DURING the past month many inquiries have
beer made as to the authority of the Presi-
dent of the United States over the National
Guard OF the various States. The President
has full authority to call the militia of the
States into the service of the United States
whenever he deems the emergency suf-
ficiently great, and be alone is the judge OF
the necessity. When called into such serv-
ice it is subject to precisely the same au-
thority as the regular army, and must go
wherever ordered. There are number OF
views on the subject, and the matter has nOf
been practically tested. OF course call of
any kind would be m de through the Gov
ernor of the State, and the Governor would
determine as to how to best meet the call
within the limitation OF time fixed by the
President.

Conyalescence IS very slow, and to recover the health tone good tonic IS absolutely necessary. Hood Sarsaparila has been used with wonderful success as building up medicine and blood purifier after at
 tacks of the Grip, after Typhoid Fe- yer, Scarlet Fever, Diptheria, Pne
 umonia or other prostrating dis ease. It possesses just the building
 up effect so much needed; it vital

Thousands of peo pie have taken Hoods Sarsapari Ia as a preventive of the Grip with sue cess, Thousands have found Tn it restoration to health ana strength after this dreaded complaint.

State Press Comments.

Batesvile Guard: Playing cards come in free under the McKinled bill, while heavy tariff is imposey on Bibles; and this was done by the great alleged God and Morality par ty.
 Pine Bluff Graphic:. The farm CTS throughout the State are holding meetings and resolving to plant less cotton this year and to raise their own "hog and hominy" at home. Ii this policy is pursued by the farm CTS throughout the South an unusual era of prosperity wlll smile upon them.
 Batesville Guard: If Mir. Mills were more discreet man he would be a more successful man. His standing in the house and before the country, and his prospects for election to the senate, have been much injured by acts of indiscretion painfully out of place in a man oi Mir. Mills innate greatness. And no man was ever so beset on the face of the earth with fool friends.
 Augusta Vidette: It takes more cotton in bulk to make pound than 1t does anything that is consumed on the Armand is worth less a pound and costs more to produce. There may be some way to demon strate mathematically a profit from it's exclusive culture, but if so, it is very studiously concealed from the farmers Tn this. section. If there were any reasons why the necessa- ries of life could not be produced In this climate, the persistency in an exclusive culture Of cotton could be excused and explained, but hogs and hominy grow better than cotton, and make more gar profit. In the classic lanr -ge of contemporary, we repeat: "Plant hogs"
 Little Rock Democrat It may not be generally understood, but It ought to be, that the Arkansas In dustrisl University st Fayetteville offers one thousand free scholarships for four years course to the young men and women ot Arkansas. These beneficiaryships are distributed among the several counties of the state and may be had upon applica~ tion to the county judges. There are very few of the counties whose quotas are taken, so that any worthy young man or woman who Is pre- pared to enter college can do so "without money and without price" The course of instruction is thor ough. the expenses of living less than at any university in the South. the climate inyIgorating and health ful, the scenery grand and inspiring and the moral tone of the commun ity most excellent. The next ses sion of the unlverity will open in March, and with all the advantages 1t presents there should be a very large attendance.

 WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-Hon. J. $. Clarkson, Chairman of the Republi- can National Committee: My Dear Sir-I am not candidate for the presidency and my name will not go before the National Republican Con veDtion for the nomination. l make this announcement In due season.
 To those who have rendered me their support 1 owe sincere thanks and am most grateful for their con fidence. They will, 1 am sure, make earnest effort in the approaching contest, which is rendered especially important by reason of the indus trial and financial policies of the government being at stake.
