VOLUME

With this. issue the INTELLIGENCER
enters its twenty-fifth year.
Before it is the tuture,-behind it is
a record covering a period of twenty
four years.
With that record our readers are
familiar.
For twenty-four years the lNTELLI-
GENCER has been a welcome guest at
the homes of Lafayette c%ountyans, and,
perhaps, it has never closed a volume
under more flattering conditions.
1t has been the ambition of the
management to win for it the. con-
Hdencs and respect of the people, and
. prominent place among the journals
ofifs kind id Missouri,
We have andeavored to give our
readers, above all, a clean, reliable
paper; one that was not too feeble to
have c~onvictisns, nor too cowardly to
express them.
We are gratiied with the success
that has attended the INTELLIGENCER
under It's present management, and
trust that its merits will bespeak for il
q continuance OF esteem and patronage.
With heartfelt thanks to all Of oul
friends who have aided us in Our work,
cur compliments to the press OF Mis-.
souri,, and with Glove toward all and
malice toward none" the I%NTELLIGEN-
GER opens its twenty-ffth volume.

II seems to be really true that Bill
Cook has been captured. That b-a.s.d
man surrendered when he found .
couple of guns pointed Mt him. He
has tcrrorized the people until It was
thought he would rather be shot u few
times than not. We thought that
nothing but u cauon, loaded with can-
mister, could hurt him. But no shoot
ing was necessary. An empty gun
was rs good as q loaded one when
he gets in the %penitentiary he ought to
be publicly whipped once . month.
And this whipping is an awful good
medicine for all criminals. More
whipping: less crime.

THAT RRIDGE AGAIN.

If there is any one in Lexington who
believes that the bridge boom is dead,
he would have been convinced that it
was Il very live corpse had he attended
the meeting of the board of directors
on Thursday evening.
The INTELIIGENCEE rejoices that the
question is 10 be taken up again, and
believes that the result of the bridge
company now formed will be a bridge
across the ssbig muddy" that will
enhance the value of every foot OF
ground and every piece of property in
and around Lexington at least fifty
per cen
The INTELUGENCEI has always
believed that the bridge would be
built. 1t believes this, and has asserted
it, because it believes that such an
Institution is necessary for the contin-
ned growth and advancement of
Lexington.
Now is the time for our citizens to
pul their shoulders to the wheel and
push with all their might.
Every man who owns property in or
around Lexington should boom the
bridge. Not because it will be an
ornament TO the town, but rs a business
affair entirely, out of which he expects
to accrue his profits in the enhance
ment of the value of his property.
The undertaking is worthy OF any
city twenty times as large as Lexing-
ton, but we have the capital, the
inducements and the spirit. We will
build the bridge, provided that we
work as one man: W. are laboring
Tor an object that will benefit every
interest in this city. There must be
no shirking and no pouting; nobody
must feel sighted because he is not on
this or that committee. VIZ want no
kickers. If you are not the calibre to
assist in this enterprise with all your
heart, you have outliycd your useful
ness here, and the best thing you ear
do is to pull your freight to Other
parts.
Give all you a TO this enterprise,
every cent you are able to give. II
You have been blessed with fortune,
give accordingly. II you are u poor
man, then with that patriotism that
prompts noble deeds, come forward
and give yonr mite. Every man In
Lexington should give something.
