The numerous visitors to Rus

was Mr.. John W. Turner, senior pro

The American Journal OF Edu-
cation is q journal published in our
capital in the interests of education.
Its mission is high one and de-
serves success. But we want TO say
to its editor, don't think everybody
can read latin, because you can. We
thought we had bit an excellent ar
ticle in this journal last week, which
was introduced by an anecdote from
an address by Cannon Farrar When
we struck the point of the anecdote
behold it was Latin, and Latin not
translated, and we has, no further
time TO loose With the thing, ana
pitched it under the table. Why
men VINO write for common people u
read, want 10 put the best of what
they have to say in language that
common people know nothing aboat.
is what this editor don't understand
except it be to show off their superb
or learning, and, like Simon Magas
in the scripture, giving out that tilsy
are some great one. We wish that
editors and authors would quit using
/ foreign phrases, or, if they must use
them, that they would please trahs-
late them for us common folks.

The Adjoining Country the Al "a
dian Land of the

Valley.
Her Progress and Busy Life.


To a citizen of our town or of our
county the beauty of Russe,ls lie
and its splendid location are f'cts
already appreciated. But the read
ers beyond who have never exami led
for themselves our immense resource
es in every point of view, calculated
to develop a country ipto a great
country, information is necessary
and we make our columns the medi-
um of this information. To show
what our future will be, it is but
necessary to look back half dozen
years to see what we were Then
without a single mandatory or a
well developed coal mine, and just
in possession of railroad, and land
at our doors going begging for a
buyer at any price. Now in add
ton to, the splendidly equipped L. K.
d. Fl 5. r. R., we will soon be able
to rattle over the Russellville and
Dardanelle r. r. Our coal mines
can furnish the nation with coal,
our wagon manufactures and plan
ing mills can build wagons and
make lumber to haul the produce
and build the cities of the state, and
the Melrose Cotton Mill stands the
pride of all the south in her line of
manufacturing. Nothing in these
United States in the way of a cotton
mill either in New York, Massachu
sets or New Hampshire can surpass
If they can equal her products and
she sells her superior goods by the
car in San Francisco, Cincinnati,
Kansas City and Boston. She is
now crying for MAZE beside her to
furnish the heavy demand on her
for goods, and ere long she will have
one. Our merchants have had fore
thought enough to advertise and
have made money, and large part
of them are in nice bricks, or pre-
pairing to get into them.
Our school building is an index
to our appreciation of popular eduea-
ton. There is ten thousand other
pretty things crowding on our mind
but the limits of this extra wont
admit them. In conclusion we chal-
lenge this or anyother state, to our
size and numbers to produce a
healthier country, more contented
people, more wide awake or pros
porous town than Russellville, and
one that gives heartier welcome to
her friends or to those in search c. q
new home.

The Philadelphia Press says: When
the members of the Delaware Legisla.
ture reelected Senator salisbury to
represent the State of Delaware in the

The eye Of the public rested upon tn,
Delaware Senator IA day or 50 ago, when
he almost persuaded Senator Vest, OF
Missouri, to knock the Delaware chip
from the salisbury shoulder.
Senator Vest had said that sheet Stce |
was manufactured in Wilmington.
Senator Bayard called attention to Sena-
tor Vest s mistake There the matter
might have rested, but salisbury, who
looks upon Wilmington as city OF
Bucks County Quakers and Chester
County AbolitiOnists, and whose smypa-
thy with the one city of his State barely
exceeds his liking for Yankee Boston,
Thought this would be a fair opportunity

mrnt that no sheet steel was made III

He was venfurinG upon nneXplored
