Chicago Iuter Ocean: The success

that the Southern wing of the party,

bost possible use Of their victory. IL
matters not that Mr.. Carlisle IL one of
the broadcast and ialrest men among

would like to do, but what the men
who have contributed In his election
may compel him 10 do. The conserva-

contest for the speakeship was
simply matter of diplo-
macy. He was bidding for votes,
and he secured them 10y concealing

to be the Democratic speaker of the

An EQUESTRIAN TURNS FARMER.
The Champion Bareback Rider Buys
the Black Place in st. Louis
County.
From the Globe-Eemocrat.

From the Globe-Eemoerat.
There Is none better known among
circus celebrities than James Robin
son, who has a reputation as a bare
back rider that extends as far as the
circus is known and loved. The
present season, for which Mr.. Robin
son is engaged to W. W. Cole, will
make the thirty-fourth in which he
has seen continuous service inside the
sawdust ring, and during this time,
unlike many of his associates in the
profession, he has acquired a COM
potency for himself and family. The
circus season never lasts for more
than six or eight months Of the year
and during the time in which the
shows are in winter quarters Mr..
Robinson has devoted himself to
farming upon the most improved
methods His property of 920 acres
in Audrain county, eight miles north
of Mexico, this State, has long borne
the reputation of being the finest i'm
proved farm in the State, and there
he has raised valuable blooded stock
and carried on farming operations
in q way to astonish his less thrifty
neighbors. Mr.. Robinson, however,
desired to live nearer this city, and
disposed of his Audrain county
property for $4,000, taking in ex.
change the W. L. Black place IN st.
Louis county, allowing $40, 900 fol
it. This place is situated a mile and
one-half from Baden and about one
mile from Jennings. The farm in
cludes sixty acres of land, and the
buildings are well adapted to the best
style of farming. The addition OF {
ring house in which to train and ex'
ercise his horses and keep himself
in practice will be the only move tina
Mr.. Robinson will at present make
in the way of building. He express
es himself greatly pleased with hi
new place, and expects to spend BIZ
] winters there and retire to it perma
nently when he gives up riding il
! public.

H SPEAKERSHIP.

There is evident desire in several
sections of the democratic party to
make the selection of a Speaker for
the House hinge upon whether free
traders Or proteetionists are in the
ascendency in the next congress. !,
Such . contest would be suicidal
to the democracy, and could not but
divide the representatives of that Or
g~anlzation at Washington upon doc
trines which have not been advocated
Or approved by that party, and be
Just such a mistake as its enemies
have predicted it would fall into pre-
viously to the presidential election.
The main object of the democracy
heretofore has been to conserve
liberty, and leave industry to
exert its powers as it pleased. The
greatest obstacle that has been en-
countered by it Is the taxation neces-
sary for modern government, which
not only imposes heavy personal bur-
dens, but lessons individual ability to
meet them. The constitution pro-
vides only two ways Of raising gov
ernmental revenues, the levying OF
duties and the imposition of direct
taxes. The democratic party has in
terpsed no objection to the latter
when national necessity rendered re-
sort to them unavoidable; but at the
same time it has always regarded
direct taxation as especially burden.
some and detrimental, and insisted
that levies of it ought to be temporary
and always to cease and be withdrawn
with the passing away of the neees'
sity that justified them. Furthermore
neither the so-called free trade mol
protection democrat favor increase Of
direct taxation, without which a fret
trade administration cannot be sup
ported. In fact, had the republicans
in congress seen fit to have wholly
abolished the internal revenue system
last winter, such action would have
received as large a democratic en-
dorsement as was given to the bill
materially reducing it.
In view of all this, and the furthel
fact that with the adjustment O.
direct taxation next winter it will b.
impossible to construct a sufficien
and judicious revenue tariff that viii
not impart to industry and enterprise
all the encouragement and protection
they have a right to expect, it is diff
cult to conceive why the democrat!
in congress should divide as FREE
traders and protectionists, Or hoV
that could be done without departur,
from democratic traditions. Certainl,
there is no necessity for such a diyis
ion, or the least occasion for the adop
ton of any other test in the selection
of a speaker than that of superio
fitness for the position.

The Moherly Monitor, speaking of
the gentlemen who are talking of
starting a wagon factory in Mexico,
says: "Mr. j. NJ. Williams of Renick
is, it is said, ready to take $4,000
stock IN q factory at Mexico. While
we should be 10th to part with Milt.
We may say that his success i'm the
past is sufficient earnest of his opera
tons for the future, and should he be
induced to go to that enterprising
place, Renick will have lost and Mex
leo gained a most excellent and en-
terprising citizen"

Correspondence of the Ledger.

correspondence OF the LSu&ef.
LADDoNIA, NO., April 23.-We
have been having a Virgins storm
for the past week, and the carpenters
have a hard time to keep the new
buildings standing, but so far they
have succeeded. Last Saturday was
one of the windy days, and houses
shook, the trees bowed, the people
went flying, and poor cattle and
horses and smaller animals lay down
and grabbed the short grass with
their teeth to keep from being waited
away by the summer breeze. This is
a cold and windy day, the thermome-
ter is most down to freezing point,
and the people that gathered greens
for dinner a few days ago have donned
their winter clothing, procured a sieve
and are now sitting the small mites
of coal that are scattered round from
the dirt to make fires with. The
bright little violets have dropped their
heads because they can't show their
spring costume, the farmer plants his
corn with his overcoat On, and mer-
chants and milliners SILVER when they
look at their big supply of spring and
summer goods ON hands. Such is
life. Old winter don't always die
when we want him to.
Mr.. C.. W. Alexander was ordained
as a Baptist minister last Sunday at
the Baptist church. Elder Rogers,
of Bowling Green, preached the ordi-
nation sermon, Rev. Sparks, of Fay
cite county, delivered the charges,
and Elder G.. B. Smith presented the
Bible to the candidate. The ceremo-
MES were beautiful and impressive,
and although the house was crowded
the best order prevailed. Rev. Starks
was for about three years principal of
La Grange College, and is a gentleman
Of high scholarly attainments.

day, but leaves to-day for the temper

The drummers say Laddonia is the

more, and a good mill is badly need
ed-don't forget that.

Coffin for q Kitchen.

Dropsy is generally fatal and sud.
den. A cas- has just come under
the notice of the editor of this paper
where a woman actually outgrew it,
or at least outlived it. In 1866, Mr.
Hamilton Hall was sheriff of Audrair
county, and had charge Of the county
poor farm. A colored woman named
"Big Sis,' was on the farm, and was
afflicted with dropsy. She was as
big as an elephant. Mr.. Hall was
going away for a few days, and ''Big
Sis" vas not expected to live a day.
No coffin could be bought big enough
to hold her, and he had one made.
"Big SIS did not die, but lives to.
day in South Mexico as hale and
hearty as any woman. She uses her
coffin for a summer kitchen.
