 Senate Bin No. 4l and House Bin No 55 both relating to the drawing and challenging ot jurors in the Dis triet Courts were deferred until Mon day as some Of the Senators wished expert advice as to the legality of the measures before voting.
 1atttttN AftNA aNNs ~ az NNAN NNNAAoANAllAAAL of the commission on uniform laws for the Territory was also deferred until Monday. The abolition is not favored. but the argument is put forward that the Territory cannot stand the addi- tional expense entafed by the upkeep of the Commission at the present time
 Senator Hubbard withdrew Senate Joint Memorial No. n. relating to the of the chugach forest rather than accept Senator Sulzer's amendment to include the reserve in the memorial Sen ator Hubbard stated as his reason that the Chugach reserve is in @ "pe. culiar position" at the present time, and Senator Sulzer retorted that the position of the Tongass reserve was just as peculiar" declaring that 1t furnished money for the use of the other three divisions.

NSentIment : overwrounht.


 | Joseph B. Maccabe, who was one of the delegates from this country at last years meeting Of the International Athletic Federation at Lyons France, says the federation's adoption of the rule against Marathon contestants having either attendants or refresh. ment during the race was prompted entirely by sentiment.
 That being the case. particularly when the story of the first Marathon run is recalled. it would seem that the Amateur Athletic Union, com mendable as is it's desire to have its rules conform with those of the inter- national body might yield point and permit the unions old conditions re- garding Marathon running to remain in force. The original Marathon run ner was Pheidippides, an Athenian who, some 800 years before Christ. ran from Marathon to Athens, after the great battle of the Marathon Hills to announce in the market place the vic tory for Athens over the Persians.
 Then Pheidippides dropped dead from exhaustion. He had neither at tendant nor refreshments en route. Certainly no one wishes to see a repe- tition of the Pheidippides incident in present day Marathon running
 Pheidippides will always be honor ed for his performance. but it is play ing the sentiment game altogether too strongly to impose upon present-day Pheidippides conditions that in all probability, resulted in the death Of that noble Athenian.

Why Not Monroe City?

Various towns thruout Missouri
and surrounding states have inau
gurated what the business men
term their Dollar Day." the feature
of which is that on ne certain day
in each month, each merchant in
the town offers for sale for one dol
lar some one article that usually
sells for SIPS or more.
Shelbina has now taken up the
idea and we believe it would be a
good drawing card for Monroe City
merchants. And in so doing it
will not be patternine after Shelbina
or any other special town, this
feature having been inaugurated
two or three years ago in the cities
and one that has proved profitable
alike to merchant and customer.
Commenting on the Dollar Day."
the Clinton Democrat adds:
This is a trade day feature which
has proved quite popular in the
east where after a great deal of
preliminary advertising every mer-
chant will on a certain day sell one
or more articles for a dollar which
at regular price would retail for a
great deal more than that. The cut
prices do not apply to other lines
of merchandise, but each merchant
in his preliminary advertising picks
out certain things which he will
sell for one dollar"

In the Missouri section of the az
ricultural display at Frisco is a
map which declares: Missouri is
neither North nor South. nor East
nor West, but part of each and
each the best" This has the sound
of bombast until you get down to
the facts and analyze it. There is
no spot in the world that excels
northern Missouri, western Missouri
is equal to any section of the coun-
try to westland. the East is as good
as anything eastward. and the
South, especially that part adapted
to agriculture and fruit growing
cannot be excelled south of Mason
and Dixon's line. This being the
truth, the San Francisco inscription
is merely statement of facts, and
contains no bombast.

If Bryan did the right thing then
the President must be wrong, a

then Mr. Bryan must be wrong-a
thing not unusual for him. Bryan

against the grain of every patriotic
American citizen. We are all in

Mayor Reverts to Days of Youth.
Many years ago when shoes and
stockings were not as much of a
necessity as today you could notice
the small boy and girl just fairly
aching for the first warm days of
spring so as to turn their toes out
to grass. In those days Mayor
Scott. no doubt at that time more
familiarity called "Scotty," was
classed in the barefoot procession
but as the years have come and
gone he has forsook those boyhood
charms. Last Friday morn ing he
made trip to the water works dam
and being compelled to wade a
small stream he pulled off socks
and shoes. gave one shoe q sling
to the opposite bank-it missed
and went kerplunk in the stream

much fun going barefooted' and
walking through cinders along the
railroad track as IN days gone by.
Be ready to run when you ask him
though, remembering Safety first.
