THE ARKANSAS ELEcTsoN.

The Arkansas election last Monday
went Democratic by an Overwhelming
vote. The Republicans and Green
hackers fused in many counties and en-
deayored to secure the local Offices, but
the result shows that little or nothing
was accomplished in this way. An
amendment to the Constitution provid-
ing for the readjustment of the State
Indebtedness was defeated by large
vote, the proposed amendment meaning
nothing less than Reputation.

WHAT ~ INDEPGXDExT THINKS.

The Boston LEeraid, one of the ablest
Independent journals of thOcountry,
speaking of Wade Harnpton's recent
speach in Virginia, which has been SO
much distorted and misquoted by Re
publicans, very fairly observes, we sup
pose he simply meant. to say that Lee
and jackson fought for what they be-
believed to be the sacred right Of local
selfgovernment. No doubt they honest
ly believed that they were fighting fer
that cause. However mistaken was
their view, Wade Hampton and his
friends have an undoubted right to con-
tend by peaceful means for that for
which Lee and jackson contended on
the bloody fields of battle"

Some journals are circulating the
statement that Hancock is a Roman
Catholic, hoping thereby to ipjure him
to some extent, as some people are pref
udiced against that denomination. lie
would need no, apology if it were true,
but as it is, he is not Roman Catho-
lie, nor is he, we believe, a member Of
any church himself although his wife
and family are members Of Tie Protest
ant Episcopal church, in which he holds

the Gulf Stream,

At recent meeting of the So
ciety of Austrian Civil Engineers.
Mr.. Carl Englehardt gave an in
teresting account Of the natural
supply Of heat on the continent OF
Europe. He showed that certain
European, countries are favored
over otLer parts of the world by
natural influences of. the. upper,
Etesion winds, the desert of Sahara
and particularly the Gulf, Stream.
When the Sahara was still. sea,
tie climate of Southern -Earope
and Northern Africa, was many
dcgSees colder than at preseat.-
Many tao1sand years ago, before
the Isthmns Of Papama had been,
raised above the level OF tho. sea,
the Gulf stream flowed, between
North and South. America. That
was the glacial period in Northern
Europe. Scandinavia and Finland
were covered with ice, moose and
reindeer aboundcd in Italy and,
Spain, and the South. of Europe
was inhabited by race similar to.
the Laplanders. The Vosges and
the Black forest were covered by
glaciers. Through the rising Of
the Central American Istbmus, the
Gulf streap was turned. eastward,
and Europe energed from the ice,
period.
In how comparatively shoI5 tfmo
the climate of a country can change,
is proved by Greenland, WHICH was
discovered S92 years ago, and owes.
is name to the verdant valleys and;
blooming meadows which greeted
the eyes of the first settlers. Even

Arctic circle. The mean tempera-
tnrc of the most southern point of
Grceh land is the same as that of

The drficctfon OF the Gulf stream
will probably increase, as tho

will be decrease in the area of

lowering of temperature, and a

will, however, elapao before this
can be accomplished.

What a Woman Can Do.

As wife and mother she can
make or mar the fortune and hap
pinese of her husband and children.
By her thrift, prudence and good
management, she can secure to her
partner and herself competency
By her tender care che can often
restore him to good health. By
her counsel and her love she can
win him from bad company, if
temptation, in an evil hour, has
led him sstray. She can do as
much as man, perhaps even more,
to degrade him, if she chooses to
it. As wife, she can rum her
husband by extravaganza and folly;
10y want of affection she can make
an ontcast of man who might
otherwise have become a good
member of society. She can bring
chickering's and strife into what has
been happy happy household.
She can become an instrument of
evil instead of an angel of good.
AS mother, her words and her
ways shonld be kind, loving and
good. Ii III Q reproves, her
language should be choice and re-
fined. The true mother rules by
the laws of kindness and to her
children the word "mother" is
synonymous with everything pure,
sweet and beautiful

Vasco Da Cana, whose remains
have Just been removed across the
Tagus at Lisbon to tho Monastery of
Belem, is the greatest and most famous
Of the Portuguese explorers. He is
generally credited with the discovery
of the maratime route to India, only
second in Importance to the dicovery
of the Western World by Columbus.
DR.. Pertz, Director of the Royal
Library at Berlin, announced some
years ago that certain documents had
been brought TO light teuding to show
that the route to the East via the Cape
of Good Hope had been known 200
years before Gama's day. The explorer
was descended from an ancient family.
and supposed to have been tinctured
with royal, though illegitimate, blood.
He early gained the reputation of a
dannt.ess sailor, and after the return of
Bartelommeo Diaz 148D from
doubling the Cape, King Joao fixed on
him as the man most likely to find a
southern passage to India. Joao's pur-
poses were baked by death; but
Mancel the Fortunate, his successor,
fit'ed out four vessels with $50 men,
and put Cana in command, furnishing
him with letters to all the sovereigns,
including the mythical Prester John.
whom he might have oocasian to visit.
The little feet sailed from Lisbon July
8, 1897, but was SO beset by storms as
not to reach what is now Table Bav
until Nov. 16. Three days later, in
the teeth Of furious gales and mutinous
sailors, he rounded the Cape, and touch
ed at various places on the hitherto
unkewn eastern coast of Africa. Hav-
ing found the people of Melinda far
more civilized than he had anticipated,
he engaged a very Intelligent Indian
pilot. native of Guxerat. and, putting
boldly out to sea under his guidance,
crossed the Indian Ocean, and arrived
at CaliGt, Hindustan, May 30, l49a.
His reception by the Prince of the
coast was not cordial. The Arab mer-
chants residing there were jealous OF
