it sometimes robs the home library

The Governor told an intimate
friend In Salmon the other day that
he by no means had sought again the
nomination for the Office he now fills.
On the contrary he would gladly
stand from nder in favor Of another
candidate if one could be found will
ing to bear the burden. More than
that, he would help along the election
of any man who would be wiling to
assume the burdens of the Office and
calculated to discharge its duties as a
trust of all the people regardless OF
selfish personal interests. He said he
would stump the state for such can
didate and give a thousand dollars
besides toward his legitimate cam.
paign expenses.

RICH HILL SHELTERS
CLOSED
Managers Of the Plant Refuse to
Recognize the Union.

After being in operation for
a little more than 60 days, the
Rich Hill zinc smelter works were
closed down Thursday morning
for an indefinite period, the en-
ployees not reporting for work at
the usual time says the Rich Hill
Review. Some 35 to 40 men are
affected by the shutting down of
the plant. W. H. Robertson,
president of the company, said
the company had refused to sign
the union contract lately present
cd by the men, which indicates the
cause. He further stated that the
company was paying the union
scale to furnace men, but refused
however, the demand to unionize
the plant, claiming the right to
run their own business. The COM
pany also assert that inexperi-
enced men have been given en-
-ployment at the smelter which has
proven unsatisfactory.
The closing down of the plant
created surprise in business cir
cles a. the business men here put
forth extra effort By raising .
fund Of about two thousand dol
lars to encourage the mleter to
locste here BY buying the site and
expsnse Of grading the switch
trek leading to the plant.

Dairying is fast coming in rank
with the other great wealth-pro-

Every year the COW, the money
maker and the money-saver of the

growth are the number of cream
cans at the railroad depots and
the high prices that the dairy cat
tie are commanding.
But the surest sign of this de-
velopment will be the big dairy
exhibit at the Missouri State Fair

special awards for all classes and
the attractive premiums insures
extensive exhibits of all breeds.
Not only will the exhibitors

money, but they will also come in
