THE following advice to settlers
in this State is CLEANED from
the Arkansas Hand Book: The
new settler who deserves
success begins at bed rock, keeps
out of debt. buys as little as he can,
wears his old clothes, works early
and late, leaves whisky alone, and
has a defnate aim and plan in life.
Such man can come to Arkansas
with small capital and find it a
good State for the poor man.
Those who are content to work
can here have d comfortable home
in land where there are no violent
extremes of heat and cold, and
where the farmer can work in COM
fort every mouth in the year. All
Arkansas needs is q greater popu-
lation to take advantage of the
fayorable soil and woo and win
from the earth it's yet reserved
treasures.
The Green Forest tribune., 1893-10-05

THIS country at the present
time is undergoing a change that
is remarkable for the better. The
old time credit system of buying
goods on time and paying for them
when you can is practically no
more. Our merchants complain
but little of this class. What book ac-
counts they have they regard as
good as cash, as they are on short
time and by special arrangements.
The money sharks who seek to
prey on our farmers by loaning
them money and taking mortgages
meet with no patronage. A
spirit OF live-as-you-go seems to
have been adopted by everybody
May it remain so.

The latest report from the West
is to the effect that that whole re-
gion is going to Hades at the rate of
60'miles an hour. Mines are no long
er the source Of any livelihood,
stock. bears no price on..the market, !,
and wool will not pay the freight
on Its self to the Eastern market,
while the prices on the necessities
of life, of which they are almost
entirely dependent on other coun-
tries, have advanced out of their
reach. We expected nothing less.

WHATEVER may have been the
cause of his getting the nomination,
it has become SO clear that he is
untitled to be u. S. Ambassador to
Italy, that the Senate should not
hesitate to reject Mr.. J. J. Van Al
lens nomination to that position.
We had far better have 30 repre-
sentative in Italy than one who
is ashamed to be called an Amer
ican.

IT is somewhat doubtful what et.
feet Congressman Holman's bill,
requiring every man elected to any
office to swear that he did not pay
money or MAKE promises of patron
age or other things of value to Sc
cure his nomination and election,
would have, if enacted into law.
1t might reform some politica ms,
and then again it might only in
crease the crime Of perjury.
