ABLE REPRESENTATIVES.

Nevada county has good reason
to feel proud of her representation
in the Legislature. In the Hons. c.
c. Handy and +. f. White we have
two as able, faithful and efficient
workers as there are in the General
Assembly.
Mr.. Handy has introduced some
of the most important bills of the
session, several of which have
passed the Senate. II was selected
as the proper man to nominate Hon.
Jas. X. Jones for L. S. Senator
quite an honor.
Mr.. White, with Mr.. Sewer, has
the honor of drawing and introduce
ing the new election bill, which will
doubtless become law. He, too,
is doing effective work, in other
lines, as legislator. Has several
times been called to the chair, in
place of Speaker Rector. The Ar
kansas Gazette pays HIM the follow
ing deserved compliment:
Hon. +. +. White, of Nevada
is an enthusiastic, as well as
conscientious laberer, in the commit
tee meetings himself. He never
makes report until he has shifted
to the bottom of the proposition un-
der consideration. Like Mr.. Nor
gan, of Union, he believes that haste
makes waste, and whenever he pre-
sents bill to the House with a fav-
orable recommendation the members
can rest assured that the features of
such bill has undergone an eXhaus-
tive examination. Mr.. White enjoys
the reputation of being one of the
most methodical workers in the
House. He is also a good parlia-
mentarian. For that reason he is
frequently called to the Chair by
Speaker Rector, and yields the gavel
like man accustomed to lead and
preserve order.

Have an Eye to Your Eyes.

How few think of the value of
good eyes, till they begin to fail?
How many have failing eyes and
don't know it, or if they know it,
are ashamed to make it known? OF
those who wear spectacles, how few
have them to fit, or suit their eyes!
And how few know that an imperfect
fit Injuries the eye? We have for
several years made speciality of the
eye, its study and treatment, and
for twelve months have made a
speciality of testing and fitting fine
glasses by the aid of the Johnston
Dioptric Eye Meters. We guaran-
tee a fit, and perfect satisfaction, and
when this is done, with good pebbles,
the eye not only ceases to fail, or as
is said, Ego from YOU" but the
sight generally improves. TO all
who wish to know if their glasses fit
their eyes, and to those who have
never worn glasses, and want to
know whether they need or would be
benefited by the use of glasses, we
offer free examination. Specta-
cles of all kinds furnished at reason
able rates. Respectfully,

ARKANSAS EXPOSITION.

For some months past the subject
of State exposition has been agita-
ted by the press. Private parties
have already subscribed money to
the extent of 100000, to establish
such an institution on choice site
at Little Rock. In view of the fact
that this exposition will benefit the
whole State, and can be made a
much greater success every way, the
association having charge Of the ex-
position asks that the sum of 500,
600 be appropriated it by the State
which will make it essentially a
permanent institution. If this is
done the State will own a onethird
interest in it, and no further aid be
required.
We heartily favor the exposition,
and think it right and proper that
the State aid in such q good cause.
We have a State bureau of mining,
manufacturing and agriculture that
is of no practical use, costing several
thousand dollars year; let this be
abolished and the exposition take its
place.
1t is proposed to build large ex-
position building within six blocks of
the Capitol building, wherein the
State and each individual county
will have plenty of space to make a
good exhibit. 1t will be similar to
the great St. Louis exposition, which
attracts so many thousands to see it
every year.
Trust our Legislature will assist in
making our State Exposition grand
success by appropriating to it the
$50, 900 asked. If it can give like
sum toward an exhibit at the Colum-
bian Exposition, at Chicago, in 1898,
it surely will not refuse this much to
a more worthy State institution.

We heartily agree with the Rus
sellville Democrat IN the following ;
IF the Legislature would enact few
er laws and provide for the publish
ing of that few in the newspapers il
would be more creditable to the law
makers and of more benefit to the
people, New York publishes in the
newspapers the laws as they are
passed by the Legislature, and ha,
done so for forty-five years. Mis-,
souri, is considering this question
why not Arkansas. The law would
not involve any heavy expense to the
tax payers, aud would be more
than worth all that it would cost ii
the benefits it would yield. The
people should have an opportunity
to know the laws which they are re-
quired to obey.
