once eEilGp DfOtuef, ostlaas~
ter General Key, To the Pha-
rlsaic cant and unflled decauters
Of the White House he nas bent
the pregant hinges Of his knees;
and whilst violating tho highest
sanctities of official life by unau-
'<horized expenditures, aess&:'ns.
which there were no appropria-
tions, he has pronounced it a
contamination OF the mails to
carry letters to persons or COM
panies against whom no charge
of fraud can be sustained. So
earnest indeed is he in this mat
ter that he has actually asked
Congress to SO enlarge his pow
ers that be can deal with legally
authorized aud honestly con-
dncted lotteries with the same
degree OF severity that he could
il they were base and fraudulent
concerns.
Now, if il had but occurred to
the 2. III. G. to pull the beam out
OF bis own eye before he under
took to draw the mote out OF his
brothers eye, he might have dis
covered that it was less heinons
to manage Legally authorized
and honestly conducted lottery,
under the sanctuary Of a reputa-
BILE State, than It was to thrust
his hand into The Federal Treas-
ury and spend money crooksdIy
over which he had nc legitimate
control and for the expenditure
OF which there Was no public me-
cessity,
Again: Where he extremely de-
sirous OF being earnest in we'll
doing, spite of all the suggestions
of Pharisaic cant, might with far
greater propriety have interYenea
on behalf OF q promised reform
in civil service by asking author
ity to prevent toe prostitution of
the mails in carrying false and
libelle campaign documents,
and the official machinery by
which partisan assessments on
public employees are enforced
to the disgrace and demoral;za-
ton OF our public service.
Possibly some of these spari-
ous reformers might be found
nearer home and-not to make
too fine q point OF tin our own
legislative chambers. Those ex-
IRENE refcruers who adopt the
worst and most undemocratic
methods Of Radicallsm for par
tisan purposes, and serve them
selves rather than their eoastitu-
ents, can not expect to pass to
the right when the sheep are

An informal meeting was
held at the Ringo House parlors last
Monday night, DR.. Ready in the chair
and Capt. Shea secretary. About
forty of Mexico's young men were
present, ready to enlist if the country
wasn't in danger. The manifest will
ingness 70 '.join the army proves
to be very f~attering to the patriotism
of our young men who wish to be
first in war, first in peace and first in
the hearts of their lady loves T. C.
Ready, J. Med. Trlmble and Jouett
Fomlinson were appointed a commit
tee of three to draft constitution and
bylaws and take other steps neces-
sary to a permanent organization,
which will be perfected at the meet
ing tonight 10 the Ringo House par
lors, Nos. l ana2. No harm can,
and we think great gdod will grow
out of this new enterprise. We
were glad to e q many of our
young men present. tfhs old men,
business men of MextGp, also pro-
nounce themselves Welt pleased, and
will aid with their presence, and
more substantially if necessary. 1t
is the duty of every man to know
more Or less, as he has the opportu-
nifty, about military tactics. There is
no knowing when such knowledge
will prove useful. The good growing
out of the social feature will not be
small. Our young men will in this
way be brought to know each other
better, and society will be at least to
some degree improved. The cost
will be very light. The uniforms
will cost perhaps s25. The arms will
be furnished by the State. An armory
and hall will have to be rented, the
cost of which will be nominal. 1t is
desirable that we should have sixty
members--34 is the least number
we a organize with under the State
charter. A. full attendance is desired
tonight, as the organization will a
once take definite shape. Come t.
the front! Let us make the company
/ an honor to Mexico.

Pleasant Features.

One of the pleasant features about
Mexico's dry goods stores are the
lady clerks. Some ladies, and all
gentlemen, prefer to trade with lady
clerks. Miss Mamie Quisenberry,
with her business ways and winning
smiles, holds forth at Reed & Nelson's
mammoth store. Miss Ella Hit, one
of Mexlco's sweetest young ladies, is
with Harper & Turner. Miss Marshall
is now with Ricketts, & Emmons,
whose advertisement can be found in
the LEDGER.
