GOVERNOR SAYS HE WILL
BE THERE AT THE FINISH

Atlanta, June 16.-Governor N.
+. Harris has once more made
emphatic denial of the report
which had again gained circula-
ton that he would retire from the
governors race.
"You may say for me-" said the
governor, that I am still in the
race and that | am running Just
as fast as my wind will allow, and
that | am long way from windcd
yet"
The source from which some OF
these reports are gaining circula-
ton seems to be clear to the gov
ernor, and he intimated that, with
the continuation of such reports,
he would pay his respects to the
circulator in the near future.
A we'll known politician, who
for personal reasons asked that
his name be not used, declared his
honest conviction, after trips over
the state, that Governor Harris
will be reelected. This politician
IS supporting another candidate.

MAN CANNOT CARRY
WHISKY FOR FRIENDS

Savannah, Ga, June 14.-That
d man bearing whisky for his
friends is immune from the two
quart limit just as is an express
company or other common carrier
was the argument of attorney Z.
III. Abrahams in the city court de
tending Sam Smoker, Of Dorches-
Ter, charged with violating the
prohibition law. The argument
was based on the assumption that
the whisky was not procured lille
gaIy The attorney contended
thar Nilnoser, a merchant, was
merely bringing back to six Dor
chester friends twenty-three pints
Of whisky from Savannah. Ths
jury found Nilnoker guilty Of
having liquor on hand illegally
and Judge John Rourke fined hin
fifty dollars and sentenced him tc
serve three months.

pleasure and labor mixed, which
fits them for more useful lives
and better citizens than if they
had spent a large percent of their
early days on the streets of town
and small cities.
The idea that men need a large
farm to make a good home is a
very false theory, the larger the
farm above that required for the
support of the family the greater
will be the care and the more
steady hard labor will be re.
quired to run said farm in proper
shape. A man might better have
one 80 and have good buildings
and work his land we'll with his
own family and be clear from
debt than have 100 acres and poor
buildings and keep an extra team
and a hired man to help do the
work, and be in debt on the farm.
And again l say good stock well
fed is cheaper than poor stock
poorly fed; some poor men buy
poor horses because they think
they can't afford any better, but
that is a false idea, a man that
will use a worthless team is in a
good way to be always poor.-A.

Farm, Garden and Home

Home in it's true sense is the
greatest possession man can at
tain in this world or any ether.
If the Hone over there is worth
than anything man can attain,
then we believe that a good home
here is the next highest attain.
ment for man, and if this is true,
the way to attain the best home
both here and hereafter chould
be mans chief aim, and we be-
Iieve that the family that is work,
ing tremendously together for
this is the happiest family here
and surely will be hereafter.
Money seems to be that for which
most men are working at the
present time, but money is per-
fectly valueless only so much as
can be used for the comfort of
the familyin making a good home
Therefore we believe there is no
way to make a good comfortable
home for the family of but mod.
crate means as on the farm and
in the garden.
The farm, garden and home
seem to be so linked together
that there is no separating them.
The people of Missouri could be
the happiest people on this earth
if they were just working for a
good homeand for all the people.
But a large percent seem to be
just simply working for the de.
ceitful Mighty Dollar, and some
of them seem to think they won't
get all they want unless they rob
some one else, and l am sorry to
say that some of that kind are
those that have already more
than they can ever use, while
others of sufficient means for a
good home are just making slaves
of all around them to raise more
cattle aud hogs, to pay for more
land to make them more deprav.
ed slaves both in this world and
the next. Then there is the class
we always have with US, that are
too lazy to work and are trying
to get money from some poor
man (of course legally that they,
the lazy men, may live at their
