The Breakers Hoodooed.

The Breakers journeyed all the
way to Camas, Wash, Sunday to
teach the natives OF that en,crpris-
ing village how to play ball. They
discovered before they go, through,
however, that someone else was
mean enough TO teach them before
the Breakers came upon the scene.
II was certainly he.ce how the
camasi,es slaughtered our team
when they met in battle array.
They put il all over them and
smote them hip and thigh, aud

Bredeson says there will be no mon
key business about it either. When
the hour comes the youths under
age must get under cover. The
only difference between us and the
boys is that we have a badge on
our iace which the police recognize
as title clear to seat in the whis-
ker shop, and for that reason they
do not pull us when out late and
the rest of the boys should not hesi-

us to be in early. We trust none

What would YOU have done had
YOU been in Capt, Dorau'S place on
the Columbia p is the question that
has been raised 10y the Telegram
and responded TO 10y a number of
individuals in various ways Some
think he met a glorious death, while
others believe he acted in a very
foolish manner in going down with
his ship while chance remained of
his escaping wa,ery grave. Our
opinion OF the matter is that the
Captain used very poor Judgment
in acting as he did. II was case
OF suicide IN way, aud an act that
he will no doubt be held responsible
for in the world TO come. Only
that class OF people who are eNten-
sive novel readers and have im-
bibed strange ideas concerning a
glorious death" can find an ex-
cuse for him. His family would no
doubt sooner have a live husband
and father than dead hero. We
do not know what we would have
done, but think il we had not got
ratified by the disaster we would
have cinched on two or three full
grown life preservers, done the best
we could for the passengers before
the vessel sunk, and when she went
down escaped with them il we pos
sibly could.

Mrs. Weinant, wife of Chas. Wein-
ant, died very suddenly about 10
O'Clock Thursday morning at her
home eleven miles northwest OF this
city. Mrs. Weinant had been In
usual good health up to the time OF
her death and it is supposed that was
stricken with heart failure. De-
ceased had reached an extreme old age
and was formerly resident of this
city for several years. Cha s. Weinant,
her husband, who survives, though In
feeble health, formerly conducted a
bakery on the south side of the square
but with his family moved to bis pre-
sent farm north Of Mexico about fif-
teen years ago.
Besides her husband, deceased
leaves three sons, Charlie and Will, OF
Glasgow, Mo-, and Frank Weinant
who lives on q farm north of this city.
Weinant family because of the early
years spent in Mexico, is will remem-
bered by all the older settlers among
whom they have great number Of
friends. To these, to the family and
relatives, the LEDGER extends its
sincere sympathy in their sad bereave-
ment.

AIN COUNTY, MISSOURI, THURSDAY, JANUARY II, 1901.
WANTS NO MAIL ON SUNDAY
Senator Burkett Thinks all Postoi.
fees Should Close.

WASHINGTON, d. @, Jan. 10 Sem
ator Burkett, of Nebraska, will lead a
crusade against the handling OF mail
matter on Sunday and in opposition to
keeping postoflices open on that day.
He will at an early date introduce a
joint resolution requiring that all
postoflices throughout the United
States be closed on Sunday, and that
carriers shall not be compelled to per-
form any labor on that day.
Senator Burkett says that In his
home city Of Lincoln be has observed
that large proportion OF those who
hasten to the postofflce on Sunday are
silly girls expecting letters from dis
tant sweethearts. Some business men
go there as a sort Of regular habit on
their way to or from church. He has
made careful observations and satis-
fed himself that legitimate business
interests will not suffer by postoffices
being closed ON Sunday. 1t Is the in
tention of Mr.. Burkett to insist that
the posioffices In St Louis and other
great commercial centers be closed
just the same as those in the country
towns and villages.

THE question before the people Of
Mexico at this time Is not whether Mex
leo should be prohibition town, but as
to how high the license should be. In
order to do away with saloons alto
gether the matter must be submitted
to vote of the people Of the entire
city. The question Of raising the
license is In the hands OF the city
council. With high license the
number OF saloons would be kept
down. Fulton gest 5000 per year
license and has two saloons. Moberly
gets $1,000 PEI year and has nine
saloons. The point at issue seems
plain t. the LEDGER. Ii resolves IT,
self at this time into a business pro-
position, pure and simple. The higher
the license the less number OF saloons
Mexico will have.

Another saloou Patitioner.

Gene Tomlinson, fer years barten-
ter in the Ringo Saloon, is circulating
a petition among the business men in
the Rlngo block for a saloon license.
Mr.. Tomlinson states that he thinks
he has already secured the required
number of signers and will go before
the county court with bis petition at
the next regular sitting Of that body.
George Hall, who lately purchased the
Kennan building just north Of the city
hall for the purpose Of himself start
ing q saloon, has abandoned the pro-
ject, leaving the field open to Mr..
Tomlinson and Harve Eubanks. II
the license is granted, and it seems
that there is little doubt but that it
will, the new bar will be located In
the corner room Of Mr.. Halls newly
bought building.

THE city council backed by the peo
pie and not those interested In tht
saloon business will dictate theamount
Of license to be paid for saloons In
Mexico. In the meantime those who
are opposed to any saloons at all
should walt until that matter is sub.
mitted TO the vote Of the people be.
fore they stir up dust TO hide the real
issue now before the city. 1t always
happens IN Mexico that when its con.
|servative people try to get a high IL
cense councilman elected that forsom
reason or another an attempt Is made
to elect prohibition councilmen.
This being the case the saloon men
easily slip In low license councilmen.
Abuse OF the saloon men or those who
favor high license brings no results
except Joy to those who want the II.
cense kept down low. There can be
but one issue at tais time, and that Is
whether we should have o low license
and a large number of saloons, or a
high license and few saloons. Put
the license up and show no fayoritism
to those who are willing to pay the
price. Then II you want to do away
with the saloons altogether submit.the
proposition to7the people and have it
voted on. Let's have a square deal.

A FEW OF our citizens are apparent.
ly in the dark concerning the mission
of the associated charity organiza.
tion here. Several days ago the wri.
ter saw citizen, Of benevolent turn,
taking up collection for a poor fam
lily. Upon Investigation 1t was found
that the family was being cared for by
the charity association and were in
no way wanting for necessities.
While such benignity on the part OF
individuals is commendable, yet IL is
a force directly opposing the good the
charity. association is attempting to
work. Too much charity makes the
poor dependent and does not aid
them to independence as ii should.
If you know Of suffering and want,
inform the united charities who will
attend the case Immediately. The
association is a concrete organization
of all former charitable societies OF
Mexico and cares for all creeds alike.
The citizens are called on often
enough for donations and II they feel
that they have money for the relief OF
the suffering give 1t to the associa-
tion, where 1t will be distributed over
a wide field and not encourage indo-
lence or make the poverty stricken
forget how to aid themselves.

10 tue Eultur OF lne LeuRer,
MEXICO, NO., Jan. 12.-Dear Sir:
In yesterdays daily an item appears
that the Mayor is said by some not to
be In favor Of high license of saloons.
Now, Mr.. White, If you will but kind
ly inquire Of each minister of this city
who fully understands Just exactly
where the Mayor stands on this ques-
tion, and II they had kept faith with
him in regard to some Of the disgrace
full and highly hilarious scenes which
was enacted In the Methodist Episco-
pal church, South, on last Thursday
night would never been enacted.
The people, many of them myself
among the restl thought they were
going to union prayer meeting, where
notmore than a week ago the church
bells rang out the old year and rang
in the new, and the ringing said:
"Peace on earth and good will to
man." The papers said up to that
evening that the prayer meeting would
be on. So many were led TO go, but
alas, they were furnished more talk
and comment than any vaudeville
show that has been in the opera bcuse
for a long time. The Mayor desires
the good will Of the people, the help
of all the people, the prayers Of the
preachers, but he has also an idea land
some will think 1t a good one) that II
the preachers will attend strictly to
their church services and find out
just where many Of their membership
stand, they possibly can run the
church to better advantage, both
socially and morally. At the same
time be will try, With the help OF the
city councilmen, who have been elect
ed by the people to run the city.
