A Veteran Editor

Capt. Albert o. Allen, editor of the
New Madrid Record, passed the 74th
mile stone of his eventful life jour
ney on December 18th. We congrat-
ulate the Captain, and trust His life
road stretches fer along into the years
to come, and that all rough places
have been passed and only smooth
iourneying awaits him. Captain AL
len was born and reared in Madison
county, and his life has been an ac-
tive and useful one. AS youth he
cast his destinies with the Southern
States in the Civil war, and served
with distinction in the First Regi-
ment of the old First Missouri Bri-
gade DIETER known as CocksilIs Bri-
gade, although General Cockrell was
preceded as brigade commander by
General Little, who was killed at the
battle of Iuka, General Martin Green,
who was killed during the siege of
Vicksburg, and General Brown, who
died shortly afterward from illness
contracted during the siege).
After the close of the war Captain
Allen and Charles e. Barroll, another
SOluleF Oh LflS Oiu 4 tIot hts5Vuii AsSS-
iment, along in the latter part of the
sixties, started the publication of the
New Madrid Record, of which Cap
tain Allen is now, and has been con-
tinuously one Of the editors and own
ers, though he has been in public SER
vice much of the time during the in
tervening years. For a number OF
years he was Chief Clerk of the State
Auditors Office, under both Auditors
Holladay and Seibert, and was him
self elected Auditor in 1900, serving
until the expiration of his term in
January, 1905. He was one of the
most methodieal and efficient clerks
and Auditors that office ever had.
Since the close Of his term of office
" has giver all his time to editing the
eaaord. in which he is assisted by
r. son, and is making the same sue
sss with It that he has made with
7erything to which he has given in
crested attention. The writer has
nown Albert o, Allen many years
and has felt fortunate in counting him
among his friends. Many happy re-
turns of the day, Albert.

town during the Legislative session

with more or ess success in the past
for removing the Capitol elsewhere.

Going After the
Barrel Houses

On last Saturday injunction pro-
ceedings were commenced against the
"barrel houses, located in Ste. Cen
evieve county, one conducted by Har-
ry Highley and Joe Byington, locat-
ed near Pennington Junction, and the
other operated by A. M. jackson, and
located about four miles east of Des-
loge.
Affidavits were filed alleging that
both places are being conducted in
such a way as to constitute nui-
sance to the morals of the community
in which they are located; that men
and boys and women are seen at both
places in drunken condition. in
dulging in loud cursing and swearing
and indecent language; also that the
highways leading to the places have
become dangerous roads on which to
travel, and the farmers wives are
afraid to travel the same; also that
Intoxicating liquors are being solo
there by the drink without license
and on Sunday and to minors. 4, ~
The petitioners are represented BY
w. A. Gardner, Pipkin & Story anf
Henry Davis, and same will be hearc
next Saturday by Judge Huck at Ste
Genevieve.

Hunters Home
With Trophies

Sheriff Williams, Jake Day, Mode
Coffman, Francis Benham and the
other hunters who went to Reynolds
county for a weeks hunting and out
ing, got back home last Saturday.
They had the time Of their lives, if
one may judge by the enthusiasm
with which they dilate on their ex-
ploits. Along with other game of di-
vers sort that they bagged and with
which they regaled their whetted APP
petites in camp, they say they killed
two deer, and they brought Awo sad
dies of venison home with them as
proof of their prowess as deer hunt
ers.
Now when it comes to fish stories,
people naturally expect little stretch
ing of the net, little eXaggerating of
the size of piscatorial prizes, by our
amateur Isaak Waltons, and there are
doubling Thomases among us who at
| tribute the same weakness to modern
Nimrods who HE themselves to the
forest to hunt bear, wolves, deer and
such like ferocious game. To allay
any doubt as to their prowess in the
deer line our local huntsmen exhibited
the proof of their story--two saddles
of venison, ergo, they killed two deer,
as they say.
But this did not allay the too ready
suspicious of some who are not dis
posed to give the hunters full Gre
dit for all they claim, They noted the
! fact that the story mentioned one
| good sized buck or doe and another
of lighter weight, also that the two
Saddles" were rights and lefts, and
that when weighed on the scales each
was approximately of the same
weight. They reasoned from this that
the two Saddles" were more likely to
have come from the same deer, rath-
er than one each from two separate
animals. Thus it is that we always
/ have among us people who are contin-
ually trying to stake the joy out OF
\ life" ~
Now. we do not line up with these
I doubling Thomases-we are suscep-
tible enough to believe the two-deer
story-and even if it were only one,
that is doing pretty well for a party
of hunters in this twentieth century
when deer are no longer driven with
hunger up to our cabin doors when
the ground is crusted deep with snow.
But one deer, or two, there is no
doubt that our hunters, or one of them,
had a good view of two. They brought
the evidence of one at least home,
and the evidence of the other is in the
woful story of Mode Coffman. Now
Mode is an old seasoned hunter, and
we wouldn't have thought it of him;
, but it is said he caught sight of a
beautiful antlered specimen, head and
tail up, making bee line for his
stand. Up went Modes gun, but as
his eye looked over the sight of his
J gun into the startled gaze of the
! proud monarch of the forest, he was
taken with fit of buck-ague that so
unnerved him that he couldn't remem-
ber afterwards whether he fired into
the air or into the ground, but that
was the last seen of that deer.
They had a good time anyway, and
no gloom bug is going to take the
| Joy of it out of their lives.

No Hope in
Sight for Peace

The peace negotiation proposal
made by Germany and her allied pow
ers has practically been rejected by
all the Entente Allies--France, Eng
land, Russia and Italy. Russia and
France were the first to voice their
attitude, and last Tuesday, in the
English House of Lords, Premier
Lloyd-George said that it was felt
that they should know before enter
ing on negotiations that Germany
was prepared to accede to the only
terms wherein it is possible for peace
to be obtained and maintained. He
declared that there could be no basis
for peace negotiations that did not
include full reparation on the part of
Germany and Austria of all outrages
on land and sea, and complete guar
! antee against Prussian militarism
disturbing the peace of Europe in the
future. The Premier announced that
the formal reply of the Allies to
Germany's proposal would be given
in few days.
Germany's proposal suggested no
terms, and Lloyd-George said that to
enter into proposals of which they
had no knowledge would be to put
their heads into a moose with the
ropes in the hands Of Germany. The
Allies also resent the spirit in which
the German proposal was made
| that OF victor u the vahtuished-
holding that whatever advantages
either side has gained is in favor Of
the Allies, and that ultimate victory
will rest with them. France, It seems
has her heart on the restoration 70 her
| If Alsace and Lorraine; Russia has
llong coveted Constantinople, which the
Allies have promised her in the event
of final victory; Italy has her tole tt
claim of Austria, and England, on the
4 surface, demands complete restora-
ton and reparation for Belgium, ant
doubtless has her eyes on good dea
more of which she has not taken tht
4 world into her confidence. From al
which it may be seen that there is lit
tie hope in sight for peace negotia
tions at this time. Evidently, how
ever, both sides are pretty sick of tht
war, and the unexpected might pos
sibly happen.

The Christmas
Entertainment
and CarOling

The municipal Christmas Tree is
now in place on the Court House
grounds, the entertainment will take
place at the Monarch Theatre to-mor-
row Saturday. evening at 6:45
O'Clock, and the Bands of Carol Sing
ers will start out Sunday night af-
ter the services at the several church
es.
This is to be something different
from the municipal Christmas cele-
brations heretofore given. The tree
in the Court House yard will be dec
grated and lighted up in all its
Christmas glory, but there will not
be any gifts on it to be distributed.
Instead of the usual gifts of can
dies and toys which the Christmas
tree is supposed to bear, the women's
clubs of the town have arranged an
other gift that will prove just as en-
joyable. They have arranged splen-
did program for an entertainment to
be given at GAS o'clock tomorrow
Saturday evening at the Monarch
Theatre, that will be delight tc
children and old folks alike. Every
thing will be on the Christmas or.
der.
The program will consist, in part
of the following:
The grand old hymn, "Joy to the
World"
"True Meaning of Christmas" ad
dress by j. Clyde Akers.
Reading of Vandyke's "The FRS
Christmas Tree" by Mrs. F. S

test the delight of the sweet spirit O
giving and to realize the truth of th'
} blessed Christ's words, "It Is NOR
blessed to give than toAreeeive." Short
ly after nine o'clock four Bands o

BUSINESS GAMBLING SPIRIT

The gambling spirit in business
transactions was clearly manifested
in Chicago last Friday in wheat trad
ing. On receipt Of the news that
Premier Lloyd George, in the English
House of Commons, supported the po-
sition of Russia and France in prac-
tically rejecting Germany's peace pro-
p9sal. the price &c wheat snat UP Z
cents bushel; and later in the day re-
ports that yd-George had left an
apenirg for Germany to male a def
inite statement of terms, the wheat
bidding dropped 6 1-8 cents. Ii that

Regulation Needed
of Suburban Lines

A jefferson telegram of the goth
says that the State Public Service
Commission had been asked to adopt
general order fixing suburban street
ear rates on a basis of 2 cents per
mile. The proposition was submit
ted by the Kansas City Railway Com
pany, and it is expected to open a
long fight.
Whether, if this rate were adopted
by the Public Service Commission, it
would affect lines like the st. Fran
co.'s County Railway (electric) line,
we don't know, but there is a good deal
of complaint about the rate charged
by this road, which is fraction less
than 4 cents a mile between Farm
ington and Flat River, and fully A
cents mile between Pennington and
DeLassus. When Commissioner Bean,
Of the Public Service Commission,
was here recently hearing complaints,
the management of the st. Francois
County Railway, which is really an
arm Of the M. r. g. B. 7. Railroad,
and is practically owned and its
schedules fixed by the latter COM
pany, claimed that the. road was not
actually paying expenses. With the
crowded condition Of the cars on their
morning and evening runs, and q
generous passenger patronage on all
cars, the people can't understand
why it doesn't pay handsomely. The
people feel like they are paying toe
dearly for local transportation.
However, as a fight from another
quarter has been begun before the
Commission, for a lower rate on SUI
burban cars, and that, too, by city
railway company, the result will be
awaited with considerable interest.

The Real Stuff


DR.. John B. Graves received let
ter from Russell Doss the first of tbs
week, which brought additional as
surances of the apparently unusual
wealth of the mining property which
is owned by DIR. Graves, B. Fl. Mar
bury, j. G. Watson and Taylor Smith,
located in The Miami, Okla, lead and
zinc fieldsse]ssi
Russell Doss has for the past few
months been located in that field, is
hustler, and by this time he no doubt
has a fairly accurate estimate Of the
value of most of the mining proper
ties In that entire field. In this let
ter to DIR. Graves he said that he had
visited the Ritz mine, (which is the
name of the mine owned by the above
named Pennington gentlemen) on
both last Thursday and Friday; that
he found the mill running at full blast
and carrying up steady stream OF
the "yellow stuff; he also pronounceA
the mill and the whole equipment as
being one of the very best in that en-
tire mining district. He also stated
that the Ritz mine is recognized aS
one of the very best in that entire
| field.
This letter but substantiates much
other information that has reached
Pennington in regard to the almost
unexampled resources of this mining
property. The Times again most sim
kcerely congratulates these gentlemen,
into whose spacious pockets great
wealth will perhaps soon be pouring
from their Miami mineral investments.
There are none other whom we would
rather see treated to golden mum
dation than the above named gentle
men. If you should hear them appar-
emily building air castles, do not ehide
them; when you wake up, they may
prove to be real.
