TIE Potosi papers are much eXercls
ed over the REGISTERS account OF the
late mass meeting in Washington coun
ty, but they fail to state wherein SIN
gle misstatement was made. As stated
at the time the truthfulnesS OF our re

THE PotOsi independent characterizes
the REGISTERS account of the Wash
ington county mass meeting as ''an in
famous libel on our people and a base
misrepresentation of what transpired
on that occasion" 1t could in no event
be libel on your people, but it was a
square, truthful, honest report of the
manner in which your strikers and pol
iticians hoodooed your people out of
their desires. That is al. there is to it,
and all the lying you may do can not
change the facts. Your charge that
the editor of the REGISTER has any but
the kindliest feelings toward the citi-
zens of Washington county is too con-
temptible to call for reply. We notice
it merely to show to what depths you
descend in order to make other than
true showing of our opposition to Sam.
Byrns and the self-sufficient though
small following which would force him
upon the people whose trust he has
betrayed. But what makes you so
warm supporter of Sam. Byrns? lis
but few months since you were at
daggers' points with him, and he helped
establish paper for the avOwed pur-
pose of crushing out the Independent.
What has brought about your change
of heart? Is it admiration for his
espousal of the Pluck-me Store cause,
and his vote for and with the Hillites?
Perhaps-p-e-r-h-a-p-s!.

SAM BYRNs left st. Louis "Wednesday
for Washington and will reach there In
ample time to vote for the free coinage
of silver.-P0tOSi Democrat.
The foregoing is not correct. Sam.
Byrns reached st. Louis from Jefferson
county last Tuesday morning. Shortly
after his arrival he received telegram
from Speaker Crisp, urging him to
come to Washington at once. Did he
go? No, but remained in the city hav-
ing a good time and trying to repair his
broken fences. He left st. Louis
Thursday night for Chicago. Maybe
he will reach Washington after awhile,
but he doesn't seem to be in any hurry
at all.

THE GRANDEsT RING OF SADDLE
HORSES EVER sHONN IN
MISSOURI.
Every One a Model as to FERN and
Gait-Kentucky Didn't shew Up,
Although Invited.

AT noon Tuesday twelve of the
best saddle horses in America show
ed up in competition for the $500
premium offered for the best saddle
horse, mare or gelding. It was truly
a grand sight and one not to be seen
outside of Mexico in this State, ex-
cept possibly at st. Louis. This is the
largest single premium eve offered
by any association on this continent
and as might be expected it brought
only the best horses. Secretary
Glandon originated the idea, and al
though he met with some opposition
at first he carried his point and by
hard work was mainly instrumental
in making it the success it proved.
So difficult was it to distinguish be-
tween horses that one hour and a
half was consumed in making the
awards. Duluth, the winner of the
first, was ridden by VIM. Davis. of
Fulton, who always shows the ami
NAL he is handling off to advantage.
JOS. A. Potts, of this city, rode Ken
lucky Eagle, the winner of the Sec
ond string. Kentucky Eagle was
sold to Porter & Son by Mr.. Potts.
Jack Harrison rode his horse, Rex
Denmark, who was given third rib
bon. Kentucky Blue Eyes, owned
by c. F. Holmes, Kansas City, was
given fourth.
The judges were DR.. R. D. Tilton,
of Carlisle, KY; w. F. Miller, of
Millersburg, KY, and E. A. Myers,
Of Jerseyville, Ill. Following are
the entries:
Piedmont, L. NJ. Monsees, Smith

Inquiry.

The question of rebuilding the
Mexico Fire Brick Works was dis
c,Issed in our County F. Il l.. u.
and some action taken, but we were
not fully advised of all the surround
ing circumstances. OF this we are
fully persuaded, that the opposition
to this enterprise Is a direct thrust at
the laborers and farmers of Mexico
and the surrounding country. The
benefits of the trade and money
paid out here weekly extends to a
radius of 80 or 40 miles and the re-
suits of the removal of this institu-
ton will be seriously felt. We I'M
derstand that men have signed the
remonstrance who are in no wise in
lured by the dust or smoke. Now,
while the F. & l.. U. have taken
the ~initiatory step in this matter we
know we have the sympathy oil
hundreds of men and women outside
the order and We trust they will as
sist us in this matter. We call upon
the LEDGER to publish the names Of
the signers of the petition which is
to come before the City Council.
Hoping you may be able to do this
at an early date we are respectfully
