THE Arkansas Press observes:
"No laboring man should leave Ar
kansas in search of work. If he
goes further west he will find that
in the mining states there are hun
dreds of idle men who cannot earn
bread for their families. In the
East vast manufacturing establish
ments are closed and worklngmen
are thrown out of employment, and
some of them are in great want.
Remain in Arkansas, where your
neighbors are your friends. Busi-
ness of every kind is reviving and
soon there will be abundant work
for willing hands and no one need

IT begins to look by the news
fro ~ Washington that the ten per
cent tax on State banks will be re-
pealed. It is said the Chicago plat
form is in favor of this. We don't
know just what effect this will have
except the establishment of more
financial institutions, and a conse-
quent unseemly activity to get bus
mess, with perhaps questionable
methods which should not obtain in
institutions that should be as far
above reproach and as pure as any
religious organization in the land.
The country should long hesitate
before it goes book to the "v ildcat"
system IN vogue in Buchanan's
time, when money of an adjoining
county was looked on with suspic-
ion, and when the well-thumbed
Bank Note Detector was on every
counter. Save us from repetition
of such times!

The unconditional repeal OF the
Sherman law will be the ond Of bi.
metalism, and what the conse
quences will be no man can tell.
But trouble is surely ahead of us
if this step is taken. No more i'm

taken in the Senate of the United
States than the vote on the bill now
pending to repeal Internationally
the present silver law.
The Green Forest tribune., 1893-09-14

platforms are constructed for any other purpose

THAT the Wall Street banks
have been violating the law tor
weeks is denied by no one. On
Thursday Senator Voorhees, succeed
ed in having a resolution of inquiry
which would have brought out the
facts, referred to his committee, and
thus defeated it's passage. It will
never be heard from again, and
the Wall Street banks can set the

Committee.

FIVE Senators have changed their
positions on the silver question in
the last few weeks. Among them are
Vorhees, Gordon and Lindsay. The
Washington Post says: "What in

does not enter into the controver-

differently. If Senator goes

pie want to know why.

LoneIinoss of the Pacific.


In the summer of 1850 left San Fran
cisco on sail vessel formerly from Bal
timore) for Panama, distance 1000 miles,
and on the entire route, which lasted 40
days, we never saw a sail. Loneliness is
no word for it, especially when we lay
becalmed in the tropics, with our vessel
floating as helplessly about as chip on
a mill pond, the ground swell keeping up
the monotonous roll Of the vessel from
side to side all day and night and day
after day, each roll being accompanied
by flap of the sails and a creaking of
the rigging that might have passed for
the flap of the wings and the wall of lost
spirits
When we read about Noah and his ark,
we are apt to think that he must have
had rather a lonely time, but then be
was out only 40 days, and besides, with
all the animals, ETC., on board, he had
plenty to occupy his time and attention,
and if he wanted amusement to while
away the time he had only to start
sparring match between his monkeys
and parrots. True, there is no report of
any such proceeding on his part, but
that is doubtless because there was no
modern newspaper reporter on board. l
tell you a man cannot realize what lone
illness or discomfort is until he has made
some such trip, and if he wants to com
plete his education in that line heshould

The last place on earth from which
one would expect to hear of railroad
washouts, especially at this season of the
year, is Arizona. That region has rep
utation for aridity that is unequaled on
the continent. tits generally considered
land of perpetual drought. 1t scarce
ly ever rains there at any season, and in
the summer time rain is regarded as
something unnatural.
But it has been raining like fury dur
ing the last few days in Arizona. The
downpour has extended to New Mexico,
and there have even been heavy showers
on the Mohave desert in California. In
Arizona the freshets have been SO vio-
lent that numerous washouts have oc-
CURED along the lire of the Southern
Pacific. Between ella Bend and Lords
burg, N. NJ, track. trestles, embank-
ments and bridge approaches have been
carried away.
Three engines have been ditched and
temporarily disabled. Inconsequence of
these mishaps trains are delayed and
traffic generally interrupted. Yesterday
General Superintendent Fillmore was
principally occupied in reading kilograms
informing him Of fresh damages and
matchmaking Arizona for being such
an Internally contrary country.
As usually happens in arid lands, the
recent rains in the desert region between
Yuma and Deming have partaken of the
nature of cloudbursts. The tempest
breaks with sudden fury, and the rain
falls in torrents, swelling every dry
ravine into the proportions of rushing
streams.-San Francisco Chronicle.

The truth is, people must either fight
or laugh, and we prefer to laugh. Once
in awhile partisans get into hot de-
bate and break the furniture, but as a
general thing we take matters good
humoredly, and if reporter is really
witty we smile as broadly as circum-
stances permit. 1t is very interesting,
therefore, to read the comments of our
contemporaries. Here is The Tribune,
for instance, with choice variety Of
four line squibs every morning full of
ridicule of the other fellow. 1t has a
specialist who extracts all tho wasp
stings that can be found and furnishes
daily dish drowned in pepper sauce.
Some of them make delicious reading,
not because they are true, but because
they are bright. ..s.E
Then comes The Sun, sly old orb, with
wink in its left eye and simulated
expression of indispensable indignation,
and pokes the enemy under the fifth rib
in such a way that the rib is of no fur
Their use. The Evening Post is always
on horseback, and seldom day passes
that it doesn't plant its iron hoof on
some one, and The Commercial Adver-
tiser thinks that day lost "whose low de-
scending sun" does not look back on
some Democrat whom it has jabbed.
All this is agreeable, instructive and
interesting to everybody, except the po-
litical victims. The people road and
grin and enjoy perfect picnic when
ever there is party struggle on the car
pet.-New York Telegram.

A party of eastern capitalists said to
have some connection with the Santa Fe
railroad system is visiting the Grand
canyon of Colorado river for the pur-
pose of investigating the feasibility of
laying an electric cable 800 miles in
length along the river, with which to
drive small boats through the Black can
yon and other scenic points, where cliffs
over mile in height overhang the
stream. The power is to be generated
by water wheels driven by the current
of the river, or the water will be divert
ed into canals and dropped into the river
again.
A copper wire cable will be suspended
over the center of the river, which is for
the most part about 300 feet in width,
and electric power will be conveyed to
small boats similar to the manner of
running electric railways. The idea is
that this will become the most popular
route for tourist travel.
Another, and the main feature of the
scheme, is to convey the surplus power
down the river, where it will be used for
pumping the water Of the river to
height Of from IL to 20 feet upon mesa
lands for irrigation, converting an area
larger than Massachusetts-now des-
ert-into garden, where fruit will rip

Twenty years ago the Cincinnati,
Hamilton end Indiana Railroad COM
pany issued q lot of bonds payable in
1908. The bonds were for 81 900, with
Interest at 7 per cent. per annum, pay
able semiannually. The printing was
done IN Cincinnati, and the coupons were
presented in New York for payment.
For long time the officers of the COM
pany have been satisfied that there was
something wrong in the bond deal, but
were unable to find out what 1t was
until few days ago.
When the coupon Of bond No. 8,8t9
was presented for payment at the New
York Office the first of this month it was
noticed that the number was written in
blue ink instead of red ink, as was used
on ike other coupons. The coupon was
sent from 20S Forquer street, Chicago
and was payable to s. A. Brewer.
The auditor of the road went to Chi
cago and reported the matter at the CEN
trail station. Friday night detectives ar
rested Brewer.
A special from Chicago gays: Brewer
admitted having sent the coupon to New
York, bnt that M. A. Reed had the
bond. Reed was arrested and the bond
found in his possession. Both men are
printers, employed in Chicago. Reed
said he was employed in the Office in
Cincinnati where the bonds were printed
90 years ago and had stolen one of them.
He forged the signatures of the officers
of the road to the bond and had success
fully collected the interest on tho cou-
pons during all of these years. The
amount of interest collected on the stolen
bond by Reed amounts to 81 ,435. The
men will be taken back to Cincinnati to
stand trial. "-Cincinnati Commercial
