MEXICO, Mo-, May 21.-A polite
al document without parallel for the
candor and frankness has been made
public here by M. p. Durham in an
nouncing his candidacy for the Of
fif1ce of Galloway county clerk.
He addressed the following state
ment to the voters Of his county:
II wish to announce that have
had my shoes half-soled and my
corns doctored, and that I will be at
your home about noon or supper

by some as an old model 1 have

I have never been in jail and have
never been in office. While I may
not be fit for either place. I am will
ing to take chance on the latter.
None Of my ancestors came over
on the Mayflower, but think they
came just as soon after that as they
could raise the price. I discovered
America in 1875 l hope to discover
the remainder Of Galloway County
this summer.
But, If 1t falls to my lot to go up
Salt River, assure you I am an ex-

ton still sitting on TOP of the world

The prices of stocks quoted on the

the future price OF any stock. A pro-

which has more or less f0rsaken life
among the branches and taken TO the

Of this remarkable rarity possessed by
scientists was solitary skin. which
formed the evidence for recording the
species. This skin. 1t appears. was

was practically forgotten. But last
year an explorer visiting the remote
island Of Mukahira brought back with
him to America. several live speci
mems of the grey-hooded ground
pigeon, and these were presented, to
the New York Geological society. The
bird is Of small size. somber colors
somewhat hump-backed. and with the
comparatively long legs that might be
expected in ground-hunting bird.

STATES SPEND MONEY

Almost staggering are figures the
Department of Commerce offers in
showing the >tremendops increase in
cost of state governments, using
1917 as basis.
Congressman striving to make a
creditable reduction in the federal
tax levy condemn the apparent un-
willingness OF states to cooperate by
at least not increasing their levies.
No relief comes to taxpayers if a
half-billion is Topped OF in Wash
ington and half billion is added by
the states.
One Of the chief points open tc
criticism lies in the increase in cost
of maintenance and operation OF
the states, general Departmental
other words, the everyday upkeep
cost. In 1924 this item for the AZ
states stood at $1,001, 465,258, or
50 per capita. In 1917 it was $4.19
and in 1928, $S.17.
Turning to the total payments for
1924, including maintenance and
operation of public service enter
prises, interest on debt outlays for
permanent improvements amounted
to $1.513,62S,O21, or nearly three
times that OF 1917.
The net Indebtedness, funded and
floating, less sinking fund assets,
was S3.467,43S, or S1O.63 per
capita. In 1928 it was sS.72 and ir
1917, S4.y3.
II the states are to keep up
any general permanent improvement
schedule. strict economy is essential
True economy will not halt pro
gress. and it will insure the future.
In the end progress will be best
served by the policy economy.

Members Of the Bradford family
were connected with the three first
papers in Kentucky, and printers
trained under them moved on into
Missouri and Indiana. Elihu Stout.
the first editor at vincennes came
from the Bradfords, and in. 1904 start

supplies of paper were brought over

Ohio had two OF three papers that
antedated the first one in Indiana,
though there is some confusion OF
statements as to their beginnings and
indentities. The Sentinel Of the North

Marietta In 1893. was probably the
first paper north of the Ohio river.
The first publication In Illinois was
