A BUSINESS COLLEGE.

Among the other enterprises that
have been started, as q consequence of
the bridge movement, Is a business
college. Prof. L. F. Myers, who has
been connected with the colleges for
several years, Is the originator of the
school, and will be its principal. 1t
will be located in the second story Of
the Kriehn building, and will be fur
nished with all modern equipments.
One Thousand illustrated catalogues
will soon be sent out. This catalogue
will show q strong faculty for such q
young institution. It will show fur
Their, that the course Of study mapped
out will equal that of many of the much
older institutions.
The lNTELLIGENcER is indeed graft
ned that the college has been started,
and trusts that from its first opening
day 1t will receive a generous patron
age.
Lexington is a college town. 1t is
just the place for q successful business
college. Such an institution will, II
successful, bring annually hundreds of
students here. These will put into
circulation many hundreds of dollars.
They will make the town livelier and
better. The school will help to build
up Lexington, if In turn Lexington
helps 1t.
The lNTELLIGENCER trusts that the
citizens will give Prof. Myers encour-
agement, and use their influence at
homo and abroad to make here in Lex
ington q frst-class business college,
where the young men and women Of
Missouri can secure a firsi-class BUSH
ness education, and while getting this
education be enlightened and improved
by association with the best people the
sun smiles on.

The following sensible editorial
appeared in the Post Dispatch yester-
day: "With his usual vigor and good
sense Ex-Governor Boies, of Iowa, hit
the nail on the head when he said that
sthe most dangerous enemies Of silver
are those who, while claiming 10 want
bimetallism, demand it under such
circumstances that they know it can
never be realized In this class Il
enemies may be placed not only the
international bimetallists and those
who insist that we must find some
indefinite ratio not l6 to ! in some
vague way in order to secure bimetal-
lism. The latter plan is the favorite
dodge of western Wall street organs.
which want to secretly aid gold mono
metalism and dupe their readers into
believing that they r in favor of free
silver coinage. They are enemies of
bimetalism,"

The st. LOUIS Globe Democrat makes
itself r~idiculously small in its continued
efforts to belittle the members of the
cabinet. This course might
be expected from q thick and thin,
hide-bound partisan 6x9, backwoods
newspaper, but it is unworthy of q
great journal. Mr.. Harmon, who has
been recently appointed attorney gen.
ersl, Is uniformly attested to be we'll
equipped for the position, testimony to
this fact having been borne by as high
authority IS Ex-President Harrison.
The Globe Democrat never ceased to
throw mud upon Mr.. Gresham while be
was 10 the cabinet, only, Immediately
after his death, to bear testimony in
highest praise to his intelligence,
capacity, patriotism and courage. 1t
Is about time that newspaper were
reading itself a lesson upon common
decency.

Majah William Wahnah is said to
have presidential aspirations. To be a

be a fad. Warner in the white house

of an administration that o COW would

The day has been so warm that the

lively.

valley. Several are going to commence
this week.
Cattle buyers are getting numerous.
Yearling steers are going from IA to Is
dollars per head.

of years old mares Saturday at the

would have sold for three times that
amount. Where oh where is that wave
of prosperity we were promised last
fall.
The assessor is around finding out
how prosperous the people are. Horses
are so low they are not worth taxing.
The census enumeration embraces all
the questions that could be thought of
except how long YOU expect to live and
how large family you expect to raise.
Also where a man has few bushels of
corn or wheat they might ask how
many hundred acres of land it took to
raise 1t on.

DIR. J. I. Cushepberry of the Shar-
on neighborhood, moved to this city
last week and is now located among us
to follow his profession. The doctor
is well known to the larger portion
of the citizens of the eastern part of
the county as good physician and a
man of wide experience. Heretofore
he has not devoted his entire time to
the profession as he had other business
that demanded his attention; he has
therefore moved to town to facilitate
himself to follow his chosen profession
more closely. He resides IN the Hahn
property on East Kansas avenue and
Offices in the j. r. Young s. Co. drug
store. The doctor is graduate of a
medical college and we think he will
get his share Of patronage. Calls will
be answered promptly at all hours-day
or night.

tlcipate in singing the praises of God

j. Fl. Warren and son have COM
menced listing corn.
Spring is giving unmistakable proof
OF its presence. Pastures are assuming
green color.
Apricot fruit buds are uninjured at
this date. We seldom get a full crop
of apricots. They usually bloom on
the last days of March and the frost
kills them while in bloom or a freeze
kills the young tender fruit. There
will be some bloom on the nectarine
and peach trees and some of the fruit
buds have been winter killed. l am
not sure yet whether there will be
enough bloom for good crop. 1 am of
the opinion that there will not be as
many peaches on = tree as for the last
two years but what peaches and nee
tarines there are will be larger and
better than usual. The prospects for
all other fruits such as plums, pears,
cherries, apples and grapes are good at
present. There are not many almonds
raised here but what has been said of
the peach this year will also apply to
the almond.

Let Man be Ruler.

That man was made first was a reason quite
plain
why man should be ruler of the family domain.
God surely intended that Eve shoulc obey,
That her Will should be subject to Adams
Away,
Else he, at the first. would have made man
twain.
| For woman to rule over man is not right
Man in subsection g pitiable sight
That woman should govern was never Or
dained;
Her assumption to rule cannot be maintained,
For man was made first to rule in his right.
Dominion and power q cd did give to man
Not for Adam alone to rule tho his plan
Let them have dominion-Jehovah's decree
over fowls of the air and fish of the sea,
For female and male, created he mBn.
| The sale of right to govern no woman can
claim
Assumption of power was never her aim
For they have dominion-not she nor yet he;
Together they rule byGod's changeless decree,
She asks but her share, not more than does
claim.
That man. before woman. was made we agree.
| But does power thus rest with priority?
If 80, then the beast and the fish and the fowl,
Then even the greyhound, the earth, worm or
owl,
| Being made before m an would rule man
don't you see?
Woman's rule over man would prove great
cure,
Mans tyranny of her is now even worse,
To both, equal power to govern was given;
| Thus both for their talents must answer in
heayen.
And therefore, receive either blessing or
curse.
Can man, then. or woman, assume sole control
| If the life of the other-the body and soul?
| Can either then say that to rule is my right?
When God holds them equal IN His sight?
Let them have dominion-let them have
control.
Let man, then be- ruler in home and In state,
| That man, male and female, which God did
create.
| Let then have dominion, not he no yet She
Let them have dominion, Jehovah's decree
And wisdom will rule both In home and in
state.
