said to have been after his forty days
fast SO long as there is even the ap-
pearance of push and progress among
our people, we are the last to COM
plain, but when we see other cities
far inferior IN size and commercial
Importance so far outstripping her in
the race for honors and advancement,
the impulse TO speak out becomes
irresistible. Why should Texarkana
sit still while all other competitors
rush boldly forward in the fray. Has
she not the same need and an equal
desire for industrial progress, COM
mercisl importance and local renown
as that of her neighbors? Surely she
is not lacking in equipments for the
fight. Clothed with all Of the natural
advantages of location and position
and armed with resources which
young metropolis might envy, she
has only to enter the field with
bold brow and willing arm, to con-
quer all adversares and wrest the
chaplet of victory from the hands of
smiling fortune.
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1893-05-29
Importance of Action.

The active work of surveying, grad
ing and general construction along
the route of the new air line railway
system, from Kansas City, Mo-, to the
gulf, is being pushed forward without
delay. This great sy stem, embracing
the Kansas City, Pittsburg & Gulf,
the Split Log and the Texarkana and
Fort Smith railways, promises to be
one of the most important railway
lines in the South. The road, when
completed, will be on all air line from
Kansas City to the gulf, shortening
the existing distance by rail, between
these points four hundred miles or
one-third of the entire distance as
now travelled. Upon this new rail-
way system Texarkana occupies by
far the most advantageous position,
situate as she Is on central ground be-
tween the two objective points Of the
system. We have only to take advan-
tage of our situation and the many
favorable opportunities thus afforded
to make our city the commercial and
industrial metropolis Of this impor-
tant system. But this result cannot
be even hoped for without adequate
effort on the part of the city and her
people, whose present inactivity must
be changed into prompt and vigorous
action. Let us to work with a will
and cease not until every possible
benefit to be derived from this great
source Of general good has been Sc
cured and employed in the upbuild-
ing of our city.
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1893-05-29
WHY NOT TEXARKANAp

We notice from the Hope papers
that the enterprising citizens Of our
sister city are forging steadily ahead
with their preparations for another
Annual Fair, to begin on October 17th
and continue six days. This news,
while It inspires us with admiration
for the energetic and enterprising
spirit displayed by our neighbors,
fills US with regret for our own peo-
pie. Last week it was Paris, Texas
neighbor, which was the scene OF one
of the most extensive and gorgeous
displays ever witnessed In North
Texas. this week comes the announce
ment that Hope, and Camden,
our Arkansas neighbors, are
to hold their regular Fall fairs.
For Heavens sake, what Is Texarkana
going to do? We have not had any
trade display, Ms yet, and our prospect
for q fair is as slim as Dr. Tanner was
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1893-05-29

origin an honest intent to better the
condition of the people no one will
for moment question. But whether
the effort will prove practical or the
remedy worse than the disease it seeks
to cure, are problems which time and
experience only can answer. The new
law goes into effect on the first day of
July and the rules regulating the dis
pensary have already been issued.
They provide that dispensaries must
be closed at p. m. the year round.
Applications for the purchase of
liquor will not be received from any
person who cannot write or make q
cross, and no application of the per-
son can be filled oftener than once a
day. A state constable or detective
will be detailed to run down all per-
sons suspected of infringing on the
law. The prices of the various brands
of liquor will be kept posted in each
county dispensary and an officer who
deviates from the prices will be dis
missed.
Governor Tillman says the cheapest
whiskey will be retailed at So a gal
Ion, rs cents quart, 40 cents pint
and 20 cents half pint, and only the
purest liquors will be sold. Under the
law dispensaries are not to be estab-
lished unless a majority of the free
holders voters petition for it. The
governor says the state will make 81
profit on every gallon of liquor sold,
and estimates that the State will clear
$500,000 the first year.
Right here it is that lies the rock
upon which we predict the vessel of
will split. For the state to attempt
to better the condition of her intem-
perate citizens by improving the quail
ity of the liquor they drink or to les
sen the amount by imposing certain
conditions of a restrictive or prohibit
tive character is all well and good.
But when a state government seeks to
enrich itself by going into the saloon
business outright, we expect nothing
but failure and misfortune to follow.
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1893-05-29
KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
