The Cigarette iiiII.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. Jan. 15.-
Senator Love will introduce his Gig
arctic bill tomorrow. The bill pro-
vides that anyone dealing in cigar
ettes or cigarette wrappers shall pay
state license of 81 900 and that
the county license can not be any
less. This will mean So, 900 yearly
tax for any person handling the un-
dertaker's friend. Senator Love be-
lieves that this is the only way to
bar out the sale Of cigarettes from
the state. He has received letters
from almost every head of the edu-
cational institutions in the state, rs
well as tobacco dealers, commencing
the bill and praying for its passage.
From present appearances the meas.
ure will undoubtedly pass the Sem
ate.

On the Road to Ruin.

A good way tor parent to keep q
child on the road to ruin is to always
complain when the teacher has had
occasion to administer discipline.
The child of such parent will con-
clude that he is too good for reproof
and before his parent is aware of the
mistake, his own authority will be
defed, and by the time the boy is
grown--nine cases out of ten-the
father can take upon himself the
creoit of having turned loose upon
society an animal tha: respects
neither the laws of God nor man,
Prisons and almshouses are fed by
the victims of such mistaken notions
OF parental fondness.
Mexico weekly ledger., 1895-01-24

The LEDGER desires to call the
attention Of its readers to the follow
ing, from the Springfield (Mo. }
Democrat: Western Nebraska is o
veritable chamber of horrors, whole
sale suicide now being recorded
among the tragic accompaniments of
its destitute settlers. In Keith coun-
ty between 500 and 600 starving and
freezing children add to the pathos
of the situation, and throughout that
entire section application for aid dis
close the most pitiable state of af-
fairs. The condition appeals to that
touch of nature which makes all the
world akin, and philanthropy, which
was slow in appreciation of the des'
perate situation, is now rising tc the
occasion. In every part of the coun'
try, communities are getting togeth-
er In the work r1f active relief. In
addition to the instances already
cited in these columns, Vernon
county, in this state, is winning uni
versal applause, having already sent
to Nebraska a car load of coal and
one of grain, to be followed by an
other of clothing and provisions.
Greene county should offer some
thing of Its wealth and plenty. Who
will inaugurate movement toward
the donation of car load OF wheat
and corn to the starving women and
children of Keith county, Nebraska?

No LsT-uf ON UHisA,
Japan viii Cantiaae the War Uatil
England Nays Enough,

Toxic, Japan, Jan. 4, Via Van.
eouver, b, c., Jan, l5,-Talk of
peace is snonaense. Japan has made
up her mind to continue the war.
The Sendai garrison, which is to at,
tack Wei.Hai.Wei, is not the only
new army corps under orders. Tho
oska garrison has been instructed to
get ready for the field early in the
spring. Twelve fast steamers are to
be bought as soon as possible, and
agents are securing the world in
search of them. They must be ready
for use by the end of March. Thirty
five steam launches are being built
for the expedition.
/ am satisfied now that the ad-
vance ON Pekin will be delayed un-
til April.
The present movement against
Wei Hal Wei is necsssitated by the
financial position in Japan and the
desire of the Government to meet the
furious spirit of opposition parties.
The end Of this month will see the
same pinching 6nafcial situation
and another victory in China, no
matter how irrelevant the main mil.
itary scheme, which will make the
people forget their woes.
The world must now look to Eng.
land for peace.

Beware!


Mr.. James Squires, of NorthMex-

LEDGER for week past. The paper
carrier would leave it every evening
but before any of the family could
get out to get it the paper was gone.
Mr.. Squires finally decided that it
was being stolen regularly, and
Wednesday kept a watch for the perl

thief's name from publication, but
warns him by this means. Several
persons in that neighborhood have
been missing their papers lately and
unless it is stopped decided action
will be taken by the LEDGER as well

final warning.

six Cent Hogs.


J. G. Hit has hogs contracted for
February, 1896, at six cents. He
is not blue over his contract either.
The thing is working out just as Mr..
Hit figured it. He tells US the pre-.
vailing low price Of hogs will dis
courage the people from raising them
that they will be lower during the
spring and summer and hence
scarce naxt winter and the follwing
spring, He is sanguine of a fair
margin on his six centers yet, though
be probably does not care to invest
further slong that line. This is a
pointer tor our farmers. Let them
keep right on raising hogs one year
with another. They may not make
you anything one year, but If you
have a good bunch OF hogs when
the hog.swell comes you will be
right in clover up to your eyes.

VESTS REPORT.
Senators Hawley and Aldrich
Feel His Shafts.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 18.--In
the Senate debate on the income tax
amendment, Hawley (Rep. of Con,
necticut, remarked that the tariff
bill had been very much benefited
by the FIVE or six weeks discussion
in the Senate. The country, he re,
pes.ted, was benefited by it, and SO
was the gentleman's party.
"Ob, Mr.. President" said Mr..
Vest, with shrug of his shoulders,
"as to my own party being benefit
ed, do not know"
II beg pardon" Mr.. Hawley ad.
ded, satirically, II forgot the elec :
tion." (Laughter.)
On another point, in his speech,
Mr.. Vest said:
81 have no right to say what the
President will do, for | do not enjoy
the Executive confidence. But l
sincerely hope that if Congress ad-
journs without financial legislation,
the President will call US, immedi-
ately, on the final fall of the gavel,
in extraordinary session, and we will
then see whether the Republican
party, by its enactments, will bring
prosperity to the people of the United
States"
"We will not have a Republican
Senate" Mr.. Hawley suggested.
"Iou will not have a Democratic
Senate" Mr.. Vest retorted.
"If the Republicans exercise the
power in their hands they will Or
ganizs this Senate.
"If l understood the Senator from
Missouri on several occasions," Mr..
Aldrich (Rep. of Rhode Island, ,put
in, she thinks that we have no
Democratic Senate now."

Vest, sin Democratic caucus. We
have met a most disastrous defeat;
but we are not yet 80 humiliated as to
