
He was informed that it was un-
avoidable as the dog was ad.
vancing in great ferocity and
that killing him was absolutely
necessary in order to protect
the object of the dogs fury.
"But why didn't you use the
handle or blunt end of the pitch.
fork?" inquir ed the man to
whom the dog belonged.
because he was not coming
at me with his blunt end" re.
sponded the neighbor.
After telling this etory Gov.
Dockery went into state and
national issues to the great dis.
COM ort of the Republicans
present. He compared the rec.
ords of the Democratic and Re.
publican parties in Missouri, ard
showed that while the Republi.
cans had fritted away the p9o l..
ple'smoney during the six years
they were in power prior to 1872,
the Democrats, who had been in
control since that time up until
two years ago, had given the
people the best governed state in
the union and had at the same
time reduced the rate of stat Q
taxes from 80 cts. on the 500
to II cts. on the S100. In Iowa
the state tax is now 35 cts; in
Illinois 81 cts, and in Kansas sc
cts, on the 500 which accounts
for SO many farmers of thos
Republican states flocking tc
Missouri, "They are all vel :
come," said the speaker; "but
they should be gotten into 6
Democratic club"
| On national issues the Re.
publican party was upbraidec
for its protective tariff polio y
which fattens trusts and COM
bines and causes Capitalization
of great wealth. Its Philippine
policy was also condemned ir
annexing a territory that was
1000 miles from our shores anC
had already cost the United
States 100000, 900 and the enc
was not yet. Gov Dockery saie
he approved the scheme some
one had suggested concerning
the Philippines and that wa
to trade them off for Ireland ant
raise our own policemen.
The speaker favored the an
nexation of Cuba and expressed
} the hope that the time woult
l come when she would be annex
ed. and thus another state AM
another star added to the fla.
of the American union.
Many other good things wer
! said in Gov. Dockery's speech
, but we have not the space at ou
disposal to 60 into full details.
d After an earnest plea to tn
, Democrats to do their duty a
, the election, Gov. Dockery clos
t ed and drove from Keytetesvill

Saturday night.

Ex-Gov. A. NJ. Dockery's Speech.

AS per previous announce
nent ex.Gov A. M. Duckery of
5allatin, Mo-, spoke at the
in Keytesville Satur-
day afternoon.
The speaker was introduced in
q neat little speech by Hon. M.
W. Anderson, chairman of the
county Democratic central com.
mittee. Mr.. Anderson paid well.
compliments to the
quality of Mr.. Dockery's Dem.
ocracy and to his official career,
both as a congressman and as
governor.
In beginning his remarks Gov.
Dockery said he was always
glad to see the people of Charlton
and Randolph counties as he
owed them a debt of gratitude he
could ever pay; that whatever
good he had accomplished in
public life was due to them while
he alone assumed the discredit
for what he had done amiss.
He then urged upon the Dem
ocracy the Importance of the is
sues of the present political cam
paign and said that the COM
ing election was the most i'm.
portant one in this state since
1872. Internal dissension had
caused the defeat of the Demo-
cratic party in Missouri two
years ago, largely due to q tele-
gram that was sent to amend the
national Democratic platform.
He expressed the belief that ii
the Democrats did not carry the
election in Missouri in 1906 they
would not carry it in 1908. He
was Of the opinion that William
Jennings B-yan should be the
next president, and that made il
all the more important for Mis-
souri, Democrats to go o,ito the
polls and vote the 9th ofs..next
month, for Bryan could neversbe
elected president without sathe
electoral vote of Missouri. ssThe
ensbing election was sthe skir-
mish line of the preliminary con
test of 1908, and if the Demo
Gratis could only get out to sth'
polls this fall Bryan's election a;
president two years hence was
almost assured.
He declared that thespendulun
had swung way out TOWARD
Roosevelt in 1904, and that i
was now swinging back. Greele,
was defeated for president ii
1872 by a large majority, bu
Roosevelt's majority over hi
opponent for the presidency wa
a little more so. Gov. Decker,
said he believed history wa
about to repeat itself as tn
signs of the times indicate
Democratic victory.
The Republi can majority il
| Oregon had been reduced iron
43, 900 in 1904 to 5000 in 1000
while Vermont's Republical
majority had been cut dow
one-half. The Republican ma
jority in Maine dropped fror
2e, 900 to 5000, notwithstandin
that Taft, Cannon and other bi
Republicans guns were ser
there in the interest of the Re
publican ticket.
Gov. Dockery predicted th'
this was going to be Demo
, cratic year, and for which /
, thanked God. Alabama hs
, made a large increase in h
2 Democratic majority, and
+ wanted Missouri to do ikewi
f for this was essential to Demt
r cratic success in 1908.
Cordial applause was evok'
when he observed that he wou

WOMAN IN ACTION
WITH A BIG GUN
Takes Law Into Her Own Hands
and Protects Her
Property.
SHE AND HUSBAND
ARE UNDER ARREST
Quarrel Between NeighbOrs to
Be Aired in the Police
Court.

Henry Morgan and his wife, who live
at Z keysor's s court, were arrested by
Detective Rhoads Monday and will be
asked TO explain in the police court why
they threatened the lives of their neigh
bors, Maroni Keysor, n dentist, and his
brother Flaw, William McCullcn The
ncighbors will themselves have q few
things to explain at the same time,
The arrest OF the Morgans grew out
of quarrel between the parties over
strip OF ground, two feet wide and
about twenty feet long, which divides
the residence properties of the Morgans
and the Keysors.
Would Close Passageway.
Before her marriage, the present Mrs.
Morgan bought the house she and her
husband now live In. With it went n
strip of ground three feet wide and
running lengthwise with the house. This
premises by a board fence and afforded
passageway for the Morgans from
the street to the rear of their house
Some time ago Keysor set up claim
to two feet of this strip, The claim
was resisted by Morgan, who insisted
that as his wife had purchased the
ground and paid for it, it belonged TO
her. For some months neighborhoo1
quarrel has been on over this trihing
bone Of contention.
Keysor as a Digger.
On Sunday, Keysor started in to dig
away the earth from the posts of MGR"
gan's fence. The latter protested and
tried to get out legal process to stop
what he considered an infringement OF
his rights. On Sunday this was impos
sible and Monday morning the situation
was not improved, on account of the
legal holiday, and Kcysor was still
digging away Resolved to try the last
resort, Morgan on Monday applied to
the police to restrain his neighbor from
tearing away his fence. While he was
away on this mission, Mrs. Morgan
took the law, and at the same time
big six-shooter, in her own hands, and
marched on the enemy, who were busy
throwing up their earthworks In her
back yard.
Meant What She Said
That she meant business Keysor had
no reason to doubt She pointed the
gun straight at them and, with unmis-
taxable earnestness, informed them
that if they went an inch further she
would, then and there, blow their indi.
vidual and collective brains out. Nor
gan returned just in time to see his
determined spouse driving the enemy
from the field They did not linger on
the premises, but proceeded direct to
the police station and made the com
plant which resulted in the arrest
The Morgans were released on their
own recognizance and will appear in
the Police court today.

TRAILING HIGHBINDER
Authorities Appear to Have Struck a
Plain Trail.

ernment authorities, who were placed
upon the trail of the perpetrator of the
highbinder tactics pursued against the
first cook and assistant of the Scranton
Mining company, have struck the plain
est kind of a trail, and some interest
ing developments are anticipated with
IN short time. These tactics took the
form of letters TO the Scranton s Chi
nese cook, threatening that Celestial
with the loss of his head in case he did
not turn his assistant loose. Whoever
the Union company was, the letters
signed by that name have ceased to
arrive and bother the Scranton IS cook,

rope of the law. II is understood that
the Scranton company has offered a
reward OF 500 for the arrest and con-
viction of the guilty party.

Big PROGRAMME OF
SPORTS At SALT PALACE
There Were Races, Boxing Con-
test, Ball Games and
Tug-Of-War.

The biggest programme Labor day
was at the Salt Palace, where races or
all kinds, n boxing contest of four
rounds, a baseball game. and tug-ot-
war were the features, while the bicycle
races created the usual enthusiasm.
In the lo0.yard dash, for union men

ond honors and a prize of 50

John Elden close second, carrying
of the prize of 81,
The race for boys under l2 was won

derson; prizes, So and ST.
The tug-of-war was one Of the most
interesting features Of the entire day
and created much excitement The first
prize was won by the Structural Iron
Workers, while the pull between the
Electrical Workers and the Boiler
makers was a most interesting light,
lasting twenty-four minutes before 1T
was decided that the Boiermakers were
entitled to the second prize, The prizes
an this were $15 to the winner.
Much amusement was created by the
foot race for fat men, the weight limit
being 200 pounds or over. In this the
first prize Of 50 was won by Charles
Mentzmaker, while the second, Of 81,
was carried of by II. A, Ryan.
Following this, and all the more
amusing because of the fact, was the
lean men s race, the conditions being

very rapid affair, and the winner was
given a prize of 50, while the second

and Miss Holmer the second of ST.
Next was the race for girls under 10

second prize of 81 Owing to the fact
that there were SO many entries for
II, Gates as winner, and Ada Davis talk
ing second place, prizes the same as in
the preceding race
a very fine exhibition of boxing was
given IN the arena by Kid Jolly of
Detroit Mich, and a boxer from Chi
cago. The 60 was for four rounds and
the winner took a purse of good pro-
portions. This took the place of the
wrestling match which was to have
been pulled off, but was cut out owing
to the inability of one of the contest
ants to appear.
The prize waltz was won by William
Allen and Stella Patterson; prize, 50
each, while Jesse Collins and Bertha

FRITZ RIEPEN DYING
Well-Known Salt Laker Is Near the
End

Well-hHoWn salt Iaker Is Near the
End.
The many friends of Fritz Riepen In
Salt Lake and elsewhere will be sorry
to learn that he suffered a stroke OF
paralysis Friday afternoon of last week.
from which the doctors give little hopes
for his recovery. Dr. A X. Smith, his
regular physician, has not lost all hope,
but admits that the case is most serious
The paralysis was superinduced by hem
orrhage OF the brain. and since first
stricken the patient has lain in a coma

distinction OF being elected a member of
the City Council where he sat for four
