The county candidates are now lined uu for the finish race and it is Just a question of who will first cross tiie wire at the finish in August. So far the candidates can be coinpll merited for making a clean, manly campaign. There Is no need of a harvest hand leaving Texas county for work in the wheat fields for every man will be eeded here to take care of the large wheat crop In Missouri. Higher wages will be paid In the western states but the difference in wages will he paid out for railroad fare and other expenses. The harvesting of wheat hut b-gun almost as early in South Missouri as in Oklahoma and Kansas.
