TExARKANA HAS A SAY.

With view to the establishment
and endowment of Cumberland
Presby terial college, In the district
comprised in the Marshall Presbytery,
the committee appointed by that body
to formulate plans and perfect ar
rangements for said college have Is
sued circular letter to each Of the
several towns and cities contained in
this Presbytorial district, setting forth
the above facts and giving general
description OF the proposed school, at
the same time inviting each of them
caring to compete for the location of
said school to offe" such inducements
as may be seen fit to give to this end.
Texarkana is the only city out of
half dozen possibly desirable locations
that has not seen fit to make an offer
for this most excellent and desirable
educational institution. The commit
tee meets at Marshall, Texas, today 10
consider the several propositions sub
mitted and determine upon the one
which they Will refer to the Presby-
terry with recommendation to &C
cept. This, however by no means
closes or settles the matter, which
will not be finally passed upon by the
presbytery before June. In the mean
time Texarkana or any other COM
munity may submit an offer Of induce
ment to the Presbytery, direct, to be
voted upon on final consideration Of
the question. OF course the commit
tees recommendation will carry some
influence with II that would have to
be overcome by superior inducement
on the part Of our city. Now, the To-
cation of this school would be most
desirable and excellent thing for Tex
arkana, which, though not centrally
located, is by far the most convenient
location, owing to railway facilities to
and from every county In the Presby-
terial district, which embraces the
counties of Harrison, Marion, Cass
and part of Bowie Qncluhing Tcxar-
kana), Upsher, Camp, Morris, Panola,
Miller county, Arkansas; and Caddo,
DeSoto and part of Red River par
ishes, Louisiana With this school
Texarkana's future, as an educational
center, would be assured. The qucs-
tion now arises, why should we not
secure it2 1t is certainly In the city's
power TO offer such inducements as to
make Its selection morally certain. 1t
remains to be seen whether or not
Marshall or Jefferson shall distance
Texarkana IN this matter.

HORRIBLE MURDER.

A special dispatch from Pittsburg,
Kan, gives details of one of the most
horrible murders ever committed in
that state. The awful deed was COM
mitted early Sunday morning, and
was discovered few hours later The
victim was Mr.. William A. Chapman,
one of the most prominent citizens Of
Pittsburg. His dead body was found
in his store room with his throat cut
and his body fearfully cut and FLASHED
and covered with coaguated blood,
Mr., Chapman was the proprietor OF a
grocery and also was treasurer for
the A. O. u. w. Of Pittsburg. His
residence adjoined his store. For
some time past he had been sleeping
in his store OH account of the many
burglaries recently.
Sunday morning about 2 o'clock
Mrs. Chapman went to the store to
call her husband, and no response be-
inc made, she aroused couple Of
neighbors who forced the door when
horrible sight awaited them. On

AN IMPORTANT RULING.

AT the May term of the United
Stats District Court at Ardmore, |. r.,
one John Bannerman was convicted,
on a charge of cattle stealing, and sem
fenced to one years Imprisonment in
the Federal penitentiary at Anamosa,
Ia, and fined $1,000.
On May he was delivered at the
penitentiary. Through his attorneys
here writ of habeas corpus was ap-
piled for to Hon. Oliver P. Shiras,
United States judge for the northern
district of Iowa, Oh the ground that
no United States court could sentence
person convicted of crime to i'm
prisonment in a penitentiary unless
the punishment prescribed by law for
more than twelve monthe. Judge
Shiras refused the writ. Bannerman's
attorneys then applied TO the United
States supreme court for an original
writ of habeas corpus on the Same
grounds.
After considerable delay the court
granted the writ and discharged the
defendant. This settles a question of
law of much Importance, both to the
courts and the public. Heretofore all
the judges before whom cases of
larceny in the Indian country have
been tried and convicted have uni
formly sentenced the defendant to the
penitentiary. II is of interest to the
public, for under this construction of
the law one man can steal a trainload
or any number of cattle in the Indian
territory and the maximum punish
ment Is fine and twelve months in
Jail. An effort will be made TO havo
congress amend the law.

THE OTHER SIDE.

The old maxim that there are two
sides to every debatable question,
holds good with the farmer, as well
as with every other kind o" condition
of men, only, according to one of their
own number, they are too much given
to look on one side thereof and that
the dark side. The farmer who
makes this statement goes on to give
the other side, and in an open letter
to one of his state (Texas) papers,
does SO in the following apt and ex-
cellent manner:
Let US examine and compare tho
good old times of 10-cent cotton with
the present day. We got $50 for a
5OO-pound bale Of cotton in those
days and practically nothing for the
seed unless we returned them as fertil-
iEers to the soil which we cultivated.
AT present, putting cotton at 7 cents
per pound and the seed at $40 per ton,
we would get $40 tor our bale of cot
ton, and this is placing it at lower
estimate than large part of the pres
ent crop has been sold for We will
now compare the prices of some of
the leading articles of commerce
which farmers have to buy. With the
single exception of bacon TIE prices
upon all have been reduced nearly or
quite one-half and this exception is in
favor Of the farmer. Why should the
farmer be buy ing 15-cent bacon when
he can raise his own meat and have a
surplus to sell? Here is a good open
Ing for Texas farmers to improve their
past methods of confining themselves
alone to cotton. Sugar is now from
4 to 6 cents; formerly s to IL cents
per pound. Flour is from 81 to SIS a
barrel formerly $40 to $12. Calico,
4 to 8 cents per yard formerly 10 to
IL cents, and so ON. Might enumerate
many articles of necessity which the
farmer Is compelled to buy and which
have fallen in price from 20 to 100 per
cent since the departure of the good
old times of long ago. Let us learn
the spirit of contentment and to ap-
preciate the blessings which we already
possess.
We offer the above ideas to our own
farming friende and suggest that they
read and ponder over them, and if we
mistake not they will find both truth
and comfort iu the above lines

CUTTING DOWN PENSIONS.
Fifteen Millions Of Uncle Sans Dol
lars to be Saved the Government.

lars to be Saved the Government.
Congressman Sayers, of Texas,
chairman Of the House appropriation
committee has just reported the ap-
preparation bill for pensions. He and
his subcommittee have been very busy
on appropriation bills and in the work
done the Democratic promise of econ
omy seems to have been kept steadily
in mind. The pension bill reported
yesterday provides for the appropria-
ton of $15,0OO,O0O less than was ap-
propriated at the short session of last
congress. This is due, Congressman
Sayers says. to an exercise of more
care in the granting of more pensions
by the present pension commissioner
than has heretofore been exercised,
and moreover, there Is falling off in
the number on the rolls by death.
Congressman Sayers, as chairman
of the appropriation committee, is the
head of the subcommittee which has
special charge of the sundrY civil bill.
This bill when presented will show
reduction against the appropriations
made at the short session of some
thing in the nelghborhood of $4,000,
900, probably about 9,50O,0O0. The
bill as agreed on by the subcommittee
will be approved by The general com
mittee without any material change.
The actual amount Of reduction in the
two bills will be about $24,5O0,000.
Mr. Sayers is confident that his COM
mittee will be able to report reduc-
ton in the other appropriation bills
against those of the short session of
the last congress of about $11,000,000
This added to the reduction in the
sundry civil and pension bills will
make about $s5,OO0,000 from his COM
mittee alone. The appropriation bills
in charge Of Mr.. Sayer's committee
are the pensions, sundry civil, legisla-
tive, executive, foftifcations, district,
OF Columbia and deficiencies. 1t is
expected to reduce the deficiencies
$1O,00O,000 and the legislative, cxecu-
tive and judicial 100000, making
the $1l, 100000 mentioned. The ap-
bills not in the hands of
the Sayers committee are the river and
harbor, the agricultural, the diplomat
ic and consular, the postoffice, army
and navy bills If the safe spirit of
economy marks the work done by the
committee having these appropria-
tions in charge as has marked the
work of Sayers committee, then the
reduction below the appropriation
made at the short session of the fifty
second congress ought to go to $45,-
100000 at the very least

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
tbe needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive efectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval Of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid

every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
