FINANCIAL.

TIE TIMES has not lost interest in securing financial legislation. but it be lieyes that it is waste of energies to undertake to secure 1t from the present congress.
 With all the lights before us shining from the special session we are con yinced that the great panic was made. Manufactured like calico, by spinning and weaving, thead by thread. in or der to accomplish one great end-force the issue of bonds and swell the con- tents Of chests already oyeT7lowing We prophesied then that no matter whether the scheme faReG or not. times were compelled to improve, be- cause money-hoarding is d very eX- pensiye pastime and not to be prolonged by shrewd men. The condition of the country became perilous. Thousands of innocent citizens have been made to suffer financial distress, which only long years of patient tol will reinstate to their usual rating. Intelligent and uncompromising ballots for pledged democratic representatives, only, will prevent the success of this awful scheme, If, indeed, it be not consummat- ed before the people are given another opportunity to express their disapproval at the polls.
 To avoid sGch calamity it will be necessary for the masses to educate themselves and vote intelligently and dispassionatelg

 The panic of 1893 is subsiding and the new year opens up bright and promising to those who have ill-power and energy. This is in nowise trace able to the repeal of the Sherman law. and the government which itself, It was said, would be relieved, IS still struggling with the question of raising gold. while it hGards its tons of silver
 The unparalleled stsgnation in in- vestments, and business of all kifsds, and even of individual energies. which characterized our common country from June until the latter part of Be cember, 1893, is giving place to grad ual improyement-a slow but steady and. therefore, safe improvement which is building on the lessons learned in the distress of the year just closed and which we sincerely hope will not be repeated in future history.
 THE TIMES is thankful that but one of Arkansas representatives saw it to become traitor to the requirements of his constituents. and the accepted in- depreciation of the party platform. May they never grow less patriotic.

FREE ADVERTISING

Tlrs TINES believes that it is uu- warranted in publishing the names of prospective candidates. It has no right Co use the nanse of any individual sss s candidate, prospective or other wfse> for pRblic office, unless author- Izes 90 to do by the owner of that uasae. True, there is no written law which feroids Sech publication. neither IS there any harn to the individual, that awe areaware of. but it IS grossly unjust to ourselves. Ttfs is in no wise selfish whin. It is in accordance with the time-honored maxim that ''self-preservation is the first law of nature"
 The formal announcement of can didate invariably reads "Tnf TInEs is authorized to announce" Sc. Un- less authorized, statement that a man should. would or could be can didate beafs no weight nor influence, nor stability, An authorized an neuncement should be in formal way. When this is done the editor then feels at liberty to make such crticis@s. or pronounce such eelogies. ss he thinks proper and right Made under other circumstances what might be a de- served and enviable notice, wears the garb of small fiattery and fawning ob- sequiousDess.
 THE TIMES is sorry to note the large amount of free and unsolicited adver- tising which the press of the state is furnishing pros oeetive candidates. We read with go small copceEn, celaxn after column. of these free advertise ments. We look upon such work as an- professional and unprofeSSional and unworthy the editor who loves the prof. ession and is willing and an anxious to elevate 1t higher and higher. It is certainly unbusinesslike and hurtful to other papers who do not see proper to fill their columns with free puffs and common fat;ery. for the sake of boost Ing men Tn tO ODce-
 Space in newspaper is to it's owner the same as dry goods and groceries to the merchant. Space is our stock in trade. We have a livelihood from its sale. It is valuable, and when used for the pecuniary benefit of another should be paid for just the same as you pay for any other commodity.
 The laberer is worthy Of hss hire. . We solicit the announcements Of all candidates, and beg to assure them that We fully appreciate their gifted talents, but do not feel at liberty to enlarge ! upon them without authority.
 Authority should invariably be -ac- companied by the cash.

THE loan and trust companies of the country were. perhaps more than any other class of persons, interested in the repeal of the Sherman law. To make scarcity of money among the debtor class insures the foreclosure of their mortgages. given for less than 'one-haif the value of the homestead which has long been cherished by an otherwise happy and contented family. Thank God, there are fewer mortgages in Arkansas than ill any other state in t.ie Union. and further contraction 'of the currency will harm us less. But We pity those who are deprived of their hard-earned savings by the operation 'of laws which they had right to ex- lpect wenla he perfected.

WHAT kind of justice is that which acqHits of the charge of carrying Dis toi a man who gets into 8 row in court Swipes out pistol, tries to kill a man. clears out court room, defies the court and 1t; officers and teTorizes d whole neighborhood, simply because Ire lives in another community and therefore is on a journey. That law was never intended to cover such d case. and although such eases are not frequent now, if our juries arrive at de 'cisions of this kind we may expect such lawlessuess to be on the increase.

THE. MIGHTY TRUTH.

That the cash system is best for both merchant and people nearly everybody is ready to acknowledge. With the eX- ception of a few concerns the business houses Of Pine Bluff give credit indis- criminately. and as result many bad accounts are made and many bad and uncollectable debts contracted. Just here is where the unfa5Tness of the credit system begins, for those who buy for cash are compelled to pay the losses which the merchants would otherwise sustain from bad debtors. and thus the person who buys for cash is charged d higher price because be has to make up his portion of the uncellected debts.
 The credit system mag be great convenience occasionally, to some peo- pie, but take it all in all, it is d bad and expensive thing. both to the buyer and the seller, and it would be blessed thing fer eur people if every merchant in the city would adopt the cash sys- tenn and adhere strictly to it. The Com mercial is pleased to note that q num- Der of leading firms are gradually ap preaching this end.-Pine Bluff Con- mercial.

 Many times We have written that le- gal notices of real or personal property to be sold must be published in some newspaper, This has been the law for years. and yet we lind stuck up around town aud at the court house, all kinds of notices for the sale of personal and real property. This may be the fault of the lawyers or It may be the fault of the individuals who tirink they know all about the law. 1t matters little who is to blame in the matter; all we have to say is that We fear hundreds of individuals will become sufferers by not following the statute. While to some extent we may be interested, yet, as a journalist, 1t is our duty to call at tention to this matter. Again, We say that such notices must be printed in a newspaper. even though an agreement in writing is made to the contrary Pine Bluff Commercial.

WHY THE JAPANESE WIN.
The Beauty Of Having Plenty OF Force
Where IL Is Needed.

The Beauty Of Having Plenty OF Force
Where It IL Needed.
Let rs consider what we mean by taking
cold
China Il ten times more popuious than Japan,
but the Japs have beaten their neighbors in
battle after battle.
What has that 20 do with taking cold
Merely this: the Japanese manage to be
stronger than the enemy at the points OF ac-
tual contact. That Is genera1ship.
Cold air strikes the skin, contracts the biood
vessels, and drives the blood to the interior
where the orPns are congestcd and perhaps
inhamed. 10 q not enough to take something
10 stop that cough" All the forces OF the
body must be reused 10 expcl the invader. and
the earlier In the campaign this is done, the
more complete will be the victory.
In other words, the best weapon against
cold Ia stinulant Of which Duhy's Pure Malt
whiskey IL the best example in the market.
Its effect on the blood Is 20 distribute IL where
II belongs and " keep the circulation brisk and
normal, IL Is fine appetizer and gives strong
and welcome support TO system run down by
work or worry, perhaps by combination OF
both.
Attention IL directed II the fact that Duffy',
Malt is a medicinal preparation. the purity of
and enables 10 30 give benefit where ordinary
whskeys would be valueless.
A cough is only a sign of cold. To 1uiet it
temporarily does not drive the enemy from the
body. The conquest OF a cold IL simple matter
when one uses Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey.-A Ado.
