A Tip to Tariff k

My Lords and Gentlemen To
levy a direct tax of Z per cent. is a
dangerous experiment in a free
country and may incite revolt;
but there is a method by which
you can take the last rag from the
back and the last bite from the
mouth without causing a murmur
against high taxes, and that is to
tax a great many articles of daily
use among the people, and SO
indirectly that the people will pay
them and not know it; their grum-
bling then will be OF hard times,
but they win not know that the
hard times are caused by taxation.

Obituary.

Little James Aaron Staab, son
of Arthur and Martha Staab, was
born near Des Arc, Mo-, Septem-
Der 10, 1907, and died June 5, 1909,
aged | year s months and rs days.
Little Aaron's death resulted from
the effects of measles. He was an
unusually large and beautiful
child and very affectionate and
friendly which made him a favorite
with all who knew him. Every
thing was done that willing hands
and loving hearts could do to e
lieve his sufferings and restore
him back to health, but God saw
fit to call him home. A short
service was held at the residence
which was conducted by G. w.
Wallis, after which they repaired
to the Des Arc cemetery where a
few brief remarks were made by
Rev. Geo. Taylor and the little
body consigned to the tomb, there
to await the final resurrection.
To the s%orrowing parents, grand
parents and friends we extend our
heartfelt sympathy knowing that
it is impossible just now to refrain
from weeping; but prepare.to meet
little Aaron where parting is no
more, neither sorrow nor crying,
for God shall wipe all tears from
our eyes.
Stay not the current of thy tears,
For they must flow, and tits a sad relief to
weep,
For one who frightened so thy way
Now lies in deaths cold sleep.
A baby's love! / know it is a treasure,
Which may by nothing earthly be replaced,
l know that this filled up with bounteous
measure,
OF Joy which thou didst taste.
And Jesus knows It'll Oh he did not call
Little Aaron from your loving side,
Without remembering you, your sorrows
He knows the hearts he's tried.
All earthly love is a thread of gold most
fair,
And yet the touch Of death may sever;
But Christ a cable sure of strength untold
Obi his love lasteth ever.
Your darling striketh now his harp Of gold,
And singeth %joyously his first new song;
The echo Of his melody hath rolled
The aisles Of heaven along.
He weareth raiment white, which angel
hands,
From full vestry Of the lamb hath brought,
With palm and crown before the throne
he stands
Who him by blood hath brought.
Gladness unspeakable his soul doth fill,
He hath no more pain or grief or sorrow;
Eternal bliss hath dawned on him,
He will see no sad tomorrow.
He might have passed thro' many weary
years
OF sickness, trouble and perplexity,
And as an autumn leaf all brown and scar,
Been shaken from the treel
He might have forfeited the heavenly prize
Had he lived longer on this earthly ground,
Then gaze no longer where his little body
lies,
Beneath the new made mound.
But look away toward that fair city,
Where radiant glorics only thou canst see;
Thou hast a darling now in heaven,
And there he waits TO welcome theei

NelUs:
A Bonnie Terre pastor takes the

the pastor is right-no decent

other numerous expenses incident

anything indecent in the "Bud-

clean and inoffensive except to the
minds of those who in their ultra

seek to compel their neighbor to

his moral oats in their circum-

"WE hear a great deal from
Democratic ources about the in
creased cost of living and the re-
sponsibility of the protective tariff
for this condition. While the cost
OF living has had an upward ten
dency in recent years, the tariff is
not as much responsible for it as
our Democratic friends would have
it appear. No one is so foolish as
to charge the present price of flour,
or, for that matter, the high price
of pretty nearly all farm products.

feet some of the necessaries of life,

If all the names appearing upon The
registry books of the city today repre-
sent that many actual voters, and all
these should vote today, there will be a
total of 3,433. This record-breaking
vote would be represented by the vari-
Gus wards as follows:
First ward. $40.
Second ward, 795.
Third ward, SS4.
Fourth ward, 55S.
Fifth ward 1856.
But this registration is in excess of
any vote that can be cast. for the rea>
son that the names of all voters who
have changed from one precinct to an
other appear duplicated. once as an old
voter in the former precinct, and again
as a new resident in the precinct IN
which the new registration Is made.
However, the vote this year should be
legitimately much larger than I'm any
previous city election for two reasons.
The population has grown very mater1-
ally in the past four years since the
last heated city contest, and the inter
est this year is apparently intense.

large in all wards, particularly that
