No Need to Stop Work.

When your doctor orders you to stop
work, it staggers you I can't" you
say. You know you are weak, run
down and failing in health, day by day,
but you must work as long as you can
stand What you need is Electric
Bitters to give tone, strength and vigor
to your system, to prevent breakdown
and build you up. Don't be weak,
sickly or ailing when Electric Bitters

racked with coughs, are urged to 60 to

The Attorney General has decided
that the Senate Junketing Committee
can not have a good time down east at
the expense of the State. Too bad!
But it seems good enough for them,
when one recalls the fact that Cover
nor Hadley suggested to the Legisla
ture the appointment of similar COM
mittee in way that would have been
legal. But, no! The Legislature, and
especially the Senate, delighted in
ignoring any and everything that came
from Governor Hadley, and so no one
should be sorry for the distinguished
Democratic Senators appointed by the
Senate, as members of this committee.
They robbed themselves in spite of
the Governors counsel.

Judge Marshall, the lawyer who is
conducting the contest of the defeated
Democrats in the supreme court, was
formerly a member of that court. His
effort to read into the record OF the
special court Commissioner every tech
nichal objection that can be pointed
out in honest ballots cast in St. Louis
indicates that he hopes to win on
merely technical grounds and that the
fact that such ballots were honestly
cast and counted will not have feath-
er's weight. But the Republican law
yers will have a list of Democratic bal
lots as defective technically as Mar
shall's list of Republican ballots.

Notice To District Clerks.

On the account of the Revised
School Laws not being published yet,
I wish to call attention to change in
the Compulsory Attendance Law.
Sec. 1O899a, reads as follows: 1t
shall be the duty of the secretary of
the board in city, town or village
schools, and of the clerks of the board
in other districts, to file with the
county superintendent on or before
the end of each of the first three quar-
ters of any school term the names ot
parents, guardians or other persons
having control of children in his dis
trict who are not complying with the
provisions of section 1896 of this
article. The county superintendent
shall immediatly make an investigation
and if he finds that the parents guar
dians or other persons having charge
of such children are caelessly and
negligently refusing to comply with
section 1896 of this article he shall
he with the prosecutin gattornev such
information as he may possess touch
ing upon this question. The prose
cutting attorney shall proceed as in
any other misdemeanor case.
Most clerks are familiar with the
age limit etc., if not examine notice
to parent and guardians.
hope to get copies of the Schoo
Law soon. Yours truly,

Obituary..

A shadow of gloom has been cas-
| oe'r the small village of Kissee Mill:
! taken from it one of our brightes
youths Bonnie Boswell the oldest sor
of Mr.. and Mrs. R. G. Boswell dice
Aug. IA 1911 at the age IS years 4
months and 20 days of malarial and
pneumonia fever. He was born neal
Forsyth Mo. March 25 1896. He
was good turn toward every one and
was obedient boy at home was never
known to have trouble with any one.
He had labored hard all summer and
had laid plans for attending school this
winter. He was a great lover of books
and had longed for good education
so he could some day hold a good
position he had completed the seventh
grade and had been promoted to the
eighth grade. He attended the School
of the Ozarks couple of terms and the
rest of the time had attended school at
home. He was strong hearty youth
measuring SIT II inches. He was
confined to his bed ID days and bore
his suffering without a murmur. He
will long be missed by his young
associates he leaves father, mother,
three sisters and three brothers and
aged grandmother and host of rela-
tives and friend to mourn his loss. He
was laid to rest at the Snapp graveyard
by the side of his grand father and
grand mother Wisdom.
Dearest Bonnie thou hast left US
and our loss we deeply fell
But It's God that has bereft US
He can all our sorrows heal
Yet again we hope to meet thee
When the day of life is fled
When IN heaven in Joy to greet thee
Where no farewell tears are shed
It is sad that one we cherish
Should be taken from cur
home.
But the joys that do not perish
Live in memory alone.
All the years we've spent together
All the happy golden hours
Shall be cherished in remember
ance

The people are watching the pro-
ceedings at St. Louis in the contest
cases with an interest unknown to the
partisan schemers who are trying to
get before the supreme court a record
on which to base a motion to throw
out the vote of wards or precincts and
thus seat the defeated democratic con-
testants for Supreme Judges and Sup
erintendant of schools. Technicalities
will not do. Anything like sharp prac
tice will not do. The people are con-
vinced that Brown, Kennish and Evans
were fairly and honestly elected by
the will of majority of legal voters
and and tampering with the result
must be on broad grounds and in the
open, or the people will resent the en-
tire proceedings,

The Republican State Committee is
burdened with heavy expenses on ac-
count of the contest proceedings ms
tituted ann now being pressed by the
by the defeated Democratic nominees
for State Offices. The elected Repub-
lican nominees, .Messrs. Kennish,
Brown and Evans must be defended
by the State committee. Loyal Re
publicans should aid the State Com
in this matter promptly and and liber-
ally.

Announcement.

On September first deal was closed
whereby Frank F. Baily became the
owner of the plant, subscription list
and business of the Taney County Re-
publican, having bought the same from
Joe G. Upton.
When we came here last fall we did
not know whether we would stay OF
not. and took lease on the paper for
one year with the option of buying at
any time during the life of the lease.
We want to thank the subscribers to
the paper and our other friends in
Taney county for the many acts Of
friendship and courtesy which have
been extended to US in the past, and
to say that we will try and merit a
continuance of their friendship and
support in the future. No man can
make a good county paper without
the help and support of the people of
the community in which the paper is
published, nor can any man expect to
please everybody in the community.
We have tried to do what we thought
was for the best interest of the whole
community, and will endeavor to follow
that same policy in the future. If
your views do not coincide with ours
on any question we believe that you
have just as much right to your opin-
ion as we have to ours, and no matter
whether our views are alike or not we
would be pleased to have you call and
see US whenever you are in the county
seat.

It is whispered around Jefferson City
that Attorney General Major will beat
Col. Dave Ball in the race for the
Democratic nomination for Governor.
1t is the talk of the Old Guard crowd.
AS it is not our funeral there is no
occasion for us TO weep over the corpse
but we may be excused for saying that
when Major beats Ball he will also beat
the whole Democratic State ticket, no
matter what name may be placed on it.

Trying to Make a Case.


Attorneys for the Democrats who
want Offices given by the people ir
| 1910 to Judges Brown and Kennish
and Prof. Evans are loading the special
Commissioner of the S upreme Court
with election records of St. Louis for
ten years past and volumes of testimony
showing that the election of 1910 in
St, Louis was extraordinary in many re-
spects as it surely was.
| But these lawyers are trying TO keep
out of the record the fact that the
Democratic committeeman in sSt.
Louis were not active in 1910 in be-
half of anything but the prohibition
amendment: that the Democratic work
ers were not united in support of any
OF the nominees on their State ticket;
| that CAN'T and Timmonds and Gass,
the contestants, were not supported by
an organized party, and that they nat
urely fell behind in the voting,
And they are trying to keep out of
of the record the fact that Democratic
| ward and precinct workers were not
permitted to register and vote Tom,
Dick and Harry in every precinct
as in former years when Democratic
election boards were easily controlled
for party purposes. And they are try
ing to keep out of the record the fact
tnat the Republican party workers were
we'll organized, that they got out their
party vote and that Republicans, Inde-
pendents and many erstwhile Demo
Gratis voted the Republican State ticket.
These facts the lawyers who are seek
ing to show the supreme court a way
to seat defeated Democratic candidates
do not care to recognize and much less
do they care to have them paraded
before the Supreme court Commission
er
It is the purpose of the attorneys for
the Democratic contestants to show
if possible, that the vote in many pre-
cincts was made legally doubtful by
technical violations of law on the part
of judges and clerks, the said lawyers
hoping, and probably expecting to have
the election in such precincts nullifed
by the supreme court. Their charge
of fraud having fallen fiat they now
would have the verdict of the people
overturned because few judges and
clerks were remiss in not properly
signing ballots. On mere TECHNICAL
ties, not affecting the the integrity of
the election, they would have the en-
tire vote of the city of St. Louis thrown
out in order to put two Republicans
elected by the people.
Able Republican lawyers are pro-
tecting the interests of Brown, Kennish |
and Evans and the record that goes |
from the Special Commissioner to the
Supreme court will contain much that |
the Democratic lawyers would eliminate
if they could and will not contain many
things they were anxious to get into it.
