Trenton, Mo., Sept. 22.—Judges Burgess rendered his opinion to-day in the case of the state at the relation of William Maggard against the eounty court of Grundy county, in volving the constitutionality of the local option law. Maggard applied for a dramshop license September 1, and the county court refused to grant on the sole ground of the adoption of the local option law. Maggard then applied to Judge Burgess for a writ of man- damus to compel the court to issue the license. An alternative writ was granted, and the case came to trial yesterday. Arguments were made pro and con as to the constitutionali- ty of the law, lasting from 7 o'clock last evening uniil 3 o’clock this even- ing, when Judge Burgess rendered his decision that the law was uncon- stitutional. An appeal will be taken to the supreme court at once. Judge Burgess is recognized as one of the ablest judges in the state, and lawyers in this section are pretty generally of the opinion that his de- cision will be affirmed by the supreme court.

Mr. Eprtor:—I ask space in the col- umns of your paper in vindication otf mys. lf£and the memorv of my honored husband and beloved children. There are reports going that my family were entirely destitute and money was made up tor my benefit. I now denounce this as utterly false in regard to my des- titution, for I had plenty ot friends, true and tried, who would gladly have doae all in their power for me or mine. Money as I have been intormed, was made u5; out of that sum Ihad $1.50, which was handed to me by a gentleman, whom (I thought) took it from his own pocket, I had no change about tre house expect- ing to hand it back to him, statimg also to him that I was expecting a draft in every mail, which I received the next morning betore b.eakt:st, but heard atterwards that this .: me gentleman had asked people to contribute for my =zne- fit I knew nothing of this, tor my husband was quite ill at the time, but was told by my servant. I went to several parties and paid out ot my ow: purse $11.75; y.arties are, Dr. Morris, Mr. Sisson and Mr. Bell; also paid Mr. ; Bennett tor a sack of flour that he had sent to my house. While I do teel hurt | atthe gentleman for his hasty move— ment. I will say I think his motive was a pure one. But I wish the people of Butler ana Bates county to understard that I am no pauper, did not spring from a family of paupers, for my family escutcheon is as grand and fair as any in WEDNESDAY.

While I thank those who) acted in good taith, and were truly my' friends, there are some I feel insulted when I think of them. One man—I will not say gentleman—said, boastingly, he had not received his money, as it was quite asum. Yes, a nickel in his dis- torted lenses is as large a sum as $500 in some people’s eyes, I have not his precious money, nor do I want it. I would, With all my southern blood, be a serf in some one’s kitchen betore I would accept succor from his low, degraded han I know not how much money was made up, nor do I care; but those who acted in good faith I thank— +t because it was done tor me, but because it showed a generous, good-hearted peo ple, but at the same time I feel humili- ated and insulted from the publicity 1 the attair. No person or persons wit had a soul would so wantonly wound m God alone knows I have had , County. feelin ps to break a stouter heart thar mine. Hoping these few lines will be satisfactory to triend and toe, I wii c ose by thanking those triepds who s- willingly and affectionately helped m in my at affliction. Never shall | cease to be gratetul. Respectfully, Satire R.
