LADDONIA AT ST. LOUIS.
Marriage and Giving in Marriage Now
the Proper Caper-.Rainy Sunday.

Correspondence of the Ledger.
LADDoNIA, October S.-There is some
thing calm and peaceful in a rainy Sunday.
One can sit at home dressed in their ease,
fearless of callers, read, write, or pass
the time as n likes. Once in awhile
we like a rainy Sunday, especially if it
follows Il noisy, stirring week, as this has
been. The greater part of last week we,
in company with many of the Laddonians,
spent in St. Louis at the great fair. Ev-
erybody went to see the yelled prophets.
The streets were crowded, only leaving
room for the procession, and there the
vast crowd stood for three hours. What
great things-Hope and Expectation! How
often do they keep people from growing
weary! The yelled prophets were grand,
and, although we were crowded, knocked
and damned 1--WE had a seat in the court
house yard), we felt fully paid to see the
grand procession, and felt proud of St.
Louis, as one of the greatest cities in the
United States. The country people left
many thousands of dollars there, but thew
got well paid for their money. On
Wednesday night we started home, and
it seemed to us that everybody had taken
a notion to start home at the same time
and to go on the same train, and, if pos
sible, to crowd in the same car. We no.
ticed two ladies crowd in the seat with a
s~entleman-a reporter on the Kansas City
ffmes-but, like all reporters, he was
good natured, and took the imposition
without a word. Other gentleman(?)
tried to see how much room they could
take, and left several ladies to stand up
overs distance of a hundred miles. When
we reached Roodhouse, another car was
hitched on, which helped a little. People
going to St. Louis would find it much
pl%easanter to get off the cars at the bridge,
as it's very suffocating going through the
tunnel. Two weddings in one week for
Laddonia! Miss Kate Mullinax and will
Creabam Were married last Thursday
morning, and tool the l O'Clock train for
St. Louis. Miss Annie Clark and Archie
Leet were married same pay at 4 O'Clock.
We wish the two couples a happy life.
W. johnson has gone to get married. He
has not been heard from for a week, and
many fear the excitement has been too
great for him. Mrs. Kate Avery leaves
Monday for Chicago Exposition and home.

Edwin

Or. Kanefn the Chicago.Herald.)
"One of nay first ventures" said
Edwin Forrest, sin the dramatic line,
shortly after my debut as Young Nor
val, was with a company which played
a brief and titful engagement in Ken
lucky. The company came to grief
at Lexington, and l cast about to see
what l could do. I.could not afford
to be idle long, and one day 1 fell in
with two F%renchmen, Popin and Bis
chard, who came along with a circus
company. After a slight hesitation
l joined them. 1 was not used to
riding, but l could jump and tumble,
so l went into the ring with the best
performers they had. 1 was not
meant for the circus. however, and I
soon drifted back to the legitimate.
In the following spring Forrest went
to New York in a destitute condition,
most of his clothes having been kept
at Albany in part payment for his
board. He was disguised with his
profession and had about made up
his mind to quit the stage, when he
was asked by an obscure actor to
play for his benefit at the Park thea
ter. The mans tale of distress
touched him, and he consented.
That was the turning point Of his
career. He chose "Othello'' for the
occasion, and the benefit was a sweep
ing success. On the day following
Clifford, the manager of the Bowery
theater, placed $500 in Forests hand
and engaged him for one year. From
that time forward his course was a
series of success.

Upon the first page of this paper
will be found a synopsis of Mr.. Thos.
B Buckner's campaign speech, de-
voted to general politics, and. there
fore, very naturally opening with an
arraignment of the Republican party.
Mr.. Buckner is the democratic nomi-
e for county prosecuting attorney,
and, if elected, will fill that office with
credit to himself and profit to the
community ; and it is to be hoped that
his speech will be carefully read by
the voters in the county, and especial
ly by all young men who are about
to cast their first ballot. Prominent
republicans may brag and buster
and point at Gould and attempt to
hold democrats in this state response
BILE for not having been able to wholly
check and counteract the legitimate
outcome of the policies and tactics of
republicanism, but for all that it is
palpable to the commonest observer
that what is complained of is traceable
to republican financial mismanage-
ment. For twenty years that party
has manipulated. expended and APP
portioned the national income, amount
ing annually to hundreds Of millions
of dollars, and during that time has
favored banks, manufacturing and
railroad magnates. and syndicates.
1t has chartered and furnished untold
millions of circulation for banks, laid
heavy tariffs to protect corporate in
dustry, donated vast portions of the
national domain to railroads, and af-
forded syndicates opportunities to
enrich themselves at the expense Of
honest investors. Never before was
there such almost universal dread of
corporate rapacity. Everywhere the
prevailing apprehension of monopoly
and monopolists finds expression not
alone in strikes, but in the press, up
on the hastings, and at party conven.
tons. The republicans are alarmed
at the consequences Of their mistakes
and misdeeds, and look to the democ-
racy for deliverance. Everywhere
through republican fostering, through
corporations recklessly created, and
privileges unconstitutionally granted,
the rights of the many + menaced
by the fact that every day the few
are becoming richer and more power
full, and the many poorer and more
defenseless; and the feeling is in
creasing that the republican party is re-
spOnsible for this condition of society,
and is, therefore, unfit to be longer
entrusted with authority. The people,
too, are rising in their majesty, and
in due time will rid themselves of the
incubus that is pressing so heavily
upon them. Mr.. Buckner's effort
was in the right direction, and it is
to be hoped his words will be remem-
bered, weighed and appreciated.

Frank James, the last of the train
robbers, has surrendered uncondi-
tionally and with a meekness that is
admirable. There are several indict-
ments against him in Missouri and
other States. He is ready for trial in
all the eases, and thinks On account
of the time that has elapsed it will be
hard to prove him guilty in any case.
Evidently he looks for mercy in
Missouri and hopes that protracted
proceedings in this State will prevent
his being taken away to other States.
In any case his lot is far preferable
to that of Jesse.

Trouble Between the Alton and @. B. & O.

From reliable sources we are in
formed that the origin of the present
cut in rates to Chicago exposition
has been brought about as follows:
For the past ten years the c. & A..
Company have sold tickets to Chica-
go and return during the exposition
at very low rates-S7 from Mexico
and Sc from Louisiana. These rates
have enabled a large number of par
ties from Missouri to visit the great
city of Chicago, who at higher rates
would not have had the opportunity.
The c. B. & @. have only lately
found this out, and as they do not
deal as literally with their local pas
sengers as the c.. & A. but compel
them to pay one and one-third fares.
They made a demand upon the Alton
company that they should recall the
S. rate from Louisiana which would
Of course have recalled all the low
rates through Missouri. The Alton
people refused to be bulldozed, and
the c. B. & @. are now trying their
hands at a fight to compel them to
withdraw the rate. We think we
know which side our citizens will take
in this matter.

truth, says:
"McNair is a lecherous money
loaner and bond-holder and it will
surprise US if he receives more than
one hundred votes in his own coun-
ty-Warren. He has no ability for
the position, and was never known to
do anything to recommend him to
