JUST A LITTLE NOTE
FROM A LIVE ONE

Brookfield, Mo-, Feb. 3.-The Chari-
ton Courier, KeytesvilIe, Mo.-Gen-
tlemen. In looking over your pa
per we do not notice any advertise
ments of Implements. This seems
strange-evidently a good place for
some live fellow to do some business.
Or do people down there believe in adj
fvertising? We tried all ways inn
taginable and tested this out careful
ly; as our business has thribbled we
can't help but feel that advertising
pays and pays big. Will enclose an
ad and would like to have you run
this in your next three or four is
sues.
Now, if there is regular adver-
tiser Of implements, and this will
cause any friction with your custo-
mers, do not insert the add, we feel
this way about it; we are all one
great big family, we all have to live
and the better we treat each other
the better life we can live and en-
joy life more, so it is not our pur-
pose in sending this little add to you
to infringe on others, but if they are
not going after the business there we
would like to. There is no use to let
the mail order houses have all the
business, when we can compete with
them, and if we let the public know
it, we can get the business instead.
Hence this add sent for your consi-
deration anil trust you will give it the
proper display and any other notice
that you feel inclined to give it.
am, yours truly, J. B. Keithly.

the additional costs that taxpayers
would be assessed should the water
works be installed in Keytesville.
1t was shown that the difference
in insurance rates with water would
come very nearly paying the increas-
ed taxation, and this is one of the
things that should be drummed into
everyone's think box.
Of course, there are many other
things that, should be taken into con-
sideration in the matter, and perhaps
the greatest of these is the matter
Of the enhancement of values that
will accrue after it has become known
that Keytesville has aroused itself
from its Rip Van Wrinkle habits.
The next speaker was F. B. Barnes.
field man for the st. Louis CONNER
cial club. He is is pleasing speaker
and he showed the difference in com
munities that are to date and those
that have allowed themselves to die
just watching the professions of the
live ones pass by in their activi-
ties. Mr.. Barnes is strong for COM
mercial clubs and also for the real
things for which they stand.
Numerous local speakers added tes-
timony to the fact that Keytesville
was in need of waking up and climb
ing onto the band wagon of activity.
The Commercial club will be called
together next Tuesday night and it
is hoped that there will be turn out
of which the town will not be asham-
ed. Keytesville is one of the very
few towns its size without water
works and undoubtedly the only
county seat in the state without fire
protection.

gineer in water works built for both

votes will be enough to win, for it
won't. There is more than one can
didate in this class right now, and,
before the final scene comes into
play, you may expect to see these
figures greatly enlarged Don't
take single chance of losing the
prize you most desire. What if you
should fall short by a few hundred
thousand votes-representing a mere
handful of fong-term subscriptions.
You should never forgive yourself
the fatal error
Over confidence has lost many bat
ties. Relaxation at this stage Of the
game is suicidal to success. Deter
mination to win, coupled with re-
lentness activity in vote-getting will
make any candidate winner. There
is no time to hesitate. What is to be
done must be done now. To tempor-
arize is to let some competitor sweep
ahead and claim the prize that would
have been yours.
After this Saturday night the man.
agement of this campaign will be as
much in the dark as to the number
of subscriptions collected during the
last three days and contained in the
sealed box as the most casual read
or, which makes the wind-up ex-
tremely interesting, if not exciting.

HUNTSVILLE CUTS PAY OF
ALL CITY OFFICIALS

The Moberly Democrat hears that
at a regular session of the city coun-
Gil of Huntsville Thursday night, the
members of the board put on an
economical move and cut the salaries
right and left. First they cut their
own salaries from $50 to 81 a year.
Next they slung the ax into the may
or's salary and Trimmed it down
from 500 to 81 a year. Next they
whacked off the city attorneys sal
ary from $500 to S4 a year, and then.
clipped off $40 from the city mar
shal's $50 per month income and
trimmed down the police judges SAL
ary from $25 to 81 a year, and cut
the city clerks salary from $50 to
$40 a year, and then sliced 2 per
cent off of the city collectors
fees, and relieved the city treasurer
of So of his IS salary per year. His
commission was not disturbed, nor
the salary of the street commission.
There have been so many break
downs at the city well in the last
year or two and entailed so much
extra expense without sufficient
funds to meet expenses was the rea-
son they took the course they did to
help them out of the hole some. The
saving to the city, they claim, viii
amount to more than 81 900 per year.
None of the officers whose salaries
were cut viii resign, it Is said.
