IN the. coming municipal election the selection of marshal is, perhaps, the most important matter before the voters. We consider the office of Mar shal of Forrest City one of the most important offices in the county. For rest City is the capital of great coun- ty, and to very great extent her dig nity and reputation is in the keeping of her police. The peace and quiet of the town rests with the police officer. Upon him depends the question as to whether or not the lawless element shall override the decencies and pro- prieties of civilized community. In fact his duties are numerous and all important to the community. Let us consider we'll the qualifications of those who offer themselves for this office. Unless all other things be equal per sonal friendship or petty disllkes should not enter into the consideration in making choice. Only let us ask ourselves as to the fitness of the can didate for the office he seeks. Is he man who has the courage of his con- victions, is he sober, honest and capa- ble. Does he believe in enforcing not one but all the laws on the book. Would ne wink at the violation of one statute while he makes haste to arrest for the violation of another. Does he believe Tn pure morals and strict enforce ment of the law against all classes, high or low, calm or desperate, and is he worthy of the respect and endorse ment of the community. Are we will ing to hold up his hands in all things. These are the questions which we should satisfactorily answer before casting vote to fill this important office.

HE TIMES presents the announce
 ment today of Major r. o. Thweatt of
 Phillips county, for Circuit Judge In
 speaking of his candidacy, the Helena World says: Major F. 0. Thweatt formally announces, in this issue of the World, his candidacy for the Judgeship of the First Judicial Circuit, subject to the action of the Democratic party. Major Thweatt is we'll known all over
 the district as an able lawyer and ele-
 gant, courteous gentleman, who would
 adorn the bench. Away back in the CO.'S Major Thweatt was Prosecuting Attorney for this district, Judge Hanks
 being the Presiding Judge. Both of them were busted on the inauguration
 of the period of reconstruction. Major 1 Thweatt has never held an office since that time, confning himself to the
 practice of his profession and to the
 management of his planting interests. He has been prominently identified
 with the levee interests of this section. serving as a Director of Cotton Belt ieyee District No. l, continually since the formation of the District in 1887.
 He has had occasion to go to Washing ton and to New York several times in behalf of levee interests and his efforts have always been crowned with success.
 Major Thweatt is q good man. good lawyer and a good democrat and would make good Judge. We hope he will be elected.n

OUR announcement column this week contains the name of John w. Ayen
 as candidate before the Democratic party for .re-election to the office of Treasurer of St. Francis County, which office he now holds and has filled cred itably and honorably for the last eigh-
 teen months. Mir. Aven carried the ban ner of Democracy bravely and success fully at time when democrats had lit- tie hope. He entered campaign
 which was expensive and discouraging, and had, perhaps, the hardest fight ot
 any candidate in the race. Not con tent with having been fairly beaten.
 his opponent contested the election and
 the contest is still pending. He has been harrassed by this contest since he
 has been holding the office and has spent every dollar the office has been worth ill defending his title to it. For these reasons and the fact that the un-
 written law gives faithful ser want second term, MT. Ayen would seem to be entitled to re-nomination. yet he solicits votes only upon his
 merits. He has discharged the duties of the office faithfully, honestly and satisfactorily and endeayored to make
 good and true servant of the people. | How we'll he has succeeded he leaves it
 with the democracy to say by their in- I dorsenaent or non-ipdorsement at the
