Tidal Wave Struck Delaware County

Tidal Wave Struck Delaware County
A great temperance wave swept
over Delaware county, N. Y, last
week. Every town where the ques-
tion came up went dry, but three;
Roxbury, 81, Davenport, 26, and Col
chester, 3S. Stamford village and
Middletown were license and the
question was not voted on. Aside
from these four towns and one viii
lage, the county of Delaware will be
as dry as Sahara, after October /,
1910. Walton went no license by
the unprecedented majority of 325.
Two years ago the no license major
ity was 26 and four years ago %.
Delhi no license "a, Hamden 1873,
Sidney 108, Hancock $50, Stamford
town 40, Masonville AZ, Tompkins
15, Kortright 25. The other towns
were no license and will remain so
at least until another town election.

WEDNESDAY,.

Rev. A. L. Whitaker, of the Epis-
copal church, conducted the devot-
ional exercises on Wednesday morn
ing.
DR.. Schmucker continued instruc-
tion on Nature Study. There are
several difficulties in your minds as
to teaching Nature. Greatest of
these perhaps is lack of time. Our
programs are too full already. Do
not try to make a place on your pro-
gram for this study. Do not call 1t
Nature Study to your class but have
a definite plan in your own mind and
a subject for the week. Suppose
you choose the apple; bring one to
the drawing class on Monday. Draw
ing an object will make the child
observe 1t as nothing else will. On
Tuesday use the apple in your Lam
guage class; in this way use 1t in
different classes through the week
and you have gained a great amount
of information with no extra time
devoted to the subject.
DR.. Rigdon spoke again on Gram
mar. 1t is not always necessary to
make the subject interesting. Some
times the pupils must get down to
hard work and conquer difficulties
as such. Bducation consists in get
ting ideas and then relating them,

CAMPBELL STOCK LA w.

Campbell has stock law that ap-
plies only to hogs, and judging from
the following in a recent issue of the
Citizen, that paper is not quite salts
fed. Here's the gem:
"Have you observed how energeti-
cally Old Brindle has been trying to
destroy shade trees, evergreens and
gardens by poking her long neck over
your fence and bending the wire out
of shape with her breast? See how
nicely she clipped the top off of your
neighbor's shade tree just as it had
begun to put forth few delicate
leaves? Notice how intelligently she
selects the weak places in your garden
fence, pushes it over, walks in and de-
YOURS a row of marrowfats before you
can inform her they are your property.
Did you cuss old brindle? No, no,
the good old prowling rogue is the
mother of Mrs. Gotum's babies and if
she is not allowed to forage on other
peoples property these precious babies
will suffer. Besides this, John Hard
worker gets buttermilk from Mrs. Co
tum, and John is poor man, unable
to own COW, and his children would
also suffer if Old Brindle is deprived
of the use of other peoples gardens,
lawns and orchards. Don't treat Old
Brindle as you have the hogs, for she
is the life, the soul, the marrow and
the backbone of every family in town
and no town can thrive without her
presence on the streets. That's why
st. Louis, Kansas City, Joplin, ST.
Joe and several other towns of the
state are in such a bad shape-the
cussed old city dads won't let Old
Brindle have free use of the streets
and other folks property"
The Hayti herald. (Hayti, Mo.) 1908-1922, 1909-04-29
OUR POSITION.

The stock law may be too early, and
it may not carry at this election, and
we are not making a fight for it, but
merely placing this paper fairly on re-
cord for civic advancement and inn
provement. Several people have
sought to muzzle us on this question
and have threatened to damage US in
a business way, and for this very
reas on, to show the people that this
paper is not to be prevented from
standing for what it honestly believes
to be right, we are forced in protec-
tiOn to our own honor, dignity and
good name to show just where we
stand. A newspaper that can be
bought, bulldozed or bluffed, is not
fit to go into the homes of any self
respecting people, and before we
would conduct that kind of paper we
would step down and out Every one
agrees that the time is coming when
we must have stock law. 1t Ia for
the people, and not for US, to say
when that time comes. We do not and
have never said that time was NOW,
but we do say that when the time does
come and when the majority of people
want it and the majority of them vote
for US, but for the PEOPLE to say.
The Hayti herald. (Hayti, Mo.) 1908-1922, 1909-04-29

A certain citizen of Hayti who has
about 80 head of hogs running at
large on our streets, openly confesses
that he has fed about 1000 pounds of
spoiled meat from the butcher shop,
but no corn, during the past winter
How do you like the idea of eating
hogmeat fattened this way? This is
only one example. There used to he
a butcher here who fattened his hogs
in a slaughter pen and then killed these
for the people to eat OF course the
meat was not good, but the people did
not know why. Town-raised hogs
are fed very little corn and make very
unhealthy meat.
The Hayti herald. (Hayti, Mo.) 1908-1922, 1909-04-29
May 1st, will meet the appreciation of
all concerned.

1t makes us tired to see a lot of men
cursing, abusing and lambasting this
paper who have never spent a cent
with it. When you hear man say
ing hard things against the Hayti
Herald, kindly ask him If he is sub
scriber and If he has paid receipt,
or come to our Office and look over
our books. Nine out of ten of these
loud mouthed people are enemies to
the town and to everything in it, and
never miss chance to give it a stab.
We have but few of such names on
our books, and as fast as we can dis
cover them we will mark off those who
have not paid. No good citizen and
friend to Hayti will fail to support
Hayti newspaper.
The Hayti herald. (Hayti, Mo.) 1908-1922, 1909-04-29

matter squarely before the people, the
Herald cannot consistently make a
fight either way, only to express our
honest opinion, and if expressing an
honest opinion is wrong and we are to
be denied this right, we are free to
confess that our eleven years citizen
ship in Hayti has been spent in vain,
but we know all the good, progressive,
wideawake people who want to see
Hayti become city are with us, and
while many of them may feel that it is
too early now for stock law, yet they
know it must come, sooner or later, If
Hayti ever becomes a city, and if they
do not vote for it now it does not mean
that they are against it, but simply
that they believe the time for it has
not come.
All towns of any consequence must
have stock laws. A stock law is an
absolute necessity in order to have a
clean, well-kept, healthy and beautiful
town. The towns all around us have
stock laws, and every newspaper in
Southeast Missouri favors a stock
law. But in every town where stock
law is enacted there are class who
fight it. This is to be expected, and
if you are opposed to a stock law you
have a perfect right to go out and
fight it with all your might and main;
you would not be honest if you did not
fight for your opinion, but if you are
a gentleman or a lady and possess
self-respect, intelligence and honor,
and have due regard for the feeling,
rights, opinions and privileges of
others, you will lay down your little
hammer, your envy and your spite;
you will cast aside i'll and personal
feeling and allow others the same rights
that you, yourself, enjoy.
Vote like you please and do not
blame others for doing the same.

THAT STOCK LAW.

To put quietus on some of those
old long-tongued gossipers, the kind
that are always ready to go off half
cooked and talk about things they
know nothing about and when they
disagree with you start out to injure
you in business way by underhanded
methods, let US turn to our issue of
APRIL 8, the 9Th of this month, if you
please, and see what we had to say
about 1t.
Here it is; read it:
I'VE were little surprised to
learn that a petition for a Stock
law had been handed in Ito the
city counciD and REGRET THAT
THE PARTIES DID NOT WAIT

STOCK LAW IN MAIDEN.

Maiden Merit. The Mayor and
Board of Alderman have mutually
agreed not to modest milch COWS going
to and coming from the pastures in
the swamps. However, the COWS must
be kept up at night Hogs, goats,
horses and other animals will not he
permitted to run at large on the streets.
We believe this decision of the Mayor
and Board of Alderman, to take effect
The Hayti herald. (Hayti, Mo.) 1908-1922, 1909-04-29

Can you read that and understand
it?
That is exactly what we said.
What are You going to say now.
1t generally pays to know what you
are talking about before you talk, and
people who are always ready to deride
their home paper are very undesirable
citizens and will never do the town
any good,
Look about you and see what the
paper has done for the town in its
short life of six months.
Look at the harmony of the people.
Look how, after months of suspen-
sion, the board gotten down to work,
looking after the interest of the town,
collecting taxes, etc.
Look at the new sidewalks and other
public improvements.
The ladies of the town organized
Civic League for the upbuilding and
advancement of the town.
Trees have been planted on the
square.
Fencing has been ordered to fence
the square.
Everybody is pulling together and
working together for greater and
better Hayti.
The Hayti Herald has done more
actual good for the town during its
Si< he or ha
agency has done for the town in five
years, and is invariably on the side
of right, yet there are lot OF people
in the town who are not subscribers
enemies TO the town. We want every
business man and every friend to Hay
ii to come to our Office and look over
our list of subscribers and know just
who they are.
Now, for the stock law. What we
said on April 3 shows our spirit of
fairness to the people, by desiring a
longer time in which to talk matters
over and arrive at an intelligent
understanding of the question.
We cannot expect too much at once,
and ought not to expect to do too
much at once.
We must learn that every person
has RIGHT to his OPINION. This
right cannot be denied
Any person has a right to favor or
oppose the stock law, just as they
have right to be Methodist or a
Baptist.
Not all of US can have our way,
even if we do have our opinion.
In affairs of government the MA
JORITY MUST RULE.
Ii we live under government we
must abide by and be submissive to
its laws.
If majority of the people in Hayti
want a stock law let them have it, if
they vote for it and put it into effect
For our part, we favor stock law,
in mild form.
We favor a stock law that will not
molest country stock except where it
takes up in the town and refuses to
leave.
A stock law should permit town
stock to go and return from the range,
but require owners to keep it up at
night.
Hogs should be prohibited from
running at large.
A strict ordinance should be enacted
prohibiting watering or feeding stock
on the outside, as this acts as a bait
to cause them to stop at such places.
Such law as this, we believe,
woald be a good compromise and ac-
ceptable to all fairminded people.
But we do not say that the stock
law will carry at this election, as the
time is so short that campaign OF
education cannot be made. On this
account, not having time to place the
