THINGS HALEY AUsT DO IN 1889

Tho old year is almest behind ",
and we shall soon stard upon the
threshold of the glorious New Year.
What it shall bring to US, will largely
depend upon ourselves. We want
unity Of endeavor in everything that
tends to build up our town and vicin.
lily. We want live, energetic, capa-
honest mon At the head OF our A.
~; and when we get them, we must
sustain them loyalty and heartily. Az
oil roads led to Rome, so we must
have highways, open highways to
HALEY, leading to al the mining
camps tributary t." il. Haley must
have trade winter and summer. If
snow biockades our avenues Of com.
munication, We must devise ways and
means to keep them open. We must
spend money to make money. We
ought to have = live, energetic Board
Of Trade, and a committee from that
board should attend the meetings of
our Board Of County Commissioners
and suggest to them the opening,
building and repairing Of roads that
will increase our trade. Merchants
of HALEY, you must sttend ia this.
You have an sctivc, wids.awake, en-.
ergetic neighbor in Shoshone that is
working in this direction, while you
are lying supin.ly on your backs talk
ing of the hard times of to-day, and
the good times Of twenty years ago.
We want aid must have new
scho 'lhouse; the best enthusiastically,
the best in scholastic equipments aud
curriculum there is in the Territory.
We must plant trees; We must have
an Arbor Day. Next spring, the mer.
chant, the lawyer, the doctor, the arti.
san, the miner, the school children,
must each and every one be invited
to plant . troc. The Land Com.
ps"y ought TO make it part OF th.'
consideration for their lot, that the
grantee should plant and keep in .
growing condition, u double row of
shade trees in front OF their lots. We
want growing town-a heautiful
and attractive town "a town that will
invite by its thrift and home.like ap.
pearancs those seeking homes. Let
" welcome new corners with hospi.
tslity; lot US encourage every lauda-
bio enterprise that will put an extra
dollar in circulation; and above all,
let US pull together-avoid disssn.
sions, chickering's, aud local jealousies,
in non essentials liberty in es.
sentials, UNIrY--and our word for it,
Haley will in a""t''cr year make such
q stride Is will astonish the most
hopeful II Us.

1 town in the state in the culture of the people and their loyalty to law
 and order; but notwithstanding this,
 they said to the courts: Stand aside for the time being and we will stretch forth our arm of justice and summa- rilv execute murderers, and when we are done, we will return the pow CT into your hands and see if you
 will do any better"
 In your editorial, Mir. Editor, few days since on thls subject, you gave some very good reasons why mob law exists, but when you said the laws of the state are not to blame; that the laws are good enough if only executed, we think you were mistaken. Our criminal laws are not, in several respects. the most wholesome and efficient, and if I had the time and you would give me the space, could show wherein they are not what they should be.
 Judge Vaughan, I think il was, year or two ago and while, 1 think, the legislature was in session, wrote a series Of well directed articles pointing out very plainly the de- fects of the criminal law-especially the provisions for change of venue and the granting of continuances in criminal cases. Judge Vaughan was several terms prosecuting attorney and then presiding judge of the err cult court (as he now is) and no one had better opportunity than lie to learn the defects, whatever they might be, of the criminal laws.
 To these timely suggestions the legislature paid no attention whatev- CT, and will they do so at the next session of the legislature? Some earnest discussion of this subject with a view of punishing those who commit murder and other high crimes will do good, and serve to call the attention of the people and con sequently the legislature to the inn portant matter hereafter. and thus supersede what is called. and that too, by good and law-abiding citi- zens, a necessity for mob law. An enlightened, humane people, believe in law and order, but for that very reason they will not sit with folded arms and see murderers go unpun- lshed. W. C. k.

RUssELLvILLE POPE O.. ARK, DECEMBER IT, 1885. -

PETERsoN's MAGAZINE for January
 is received, excelliDg even itself II is the finest number we ever saw. It has two splendid steel engravings, either worth the price ofthe number. Every mother will be in love with the one called "The Little Gardener y and every heart will beat sympathet- Ically with "Homeless." The nam moth colored fashion plate, engraved sn steel, and colored by hand, is q marvel of beauty and taste. A col ored pattern in Berlin work is also given--a most exquisit affair, that would sell at retail for fifty cents. In addition, there are some fifty oth illustrations, including several very fine ones in an article on "Damas GUS" The stories, if possible, are better than ever. Two thrilling novelets arc begun: "The Million aire's Daughter by Ann s. Steph ems, and 'sThe Cedar Swamp Myste ry," by Jane c. Austin. "Under Cloud" by Lucy H. Hooper, is also an unusually powerlul tale. Desiues these, there are stories by Frank Lee Benedict, by the author of ''Jo- sah Aliens Wife," and nearly a dozen others, all original. The Work. Table department, with it's patterns in embroidery and all kinds of fancy work, is very full, and profusely il- lustrated. As we have of.en said before, every lady ought to take this magazine. The price is but Two Dollars year; with liberal deduc tions to clubs, and costly premiums forgetting up clubs. How the pub fishers can afford it so cheaply is a marvel, and can only be explained by it's immense circulation. Speci- mems are sent gratis, if written for in good faith. Address CHARLES J. PETERSON, 305 Chestnut Street, Phil adelphia, Pa.

A DISCUSSION has been awakened
 by correspondent of the Gazette
 from this place on the subject of amending our criminal laws so as to prevent the long and yexatleus de lays which have hrtksrsa been So common in the practIce of our courts, and which as is shown by this cor respondent is more than anything else responsible for any tendency to- wards mob law among the people. This discussion we think, has been aroused to the very best purpose if it shall result in much needed step in this direction by the next general assembly. The people want justice meted out to evil docrs and law breakers. They recognize the fact that their own safety to large de gree lies in sure punishment of the evil doer, and they also recognize the fact that the delays of law blunts the edge of justice and are invoked for that purpose and at great outlay of money, and when the public demands are met in the speedy and sure pun ishment of crime we will hear but little more of mob law.

 CAGLEsvILLE, ARK, Dec. 7th, 1885. Health is very good in this vicinl- ty. .. Farmers are done gathering crops and sowing wheat and are now turning their lands preparatory to making another crop. =. .Caglesville is on a boom! The Caglesville SC. feet school, under the management of Prof. Mallot, (late of CIinton) is progressing finely. Prof. Mallet is a prominent educator and efficient teacher, and under his management we see no reason why there should not be school organized at Cagles- ville second to none in the county. Since our last there has been quite number added to our citizen ship. Among the number we name: Rev. w. P. Gillum, Rev. Mir. Rack ley, Mir. Mac. Arthur and others from various parts of the county who came for the purpose of educating their children. Let others follow their example :. Messrs. J. B. & o. Nj. Nichols have their store house erected, and will have it filed with goods in short tune. Our worthy friend of Clark Tp., Prof. w. G. Bull lock, is teaching school at Rock Springs, near Caglcsvlle. !. Miss Savannah Sharp is teaching school at Cross Plains; Mrs. Bettie Bowden { nee Miss Bettie Brashear) is teach ing at Gravel Hill. May their cf. forts be crowned with success.

Commenting on John Sher- man, president of the Senate and John G. Carlisle speaker of the House, the New York World has this to say in It's usual emphatic way.
 John Sherman was the second choice of the Republican Senators. Their first choice was Gen. Logan, and he wisely declined. In capacity Mir. Sherman is fit for the position. In character he IS unfit for any pub lie trust. He is man of ability, but he has used his ability for evll purposes. It made him one of the most useful agents Tn the theft of the presidency Tn 1875. It has enabled him to be- come millionaire during the period of his public service, although his salary has not paid his expenses. He is dangerous and interruptions sectional agltator, who stands ready to foster hatred and mistrust be- tween the States while inasquerad ing as patriot. He IS plausible hypocrite, whose election, it is to be feared, may mean the revival of war animosities and heated partisan fight against the Administration.
 MT. Carlisle IS unanimously chosen Speaker because Of his remarkable qualifications as presiding officer He has judicial impartiality and clearness of judgement, and entire familiarity with the rules and with the principles of parliamentary law. He is the choice of the North and the South, of the East and the West --of Kentucky and South Carolina as we'll as of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. The significance of this election is that it shows q determination on the part of the House to do effective work this ses- sion, and that it gives promisc of 8 united Democracy on all important legislative issues.

The Vice Presidents widow is left Tn comfortable circumstances. She has herself largely taken charge of the private business affairs of her husband and has managed them with signal success-"much better" the Vice President used to say, "than l could have done myself" The resi- dence where Mir. Hendricks died, in Indianapolis, is worth $l0,000, and he had other property in the city, valued, all told, at about $60,000. His life was also insured in consid- erable sum. Altogether it IS estI- mated that he will leave $100,000, the bulk of which represents the earnings of his professional career.

Boston Corbett was arrested few days ago in Kansas, where he lives, for threatening to kill neighbor. He was taken to court and when the judge ordered that he be placed un- der bond, he drew couple of re- volvers, stood the officers of and marched to his ranche, where he now holds forth, threatening death to anybody who attempts to arrest him. Corbett will be remembered as the man who killed John Wilkes Booth, the assassin of President Lin. coln. He has always. until recently, been looked upon as eccentric, but is now considered insane.

For years the Republicans at the North have been protesting yearn- ing desire to see the '.color line" abolished in t'se South What they meant by that was to have sufficient number Of whites join the blacks to elect Legislatures that would send Republican Senators to Congress and Republican votes to the Elector- al College. Now that the color llne is being abolished by large numbers of the blacks joining the whites in voting the Democratic ticket, they are wretchedly unhappy and declare that tLe color line can only be abol- ished through fraud. They abhor any kind of politics that don't put Republicans in office.
