WHAT in thunder does 8 man want to lug a four or i've pound revolver with him all the time for is certainly something that passeth understanding.

Let the dirt-dobbers continue their malicious war on Gov. Fishback. They could not hurt him two years ago, and since that time be has grown more popular every day.

THE declaration of principles of the Anarch- ist is exceedingly short and easily understood. The doctrines are included in the following: ''O No property. war on capital. on privileges of every kind and on the oppression of man by man. @ No fatherland, no boundary limos, no battles of the people with the people. (0 No state, war on every species of authority, elective or not. dynastic. temporary. or even parliamentary" These are the promuigations of the congress of Lausanne of 1876. and are held as tho fundamental principles of the Anarchists at this time. There is just enough .'war" on the social order in this declaration to make every Anarchist an enemy of the human raoe.-Arkansas Democrat.

oATEs's ROMANTIC CAREER.
The Life of the Democratic Nominee
for Governor of Alabama.

The Hon. william c. Oates. who has
received the democratic nomination for
governor Of Alabama. is a typical south
erDer. He was born in Pike NOW Bull
lock- county. Alabama, November, 1850
He educated himself. studied law, was
admitted to the bar IN 1858 and became
a successful lawyer and business man.
In July, 1861. he entered the confed-
crate army as captain cf company G,
Fifteenth Alabama infantry, was ap-
pointed colonel in the provisional army
of the confederate states in May. 1862,
ard was assigned to the command Of mis-
old regiment. Later on the Forty eighth
Alabama regiment was also placed under
his command. He was wounded four
times slightly and twice severely, losing
his right arm in front Of Richmond on
Aug. 16 1864, I'm the twenty-seventh bat
tie he was engaged in.
In 1865 Col. Oates was elected a dele
gate to the democratic national conven-
ton which nominated Seymour for the
presidency. He was elected TO congress
In 1880, and has remained a member OF
that body ever since and has long occu-
pied a leading position on the democratic
side. Among the things that have
brought him prominently before the
country during his congressional career
were his leadership of the minority in
the fllbustering against the direct tax
bill in the spring OF 1888, when at the
head Of a small band of determined men
he kept the house in a deadlock for eight
days As a member OF the judiciary COM
mittee he conducted the investigation
into the Homestead troubles of 1892. and
made a very radical report condemning
both sides. He entered upon his cam
paign for the gubernatorial nomination
as an out-and-out administration man
and has won after a severe struggle.
When Col oates was recovering from
the effects Of the amputation OF his arm
he fell I'm love with the eldest daughter
Of the family into whose house he had
been received His suit was not favored
by the young lady. but one day her moth
er said to him laughingly: Never mind,
captain: you just walt for so and So"
pointing to the baby in the cradle she
was rocking. You can have her by and
by" The captain laughed. The baby
began TO grow to girlhood and Oates was
interested IN all she did. When she be-
came OF marriageable age he reminded
her mother of the old promise. made
over the baby's cradle. There was no
opposition 10 the match, and the couple
are unusually happy This accounts for
the difference In age at which many
people have wondered Mrs. Oates is q
pretty woman, with southern grace and
hospitality, and devoted TO her husband.

Of the Roman state has law received so

missions to the university to make a

uncalled for. He closed as follows:

or widows without children: that their
obedience TO the directress should be alb
solute, and that they must not receive
male visitors or go out of the establish
ment.
1T is also needless to remark that
nothing could be more harmful than to
make young girls give theatrical enter
tainments or to excite their emulation
by class distinctions. That is all good
enough for men who may be called upon
to speak in public, and who, being
obliged to learn many things, have need
of stimulants in the form of emulation.
But no emulation is needed for young
girls. Their passions must not be aroused
or their vanity, the most active of the
passions of the sex, brought into play.
Light punishments and the praise of the
directors seem TO me sufficient for all
penalties and rewards. But classical
ton by means of ribbons does not, in my
opinion. produce a good effect, if it has
any other object than that of distin-
gushing the ages of the pupils, or If 1t
esta blshes any kind of superiority.

ONE OF THE TRIALS OF DIVORCES.
Feelings of a Devoted Mother Who
Left Her Children Wrought Up.

The conversation took place at table
in a restaurant within earshot of half
dozen people so IL is to be presumed
that it is not to be considered particu-
larly sacred The woman in the brown
dress had evidently just come in from
Denver; the one in black had met her at
the depot There was ar animated de-
scription of the details of the journey;
what time she started, how tired she
got, what a terrible draft there was, and
SO forth, interspersed with EXPLANATIONS
Of sympathy from her nearer. Then she
leaned forward and asked with more
than ordinary interest:
Have you seen George slnce?"
Her companions face took on an ex-
preston that seemed to betoken reNigna-
ton TO all the evils the human race is
