The death Of John Upchurch was
the result of his bein stabbed in the
back Of the neck One PARTY to the
murder is being held at Mound CITY.
the other is allowed to 90 free or is
in hiding With such d plain case
it is certainly TO be hoped that the
guilty one will be punished, A
failure to find the guilty one or to
administer just punishment will be
due entirely 70 lax methods or III
efficiency on the part OF the Of
ficiels. It is to be hoped, for the
safety of the community that Justice
be dealt the guilty person.
Our meeting is progressing nicely
Mr. Carlin is an able speaker and we
extend an invitation to the sur
rounding country feeling that they
will be repaid for their trouble in
coming. 1t is very unusual for a
town the size Of OImtsead to secure
Ia man with the reputation ana
ability possessed by Mr.. CarlIn
Come up or over and hear him. We
have ample room and you can hear
every word.
The car OF tile ordered by the
town board has arrived and will be
put in place shortly.
It is amazing and also ridiculous
to hear some Of the stalls put forth
by various citizens wnen it comes to
paying poll tax. Almost always the
fellow trying to dodge has horse
and buggy, too.
We need rain badly in this sec
ton and late corn is suffering,
Great weather for curing hay
though.
This. is the banner week at the

families from the interior and they
are enjoying the ideal camping

from the log cabins Of Kentucky and

Virginia and the Carolinas and from old
communities in the eastern states.
Not few came direct from Ireland,

The population was cosmopolitan from

ty, Missouri, in convention assembled,
reaffirm our devotion TO the principles
and policies Of the republican party as
declared in its last national platform
We especially voice our approval Of
the republican policy OF protection and
our opposition TO the democratic policy
Of free trade in agricultural products,
whether with Canada or other nations
OF the world
Believing that Theodore Roosevelt
stands for the principles and policies
of the republican party, as declared in
its last national platform, and that he
represents, as no other man represents,
those principles and policies Of govern
ment upon which we must appeal fol
a majority Of the votes Of the American
people, and believing that his nomina.
,ion would insure success in the nation
and the state in the coming election,
we hereby direct the delegates from
this county to the congressional con

over what prevailed under democratic
rule during nearly forty years previous
TO his election.
We approve with special satisfaction
the official acrs of State Game and Fish
Commissioner Jesse A. Toleg,on, be-
cause they are able, business-like and
beneficial. and because Mr.. Tolerton
is a favorile son OF Taney county in
whose brilliant and successful career
our people feel deep interest.
