COMPOSITOR WANTED
The Journal wants a compositor
and can furnish permanent po
sition to .young man of sober hab
its, who has had as much as a year
or two’s experience. Apply atonce

If some people would deposit as
much money in some good bank
as they squander on frivilous
amusements and riotous living,
they would soon be in easy cir
cumstances.
Men cannot cheat and steal and
kill and oppress their fellows and
then buy their way into the hap
piness that comes from real use
fulness to mankind; the peace that
passeth understanding is not to be
bought with stolen money.
It is estimated that there have
been granted this year by the var
ious technical schools in the United
States over *2,600 baccalaureate
degrees in engineering courses.
Over 20,000 students in engineer
ing are now annually enrolled in
something like 125 technical
schools.
Our governor is getting up in
the pictures. He is touring the
country making speeches in the
interest of the Democratic Con
gressional candidates, and at sev
eral places where he has spoken
out in Oklahoma he has been met
by immense crowds carrying huge
banners bearing the inscription:
“Jeff Davis for Vice President in
190S.” _
Prominent fruit growers in the
vicinity of Rogers estimate that
Renton and Washington counties
will ship this year not less than
10,000,000 pounds of dried apples.
This means sixteen train loads of
twenty-five cars each. The two
■counties claim the distinction of
the d»ied apple champions
of the United States. Rogers is
the largest dried apple manufac
turing center and Fayetteville is
the largest shipping center for the
dried fruit.
A monthly trades day has l>een
inaugurated at Atkins, the second
one being held last Saturday, and
it is estimated that there were
‘2,000 people in town that day.
There was a movement on foot a
short time ago to have a monthly
trades day at Newark, but the
matter seems to have been drop
ped. Atkins is a small town
about the si/e of Newark—and
there is no reason why a monthly
trades day could not he as success
fully conducted here as at Atkins.
MISSOURIANS MAD AT JEFF
friends of Gov. Folk Didn’t Like
What Jeff Said About Him
It is reported from St. Louis
that frinds of Governor Folk are
indignant over remarks by Gov.
Davis of Arkansas in his speech at
Cape Girardeau, which they take
ias having been directed at the
Igovernor of Missouri.
' Gov. Davis said in his speech
! that a governor who would not use
| the pardoning power for the sake
| of humanity was a cross between
a wasp and a yellow jacket. The
allusion was received in silence.
The allusion, as understood by
I hearers of Gov. Davis, was to the
case of Mrs. Aggie Myers, sen
tenced to death for the murder of
her husband. Gov. Folk has thus
far taken no action on the request
I of her attorneys for commutation
Jof her sentence to life imprison
. ment.
As a result of Gov. Davis’ slight
of Gov. Folk it is said the Demo
:eratic state committee will not in
| vite him to make any more speech
es in Missouri.

ARKANSAS' INDEBTEDNESS
Comparison Made by Censes Bureau
Speaks Well For the State
A census bulletin just issued by
the department ut Washington
; making comparison of state indebt-1
j edness for the year 1H05 shows
that Arkansas ranks far above
other states with which this com
parison has been made. The bul
letin last issued deals with the in
debtedness of Arkansas, Tennessee
| Mississippi and Alabama, and the
; Arkansas debt is far lower than
I that of either of these states.
The bulletin shows the total and
! per capita indebtedness, less sink
I ing fund assets of these four states,
! as follows:
Tennessee—Aggregate, $32,717-'
130, state, $17,984,468: county
and minor civil division, $14,732,-1
662.
Alabama—Aggregate, $27,092,- j
343; state, $12,726,569; county and
minor civil division, $14,365,774.
Mississippi-Aggregate, $8,403,
920; state, $2,877,124; county and
tuinor civil division, $5,526,796.
Arkansas—Aggregate, $4,225,- j
715; state, §1,191,382; county and'
minor civil division, $3,034,333.
The Arkansas debt at the pres-;
ent time is $1,250,500. The bien
nial report of State Auditor Moore
will show that $1,271,000 is charg
ed against the state to other funds,
but that $20,500 of this debt has
been paid otf by money taken
from the sinking fund. This to
tal indebtedness is really not a
state debt, as the state owes noth
ing to an outside person or firm.
The state has no outstanding bonds
and the debt as charged against
the state is that owed to the school
fund from the general revenue
and sinking fund of the state.

vive.
