The pistol toter should go—even
down to the officer who wears ever-
lastingly a bin 4-1 strapped to his
body.
The bicycle trust has collapsed.
Thus is proved the truth of the fact
that when a combination under-
takes to control fifty to 100 manu-
facturing establishments its own
weight will make it topple —Dallas

The speech made by Jeff Davis at
Conway is garbage and he. is a ga-
loot. It is a reflection upon the
state of Arkansas that such as he
should even offer himself for elec-
tion to the chief office within the
gift of the people.
The senators from New Hamp-
shire are calling each othei hard
names—Gallinger says Chandler is a
liar and Chandler alleges that Gal-
linger is a criminal. We suspect
both are right; go it and let a ca
lamity befall him who first cries
hold 1
One man uses a pistol to despoil
another of his property; that is
called robbery and is punishable.
One great nation uses 13-inch guns
to despoil a weaker people of life
liberty and the pursuits of happi-
ness; this is called conquest and its
reward Is glory.
After all there never was any
VanWyck boom. For VanWyck
represents no idea or principle in
politics and betides lives in New
York. The day when New York
furnished candidates for any party
has passed. Van Wyck may have
been put forward as a decoy but he
was never the real thing. Dallas
News.
The negro is fast learning by ex-
perience. One has recently declined
an appointment as postmaster in
an Alabama town. In this he is
wiser than the President who ap-
pears to have forgotten the recent
troubles which arose over the ap-
pointment of a negro to be post-
master in one of the southern
states. The president should know
that the white man of the South
will submit to negro rule only when
he is dead; and any attempt to in-
sult this section by such appoint-
ments is nothing less than fuel ad-
ded to the fires of hatred which al-
ready existed between the races of
the South.
Among the railroaders who have
heretofore made their home here
tint who have been elsewhere for a
time we notice on the street today
W. H. DeFrance who is running a
train out of Quincy Illinois to
Council Bluffs Conductor Hobson
who Is on a road in lowa and XV.
H. Boomer who stills all about over
the. country in a Pullman car as a
conductor. We were glad to shake
all of their hands and learn they
were doing well.

I The reports are that from 25 to
|SO per cent of the soldiers In the!
Philippines are not available for
duty. The New York World says
that the Nebraska volunteer regi-
ment has 2UO men able to do ser-
vice; that South Dakota has 275:
that Montana has2Bo; that Kansas
has 280 and that Washington has
263. We believe this war is wrong
and cruel; we believe it is carried
on for the benefit of the great trust
combinations of this country; we
believe tl.e Filipinos are entitled to
self-government as much so as the
Americans we can not but admire
the gallant fight those people are
making for independence. We think
it a disgrace that in so short a time
after the people of the United
States have gained their independ-
ence of the mother country they
should be found in martial array
crushing the holy aspiration of lib-
erty that rises up spontaneously in
the heart of every worthy man.
Again we insist that the officers
who have the pension claims under
consideration shall do their duty
both to the state and the applicants
for the pensions; there is no danger
of any applicant’s not receiving jus-
tice at the hands of those officers;
the danger is in his getting more
than is due him. The burdens of
government are increasing out oi
all proportion to the wealth of the
country. In the last twenty-five
yeais the wealth of the state has
doubled and according to all reason
this should cause a reduction in the
tax rate; but it is not so the cry is
for more taxes. The true doctrine
of democratic simplicity and econ-
. omy is antiquated profligacy is the
' rule. We feel that every old Con-
federate soldier who is in hard cir-
cumstances should be aided to spend
his last days in peace and quiet but
’ this should not be the occasion of
' speculation and one who would thus
’ take advantage of the state to
work a deception should be denied
his request for not one farthing is
due him.
A Rich Man’s Project.
A rich man’s statement tliat he
proposes to devote almost his entire
fortbne to charitable works has
aroused much discussion. This is
because it will accomplish much
good. It is a praiseworthy endeav
or but there are many other agen-
cies which accomplish just as touch
good Take Hostetter’s Stomach
Bitters for instance—the great
American remedy. For fifty years
it has cured constipation dyspepsia
and all the ills which arise from
weak digestion. This medicine will
keep the stomach in good shape and
the bowels regular. It is a wonder-
ful restorative tonic and health
builder. It is also a preventive for
malaria fiver and ague. Ask for
it and insist upon having it. See
that a private revenue stamp cov-
ers the neck of the bottle.
A GOOD THING.
The Gate City Building & Loan
Association of Texarkana is pre-
paring to open its stock book Cot
subscription to series number 4.
Its phenomenal success in the past
has created a demand for its stock
necessitating the issueing of a new
series six months in advance of the
customary date for starting such
new series.
The advantage of a Home Build
ing & Loan Association managed
by home people and confining its
operations to a territory over which
its directors can have personal su
pervision has now become well es
tablished. It you wish to borrow
money to improve property on one

Eczema!
The Only Cure.
Eczema is more than a skin disease
and no skin remedies can cure it. The
doctors are unable to effect a cure and
their mineral mixtures are damaging
to the most powerful constitution. The
whole trouble is in the blood and
Swift’s Specific is the only remedy
which can reach such deep-seated blood
di cases.
Eczema broke oaten my daughter and con-
tinued to spread until _
her hend was entirely aQfflwMWi

by several good doctors est
but grew worse and the KT
dreadful disease spread £3l

| THCBE BLOT MACHINE CASES
The Texarkana contingent that
went to Boston yesterday all re-
turned on the evening train. The
cases interesting this city having
been set for Wednesday. Sime of
these cases will prove to be expen
sive to some of us as witnesses are
summoned to go to Boston who
know nothing of the cases for which
they are summoned at least they
say so. We think the officers should
try and throw some protection
arouud the people as far as possible
when making up their witness list
as the county and state do not foot
the bills but it comes out of the
poor man’s pocket. Texas has some
good laws and a lot of bad ones
and among the rotten acts none
are more diabolical than to have a
lot of poor men summoned from
their work to tel) what one man
knows. Take for instance the slot
machine cases there is not a man
summoned but what would say
“yes I am cognizant of the ma-
chines being run at the place the
indictment calls but as to dates
who played whose machine it was
the witness’ mind becomes a blank.
They do not do this to protect
the game or its keeper for many of
us let dates pass us by without
notes and as to ownership
we never stop to ask or do we care.
We do not write this to protect the
slot machine —far from it—for we
regard the machine as an educator
of the youth to form habits of tak-
ing chances at ail kinds of hazzard
games and the country would be
better off without them. AX’hat we
need is officers who will tell the pro-
prietors of houses where these ma-
chines are run to take them out
and you bet your last penny out
they will come; this fact has been
demonstrated within the past week.
This makes it easier on all concern-
ed than to let them run for an in-
definite time and then make arrest
and summons half a hundred wit-
nesses to make a trip to the county
site and pay out their money and
lose time from work.
There is more catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together and until the last few years was
supposed to bo incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease and prescribed local remedies and
by constantly failing to euro with local
treatment pronounced it incurable. Sci-
ence lias proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease and therefore requires con-
stitutional treatment. Hall's catarrh cure
manufactured by F. .1. Cheney Co. To-
ledo Ohio is the only constitutional cure
on the market. It is taken internally In
doses from ten drops to a toaspoonful. It
acts directly on tin- blood and mucous sur-
faces of the system. They oiler < )no hun-
dred dollars for any case it fails to cure.

The London Spectator though fa-
voring a firm and if need be a forci-
ble policy toward President. Kruger |
says:
“By all means let those who think
we have no right to interfere in the |
Transvaal speak out and let them [
denounce what they believe to be [
an oppressive and unjustifiable pol
icy. We trust the day will never
come when Englishmen will be
afraid of proclaiming that their
country is in the wrong when they
honestly think her to be so.”—New
York World.
Shall the people of the United
States be denied any less liberty
than Englishmen in the matter of
free speech? “Traitor" is applied
to the men who criticise the admin-
istration in the undertaking and
management of the Philippine war.
Some justify the undertaking of the
war but criticise its management
thereby becoming half traitor. We
haven’t enough regard for an
American who would call his fellow
countrymen traitors because they
have views contrary to his own to
feel in the 'east unkindly toward
him but we pity the poor fellow on
account of his littleness.

remain in the cabinet until he can

The Boy ai a Farm Product.
The grandest product of the farm
is the boys and girls it produces- In
every avenue of life where thrift
capacity and energy are required
the man who pushes to the front is
the son of a farmer. He has intel-
lect and push to “get there.' There
is a kiud of broad intellect of the
all around sort running through all
his life. He has a constitution
that enables him to endure hard
tabor. It is a notable fact that in
all our colleges the very best stu-
dents are boys from the farms. In
the work shops in the halls of leg-
islation at the forum in the pulpit
niaty-nine hundredths of the men
who stand upon the summit were
once boys on the farm. They went
barefooted wore patched clothes
and worked for their bred. Less
than one-half of the people of this
nation live in the country and feed
themselyes and the other half too.
With a few dollars in his pocket
and a few books under his arm and
his valise in the other he starts to
school. Dusty and tired he is al-
most begrudged a cup of cold wa
ter by some wealthy millionaire in
the city suburbs but some day in
the by and by that same million-
aire will be voting for him for con-
gress or some other high position
of honor. We may well ask in as-
tonishment: Where did the boy
get his noble purpose and uufault-
ering courage? They were born in
him on the farm. Tney were wov-
en into his fiber by years of haid
toil and seif-denial on the old coun-
try homestead where the very
warp and woof of his young life de-
veloped energy and character for
future possibilities. Hurah for the
farmer's boy I —Montana liuit

prostrating me aud rendering me
unfit for my duties at this hotel.
About two years ago a traveling
salesman kindly gave me a small
bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
Much to my surprise and delights its
effects were immediate. Whenever
I felt syptoms of the disease I would
fortify myself against the attack
with a few doses of this valuable
remedy. The result has been very
satisfactory and' almost ■ complete

We should organize a street fair

gasoline stoves. Why? Because
t lie new gasoline stoves work per-
fectly keep the kithen cool and
pleasant and do away with the
oother of having wood and kindling
around But the chief reason is
ou account of the cheapness of
gasoline as compared with other
fuel for cooking purposes.
By actual test it has been found
that four gallons of gasoline Will go
as far as 1000 feet of gas. Com-
pare the cost and you will see the
saving will justify the use of gaso-
