Several things contributed to the
large Republican vote in st. Louis
first and foremost the German-Amer-
ican Republicans, who earnestly op-
pose Prohibition and who do moi
usually vote at off year elections, were
careful to record their votes against
the 10th amendment and being at the
polls voted their party ticket. -
Bates County Record.
AT Virginia the Republicans, who
were earnestly in favor of Prohibi.
ton, were careful to record their
votes for the 10th amendment. Here
is what we would like to know if the
Republican party is temperance par
ty, did the German-Americans sacri'
flee their intemperance principals by
voting the Republican ticket? Can il
be that the Republicans at Virginia,
who were so careful to record their
votes, for the 10th amendment sacri'
feed their Prohibition principals,
when they voted the Republican
ticket? Is it any more possible lfoI
the Republican party to make laws
against and for Prohibition than it |:
for a fountain to send out bitter anf
sweet water at the same time.

COMING GRAIN BELT
LOCATED IN SOUTH

Cincinnati o. Especial When
Col William Bruce Leffingwell, the
noted traveller and lecturer, delivers
his series of illustrated talks on The
South and It's Resources" at the Ohio
Valley Exposition, to be held in Gin
cinnati, he will lay particular stress
upon the fact that the South is the
coming grain section of the United
States. Col. Leffingwell will show,
by figures, photographs and moving
pictures, that farmers seeking new
agricultural worlds to conquer need
not travel to Canada, there to endure
climatic hardships in order to find a
new and productive section on which
to expend their labors and their
knowledge of farming. According to
the researches made by Col. Letting
well statistics show that much of the
land in the south that heretofore has
been devoted to the culture of cotton,
and which now Is being infested by
the dread boil weevil, can be made
more profitable by the scientific cult
walton Of wheat, corn, oats. barley
and other grains and farm products.

COTTON CONSUMERS
TO DISPLAY WARES
Cincinnati Firm Prepares For
Ohio Valley Expo.

Cincinnati, o. Especially What
will undoubtedly prove an interest
ing adjunct to the Southern States
Resources Exhibit at the Ohio Valley
Exposition, to be held here from Au-
gust 29 to September "a, will be the
display that now Is being arranged
by one of the largest manufacturing
firms OF Cincinnati. This corporation,
besides being a general cotton factor
for years, has recently been giving
much attention to the manufacturing
Of cotton mattresses, until now their
plant for the production of these
sleeping-room necessities, both in the
matter of quantity and quality, ex-
cells any other like business in the
United States. This firm consumes
hundreds OF tons Of cotton annually,
using from the finest through the
next two grades in the making of
mattresses, which ind a ready sale
in America and abroad. This Arm
has done some experimenting with
foreign grown cotton, but has found
the American product far superior
for its purposes, and so uses nothing
but the homegrown articles in the
manufacture of its tens OF thousands

"5UG" AND DOGGY"

ON connection with humbug,'
bugbear' and 'goldbug,' it may be
observed" says the London Chron-
icle, chat the last has probably no
direct suggestion of terror to the
American mind. Bug is freely
used in American for any kind Of
insect. Our English word, however,
is directly affiliated to the Celtic
word, which meant a demon or bo-
gey. 1t is conjectured that when
the Objectionable insect became ac-
climated here, which was not many
centuries ago, the terror of its at
tacks earned il its name. We get
bug in its old sense in Shakespeare
This Warwick was a bug that
feared us all'-and the terror by
night is 'bugge by night in old
Bibles"

half the time it takes now. You see

as bad as what is known as the
Grasshopper branch of the D., T.

county, o., where came FROM" re-
marked the friend. "It is an actual
fact that during hunting season the
engineer and the rest of the crew
carry shotguns and if the train
scares up a rabbit the engineer slows
up until they can get shot at it. I
heard they once actually stopped the
train long enough to hive lot of
bees that somebody saw in a tree"
"By the way" asked AIDE, "what
is the name of the D., T. & l. road?

She greatly hattered her young
hostess by requesting a slice Of the

Colonel Roosevelt has accepted this
invitation to come to Cincinnati dur

The date set for his visit is Friday,
Sept. 8. He will arrive in the morn

President Robert Reynolds and Di-
rectors OF the Exposition. After a
short stay at his hotel, he will be es-

where a program. arranged with his
approval, will be offered. Later In
the day he will spend some little
time at the home OF his son-ln-law,
Congressman Nicholas Longworth, al
though the greater portion Of his stay
in the city will be devoted to the Ex-
position. He will leave on the night

FOR oLD-FAsHIoNEp WOMAN.

Josephine Dasltam Bacon has Ia
ken for her text in her later stories
"Back to the Hearthstone" and is
trying to persuade women that the
only thing worth living for is to have
a hearthstone and stay there. AS
women never voluntarily left the
'Ghearthstone," but were forced from
it by necessity, it will be pretty hard
to coax them back, now that they
find it not essential to happiness.
Women simply made the best of a
bad situation and all the credit they
deserve should be given to them.
