Poor Old Fulton.

We see by the Fulton papers that
a high fence has been placed around
the Orphan School of that place.
The fence has been erected to pro-
tect, the inmates of that institution,
as the following from the paper re-
ferred to shows:
"Have you noticed thai high
fence around the north, south and
west sides of the Orphan School?
There is one there, and the causes
that led to its being built is a dis
grace to the young men-or boys
rather-who caused it. Last year
the school was annoyed in every con-
ceivable way, at the college as well
as going to and from church and
while out for exercise. We had
nothing to say last year, but VIZ pro-
pose to have a little something to
say this year, if the annoyance
is repeated. That school was built
for a class of girls who cannot afford
to go where they want to and they
should have a chance to enjoy the
benefits of it. If the pupils invite
these annoyances, send them home.
One thing must stop, and that is the
carvings on that are a disgrace to
the town and people who donated
their money to build the school,"

AN ORDER FOR PROTECTION.
Farmers In Every School District
Should Organize an Anti.HOrse
Thief association.

Correspondence OF the Ledger.
RUSH HILL, Mo-, Sept. 5.-As
the objects of the order of Anti.
Horse Thief Association isnot under.
stood by many OF our people,
thought it would be best for the
people and the order to state the OBJ.
iects of the order. 1t is believed by
many that it is only a mob or vigi'
lance committee, banded together by
solemn ties for the protection of oul
horses, and hat when. a thief is
caught he is strung up to the firsi
limb that is found. AS to mob VIC.
lence the idea is wrong. The object
of the order is to naturally protect
our property, as theft is not the
only crime by any means. Oul
families need our protection; oul
wives and daughters are exposed te
insult and injury every day and oul
first duty is to protect them; and
the object of punishment is not as
much by our order as to deter evil
doors of all kinds from coming into
our midst. | believe that there ought
to be an order in every school dis
trict in the county and thus depend
upon ourselves more and the law
less. The order could assist the
officers of the Law in hunting down
criminals and see that Justice is
melted out to them. 1t is a rare case
where mob violence would be tolerat.
cd by our order, but tits we'll known
and beyond question that the law
as it is administered in our land is
very slow to convict and in many
cases provides for the escape from
justice of many men who ought to be
hung. The criminal lawyer, If his
client has any money or friends, can,
through pretended causes, wear out
any case, even that of willful murder.
He can and does find plenty Of
technicalities; absent witnesses, OF
something else hat is deemed legal
anything hat will cause delay,
until the excitement dies out and
witnesses either die OF move away
Then, if the criminal is convicted, il
is only a short term in the peniten.
tiary at most and the example has
lost its effect, as the crime was al
most forgotten. I hope this explana.
ton will be sufficient and that the
good people of Audrain county will
band themselves together in sub-or.
ders and make Audrain the banner
county that is represented in the
state and national orders.
Any information wanted as to how
to organize will be given by calling
on me. Respectfully,
S. E. KENDALL,
Secretary No. 1S1 A. H A.
