 Nobody but Teddy knew how many errands he had run and how many paths he had swept and how much candy and popcorn and butter scotch he had not eaten to get together that 67 cents. As soon as he could earn just 18 cents more they were all to go for tho little steam engine in the toyshop window
 Just five minutes later Teddy stepped into Miss Priscilla shop with his little red savings bank in his hand He emp tied it on the counter, and out came rolling such swarm of dimes and nick els and penniesl Miss Priscilla was so surprised that her eyebrows went right mp to her littlo gray eurls
 Say, I fired that snowfall, said Teddy bravely. So I ought to pay for it. 'course, you know.
 Well, you are an honest boy" said Miss Priscilla. But you are dreadful careless.

reason, is more intimate and cordial with America than with England. Furthermore, Russia is in inter- national matters the constant friend of the United States; and it is very much more important for King Oscar to maintain harmonious re. lations with his powerful neighbor on the East than with England. It is therefore totally falIacious to suppose that Oscar, even if not naturally disposed to be fairminded, would be biased in favor of England and secretly anxious to further British interests as against those of the United States. It seems to us nothing could have been 8 better evidence of England's perfect frank ness and good faith in signing this arbitration treaty than her consent 10 have King Oscar named as the umpire under specified contingent ciae

TIE Legislature of 1895 passed an act requiring all assessors and tax collectors to keep q record of the amount of taxes paid respectively by persons of the white and colored race The first report of the State Auditor since the passage of that act is at hand, and it discloses some very interesting and important in- formation relative to the amount of taxes paid respectively by the white and colored people of this State It has often been wondered by people residing outside of the State, and especially in the North and East, how it comes with her big popula- tion of c0lored people that the State of Arkansas rolls up such large Democratic maiorities at every elee- tion. The answer will be found in the Auditors report for 1895 G. As is we'll known, every voter in this State must hold tax receipt, at q cost of $l, as condition precedent to the exercise of the franchise. According to the report of the State Auditor, the total poll tax collected from the colored people for the last fiscal year was $40, ,289, while the total poll taxes collected from the white people amounted to $157, 9S6. The total tax of the State from other sources amounted in the aggregate to $2,74S, 4S7 43, of which amount $2, 635, 366,45 was paid by white, and $113, 12O89 was paid by colored people. From this it is obvious that the white people pay the taxes and do the voting in Arkansas. And those who bear the burdens of gov ernment should also reap the fruits of it.

TIE GRApnIe desires to say that the new chancery district for this county is utterly useless, and will simply entail additional expense upon the people. We do not believe that the measure IS favored even by q majority of the Jefferson County Bar. The bill was indorsed at a meeting of the Bar Association by a small majority, and even that meeting did not express the senti- ments of all the members. The fact of the business is that if all the lawyers and judges, Circuit and Chancery, would work more, and loaf less, the Jefferson county docket would not be so crowded with work that remains undone. It is a fact notorious that litigation has grown steadily less in this county for the past three years, and in view of this fact, together with the fact that we have both a Circuit and Chaneery court, we can see no reason what ever for a change in our present court system. The Jefferson Coun- ty Bar was never satisfied until this county was put into a Chancery district, and now that they have it, they are still discontented Gan | the lawyers never be satisfied? Are not the expenses of the courts enough already, without adding the name of another Judge on the pay roll of the State at a cost of $2, 800 q year. The GRAPHIC believe it voices the sentiment of the people of Jeffer son county. as well IS 2 majority of the.members of the Bar, rin entering it's protest against the passage of the bill.

THE notion that King Oscar, Of Sweden and Norway would be un- duly preiudiced in favor of England and against the United States in arbitration proceedings is altogether a delusion, says the Rerfeao ef Re oieaos for March: .sHe is a man eminently of the judicial temper ament. Moreover. the Scandanav- ian Peninsula is in the strongest sort of sympathy with the people of
 the United States. King Oscar is
 himself ruler of Democratic spirit,
 and the Swedes and Norwegians ar, elf-governing peoples. If ther, should ever be war between tn, United States and England, many thousands of the sons of Swedef ard Norway, who are now citizen. of this country, would take part il the strife. A very large share oi l the best blood of the Scandinavian Peninsula has been transferred t6 our Northwestern States. Owing to this fact, the Scandanayians maintain a more intimate relation ship with the people of the United States than with any European nation just as the relationship oi the people of Ireland, for the sam

Governor, now ex-Goyernor Clarke, an indebtedness of the State aggre- gating g, 763. GOO is to be liquidated by the payment Of only s160, 000. This, from appearances. seems Q very profitable settlement for the State of Arkansas, but in eonse- quenee of the prejudice existing among certain politicians against the Iron Mountain Railway, whose are involved, the indica- tions are that the whole settlement will end in a miserable fiasco. Gov. Dan Jones, in apparent defiance of the interests and credit of the State, and against the advice of Senators Jones and Berry and the entire Arkansas delegation in Congress, emphatieally says that he will veto the resolution passed by both branches of the Legislature approv- ing the settlement,
 Thus Arkansas indebtedness, from which there is no honorable escape, promises to go on indefinitely, ac- cumulatinq interest upon interest, to the prejudice of the people and the reputation and credit of the State.
