Sentenced!

If the House of Representatives
adopt the resolution passed in the
Senate on Monday, calling upon the
National Monetary Commission to
present its report on January 8,
1912, and thereafter cease to exist,
the end of the Aldrich currency
body will be fixed definitely. 1t is
impossible to regard this action by
the Senate which. from all present
indications, will be cOncurred in by
the House of Representatives as
other than a slap at the Aldrich
Organization" particularly at the
the former Senator himself. AL
though the commission comprises
several former and a few present
members of the Senate, that fact
did not deter our upper chamber
from passing the resolution afOre-
mentioned by the very decisive
vote of Sc to 6, a fact which proves
rather cOnclusively that the Senate
at least, thinks that the National
Monetary Commissions affairs
should be brought to end.
And there is good reason for its
belief, at that. About year and
half ago ex-senator Aldrich was
informing the country that the com.
mission had no plan" in mind fol
the reformation of our currency
system; that he had no plan" In
mind; and that it was impossible
for him OF his colleagues to set
date when a final recommendation

A single page in a single issue of
the Century taken for advertising
purposes cost $500; in Harper's,
$500; in other prominent maya
zines from $3.50 to 500. A yearly
adv ertisement of one column in the
Chicago Tribune, costs $4,000; in
the New York Tribune, $4,000 for
the lowest and $8995O for the
highest rates; in the New York Her
aid, $36,203 for the lowest and
$4,000 for the highest priced col
umn. These papers it is said, are
never at a loss for advertising to
fill their columns. These figures
will doubtless be Of interest to the
man who invests $40 and flatters
himself with the idea that he is a
liberal advertiser. -Warrensburg

A neighborhood fish fry was held
on Salt River near the Key ford last
Thursday which was enjoyed by
quite crowd. A novel feature of
the occasion was watermelons were
plentiful and free to everybody, as
well as all other eatables and re-
Ereshments on the grounds.

An Overlooked Item.

During the recent gathering OF
the Press Association the editors
became reminiscent and related
many anecdotes of their trials with |
advertisers and subscribers. A
publisher from one of the river |
counties said that he had on his |
list man who had taken his paper
regularly every since it was started
in 1860, but he finally lost him be-
cause the ancient0patron had pur- ,
chased a bottle of hair remover adj
vertised in the paper he had taken
so long, giving as a reason for his
action that the hair renewer" had
eliminated from his head what few
hairs there were at its application.
This evoked quite a discussion as
to a publishers duty to ascertain
the merit or non-merit of the article
he advertised, and the general
opinion was that the oldest SUBJ
scriber" had a good cause of action
against the editor for his bald head.
AS bearing upon the complaints
of patrons, j. A. Hudson, now of
Columbia, Mo-, but formerly editor
OF the Macon Times, told this:
IF the editor of a weekly news
paper foreets and leaves out some
thing of Importance it is a more
serious matter than with the editor
of the weekly has to wait seven
days, by which time his story will
be ancient history.
When / was operating the Macon
Times | took a great deal of pride
in closing up the forms Thursday
night on every matter of real in
terest that had happened during the
week. The day Of publication was
always a busy one and sometimes
the whole force would work from
eight in the morning till midnight
or after in getting the stuff up. 1t
was the work on Thursday that
counted most.
Il recollect one busy Thursday in
the summer time when we began
early and labored until far into the
night. There had been lots of
things happening that week, and
the boys were all feeling good over
getting out a craCkerjack paper,
even if it did take a little extra
work We had a long report of
the Republican convention, an in
teresting story from the coal mines
at Bevier, a strong editorial on good
roads, then as now a live topic; a
romatic elopement from one of the
north counties to Macon; a sensa-
tional capture of crooks by the
sheriff, a notice from all the preach
ers about their Sunday services and
a page of personals and society
events. 1t was by far the biggest
paper we had put out during the
year, and yet as the hour of print
ing arrived | was haunted with the
, feeling that something of vital con,
Germ to the community had beer
| overlooked. Sometime during the
day a man had given me an item
! to print, and while it impressed me
as something of unusual significance
yet for the life of me l could mo-
recall the man or the story. l wen
through the notebook l used fol
such things time after time, bu
found no help there. Whatever i
7 was had forgotten to jOt it down
t | held the press an hour while tn,
