To the Editor of the Ledger.
MEXICO, Mo-, Aug. 25, 1S97.-By re-
sort to vituperation and personal
abuse the editor of the Intelligencer has
chosen the only route out of the pre-
dicament in which he has placed him
self, but not till he had confessed his
political neck into the halter of public
odium.
His timely withdrawal will be taken
as confession of his inability to dis
cuss his political record with any show
of advantage to himself, and In the
exercise of SO great q degree Of pru-
dence in this early retirement he has
the earnest coincidence OF his anxious
friends.
His pathetic appeal for the privilege
Of retirement in this hopeless hour of
condemnation should be allowed him
at least till he has recovered from the
present attack of rabies brought on by
the over anxiety and heat of the oe-
casion, especially complicated as ID
his maIady by certain prospect of q
general restoration Of prosperity. But
he must not construe this present re-
prieve into privilege of political
profiigacy or exemption from a COM
pleted examination.
Regarding his outcry for testimony
Of witnesses 1t is hardly worth while
to remark that witnesses are never
called when the culprit voluntaril,
enters his plea Of guilty.
The uneasiness felt for his persona
record was an undue exercise of anx.
iety for 1t was never the purpose to e
beyond the domain Of legitimate ex'
animation OF political conduct. Sucl
inquiry - that should be left to thu

HON. O. +. CLARK has in charge a
matter which will, without doubt,
prove successful and be of untold
benefit to the Mexico fair association.
Farm products and Missouri grown
stock will be better looked after at
our fair in the future. The fair will be
conducted for the benefit of the farm
ers and liberal premiums will be offer
ed along this line. Mr.. Clark proposes
that two 81 900 premiums be offered,
the first for the best display of live
stock owned by one man or one firm,
and the second will be for the best dis
play of farm products raised by any
man or firm on the same farm in Mis-
souri,. Both of these premiums will be
opened to the State. The money will
be divided so, %, Is and 10 per cent,
making four premiums each. There
will be an entrance fee of per cent.
II the farmers and stock growers in
Missouri take an interest in this mat
ter the success of the enterprise is as
sured. A definite announcement in
reference to the matter will be made

When a person Is losing flesh and

When person Is losing flesh and
wasting away there is cause for alarm.
Nothing 80 worries physician. Con-
sumptives would never Gle If they
could regain their usual weight. In
fact there would be no consumption
if there was no wasting of the sys-
tenn. The cause of this loss of flesh is
a failure to properly digest the food
eaten. Nlne-tenths of all our diseases
date back to some arrangement OF
the stomach.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial will
stop this wasting of the body. 1t acts
by causing the food we eat to be di-
gested so as to do good, for undigest-
ed food does more harm than good
The Cordial contains food already d.
