would do honor to the senate Of Rome.
But whatever may be the texture
Of the board in this or that platform.
which inspires this or that clan, our
position, palinly stated is to support
the man or men who are In favor of
progress.
Probably the greatest issue of this
little campaign Is the stock law. We
endorse the stock law. We have no
scrupples In the matter of extreme
dantiness, but we do draw the line
on having cowtoid walks, and max
Ing public pastures Of private yards.
This may be the wrong way to look
at II, but It is our opinion, neverthe-
less.
We hope the incoming admlnistra-
ton will favor the crawling of the
leyee road in West Hickman, and
push the building of concrete walks
all over town; that they have plenty
Of backbone to back up their ideas
Of public welfare.
The best interests of the City of
Vckman, as we see them, is our
platform. We are under obligations
to no man or set of men--more than
that obligation which every man owes
to his neighbor.
From a personal interest point of
view land this view is sometimes en-
tirely too POPULAR, the roguish bo-
vine does not disturb our yard or
slumbers; II she does, we can swat
her one on the porter-house and she
hiketh hence; but from the public
point of view, we believe all well
regulated cities and towns keep cat
tie off the streets. Even the milk
COW provision" is oftimes imposed
upon. Under the old regime, classed
as milk cows, a half dozen bull year
ling browsed with impunity almost in
the stores on Clinton street. This
did not happen on some afternoon,
but the whole year round.
So, as far as the cattle platform is
concerned, we are prohibitionists-
others are justly entitled to be state
widers" If they believe that way.
The present Board has fought a
good fight. II they had never done
anything else, they have a splendid
nument to their remembrance in
the way of concrete walks. But these
gentlemen, with one exception, we un-
derstand, will not ask to be re-elect-
ed, and a new set Of men must take
the reins of city government in a
short time.
We have not bothered ourselves
with trying to find out what men
are mentioned on the different states.
There are good, capable men in every
section of the town, and we hold
hold them all in high esteem wheth-
er they represent our views or some
other element. Our motto is the
greatest good to the greatest num-
Der OF people, and we shall endeavor
to support the man we think comes
nearest filling this in the largest
measure. regardless of religious, politi-
cal, or financial standing. and shall
not care what part of town they are
from.
Let's use our best judgement in Sc
elcting these men-try to get those
who stand for the advancement of
Hickman rather than personal inter-
ests, If any there be who might de-

HOME GROWN RICE.

1t is a remarkable fact that the
soil and climate of New Madrid
county produces abundant crops of
every kind of grain. fruit and vegeta-
bles which have been tried. The lat
est experiment was made by Jack
Mann, who lives two miles south of
Gideon, in Anderson township, with
rice, and proved so highly succe S.
full that a regular crop will be sowed
next year, and the prospect is, that
grain will become a regular crop,
hereafter,
A friend gave Mr.. Mann a small
quantity, last winter, enough to SOW
a quarter of an acre, and it has pro-
duced 20 bushels. Next season, this
will be sowed on 20 acres, and ii is
confidently believed it will produce
$500 bushels-100 bushels per acre.
The sample shown the Record by Mr..
Mann is a larger, better grain than

If rice can be grown at New Mad
