Representative Clark. of Audrain
county, who made his maiden
speech last Thursday, Is accredited
the richest member of the Legls-

Mexico, and owns a magnificent
farm Of $500 acres, stocked with
blooded horses and cattle in droves.
He is of medium height, wears n
full beard, dresses unostentatiously,
and is liked by everybody. Mr..
Clark is the champion of a bill APP
propriating a considerable sum of
money for the agricultural farm at
Columbia, and it Is conceded that
if anybody can save that lettering
institution Representative Clark Is
the man. The weight of his ex-
p~erience, wealth and popularity
is not to DE sneezed at, and Rep

prejudice against that farm, by the
way, is very strong, and the conf

ment would Gil respectable

The above errs in regard to
Clark's attitude toward the State

TIE removal of Postmaster

ment received by ex-Postmaster
Saunders at the hands OF President

out and it was clearly understood
in political circles here and at

ahould be allowed to do the same,

elected or not. This fact is known
to the Republicans of Mexico and

wear on, as Beatty will surely
