FIRE r. LAW.
Bluffing and BulldOzing a Thing
of the Past-The New Law
Fills a Long Felt Want.

The new fire insurance law is as
follows:
Section $780,. page 14O1, of the
Revised Statutes of Missouri, OF
iSS9-In all suits brought upon
policies of insurance against loss
or damage by fire hereafter issued
or renewed, the defendant shall
not be permitted to deny that the
property insured thereby was worth
at the time of the issuing OF the
policy the full amount insured
therein on said property; and In
case of total loss of the property
insured, the measure of damage
shall be the amount for which the
same was insured, less whatever
depreciation in value, below the
amount for which the property is
insured, the property may have
sustained between the time of is
suing the policy and the time Of
the loss, and the burden of prov
ing such depreciation shall be upon
the defendant; and in case the
whole property insured, ascertain
ed in the manner hereinafter pre-
scribed, which the part injured or
destroyed bears to the whole prop
erty insured.

LADDONIA

Correspondence of the Ledger.
LADDoNIA, Sept. 2, 189O.-The
preaching at the Christian Church
still continues. There has been
about 80 additions to the church.
Large crowds attend, and some
nights many 60 away, not finding
room in the house.
We attended the dedication OF
the Prairie View Church, which is
about s miles northwes! of here.
Elder Hughes, of Kansas City,
preached two able sermons. A well
drilled choir rendered excellent
music. The church is neatly fin
ishsd, out of debt, and a good men,
bership to sustain it. The ladies
of the neighborhood prepared
enough dinner to feed twice the
number. We had the pleasure of
eating with Mrs. George Day, and
a more plentiful and better cooked
dinner we never saw. The corn in
that vicinity is very good. We
stopped at Mr.. Dick Shells, and
he said he thought the crops were
as good, if not better, than last
year.
Mr.. Wilson and family will go
to Louisiana to reside.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Lipplncott
will locate here.

In MemOriam.

The death of Mrs. Mary A. Boaz
occurred IN this city on Saturday
morning, Aug. 25th, at 8 O'Clock.
She was born Sept. oath, 1915, in
Buckingham county, Va. She was
married to David P. Boaz May 22d,
1889. Eight children were born to
them, six of whom survive. Mrs.
Boaz united with the Christian
Church In Mexico over 80 years ago
and continued in that faith to the
end of her life. She was for several
years an invalid unable to leave
her home. During this long period
she was tenderly and afectionately
cared for by her daughter, Mamie.
When it became evident that the
time of her departure was at hand,
her children were summoned and
all gathered around her bedside to
say farewell. "She died in the
faith, not having received the prom
Uses; but having seen them afar off
was persuaded of them and EN-.
braced them"

The C. II. Il Frank Crockett
mule colt show which took place at
their residence on last Friday was
attended by a large number by
spectators. The premiums were
the season of 1891 for the best
horse and mare colt the get oftheir
fine jack, Bill Bass. The follow
ing persons showed colts: T. M.
Ford, George Throckmorton, L. K.
Crockett, Thomas Burns, L. A.
Ford, Thad Threlkeld, w. A.
Sharp, Orval Lundy, Albert Lun-
dy, Temple Wayne, C. T. Howard,
Richard Throckmorton and others
whose names we failed to get. The
first ring was for mare colts and it
was hard to tell just where the
premium would go, but after care
full examination judges W. B.
Wright, Porter Tinsiey and ]. B.
Woolery awarded first premium to
Richard Throckmorton and Albert
Lundy the second.
Next came the ring of horse colts;
this ring vas close and hard to
down. The judges looked at each
colt the second round and after
careful deliberation awarded first
premium to Orval Lundy and
second to Temple Wayne. All
the colts we're good ones but the
Lundy boys had the dandies-good
heighth, good form, and they show
ed they had been well cared for.
The decisions rendered by the
judges were in harmony with the
entire crowd. PUELLA.

Mr.. James G.. Blaine's newly
coined word for tariff reduction,
and the position he has taken
against the Mckinley bill, is crea-
ting quite a disturbance in the Re-
publican party and its managers,
as we'll as the administration, are
becoming alarmed at the impend-
ing situation. 1t is said that if the
President signs the bill in Its pres
ent shape, Mr.. Blaine will with
draw from the Cabinet, as he is
pledged to the opening up of trade
relations with the South and Cen.
trail American States. Should he
be permitted to do so, he would
become a strong presidential posi-
bility, which Mr.. Harrison cannot
afford while he poses for a second
term.
President Harrison and many
leading Republicans have no great
love for Senator Quay, since his
persistent refusal TO resign the
Craftsmanship of the National Com
mittee. They are satisfied that he
has become a dead weight to the

all information you may desire.
Now, about the track; We here
think that it is the right idea for a
track;only one turn, and that much
larger than the ordinary track and
your horses all leave the wire going
straight away for one-third of a
mile before coming to the turn, so
you see there is no excuse for one
driver running into another. There
is no advantage in positions until
the turn Is reached and then the
horses are usually somewhat scat
tered so there is no chance for one
running into another. This kind
of a track must be fast and will, l
believe, be adopted by a great many
associations In the future. I in
close programme of our fall meet
ing. Come over and see our track
at the meeting. Respectfully,

qa Perhaps never in the his
3Mntory of Beaver Dam was
fWSf there an event chronicled
that surpassed the lawn soirss at
the residence of Mrs. Mart Ford on
the evening of August 81. On our
way, as we drove over the descent,
at a distance of a half mile, we
could count every tree and SHRUB
in the lawn of four acres, which
was made as light as day by
Chinese lanterns; and as we got
nearer we could see that the front
and side gates each contained an
arch of evergreens. As we came
up in front we noticed a large circle
enclosed by canvas in the center of
which were six large evergreen
trees containing lights. Near the
center of this circle the tables were
erected in the form OF a cross 1t
was indeed a beauty-nicely dec
Grated with grasses and an endless
variety of choice flowers, artistic
ally trimmed cakes, baskets OF
grapes, etc. As we looked upon
the five hundred invited guests az
they were promenading back and
forth upon the lawn, we thought it
a sight rarely every seen at an
evening party. This multitude Of
joyful people came from various
parts, Mexico furnishing quite q
delegation, also Fulton, Columbia,
C~entralia, Auxvasse, McCredie,
Benton City and Concord. At an
appropriate hour the invited guests
began to arrive and at 1920 sup.
per was announced, sixty people
taking their places around the
tables at once. There seemed te
be no end to the good catholicism
abundance of everything. Every.
body left at a late hour amid con
gratulations and best wishes to the
committee for the hospitable way
in which they had been entertain
ed. Many regrets were made by
the committee and others on &C
count of the illness of Robert Cal
houn, who was one of the commit
tee and could not be present. Tit

at Wanamaker, Saline county, Mo-:
WHEREAS, In the judgment Of
this Farmers and LabOrers' Union
the conditions under which the
masses of the people are now labor
ing are destructive of prosperity
and conspire to render all lauda-
BILE enterprise useless and to de-
prive all honest industry of Just re-
ward; and,
WHEREAS, chief among the agen-
cies productive of these conditions
is the embodiment of the protect
i've tariff principle into laws neces-
sarily favoring the few at the ex-
pense of the many, and the further
class legislation which has struck
down one of our coin metals there
by destroying a character of money
peculiarly the peoples; and,
WHEREAS, this farmers and
Laborers' Union, believing the
correction of those leading evils
would open up the avenues TO
prosperity long efectually blocked
by their baneful effects, and believ-
ing r. P. Bland, by his long and
honorable record in Congress ,pecu-
liarly a representative of our views,

Resolved, That in the judgmen,
of this Farmers and Laborers'
Union the Endorsement of the fol

IT IS a shame and disgrace the
way the Democratic party is being
butchered in the Sth and 9th Dis
tricts of Missouri. A few cheap
politicians are apparently having
their own way, and as a result the
Republicans will again carry these
districts. 1t looks to the LEDGER
As though the State Democratic
Committee should interfere and
save the districts. The complex
ion of the next House of Congress
may depend on such an action.
The districts are both Democratic
when delivered from the tolls of
the grog-shop gang who are now in
control.
