A FIGHT ON DALTON.
The Business Men Of ST. Louis Want
70 Name the Surveyor OF the
SPort-A Sensational Story
Forwarded to Cleveland.

Congressman Cobb and a large
proportion of the business men OF
St.Louis have endorsed Judge Speck
for Surveyor of the Port of st.
Louis. The two Senators, some of
the Congressman and the Stated em-
.,ocratic Central Committee have en-
dorsed Richard Dalton. The follow
ing from the st. Louis Globe Demo-
crat shows that there is going to be
a warm contest for this Office. The
Globe Democrat is a Republican
paper and when the following is
read this fact should be kept in
mind:
Strong opposition to Richard Dali
ton for Surveyor of the Port Of st.
Louis has developed, Some sensa-
tional information has been forward
ed to the President. 1t relates to the
circumstances under which Col. Dali
ton was given his endorsementfor the
place. st. Louis, it seems, is to fur

SENATOR VEsT, in a letter to the
Missouri members of Congress, has
expressed himself as opposed to
combining with anybody in the in
terest OF candidates for office, and
the st. Louis Republic Washington
correspondent referring to this mat
ter, says: aThis looks very much
as If it Would be q f~ree-for-all race in
Missouri, that there will be no COM
bine on the appointments, and that
every member Of the delegation as
well as the Senators, would be apt
to go to work and indorse their own
men and leave Mr.. Cleveland to
make his own selections, advised by
such information as win come to him

Mexico weekly ledger., 1893-03-23
REPEAL THEIaw.

The Legislature of Missouri should
be asked to repeal the vagrant law at
once. The law, as it now STANDS, is
vicious, intolerable, outrageous, and
should have been stricken from the
statute books long ago. The whip
ping post has been abolished, slav-
cry is a thing of the past and has
no advocates to-day, still we have on
our statute books a law authorizing
the sale of human beings, white or
black, for a stipulated length Of time.
When enforced the barbarity of this
law is easily understood and we think
the people of Mexico should take
concerted action in this matter and
call the attention of the Legislature
to this abominable law before it adj
journs. Vagrancy must be legislat-
ed against, but in order to result in
any good a new law in reference to
this matter should be made. In this
system of slavery there is every
chance for abuse and cruelty. While
the negro sold to-day secured a kind
master and one who will treat him
well, such may not always be the
result. When a white man is put
upon the block and sold as a vagrant
to a negro then the enormity of this
law, perhaps, would become appar-
ent to all. Such an event is posi-
BILE. Within the last month o white
man in this city narrowly escaped
being found guilty OF vagraney, and
it was publicly rumored that arrange
ments were being made by negroes
to buy him off the block. We con-
slider this law a disgrace to Missouri,
and the sooner it is blotted from the
statute books the better it will be for
our fair name.
One of Mexico's most prominent
attorneys has expressed himself as
confident that the law Is unconstitu-
tional and will be backed in a move
ment to test the matter by Mexico's
business men and citizens of the
county generally They will endeavor
to stop the sale advertised for Thurs
day.
Mexico weekly ledger., 1893-03-23

nish a test case under the Presidents
policy. Mr.. Cleveland recently an
nouneed with emphasis that he would
not be guided entirely by the recon-
mendations of Senators and Repre-
sentatives. He said he would con-
slider local sentiments as well in pas
sing upon candidates. The Missouri
Senators have united in recommend
ed Richard Dalton, of Rails County,
for Surveyor of the Port. They an
nounced at the recent conference of
the St. Louis delegation in Wash
ington that the place had been
promised to Mr.. Dalton and that
there was no use talking of any
other candidate. Issue has been
taken with the Senators by bust
ness men in st. Louis, who are
concerned in the conduct of the Of
flee. They claim that the interests of
the Government and of the importers
call for business. They have forward
ed to the. President a protest against
this appointment being made as the
eonsummation of a political bargain.
The information sent to the White
House sets forth in detail the deal by
which Col. Dalton has what appears
to be awalkeyer for the appointment.
1t is narrated that after the Demo-
cratic State ticket was nominated in
Missouri last summer, Dalton, by
reason of his failure to obtain the
nomination for Governor, felt very
sore. For some time it was doubtful
what course he would take. Under
these conditions negotiations we're
entered into, as the result of which
Dalton came out for the State ticket
and stumped the State. The Presi-
dent is informed that this was ac-
complished through a bargain. Dali
toms campaign expenses were paid,
and he was promised this appoint
ment in the event of Democratic sue
cess. In addition to these consid-
~erations, two checks for $500 each
were given to a relative of Dalton.
The informant furnishes the name
of the relative to whom the checks
were made payable and other details
of the transaction. 1t is urged upon
the President that under such cir
cumstances Dalton ought not to have
the office,

1T will be a surprise to many of
the friends of Mrs. Jefferson Davis
to learn that she is living in New
York in poor and uncomfortable
circumstances. Her income is said
to have decreased rapidly in the past
few years until now it is inadequate
to her support, even in the modest
way in which she lives. There is
no doubt but that Mrs. Davis failed,
through Misrepresentation or actual
fraud, to realize her share of the pro-
ceeds of the sale of her husbands
memoirs, and it was In an effort to
secure justice from her publishers
that her income was reduced to its
present status. The wife of the Con-
federate President is not in actual
want, but she and her daughter have
scarcely more than the bare neces-
sites of life.
