All the candidates agree on the
railroad question. While they are
in accord on the propriety and just
ice Of taxing such property, just as
other property is taxed, they also
agree that one Of the great demands
Of the state is additional railroad ia,
cilities. Arkansas needs at this mos
ment at least two thousand miles Of
railroad added to what we have.
How to assist them is, or ought to
be, leading question with our pub
lie men. They should be encouraged
in every legitimate way-treated as
friends and not euemies-made to
bear their share Of the public
burden but protected in every right
that is guaranteed to the private
citizen.-Arkansas Democrat.

Err DOES.

She never accepts valuable pres

unless engaged to him.
She never turns around to look
after any one when walking on the
street, nor looks behind her in church.
She does not permit gentlemen to
join her on the street unless they are
very intimate acqua!ntances.
She does not wear her monogram
about her person or stick it over her
letters and envelopes.
She never forgets her ballroom
engagements or refuses to dance
with one gentleman and Immediately
dances with another.
She never snubs other young
ladies, even if they happen to be less
popular or well.fayored than herself.
She never laughs or talks loudly
in public places.
She never raises her lorgnette and
tries to stare people she doesn't know
out of countenance on the street.
She never wears clothing so singu-
lar or striking As to attract particular
attention in public.
She never speaks lightly Of her
mother and say she "don't care"
whether her behavior meets with ma

THE MORTGAGE.

ga mortgage is strange institu-
tion. 1t makes a man rustic, and it
keeps him poor. 1t is strong incen-
tive to action, and a wholesale remin-
der of the feeting month and years.
A mortgage represents industry, be-
cause it is never idle and never rests.
1t Is like a bosom friend, because the
greater the adversely, the closer it
sticks to a fellow. 1t is like a brave
soldier, it never hesitateS at charging
nor fears to close in on the enemy.
1t islike the sandbag of the thug, sill
ent in its application but deadly in
effect. Like the hand of providence
it spreads over creation, and its infu-
ence is everywhere visible. 1t is the
grasp of the devil-fsh, the longer it
holds the greater the strength. It
will exercise feeble energies and
lend activity to the sluggish brain.
No matter how hard debtors work,
the mortgage works harder still. 1t
makes fellow sour, cross, selfish,
unsoclable and miserable, and rarely
does him any good, only to exercise
him."

ARKANSAS AS 4 FRUIT PRO
DUCING STATE.

Among the many resources Of Ar
kansas its capabiIty as a fruit pro-
ducing state is one Of which we
must not lose sight. That it IS ia
vorabIv situated none can dispute.
Occupying q position which
while it is not so far South but what
the apple will grow in all its Perfec-
ton, free from many Of the ills
which are so detrimental to its sue
cessfuI raising in so many Of the
| Northern states-wiII admit Of the
successful culture Of many fruits
that must besuppIied to the Northern
markets from a more favored climate.
Her position also renders the south~
ern markets available. She can sup
ply them with fruit that they cannot
grow to perfection and with profit
at home.
Arkansas has already done much
toward showing the world what she
can do in fruit raising. She has
shown that in the quality OF her
fruit she is surpassed by none.
What she now wants is some en-
terprising fruit cuIturist to show
what she can do in production-some
one to take up the culture Of fruit
in a commercial way.
Her fruit producing qualities have
been shown in a general way by an
ateurs and farmers who have paid
some attention to fruit growing as
much for pleasure as for profit.
These qualities being ascertained
and settled beyond dispute we may
confidently expect her to make
rapid strides in the near future.
No business is better paying than
that of the commercial Orchardist
when he has secured a climate and
soil from which he may reasonably
expect a good crop Of fruit. We do
not claim the fruit growers bed to
be all roses-his business has its
drawbacks like all others, but they
are drawbacks which we claim can
be overcome by one who is willing
to devote his entire time and energy
to the business.
Much has been accomplished in
Mississippi in the last few years in
the line of strawberry culture. A
few erergetic men have gone to rails
inc strawberries in large quaL titles,
and shipping them to the northern
states before the berries from less
favored localities are ripe, In this
way they realize a large income.
Why cannot Arkansas, with an
equally good prospect Of success, 90
into commercial orcharding and sup
ply the apple market of the northern
cities, which Of late years have been
running so low? The old orchards
of Michigan, where large portion
of the northern supply has been
coming from are dying and are not
being replaced to any great extent.
This gap must be filled by some aP-
pie section-why not Arkansas? This
Is only hint of what might be done
and it is hoped that some enterpris-
ing man will take hold Of it and
show what can be done,
Should these lines chance to be
read by any one who IS seeking a
country for fruit growing, we say
to you-come to Arkansas and see
for yourself E. 5. Richman, Ag.

As arule, an editor gets 1000
kicks to one caress. Once in while
he gets kind word and it warns
and cheers his weather beaten storm
racked heart to the innermost core.
Most people are afraid to tell an ed,
itor when he writes All article that
particularly pleases them, for fear of
making him proud, we suppose, but
if they find anything that does not
accord precisely with their views,
they will neglect their business to
hunt him up and tell him of it.
Pshaw! dear friends, don't think you
will spoil the editor by giving him
an occasional word of cheer, any
more than you will spoil your child
by complimenting it upon piece of
patchwork it has finished. Of
course you could beat the job
yourself, but that does not deter
you from heaping words f
encouragement on the child. It has
done its best. So you could doubt
less beat the average editor running
a paper? Of course you can. The
man does not live who can't beat an
editor running paper. The editor
is willing to acknowledge that you
can. He only runs it because you
have not time to; but this fact need
not deter you from giving HIM word
of encouragement occasionally.-EX.

Willing "A Bad Elephant.

A novel excitement was provided to
the residents Of Mhow last week by the
Transport Department. A huge male
elephant aged according to official re-
cords) ninety-two years, the property OF
the Government, was condemned to death
for long and hardened course OF IN
iquity. savs the Bombay Gazette. lie
had been loug ia q chronic must state.
and in this condition had taken human
life at Poona a couple of years ago. He
vould not work, and was a source OF APP
prehension TO all about him, and a per-
petual cause of anxious concern TO the
Government.
The fiat went forth that he must die.
The Maharaia Holkah and the Raiah OF
Dhar each separately telegraphed 10
beadousrters and tried for reprieve.
One offered to buy the grand-looking
sinner for one thousand rupees, tue
other offered TO exchange a female eie-
phant of gentle manners for the savage
brute but the Government of India was
determined on making the criminal ex-
patiate his sins. These offers were re-
/ fused. and q private notice was sent
round the station that the execution
would take place on Thursday morning.
Several people, including volunteer ex-
ecutionors, hurried TO spot indicated
outside of environments. where the male
factor was already chained and secured
between two deathplan trees. The
volunteer marksmen, armed with twelve
bore express rifles, were selected to carry
ont the execution The elephant was
sitting down when the crowd began to
assemble, but shortly raised himself on
his forelegs when the first OF the shot:
was fred, which hit him low down at the
base of the trunk. The animal youch'
safed no other notice of this and two
other equally ineffective shots, than &c
stand up on all four legs, shake his mead
and blow with his trunk. At length Mr.
Doweu, of the Seventh native infantry,
placed a bullet in the centre OF his head,
lust below the level of the eyes. and the
| huge brute dropped down dead without
spasm.

The Enperor's First Attack.
rDom Wall CaJaffa

The fatal illness of the Emperor Frede-
rick is thought by some to be traceable
TO an attack OF measles from which he
suffered rather more than q year and
half ago. Although IT is well known
that abiding delicacy, and even definite
disease of the air passages may be IN
duced by this complaint, no distinct
connection has, we believe, been made
out in the present case between the acute
fever and the local malady which follow
ed it at a considerable interval OF
time. Those about him, however, no.
ticed that after his recovery from
measles be never fully regained the
buoyancy OF spirits and keen enjoyment
of life which bad distinguished him be-
fore. In the autumn OF 1866, when ont
for a drive with the King Of Italy in the
Tyrol. he was caught in a heavy shower,
and, having no oyercoat, got wet through.
This misadventure resulted in a very
severe cold, which he never quite sue
ceeded in shaking of. January, 1887,
his voice became very hoarse, and 1t
was thought that he had again
taken cold. As, in spite Of treat
mept. the hoarseness continued to
get worse, DR.. Carl Gerhardt, professor
of medicine in the University Of Berlin
and physician of great experience in
diseases of the throat, was asked to see
him in the month of March. That gen.
tleman discovered a small growth at
tached to the vocal cord of the left side.
This excrescence hindered the free move
ment of the cord and thereby blurred
the tone of the voice and caused hoarse-
ness. Professor Gerhardt proceeded to
apply the electric oautery to the growth,
and in this way he succeeded in destroy,
ing the greater part of it. All seemed
to be going well, and in April the
Emperor went to Ems for a course OF
the waters. While there, however, the
hoarseness became worse than ever, and
the tumor was found to be growing
again. 1t increased in size so rapidly,
ia spite of repeated applications of cleo
trio cautery, that DIR. Tobold, distin-
guished specialist, and Professor Won
Bergmann, the leading surgeon III Der
lin, were called in. The disease was
pronounced to be cancer, and surgical
operation involving certain loss OF voice
and the most serious risk to life was de
clared to be necessary.
