We UNDERSTAND that the Hon.
Sam Byrns of Jefferson county is
saying that if he captures the
Democratic nomination for Cir
cult Judge that he will get a
thousand Republican votes at the
general election in November.
Why? AS a reward for his treach-
cry to the Democratic ticket in
1904? We have been recently in
formed that Mr.. Byrns is now
supporting Mr.. Berkeley in the
municipal campaign for city at
torney of De Soto, and yet he
could not support him when he
was the Democratic nominee for
Circuit Judge in 1904. Mr.. Byrns
lacks consistency, to say the least.

Dead at 90.

Sunday, March 9th, 1910, at 3
o'clock A. NJ, died Henry Vale
(colored), more Familiarity known
as "Uncle Quito" aged 80 years,
7 months, and % days, Although
enfeebled through advanced age,
the immediate cause of his death
was from injury sustained by a
severe fall a week previous. In
that fall he broke a leg and thence
to the end was helpless and bed
fast.
"Uncle Quito was born a slave,
at Fredericktown, Mo-, August 4th,
1871, and for more than thirty
years lived in that town. When
the California "gold fever broke
out, he, with his master, was
among the first to make the long,
wearisome and dangerous journey
to the western coast. They did
well placer mining and returned
home after a couple of years.
Then "Uncle Henry was manu-
mitted by his owner and became
a free man, and went. again to the
Golden State-this time, by agree
ment, to earn the money necessary
to purchase the freedom of his
wife, who was still held in bond
age. He succeeded in his venture,
and returned not only with the
money necessary to gain his OBJ
ject, but with a comfortable sur
plus. Though at his return in 1864
the civil war had practically abol-
ished slavery and his wife was vir-
tually free, he stood true to his
bargain with his cold massa" and
insisted upon paying every dollar
of the price that had been agreed
upon. After the wal they located
in Ironton and here they lived
happy and content for many
years. About fourteen years ago,
"Aunt Willie" the wife, died and
since then the aged man lived un-
to himself in his little cottage on
Main street-cultivating his garden
and doing for himself. Though
his hand grew weaker and weaker
with the advancing years, yet he
did that that came to him sturdily
in intent, atNleast-and cheerful
ly. He was, in his time of strength,
a successful hunter, we'll versed in
woodcraft. Many a deer and
turkey fell victim to his skill; but
the last four or five years, though
he still s%houldered his gun and
trod the forest depths, he COM
planned that his old-time cunning
had gone, and that he made the
attempts because he was "used to
it." His feeble stepand trembling
hand and dimming eyes had the
pathos of closing life clinging to
the habits and pleasures which
gave zest to the earlier days. The
deceased had no immediate rela-
tives here; he made a will a
couple of years ago, but it is not
known what disposition is made
of his estate, which amounts to
several thousand dollars.
"Uncle Quito" was honest and
pure-lived, loyal, with no thought
Of wrong toward anyone. He
died, as he had lived, a Catholic
of childlike faith. His remains
were taken to Pilot Knob church
Monday morning 10 o'clock, and
thence, after the usual funeral
service, to the Catholic cemetery,
where they were laid to rest.

This section is very badly in
need of rain, as the extreme warm
weather of the past two weeks has
made the top of the ground very
dry, and while vegetation is not
suffering particularly, forest fires
are causing a great deal of damage.
On Sunday several calls we're sent
for help, from adjacent farmers.
Mr.. Hunt lost a long string of fence
and his buildings were in DANGER
and at the present writing the fire
is still burning. Fires have also
destroyed a large quantity of
fence between here and Center
Vile. On Sunday quite a little ex-
element was caused by a fire in
the road at the outskirts of town
which is covered with shavings
from the hub mill. This fire was
caused by some one having
cropped a lighted match, or the
ashes from a pipe on these dry
shavings, and with the high wind
at the time the entire village was
threatened, but a bucket brigade OF
about thirty men and boys soon
subdued the flames without serious
damage.

Easter Sunday was certainly an
ideal day with US; the air being
balmy as is usually the case in
NAV. The weather is too dry for
farmers, and many have been
forced to stop blowing, owing to
the ground being so hard. 1t is
said that wheat has already been
very materially damaged owing to
the dry weather.
1t is now definitely settled that
the peaches are practically all
killed, but unless killed later, there
