PIGS ARE PIGS

FULTON, Mo-, Nov. 1s.-Pigs may
be pigs, but there is a vast difference
in them, according to a Fulton mer-
chant, who knows whereof he speaks.
In the future if he dabbles in the
market he will require a blue print
of the entire transaction, even
though he got out of his first deal
with his whole hide.
A close-to-Fulton farmer offered to
sell him some pigs cheap. The bust
ness mar decided here was a good
chance to make some money on the
side and asked the price of the pork
ers. The farmer said they were nice,
fat piglets, weaned m everything.
He thought 50 a head ought to about
hit the spot. The business man
jumped at the chance. He knew
where he could sell them for $3.50
apiece. The next day the farmer
came to town with eight cute little
guinea pigs and pocketed his check
for SIG and the merchant was a much
wiser man. But the story does not
end there. The farmer proved to be a
good sport, so he tore up the check.
He thought the joke worth the trouble
and especially when he saw the look
on the merchants face when he de-
livered the pigs.

TO DEPORT 500

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-More
than five hundred Russian radicals re-
main to be deported, it was said today
at the department of labor. All ex-
cept forty of these are at liberty on
bail, but the others are held in con-
finements at Deer Island, Boston, and
Ellis Island, New York, as they are
regarded as too dangerous to be al
lowed at liberty eve temporarily.
Delay in deporting Russians was
explained at the department to be due
to a refusal of the Scandinavian
countries to receive the %dcportees and
to the closing of the frontier between
Finland and Russia.
Negotiations between this country
and Esthonia looking to the sending
of the Russians home through Esth'
onia son are to eb resumed, officials
said.

Long Says State
Democrats Lost But
Temporarily mo

The following interesting letter
from Breckenridge Long, who was
candidate on the Democratic Ticket
for U. S. Senator from Missouri,
sounds an optimistic note that will be
of interest to every member of the
party. His letter follows:
November IS, 1920.
To the Mexico Ledger.
My Dear Friends
We have lost temporarily. A COM
bination of circumstances contributed
to it. The reaction which naturally
set in after the excitement and en-
thusiasm of the war was the contrib
uting factor. Then, the processes of
REIMBURSEMENT brought dissatisfaction
and, in some instances, resentment.
We have the satisfaction, however,
of having contributed enormously to
the welfare of our state and of our
country through the greatest period
in the history of the world. Great con-
structive measures in the days before
the war, wonderful achievement in the
war and a program for world peace
and reconstruction after the war are
sources of satisfaction to every DEM
ocrat.
We carried on a great campaign
and recognize adversely but do not ad-
nit defeat. We feel we were right
and would rather lose right than win
wrong.
Let US not be discouraged. The fu-
ture is bright. Next time adversely
will overwhelm our adversaries and
the people will again express their
confidence in the principles and prac-
tees of Democracy. To that end let
US continue our organization and
maintain our spirits.
My faith is mistaken and my con-
fidence in my party is supreme.
Sincerely your friend,
BRECKENRIDGE LONG.
