THE WORLDS FAIR BILL PAS
 SES THE SENATE.

Arkansas has gone too far in pre- pairing for an exhibit at the Colum- bian Exposition to stop. Public spirited citizens have erected a building for that purpose on the grounds. It was the first State building completed, and the balance due for construction is only $3,700. Passage of the bill through the leg islature will enable the Commission CTS to complete payment and pro vide for all necessary expenses of making the exhibits during the time the exposition will be held.
 The State Senate on Monday pass ed the bill by an unexpectedly large majority The vote stood P to 5 and in casting it that body per formed a great work for Arkansas. It was long step on the road to progress and prosperity, a notifca- tion that Arkansas has determined to abandon the old ruts and grooves which have so long held her back and stunted her growth and enter prise. Now let the House act with like unanimity.-Gaz

ARKANSAS AT THE WORLDS

What representatives of Arkansas will De wiling to have the finger Of scorn pointed at the State at the Worlds Fair because of our failure to be represented after erecting a building and doing so much work z What senator or representative Will want to have 1t said that our bright prospects were shattered because of q failure to make an appropriation that would not amount to two and-a half cents to the inhabitant2 What citizen of Arkansas that would not hang his head in shame and hunilia- tion if our beautiful building shall be sold to satisfy small debt upon it2 Who is there among all the one million, three hundred thousand peo- pie in Arkansas who would blame the legislature for coming to the aid of the patriotic and public spirited men and women who have done so much in preparing for creditable representation of the state aud her resources2 How many men are there who would oppose the bill to aid the Worlds Fair were all the facts made knowns If we fail all this will be made known.
 The above is from the Arkansas Democrat, and every word of the ex- tract is true. By no sort of reason ing can the members of the Legisla- ture excuse themselves for not mak- [ ing an appropriation for an exhibit at the Worlds Fair. The burden, if such so insignificant an appropria- tion as has been asked for can be called, should be equally distributed and it is the wish of every section of the State that this appropriation be made, and at once
 Our legislators will stultify them selves. and reflect much discredit upon the entire State, if they fail tc pass the Worlds Fair appropriation bill without further unnecessary de lay.-Press Eagle.

THE cotton tax bill, favorably re ported by a majority of the judici ary committee of the lower house ol congress, provides that tax collect ed by the United States during the war on raw cotton shall be refunded in the event that the Federal su- preme court hold the laws under which the tax was collected to have been unconstitutional The bill au- thorzes any person who paid cot ton tax duty to bring suit in the court of claims against the United States for the recovery of the mon ey, the right of appeal to the Fed eral supreme court being given to each side to the suit One test case is to be made and no other cases tried unless the supreme court de cides the taxing act to have been unconstitutional. If the act be de clarcd invalid the court of claims shall try every cotton tax suit com meneed within one year after the de cision of the supreme court.

TIE powers that decree and reg ulate the styles in feminine apparel have threatened thecoalsry with an early return of the hoopskirt craze, and, no matter with what approval the edict may have been received on the other side of the water, it has undoubtedly created consternation in this country. Only the other day the Minnesota legislature, deem ing the matter of sufficient gravity to warrant legislative interference, entertained and discussed bill to prohibit the introduction of tho "airy garment into that state, up on any conditions During the past week in the Alabama legislature he question was considered by the in- troduction of a bill delegating pow CT to the mayors and councilmen of the cities and towns in that state to cause their side walks to be made seventeen feet wide, in order that a young man and his best girl might be able to walk side by side on the sidewalks. Thus, it will be seen that the guardians of the peoples interests in other states bravely face the emergency which eonfronts them, and seek to protect the public as far as may be practicable from impending peril; but, here in our own state the solons are either in sympathy with the oracles of fash ion or have been so busy with other duties, that this momentous ques- tion has been overlooked Whatever be the cause of their indifference, aroused public sentiment demand a record on the subject.

The Acute catarrh and hu- mid variety of Chronic catarrh, un- der this treatmnnt, will disappear in from one to two weeks; but in the Hypertrophie variety this treatment must be continued in some cases from one to three months: and in very rare or extremely bad cases if must be continued for six months. In some cases of Acute catarrh (eold in the head where the case is severe teaspoonful of Pe-ru-na should be taken every hour

The Slump in Cotton.

Batesville Guard: The latest slump in cotton has cost the south millions of money and seriously crippled many of her businss men. When, in response to the established shortage in the crop, the price began to advance in a very natural and highly encouraging way about the middle of December, many southern merchants and buyers, believing the long expected boom in cotton had come at last, bought eagerly and held for still further advance. The staple once more touched the pros porous old price of 10 cents, and it was confidently believed it would go to l2. But ever since the dawn of Christmas the price has been depre- ciating. The boom has gone. True enough, the crop is still short and shorter, but the spectators have got some sort of cinch on it by which they are forcing the price down, and the predictions are that within less than thirty days cotton will sell for 2 cents in New York, which means hardly 6 cents here. Much of the cotton bought by southern buyers in December is now being closed out at loss of one and half to two cents pound, representing Tn the aggregate millions of dollars. Per haps those with purse and backbone enough to weather this storm may make safe port in the end; but few southern merchants, already weakened by three successive hard years, are in condition to fight the spectators through the present cri- sis. The great southern staple has fallen under evil influence and bro't untold misfortune to those who pro dnce it.

The Next Senate.

The senate of the United States never dies. It is continuous body. But at the beginning of every ad- ministration it is or may be re-or- ganized. When the senate of the Fifty third congress meets Vice President Adlia k. Stevenson will take the chair of the president of the senate, vacated by MT. Morton, and a complete reorganization of the committees will be made, the chairmanships, of course, going to Democrats.
 The Democrats will have, when ! the senate meets with it's new mem bers in their seats, 45 votes, the Republicans 39, and the Populists 4, if, as now seems assured, N. Dakota and Wyoming elect Democrats. The new senators, those who will for the first time take seats in the chamber, are: Stephen M. White of California. John Martin of Kan sas, Henry Cabot Lodge of Massa- chussetts, Wm. V. Allen of Nebras- ka, James Smith, Jr., of New Jersey, Edward Murphy, Jr., of New York, J. N. Camden of West Virginia, J. w. Mitchell of Wisconsin, and Wm. L. Lindsay of Kentucky. Camden succeeds to the seat made vacant by the death of John K. Kenna and Lindsay will fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of John G. Car lisle to take the treasury portfolio in Clevelands cabinet.
 The legislature of Florida does not meet until April 4, when the members will choose a successor to Senator Samuel Pasco. He will be democrat, of course.-Ex.
