lished. There should be at least
orw in every county to get after the dead beats and give them the publicity that their "business deserves. There isn't a dead beat on earth who wants his busi- n-ss advertise 1. To give him publicity hurts his business, bu'- when you hurt his business you benefit in the same proportion legitimate business interests and help to bring about conditions under which no margin is needed for lossontho "slick ducks" known as dead beats, and the honest man who pays his debts would therefore not bo required to pay profit enough on his purchases to pay the accounts of the dead bests. Bad debts should be col- lected, if possible, but if they can't be collected they should be sold at public auction, after be- ing advertised in such a way as to give the deadb'ats the kind of publicity that they deserve. We are glad to note that the press and. business men of this State are getting right square in be- hind the deadbeats and are mak- ing them squirm as the light is turned on and their "busircss" exposed.— Marshville Home.

Only forty five persons sat down to dinner at John Arm- strong's home near Doniphan Sunday. There was no special attraction or occasion, and noth ing unusual about it. r.nd that as high as sixty persons have been to the Armstrong home for din- ner at one table. There are fif- teen persons at the Armstrong home who are there all the time —Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong, (lev en children and two hired bauds.
Tiie re«t of those that were present Sunday at dinner were kin who dropped in without no tice to spend the day. Nothing was said about the large crowd and to those present it seemed as ordinary as a family gathering of a uozen or less. Mrs. Armstrong has a great reputation as a cook and it is said that anyone eats if her cooking is never satisfied until be is backagain —Wathena Times.
Music and Silvr
After the rehearsal last night the members of th Second Regi- ment Band marched <.o the corner
of Queen and rVashington.stree's and serenaded Mr. and Mrs. \V. A. Jordan. Mr. Jordan has been a member of the band sine? its organization and to express their appreciation for his zealous work in the interest of the band the members decided to give him a little surprise last night. After playing for a while they called for Mr. Jordan and his bride and presented them a set of silver knives, fo.-ks and spoons- Mr. H. W. Cummings, Jr., presented he silver on behalf of the band
in a cleverly prepared speech, which was accented by a charac teristic response from Mr. Jor- dan.—Kinston Free Press, 24'h.

Mr. Bryan, it is reported, will in a few days announce his will irgneSS to be the Democratic candidate for President in 1908. If Mr. Bryan takes such a stand, his hold upon the parly i.. most of the sections of the country will be such us to make it exceed- ingly diiiieult to organize a suc- cessful movement aga nst him.
I f M r Bryan ru as for President in 1908, it will be his third con- test for tint ofiice. Hfl will then be the fourth man to make three campaigns for toe presidency.
