A New Produce House for Harrison

The opening this week at the old
Reed stand of the firm of Nose
Smith & Co., produce and commits
sion merchants, gives to Harrison
added advantages as market for
the products of the country. 1t is
no little importance to our farmers
to find a ready sale for their surplus,
and at prices as high as the general
market permits Mr.. Smith has had
extensive experience as a produce
man throughout our section, and
having an ambition to build for the
future here, will make it point to
treat his customers with the broad.
est consideration in every way.

RepabIIcaus RepadIatel Roosevelt.

1t is a most remarkable thing
that the Democrat campaign book
just issued contains no criticism, or
censure whatever of Mr.. Roosevelt
or Mr.. Roosevelt's administration
This is one of the peeuliarities of
politics. A still more remarkable
fact is that this was purposely done
and at the instigation of Mr. Bryan
himself but when one looks at the
logic of the situation, it will readily
be seen that Mr.. Bryan could not
have done otherwise. All of the pol
icies that Mr.. Roosevelt has achiev,
ed popularity in promoting, were
taken bodily from Democratic plat
forms and Mr.. Bryan's speeches.
There is not single one of any inn
portance that is advocated by
Roosevelt but what was taken from
Bryans teachings.
However, the fact has been clearly
established that the Republican par
ty is running away from Roosevelt's
policies This is shown to some ex-
tent by the nomination of James S.
Sherman as the running mate of Mr..
Taft. Sherman is interested in doz-
ems of trusts and has been a collect
or OF campaign funds for the Repub-
lican party for many years, This
onl y goes to show that the Republi-
can party intends to stand by the
trusts, and that if they are success.
full the tariff will be readjusted in the
interests of the tsruts instead of in
the interest OF the people, The
treasurer of the Republican Nation
al Committee has succeeded in eyad
ing the law against corporation
contributions to campaign expenses.
He has discovered that while the
corporations cannot contribute to
the campaign fund, there is nothing
to prevent the secretary or any
member of the board of directors
OF these great concerns from contrib
uting. AS there is absolutely no en-
thusiasm in the Republican cam
paign whatever this year. the Re
publlcans are proceeding to squeeze
all the money they can out of cor
porations such as the beef trust, the
steel trust, the harvester trust, the
oil trust, and so on, so they are de
pending on the power of big cor
poration fund to carry the election
against Bryan. But the people are
not likely to be bought up this time
as many we're in the days of Mark
Hanna.

THE following from the Spring
field, Mo Leader is respectfully re-
ferred to Harrison and her Town
Council ut is surprising that in a
city of this size we should hear COM
plants about keeping hog pens.
There is absolutely no excuse for 1t
and persons who have no more re-
gard for the rights Of their neigh
bors than to keep foul smelling hogs
should be promptly arrested by the
police. All such things breed disease
and in the interest of the public
health they will have to be abated.
Springfield long ago passed the hog
raising stage and it is surprising
that anyone would presume to vio-
late such a necessary ordinance.

IN democratic countries like our
own, where the fate of the ma
tion is in the hands of the peo-
pie, the future of the nation is in the
hands OF the children. They must
be fitted for their high responsible.
ties by the influences of the home.
Such countries should fear the dis
loyalty and contention OF the fire.
side more than the nefarious plots
of scheming politicians. If boys
wrangIe and contend at home, if
they cannot discuss with dignity the
little questions that arise from daily
intercourse with one another, be
sure they will not honor the nation
when they take their places in the
senate, parliament or congress to
discuss the great problems that con-
front the civilization of the TWEEN
tieth century.

A Campaign FalsehOOd.

September, 10th, 1908
To the Citizenship of Boone Co:

who voted for me and those who

and have not a word of rebuke for
them or any of them. do not feel
sore at anyone except those who
stole me out in the primary. Late
in the campaign, on Saturday night
or Sunday before the election on
Monday, a circular was distributed
which ! had not time to answer,
and which was condemned by all
right thinking people. ! would not
refer TO this but for the fact that |
did not have time heretofore to an
swer it and did not want It to go
unchallenged. The affidavit of Bob
Mcdonald therein is malicious
lalsehood. O. X. EvATT.
