Vance Superior Court.

Spring term Of Vance Superior Court
began Monday. Judge A. L. Coble is
presiding, the State being represented
by Capt. W. B. Shaw and G. NJ. Ber-
nard. The Judges charge to the
grand jury was lengthy and well con-
sidered, covering in concise manner
the various offences Of which that body
would have to take cognizance.
Both the civil and criminal dockets
are quite full, there being no court iu
October, many cases that should have
been tried then having to go over to
the present term. Business is being
disposed OF in rapid and systematic
manner.
Judge Coble has impressed himself
fayorably upon the bar, court officers
and others, and is sustaining the repu-
tation made at the three courts he has
held before coming to Vance. He is
one of the new judges elected last
November.

AFTER SENATOR PALMER.
Thomas f. Merritt Charges the Ex
Governor With Inconsistency.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, April TO- Hon.
Thos. Il. Merritt of Salem, Marion
county, Democrat, for twenty-five
years in the Legislature, says the
Democrats are solid for silver, and are
in favor of convention. He stated
in an interview that il the next two
years are like the past two years of
Democratic administration, there will
not be enough Democrats In Illinois to
hold convention. Mr.. Merritt said
Senator Palmer was once 16 to sill
yer man, as his articles in the estate
Register" show, The veteran legisla-
tor was anxious to have Senator
Palmer reconcile the two bond issues
with the, statement that the repeal OF
the silver purchasing clause of the
Sherman act had saved drain on the
Treasury of 100000.
Mr.. Merritt declared:
''If the people OF the State of Him
ois had known that Senator Palmer's
views on the silver question were
such as he has now shown them to be,
he certainly never would have been a
Senator from this State.
at seems that since the Senator has
gone over his three score and ten, ,and
begins to feel that all is vexation and
vanity, he has placed his heart on
taking care of his relations. He has
two grandchildren in the service of
the Government by Cleveland's ap-
pointment, one in the army and one a
wished to have appointed United
States District Judge, and in the
former administration of Mr.. Cleve-
land he asked the President to make
the appointment. But he failed to get
the place.

Dehorning Calves.
From the Orange Judd Farmer

From the Orange Judd Farmer
There is no doubt that the absence
of horns from all except thoroughbred
cattle is very desirable. From adult
animals they can tie removed by the
use of the saw or some of the clippers
made especially for the purpose.
While these methods are not injurious
it is not denied that they are very
painful. Preventing their growth is
the most humane method as well as
the one most easily applied.
When the calf is few days old, clip
off the hair over the horn button. Rub
this button with stick of caustic pot
ash, the end of which has been moist
ened with water. Continue until the
embryonic horn begins to appear in
famed. 1t will dry up in a few days
and no scar be left. Do not allow a
particle of the callstic to touch any
other portion of the skin, as it burns
intensely, but is not SO painful to the
horn buttons, though it may cause the
calf to be dumpish for q few days.
Wrap paper about the stick of caus-
tic to protect the fingers.
4 number of prepared applications
are on the market, most of which are
effective, but the caustic potash in
sticks can be had at any drug store.
The advisibility of 'lehorning need not
be argued. All who have tried it in
dorse the practice.

OBSERVER" A LITTLE OFF.
J.B. C. Takes the Ledger" CORES.
pondent to Task.

To the Editor of the Laddonia Herald.
RUSH HILL, Mo-, April 10.-We wish
through your paper to notice some re-
fections cast upon this community by
a correspondent from this place to the
Mexico LEDGER of the 4th inst, who
signs himself HObserver."
He not only misrepresents the con-
dition of the school houses in this
community, but grossly misrepresents
the people. From personal observa-
tions we can safely say that the peo-
pie of this community are alive and
up to the times on the subject of edu-
cation, and the school houses are al
neat and in good repair, and the peo-
pie show an interest in having gooC
teachers. We defy "Observer" te
show one single school house in the
condition be represents school houses
to be in.
And the reflection ne casts on the
people in regard to their children il
not only misleading, but gross insul
to she community at large. He il
terribly ignorant about what he ii
writing or he IS willfully stating wha
he knows to be untEpe.
We think "Observer" must have
made his observations down in the
Ozark Mountains some fifty years ago
and we venture to predict that he now
lives in the brush and does not otter
get into the civilized world. j. B. G.

CATTLE ARE SCARCE.
Only Reason Known to Kansas City
Packers.

! KANSAS CITY, Mo. April l2.-Secre-
tary Morton's instructions regarding
investigation into the causes for the
prevailing high prices of meats have
not disturbed the cattlemen and pack
ers in this city. All of those inter
viewed in reference 10 the matter to-
| day unite in the statement that the
scarcity of cattle is the cause and that
there is not the slightest reason for
the supposition that combination
exists either among The cattlemen or
packers,
Robert C.White, senior member of the
Il. c. White Company, who has been in
the CATTLE business for 40 years, eX-
presses the opinion of a majority of

"A poor corn CROP" he says, ''has
invariably been followed by high
prices for cattle and beef in the past,
and this year is no exception. The

markably for the first quarter of 1895.

there is such a scramble for cattle the
opportunity for combination is re-
duCed to the minimum.

A New Phase,

From the Jefferson City Courier.
The opinion of the Supreme Judges
of California shows that the right to
submit to the people the proposition
to remove the State Capital to Sedalia
did not rest with the Legislature in
the way it was dorIe.
The Legislature was not acting as n
Constitutional Convention and had no
right to change the Constitution by
amendment. Another proposition is
self-evident. The matter was sub
mitted to the Legislature by a "joint
and concurrent resolution which is
not in the form of law, since it does
not require the Governors signature.
No law was t1en passed by the
Thirty eighth General Assembly to
remove the State Capital to SedaIia
and hence it cannot be moved. The
Legislature has been condemned by the
press of the State for its hasty action
on the removal question, but the peo-
pie of the State and the City of JEFF
ferson now owe them a vote of thanks
that Sedalia's boom is now a boone
rang.

THE Democrats of Missouri should
learn lesson from the Republicans
In adversely there is no trouble about
Democrats sticking together. You
can't kill the Democratic party. When
in the minority they will stick together
and keep the organization intact. The
principles of the party are sure to live
no matter what may happen to indi-
vidual politicians. Some Democrats
are unable to stand prosperity. Re-
publicans, whether in adversity or
prosperity, work together and fight all
opposition as one man. The Demo-
Gratis fight amoug themselves. They
abuse their leaders and abuse each
other and. as a matter of fact, make
monkeys of themselves. You can find
n "Democratic paper located not n
thousand miles from Mexico that re-
ioices to see the statement published
that the bnly Democratic president of
the United States that we have had
within the memory of the present
generation is a drunkard. The same
paper, Immediately after the party
who made the accusation published
an abjeet apology and all OF those
present on the occasion that the Pres
ident was said to be drunk, published a
statement that he was not only notun-
der the influence ofliquor, but that he
had. not even taken drink, derides
the President for being placed in the
position TO deny the accusation of be-
ing drunk. No wonder the Republi-
cans expect to carry Missouri in 1896.

STRANGE CAREER ENDED.
Kentucky Farmer Buys Wife, Com
mits Bigamy and Kills Himself.

LOUISVILLE, KY, April 11.-Frede-
rick Weimer, a well-to-do farmer of
Woodford county, came to this city a
few days ago to attend a sale of seven
teen hogsheads of tobacco he had
shipped here. When he arrived be
had about 500 in cash, and Monday
sold his tobacco, which netted him the
same amount. Then he went to a
saloon ON Fifth street and began
drinking freely. While in jolly hu-
NOR he said he was afraid to go to bed
with SO much money on him, and re-
manned at the saloon all night.
He told those in the saloon about
losing his wife lately and said he was
very lonesome, saying he would give
$50 for wife. Two hackmen, William
Welper and Martin Crane, have lately
been disputing the affections of oEe
Effie Cannon, a domestic employed by
a family at Third and Broadway. They
agreed to waive all claim and give her
to Weimer for the $50. The girl upon
being seen consented to the marriage,
and they were taken to Jeffersonville
and married, Weimer giving each of
the hackmen S25. Weimer and his
bride missed the train for Versailles
that night and employed the two hack
men to take them to their destination.
This morning Weimer's body was
found near Versailles. The Coroner's
jury returned verdict of suicide. The
testimony at the inquest seems to show
that his suicide was superinduced by a
plethora of infectious matrimonial
experiences. He had wife and three
grown daughters living at Ripely, O.,
and wife in Bracken county, the
Louisville girl to whom he was mar
ried Tuesday and paramour named
Kate Oots, with whom he had been
living for year.
Kate Oots testified that wife No,
came to Versailles six weeks ago.
There was trouble at that time be-
tween wife No. 2, Farmer Weimer, his
paramour and his children, and Wei
mer had been respondent ever since
and threatened to kill himself severa
days ago. He was total abstainel
prior to his Louisville trip.

'Tis SOZODONT which purifies
The breath and mouth, and dirt defies.
