of coin security in place OF a pohoed
one. Shareholders would then bank
upon their capital, and have the ne
cessity of earning interest on 1t as an
inducement to keep their notes In CIR
culation, and should they present
them for cancellation the coin returned
for them would replace them as cur
rency.
The tendency of the times is to in
crease banking institutions, and there
need not be the least fear that whole
some restrictions placed upon them
would reduce their numbers. The
more perfect they are made, the more
acceptable and numerous Will they
become. But, if they, like most
other existing corporations, are allow
ed too many privileges, the ndigna-
ton of the country will be as justly
excited against them in the future as
it has been in the past.

Ford q Fiend,


rum NC ttHtIdlit 'udEt-
Some months z there came to this
place from Cooper county, a man by the
name of Alex. Ford. He had a wife and
three children, all girls, the oldest being
sort of a fellow providing but poorly for
his family. About three months ago Ford
abandoned his wife and children, and Mrs.
Ford was compelled to work out in order
to support herfamily. Nothing was heard
from Ford until the early part of the pres
ent week. when he again appeared at his
iIfrymc. On Monday night he got drunk
returning home at midnight. IN the
morning Mrs. Ford arose at an early hour
in order to attend to her duties rs cook in
Bakers restaurant. In Il short time after
her departure, Ford called his oldest
daughter to him to battle his head, and
when she came within his reach he seized
her and brutally accomplished his tiendish
purpose. The girl at once went to her
mother and related the horrible story. In
a short time a warrant was issued and
Ford placed under arrest. On Wednesday
morning Ford had a preliminary trial be-
fore Squire Early, prosecuting attorney
J. Dew. Robinson appearing on the part
of the State. At the trial it was proven
that cord had on a number of former oc-
casions been guilty of the same thing.
Ford made no defense, and was committed
to Jail in default of 81 900. Hanging is
too good for such a brute. He should be
roasted at the stake or flaycd alive.

From the Columbia Herald.
Mr.. j. n. Basket, of Mexico, is in
Columbia with a view to establishing a
telephone exchanged this place. Mr..
Basket informs us that the exchange
in Mexico is in successful operation,
having about 60 subscribers. He pro-
poses to put up wires, place a telephone
and transmitter in the house of each
subscriber, and establish the central
office, the total expense to each sub
scriber to be 81 per month. Such an
exchange would be a great local con-
~venience and we hope to see it succeed.

The annualm meeting of the Missouri Press
association is billed to occur on May 9, in
st. Joseph. John A. CockeriIi, of the st.
Louis ost-Dispatch, and Phil. Ferguson,
of the St. Louis GlObe-Democrat, have been
assigned to deliver an address and a poem,
respectively. Here goes Il silver mine

tlemen to time. 1t was decided
that the annual excursion should be to
Galveston. Why this point should have
been selected instead of Denver is hard to
surmise. If the Missouri editors will de-
lay their excursion till the first week in
June and then come to Denver, they will
be received royalty, entertained withou,
expense to them, shown the sights al
Manitou and Pixies Peak and included in
the Colorado editors trip to Salt Lake
City, which is booked for early in June
BY all means, let the Missouri editors re-

"He's Got Plenty of Sand"

Dunnell, from Minnesota, lived and
received honor in the State of Maine
till the close of the war, when he re-
moved to the Northwest. He is a six
footer, with huge, broad shoulders,
and a loud speaker, with ideas of the
Senate and various things. Begin
ming a school teacher, he went to the
war as a Colonel to start with, and in
one year he had been promoted as
United States Consul at Vera Cruz.
He has been six times sent to Con-
gress from the new state he distin-
guishes; and the anecdote is current
of him that when the resolution pass
ed Congress to give all the members
back pay, he, who had been waiting
for years to build himself a new
house, ~telegraphed home: Begin to
haul sand at once" The sand was
hauled and the house started, but the
back pay was reconsidered, and then
the terrible message flashed over the
wires: Haul no more sand!' Thus
originated the expression so current
in the Northwest: ''He's got plenty
of sand in him.

FROM LADDONIA,


Correspondence of the Ledger.
LADDoNIA, February 14.-Many of
the farmers had commenced blowing
last week, but the late rain will stop
them for a few days. Mr.. Lane sold
his harness shop tobias. Gilliland, and
his residence to L. Smith. Mr.. Smith
and family will make valuable addi-
tiOns to our town. James Gilliland
sold his blacksmith shop to Mr.. Par
IRISH for two lots on Second street, and
will soon erect buildings on the same.
JOS. Smith is building the best dwell
ing in town. Mr.. Cummings will en-
gage in the mercantile business in
Lamar, Barton county, the first of
March. The lumber trade is a big
one in Laddonia. Mrs. Scanland has
moved into her new house. Mr.. Beal
is also building a new dwelling house.
Mr.. Doss and Miss Lulu Doss are
visiting in Bowling Green. Mrs. Hurd
is quite sick. Glib. Stone is also sick,
his recovery being doubtful. Prof.
Parker gives a concert at the hall at
the close of school, which promises
to be very entertaining. Rumor says
that one of Laddonia's fascinating
widows is to be married soon. The
Good Templar Lodge is talking OF
having a festival, and also of buving
an organ. The Laddonia Enterprise
came out last week, and received q
glad welcome. May it prove an en-
terprise indeed, both to the editor
and the town. The LEDGER is read
more than any one paper in Laddonia,
and all that don't take the LEDGER
borroW one from their next neighbor.
Several parties in town from Illinois
are looking for farms. If the farmers
should be prosperous this year, Lad.
donia and vicinity will grow great,
in population and business.

WORRYING WILDE.
Oscars Enemies, the Students, Again
Confront Him at Rochester-A
Black Bunthorne Appears
in the Aisle.

ROCHESTER, N. Y, Feb. S.-About
100 students of the Rochester univers-
lty, some of whom were seniors,
created a great disturbance at Oscar
Wilde's lecture in the Grand opera
mouse here last night. They occupied
seats mostly in the gallery, and during
the lecture they kept up a running fire
OF Kisses, groans and hootings, which
compelled the lecturer to pause more
than a dozen times, when the hullaba-
loo became so noisy that the aesthetics
voice could not be heard. He would
stop, fold his arms across his breast
and look calmly at his tormenters, but
he evidently thought discretion the
better part of valor, and made no
comments on the annoyance. When
the lecturer had proceeded about a
quartero of an hour an old darby dressed
with a swallow-tailed coat, one white
kid glove and a boquet Of flowers as
big as a peck measure, walked down
the centre aisle with many antics and
grimances, a la Bunthorne, and took
a front seat. This was the students
work, and the entrance of the darkey
was the signal for a great burst OF
applause, which ended in outlaws, cat
calls and other specimens of collegiate
amusement. A great many people
became disguised and left the hall.
Before the close of the lecture a DO
liceman attempted to eject one of the
disturbers, when a general gallery
melee ensued, which was made more
interesting by the turning off of the
gas. The managers of the house ther
sent for more policemen, but before
they arrived most of the students hat
left, and Oscar finished his lecture
before a few people who had remained
more to see the fun than to hear the
lecturer. The sunf1ower apostle is
very much wrought up by his recep'
ton.

THE NATIONAL BANKS.

The rctant majority and minority
reports of the T lse's Committee on
Linking and the Currency tend to
the r~e-opening of all mattrs over
watch that committee has jurisdiction.
The bill for extending the ational
Bank charters about to expir, brought
: forward by the majority reort, only
provides for their renewal y a two
thirds shareholders vote without allu-
SION OF any sort to such estrictions
. should hereafter be paced upon
them, and the minority rport, bent
on the extinguishment of these insti-
''l'lons, only substitutes treasury notes
for their issues.
lie views taken by both the major
It,y and minority of the committee are
equally short-sighted. There is not
the least likelihood that the day will
even dawn upon this country when
banks will not be a prominent compo-
nent Of its monetary systems. With
out the assistance of such institutions.
1t is almost impossible to imagine
10 @"ceptable and successful pro-
vision could be made FOL, tie u~atiC-'a
financial needs. The just complaints
that have been made to the present
laws regulating banks have their origin
in their abuse of privileges granted
them, and the grasping and monopo-
lning disposition evinced by them.
Not satisfied with the high rate Of in
tercst allowed them, they have sought
to escape taxation: not content with
being allowed to participate in cur
re,1cy making, they have aimed to
mopopolize the entire circulation !;
u~porateful that their assets were APP
nreciated from a paper to a coin basis,
they strove to raise them to an exclu-
sively gold standard, forgetful that
unaided by government they would
have been unable to have obtained
enounh of that metal to have kept
their notes at par had they been al
l,wcd to substitute them for green
backs and silver. 1t is, therefore,
the orasping and monopolizing aims
IF the banks that must be guarded
against. Dot' ~sjpgularly enough
,i,ere is no provision Of that sort in
either of the reports alluded to.
Taken together they present to Con-
DRESS choice between perpetuating
b,pksas they are, or legislating them
ont ofexistence entirely, and it will
he veg unfortunate for all the inter-
ests ipvofved if Congress confines
.;tsetp the considerable of eithe' Or
