Spinning Over the Hills.

This week winter seems to have
closed in. But last week the roads
were good, the skies were bright and
and the temperature balmy, and then
with all these favorable conditions
Harry Church Of the Republican and
D. B. Wood hitched pair to a buggy
and took A ride as far south as Pinetop,
where Mr.. Church is postmaster. Here
they stayed all night with Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Church, at whose home they az
rived about noon on December 3lst,
Just three hours from Forsyth. When
il is said that the roads were good ii
does not mean in these parts that they
we're bouIevarded with asphalt or with
McAdam's mixture all the way, but
that there were stretches now and again
where the ponies could roI and make
good time.
The visitors went down the point a
few hundred feet east of the Sprinfeld
and Harrison road just below Pinetop
and saw Mr.. w. w. Southard's new
and convenient sawmill plant, where
there is no Tull for teams in or out Of
the grounds, where there is all kinds
of rot IN for stacking assorted lumber,
and water is pumped into large cis-
tern from a large spring and thus sup
plies the engine, the families living at
the mill and the teams employed in
hauling. Mr. Southland can turn out
| 5000 feet Of lumber dav, ard with
his facilities, the best we have seen in
the hills, he will make a big hole in
the pinery.
On New Years day they STATED
north but tuned west two miles this
side OF Pinetop and went by Tharp's
goat ranch down the long hill 10 Melva,
on the Mo. P. R. r., where a pretty
sixteen year old girl is storckeeper
pos,misuess and station agent, really
one CT the wonderful products Of tht
Ozarks. Driving fast down the steer
hill past the store and depot, Mr.
Church was kept from jumping out t,
visit in Melva and the horses feet wer

A Communication,

Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. At l
may, l would like TO submit an article
Of local interest TO the people of Taney
county.
Located at the head Of four mile Grand
Scene Bay, about midway between
Branson and Powersiie, is the destined
beautiful village Ct Grand Scene. Be
ing at the head Of the bay formed in
the lower portion Of Bull creek, Grand
Scene is by natural conditions predes-
tined TO be the most sequestered spot
on the big lake. Into the bay at Grand
Scene flow the crystal waters Of Bull
creek, forming The ideal fishing grounds
Of the big lake. Fish from the lake
will come to this point to spawn, hence
its advantages for fishing cannot be
excelled snywhere on the lake.
Grand Scene is the natural boa

bits his legs were waved through the
ambient air in frantic signals to the
train hands. But the train kept right
on and finally got past, and soon the
pretty town Of HolliSter, so fully ex-
plotted, was reached and inspected.
Hence over the splendid pike TO Kir'
byyille and by Mildred to Forsyth
was a matter Of an hour and half.
Both men declared they saw visions
of glory in the hills above Wolf branch
and Turkey creek, had absorbed
oceans Of ozone and had found as
much pleasure in the drive as they had
known since the long ago when they
used to take the girls out riding.

landing and shipping point for all the
country north, east and west for
miles. No village in the Ozarks could
more appropriately assume the name OF
Grand Scene. The natural beauty Of
the scenery along the bay will, together
with the advantages for boating, fish
ing and hunting, attract hundreds and
thousands Of people every year.
Mr. Renshaw, who is now building
a home, with the conveniences OF the
modem city home, is anxious to give
both a church and a school site, and
building material of the native timber.
We ask the good Offices Of the Repub'
lican, the School Of the Ozarks and
the citizens generally in our efforts to
get the little church and school.
There is at the present time an ex'
ccl.ent opportunity for grain and
lumber mill at the old mill site on the
Renshaw stock farm, at the head OF
the bay. There is also an unusual op-
poriunity for some hustling up'to'date
merchant. These two opportunities
are very excellent indeed A good
two and-on half story mill house is
already on the ground and can easily
be EQUIPPED with electrical machinery
and thus be made to supply the now
growing demand Tor the country north,
east and west, for which this will be
the natural shipping and trading point.
We especially extend TO the citizens
OF Grand Scene and vicinity an inyi'
tation to join with US in securing the
church and school, whose value 10
the community life cannot be over
estimated. We need the church, we
need the school, we need and want
your heartiest cooperation ard help in
bringing about these great factors in
civilization and progress. Let's make
this our motto: We'll rally, well
never despair, while there's light in
the sunshine and breath in the air. "
A co-worker,
GEO. r. RENSHAW.

New Years Day at the Mansion.

New Years day was spent delight
fully at the mansion by hundreds Of
the personal and political friends Of
Governor H4dley. Every tain ariv-
ing at the capital from noon on
Tuesday to the afternoon Of Wednes-
day brought numbers of well known
citizens from distant parts Of the
state and from the three large
cities. At D o'clock the mansion was
thrown open to the public and the
spacious rooms were soon filed with
men and women who represent the
wealth, the intelligence, the proles'
sional and the business interests Of the
state. Judge w. W. Graves Of the
supreme court and sel eral other dis.
tinguished democrats honored the oc-
casion with their presence, but the
governor elect and other democratic
state officials were conspicuous by their
absence. At the close Of the recep-
ton in the afternoon a splendid life
size portrait of Governor HadleY,
painted by Carl Waldeck Of St. Louis,
was unveiled by Col. Houts OF St.
Louis, chirman OF a committee OF ad-
miring friends composed OF Adjutant
General Rumbold, Louis Nolte, (formel
sheriff Of St. Louis), and Moses
Schoenberg, the merchant prince o
that city. The splendid painting wa'
unveiled and presented to the State o
Missouri, 10 be hung on the walls o
the mansion with portraits Of other dis
tinguished men who have served a
chief executives. After the well-timeC
address OF Col. Houts, Governor Hadle,
made a most pleasing talk and va
rapturously applauded, The occasion
was significant Of the deep and tru
affection the governor has generated il
the hearts Of true men and women.

Governor Hadley and State Treasurer
Cowgirl wanted the commissioners Of
the permanent seat Of government and
the democratic legislative committee
to use the brick and stone in the cid
capitol in the construction Of a sub
stantial and permanent building on the
capitol grounds Tor temporary use Of
the legislature and the state officials
and for the permlnsnt use Of the mill
tary arm OF the government after the
new capitol shall have been completed.
rne other commissioners and the leg
islMlve committeeman declined to do
such a wise thing but caused TO be
erected a temporary structure Of wood,
as combustible as box Of matches, at a
cost Of over $4,000, in addition to
which they are spending about SIS, ,00G
for furniture and carpets that will have
to be cast aside within FIVE years or
less. And the entire building they
have erected will not yield a salvage
OF $4,000 when it must be removed
from the capitol grounds. That's the
democratic idea Of a business ad-
minisiration.

Jefferson City Letter.

Jefferson City, January 6.-The ex-
traordinary political situation that de-
veloped last summer and fall has thrown
the proud old commonwealth Of Mis-
souri, into the hands Of the democrats
again and the changes taking place at
the state capitol this week and next
will be followed with intense interest.
This is the last week Of the republican,
state administration that has practically
redeemed Missouri from bourbonism
aud placed her among the more pro-
gresSive and advancing states OF the
union, The political atmosphere Of
the state has been greatly improved
and good public service has become
the demand o! the people instead Of
Subservlent party service. The slow
going and ultra conservative policy OF
the state for forty years has given way,
since 1908, TO an aggressive policy in
voiving Improvement in the conduct
of the business Of the state, the devel'
opment Of latent mineral, agricultural
and horticultural resources, the i'm
provement Of cities and towns and Of
water courses. The capital city has

Next Monday a democratic regime
will begin with the Inauguration Of

message Of the new democratic gov
ernor will advocate a number Of pol
icies and measures made popular by
his republican predecessor, and that
the democrats will try to follow a pro-
gressive policy. They must do that or
fall into condemnation quickly, 1t
remains to be seen whether democratic
leaders can be progressive. The
chances are against them.
