All Saloons Closed Yesterday.

Yesterday all of the saloons in
Texarkana were closed up hard and
last. Even the Telephone bar ten
ders could be seen resting, out on
the streets. 1t was probably the
first time in the history of the city
n which every saloon observed the
Sabbath according to law, by sell
ing no whisky or other strong
drink. We heard a man say an
old topper" offered So for a pint of
yhiskey, and could not get it.
Thus a new era dawns upon Texar-
cana, and law and order reigns SUI
)remely at last We congratulate
our good citizens on such grand
achievement, and trust the old days
Of disorder are now gone forever,
never to return.
And here we wish to claim some
credit for this paper, also for our
contemporary The TExARKANIAN
has constantly advocated in the
strongest terms Sunday observ-
lnce and law and order; the News
has also done this. To these pa
pers, as much as any other one
ching, is due the reformation and
change for decency, law and order,
in Texarkana. Some of our officers
and good citizens deserve much
credit for helping in the cause.
And we would not forget the
preachers (whom the lawless and
their friends love to abuse)-they
nave done yeoman service in the
good cause.
Three cheers for Texarkana and
aw and good order

The Heavy End of a Match.

breakfast table, as he asked for a
second cup of coffee, Give made
discovery"
well, Cyrus, you're about the
last one I'd suspect of such a thing,
but what is it?"
81 have found that the heavy end
of match is its light end, re-
sponded Cyrus, with a grin that
would have adorned skull.
Mary looked disgusted, but with
an air Of triumph quickly retorted
1--WE got a discovery, too, Cyrus
1t was made by DR.. R. V. Pierce
and is called the Golden Medica
Discovery" 1t drives away blotch
es and pimples, purifies the blood,
tones up the system and makes one
feel brand-new. Why, it cured
Cousin Ben, who had consumption
and was almost reduced to a skele
ton. Before his wife began to use
it she was pale, sickly thing, but
look at her: she's rosy-cheeked an(
healthy, and weighes 165 pounds
That, Cyrus, is a discovery worth
mentioning"

THEY WANT THE EARTH.

A correspondent of the Courier
Journal, writing from New Orleans,
gives some facts in connection with
the expenses of raising sugar cane
and the profits derived from the
crop, which clearly show that the
sugar planter can get along with
out bounty. He shows that with
out bounty or protection of any
kind the sugar planter can make
more money than the cotton plant
err or the wheat farmer. He says;
ut can be easily demonstrated
to the satisfaction of any fair mind
ed man that the condition of the
sugar planter would be much better
than that of the cotton, corn or
wheat grower without the bounty
and with sugar duty free. 1t is
admitted that the refneries can
pay 1926 ton for cane without
bounty or duty. They can pay
that and make living profits manu-
featuring sugar AS stated above,
one man can cultivate and cut rea
dy for the refinery fifteen acres of
cane a year. The average crop will
not fall far short of twenty tons to
the acre. Twenty tons to the
acre at 81. 25 ton would bring $45.
From fifteen acres of cane 1913
would be realized.
In the cotton country the aver
age amount gross realized from an
acre of land per anuum is not more
than 500. The wheat farmer real
ICES gross from Sc to 81 an acre, and
in the best corn country from $50
to $18 an acrea is considered a good
return. The expense of planting,
cultivating, cutting and getting
ready for delivery of an acre of
cane is about one third more than
the expense of planting, cultivating
and picking an acre of cotton,
about twice as much as expense of
planting, cultivating and gathering
an acre of corn, and about four
times as much at the expense of
planting, harvesting and getting
ready for the mill an acre of wheat.
So it will be seen that taking the
country over the cane grower, with
out any protection whatever,
would realize better results to the
tune of from 80 to IS per cent than
can be realized by any other class
of agriculturists,
The trouble with the Louisiana
sugar planter is that he wants the
earth. He is conscientiously OPP
posed to working himself or even to
supervising the work of his planta-
ton, It must be done by highpriced
managers, superintenents and
overseers. He must realize big re-
turns for his outlays of cash and
leisure time, and if any political
party interferes with him in realiz-
ing such returns that party is 60
ing to find him arrayed against it.

THE FIRST FIRE IN 1894.
The Residence of J. A. I'ail Burned
 Monday Morning.

l Monday morning about o'clock the handsome residence of J. A. Vail on north LerouS street was discovered to be on fire. The usual alarm was given but for some reason it awakened but q few of OUT citizens. Those who re- sponded worked with a will. but they could not put out the fire, which orig mated behind the range in the kitchen and worked its way between the par. titions Go the second floor, and spread through tho entire building, which was totally destroyed. The furniture in the front rooms in both stories was ta- ken out, but tho amount saved was small.
 MT. Vail and his family, who were sleeping up stairs, were taken down from the front balcony by the means of q ladder.
 The residence was finished about year ago and was the finest and most commodious in town. It cost Mir. Vail in the neighborhood of $S, ,000, and the furniture cost S2,500 more.
 The building was insured for $5 ,00O and the furniture and wearing apparel for $2, ,O0O.
 The family lost about all their cloth ing, as the rooms in which it was kept could not be reached for the dense smoke which filled the house.

iperIshea on the Plains.

On Monday Coroner Prime receive, atelegram from Dick Jackson at CanyoI Diablo that the dead body of an un known man had been found near Sun. set Pass. The coroner, accompanied by Ed. Whipple and Dr, Francis left for Canyon Diablo and thence for Sun set Pass. A coroner's jury was taken from the canyon. Justice Prime re- turned last night and Ed. Whipple and Dr. Francis went to Winslow to gain further information.
 The dead man was found lying on his back under q cedar tree. When in life he was evidently fine looking man. He was about feet 10 inches in height, weighed 175 pounds, had dark hair and red mustache. He was without a coat or hat and had on underclothes but no overshirt. His age was about 30 years. A memorandum book was the only thing found on his person and it contained the names of Winslow par ties. Ed. Whipple returned last night, and from information received there the unfortunate man is supposed to be one Ramsey, who some three months ago after a periodical spree suddenly disap- peared. He was travelling for some paint concern and had brother near Holbrook. The body was buried where it was found. The jury rendered verdict in accordance with the above facts,

Muscle and vigor-A Difference.


 Many muscular men succumb to fa- tigues borne with ease by persons far their interiors in physical strength. Muscle does not imply vigor. In fact, it is not difficult of proof that athletes do not live as long nor enjoy as good health as the average individual who is vigorOuS-that is to say, whose di- gestion and sleep are unimpaired whose nerves are tranquil, and who has no organic tendency to disease. These requisites of vigor are conferred upon those inherently weak, no less than upon those debii:atcd through wasting disease, by thorough persist ent course of Hostctter's Stomach Bit ters, the leading national tonic, in- dorsed and recommended by physicians of eminence. It will not endow you with the muscle of Corbett, but it will infuse energy into yonr system, and renew the active and healthful performance of its functions. 1t averts and cures malarial, rheumatic and kid ney complaints, and ovcrcomes dyspep- sia, constipation, liver trouble and nervousness.
