Local store advertises New Royal sewing machines guaranteed for ten years and oak finishes on easy terms at low prices. Also a sale on hand painted jardiniers in multiple colors at strikingly low prices for a few days. Household items include unbleached Turkish towels, barber towels, men’s suspenders, butter sets, and newly released hand painted lamps at bargain prices.
The notice highlights strong items like tabie linens and wool dress goods in a large dry goods sale. It references a busy July period and emphasizes a vast stock of dry goods offered at the lowest prices, aiming for the biggest bargains on record.
The Board of Bond Commissioners calls for 300000 of outstanding Missouri State bonds. Gov. Dockery says the call lowers state debt to 487000 excluding school certificates and that taxes could drop from 26 to 17.5 cents per hundred if the school certificate system continues. Remaining bonds under half a million will be paid early next year.
The Moberly Chronicle reprints a strong defense of the county court by local officials. They deny improper use of road funds and challenge the road committee’s claims, asserting legal levies and open records support their actions. They urge taxpayers to review the records themselves and uphold the court’s integrity.
