The exigencies of the t imes de
mand a new state house for Ark
ansas and we hope the legislature
will definitely settle this matter.
President Roosevelt has not made
any friends in the South by acting
a hog over so small a matter as the
Indianola, Miss., postoffice squab
ble. _

alarmed. What can we do for you#
The recent severe blizzard and
the coal famine brought keen dis
tress to thousands of families in
the North and mnn,\ deaths from
cold and privation have been re
ported in the daily papers.
The fact that Arkansas built
more miles of railroad in I'.'Ol! than
any state in the union except two,
proves that old Arkansas is com
ing to the front. Oklahoma built
570 miles, Texas t'."i miles and
Arkansas 871 miles.
The Kavenden Hustler brags on
its state news service, furnished b_\
the use of patents, when the fact
is, three-fourths of the Hustler's
state news, like that in all patent
papers, is from twelve to sixteen
days old. It seems to us that any
thing over ten days old is very
stale news. But, of course, Broth
er Chun has to blow his horn oc
casionally to keep from getting
lost.

It would take two years of the
governor’s salary to pay for that
fifty-five hundred dollar mansion
and, as he claims to have been a
poor man when he was elected,are
we to understand that our beloved
Jeff has been bleeding the trusts
on the sly?
The Austin (rrit, which was pub
lished for awhile as an all-home
print. has adopted patent insides
again. The greatest drawback to
the well-being of a majority of the
country publishers of Arkansas is
their inability to break away from
that old habit of using patents.
Judge Alton 15. Parker, of New j
York, is being prominently men
tioned as a democratic presidential
candidate. Judge Parker seems to
be all right and wears the distinc
tion of having never been defeat-j
ed for an office. And that is quite,
a distinction for a New York dem
oerat
—
This is how an exchange figures i
it out: From a bushel of corn a
distiller gets four gallons of whis-j
ky, which retails for sit!. The
government, gets sttUiO; the farm-i
er who raised the corn gets forty)
cents; the railroad gets a dollar;<
the distiller gets the retailer;
gets sT and the consumer gets
drunk.
If the present session of the leg
islature will make provisions for
the building of an addition to the
insane asylum, the maintuinence of
u reform school, settle the state
convict farm question, provide for
a new state house and put its mem
bers on a decent salary it will be
entitlted to go down in history as
the best in twenty years.
If (hero was not a decent white
republican in Sunflower county,
Miss., to take the postoftiee at
Indianola, then there would be
some excuse for the stublxtrn ac
tion of President Roosevelt in clos
ing the postoftiee at that place.
Hut as it is, Roosevelt has proven
himself to be a very childish, nar
row-gauged man, totally beneath
the dignity of the high oflice acci
dentally thrust upon him, and has
clearly proven himself an inveter
ate enemy of the South.
And Guvnor l>avis, our Jeff,
the champion of the one gallis I
crowd, has gone and bought a big
fifty-five hundred mansion in Lit
tle Rock. Now don’t that beat the
duece? The next thing we know
i he'll give away his dorgs and jine
S the the upper ten crowd and then
we'uns of the one gallis tribe will

a cold and cruel world, with no
one to protect and defend us. And \
the awful, bloodthirsty Octopus
; will then walk right into our cabins,
swipe anything it wants, ram it
down in its seat pocket and walk

(DHL BURNED TO DEATH
Miss Cora fletcalf, Aged Fourteen
flet Death in a Horrible
Marnier.
Miss Cora Metcalf, the fourteen
year-old daughter of Joe Metcalf,
met with with a painful accident
Monday, from which she died
Wednesday night.
She was kindling a lire in the
kitchen stove and in some manner
her clothing became ignited. She
became frighted and started to run
out in the yard. Her sister started
toiler rescue,but the frightened girl
outran her. The father, who was
in an adjoining room, heard the
screams of the unfortunate girl,
and grabbing a quilt off the bed,
started in pursuit. He succeeded
in catching his daughter and,
wrapping the quilt around her,
extingushed the flames, but not
until the unfortunate young lady
was horribly burned.
Her clothing was almost entire
ly burned from her body and she
was borne to the house and every
thing possible done for her that
could be done by skillful and will
ing hands.
Her condition, however, was
such that she was beyond the aid
of human skill and on Wednesday
night death came to her relief.
A Corpse at the Throttle.
Knoxville, Tenn., .fan. 11.-Pas
sengers on an incoming Knoxville
& Ohio train rode several miles
this afternoon with the hand of a
corpse at the throttle of the engine.
The train left Buckeye, Tenn., on
time and ran through to Carey
ville without stopping. Fireman
Matlock knew something was
wrong when they failed to stop,
and stepped to the engineer's side
of the engine, lie found the en
gineer. A. Young, dead and he
immediately stopped the train.
There was a wound on tin* left side
of the engineer’s head, and the
supposition is that a piece of stone
fell from the side of a cut through
the mountains and killed him in
stantly. The train ran perhaps
eight miles after Young was killed.

Shooting Affray at Brinkley.
Brinkley, dan. 10. -Between 8
and it o’clock last night N. E.
House, a druggist, and \V. J. Ter
rell had a combat in which pistols
were used. House tired two shots
at close range but missed the mark.
Terrell closed in on him, threw
him to the ground and tired two
shots, taking effect in the fingers
of House’s right hand, and then
struck him several blows on the
head, inflicting bad bruises. It
seems that there had been bad find
ings between them for some time.
TIRE.D AND
WORN OUT.
Women Need
a constant supply of blood-making ma
terial or tlieir systems will break down.
The complicated female organism is
so delicately adjusted as to Tie easily
thrown out of balance. As a result,
health and strength are affected by
divers diseases. Motherhood, family',
society all levy such drains upon her
strength that most women break under
the nervous tension. The demands
upon her nervous strength are much
greater than similar demands of the
opposite sex. Hence she must be sup
plied in greater measure with the ele
ment—iron—that gives strength. The
reason women feed tired and worn out
and suffer from headache, pains in the
back and limbs, etc., is because they
have used tip their supply of iron.
Menstruation trouble Is largely caused
by lack of irou.
Dr. Harter’s
Iron Tonic
supplies this element. It enriches tho
blood and restores what strain has
used up.
Augusta, Ark., May 10,1901.
ig sold Dr. Harter’s remedies
for thirtyyearsI can cheerfully recommend
■ them. 1 might add that t
I hold In special favor Dr. Har
ter’s Iron Tontc, and would
Wag recommend it as the very
“ m best preparation of iron I am ac
quainted with. To weak, worn out
women, and those troubled with nerv
ousness. poor digestion, and pale, thin
blood, I believe ft to be a panacea.

which is practically the same as
the one that was introduced by

failed to oass.

municipal dispensary bill, a text of
which was published in The Jour

The control of the dispensary is to
be with the city council entirely.
INSANE ASYLUM ANNEX.
Senator Norwood introduced a
bill providing for the erection of

blacks in order that the amounts
paid by each race may be received
