You see they import the scedlcss navel

BEAUTIFUL SCENES.

The people of this section never witnessed more pretty or phenome- nal scenes than those of Saturday night and this TMondayl morning.
 Although the clements of natsre were severe and the sleet fell from early Saturday afternoon until at noon Sunday, completely mantllng the earth with an icy covering, the severity of the climate was largely compensated for by the beauty and novelty of the scene.
 The earth, the trees, flowers and shrubbery presented q grand and brilliant spectacle. Each was mantled OCT with ice as if encases! ia a glass covering 1t was novel and extraordinary sight for this Southland of ours, and T precedent for this extraordinary phenomenon is not within the memory of the old est inhabitant.
 Under the sway of their ley burd- ems, gigantic shade trees, telegraph and telephone poles and wires. twering sveamores, busby water oaks, majestic magnolias. ancient eedars and frail flowers gave way and were borne to the earth, and the damage, especially to shade-trees, Is almost irrepairable. The care and work of years went down under natures clements. But the sight of tall trees and beautiful foliage drap- cd with ice and fringed with lcieles made a brilliant spectacle that is rarely witnessed by inhabitants Of this section, and it was one that will long be remembered
 Another novel spectacle was red and yellow roses In full bloom eovsr- with ice nj least m inch In thickness, presenting the appearance of roses encased In glass tubes or coverings.
 But 1t was youehsafed those whe were up late Saturday night and and witnessed thespectacie under the glare of electric ligt to see one of the brettIest winter scenes imagia- able. 1t is doubtful If frozen Niagra under the full glare ef winter sunlight ever presented q moro brilliant sight than the frozen trees and shrubbsry of Pine Bluff ns they reflected the soft and mellow light last Saturday night.

people whose highest ambition is to array himself in a mass of feathers and greasy paint and break over the reservation in search of the scalp of his unfortunate foe.
 The government, with that phil- anthropy which 1t has ever shown to the weak, has undertaken to place l it's protecting arm around the poor outcast and draw him in to the bosom of an independent father. This is all well enough perhaps. It might be well enough to preserve specimens of these, in many re- spects, truly grand aboriginees, but l if this is to be done, if they are to be the objects of the nations bounty and loving care, why not tsend them tU the barren rock piles of the East and care for them along with the other benelciaries of the nations protective system; or put them on the pension list as being as worthy to receive support in this way, as many who are maintained i in idleness, and often worse, at the nations cost?
 Something should be done with the Indians, besides settling them
 upon as fine farming lands as exists
 in the nation. I am not making war
 on the Indian, for l believe relig-
 iously in that grand old precept,
 "Whatsoever ye would that men
 should do to you, do ye even so tc
 them, and l would not like to have
 him make war on me.
 This territory added to Arkansas
 would make a grand State. As we
 do not now concede superiority to any other State, with this addition we would claim to be superior to all others. It would not make State
 too large. It would be difficult to , get it too large, for as it would in
 crease in size and grandeur the peo pie would grow in intelligence and patriotic love of their grand homt State.
 : But we need not quake through : fear that the plan herein outlined l will be adopted, and a horde of yell : ing, scalping savages be precipitat l ed upon us. It is merely a timely
 suggestion. There are many req I sons why this course will not b f pursued by the present administra n ton, but the principal one and al d sufficient one is that the electora t vote of Arkansas would still go t 2 the Democratic party.

DESTRUCTIVE SLEET,
mp1FeRAPHIC COMMUNICATION CUT OFF - ELECTRIC
 LIGHTS OUT.
Nearly Every Business House and Home Drmaged by Leakage Trees and shrubbery
 Demolished.

plne Bluff was visited Saturday and Sunday by one of the most de atructive sleet storms seen for sever al years. The sleet commenced fall ine Saturday morning and continu- ell till Sunday at noon. The trees were weighted to the earth with their heavy burden. The ground is covered with their broken branches. The shade trees and shrubbery were grown by years ofcare and attention and the damage to them cannot be estimated.
 The telephone, telegraph. electric light and railroad companies are possibly the greatest sufferers. Many of their poles are broken and wires down. At Olive street on Third avenue a pole belonging to the new telephone company has snapped into threee pieces. Its wires fell across telegraph wires and cut off tele- graphic communication. The freight tfains ht4c h rn tied up in yards at way stations and out in the woods, because orders could not be sent 10 them. The Western Union Company will have 15 men out on their lines. The Postal Telegraph Company will have a force out, too.
 The Light x Water Company have eight lines and all but two have been rendered useless. Services could not be held at the churches last night Most of the lights went out at 9 o'ciock Sunday night; all were put out at midnight. Several live wires were on the ground. but all were watched
 Many of the telephone wires are crossed and only poor service is giy- en. The damage to wires cannot be estimated, as the storm was general and wires are down all along the railroads.
 Nearly every business house in town suffered loss or inconvenience from leaking roofs. Men were called out at o'clock Sunday morning to get goods from under streams.
 Kastor & Bluthenthal's pretty show window was struck by the water. Some of their other goods were damaged.
 The goods on the second and third floors Of the Red Store were damag- ed.
 mr. A. Blum had his millinery and bandkerchiefs damaged to the ex- tent of $500.
 Golden Eagle Go. was a heavy sui aerer, haylng lost several hundred dollars.
 S. A. Rosenberg's periodicals and books were damaged considerably.
 Gillespie X Bro. Co. lost some gro eeries and clothing.
 I. Dreyfus lost two awnings.

ANNEXATION OF THE INDIAN
TERRITORY

- A' A
 IL has been suggested by some of the newspapers of the State that it would be an appropriate act to merge the Indian Territory, Indians and all, into the great State of Ar kansas and give poor To the benefit of a higher type of civilization than he caa ever hope to build himself. This plan is not without it's advan- tages, It may, however, be con eededt without argument, that the acquisition of the Territory with it's productive area, without the war paint aud wampun accompaniment, would be more agreeable. It would be a grave error forsus to undertake to reclaim too much ignorance and superstition at one time, and our first attention should be given to that which is now at our gates.
 have heard it contended that our State is large enough aud we should be content with it as it is This strikes me as weak argument. It could with equal propriety be con- tended that we had enough railroads, factories, oil mills, and business en- terprises in general. Conquest is the law and the nature of man. It is as impossible to confine the scope of Anglo-saxon genius or to limit it's powers as it is to chain an elephant with a shoe string. The restless energy of man is constantly seeking new fields. Why not open this also to his enterprise and Vim2 There is no legitimate or sensible reason. It would be to the interest of the Indian. If this race is ever to be elevated to that estate which will make the highest type of American citizen it must be by protecting them from themselves. If they are ever to be shaken from the cold phlegmatic. unambitious form of to day and made to assume a new shape, it must either be by that am algamation which will gradually de stroy the race; or by forcing upor them the necessity of labor, or ere ating in them an ambition to riva the pale face.
 Much has been said in song ant story about the former granduer o this race. We have been told il
 terms of extreme pathos of the age' Indian who ascends some distan
 elevation and, with tears trieklini from his aged, be-dimmed eye, cast lingering glance at his once happ
 hunting grounds which have no' closed to him forever In the poet fancy we have seen the Indian love woo his dusky mate beside the cry
 
 tai stream, and have wept becaus ! it's ripping waters no longer rehet their image. The Indian and u buffalo, rowing insignia of a wil' l uncultured state, have each in the ? turn given place to the encroact
 ments of civilization, wrought t i. the relentless, all-conquerlng han of the white man. Where erstwhi the warwhoop resounded and u
 sounds of the chase were heard, u S hand of civilization has sent Il ! ! church spire heaven ward.
 And yet it is all as it should | 1.-the survival of the fittest. II busy hum of machinery, the majest of mighty cities, the shrill shriek
 the iron horse, palatial steamer plying the mighty waters, all b token a high civilization whit could never come to any country any State populated by class .
