As 10 E0Wdy Joe,

Fem the Western Breeder. st. Joseph, Mo.
We have always insisted that it
don't pay to boom Il green PAGER.
Some how or another every time a
green PAGER is introduced 10 the pub.
lie through trials that are said to
have fairly burned up the track and
singed all the grass in a radius Of
forty miles, that same green PAGER
goes to the races and gets enough
danger signals TO make blankets for
the entire sleeping apartments ofthe
biggest orphan asylum in Russia.
Now there's RoWdy Joe. Friends,
we hate to speak of this notorious
horse, but the truth must be told.
For six months every turf paper that
has wandered west of the Atlantic
Ocean or east of the Pacific, has had
something to say about the two min
ute PAGER and has directly or indi,
rectly pointed to Rowdy Joe as the
chess" Too much prosperity in
the shape of puffs appears to have
started the wheels in Joe's head, for
in his very first race, at Freeport,
H., he took to his heels at the word,
and danced his way to further fame
by so dancing and jumping, until he
was presented with a half yard of
bright new flannel.
Moral: Don't boom the green
PAGER; let him boom himself.

The U. S. Supreme Court
GRAMS A WRIT OF ERROR IN
THE wADE-RINGO CASE.
And 1t VIII Now Re Heard Before That
COurt-The Famous Snit Yet
Undecided.
The famous Wade, Ringo case is

The famous Wade Ringo case is
yet undecided.
1t will be tried before the United
States Supreme Court.
Plaintiff asked the Supreme Court
of this State 10 pass upon the valid
ity of the letters patent granted to
Mr.. Ringo, which the Court refused
to 90, hence plaintiff took his case
before II of the Judges of the Su-
preme Court of the United States.
John NJ. Barker, attorney for
Wade, went to Washington, D. c.,
and laid the ease before Justice
Harlan, of the United States SUI
preme Court. Mr.. S. w. Bick-
ley, also attorney for plaintiff Wade,
received the following telegram
Tuesday:
To 5. W. Buckley, Mexico, Mo.
WASHINGTON, ID. C, June 90
Wade's appeal allowed by Justice
Harlan. JOHN NJ. BARKER.
The suit originally involved &c.
900, but with damage suits, costs,
etc, there is now at stake some
where between $4,000 and 500.
900. The ase originated in a trade
made July 81, 1891, in which Char.
ley Wade agreed to exchange his
stock of furniture, fixtures, etc., esti.
mated at about $1,000 or $4,000.
to Brit Ringo for a half interest il
a patent folding bed which Mr.
Ringo invented. The case was
decided in the Audrain Circuit Cour
in favor of Ringo and the decision
was affirmed in the Missouri Su
preme Court.
Mr.. Wade is very much elatet
over the fact that it will come be
fore the L. S. Supreme Court
Justice Harlan examined the cas-
two days before granting the writ O
error.
Mr.. Ringo's attorneys say the.
have received no information il
reference to this appeal and that th
only effect it could have would b
2 simply TO prolong the litigation.

THE TAYL0RS CAUGHT.
Near browning. Mo, in Custody
at Little Rock, Arkansas.

LITTLE Rock, ARK, June 25.-
The TAYLOR brothers, William III. and
George, charged with n OF the most
heinous and wholesale murders in
the history of Missouri, were brought
here to-day by Hon. J. c. South.
who effected their capture at But
falo City, Marion County, Ark, last
Saturday. South is adelegate to the
State Convention, which meets here
Wednesday, June 9th, and was on
his way TO Little Rock when, in pass
ing through Buffalo City, he recog-
nized theTaylors by descriptions and
photographs he had in his pocket.
The brothers came with South to
Little Rock voluntarily, and will
stop with South at Gleason's Hotel,
this city, until after the convention,
when they will accompany him to
st. Louis, and thence TO Linn Coun-
", the scene of their alleged crime.
They have plenty of funds with
them, William II. having been a
prominent banker at Browning al
the time of their flight. They admit
their identity, but deny any connec'
ton with the crime, and attribute
their sudden flight to the temper o
the community at the time. They
are perfectly willing to go back with
cut requisition papers, they say
South walks about with them on thu
streets in perfect confidence, ant
| does not fear their escape. There i
a reward of $2,fO0 offered by TIL
Governor of Missouri, and other re
wards will increase the amount t
5000.

MI. CLEVELAND on FINANCES.
The President Talks of Things Par.
ticuiar and GeneraI-The Patriot
ism of New York Bankers
Commended.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-The
President, in speaking last night Of
the financial situation, said:
"The offer of certain New York
banks to replace from their vaults,
gold withdrawn from the Govern
ment Treasury for shipment abroad,
is certainly thoughtful and patriotic.
1t not only tends TO maintain the
Treasury's gold reserve in good
condition, but il adds to the stock
OF popular confidence, which is at
all times important. The elements
which make up our actual situation
do not justify the apprehensions and
the Administration still adheres to
its pledge and determination to pro-
tect our national credit at all haz-
ards and to keep the quality of our
money equal to the best so far as
the limits of executive power per-
NIT.
"Of course croaklng and the
spread of disquieting tales is calcu-
lated to iniure the strongest tinan-
cial conditions. | assume, however,
that there is too much patriotism
among Il people and too much
familiarity with our and
capabilities, to permit u reserved
force and financial vigor to be dis
! credited. When the last Govern
ment bonds were issued to replen'
ish our stock of gold, it was nearly
as slow as now, while outside of our
gold, we had as available money TO
pay ordinary expenses of the Gov
eminent only about $4,000, 900.
''We have now, besides our gold
and in money applicable TO Govern
| ment expenses, more than S53 ,000,-
900.
81 understand that il is charged
in certain quarters. that the pay.
ment OF matured obligations is post
poned 10 the amount of $50, 600 900
or $75, 900 900. This is not true.
We are paying as We go, lin the usual
way. Last year up to June /, the
balance against us arising from the
export and imports of merchandise,
excluding gold and silver, was SG4,-
552. 046. The balance in our favor,
the same period of this year, was
$62 $50, 562, representing a change
in our favor of 1927, 512 Cos. These
conditions, taken in connection
with the Willingness of our banks to
help the Treasury during any TEN
porary and unusual drain of gold,
ought to satisfy the most conserva-
tive OF our safety"
W. 7. Bradley, formerly with the
Mexico LEDGER, is now city sales
man for the August Cast Bank Note
and Lithograptilng Company of St.
Louis. He is a reliable, active young
business man and we are sure will
give splendid satisfaction.
