Officers arc elected and paid to en-
force the law. TO punish violators
and prevent infractions of law are
their sworn duties. A sacred trust
il placed in them by the people
when they are chosen to fiji an office,
and any neglect of their duty, or
any disregard OF this trust is Grim
inal. Foran officer to pervert his
official position and Use it to shield
crime and protect premeditated vio-
lators of the law is outrageous and
his resignation and Imprisonment
should at once be demanded There
are comparatively few instances of
such falsitY ON record, but this
country is afforded conspicuous
example at this time. Sheriff Houpt,
OF Garland county, has used every
available means for the past few
days to smuggle Bob Fitzsimmons
into Hot Springs and thus allow the
prize fight to take place between he
and Corbett,
In order to arrest him as soon as
he reached Arkansas soil and thus
prevent other officers with a differ
ent OBJECT it view of laying hands on
him, Sheriff Houpt met the party in
Texas and as soon as the train
crossed the boundary line at Texar-
kama, served his friendly warrants
on Fitzsimmons. He was foiled by
Gov Clarke, however, who sent
other Sheriffs to arrest the pugilist
and bring him to Lutte Rock, which
was done, and the prize fight Mt
least temporarily ayerted.
The good people of Garland county
cannot afford to allow the perpetra-
tor of this outrage togo unpublished,
and they should at least demand the
Sheriff's resignation.

COMING TO PINE BLUFF.
Paupers Who Desire to Pass the Winter
Here

Now that the timeforcold weather
is here the usual string OF paupers
who come to Pine Bluff each winter
may soon be expected The advance
guard OF the tribe is already here,
for day by day the Police Depart
ment is called on for charity by
Some OF these impecunious ones
some OF these applicants are, perhaps,
deserving people, who through sick
ness or misfortune, are out OF em-
ployment and truly need a helping
hand extended to them, yet in most
cases the applicants are professional
buns" or paupers. and should be
given time in which to get out OF
the city. There should be, ii there is
not already, an ordinance passed
making the bringing OF panpers in
to this city by amy public carrier an
ofense punishable by fine, and the
police should arrest the persons
connected with the railroads who
violate the ordinance. Tie deserT-
ing and unfortunate poor certainly
need care and aid. Sometimes Il
ease occurs when an unfortunate
person is taken sick and Is without
money or friends. He naturally
calls on the Police Department for
aid. They are powerless to render
him assistance, unless by taking
money from their small salaries
with which to suecor the applicant.
No money is appropriated by the
city for this purpose and there is no
hospital here to which the sick and
needy may be sent. Pine Bluff is
amply large and prosperous enough
to maintain some kind OF a house Of
refuge, and it is a sad commentary
that she has not one.
The GRAPHIC learns that Il ply
stefan of this city has madea prop
osition to the Ladies' Hospital and
Benevolent Association, agreeing
that if the County, city ana the
Association would each pay him
$50 per month that he would es-
tablish and maintain hospital
with five beds, and for that sum
would feed and give the inmates
nurses and medical attention. This
seems'to be most excellent propo-
sition,and if it was accepted The pay
would not inconvenience the City,
County or Hospital Association
and the hospital would in the end
be the means Of saving money to
our charity inclined people. and
save much annoyance to everyone.

THE MONROE D0CTRINE.

The controversy between Great
Britain and Venezuela over u boun-
Diary line and the action taken by
Secretary Olney in notifying the
former country that it must not
violate the Monroe doctrine in as
sorting its rights, has again
awakened interest ia that memoir
able document. THE Monroe doc
trine, says the Commeycial.Appca7,
chad its origin in the threatened IN
teryention of the allied Nations Of
Europe, composing what was des-
ignated as the Holy Alliance, for the
purpose of reducing the American
colonies of Spain, which had success
fully revolted against the mother
country. The so-called Holy Ali
ance was formed between the rulers
of Russia, France, Austria and
Prussia soon after the downfall of
the first Napoleon, and was for mu-
sual protection against the revolu-
tionary movements or attempts to
overthrow the existing dynasty not
only in their own bat in any other
country Of Europe Il was in pnr-
snance of this compact that a revo-
luton in Spain against Ferdinand
VII was suppressed by French
armies and the King restored to his
throne; and il was then proposed to

extend the principle of Intervention
by fecdhquering for Spain her re-
volted colonies in America. These
had already thrown off the Spanish
yoke and their independence had
been recognized by the United
States. Tt was against this partie-
ular project that President Monroe
in his annual message Of 1923 laid
down the specific doctrine that
the Holy Alliance should not be
allowed to extend their system to
this hemisphere, and the general
principle that while we should not
interfere with the existing colonies
or dependencies Of European pow
ers, We could not tolerate any effort
on their part to Cypress American
governments whose independence
had been acknowledged by the
United States; and that the Ameri-
can continents should no longer be
subjects for any new European col
onial settlements. In brief, the
Monroe doctrine is that European
powers must not disturb the map Of
the American continent; that what
ever possessions they have on this
hemisphere they may keep, but they
mustn't try to oct any moro.

THE temperance cause has strong
ally in the labor-saVing machinery
in use in nearly all industries today.
The touch OF drunken hand sets a
good machine wild, and the anger Of
a wild machine creates too much de-
struction to life and property and is
too expensive for the owners of ma
chinery to keep in their employ men
who habitualIy drink. A man must
be sober and have all his sense
about him to run any kind of ma

REP0RT ON STRIKES.

allaOOf Cohlak " flSue "
port on strikes in the United States,
recently published, teaches many
valuable lessons. 1t clearly shows
that the burdens of these labor wars
have almost invariably fallen upon
the laboring people--those less able
to bear while capital has suffered
very little. 1.-The loss to working
men by strikes and loekouts during
the thirteen and half years ending
June 80, 1894, amounted to $3.50, 439,
49,, and to employers only 1914, $50,
837, says the Louisville Courier
Journal
"But there are other lessons to be
aeduced from this report, it adds.
Cover 25 per cent. Of all these
strikes were caused by the refusal OF
a demand for increased wages; over
- per cent. by refusal for a rednc-
ton of hours; Go per cent. by re-
fusal of demands for increase OF
wages and reduction ofhoars;almost
s. per cent. because of sympathetic
action with other strikes; while in
but a little over 8 per cent. have
they been inspired by the deter
mination of employers to cut down
wages. In other words, in a ma
iority of cases the aggressive has
been taken by the weaker party.
sFrom standpoint of averages the
report shows another evidence Of
the misery strikes entail. Only
A. 40 per cent. of the total number
of strikes have been successful;
though in l1.25 per cent. the strik-
ers have been conceded part of their
demands. Total failures we're made
in 1923 per cent, a fraction less
than the number that we're success

E. p George has had long and
eventful career. He has touched the
world at many points, and his wide ex-

the vicissitudes OF life, have made him
charitable and tolerant. He has trav-

the tour of Europe, an accommodate
ing neighbor and liberal in his support
of religious work by any denomination.
An incorporating republican, he has

dozen years member of the County
Committee, and eight years member
of the State Committee, succeeding
Gen. Thomas. He has been select

In 1871 Mr.. Eastman sold his share

st. Johnsbury, and the brothers contin-
ued together in business four years. In
February, 1889, the old tin shop was
burned, and everything was lost except
hope and courage. In the face of many
dlscouragements and some opposition,
he commenced his new shop the sue
ceeding October, and occupied it one
month later. This shop is substan-
tial building, two stories with basement,
and flat roof, 32x36 feet. Here he
conducted general country tin shop,

There is no better place to study
human nature than in the bar-room of
the old Eagle Hotel at West Fairlee.
}I-..Iepe ven will f1rd the rreeAeia-s youth
rejoicing in his first cigar, the smart
commercial traveller with his funny
story, the newspaper fellow ready to
apply the pump to anybody, ''the old
neighbor" from Vershire, the "town
father" who knows just how things
ought to be, or in other words just how
they used to be, and other peculiar
characters too numerous to mention, a
job lot of humanity, with "our genial
host" Warren Gilman, as committee Of
introduction and master of ceremonies.
He has rented the hotel and been in
the business little more than one
year, but he takes to it like duck to
the water. There is good natured,
happy-go-lucky, go-as-you-please way
about Warren, that makes everybody
feel perfectly at home. He sets good
table, and if you ask for fish he will not
give you serpent, if you ask for beef,
you will not get bit of ancient COW
cuticle that ought to have gone to the
tanner, and he will find time to tell
you just where everybody in town and
out of town lives, and all about it.
The Eagle Hotel is center for the tray
cling public from Fairlee to Chelsea
and from Bradford including Corinth,
to North Thetford.
As a result of his own we'll directed
efforts, and this favorable location, Gill
man is building up good custom. In
addition to his hotel, he runs livery
stable. the freight delivery business of
the town with three heavy teams, three
farms including $40 acres, and is first
selectman. He stands all this racket
we'll, and he comes of the
good, old, hardy, prolific stock of the
days when they used to raise boys and
girls up among the Vershire hills.
Joseph Gilman came to Vershire
when the town was almost an unbroken
and reared family of IL
children. Warren Gilman, his son,
lived here the 81 years of his life, and
reared six children. Warren c., was
born on this ancestral home in Sept.
1874, and was the home boy, remain
ing with his father upon the farm until
the death of his father in 1881, and six
years later.
There was large and excellent flock
of sheep on the farm, at one time num-
boring 600, and one of the thorough
breds sheared ~ pounds. The Gil
mans had an eye for good horses, and
reared and matched some fine teams,
selling one span for SI2oo, another to
Senator VIM. M. Evarts for the pretty
sum of $4,000. In 1887 Mr.. Gilman
moved to West Fairlee, and since that
time has run livery and several freight
delivery teams.
In 1860, w. c. Gilman married
Della, daughter of Nathan Brown, of
South STAFFORD, and they have four
children. The sons, Geo. W., and
John, aged respectively 10 and II, are
students at Dartmouth, and the daugh-
ters are attending school at White
River Junction. Mr.. Gilman is pub
