Monroe county lost the banner
at last weeks election, Boone coun-
ty once more capturing the trophy.
Monroe's majority for Cowherd was
2S42 and Boones 2916, the margin
between the Bryan majorities be-
ing proportionately the same. AS
compared with 1900 the Republi-
cans gained only IA votes in Mon
roe county. but the Democrats lost
800, something like that number
failed to Milan Standard.

Defeat Stone.

There appears to be well form
ed plan in Northeast Missouri for
the Legislature to defeat Senator
William Joel Stone for reelection
to the Senate.
AS the upper house is
Democratic, t here are Blu t
two ways to accomplish such nefari-
Gus end and violate the wishes of
the people expressed at the polls.
First, large number of Demo-
Gratis can play sick and fail in their
duty to the people. Second, a large
number of Democrats can by being
absentees betray the people.
We do not look for such perfdity,
nor such brazen rascality, but
should such a thing occur, the
parties connected with it should be
branded as TRAITORS and expell-
ed from the party councils for all
time to come.

A Pertinent Question.

On a change Of venue a colored
woman was on trial in Lowry City,
says the Independent. She was
charged with inhuman treatment
of her children. Evidence was clear
that the woman had severely beat
en- one younGster, aged 9 years, who
was in court to exhibit his batter
ed condition. Before imposing sem
tence the justice asked the woman
whether she had anything to say,
Kin l ask Yo' Honoh a question:"
inquired the prisoner. Certainly
you can" the court responded.
Well" then, 70 HOnoh, I'd like to
ask yo' whether yo' was ever the
parent of a puffectly wuthless cul-
Iud child?"
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1908-11-26

The Urich Herald gently remarks:
That political party which fails to
recognize the principles advocated
by such men as Governor Folk
when opportunity is given for APP
proval is only driving nails in its
own coffin" Possibly the principles
were recognized and Senator Stone
kept to the front for the purpose of
serving as a frightful example.

Electricity Helped the Mule.
New York Tribune.

New York Tribune.
That most famous product of Mis-
souri,, the mule, not satisfied with
past achievements, has broken into
science. There is a possibility that
not only quadrupeds, but mankind
as well, stockmen in particular. will
have cause to bless the creation of
the mule. There have been many
deaths from lockjaw in a brewing
company stables in Kansas City re-
Gently. Thursday a valuable mule
became afflicted. Friday it was
about decided to kill the animal,
when the engineer suggested an
electric treatment. Contact parties
were attached to the mules jaw
and tail and 100 volts direct cur
rent were turned on. The treat
ment was repeated the next day
and the mule recovered.

The Simplest Method.

Everybody's.
While building a house, Senator
Platt of Connecticut had occasion
to employ a carpenter. One of the
applicants was a plain Connecticut
Yankee, without any frills.
You thoroughly understand car
pentry?" asked the Senator.
Yes, sir"
You can make doors, windows
blinds?"
oh, yes, sir"
How would you make a Vene-
tan blind?"
The man scratched his head and
thought deeply for a few seconds
Il should think, sir" he said finally
about the best way would be tc
punch him in the eye"
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1908-11-26

Dead! What would become of
this old land if the Democrats were
not here to use their restraining in
fiuence on the party in power. We
have quoted this several times. but
well do it again. M. W. keenan,,
while resident of this city several
years ago upon learning of a Demo-
cratic defeat, said: We'll give 'em
hell next time" Don't you believe
the party is dead. Wen hang the
man that says old guard or new
guard, shoot the political dead beats
and 60 after 'em red-handed. No,
sir, you cannot kill principles. -

At Concert.

Miss Bertha Jaeger went to the
aristocratic village of Bowling
Green Friday to sing at a concert
that night. Mrs. Robert M. Spalding
the pianist, accompanied her.
The Bowling Greenites ought to
consider themselves fortunate in
having the two ladies with them
for an evening.

Cut Foot.

Rolla Pierson knows how to chop
wood, but like other good wood
choppers, is not always careful.
While at the wood pile making
chips fly, his ak collided with an
obstacle before reaching the long

half of his right foot off. 1t will be
sometime before that foot is half
way good as new.

The Van Rensselaer, Academy

Huge Batch of Turkeys.

W. X. Bragg the turkey king of
Cherry Dell. Mo-, was a visitor in
the city today. Mr.. Bragg, who is
the senior member of the firm of
W. X. Bragg & Sons, general mer-
chants at Cherry Dell, brings more
turkeys to Quincy than any other
man and his annual deliveries are
of immense proportions The vicin-
ity of Cherry Dell is great turkey
country and Mr.. Bragg is the sole
distributor for the territory. Just
before Thanksgiving he buys up all
the turkeys ready for market in
that section and hauls them to
Quincy, where he always finds
ready sales for his birds. He is an
uncle Of S. |. Bragg, Of this city

That may sound fishy, but it
isn't. Here are some facts pertain
ing to this section of the country
that may well stagger one credulity
if they are not acquainted with the
poultry business.
w. A. Morthland, we are inform
ed, of Warren, has more than once
delivered 500 turkeys in this city.
We once saw Thomas Wine and his
assistants drive 100 turkeys into
this city More than once we have
seen Henderson g. Son have from
700 to 1000 geese in one flock,
Now held your breath. One OF
two car loads of dressed turkeys
