Vermont isn't much of a State.
The soil is SO thin that they have to
blast holes in the rock when they
want to bury their dead up there.
There is scarcely a county in Arkan-

rs Vermont and have enough material
left for a couple Of Rhode Island

Our Thanks.

We are under many obligations to
all of our friends who have assisted
in making the Fair Daily a success.
We have me. with great encourage
ment from Mexico's business men,
who have shown their willingness to
advertise in a paper with a circula
ton. We have been asked and earn
estly solicited, by many of our best
citizens, to make the DAILY LEDGER
a permanent thing in Mexico, but we
are compelled to decline, until our
city demands a good daily, which
can afford to take the associated
press news; a paper which will be a
credit to the town and do justice to
the proprietor. We shall not appear
on the field permanently, for the
present, at least. We shall, however,
devote our time to the best weekly
in the State.
The boys who have to stay on the
fair grounds all night enjoy them
selves trying to keep each other
awake. Each man seems to think
the others name Is Joe, and you car
hear them clear down town any hour
of the night calling, "Oh, joel"
If things are what they eem ant
skinned milk sells for cream, the DAI
ILY LEDGER will be revived some time
before the election. If it is, Rome
will be made to howl. W. will star
a branch Office in Wilson township.
The Intelligencer speaks about
