SPECIAL ROAD DISTRICTS
AND POLL TAX LEVIES

Editor Times: There is right
smart of talk on this law (if there
is any such law for creating spe-
cial road districts. People around
here think the getting mp of n spe-
cial road district may lee all right, but
to make man work the roads that
is over 10 years old, just work in
this special district up to 60 years
is against any constitution. If there
is any need of working man up to
60 wears, well, make them all work
to that age. What o1 that phrase,
equal rights to all and special privi-
leges To none? Right Is right and

Yours truly,
FRANK NEY

We'll, friend Ney, il doesn't look
just right that under the general
road law n man is exempt from poll
tax at the age of fifty, while in spc-
cial road districts the law fixes the
age Of exemption at sixty. Up to
fifty Is certainly long enough for II
man to he subject to poll tax, but
for some reason that we don't I'M
derstand the lawmakers who drafted
the statute under which special road
districts are organized saw fit to
levy a poll tax against the male in
habitants thereof up to his siYticth
year. Section l0j75, of the 1909 re-
vised laws of Missouri relating 10
roads, highways and bridges. The
only remedy now is to get your Rep
resentative to try to have the law
amended at the next session Of the
Legislature.

Young man, l notice that you are
not in school any more. What's the
matter? Think you have received
enough education to carry you
through the world? Or do you stay
out just because you do not like to
go? Didn't like the teacher, eh!
Well let me tell you that you will
find the meanest teacher on earth

the bosses you will work under in
the cold aud unfeeIing years you
will plow into when you have to
get out and hustle for yourself.
Education is the most valuable
thing in the world to a man, but
to boy it comes the cheapest.
1t costs you nothing now to get
that for which many a man in town
would give all he has to possess.
You have the winning number in
the lottery of education if you play
it now. Loaf around few years
and you will always draw a blank
1t is true that any man can make
a living, but you will notice tha,

Bradstreet's forecast for 1910.

Reasons for confidence in an ex
celieut, if not record, trade in 1910
are many. The agricultural inter.
est is prosperous a. never before in
the country's history. and the frst
of the greatcrops of the year-wheat
-enters the wiuter in excellent con.
dition on a next-to record area.
High prices for all farm produce
would seem to guarantee enormous
paintings of all crops this year.
Spring orders already received by
jobbers and wholesalers and busi-
ness booked by manufacturers prac-
t1caliy insure the full or overtime
now being run until next years
crop and trade outlook takes more
definite form. While it might be
erroneous to expect the record
building expenditures of 1909 to be
exceeded in 1910, au active years
business is looked for. II is gener-
ally conceded that the railroads will,
be free spenders for improvements
in the coming year. Finally, if re
ports as to holiday aud retail buy
Ing are correct, public purchasing
power, despite high prices ruling,
seems to be fairly normal. All these
things indicate activity in a high
d gree. Mo flying or qualifying
these features somewhat ,s the
question of the effect increased price
levels of comm odit,es, and therefore
of all costs of business and indus
trial operation, will have upon gen.
eral business. These have already
Iessened profits and bid fair to be
productive of much friction in in
dustrial lines. IT the activity con-
fidently looked for eventuates. ac-
tive money markets and firm rates
would seem probable. Indeed. the
calm in speculation after earlier
activity resulting in new high rec.
ord price levels is taken by come tc
indicate that the securities markets
have already discounted much ot
the future. Conservatism and tao,
ia dealing with the labor situation
and with the politico-economi<
Questions which are pressing fol
solution would seem necessary il
what now looks like a very excellen
trade outlook is to be fully realized
in 1910.

c. b. MILLER, who was elected to
congress on a strict anti-Cannon
platform and who, despite his her
aided promises to the people of his
district was one of the heartiest sup
porters of Cannon in his last fight,
is evidently looking ahead to the
possibility of an reinforcement" by
the people of the district and to that
end has engaged the services of a
press agent. Clarence might as we'll
save his money and his wind. Peo-
pie have admiration for an honest
difference of opinion, but they have
neither admiration or patience with
a wishy.washy who will make his
campaign on one principle and then
as openly support another after
