WANTS $4,000 DAMAGES.
II. 4. Forgty TO Sue the Hradstreet
and Dun Commercial Companies
for that Amount.

Henry A. Forgey, of this city,
agent for many brands of beers
and liquors and proprietor of the
wholesale beer depot in this city, has
filed two suits against Bradstreet &
Co. and R. G. Dun Il Co. respect
lively, for $40, 900 damages each, al
leglng that these two companies fur
nished libelous reports against him
concerning his financial standing.
The suits were fled last week in the
U. S. Circuit Court at St. Louis by
Mr.. Forgey's attorney, John d.
Orear, of this city.
Bradstreet & Co. and Dun e. Co.
are we'll known the world over as
publishers of directories concerning
the financial standings of all of the
business men the country over.
They have offices in all the large
cities. Concerning Mr.. Forgey, they
published in their directory the re-
port that he was worth less than
$500 and was a small saloon keeper
in Mexico, Mo-, which he claims is
false. The cases will commence in
the March term of the L. S. Circuit
Court at St. Louis. Attorney Orear
claims he has grounds for a good
case against these companies and
will push the matter to tight
finish.

BRAND THE CLAIM As FALSE.
Worlds Fair Officials Expose n Pre-
tender to an Award.

! CHICAGO. ILL.,, Dec. 19.-One OF
the odd results of the Worlds Fair
is the claim now made to awards by
some who were not even exhibitors
Officials of the Exposition have not
as yet taken final action in the mat.
ter, believing the quick wit of the
people will detect the spurious
claims. But to the case OF New
York baking powder, that has been
widely advertising an award, the at.
tention of the Chief Of Awards for
Agriculture has been directed. He
brands the claim of this pretender as
false, declaring "Neither the records
of this department, nor the official
catalogue OF the Worlds Fair Co.
lumbar Exposition, show that this
Newlo lork Company was an exhibitor;
consequently it could not receive an
award at the Worlds Fair
Those who fairly won their honors
at the Fair seem disposed to treat
this fraud as any other fraud should
be treated. The Price BakingPowder
Company, of Chicago, having re.
ceived the highest award, say they
are convinced their claims ,and those
OF all other holders of rightful hon
ors, will be fully vindicated by the
public.

A CHAIR of journalism has been
established at the State University
of Missouri. If an experienced,
practical newspaper man is elected
to fill this chair it will prove a very
popular and successful feature of the
University. The LEDGER has al
ways been in favor of a School Of
Journalism to- educate newspaper
men. Doctors, lawyers, teachers
and professional men of all kinds
have been able to take a special
course. Editors will now have the
same opportunity for a thorough ed
ucation and we are sure journalism
throughout the country will be ele-
waited.

EARLY HISTORY
Of Benton City-Once Called JefrtoMn.
From the Benton City Enterprisa

From the Benton City Enterprise.
The land where Benton City
stands, together with other lands
adjoining, was entered, i e, bought
from the United States government.
March Z, 1854. by Joseph W.
Lamma of Boone County, Mo-, and
sold to Hon. James s. Rollins of
Columbia, Mo. The price paid was
81 % per acre. In 1856 the North
Missouri railroad (now the Wabash)
was built through Audrain county,
reaching Macon City, Mo-, in 1857.
Soon after the road was built side
track one quarter of a mile long was
put in by the railroad company
where Benton now stands and a
boarding house for section men was
erected. The place was called jeff
town in honor of Colonel Jefferson
Jones, who represented Galloway
county in the Missouri Legislature
for several years.
In 1868 the Chicago & Alton
railroad company surveyed a line
from Louisiana, Mo-, to Jefferson
City, Mo-, crossing the North Mis-
souri, railroad at Jefftown. About
this time a couple of land specula-
tors, viz: Edwin R. Mason and F.
G. Flanagan, purchased the land at
Jefftown end for a mile on either
side. In May, 1868, they laid off
16O acres in town lots. They were
sanguine as to the future success of
the town and caused to be made a
colored lithograph map of the same,
which looked very imposing on pa
per. The streets were sixty feet in
width and were named in honor of
illustrious personages. Among the
thorougfares was Washington boule-
ward, which commenced at what is
now the southeast corner of the Gem.
etery and ran due west, terminating
at point which is now the north
west corner of G. w. Days orchard.
The hedge growing on this line was
planted in the centre of Washington
boulevard. A nice park (colored
green on the map) was laid off south
of Washington boulevard on the
high land just west of where Will
liam Reads house now stands and
extending west nearly the whole
length of the boulevard, taking in
what is now part of Reads mead
ow and George Days cow pasture.
This park was called Lincoln Park
and was to be the retreat of the elite
of the new metropolis on Sundays
and on sultry evenings, where they
could find rest away from the crowd
ed city and from the busy marts of
trade. G. w. WYLDE.

PORT ARTHUR Mt>>ArEF.
streets af The tiiy Clicked and Block.
AIDED Win Mutilatrd torpses.

New York, Dec. l9 The World
will print the following special ad-
vices from its correspondent, James
Creelman, WI" was with theJapanese
army, dated Port Arthur, November
"a, via Vancouver, December 10:
The struggle for the emancipation of
Corea has suddenly been turned into
headlong savage war of conquest.
1t is no longer a conflict between
civilization and barbarism. Japan
for the last four days has trampled
civilization under The feet or her
conquering army.
The taking of Port Arthur and the
possession of one of the most power
full strongholds in the world was too
great a strain upon the japanese
character, which relapsed in a few
hours back into the british state
from which 1t was awakened a gen.
Grafton ago. Almostth entire pop.
ulation of Port Arthur has been
massacred and the work Of butcher
ing the unarmed and unresisting in.
habitants has been continued. The
streets are choked with mutilated
corpses.
In spite of the vastness of the
battlefield and the strength of the
batteries massed in this mighty
chain of land and sea for this, the
taking OF Port Arthur is robbed of
its dignity as battle by the fact
that large and we'll trained army
attacked a mere rabble. There was
a great deal of artillery thunder and
scientific maneuvering of the troops
among the cannon-crowned hills, but
the infantry fighting was incidental
and the "butcher bill, as the
hardened campaigner would call it,
was insignificant. The japanese lost
about fifty dead and twenty five
wounded in carrying a fortress that
would have cost them 10000 men
had it been occupied by European or
American citizens. China is now at
the mercy of the island Empire. In
a few days the fierce Sennsl troops
will be ready to leave Japan TO join
Field Marshal Oyama's army, and
then the third and final movement
toward Peking will begin.

Short Sermons.

1t never becomes entirely dark to
those who look up.
The religion that costs nothing is
worth just that much.
The man who does not look ahead
soon has to fall back.
The important thing is not how
long we are going to live, but how.
When you go to church to pray
for a revival, don't do it on a back
seat
The DEVILS principal work is to
make wrong people think they are
right.
God never sends danger to any
man to whom he has not first given
courage.
1t is a great deal easier for some
people to pray for the preacher than
it is to do their part toward his sup
mort.

JOHN K. LUCKIE.
Victory for St. James Academy.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Dec. 19.-
Judge Burgess, of Division No. 2, of
the Supreme Court, handed down
an opinion in the case of the St.
James Military Academy against
the Minister'S Alliance of Macon
City. This case is the result of the
war between the school and preach
ers some years ago, which grew out
of the opposition Of the latter to
dancing being taught the students
of the academy. The ministers car
ried the war so far as to publish a
set of resolutions attacking the
school, and the managers then in-
stituted the suit for libel. The case
is reversed and remanded by Judge
Burgess on account of errors in its
trial in the lower court, but the
opinion says that the language OF
the resolution justities action under
the law, so it is,victory for the acad-
emy.

W. W. Bolts, OF Eandalia, who
was in Perry on legal business last
Saturday, made US pleasant visit.
Mr.. Bolts is substantial young
lawyer and a worthy gentleman.

sentative last spring, his competitor
being one of the most influential

A LOW BRIDGE.
The Fight for a Bridge at Jefferson
City Won at Washington.

From Jefferson City Tribune.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec. 90
Tribune, Jefferson City, Mo-: The
fight for low bridge has been won.
Senator Vest put the amendment TO
the bridge charter through the sem
ate to-day. Congressman Bland
will put it through the house, prob
ably before the holiday adjournment.
J. c. FISHER.
The above is good and welcome
news to Jefferson City. 1t means
that there is now the brightest pros
poets in the world for the consum-
nation of the hopes of all in regard
to spanning the Missouri with
bridge. The amendment to the
charter, permitting the low bridge
with draw span, brings the enter
prise within the reach of home
company. \ high bridge called for
more capital than home company
could afford to put into it.
There will be more and important
news in a day or two in regard TO
the bridge.

THE WAR Is ENDED.
China Has Concluded to Give
Up the Fight.

LONDON, Dec. 20. Important
dispatches have been received here
tonight from Toxic, indicating
clearly that the war between China
and Japan has practically ended.
Whatever instructions have been
conveyed to the commanders of The
respective military and naval forces
from the governing Powers of the
two Empires is not told in the ad-
vices; but assurances are given i'm
quarters known to be thoroughly
cognizant of diplomatic affairs that
the Emperor Of China has been pre-
vailed upon TO hasten commissioners
to Japan, and these ENJOYS have
such power of concession as will,
without doubt, enable them TO bring
about an immediate and complete
end of hostilities.
The details OF their authority are
not given, but the presumption is
not ignored in diplomatic quarters
that the concessions asked by the
JapaneseGovernment have met with
the acquiescence of the reigning
powers of China.

Mexico Ledger.

From the Fayette MOI Advertiser.
Among our many exchanges the
Mexico LEDGER ranks very high.
There is a striking originality
about its editorial department which
marks it above other papers.
Bob White is a thorough news
paper man, as his paper plainly
shows. Whenever any matter of po.
litical interest is before the people,
the readers of the LEDGER can al
ways find them fully discussed on
its editorial page. Its amount and
freshness of news is also commend
able. However, no small part of the
excelIency of this paper is due to
Bass Runkle, the able foreman of

agement of the Chicago Il Alton

ding employees of that road to drink

This is good thing if it can be en-.

able interference with their personal
rights when off duty. However, if
they don't want to comply with the
rules they can quit.

In the course of couple of weeks
men will again go through the
formality of swearing off. A resolu-
ton made on any other day in the
year is better and more durable than
one made on the first day ofJanuary.
New Year vows are made because
they are a matter of custom, and
not at all for observance. When a
young man resolves, on that day,
that he will use no more profane
language, it nearly always happens
that on the following day he out
classes a pirate. Make your vows
to-day, and see if they last until
New Years.
