no Truth In Recent Sensational Runners
LONDON. June 22.-Rumors have
been current OF late that Mr.. Parneh
and Mrs. O'Shea were soon to be mar
ried. A correspondent sought Mr..
Parnell to obtain an authoritative
statement. Mr.. Parnell was found
seated on q pleasant terrace overlook
ing the river and surrounded by a gay
group OF ladies, his guests. The table
around which the party were disposed
was loaded with delicacies appropriate
to the hot weather, and the scene spread
out along the water side was bright and
attractive.
Mr.. P8rneu seemed to be enjoying
himself thoroughly, and his looks indi-
Gated that he was in excellent health.
He is more robust and more active
than for years past. He granted few
moments interview with the CORES
pondent, stepping aside to talk in pri-
vate. When interrogated as to
the rumorS of his approach
ing marriage he betrayed some
annoyance at the circulation Of such re-
ports and assured his visitor that they
were utterly untrue. He did not wish
to discuss the matter any further than
to say that so far as the statement that
he was to marry Mrs. O'Shea soon was
concerned ii was without an atom of
foundation.
To the intimatien that this Left the
question as to his. remoter intentions

TO GE1' ROADS

The lligginsville Advance attacks
the county court for taking steps
towards improving the Lexington and
Wellington wagon road, claiming that
the court is spending more money ON
roads running into Lexington than ON
those of the other sections of the
county.
OF the merits of this charge the IN
TELLIGENCER knows nothing. II may
he true. II may he true hecausc there
are more roads leading into Lexington
than into any other town in the county.
These roads are old, much worn aud
lay across ridges of very friablc soils.
Then again the charge may not he
sustained by the facts. Elsewhere the
INTELLIGENCER presents a statement of
all monies appropriated for road and
bridge making since The first of last
February, and the reader will observe
that as equitable Il distribution rs can
well he made has been made
The INTELLIGENCER believes it has
been the policy of the court to respond
to every call for funds to build and
repair bridges and roads to the best of
its ability.
But more work must be done. 1t is
of n nature that n only be done in
n locality at a time. Let all friends
of road work seek To assist all legiti-
mate and reasonable effort at road i'm
provement. Otherwise, if each section
goes to kicking because it didn't receive
the first call, nothing at all can be
accomplished. To get good roads we
must all pull together.

The Columbia Statesman referring
to the lNTELLIGENCER's statement con
corning the sentiments of the demo-
cratic editors at the st. Louis
ton, says:
The editor of the INTELIIGENCER
was not present at the editors conyen-
ton, but we were, and know he is mis-
taken. The Republic detailed reporters
to interview the editors, and on the
10th it said: .'On the question of
presidential preference there seems to
he practically II unanimous sentiment,
with a few exceptions, among the dem
ocrats that Cleveland ought to and will
be the democratic nominee, while the
republicans with almost equal unanim-
ity, favor Blaine"
Begging the Statesman's pardon, the
editor of the INTELLIGENCER was in st.
Louis while the editorial association
was in session and he mingled quite
freely with the boys.
The INTELLIGENCER knows that the
st. Louis Republic detailed a corps of
reporters to interview the editors, and
knows that it said in reference to these
interviews: "On the question of presi-
dental preference there seems to be
practically q unanimous sentiment with
few exceptions among the democrats
that Cleveland ought to and will be the
democratic nominee"
But the INTELLIGENCER has n way
of not taking everything the Republic
says as gospel truth and took the pre-
caution of reading what the editors
were alleged to have said. Only
twenty-one expressions of democratic
editors were obtained. OF these, ten
were for Mr.. Cleveland's nomination,
or believe he will be nominated. The
others, and quite a large number who
were not reported in the Republic were
for a western man, because they want a
man who is for silver coinage; n who
gets his ideas from the wants of the
people and not from Wall street; one
who believes in the constitutional rights
of the masses, and not in the domina-
ton of the money power.
The INTELLIGENCER expects to sup
port the nominee of the national demo-
cratic convention, but it will support
no man for the nomination who is not
heart and soul with the democracy of
the south and west on the currency
question.
This question has become funda-
mental. 1t is a constitutional one.
1t is one that will not down at any
mans bidding. This country is not
ready financially or commercially for
monometalism. 1t is not ready yet,
no more than it was IN the days of
Andrew Jackson, for the short harness
of q national bank oligarchy. More
over this is a democratic question, and
the INTELLlGENCER regrets that n man
so prominent in democratic councils
as Mr.. Cleveland once was, should hold
a position against his party upon it.
II regrets moreover to see an attempt
being constantly made by leading
daily papers and their country follow
ing to impose upon the people by a
false statement.
The Republics own published inter
views did not sustain its statement
were practically unanimous for Cleve-
land. Ten out of twenty-one is not
practically unanimous, as the erudite
editor of the Statesman is well aware.

A WORTHY OBJECT.

At the meeting of the survivors
of the battle and siege Of Lexington
last week, i~nitiatory steps were taken
to secure a portion of the old battle
ground for a monument to the memory
of the men who fell there. The cause
is a good one. 1t is m in which the
citizens of Lexington, state of Missouri
and government at Washington should
unite. The ground lying north of the
college and water tower should be pur-
chased, converted into a beautiful park
and be surmounted by a monument, as
handsome as could well be built.
The next meeting will be held Sept G,
1892, by which time it is hoped the
association will be ready to lay the
corner stone for the monument.
