A Ruliet In the Rrain.

FULTON, Mo-, Nov. 10.-Jehn r.
Nichols, a well-to-do farmer who
lives three miles southwest of Fulton,
committed suicide this evening by
shooting himself with pistol. Mr.
Nichols was in Fulton to-day on bus
mess, and left about 4 o'clock for
home. While here no one noticed
anything wrong with him, as he went
about his business as usual. He ar
rived at home about 5 o'clock and
soon afterward his wife heard pistol
shot at the barn. Not knowing what
it meant, she went out 10 see, and to
her great horror found that her hus-
band had gone into the barn loft and
shot himself. He was lying on the
barn floor with the blood gushing
profusely from wound just over the
right eye, aud the pistol with which
the deed was committed by his side.
He was about 40 years old, and leaves
a widow and four children.

"W0RDs AND EGGS.
Prof. % Seett and the Junior Editor.
From the I.addonia Herald.


In the first place we ask who is this
man Scott? In answer to this we
will say that he is crank who claims
to hail from Warsaw, No., and who
claims to be a phrenologist, but
knows no more about that science
than q hog does about Sunday. He
says in letter to the Mexico LEDGER
from Curryville that the true reason
of his being written up in the Herald
last week as he was, was because he
made public examination of ye
juniors head and said we are every
stubborn You hit it, Scott, ON that
point. He also says he did not use
enough "flattery" towards us. Per-
haps you did not, but you used too
much slang, vulgarity and indecent
language; language that was unbe-
coming gentleman, but, perhaps,
language that suits all such cranks as
you. Yes, Scott, We used a ''five-
cent complimentary but not, howev-
er, till you had begged and apologiz-
ed for the language you had used to
certain ones OF your audience the
night before. Yes, Scott, We do
want to do all we can for the town
and that's why We exposed you as q
professional crank and squirt of all
creation; the fakir of nickles and
dimes. He also says he believes we,
with few others, threw the eggs al
him as he got on the train. Well,
you can mark it down that we would
have been there, and would have
thrown the first egg if we had known
anything about it. There is only one
thing we regret and that Is the boys
did not let us know until it was all
over. He also says, admitting l was
crank, those roughs are killing their
town by their heathen ways" "Hon-
esty is the best policy" so we give
you credit for owning you are q
crank. While we hardly approve
of the egging, we give the boys
credit for ridding the town of such
a nuisance and hope We will never be
bothered with you agsin Or any one
of your stripe.

NsSnOWed Under."

To the Editor of the Ledger.
MEXICO, Mo-, Nov. 13.-As the
election is over and the Prohibition
lists so deeply showed under that it
will take several "meiting" days to
uncover the tallest among them, the
question for the consideration of the
members elect of the Thirty-fourth
General Assembly is whether the
subject of submitting Prohibition
amendment should be entertained at
all. Taking the vote in the late cleo
ton as guide for the Legislature
it would seem that it is too paltry
and insignificant to claim for a mo-
ment the serious consideration of
that body. Out of vote of nearly
four hundred and fifty thousand cast
at the late election, there appears
only about six thousand voters in the
state of Missouri who seriously de-
sire the adoption of prohibitory
amendment. Divide this by two, for
at least three thousand of these are
salaried agitators, and are doing bet
ter financially than in any other voca-
ton they ever followed, and hence
are moved in this advocacy of prohi-
bition solely and exclusively by self
interest, and you have only about
three thousand voters in a voting
population of nearly half million
who sincerely desire prohibition.
Speaking for myself, however, l
sincerely hope that the Legislature
will submit the amendment, but
want it submitted fairly and squarely
so that the taxpayers of Missouri
may vote intelligently upon the prop.
osition, and that can only be done by
submitting the question of compensa
ton along with prohibition. Let the
tail swing the dog, for if Prohibition
should be adopted the courts, step.
ping to the front, say you will have
to take the tail whether you want il
or not.
This is the only faii and intelligen
way to settle this question, and b,
submitting both these qustions il
one for the people to vote upon, ever,
voter when he deposits his ballo
knows just what he is doing.

The coming national currency is to
be gold and silver coin and Govern
ment paper, and nothing else. Bank
notes have had their day, and must
disappear with other obsolete contri-
vances. Even Government paper
will have to be reduced TO the elegant
simplicity of legal tender notes, and
the present anomalous gold certifi-
Gates and silver certificates will have
to be Withdrawn. The Government
promise to pay coin, expressed on q
legal tender note, is as good as the
coin itself, and if anybody is not sat-
isfied with it, let him take the coin
into his own keeping. 1t is ridicu-
lous for the nation to act as safe
deposit company for people who dis
trust its plain promises to pay.

Evil of IndOrsing.

/ affirm, says Judge Waldo Brown,
in the Boston Traueler, that the sys-
tenn of indorsing is all wrong, and
should be utterly abolished. l be-
lieve it has been the financial ruin
of more men than. perhaps. all other
causes. / think that our young men
especially should study the matter
carefully in all its bearings, and
adopt some settled policy to govern
their conduct, SO as to be ready to
answer the man who asks them to sign
his note. What responsibility does
one assume when he indorses note
Simply this: He is held for the pay
ment of the amount in full, principal
and interest, Il the maker of tie
note, through misfortune, misman-
agement, or rascality, fails to pay it.
Notice, the indorser assumes all the
responsibility. with no voice in the
management of the business and nc
share in the profits of the transaction,
if it proves profitable; but with Ger,
tainty of loss if, for any of the rea-
sons stated, the principal fails tc
pay the note.

From the Boston Herald.

Mrs. Cleveland is not seeing 30
many visitors as formerly, and these
only by appointment. She rides out
nearly every day. A young lady who
has been in the habit of calling upon
her tells me that there is beginning
to be a little air Of mystery about
the domestic life Of the White House
and that even the ladies Of the Cabi-
net wear far-away look and speak
in an indefinite way when asked about
her, which may, perhsps, be a gentle
way of limiting that too many ques-
lions should not be asked, and the
life Of the family in the White House
Is entitled TO the same protcc-
ton from impertinent inquiry
that belongs 10 any other fami-
ly. At the same time, the kind
ness of the public interest in the well
fare Of bis household can hardly be
1. source Of real annoyance to the
President. II Mrs. Cleveland does
not appear in public for time, II
need not be assumed that she remains
ut home merely 10 avoid meeting Jeh
Davis daughter at Richmond, or be-
cause she does not approve OF tho
erection Of the statue OF Liberty In
New York harbor.

An impression has for some tir

An impression has for some time
prevailed in certain quarters that the
Hon. D. H. Mcintyre would be can
didate for the speakership, and a
number of papers have spoken ia
vorably of his candidacy. Upon the
authority of the gentleman himself,
we now state that Gen. Mcintyre is
not and will not be q candidate for
that position. While his ability and
prominence naturally attracted atten
ton to him as a fit man for presiding
officer, he has definitely determined
not to permit his name to be used
preferring to serve his constituency

Horses Dying.

Hundreds of horses in this part of
Missouri have died within the past
few weeks. The LEDGER, to some
extent, has Investigated the cause,
and we think have found it. Stop
feeding corn-fodder to your horses
and you will have no trouble. S. X.
Gilpin, who lives just west Of Mexi-
co, called on us to-day and brought
some corn-tassels, and on examina-
ton we find them full of worms.
Several horses have died near Gilpin's
as we'll as in other parts of the coun-
ty. All the horses which have died
had been fed more or less of corn
fodder. We think there is no doubt
but what the worms in the tassels OF
the corn-fodder are at the bottom OF
all the trouble.

Fifty Million Hopes and Prayers VIII
60 Up for Mrs. Cleveland.

FROM the bhtmOre Amefichu. 4N
1t is still problem whether Mrs.
Cleveland will enter the social world
in this city this season or not. From
tie ladies Of the household come re-
ports that she will not. They say
that, instead Of entertaining gay
throngs Of visitors at receptions, she
will be singing pretty little nursery
lullabys. The ladies Of this city
have all taken the greatest interest
in coming events, and those who are
in position TO know say most dccided-
ly that Mrs. Cleveland will not enter
society. A great deal Of shopping
has been done Of late by the ladies
Of the White House, but il is said
that very little evening costume ma
terial has been bought II has been
more of diminutive nature.

Look Ont, Girls (!

We would call the attention of tie
young ladies of Mexico to the fact
that they are standing on the very
brink Of a terrible abyss. In fact,
it looks as though we could almost
see one of their dainty feet over the
precipice, and almost in the grave, so
to speak. Prompt action IS neces-
sary to avert the calamity. The fact
is that at least Is of Mexico's mar
riageable men are laying wagers of
from 81 to SO, 900 that they will not
be married within from l to 10 years.
The young ladies can see at glance
the result of this action. They should
meet, strike, and, if possible, declare
''glrlcott.' We will furnish them all
the information they want.

Cleveland and the Party.
From the New York World.

Has Mr.. Cleveland strengthened
himself with his party2 The very
things which have disappointed many
Republicans favorably, and the very
reasons which commend the President
to the Republican voters and win for
him the approval of the moneyed in
terests, tend to disappoint large
numbers Of Democrats. We do not
refer to the political class or to the
oflice-seekers, but to men who are
Democrats upon principle, who be-
lieve that Democracy should be
something positively different from
Republicanism, and who are disap-
pointed because the Administration
is not more positively and even ag-
gresslvely Democratic. The actual
results of the change do not seem to
them commensurate with the hercn-
lean effort which it cost to secure
the change, nor with the expectations
had in regard to it.
Three-fourths of the offices are still
in possession of the Republicans
many rascals have been turned out
the "opening of the books has not
been followed by investigation of the
past and the disclosures of startling
dishonesty which it is believed that a
thorough examination would dis
close; and, in brief, little has been
done that was promised and less of
what was expected. People COM
plain that the President has had no
fixed policy, but has been variable
and fiuctuating. He has sub-let his
financial policy to Wall street.
He has treated as equally deserving
of his favor the men who supported
and those who opposed an effort to
redeem the party's pledge to ''revise
the tariff in a spirit of fairness to all
interests" as q means of abating
needless war taxes and preventing
gigantic surplus. These are but few
of the complaints made against Mr..
Cleveland by thinking, intelligent,
independent Democrats. We are
not now considering their justice.
We simply note that they exist.
The very fact that the Mugwump
press lauds him in about the proper
ton that it abuses the Democratic
party prejudices many Democrats
against him. ''How can he be a
Democrat" they ask, "while seeking
adulation at the expense Of his par
ty?" However strong the President
may be in Galveston or Little Rock,
in this state it is certain that the
most active element of the party, out
side Of the office holding and specially
. favored class, is not better pleased
with Mr.. Cleveland's course than
when SO many of its members ac-
quiesced unwillingly in his candidacy.
and others, in dangerous numbers,
, declined to vote for him.
