lag. To do work on the road at
your own expense will not mean
that your time is being wasted or
given for the benefit of others
principally, it will mean profit 10
the way of added value to the
farm, as well as that derived from
the saving of wear and tear upon
vehicles and horses. Do little
thinking along this line, lay out a
piece of work and then get busy,
and your neighbor will soon catch
on. If only half mile of
road is made better than it was,
during the whole winter season, it
is so much gained. Farmers whose
lands adjoin should organize a good
road club and work in concert in
carrying on good road work.
Wake up and get busy, no one
else is going to do your work for
YOU.

MARRIAGE LICENSES.

Norman Benham was shot aud IA
tally wounded and VIM. Black, bar
keeper, was struck in the breast and
right arm by flying bullets during a
pistol fight in the "Spider" saloon at
Leadwood on Monday OF last week
James Shumake was also grazed in
several places, but not much hurt.
Benham, Shumake and Jas. Wells en-
tered the saloon and became noisy.
Black ordered them to keep quiet
or get out, which made them angry,
and Shumake, who is deputy sheriff,
handed Benham his pistol and the lat
ter began shooting at Black. Black,
who was at first unarmed got a gun
from another emgloye of the saloon
and turned loose on the crowd. When
the battle was over Benham was lying
on the floor with two bullet wounds
in his abdomen from which he died
Wednesday morning. Its the ole
story of whiskey and pistols over
again. We must have personal liber-
ty in these things, 40 matter what
the cost.

Benzoate of soda it seems will
not down, and on his return to
Washington the President will be
urged to appoint a commission TO
carry a further investigation Of the
practice of using this chemical as a
food preseryative. This brings to
mind the thought that the men who
manufacture food products doctor
ed with this stuff probably do not
eat it themselves. 1t enables them
to get the money to bny for their
own use food products that do not
need doctoring. AS we have said
before in these columns, The fact
that modern commercialism is al
lowed to profit at tho hazard of the
health of those who must of neces.
sity buy cheaply, is one of the Sc.
verest commentaries upon modern
social organization, The greed
for profit seems to stop ut nothing.

District Politics.

District politics. congressional
and judicial, are being freely dis.
cussed by our exchanges this early
in the game. In the matter of
congressional nominations there
does not seem TO be such a wide
diversion of choice. The Republi-
cans will doubtlessly nominate
Hon. Polite Elvins for re. e.election
without opposition, while the DEM
ocrats seem to be centering upon
State Senator John L. Bradley of
st. Francois county as the only
man who would have any chance
to defeat EIvins. Bradley's alleg-
ed popularity with the labor vote
in the Lead Belt is the urging
cause that is bringing him TO the
front for the Democratic nomina-
ton. The man who can carry
that vote is the one who will 90 to
congress. Still EIvips is not with
out strong following in the labor
vote of the Lead Belt himself, and
the friends of John l.. would net
find him running as easy as they
imagine. EIvins' efforts in behalf
of the tariff duties on lead and
barytes will get him a lot of new
supporters in St. Francois and
Washington counties.
The race for the nominations for
circuit judge, Republican and
Democratic, is still a free .for-all
and it looks like all were getting
into it, especially on the Demo
cratic side, where pretty nearly
every lawyer practicing at the bar
has his lightning rod raised to
catch the party preferment for.tbis
Office. Republican candidates for
this Office are not quite so numer.
Gus. So far only one, E. c. Edgar,
of De Soto has openly announced
himself. The present incumbent,
Judge Williams, is mentioned as
candidate for reelection. and
while be has made no definite state
ment of his purpose in the matter,
the friends of ex Congressman NJ.
E. Rhodes of Potosi believe that if
he decides to enter the race for the
nomination for this Office he can
get it. Among the Democrats
mentioned for the nomination are
Judge L. +. Dining, E. M. Dear
ing, E. T. Eversole, of this coun-
ty, with a similar quota Of favorite
sons from all the other counties in
the district.

Superintendent's Office, visited, in
the early part of last week, several
of the schools of this county. He
was much pleased with the condi-

inclemency of the weather there
was very small attendance at
some of the schools visited, SO in

obtain sufficient information to
pass upon the classification OF the
school, but in no case was there
any indication that it was below
the standard. Some of the schools
were up to state standards in class.
