SENATOR VESTS SPEECH.

The senute, last Wednesday, having
under consideration the bill granting
pensions to ex-soIdiers and sailors
who are incapacitated for the perform
ance of labor, and PROVIDING for pen
siOns to dependent relatives of deceased
soldiers and sailors, Mr.. Wilson, of
Iowa. made n speech which by It's IN
nuendoes and i~nsinuations aroused
Senator Vest, who replied to him in Il
speech OF such eloquence and vigor
that il attracted much attention al the
capital.
Mr.. Vest said that he had o had
the slightest idea when he spoke TO
Mr.. Wilson's amendment, OF producing
the burst of patriotic, fervid e]lOquence

a~lmshouses and veteran soldiers. IN
the state of Missouri there were no
federal soldiers In ~almshouses, and he
was proud to say that there were no
confederate soldiers In a~lmshouses,
either. When Gen. Lee surrendered at
AppomattOx there were but 1000 mus
kets left OF that splendid army which
had faced the world in arms, ami
which had been battered and beaten
back by overwhelming numbers. Out

one OF the most beneticent of the elee-
mOsynary institutions OF the state WAS
destroyed by fire last Monday night,

large number OF unfOrlunates who were
therein sheltered and taught.
At a public meeting on Tuesday, over
whichthe Rev. w II. Marquiss presided.
the following was adopted :-"lt is. with
unfeigned regret that we have witnessed
the calamity that has befallen the state
and an unfortunate class of our fellow
citizens, in the destruction of the insti-
tuition for the education of the deaf and

LAW AND ORDER

Kansas City has been cursed with
ow resorts usually known as dives
where whisky is sold in and out of
season, legally and illegally, where
gambling and other denominations are
practiced, and which are nurseries for
vice and crime.
The frequency of assaults aud other
crimes OF violence of late have enraged
the law- abiding people Of the city, and
a law and order league has been or
ganiHed tor the purpose OF seeing that
the laws shall be enforced. At n meet
ing, last Tuesday, Judge Henry and
DIR. Thompson made very strong and
sensible speeches, which will do much
to awake tbs citizens themselves to Il
realization of their duties.
The county court also has come to
the rescue, aud has issued II peremptory
order, to the effect, that hereafter any
saloon which violates any of the laws,
but especially the Sunday law, even by
the opening of Il back door, shall Tor
felt its license and lot be granted a
license again under any circumstances.
This order has had n good effect, and
numbers of places which have hereto
fore done their princi pal business OH
Sunday, have since then closed in fact
as well as In name.
This action of the Jackson county
court might well be initiated by tho
court In this county. We hear il said
that the Sunday law ID disregarded in
Lexington. Evidences of the fact
are sometimes seen upon the streets.
The city council because OF excuses
has ordered an ordinance to be pre-
pared to be submitted at the uext meet
ing causing saloons to be closed at IL
p. IN. 1t will, no doubt, be
adopted.
Nothing could be more foolish than
suppose because the people OF Lex
and Lafayette county did not
like, and consequently rejected the
Wood law, that they approve Of dis
obedience to the laws now on the
books, or that they will condone
4 lax enforcement thereof.

(Which of the gentlemen named
would be the most likely TO be elect
ed?"
"Neither one of them. IL il my opin-
ion you are asking now and my opinion
is that Mr.. Blaine's declination has
practically settled this presidential cleo
ton three months before the holding of
a national convention"
"Do You mean that Mr.. Blaine's
friends will not support any other can
didate as cordially AZ they would Mr..
BlaiHeT
81 mean nothing of the kind. MIR.
Blaine's friends in the republican party
are men who always support the party |

enough to defeat Mr.. Cleveland. TO
Cleveland the republicans should

Mr.. Blaine was that man and the only
the republicans can name who
could certainly have controlled large
blocks OF votes heretofore given to the
democratic party-nOtably the solid

vote, beside being by far
Lhe strongest for such states as Virginia,

LOOK HERE, GENTLEMEN.

Onr people are very quiescent
Probably they are so well satisfied
with things as they are that they don't
care for more people, o factories,
more miners, more money and greater
prosperity.
When the Santa Fe was projecting
its Chicago route from Kansas City
they were implored to visit the officers
and try to secure the bridge for this
place. They let it pass, and did moth
ing; but the Santa Fe built, and built
elsewhere. 1t Is sorry now, we are
assured and believe, that it did not
build it's bridge at Lexington.
Now II intends to build from it's
Colorado road to connect with its st.
Joseph road, to secure II short line
from that place TO st. LOUIS. This, of
course, mean a bridge across the Mis-
souri, river, and It is sure to be cOn-
structed because ii Is absolutely ueces-
sary to the execution of the proposed
pau, Dul II 10 IOt ny any Cou Y
tain that 1t will build by way of Lex
ington. We may wake up some fine
morning to fluid that they have chosen
another route.
Persons are now hard ut work trying
to prove that other routes will be
better and more advantageous. If we
want the road and bridge 1t is our
business to show, which can easily
enough be done il it is attended to,
but which fact will not demonstrate
itself, that this IS the best route. As
the preacher says, "Now Is the accepted
time" Delays are dangerous. We
earnestly urge the Business Association
to meet at once and take this matter
under consideration.
Another thing, writing letters on
such questions as this will do to intro
duce the subject, and to find where the
effort should be directed, but for the
real work nothing will do but personal
visits and actual demonstrations of
substantial benefits TO be deriv-
ed by the railroad. Mere rhet-
will not do. Vainglorious
boastings amount to nothing. Facts
are what are needed.
BY the way, wouldn't il be a good
idea to reorganize the Business Associ.
alton, and to get into its membership
men who will respond when called
upon, and act whenever the interests
IF Lexington are involved?
