An Indignant Community.

Correspondence of the Ledger.
RUSH HILL, Mo-, Oct. 81, 90
When the news reached here Sat
urday evening that Woolwine had
been held to the grand jury in the
pitiable sum of $500 for SO grave a
crime this community, who unani-
mously believe him guilty, became
indignant. The citizens here have
waited patiently that the law
should take it's course, but the
idea of turning a man loose charged
with such an atrocious crime with
such an insignificant bond is cal
culated to create fears that the blood
of law-abiding citizens will be stirred
up to take the law into their own
hands should he be turned loose on
that amount of bond. If this girl
had been of an aristocratic and
wealthy family this man, in all
probability, would have been strung
up without a trial. But this respect
able poor girl has been outraged and
her assailant is turned loose on such
an Insignificant bond. 1t is a dis
grace to any court in this civilized
age CITIZEN.

MATT QUAY has been sent for by
the National Republican Committee
to come to New York and give his
ideas in reference to the best way
for the Republicans to make their
fight during the rest of the cam
paign. Quay's idea is that New
York and Indiana are both going
Democratic. He favors buying up
n of the smaller states in order to
win.
ssIt's no use, gentlemen" said
Mr.. Quay. II he didn't $ those
exact words he conveyed that sense.
They've got New York. We've
got to offset them elsewhere.
Then he said how easy it was to
help along Elkins and his railroad
gangs in West Virginia, and how
some judicious work could be made
to tell in New Jersey and connec-
ticut. Senator Quay threw out hints
only. He took his final opinion
under adyisement and promised
that he would confer again to-mor-
row.

The situation in the Ninth Con-

isfactory to the Democratic State
Committee. The sores occasioned
by the Clark-Norton trouble have
not been entirely healed and re-
ports show that Clark is to be knitted
in some of the Democratic strong
holds. The district has only 1000
majority and if the scratching
reaches any extent Col. "Bill"
Morsey OF Warrenton, the Republi-

believes it is right on the tariff and

Talking of snakes said Rich
ard Manley, at the Lindells are-
minds me of an experience | had
last autumn among the mountains of
North Carolina, | had tramped
about all day making sketches and
collecting specimens for my herbar-
iun, and night found me a eonsid-
cradle distance from any house,
Tie weather was frosty and built a
Blk wood fire and rolling myself up
in my overeoat, lay down before it,
Toward morning the fire died down
and | grew chilly and awoke, l
started to rise for the purpose OF re-
plonishing the fire when | found "A
lag RATHER coiled on my bosom.
TIE motion awoke him and he
raised his head and put his vicious
rattle in motion. His head was
within ten inches of my face so l
concluded not to get up just then.
| closed my eyes and lay still as
death for what seemed to me an
age, then cautiously opened them,
His s~nakeship was asleep. With a
sudden bound | sprang to my feet,
throwing my unwelcome visitor
among the embers. Great Scott,
what a rumpus he did kick up!
Instead of trying to get out he show
ed fight and whipped the Goals and
ashes around at a lively rate. l
didn't enjoy the circus much, how
ever, because another snake was
springing his rattle in my immediate
neighborhood and | couldn't locate
hin. Jumped here and there and
stared about me, but all to no pur-
pose and I beganto wonder if in my
, sleep | had inadvertently swallowed
a rattler and he was getting up an
alarm in my internal economy.
Presently l caught sight of the crit
ter. He was hanging one third OF
his length out of my overcoat poke.
and looking for a good place to
plant his poison. You have seen
the lightning change artists at vari,
ETY. shows get out of their logging?
Well, they are not a marker to the
way l shucked that overcoat. l LET
the snake have it and went down
the mountain and sat on a gum
stump and shivered with cold and
apprehension until morning"
