CONGRESSIONAL.
Mr.. Weaver's Resolution in the House.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April G.
There being no business taking PRE-
cedence of it before the House. Mr..
Weaver submitted motion to sus-
pend the rules, that vote might be
reached on his financial resolution,
but the House refused to entertain it
by vote of 50 yeas to III nays. To
have suspended the rules would have
required $50 votes more. The over
whelming defeat was due to
mixing up too many finan-
cial crochets in one resolution.
BY following such course, Mr..
Weaver antagonized every class of
tinanciers i'll congress, the mono
metallsts, tie national bank men,
those advocating acknowledgements,
and such rs doubt the power Of con-
grcss to create an unlimited tender
in times of peace. Taking the whole
scope of his resolution into consider
alton, the wonder is, that as many as
50 voted to suspend the rules.
Doubtless, upon direct vote upon
the resolution, still less would have
been in favor of passing it. Some
would have objected to one part of it
and others to other of its provisions.
Some that voted for suspcnding the
rules as they explained their votes
sought opportunity to amend it. Had
Mr.. Weaver submitted 4 resolution
containing one reasonable proposition
it might have been sustained, but he
seems to have sought a rebuff for po-
litical buncomb in his party, and to
have succeeded in his aims.
Although the resolution contained
nothing beyond expression of senti-
ment, to have passed it without alter
alton and explanation would have
been a blow struck at national credit
its adoption would have been regard
ed at home and abroad as declara-
ton that systematic Reputation was
contemplated by congress, and if
anybody shirked going on the record
against such resolution as has been
asserted, they certainly acted very
toolishly.
Mexico weekly ledger., 1880-04-29

1t is not with solicitation from any
source that we call attention to this
gentleman. We do it simply because
he is a candidate for Secretary of
State, therefore the people should
know as much of him as might pertain
to him as a state officer.
James Carroll was born on the 10th
of November, 1888, in Waterford, Ire
land. His parentage is of the true
and pure Celtic stock, possessing all
that that people did, and do at the
present time,-a sanguine nervous
temperament so characteristic of the
Irish people.
James, when quite young, was put
as an apprentice to the mercantile
business and served his full term, and
when at eighteen years of age came to
America and still followed his prefes-
sion until ten years ago, when he en-
tered upon the duties of clerk of the
circuit court.
He settled in Missouri in 1854,
twenty-siX wears ago, and came to
Audrain county, his present home, in
1858, and has lived here ever since.
He was elected clerk of the Audrain
circuit court in 1870 and has held
that office till the present time, and
in that position has acquitted himself
with great credit, making one of the
best officers known to the courts.
Mr. Carroll has ever been an active
and enterprising man, full of public
spirit and doing great labor in social
and public affairs. AS above stated
he is forty-seven years old, tall, not
thinly built nor yet stocky, but has q
firm and active constitution. He has
very quick, active brain and acute
observation, and very accurately
clerical in all his work. Mr.. Carroll
has but few enemies. His tempera-
ment is active and he is quick to re-
sent, but as quickly to make amends,
if in any manner he supposes he has
offended. He is u Democrat of the
most enthusiastic stamp, and spends
his time and money for the success of
his party, whether he is candidate
or rot. We dot not suppose that he
could rest in philosophic calmness
beneath the shade of a weeping willow
if assailed with relentless hand; he
is too excitable for that. We appre-
hend he would rather fight than do
any such thing.
The people of Audrain would elect
him Secretary of State if they could
have an opportunity, and will do their
best to nominate him at the Jefferson
City convention.-Hera

JONES JUGGLED.
Same Gang that Worked Mexico.

On Wednesday night while the 10
p. m. train from Kansas City to St.
Louis was standing at the Garrison
House depot, Michael Jones, better
known as "dirty" Jones, a very ec-
centric but wealthy middle aged man,
was robbed on the train of $1,000 in
cash, and checks and other papers,
amounting IN all to $4,000. Jones
lives in Colorado, sixty miles south
Of Ft. Collins, and is an extensive
cattle dealer. He is sharp, eXpe-
rienced business man, and sends large
quantities of stock East, but with the
imprudence characteristic of his class,
is in the habit of carrying large
amounts of money on his person, in
stead of depositing it in the bank or
getting drafts for it.
On the train coming from Kansas
City, Jones ''took up" with Il nice
looking, intelligent fellow, who made
himself very agreeable, as such fel
lows always do. Jones had rolls of
bills, packages of money and checks
in several pockets of his garments
When the train stopped the young
man handed Jones q package with
the reques that he would hold it un-
til he came back. He came back in
q minute, with four other men, seemed
in a very great hurry, grabbed hold
of Jones and told him to get up quick
and give him the package. In one
minute the four men each had hand
on him and two pockets were cleaned
out and the men rushed from the cars
before he could realize the daring and
successful onslaught that had been
made upon him. The platform was
crowded with departing delegates and
the bold thieves made their escape
without the slightest difficulty Sc
dalia Eagle.
There is no doubt but what this is
the same gang that worked Mexico
on the day of the execution, snatch
ing a Sl50 wallet at the depot
1t is also the same gang that beat a
man at three-card monte on the w.
st. L. & r. r. Il. last Tuesday night
and avoided our detectives when
landing i'll Mexico. Officers were put
on their trail. Sheriff Glascock and
Marshal Coons were tclegraphed to
from Montgomery City by the con-
ductor, and were at the train with a
posse of men. When the train stop
ped, some tramps who were stealing
a ride jumped off and ran. The OFF,
GERS thinking this was the gang start
ed in pursuit, while their men got of
the train and quietly walked off in
the dark. They will be caught soon.

THE CAMPAIGN,
Presidential, State and County Candidates.

The selection of a President is
usually a matter of profound interest,
but perhaps never since the country
had government, has campaign
presented issues of mere vital impor-
tance, Or more closely related to the
perpctulty of republican institutions,
than the one upon which the nation
Is entering. If the Democracy, State
and National, shall act with wisdom,
unless the legislatures of New York
and Virginia shall forestaIl popular
action i'll those states by selecting
presidential electors in the event of
Grants nomination, there will be no
difficulty in securing q democratic
president who shall cmbody in his
views and actions those principles
which for SO many years have made
the American union the pride of our
people, and the consummation oi
human hope.
a great deal of assistance towards
such q result can be derived from jul
dIcIous selection of candidates ful
state and county offices. In this. as
in other communities, there are voters
who, on election day, are governed
by other motives than love of country
and party fealty. A careful exam.
ination of this county would certainly
show that a large majority of its citi.
zens, from honest conviction that the
Democratic party advocates the safest
and soundest political doctrines,
would prefer to support Democratic
candidates: but at the same time there
are numbers that judge of office seek
ers wholly by their qualifications, and
desire above all else to see public pc.
oitions filled by those in whose intcg-
rity and capacity they have unbound
ed confidence. Such scrutinizers 0!
personal character are not always
careful To sustain either country Oh
party. AT one election, they vote with
the Democrats # they prefer their
candidates, and At another, they up.
hold their opponents if they think
they lave put up the best men
/ Those that act thus are ever on the
increase, and il cannot be safe TO rely
On mere party tie to hold any that
, entertain what they conceive to be
valid objections to nominees. Under
>uch circumstances. what does a bus.
mess man, 4 merchant, farmer, law.
yer or doctor care for what he regards
rs either party dictation or party lash
OF what consideration to such are the
mandates and edicts OF caucuses, com,
niltees or conventions, Or even tnt
results Of primaries?
In allud'ng to these matters, W.
have no desire to discourage any one
seeking Office, much less to throw cold
water upon any proposed plan for Sc
Getting Democratic candidates. Our
aim is to prevent indiscrcte and pre-.
mature committals. The party ought
/ not base lis nominations on the mer,
hope of ability to elect, it ought tt
select standard bearers with view
/ . increase OF lis strength. We have ne
/ ,Ioubt that plenty Of such material i:
within easy reach, and that it will b,
/ pat up with platform that cannot b,
successfully assailcd. For our par
We prefer tried and approved faithful
/ public servants.

A. IL. Buckner.

Wonder if there is newspaper in
this congressional district that can
support Buckner for congress again.
He is a high-taritf monopolist, in
favor of manufacturers and against
the interests of the West. At least
his opposition to the removal of the
duty on paper, salt, &c looks that
way.-Paris Appeal.
Our Bro. is mistaken. We know
whereof we speak when we say that
Mr.. Buckner did not vote against this
bill. He is always found voting for
measures that win benefit the masses
of the people.
