An EI0pement From Fayetteville.

The old adage that 'love ,aeghs at lock ksmitbs' had emnle veriica tion in the mar.ia9e ot Miss JuI1a MeRoy and Mr. Cha he Eaber of Fayetteville, which oceared at tho Gladden. hotel in this place on last Monday evening. It seems that the young couple had been greatly attached to each other for some time and that they had often con- tempia'ed marriage, but the parents of tho young lady, who were oppos- cd 10 it, haG always frustrated their plans. Several months ago they sent her tn Colorado for the pur- pose of getdng her out of reach of young Baber. The young people however bided their time. They were not going to be cruelty sep orated 'n thls manner. no, not much. Miss Juia returned home short time ago and during her absence the young lover had taken =up hls residence in Ft. Smith. Immediate " apon tho arrival ot his fair ln- amorat;s, Il friend of the two in Fayetteville, sent hlm word. On receipt oftbe joyful news he strai ght- way got himseifin shape and set out for Fayetteville post-haste. Ar irving there he and his finace held consultation and it was unanI- mously decided that they forthwith marty and heneeforth be one insep- arable. Accordingly the necessary papers were procured and they came to Springdale and were mar rled at 3 D. m. by Rev. H. M. Gra- made as above stated.
 The bride grew up Tn Fayetteville and k beautiful and charming young lady, and We learn tbat MT. Baber is an industrious young pam or. What objections the parents had to their marriage we did not learn, but we trust all their troubles are over and heneeforth they will have smooth sailing. THE NEWS tenders them its best wishes and trusts that the future has much happiness in store for them.

 We don't exactly understand the meaning of the phrase "petty poll tician" as used by the Press. We have always had an idea that any person who connected himself with political affairs and devoted his time principally to politics would be termed apolitic'an. Oul present efficient Governor, who has heen quite frequently eulogized by the Press is polle'an. whethe, petty or not we are unable to say Probably the press can tell us Pro-. Mitchell has been connected with politics all his life and is evi dently politician. He may not b, petty politician but we woul, term him "policy politician"

! prote ction organ pronounces 1t ridiculous to try to elevate free trade into great moral principle. In other words, 1t is not pertinent to object to system as immoral because It takes the earning of one man engaged in a profitable busis. ness and give to another to enable h,m to succeed in n business which without this aid, would be Gnprofi table. It IS not surprising that the bene ficiaries of such a system should be reluctant to contemplate the moral aspects of the question There is precedent for such re lnctancc, old, but altogether apro pos.

An Interesting Budget of News From

The Republican leaders, with the approach of the opening of the Eff ty-frst Congress, grow uneasy. For the first time in years they possess the Presidency and both branches of the national assembly. The responsibility is unavoidable. No more talk Of the opposition ot the Democratic party in the House; no more talk of Democratic votes. The Republican party Tn the com ing session must meet the issues of the day squsrely. The revision oi the tariff, which the Senate bill of the last session declared to be i'm. pera,ive, must be made. Appro , priatlons for purposes long delayed must be levied. Qulbbling and ly- Ing III avail little during this ses. sion. In losing the House, the Democratic party is fortunate, Tn. asmuch as 1t leaves It's enemy with enough rope to hang Itself.
 Certainly Republican members will doubtless have much to say in the coming session of the faulty and harassinq rules of the House, It is

..OI,i Black Joe"

The original cold Black Joe" died at Mt
Holly, n. j., August 10 in the little cabin
where he has lived for years. His proper
name was Joseph Queen and he was un-
doubtediy the Oldest man in the state, being
ll2. The fact is recorded in faded charac-
tiers in the old family bible. This book
"Old Joe" has always kept in his posses
sion, and it was found among his effects.
''Old joe was "a runaway slave and came
TO New Jersey in lS2S where he WAS taken
care of by some of the residents Of Mount
Holly, one OF whom is still living and re-
members that he was well along in years
when he came there. For years past the
townspeope have ministered 10 his wants
and kept him in comparative comfort He
was very patriarchal in appearance, and
his form was bent nearly double with the
weight Of years. A monument will be
erected TO his memory by the citizens.

To Teach the Indians.

a number of applications for appoint
ment az teachers in Indian schools have
been received by the commissioner OF In
dian affairs. 1t is the purpose of the office
TO appoint no person as a teacher in the In
dian school service who would not he able
TO secure q similar position in the best
schools for white children in the communi
~ in which he resides. Indeed, the exigen-
cies of Indian schools are such az TO require
really "a higher order of talent 10 secure
success than is required in ordinary teach
ing. Emphasis is laid on the fact that
those who are engaged in the Indian
school service should be persons OF matur
ity, of vigorous health, with some exper-
fence in teaching, and with special fitness
for the work. Preference is expressed for
those who have had a normal school train
ing. IL is very undesirable that persons
enter the service who, by reason OF i'll
health age and other iphrmities, are unable
10 do full vigorous work

John Bloom and Louis Sid on July 80
left Murray, l. r., for Mssoula, Mont,
with two wagons and four horses. They
had been warned al Murray that the Jour
ney would be dangerous on account OF for
est fires raging along the line from there to
Thompson. A few hours aftert they started
the roar of flames was heard and thcy
urged their teams as rapidly as possible.
The speed Of the horses was slow compar
ed TO the rapidity at which the fire travel
ed. They were soon overtaken and leav-
ing their teams in deep ravine, ran for
shelter in deserted tunnel which happen
ed to be in the dense timber Their place
OF refuge was entirely surrounded and it
was five days before they were able TO get
out. They were entirely shut of from
their wagons which contained their pro-
visions. There was n small spring in the
tunnel from which they obtained water,
but they were without food nearly five
days. The flames burned their horses and
wagons
