Burt McAIullen, of Yen county, yester-
day made a desperate attempt on the
life of Colonel ]. N. Smithee editor of
the Arkansas Gazette. Senator Nc
Mullin entered the private office Of
Colonel Smithee, drawing a revolver
and at the same time demanding an
apology for editorial utterances made
by the latter in regard to the senator's
action in defeating the railroad COM
mission bill. When this was not forth

his feet and struck McMullins arm
causing the bullet to miss his body by

ENTITLED TO SUPPORT.
Always Working for the Welfare
of the Whole People.

The people do not half appreciate the
press. Daily papers are more than a
convenience, says the Knoxville Jour
nal" They constitute the very oxygen
Of city life. They educate and inform the
masses, launch and boom public enter
prises and devote endless space to the
mutual interests of the whole people.
thousand instances might be given.
City papers are almost always agitating
some scheme for the public welfare, and
when, after ceaselss toll, thir efforts are
crowned with success, their columns are
in most instances teeming with praise
for the part played by others, while the
credit due them for their splendid
achievements is never accorded.
When a gala day of any sort is sug-
gested, the papers advertise it as no
other agency could, and the result is
the day is a great success. People from
all over the country flock to the city
and leave their money with the city
merchants.
Every business man IS therefore in
dividually profited by the enterprise of
the papers. Besides this, he nearly al
ways gets a personal puff on his float,
his decorations or his particular part in
the festivities of the occasion.
II G. city wants to secure a manufac-
turing concern, the papers, as usual, are
called upon to fight the battle of in
dustry of the city. If the citizens pull
with the papers, the enterprise is located
and the city is immensely benefited.
The factory gives people employment,
they pay their bills for the matter they
consume, and it starts the ball of pros
perity rolling.
Such enterprise and public spirit
ought to be appreciated 1t costs a
great deal to publish papers and space
is all they have to realize from If, then,
they devote SO much of their space free
ly to the upbuilding Of the country the
people certainly ought to lend them all
possible encouragement and support.
The papers are the friends of the people.
They educate, agitate and advertise;
they teach the people to appreciate en-
terprise and industry and to become
public spirited and they are the con-
slant guards and agents of prosperity.
Surely, then, the support of the press
seems a moral obligation, the negligence
of which would be little short of a crime.
business men owe it to the papers to
advertise. Private citizens owe it to the
papers to become subscribers. 1t pays
to patronize the papers if it were not

diciously spent, is always paying in

depth of many feet as it is at the sur

proceed almost Indefinitely downward,
finding moisture and food all along
their course Even light sandy soils
which in humid climates would be al
most barren, may be found in Califor-

OF course, the almost infinite diversity
of Californian conditions extends to

there is not depth nor richness every

Judge of their presence by the crteria
he has applied in other lands, but the
trees and their fruits will give him un-
mistakable evidence.
The standing horticultural injunction
of other lands, to put your trees on
the best soils you have, and then tuck
them in closely beneath blankets of
the best prepared fertilizers, is not
good general rule in California. 1t
would be mistaken kindness in many
places. We really have soils too rich
for fruit trees and vines, unless one
is content to wait for years later than
the usual early bearing time, until the
reehas passed its youth, in riotous liv-
ing and astounding wood growth. There
are wide seas of land which is in mid
summer brown and bare, but conceals
beneath it's forbidding surface such
depths and richness that quarter of
a century of constant fruit cropping
would not perceptibly sap its strength.
Possibly within gunshot. however, are
other lands which could hardly bring
trees to satisfactory bearing age. Here,
too, California has rewards for the
highest human skill and knowledge
and disappointment for ignorance and
carelesSnesS.
In these few paragraphs it has been
freely intimated, and the widest OBJ
servation among our people will con-
firm the declaration, that the swift
advance and unparalleled achievements
of California horticulture are due not
more to the characteristic fitness of her
natural resources of climate and soil
than to her endowment of human SKILL
growers of California as a class are

the most intelligent and most highly
educated group of agricultural pro-
ducers in the world. They have come
from all civilized lands to take up res
1dence and investment here, and the
| ability to come so far on such intent
is pima facie evidence of the possess
sion of personal quality and resources
of distinguishing character They have
come bearing the fruits Of successful
enlistment in all the professions and
callings of mankind, and their trained
minds and quickened powers of obser-
walton have constituted the impelling
force of California's wonderful progress
during the last two decades. They
have pushed our fruit colony hamlets
into cities; they have extended and en-
riched our school system; they are the
most earnest promoters and patrons of
higher education; they have no fear
that their sons and daughters will be

pursuit of horticulture; they are de-

veloping the commercial features of our
fruit industries; they are constantly
improving our culture methods; they
are actively appreciative of the appli-
cation of the sciences to their pur-
suit, and they are quick to detect pre-
tension and fallacy.
The gift of the fruit interest, then.
to California is not alone the wealth
which can be calculated as the value
of outward shipments; not the Won
derful accretions on the county assess
ment rolls of improved property. The
greatest gain to the State is in the
line of higher citizenship, and, in fact,
it is this acquisition which has rem
dered all the other gains possible
