The question of whether or not Arkan saw shall pay certain bonds will be sub. mitted to the people in September. The question, submitted in the form of an amendment to the constitution was sub mitted several years ago and was defeated by technicalities. This time, it is likely to be adopted by divided majority The cry of repudiation will again be raised, and the credit of the state will un. doubtedly suffer. The TRAvkLER is oi the belief that an adoption of the amend ment will injure the state generally.

ACCORDING to an article in the cur rent number of the Cesfsyy lHagasine, the Ku-Klux Klan was first organized in Pulaski, Tennessee. It was only intended for the amusement of young men who had just come out Of the army. These young men, while in the army, learned to love sport. It was too much for the country to ask them to return and resume the duties of the yardssick, the bar glass and the plow. They needed excitement. It was not their intention to become a band of |" regulators and they had no idea of hurting any one. Innocent young fellows Their order was surrounded with the solemnity of the grave. Skulls and shank bones were their tools-to mystify their neighbors, chief delight The negroes, naturally superssitious, soon became alarmed. They thought tha, the Ku-Klux were confederate soldiers returned from the grave. This, on the part of the innocent boys va. a gleefuI discovery.

"SLANG." said Charles Lever, is the paper currency of iniquisy-of which a man may issue as much as he likes" l" What an imitation this currency yearly receives. Many newspapers, and even some of the magazines, have abandoned the use of good English. Publications abounding in slang are quite as injurious to the household as the obscene journals against which legislation is directed. No writer can have too high standard. The idea of writing above the masses is nonsense. The uneducated man could comprehend Edmund Burke quite as we'll as he could a pot-horse politician.
