The Montgomery tribune. (Montgomery City, Mo.) 1892-1910, 1909-09-03

A certain indication of the
ability and effectiveness with
which Governor Hadley is adj
ministering the affairs of state is
the vicious and unwarranted at
tacks that Democratic news
papers, especially the ST, Louis
Republic and the disreputable
corporation-controlled sheet, the
Kansas City Post, are now
making upon him. And yet the
only thing these papers can
charge against the governor is
that he tried to make the rail
roads of Missouri give the peo-
pie of this state as low passenger
rates as the people of contiguous
states, and that he insisted OH
the Kansas City Board Of Elec-
tion Commissioners giving to
the people Of that city an honest
election, These are the only
things the Democratic organs
can find 70 abuse the governor
about.

During the state campaign last
year the Republican State Com
mittee, through the speaker in
the field, the Press Bureau and
the literature sent out empha-
sized the fact that the main is
II was honest elections in
the big cities. The Republican
nominee, Herbert S. Hadley
made an insistent demand for
elections and promised that if
elected governor he would exert
every possible effort to guar
antee every honest citizen the
right to cast one ballot and have
it honestly counted. He will ac-
complish what he promised.

MOTH PESTS IN THE FALL
Solution Of carbolic Acid Will Help
Housekeepers in Fighting
Their Enemy.

Many housekeepers, even expert
enced ones, feel that if they have sue.
ceeded In outwitting the voraclcus
moth during the summer months there
is nothing more to fear from him. In
point Of fact. the fall months are dan
gerous, particularly where town
house is not opened until late.
If one finds moths around in the
fall and does not wish to go TO the
trouble of getting more camphor or
tar balls for comparatively short
period, let them try the carholic acid
cure.
Wipe off the wood work, shelves
and floor OF closet or wherever dan
ger of moths lies, with solution OF
carbolic acid. Be careful In doing
this that none gets on the hands, as
IL burns badly when too strong.
After wiping down the woodwork
a little of the acid may be put in the
cup of small alcohol stove The
heating causes the fumes to rise
through the closet and helps in the
moth fighting

Missouri Fish story.

Keytesyille. While at the Ice
pond fishing few days ago. w. r.
Sweeney noticed large spider on q
leaf at the edge of the water that
seemed to be fishing also. The spider
would put out one leg in the water,
shake 1t little bit and then wait
BY and by a minnow came to the top
and grabbed the spiders foot.
This seemed to be what 1t was wait
ing for, and without minutes hesi-
tation it sprung onto the minnow, be-
ing carried under the water several
times, but never releasing its hold on
the fish until 1t ceased TO struggle and
was dead. when the spider hauled its
prey ashore. to be devoured at leisure.
In trying to land the struggling min
now the spider would lay hold of q
leaf cr weed on the shore and hang
there with death-like grip, and at
last landed his catch in that way.
