What complaint have you now. Yes, it hard to swallow boys but less help to elect the ticket. Prosecuting Attorney Cashman was forced down and out of the race for his second term; well what do you think of that for harmony. The Republican ticket is a good one, with one are two exceptions, and the colored voters, are majority of them are not so well pleased until some excuses are made The TIMES will make a special political issue on next Saturday in our new dress of type. We want to send or give every colored voters a copy of the paper in Pettis county. After Twenty years as Public Administrator Mr Jno, R Clopton, has excepted the nomination for justice of the Peace on the democratic ticket. Well country cant do him any good this time he must come by the city. Dr Harris was nominated on first ballot over two white men two years ago, and Dr Nassa, was one of them, but Dr Harris being a Negro he was beaten by over a thousand votes. Now Dr Nassa, was nominated by acclamation this year and the question how big his majority will be a mong the colored voters. Hon. G. P Peale, the nominee of the Seventh district republican convention, is an orator of great force. He is magnetic, and carries his audience with him at every point. He comes from Greene county the home of the democratic nominee, and will give that gentleman another defeat to record at the close of the campaign, he is hustler and will make a hot fight. Messrs Kerens and Tracy, two of the distinguished visitors in Sedalia Thursday, express the opinion that with such perfect understanding and oneness of purpose as exists in the republican ranks here there can be no possibility of defeat. But the fact must not be lost sight off that the emocrats of the county has an exeptionally good ticket in the field, and that present differences --- may be smoothed over. We are not so sure of success that we can afford to let other fellows do all of the campaigning. Now that the two county tickets are nominated and are in the field for the consideration of the Pettis county voters, and the flight is now on in full blaze. The colored voters will be solicited on every hand to vote for Mr so and so, and will be offered sums of money for their suffrag. We urge upon our people to be sure and begin right and when they do above all stay tight, and remember that the men you elect this fall, will be there for the next two or four years, and if he is not a friend to the colored man, let him be who he may, he should not receive the Negroes support and be put into a big fat office. It he has proven to the masses of the Negroes voters that he is their friend like Mr Kelley, Bothwell, Franklin and James Ringen has did, then you must not suffer them to be downed. The time is come when young and old Negroes must putting any and everything in office by their votes for a few dollars are a false smile and the slavery plea, we want jobs, we want men who believes that it is no disgrace to vote for a Negro when he has been nominated on a republican ticket by republican convention, we want men in our county court and in other county offices who believes that there are some Negro in Pettis county who is capable of washing spittoons and sweeping rooms in our court house, we want deputies in as many places as possible. How many of the voting young men, yes middle and aged colored voters will join in and help make a fight for public jobs for some deserving young man. Preachers and school teachers now is your time to show the people that you are for building up the coming young Negro, if you must edge in politics, tell your people to stop voting for beer, cogs and a few pennies and go to voting for race interest and chance to earn an honest dollar. The young men who have consented to go into the Knights of Pythias club, are requested to meet next week.

ON AGAIN-APRIL 30TH THE "KATY" FLYEI Short Talks on Advertising By Charles Austin Bates. No. 18. Don't expect the newspaper to do it all. Look out for the show window and the cases and counters. When you advertise something of special interest in the papers, fill the window cial interest in the papers, fill the window with it and have it prominently displayed in the store. Have some neat tickets painted and hung near the goods A Be sure all clerks know what going on. If we're running stores would make it first rule ever clerk should every advertem every day. I would have the understand just what I was trying to do with each advertisement—just what the goods were and where they came from and how they happened to be so cheap, or so good, or both. your advertisement. The day you leave the ad day on which somebody will look for it, and, not finding it, go to a competitor. The last of a series is the one that sells the goods. A man may see your ad thirty days in July and not buy till the thirty-first ad wields conviction into his mind. It's the last stroke that makes a horseshoe—all the others were merely preparatory. The shoe was not a shoe till the last blow fell. If that had not been given it would only be a semblance of a shoe—merely a bent piece of iron. A sale is secured by the last word that is spoken—by the last ad that is read. If it remained unspoken, or unread, the sale would often fail entirely. Advertising is the insurance of business, but you must keep up the premiums or the policy will lapse. Copyright, Charles Austin Bates, New York. Short Talks Advertisement By Charles Austin No. 19.

The reason is to be found in the advertisements themselves. Advertisers are more careful than they used to be. They make the advertisements more readable. Some of them even become, in a way, a department of the paper, and people look for them every day with as much zest and pleasure as they turn to any other feature. This is true of many department stores all over the country. In many cities there is just one man who appreciates the value of such interest. He breaks away from the old set style. He tells something interesting in his space every day. There are lots of interesting things in business. Look over the miscellany page of any paper—look at its local news columns, and its telegraph news, for that matter, and you'll see that the majority of the items are more or less closely related to some business fact.
