Old Slave Statistics.

In a recent issue of the Kansas
City Star there is an interesting ar
ticle taken from some old papers
found at Mexico, this state, giving
an enumeration of the slaves held
in a few of the old counties in the
year 1860 Randolph county was
waited on by 2,619 slaves, Audrain
by 1856, Boone had 5,032. Galloway
1928, Monroe 1921 and Pike 4,O55.
From old papers in our possess
sion printed twelve years earlier in
1S4S, we find the same counties
had slaves as follows: Randolph
zoos, Audrain 366, Boone 3,572,
Galloway 1925, Monroe 1926, Pike
1880 and Howard 4201 AS an
indication of what these slaves were
worth. an old assessment abstract
made by A. j. Herndon, clerk of
Howard, in 1851, shows 5,45S slaves
appraised at $1,466000. on which a
total tax of S5.759 80 was paid. one
half to the state and one-half to the
county. On our present basis of
one third valuation, these negroes
were worth about $1,000 per head,
but this seems a trifle high. 1t is
interesting 10 note from this old
blank that all the land in Howard
county was the same year listed at
less than its slaves, viz: 81 1897.
The total number of slaves in all
the counties in 1S4S was 76,757.
and the total number of white peo-
pie was 5l0,435.
Comparing this with the last cen
suS of the state we find that the ne
groes in Missouri today are 157,452.
Under freedom it has required fifty
three years for them to double their
numbers, while in slavery the total
population Of the United States
doubled in thirty years-one Gener-

Game Inspector Talks On the New
Game Law.

Same inspector lalkS On the view
Game Law.
John B. Thompson of Doniphan.
Mo-, inspector of the federal game
department, was in Hannibal today
and registered at the Mark Twain
hotel. Mr.. Thompson's territory is
quite large, embracing Nebraska,
Iowa, Illinois, Arkansas, Kansas and
Missouri.
{ In a conversation with Courier
Post reporter, Mr.. Thompson spoke
relative to the federal law which
! prohibits the shooting of migratory
birds on inland waters from Janua-
ry 1 to September l. Mr.. Thomp-
son said that since the law went in
to effect there has been 125 persons
convicted for violation of this acti
A direct arrest does not necessarily
have to be made. The federal au-
thorities have three years in which
to file charges against violators of
this law.
Mr. Thompson is a strong advo-
cate of this law, believing that in
time those who now are opposing it
will see the value of the law.
This law is really necessity as
it provides breeding places for the
ducks during the spring, he said. In
he north and in Canada the breed
ing places for ducks are being used
or agricultural purposes and there
fore it is up to the United States to
provide and maintain such places
FOR the migratory birds.

Producer and Consumer.

Postmaster Colin M. Selph, of
Saint Louis. No. has received in
structions from POstmaster-General
Burleson to prepare and organize
his office so as to be an intermedi-
airy between the produce farmer,
dairyman and poultryman, and the
consumer living in Saint Louis.
Lists will be printed containing
the names Of all farmers in Mis-
souri,, Iowa, Arkansasand Oklahoma
who wish to ship eggs, butter aud
general produce 10 consumers in
Saint Louis via parcel post service.
These lists will be distributed by
carriers to patrons of the Saint
Louis Post Office or supplied to con-
sumers in Saint Louis on applica-
ton. Postmaster Selph has sent
out a request to farmers, dairymen
and poultrymen of Missouri, Illinois,
Iowa, Arkansas and Oklahoma to
send in their names and addresses
and the kind OF produce handled,
also whether they handle butter,
eggs, general produce, fruits, etc
Postmaster.G General Burleson is very
much interested in this new scheme
to bring the producer and consumer
together by direct sale and delivery
through parcel post and has in
structed Postmaster Selph to use
every possible means to obtain the
information from the farmers in
relation to what they grow and pro-
duce and to give the plan the wild
est publicity.
Those who desire to have their
names included in the produce lists
should send same to Postmaster
Selph at once. He will publish not
later than the sixth of April, a Bull
letin for distribution and thereafter
will publish same semi-moD'hly.
containing full information.
Consumers in Saint Louis who
desire lists should make application
now.

Sunlight.

Sunlight is one of the best and
cheapest disinfectants at our diepos-
al, and we should take advantage
of this fact at every opportunity.
In the construction of barns or shell
tiers of any kind for animals. ample
provision should be made for the
admission of sunlight Southern
exposure is desirable, that is hav-
ing the majority of the windows
facing the south. The warmth
thus provided in cold weather is de-
sirable. and much Of the excessive
heat in summer cali be avoided by
providing suitable curtains OF
screens. Most disease germs arg
easily killed by direct sunlight, as
has been repeatedly shown by ex-
periments. - LaBelle Star.

Senator Borah, a Republican rep
resenting Idaho in the United States
Senate, says that the constitutional
amendment giving suffrage to the
negro was a mistake and that until
II is repealed woman suffrage by an
amendment to the federal conStitu-
ton is impossible, because such
amendment would never be ratified
by the necessary three-fourths-36
of the states. The Southern
states will never vote to give sutf-
rage to two million negro women.
Senator Borah favors equal suffrage,
but advises the women they are
wasting their time working for it by
the federal constitutional amend
ment route, unless and until the
amendment giving the vote to the
negro is repealed, 1t looks very
much as if Borah is right Shelbi-

Love-.

Love is the flower of the soul.
1t is the hottest and sweetest of
the heart forces which prompt our
actions. 1t is more precious to
most men and women than the
wealth in the world, because price
less; it is one of the joys of Heaven.
Though without price love is a
gift. and can bear no relation to
selfshness. Love is the sweetest
purest and yet the strongest of the
human influences. 1t will endure
suffering, withstand trials and over
come temptations. Love lifts us
out of our sordid selves, and then,
only then, we realize that the out
going of love and helpfulness is but
the incoming of "a peace which
passeth understanding" a joy which
fills the fountains of the heart. Elk

What Intervention Would Mean.

If Intervention were undertaken
by us it would be with the announc-
of unselfish motives. Our Govern.
ment would proclaim to the world
its purpose to protect the Mexican
people from themselves; to help
them establish conditions of peace,
order, and justice; to protect the
lives and property alike of Mexicans
and foreigners, and to gain neither
territorial advantage nor political
ascendancy for itself. There would
be all sorts of renunciations in ad-
vance. Congress, by joint resolu-
ton, would pledge the honor Of the
United States to a merely Temporal
ry occupation, and to a full with
drawal as soon as order had been
restored. We should have won in
the end, and established apparent
peace; but we should soon have
withdrawn and Mexico would still
have its own future to work out.
Meanwhile, we should have sent
several hundred thousandsssof our
young men into Mexico, with the
sacrifice of many lives with the
public expenditure of from five hun
dred millions to a thousand millions
of dollars, and private economic
sacrifice and lnss to far greater
extent. 1t is true, as Senator Shep-
paTd admits, that the desperate
conditions in Mexico have resulted
in the unfortunate loss of the lives
of Americans and other foreigners
and in the ennihilation of property
{ interests to large amount. But a
war of interventions would destroy
all that remains of foreign property
in Mexico before peace could be es-
tablished, besides the incomparably
greater economic sacrifices involved
in the expense of our undertaking.
