iiasued, 1,026,491 immigrants came

countries during the past year.

Few' people know w'hat it costs
to defray the expenses of the j
United States government. The
Journal publishes a statement on
Another page showing the running
expenses of the different depart
ments. It requires more than half
n billion dollars to pay Uncle
SSam’s expenses for one year As
there are about eight,v-t!.ree mil
lion people in tb~ United States,
this is about ,50 for each man,
-*vo*v'ii and child

From the number of bills intro-1
duced in Congress during the first
few days of the session, it seems
that that honorable body is trying
to make our Arkansas legislature
look like thirty cents. The gen
tlemen should be careful how they
tiutt into our record like this. The j
Arkansas legislature meets again i
in 1907, and, while Congress has
a»ome the advantage of us in terri- i
tor.v, there’s lots of things in Ar
kansas yet that can be “regulat
ed.” _
