That wealth causes more sor¬
row than poverty. (Ask John D.)
That the 200,000 Roman Oath
ohls voted for Taft and Sherman.
That high tariff is likened unto
an enormous and very high wall
that stands, as it were, between
the common people and their
dues.
That the steel trust during the
year 1907 piled up a larger sum
in net profits than all the agri¬
cultural classes has been able to
pile up during the ten years from
1890 to 1900, notwithstanding the
fact that there were more than
6.000,000 laborers employed, and
that they bad invested more than
$18,000,000,1X10. With all this
and with all their toil and indus¬
try, the records show that the
farmers made only $1251,000,000
—not wages—while the same re¬
cords show that the steel trust
clears every year from $100,000,
000 to $190,000,000,
And that this way of dividing
profits must suit the majority of
the people as they voted to have
it continued—at least four more
yeurs. And unless they get
their eyes open they will vote in
the same old way again and again.
Why? Well, jusc because their
daddy did.
That the sugar trust helped to
elect Taft and Sherman to the
fund of $500,000. The steel trust
helped more.

county supported the uominee

That there is a bran new- Coun¬
cil of the Jr. O. U. A. M. at Eton

That next Saturday night will
be the time to elect officers for
1909 in the I O. O. F. lodges in
Murray. Be sure to elect the
right members—for much de¬
pends on this.
That this is the season for the
local Unions to eleev their offic¬
ers for 1909, and to elect the
right men means much.
That the directors of the Farm¬
ers’ warehouse, at Chatsworth,
have decided to sell $2,000 worth
of ftock to the membership and
that the members will do well to
take advantabe of the opportuni¬
ty to own stock in this concern—
it’s good property.
That the Farmers’ E. and O.
Union of A. is bitterly opposing
foreign immigration.
That to improve our public

Mr. Erastu* Cromwell Henley,
received the beginning of his
education, and that we are al¬
ways eager to read Mr. Henley’s
interesting letters. Tell Mr.
Henley rhat my wife saved a
whole brood of chickens for him
last summer, thinking that he
would be sure to be here, and
that the chickens are here yet,
but are too tough for fries. But
will fix for him again next sum
met if he will come over. Would
send him some chestnuts if I hsu
’em to send, but I just sent all I
had to my brother at Granberry
a few days ago, though I think
some of The Murray News read
ers will surely send him some.
