When Hardin Heights, the new adj
dition to the City of Mexico, between
the extreme south end of Clark Ave.
and Western Ave-, was sold Thursday
afternoon Mexico saw the greatest lot
bargain day in it's history. 1t result
ed in loss to the Byrd-Recker Realty
Co., of $4,000.
There were 81 lots sold. The lots
were 80 feet wide and 100 feet deep
The purchaser of lot, according to
the rules of the sale, must take the lot
next to it at the same price and then
had the privilege of taking third lot
at the same price.
The extreme high wind and the
threat of rain kept many away from
the sale. The lots all sold for far less
than they were worth and never be-
fore was it possible to purchase prop
erty located as this was at such low
figures. The Byrd-Recker Realty Co.,
fulfilled their contracts to the letter
regardless of their having suffered 6
severe monetary loss.

she stood dry and against Reed all the
way through.
Audrain was not without her share
of honors in the convention. Mrs.

ternate to the National convention in
San Francisco, and Gale Johnston was
elected secretary of the Ninth Con-
gressional caucus, and to represent

the Ninth Congressional District be-
ing represented in the Central Com
mittee meeting by Lee Meriweather,
of the Fifth District, who claimed that
he had been given the districts proxy.
Judge Shannon made quick work Of
finding out the why and wherefore"
of such procedure, and soon had the
interests of this district in the hands
of one of her own delegates.

REED OFFERED
PROXY BY A
ST. LOUIS MAN

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, April 22.-Phil
Dwyer, Twenty-second Ward com.
mitteeman and member of the Demo-
cratic Congressional Committee of the
Eleventh District, said last night
if Senator James A. Reed wants to
participate in the Democratic Ma
tional Convention at San Rarncisco
that he can have the proxy of Michael
j. Whalen, one of the two delegates
elected in the Eleventh District in st.
Louis.
Reed was defeated for delegate
from the Fifth Missouri District, en-
bracing Jackson County and Kansas
City, by the state convention when his
name was submitted with that of JOS
eph B. Shannon.
Dwyer said last night that Whalen
will "be quite satisfied" to give Sena-
tor Reed his proxy, provided Reed
wants to attend the convention and
take part in its deliberations.
Reeds friends say that precedent
for the use of proxies in the Demo-
cratic National Convention was set
when William J. Bryan participated in
the Baltimore convention on proxy.
They also cite other instances.
The anti-Reed Democratic polit-
icians contend that proxies are mad
missable and that the alternate for a
delegate takes his place when the
delegate is absent. If both delegate
and alternate is absent, a congress
sional district under this argument
would be denied representation if
proxies were turned down, the Reed
supporters retort.

Audrain County's four women del
egates to the Democratic State Con-
vention in Joplin have taken excep-
tion to the statement that all of this
county's delegation voted against
Chas. M. Hay as Of the big Four"
and declare that all of them cast votes
for that gentlmen. Upon investigation
it has been found that they are right;
they did, at least four persons did,
vote for Hay, but as far as the con-
vention was concerned their votes
availed nothing, because they were
cast in the Aurdain County caucus at
the time the eight delegates from here
wer determined for whom the four
teen votes should be cast as unit.
The caucus voting resulted in maj
ority votes for Gardner, Jenkins,
Wells and Kemper, and as conse-
quence the chairman of the Audrain
County delegation cast fourteen votes
for each of these men when the vote
was taken in the convention.
Some resolutions, which it is
thought would be interesting to people
of this community, were passed in the
caucus of the Ninth Congressional
District in Joplin, and it was the Led
gers intention to print at least the
substance of some of these, but as yet
it has been impossible to get copies Of
them from the secretary of the eau
Gus.
The question of recognition of the
Republic of Ireland did not come
before the convention last week, and
the Irish question was not injected
into the convention, except indirectly
through the efforts of Senator Casey
of Kansas City to prevent Endorsement
Of the League of Nations
The liquor question was settled in
the resolutions committee, the COM
mittee reporting merely in favor of
law enforcement. Priest fought for
two hours for a resolution for amend
ments to the Volstead law, and de-
clared an intention of submitting a
minority report to the convention, but
he didn't do it.
The State Democratic convention in
Joplin following the endorsement Of
the administration of President Wood
row Wilson and the League of Nations
elected as delegates at-large to the
National Democratic convention in
San Francisco Gov. F. D. Gardner,
Judge w. w. Graves, J. S. Earring
ton and the Rev. B. A. jenkins.
The defeat of Chas. NJ. Hay, State
dry leader, for delegate-at-large came
as a surprise to the convention. He
was beaten by the St. Louis and Kan
sas City delegations voting solidly for
p harrington.
The jackson county delegation did
not join in vote when the dry forces
won their initial victory by passing
a resolution congratulating William
Jennings Bryan on his success in Neb-
raska as delegate to the national con-
vention.
While the resolutions adopted had
no specific reference to the question
of prohibition it was plain early in
the convention that the dry forces
were practically in the ascendancy
an dthat the women, practically to q
unit, were bone dry.
