Township Organization,

There is only n argument in favor of
township organization, and that is, that
u roads might possibly be cared for a
little better.-LEDGER.
We have not been out in the coun-
ty any recently, but those who have
tell us that our roads never were be-
fore in such wretched condition as at
present. Township organization was
adopted here two years ago-Chariton

Which goes to show that the scheme
proves no good where it has been
tried. The more we examine into
the matter the better satisfied we are
that we need nc change in the man
agement of the affairs of Audrair

Pirates Of Penzance.


The new opera house was opened
last Thursday night by Prof. Treloar
and an amateur company with the
comic opera of 'tPirates of Penzance,''
with which the public vas favored for
three consecutive nights. Like all
entertainments which Prof. Treloar
manages, it gave perfect and enthusi-
astic satisfaction. Each and every
one did we'll, and we have not the
space to notice any one in particular.
The soloists all deserve especial no.
tice. Parties who heard professional
companies render the same opera say
they did no better. Mrs. r. NJ. White
presided at the piano, and Mr.. T. M.
Gill accompanied her with the violin.
Saturday night Miss Treloar took the
part Of "Ruth," Miss Efie Laforce
being sick. Miss Treloar did exceed
ingly well. She did not know she
would have to take part till the eve
ming before. The entertainment was
a grand success, and was greeted with
crowded houses. Such entertainments
are always well appreciated in Mex
leo, and Prof. Treloar deserves credit
for much that is done in this line.

SOME ONE MISTAKEN.
Brooks eaman or the Ledger.
To the Editor of the LEDGER

To the Editor of the LEDGER
WARRENsnURG, Mo-, August l5.-The
statement In the LEDGER Il lew weeks
since, that DIR. Yeaman was not a pro-
hibitionist, l am c~reditably informed is
not correct. Indeed, / know it cannot be
from facts already before me.
ia. BROOKS.
The above is an extract from a
letter from John A. Brooks, received
at this office Monday. We do not
know whether Rev. Pope Yeaman is
to-day a prohibitionist or not. We
do know that at the time the article
referred to appeared in the LEDGER
he a not a prohibitionist, or, at
least, said he was not. The editor of
this paper was at Jefferson City at
tending the State Convention, before
which DIR. Yeaman was a candidate.
1t was thought by his friends that the
St. Louis delegation would not vote
for his nomination. because they
thought he was prohibitionist.
William Hyde, Of the st. Louis
Republican, sent a reporter to DIR.
Yeaman, and asked him whether he
was a prohibitionist Or not. Yeaman
said he was not, and it so appeared in
the next mornings st. Louis Republi-
can. W. then heard it talked on the
street that Yeaman had been a pro-
hibitionist, but changed to catch the
st. Louis vote. We did not believe
this, for we don't think Yeaman
would 60 back on principles for any
office. J. Med. Trimble of this city,
was asked by Yeaman's personal
friends who knew and who had asked
him, to state in the speech he made
seconding Yeaman's nomination that
he was not a prohibitionist. Trimble
did not do this, because he thought it
bad policy. The parties who asked
Trimble to make this statement have
told US since we received Brooks
letter that Yeaman told them he was
not a prohibitionist, and now comes
John A. Brooks and states emphat-
ically and dogmatically that the
LEDGER was incorrect. The LEDGER
was correct, or else Rev. Pope Yea
man did not rightly state his position,
and we cannot believe that he did
not. We do not want to misrepresent
anybody; neither do We proposeto be
scared out of a position when we are
right.

Shall We Close Our Saloons and Open
TWENTY DOggeries, and Lose
$1,000 Per Year?

During the past few days there has
been much talk on the street concern
ing the rumor that the city council
next Monday night would surprise
people by voting against saloon Ii
cense. Mexico to-day has an annual
income of Sc, 400 from saloons. With
out this what we do? Contracts have
been made for improvements and gas
works undertaken-all with the ex-
pectation of using this Cut
off this source of revenue, and every
enterprise will be stopped. Not only
this, but there will be just as much
whisky sold and drank as now, and
the city will get no revenue in return.
We are sure our city council, at this
time, will not reflect the sentiments of
their constituents, nor will they do
the best thing for the city, if they
close the saloons. Such a sudden
chenge in the policy of III city gov
eminent is bound to do Mexico harm,
and naturally decrease the value of
property. We are personally ac-
quainted with the affairs of the city,
and know that every improvement
and enterprise would not only be
crippled, but killed by the loss of
this income. If the closing of the
saloons would stop the whisky drink
ing, we would say, Amen; but We
know such is not the case.
