We will wager an imitation

the salary of its members at $1,000.

Governor Cummins, of Iowa, is
anything but n slack wad. Ho an
nounces that the state will stand
for tariff revision, Roosevelt or
no Roosevelt.
Rryan’s Commoner calls atten

lican papers that denounce ttie
South for political unity never
fail to congratulate the New
England states tor the same thing.
Speaker Henderson's paiaehuto
leap seems to have landed him on

Last Sunday’s Souvenir Edition
of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch I
was an elaborate price of modern
journalism. 'Flic Post-Dispaeh is
truly a great paper and is consul
cred by many as the best paper
published m St. Louis.
St. Louis is working >>p a repu
tation in divers ways. A doctor
of tl.at, town who was thrown
against a lamp post in a street
car collision and had three of his
ribs broken, was charged up w’tli
$8.50 damages to the lamp post.
While the grand jury h at it, it
would not he amiss to do a little
investigating into I he ret urns from
the recent general election. It
might uncovci some rolteness
there, also. The proceedings of
the county election commissioners
smell somewhat like a dead cat.
E. Al, Met riant, one of L’ulaski
county’s representatives, says he i
is very much in favor of a salary
for legislators, but will not vote
for a $500 or $600 salary, and
thinks the members of the genet
al assembly should be paid $1,000.
If tbe legislature should pass a I
bill making tbe salary ot its mem- !
bers $1,000 it would be a liltle'like j
rubbing it in on the people. Most
of those who voted for the amend
ment did so under the impression
that it would be a mutter of econ
omy to the state to adopt the sal- •
ary plan. 1 he Journal believes |
that $(>00 is fair compensation for
members of the legislature and
tint theirsulaiy should be payable
monthly. If we remember cor
rectly. the Independence county
members are both pledged to fa
vor a salary of $500, or not more
than $000.
The story sent out from Wash
ington that «J. 1*. Morgan is lie
coming alarmed at Teddy’s atti
tude on the trust question, is not
given much credence in demo
cratic circles. In tact,evi rybody
knows that Teddy wouldn’t harm
the dear little infants for any
thing on earl h.
If the grand jury takes up an
investigation of the primary elec
tion fraud we hope it will probe
to the bottom and let no guilty
man escape. If it does tins, we
are of the opinion that part of the
central committee, which is sup
posed by >.oiiie to be the embodi
ment of wisdom and perfection,
will bo deeper in the soup than
anyone else.
Speaker Henderson’s suJdcn
withdrawal from tlie congression
al race in Iowa is ilu* best thing
that lias happened for tin1 demo
crats since the campaign began.
It pitches the issues exactly where
they should be and puts the ad
ministration on the defensive on
the most important political issue
before the public—the tariff—and
besides this it will enthuse the
democratic orators and camoaign
ers as nothing else could have
done at this stage of the game. j
AN EXPLANATION.
The Newark Journal came to us this
week with one line in an article on i
hutless women scratched out. We have
some curiosity to know just why this!
was done, and hope tiro. Craig will
not keep us in the dark longer than
the next issue of his {viper. Tell us
what was under that ink mark, and
tell the truth about it.—Newport!

Berry Won’t Talk Politics.
Senator James H. liony, of
Bentonville, readied the city early
yesterday morning and slopped at
the Capital for the afternoon train
for Hot Springs, where ho will
attend the Confederate re-union.
Senator Berry is one of the few
public men of the dav who will
not talk to the '‘inquisitive re
pottei' on public questions »t
the same time being most cordial
and kindly. He will sometimes,
however, talk of the beauties of
North Arkansas, the tine apples
and pretty girls they raise up|
there. Tom Johnson's boom for
President, Speaker Henderson’s
action in declining to he nomi
nated, who will be the next Pres
ident, republican or democrat,
etc., are subjects on which he
draws the line, and refers every-!
body to the Congressional Record
for his reasons for voting on any!
question. Evidently he prefers
to talk ot the pink i becked apple!
and pretty girls.—Little Rock
Gazette.
Morgan Opposes Roosevelt.
Washington. Sept. 23. — Defeat
ed in his efforts to prevent the
.New \ r*i lv republicans from in
dorsing President Koosevelt, it is j
now the announced determination
of J. Pierpont Morgan to defeat
the nomination of Mr. Ifoosevelt.
If he fails to accomplish his pur
pose l>y securing the defeat of Mr
Koosevelt iu the republican eon-!
ventioti, he will try fo secure the!
nomination by the democrats of
Grover Cleveland, or some demo
i
ciat of that school,and will throw
him his support and that of the
interests he represents. This is
Morgan’s plan to punish Roose
velt for his anti-trust policy,
This is stated on the. authority
of a friend of Mr. Morgan, a man
who stands high in politics and
finance.
Awful Catastrophe.
The most tragic affair in (lie
history of the Colored Baptist
church occurred at Birmingham,
Ala., last Fi id ay night at the close
of the national convention of Col
ored Baptists. At the conclusion
of an address by Booker T. Wash
ington on ‘•Industry.” a personal
alteication between two delegates
over a trivial matter occurred near
the pulpit of the church, which
was crowded to suffocation, about
5,000 people being in the build
ing. and when some one cried
’•tight” it wras understood by the
t hi oil" as “tire,” and thinking
that the building was on Hro. a
general stampede took place. In
their mad rush to get out of the
building the __ negroes literally
went wild, and in the struggling
mass of humanity, more than mu
hundred persons uied from suffo
cation or were trumped to death
and about 150 seriously injured.
Residence of Col. Rector Burned.
Hot Springs, Sept. 24—The
residence of Col. E. W. Rector,
in the southern portion of the
city, was dislroved bv fire this
morning at 5 o'clock. (.July a few
articles of furniture and clothing
were -aved by the members of
the family, as they made a hur
ried exit from the hous •.
The fire ist!ought to have been
of incendiary origin. The resi
dence was valued at $8,000 with
m-ioance of $f,f>00. There was
no insurance on the furniture.

If Newark ever exppets to take
her proper place as the best little
city in North Arkansas she must
build sidewalks. This is a prob

later, and the sooner the better
for the town.
The meeting of the ex-Confede

Hud Sisk and Dr. J. A. William
son have bought the mercantile
business of Waldrip Bros., at
Magness, and will continue the
business under the firm name of
Sisk & Williamson. The business
will be under the personal super
vision of Mr. Sisk, which insures
the best of everything for those
who do business with the new firm.
Mr. Sisk has had a number of
years experience in the mercantile
business and thoroughly under
stands his calling. We predict for
the new firm a liberal share of the
public patronage.

will probably be increased to 75

Mary had a little Iamb— that
time has passed away. No lamb
could follow up the gait that Mary
goes today. For now she rides on
air-shod wheels, in skirts too short
by half; no lambkin shares her
airy flight, but you can see her
calf. But who is there that can
complain, or cry in woe, “Alas!"
So long as Mary's calf's alright,
the lamb can go to grass. !So all
the men delight to gaze, their joy
is not a. sham; for while the other
critter s out. they have no use for
lamb.—Ex.

This combination is the cause, and the Important cause, of
the wonderful popularity of the Kimball Pianos and Organs.
35 000 per year are not sufficient to supply the demand, as
the Kimball Company is several thousand orders behind in
shipments and is planning further large additions to “The
Greatest Factory in existence.”
What else could create the prodigious growth which “The
