To thu Editor of the Ledger.
MEXICO, Mo-, May 13.-It seems to
me that your correspondent, ''Bateri-
ologist,n has gone a little out of the
way to be facetious. Anything that
may affect the apple crop of Missouri
deserves sensible consideration. So
far as known its enemies heretofore
have been the canker worm, codlIng
moth, bud moth, scab and more re-
Gently the green aphis. But Captain
Frost's observed enemy is none of
these. Mr.Shippee thinks it a form of
catirpellar and close observation on
some trees in west Mexico shows
some webs and dead idred skins of
something of the sort. In this case
spring spraying would prove remedy
for this as for all the others.
l have sent specimens to the Agri-
cultural Department at Washington
and if anything of interest is learned
it will be given to the readers of the
LEDGER. Respectfully,

CHANGES IN THE SENATE.
Death OF Senator Morrissey Leaves but
Eighteen Democratic Members.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo, May 1s. The
death of Senator Morrissey this morn
ing leaves the upper body with but Is
Democratic members, or exactly the
required number of votes to pass a
bill. This will keep the Democratic
side of the Senate on the alert, as
should n party question be brought
up and one of its members absent, the
condition of affairs will place the Sem
ate practically i'll the hands of the Re-
publicans, that is, as far as blocking
legislation is concerned.
Governor Stone said tonight that
he would not call a special election to
fill the place made vacant by Senator
Morrissey's death as the extra session
would probably adjourn before the
election could occur.
The sad and unfortunate death of
Senator Morrissey cast a gloom over
the upper body when called to order
at O'Clock this afternoon. No busi-
ness was attempted and the Senate
adjourned Immediately after appoint
ing this committee of five to attend
Senator Morrissey's funeral: Senators
Peers, Morton, Kennish, Brewster
and Ieater.

BIMETALLISM.

To the Editor of the Ledger.
MEXICO, Mo-, May 15.-There is no
one who would object to maintaining
the amount of gold and silver in our
currency as before 1873. Including
small silver this was 1G of gold to six
of silver. Or, no one would object to
doing as was done in establishing the
mint in 1899. Ascertain the market
value of silver and declare free coin
age of silver dollars at that ratio;
either of these propositions would be
bimetallism. Free coinage of silver
at ratio of IS to is pure monomet-
allism, as no one can believe that gold
and silver at 16 to ! would circulate
together unless we continue to tax
our silver to hold up silver, as we do
now. Mr.. Bryan said he preferred
a silver basis to a gold basis.
The silver men have increased the
silver coinage until the present guam
| tity is equal to that of gold and they
are not satisfied. For seventeen
wears we have had unlimited legal
| tender of silver dollars with now 90
| times as much as before 1873. Yet
| they cry for more, and none of the
benefits promised have been obtained.
They appeal to the shades of Jeffer-
son and Jackson. Jefferson stopped the
coinage of silver dollars and no more
were coined for 80 years. DuringJack
sons eight years one thousand silver
| dollars were coined. The weight OF
| silver limits its use to ordinary bust
ness for large transactions; gold is
more convenient. This is also BIZ
metallism. Congress has furnished
sixty times as many silver dollars as
before 1873. How much do we needi
The measure of value is dollar. A
dollar was in 1892 declared to be {
weight of gold or silver. In 1S49 {
gold dollar was declared unit anC
ordered to be minted.
/ We are the richest nation on earti
and no one can oppress us or hurt us
; We are gold producers and can hav.
an abundance if we will. Coll
exports have averaged less than on,
million annually for sixteen years
The National Treasury is short becaus,
of -billion-dollar Congresses. A
, a nation and individuals we are il
debt only when we spend more none,
than we earn. Silver dollar coinag,
was stopped in 1873. In 1875 we re
sumed specie payment; in 1878 we re
sumed coinage of silver dollars an.

THE OLD HOME.

How sacred is the old home place,
Where my childhood days were
spent.
Where mingled with natures Won
ders,
But knew not what they meant.
With the minds eye / still behold,
Those scenes to my heart so dear.
Though changed by other hands,
And the tide of each passing year.
Clearly see the humble mansion,
Surrounded by many kinds of trees
and flowers.
And distinctly do / hear the natural
songsters,
Singing in the hawthorn bowers.
/ still behold the old hearthstone,
Lighted up with fire cheerful and
bright.
And the many kind faces, that on
long winter evenings
Came to pass away the lengthy
nights.
see the old-time measure,
Placed on the rustic shelf.
And grandma's old-fashioned mirror,
In which you could plainly see your
self.
Before me is the golden garb,
OF the fields of waving grain.
And the rustling of the corn blades,
Just before a summer rain.
Like phantom coming DER me,
Is the old watch dogs trusty alarm.
And the lowing of the anxious cattle,
At distance on the farm.

MEXICO, Mo-, May Ill. L. Sims,
Chairman of the Audrain County Cen
trail Committee, was in Mexico to-day.
He is in favor of the State Committee
meeting as soon as possible and de-

procrastination will only increase the
differences existing in the party. The
sooner it is settled the better.
Mr.. Sims will wait ON the State
Committee before calling a county

which is very likely, he will call a
meeting anyway. Mr.. Sims il for free
