TO COL. E. A. WARREN

Below we reproduce a number of
tributes, frem the State press, to Col.
Warren, formerly editor of this paper:
THE newspaper fraternity of the
State viii be saddened TO learn that
Col. Z. A. Warren is dead. He was
one of the best known newspaper men
in the State, and numbered as his
friends all the members of the Ark
ansas Press Association.-Helena
World.
We regret to hear of the death of
Col. L. a. Warren, at his home in Tex
arkana, on the 23rd inst, ON which
day he was 81 years old. Col. Warren
has been connected with the newspa-
per profession for many years, which
he only relinquished few weeks ago,
and was universally respected and es-
teemed by his contemporaries. The
Sentinel extends sympathy TO the be-
reaved family.-Fayetteville Sentinel.
THE death of Col L. a. Warren
causes us profound and sincere sorrow.
The editor of this paper met Col.
Warren at about twelve annual Ark
apooe Draos Aeeon;o4;ore a,I 4bo,o
learned to love him as friend, and
for his many noble traits of character
and fine mental requirements. While
we deeply regret his death, we find
solace in the knowledge of the fact
that he feared not to die. His wife
and children have our unfeigned SYM
pathy in their irreparable loss and
poignant grief-Arkansas Democrat.
THE news of the death of Col. f A..
Warren at Texarkana Tuesday has
caused sincere sorrow among a large
circle of friends throughout the State,
and especially so among his newspaper
friends. Until recently he had been
for many years the editor of the Tex
arkana DEMOCRAT and he kept his
paper always in the front rank of Ar
kansas journalism. He was a genial,
warmbearted gentleman, of wonder
ful energy and generous impulses.
We have known him since our boy
hood; and while for a long time we
were intense political opponents, it
gives us pleasure to recall now that
through the fiercest fighting we were
always personal friends. We offer a
heartful of sympathy to his wife and
children. with the prayer that a kind
and watchful providence may tenderly
keep them and protect them from all
harm.
Screen be the turf on his tomb,
And bright the place of his soul"
-Batesville Guard
Col h. A. Warren, late editor Of the
Texarkana DEMOCRAT, died at his
home in TeXarkana this week after a
long and painful illness. We have
known Col. Warren since his early
youth, which he spent in Camden. A
few weeks before his death he had
sold his interest in the paper and re-
sumed the practice of law. A bright
future seemed spread out before him,
but death, which turks in every breeze,
stole upon him imperceptibly and
chilled the rosy hue Of life, leaving all
that was mortal of Ed Warren an ul-
innate heap of clay. His soul had
flown to the God who give it-his
weary spirit to the great unknown
Law books, tripod and editorial pen
were all laid aside. His work was
finished, but his unswerving fidelity
to what he conceived to be right and
his outspoken sentiments in behalf OF
the same will live in the hearts of his
people as long as the sun shall
awaken Aurora's welkin light at
dawn or kiss the brow of western
hills at quiet eve. And though he
now sleeps amid the blushing flowers
and the song of birds, his good deeds
win, like seed sown in good ground
continue to bear fruit until the great
harvest of Eternity shall gather his
brothers and contemporaries home
TO his bereayed wife and children we
extend sincere sympathy.--IIot Springs
