MINISTER TO HAITI HERE
One of FarmingtOn's Honored Citizens
Home on Leave of Absence From. .
Post of Duty.

Pennington Is proud to number
Hon. Melbourne K. Smith as one Of
her citizens. On last Saturday the
distinguished gentlemen arrived IN
his home town on a vacation from
Haiti where he is filling the import
ant position OF Minister to that South
rrn Republic. Mr., Smith informed
the Times man that he viii be able
10 spend probably a. much as six
weeks here.
1t is the opinion Of Mr.. Smith that
at this time two Of the most rcspon-
siblc positions Of this government are
now held by two of the biggest men
that have filled those positions for a
long while-Prcsidcnt Wilson and
Secretary Bryan. He believes that
they will emerge from the Mexican
imbroglio with laurels for themselves,
and added prestige for this govern
ment.

days on the farm near Avon, Mo, but
since childhood, has spent greater
part Of his life in St. Francois County.

Won may term srlf-mada man. lie
worked his way through school, and
while doing so was employed for a
time on farm near Libcrtyyille; in
the plate rlas factory ut Crystal City
Missouri:ir the Missouri Car Shops al
St Louis, on The Street Railways Of
st. Louis, and in a rock quarry at north
Baden. ST. Louis and in the reduction
Lead Mill at Deslogc. Mo. While en-
ployed as mill man at Dcsloge the
wages received were $l.30 per day and
theN hours worked were twelve. \
short time before, working for the
Desloge Company and while working
on the Street Railways of st. Louis,
he had the distinction of carrying n
union card and also. standing on pick
ct as a union man in the street car
strike of St. Louis in the year Of 1899
He knowes full well the laboring
mans task, for he spent n part Of
his life as one. whether in mill, fac
tory, or profession, he has done his
whole duty and succeeded in each and
every position held, which is very
commendable Of any man seeking an
office of public trust. He is life long
Democrat, and loyal worker in his
party. His ancestors are all Of the old
Tennessee type Of Democracy, believ-
ing in equal rights to all and special
privileges to none.
For the last fourteen years he has
practiced his profession in st. Fran
co.'s county, with the exception of a
bout eighteen months, which time he
and family spent in the Pecos Valley
of New Mexico, on account Of the
health of the family. As physician
he has been always at his post, adj
ministering to the sick and afflicted,
subject to the bidding of everyone who
called him. No night too dark, no
north wind too cold to stay his visit to
the bed side. No sorrow too deep for
him to share with his people. He mer-
its the support of the Democratic
voters. At any rate he earnestly So
licists the Democratic vote at the
general primary, and promises a
faithful discharge of the trust in case
he is so fortunate as to be nominated
and elected to the office of Collector
of st. Francois County.

Hog Cholera.

There have been several outbreaks
of cholera simultaneously in widely
separated parts of the county in the
last few days.
If care is not taken these points will
act as center of contamination to
spread the disease in every direction.
The disease is germ disease and
is scattered by men, birds, animals
and other agencies as streams carry
ing the dirt containing the germ from
place to place.
One of the most certain methods of
carrying the disease is by pigeons.
They will go to feed lot where dis
case is present, get the dirt and germs
on their feet then visit another place
where hogs are being fed, and scat
ter the germs there. There are en-
tirely too many pigeons in this com
munity that are doing no one any
good but much harm and loss. 1t is
possible for them to carry many 9TH
er diseases as well as parasitic in
sects. They cause also very great
loss to every one by the amount of
