Speaker Cannon suffers severely from
the attentions Of those misguided peo-

is probably no country where stock can
be raised so cheaply, with as little dan

acres are covered with a strong luxu-

seems to have all the requirements of
fattening qualities and we doubt if there
is another place in the United States
where stock can be raised and fattened
so cheaply as in u hill country. Not
only the feed is there, but the country is
full of clear springs and running streams
which, with the timber for fuel, build
ings, posts, shade, and shelter in winter,
certainly makes an ideal country for
stock. Not only is it good for cattle,
horses and sheep, but thousands of hogs
are fattened there on the mast and
driven direct to market. While the blue

grass, timothy and clover all do well

Mr.. c. w. Mages of Wisconsin is back
and getting ready to III work at
1.-THE Wolf Den Mines" He has formed
a strong company in Wisconsin aud as
the property they have control of is con.
sidcred first class lead land there is not
much question but what we shall soon
hear good reports from hat country. We
understand another company expect to
commence work soon on another tract OF
land within one mile of the Wolf Den
property so hat business along mining
lines ought to be rather strenous out in
that district. Another company, probably
county for years, is the Pennsylvania
company. Several thousand dollars are
already raised and under their contract
have to commence work within a few
weeks. This company will also be at
work in what is considered the same mill
eral district as properties above mention
ed which only adds to the interest of that
especial locality. Not only i'll mining
lines have we much to hope for, but in
nearly every other line. The real estate
men inform us that the outlook for bust
ness along their line has never been SO
good as now and many new comers may
be expected within the next few weeks, i'll
fact they are coming now. For several
days men have been here look ing over
J Afnr1n, ory,t,, frn,,, 111;.-,, N':e,,,:,
Iowa and other states. These men say
they find land cheaper here in Morgan
county then anywhere else they have
been and say when people in their dis,
tricts once learn the prices at which land
can be had, we may look for an immense
immigration. Land today is higher in
Oklahoma, Kansaa, Texas, Nebraska &t
then t is right here in Central Missouri
with first class markets for everything
r OH all sides. Versailles, with this cheal
land all round. with coal and mineral al
: round and the best Of clays Of all kinds
, has much to hope for in this new inning
ration and business move that is coniinj
this way. 1t would be very hard to find
place that offers better and more genera
: inducements for all kinds of maufactur
: ing enterprises than Versailles. We hav
> the coal, the rail road facilities, the loca
: ton for draieage, health, timber and al
most every natural resource. Out slider
are beginning to realize this and from tn

way, we have much to expect the comm

Commissioners Asked Hot 70 Pay the
Fees Now Due.

3. Maklns Of this city has brought
injunction proceedings against the
county commissioners TO restrain
them from paying to W. W. Moir 8
Co. any fee for taxes collected. The
company has been working on the
county's books for 10 months finding
property not turned in for tsxstion.
They have notified parties and already
$4,000 has been paid. Some q those
caught are very prominent citizens.
The COMPANY was to receive 20 per
cent Of all taxes collected. The In
junction is brought on the ground
that the commissioners cannot hire
90 individual nos . county officer to
collect taxes and pay him out Of the
county funds. G. W. Hurd is attorney
for MIR. Makins who is acting for vari-
Gus interested parties rather than for
himself.
Mr.. Moir said today: 1--WE are act
Ing fully within our rights and have
been In this business eight years. We
have worked in half dozen states
and In many Kansas counties. We
have q full understanding OF the bust
ness and expect. to win. We have
only begun to collect taxes-muCh
more 10 to come"
In Illinois recently the appellate
court rendered q decision declaring
illegal the employment by county
boards Of supervisors Of "tax fsrrets"
whose duty 1t 10 to hunt up the
records and ascertain the names OF
persons who have escaped assessment
in former years, in order that the
board OF review might assess them.
The court holds that "the board OF
supervisors has no power in the ab-
Ssnce Of a specifcent to enter into a
contract with persons to unearth
property omitted from taxation In
former years, since that duty rests
with the board Of review, which, In
case Of refusal or failure to act, may
be compelled by action Of law" This
may not, however, apply to the Kan
sRs method.
Judge Rankin granted temporary
injunction and the matter will be de-
Cided by Judge Moore at the May
term Of court.
