CONFEDERATE HOME SCHEME.
Proposition for the State to Take
Charge to Be Pushed.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Jan 19.-Colonel
Vincent M~armaduke came to town this
afternoon as the advance guard of ex-Con-
federates who will storm the capital
tomorrow. The object of their coming is
to get a measure through the legislature
turning over to the state full control Of
and responsibility for the EX-Confederate
Home at HigginsviIle.
Colonel Marmaduke does not yet know
in just what form the proposition will be
made. Personally he is in favor giving to
the state outright the home and it's entire
property, which has grown to be quite
valuable, but Others influential in the
movement prefer to make a purely tempo
rary arrangement. The Marmaduke plan
contemplates the ultimate conversion of
the home into some other character OF
state eleemcsynary Institution, after the
special purpose for which private charity
established it no longer exists. The insti-
tuition is partly self-supporting and 1t Is
estimated that its maintenance would not
cost the state more than 81 200 a year.
II don't think We will have any use Tor
the home more than 20 years, if that long,"
said Colonel Marmaduke, with a suspic-
ious moisture in his eyes. 1.-THE poor old
wrecks who now need its kindly protect
ion won poster the world much longer.
They. are passing away rapidly. 1t is
taps and lights out with them now
oftener than with any other class of men.
81 believe the state will take charge OF
the home il we offer the property as a free
gift, simply because it ought to. / don't
think any considerable number OF repub-
lican members of the legislature will
oppose our proposition. The war is over,
and charity has driven hate and prejudice
out of the hearts of brave men.
"When our crowd gets here we will at
once get together and decide on a pro-
gramme."

THE BRIDGE.

II Lexington needed a bridge one
year ago, she needs it today. A man
who would ave ventured the assertion
q year ago that Lexington did moi need
a bridge would have beer ostracised
from society. In fact, the opinion
was then so general that a man who
did not contribute to the enterprise
was regarded (and justly soy as an
On ,my to the town and a dead head in
the community.
The same arguments that applied to
the question a year g apply with
greater force today. The same reasons
that prompted tho citizens to subscribe
si5s,0o0 m year ago, exist to prompt
them TO subscribe the same amount
today.
Was the bridge movement foolish a
year agoP Had the Santa Fe road
entered a contract then, should we
have built the bridgeP These are the
questions we should ask ourselves
today. II we answer them in the
affirmative, we will build the bridge.
If the answer be in the negative then
we admit that Lexington was full of
fools a year since.

THE PASSING OF FILLEY.

Boss Filley has acted his little part
in the political drama, and has about
retired from the stage of political
action.
For many years Chauncey Ives Filley
has been the sole agent, owner and
director of the republican party in this
state. He dictated the nominees,
managed the campaign and distributed
the federal patronage. He was chief.
What he said went, it nattered not
what might be the damages. He
owned the machine and disposed the
oil that kept it in motion. His grasp
upon the party in this state was equal
to the one Plat exercises in New York
aud Quay in Pennsylvania.
But Chauncey |. Filley is passing.
His plumes have been trailed IN the
dust, and IN the bitter school of politi-
cal adversely the skiing bee" has lost his
grip. His power killed him. He
could not stand the good luck his vic
tories brought HIM, and he ventured
too far in the cold. He drew to a bob
tail flush IN clubs and got a spade.
With 9 thousand federal jobs in the
Jackpot Chauncey 1. risked his all,
and lost. Warner and BittInger had
the clubs, and Kerens won on a royal
flush. Filley bluffed, but Kerens called
the hand. Heuceforth Kerens is king.

A GARD.

In behalf of the Children's Home Society
of Missouri. and the many little boys n
girls who are provided Christian home
education and advantages under its sys-
tenn, the writer, as superintendent of the
fifth district, wishes to tender the thanks
of the institution to the benevolent hearts
OF Lexington for their generous contribu-
tions for its support. 1 have presented
the work to two congregations here-the
Christian and Presbyterian-the sum of
the two collections amounting to $3.50;
and besides this, personal contributions
to the amount of S25 50-total, $57. OF
this, two gentlemen took each an annual
membership, paying IS each. Included
in the church collections, some benevo-
lent heart at the Presbyterian church,
whose name is unknown to the writer,
gave $40. God bless him.. There are others
who yet might generously assist us.
A mass meeting, to give others an
opportunity to aid this work, will bs held
in the Methodist church in this city on
the evening of the second Sunday In Feb
ruary, aud we hope all people, regardless
Of denomination, will be present and
contribute as well as they can conscien-
tiously afford. AS the cost OF placing
each child averages u little over $50, Lex
ington's contribution of S57, already in, is
only a little over the Expense OF one
child.
See that little pleading face?
A plea for bread, a plea for place.
IL knows not love; 1T only knows
The world is coldI-and sadly longs
For fathers hand and mothers songs.
Oh, boarded wealth, break, break Thy
chainI
Invest in that which bears again.
With faith in Christ, perpetual shod,
Remember, "Of such is the Kingdom of
God!"
