able him to rid himself
legally of his unfortunate
wife. This being accomp-
lished, he married the other
woman.
The new wife bore two
children, a boy and girl, and
when they had reached the
ages of IA and II their
father died, leaving them
handsomely provided for.
He was one Of the richest
men in the State. His first
SONNY man, my ero--who
had helped to dispose of his
own mother in the most in
famous, inhuman way, i'm.
mediately set about securing
for himself all his fathers
property. To do this it was
necessary to get the chill
dren out of the way. How
do you suppose the villain did
it? With ample money at
his command and backed by
the corporate influences of
the State, he prevailed upon
the Supreme Court of Ken,
lucky, through able counsel,
to declare unconstitutional
the law which he and his
fat her had passed to put
away his mother! Having
accomplished in this way
the illegitlmation of the two
children, and at the same
time rendered the marriage
of his father with his second
wife void, all the property
fell to him. He came to
New York, where his for
tune enabled him to splurge
in society. He became a
big man here.

The Truth AbOut(Uba.

When Mckinley becomes
President there can be no
doubt that public opinion
against Spanish atrocities in
Cuba will find expression,
If Mckinley himself is not
disposed to give it voice,
Congress will. And McKin.
ley will not insult and defy
Congress as Mr.. Cleveland
has.
1t is a disgrace to the
American name that, for
more than a year past, we
have tolerated the continu-
ance of inhuman and bar
barous crimes committed in
the name of war within
eighty miles of our shores.
The revelations of Richard
Harding Davis are not new.
This country long ago
made up it's mind that con-
ditions exist in Cuba which
it is our duty to terminate,
and the fact that President
Cleveland and Secretary
Olney have stood in the way
has not shaken that opinion
in the least. A knowledge
of the Spanish character and
history is il itself sufficient
to base such an opinion upon
and the consensus of news
paper reports fully proved
the case long before Richard
Harding Davis took the
field.
Mr.. Davis says if Cleve.
land were in Cuba he
"WOuld declare war Nv

stitution gives to Congress,
and not to the President, the
power to declare war, Gle

substitute.

Hon. Sam H. Davidson

Board of Trustees of the
State Charitable Institu-

pliment paid Mr., Davidson,
in view of the fact that this

The expenditure of a large
sum of money comes under

making such a selection, as
his experience as a member of

THE LEGISLATURE.

things proposed by the
members of the legislature
while up to date but little
has been done. We feel
discouraged and have but
little hope that it will
pass any very important
measures.
The Senate railroad
cOmmitte has failed to agree
on a Commission bill, and
there is but little hope for
legislation in that direction.
There is such a wide
difference of ideas as to
legislating for the improve
ment of our public high
ways, it is very doubtful if
we get any thing better in
the way of a road law than
what we all ready have.
The proposition to give
the state a uniform series
of text books which passed
the house, will, in all pro-
liability, never be reported
in the senate.
Hon. w. B. Ham of lizard
county introduced a bill to
reduce the fees of sheriffs
and clerks, but it met with
so many objections that it
cannot possibly be passed,
1t is a good bill and should
have passed if the present
legislature wants to legislate
in the interest of the COM
mon people. The present
fees for clerk and sheriff were
made when cotton was 20 cts
per pound, and now as every
thing else has had to sue
cumb to the crushing de-
mands of the gold standard,
these fees should also be cut
down.
Hon. II. l. Herrn, in a
personal letter, says that he
hopes to secure the passage
of his bills to consolidate
the elections, and to require
wholesale dealers of liquor
to pay a license. We really
hope so. If Mr.. Herrn car
succeed in getting these
two measures upon our stat
ute book, he will have done
a good work-a work thai
he might well be proud of

The Great Field for
Railroad Building.

We are reliably informed
that the stockholders of the
X. G. Fit. S. & M. Il. Il. Co.
have decided to build some
branch roads as feeders tC
their main line, and that
North Arkansas is especially
attracting their attention.
There is only one other belt
of country in the United
States as large as North
Arkansas through which
railroads do not run, and
that is the prairies of North
West Texas. Last sum-
mer the Globe-Democrat
sent a correspondent into
North Arkansas, in order
that the world might get
a faithful report of its re-
sources, as to mineral, tim
Der, a. riculture etc, The
correspondent was abso-
lutely astonished, after
realizing her unbounded
resources, at the negligence
of capitalists in neglecting
this part of the United
States. Here is a region
one-half as large as the
great state of Mass, with a
soil more fertile, and yields
a more generous return to
the hand of labor than any
section of the East, with
her hills literally filled with
building stone, marble, zinc,
lead, iron manganese and
other minerals, with her
vallies covered with mag
niicent hardwood forests,
with her clear and laughing
streams, leaping from cas-
cade to cascade, furnish
ing power sufficient to sup.
ply the entire machinery of
the Mississippi valley, with
more than one million acre;
of land, yet belonging t.
the United States, and I'm
claimed by her citizens, will
her sparkling springs gushing
from the hillsides, furnish
ing a nectar that the god'
might well crave, and with ;
climate as healthy as an,
under the sun.

North Arkansas and, be

her teeming soil, her Smi

wonder that this section ha
so long been neglected by
those who are seeking in
vestments. 1t was only a few
weeks ago that a well know
fnancier who made a tou
through this section, de
clared it the best country il
the United States through
which to build railroads,
We who have been raiset

slow to believe that such il
the case. Other section
