Again the Hangman

Gov. Gardner late Tuesday signed
the capitel.punishment law passed
earlier in the day by the House of
the Missouri Legislature. The law
becomes effective October 6, or 80
days from date.
Gardner also approved the bill ap-
propriating $4,000 to defray the
expenses of the special session Of
the Legislature, which was called
primarily to ratify the woman suffr-
age amendment to the Federal Con-
stitution.
AS finally enacted. the capital.
punishment law restores the death
penalty by hanging in Missouri
Capital punishment was abolished
by the Legislature in 1917.

The frequency with which petty
thefts and burglars have been CON-
mitted in Monroe City the past few
weeks has caused many citizens to
ask Hunter Anderson to bring his
famous bloodhounds back to Mon
roe for short time at least. These
dogs are now in Iowa where they
have been for some time. In talk
with Mr.. Anderson he told the Dem
ocrat man that it cost abou: dol
lar a day to feed his dogs and that
the business in this section had not
paid him to keep them here. Now
would it not be a good idea for the
city or merchants to make SoDe
kind of arrangements with Mr.. An,
derson to keep these dogs at homes
1t could probably be arranged fol
less money than a night watch
could be hired and would be more

Doesn't Want Paper

The Democrat received a notice
from the postmaster at Stoutsville

per addressed to A. G. Dooley has
been refused and remains dead in

has a perfect right to discontinue
his subscription at his pleasure, and
that seems to be what he has done.

it will doubtless take but a moment

Visitin e in California

We clip the following from the
Daily Times-Advocate of Escondido
California. Mr.. and Mrs. Will Glib
bons and four children arrived Sat
urday for a visit of a couple of days
with Mrs. Eta Thiehoff and Mr.
and Mrs. C. D. Young and son. The
Gibbons family live in Monroe City
Mo-, but have been making an ex
tended visit with Mr.. Gibbons sister
at Corona. Mr. Gibbons is an ex
tensive STOCK raiser in Missouri
The Gibbons and Thiehoff families
have been friends through three
generations and this will give a
slight idea of the joy of the present
visit.

Petty Thievins

During the past several weeks
there has been quite lot of petty
thievine in Monroe City. A num-
Der of business houses have been
entered lately and small sums of
money taken. In some instances
attempts have been made to force
the safe, which was accomplished
at the Office of the Farmers Eleva-
tor Co., where a small amount of
money vas secured. Money seems
q be the only thing desired-goOds
and checks being undisturbed. Il
is generally believed the thefts are
being committed by home talent OF
possibly by an outside party assist
ed by home talent who know the
lay of the ground. Preparations
have been made to apprehend the

Our Advice Gratis

While our advice has not been
asked, and IN all probability will
not be taken seriously, we are going
to suggest to the Honorable County
Court OF Monroe County q solution
to what seems to have been, to
them, a troublesome question, and
to the county costly question. ln
the future give this printing to the
papers of the county in rotation
one at a time, until all have been
patronized. This is the only safe
and sane way to handle the county
printing and the only way in which
hard feelings can be avoided. Nc
paper can object to such an arrane
ment. We offer this Solution in al
sincerity and believe it worthy E
trial.

Wednesday of this week he remind
ed US that on that date, fifty one
years ago, OF July 9. 1868, ne had
engaged in the drug business in
Monroe City. He remSned in the
business constantly until December
9. 1917, when he retired from active

During that time Mr.. Wood made
many warm personal friends and
also built up a fine reputation for
the Wood Drug Store which it still
maintains under the efficient
management of his nephew, L. M

The Bond Question

Elsewhere in this issue of the
Democrat will be found the legal
notice for the special election to be
held on Saturday August 2, for the
purpose of voting on the proposition
to bond the county in the sum of
one million dollars for good roads
purposes. There arises question
that voters of this end of the coun-
ty must settle before election day,
and the sooner an agreement is
reached the better. Monroe Special
Road Distr;et recently voted bonds
in the a Junt of $4,000 for their
part of road between Monroe City
and Paris this same Foad being
now a part of the chain of roads as
outlined in the county system. AS
the situation now stands if the
county bond proposition carries the
people of the Monroe Special Dis
trict will be forced to pay double
taxation. However, everybody
wants good roads and the question
will no doubt be satisfactorily ar
ranged in some manner.

that try to camoufage their iawiess-

There is no minimizing the worth
of the achievements in our national
affairs, and those of the world; but
the human mind cannot forever
dwell upon the tragedies that cost
ten million lives in battle, thirty
million injured, and thousands made
blind or insane-and others made
poor. and some rich.

But while the railroads are down in
low speed, the automobile business
is on high. and the steel men are
finding a pretty good output for
their goods in that direction. Even
house building is on the gain, and
unemployment is not half as serious
