*>ulaski (irand Jury to Re-Open
Legislative Investigation
January the 8th.
The Arkansas Gazette says that
the boodle investigation, which
lias already resulted in the indict
ment of seven members of the last
General Assembly on charges of
liribery, will lie resumed when the
JPuluski county grand jury recon
venes Monday, .January s. It is!
expected that within the next few
•lays several members of the leg
islature, as well as others who, it
as thought, will be able to furnish
the grand jury with valuable in- i
formation, will be summoned to
appear before that body during
the week beginning January 8.
Senator B. E. McFerrin of
Newton county has already been
summoned to appear before the
4*rand jury, but it is not known in
what connection Senator McFer- j
tin's testimony is desired. Ilej
was a witness for the defense in
the trial of Senator Covington,
president of the senate, on a
charge of accepting $2,500 in con
nection with the state capitol bill,
ilis testimony was confined to a
conversation at which he was pres
ent between Senator Covington
and T. L. Cox and also between
Senator Covington and M. 1>. L.
Cook.
EVERY TOWN HAS THEM.
If there is anything on earth
worse than a husky boy who eats
regular at a family table three
times a day and refuses to supply
the larder, it has not been discov
ered. Yet every town is atHicted
with boys of this kind. They loaf
• round the streets from morning
till night, save for the time spent
•n consuming grub earned by fath
er and mother, smoking cigar
ettes, chewing tobacco, spitting
on the sidewalk and making ob
atcene remarks concerning women
•nd girls who pass by. They arc
not worth the powder it would
take to blow them into kingdom
come and they never will be us
less they change their ways. They
are worse than any of the low
animals, for even the hogs hustle
out and root for themselves asi
noon as they discover the fact that
they con do it. The boy who loafs j
while his father toils deserves at
tention. He should get it in the
ahape of a moist elm club.

OUR BEAUTIFUL LANGUAGE.
“And now that you have been
elected to the United States sen
ate,’' said the exultant committee,
“we are sure you will stand by
the people in their light against
wrong.”
“That 1 will,” ejactulated Sen
ator-elect Graball. “I will stand
by the people.”
When the last of the committee
had retired and left the successful
candidate alone he muttered to
himself.
“What a convenient language
ours is, to he sure. 1 didn’t say 1
would stand with the people. I
merely said I would stand by.”
