ARKANSAS CEMENT.
A Practical Test of Its Durability to
be Made at Little Rock.

A practical test of the durability
of Arkansas cement will be made
in this city by Col John G, Fletcher
who is a great believer in encour-
aging the development Of Arkan-
sas resources and patronizing home
industries, II is claimed for the
Arkansas cement, which comes
from White Cliffs, in Sewer county,
that II Is equal to Portland cement,
Col. Fletcher is having the Arkan-
sas droduct used in the concrete
sidewalk at the new building, south
east corner OF Nam and Second
streets. The Portland cement is
beng used for a part Of the walk
in order that the quality Of the
White Cliffs cement may be com
pared to that Of the much older
and more widely used article. COL
Fletcher stated Yesterday that he
was satisfied the Arkansas cement
would prove equally as good, II not
better than the Portland, -Arkan-
sas Gazette.
If Arkansas contained more such
men as Col Fletcher it would be
better of. We learn that the ce.
ment is all right, but that it has
been handicapped by those who use
cement, in not giving 1t trial, as
It cost too much to project with.
We have an agency here for the
cement, yet we have never heard
of asiugle barrel being tried here
on concrete work, 1t would pay
| the White Cliffs Cement company
to have payements put down in all
towns and cities using the product,
as an advertisement, in order to
get It introduced # they would
guarantee It to be as good as the
Portland cement, which they claim
! it is, and agree to refund the price
Of It's cost, should 1t prove other
wise, we are satisfied 1t will take,
Let us all buy this cement If we
have to use any and help out our
state resources and enterprises.
John g. Fletcher Is all right and
we are glad to claim him as a citi.

What Wilmington Needs,

Extravaganza and high taxation have
brought US as State to abiect poverty
in the midst of plenty. Now while the
constitutional convention Is in session 1t
ought to put clause in the new Consti-
tuition that all politics should be eliminate
ed in the city of Wilmington, and the
city run on business principles, II the
Legislature is convened only for the pur-
pose oil leRislating one set Of politicians
out and another set in
The farm hands in Kent and Sussex
working from 40 cents day to 65 cents o
day, Clerk in the Senate gets over fifteen
dollars per day while the poor laborer gets
10 to % cents per day. Is that EquityP Is
That what yor term proper government
Ii IL ls l think some OF the people will soon
become ir ID of II aud either change it In
name or IN form. The constitutional Con-
ven ion in my opinion has not usurped
their powers in making stringent laws.
The only thing see they have done Is
give tho Legislature G6 per cent more sal
cry per diem than they have been getting
since the formation of the Government, $B
aud dollars per day and to make Il up
tax the poor people who earn 40 to AZ cents
per day which in my opinion is cruel In
the extreme.
cannot understand why An official in
the city, state or general goyernment gets
SO much more salary than he gets from a
private firm or while working for him
self. When employed by apy of The State
Corporations their hours OF work are some.
times not 20 per cent. of what they have
had to work for n private firm. At the
same time they are more JEan doubly
compensated Who pays for this liberal
ityS The tax payer who earns As cents to
81 per day. 1t must be conceded by all
that the working people comprise at least
SO per cent of all the people In tbi,
country, therefore, their toiing wages
must be taxed to keep up 20 per cent. Of
idle tyrants. while the &c per cent cannot
get the necessaries of life to live on. There
by we can say with God there is mercy but
with man there is none. There never was
n time in this country's history other than
the present, when the country demanded
good wise laws made in the economical
interest of the people. lgEIt,
" CONCLUSION, there oughtfo befa syss
tenn OF doing business, for without system
there is nothing but confusion. Now, in
order to carry these ideas into law let
there be mass meeting held at once,
either in the Red Mems Hall on Shipley
street Or the Beard of Trado on Market
street and send down to the Legislature a
petition setting forth their wants, and I
have no doubt it will be granted. The
laws we are living under are commended
by the city council to the Legislature,
which body doesn't seem to be up to the
standard of Glasgow, Scotland, where
they get one million dollars a year for the
privilege of using the sewage to make
dry poudretta or fertilizer for the farmers
in place of running 1T into the river
Clyde and filling it up to clean out at

Bid AIaeFariane Farewell,

The Presbyterian Alliance in West
Church last night rendered farewell re
ception to Rev. VIM. MacFarane, the re.
firing pastor of East Lake Church. A
large number of the friends of Mr.. Mac
Farlane met him. Rev Lafayette Marks
presided and remarks were made by Revs.
W. f. Lewis, I. A. McCurdy and A. N.
Keigwin. Mr.. McCurdy spoke of the
need of young ministers and said it was
not them who grow heretical, but the old
ones.
Mr.. MacFarlane thanked his friends and
congregation for their hearty cooperation
with him In the work. He also paid a
tribute to the New Castle Presbytery in
saying that it was most learned body,
and he hoped that his labors under the
new body would be 40 successful as they
were under the old.
The Rev. A. N. Keigwin thought Ii
would be proper for all present to voice
their sympathy to the pastor and session
OF Central Church for the loss of one OF its
able members, Judge l. e Wales. 1t was
done and DR.. McCurdy will express the
sentiments to the bereaved family.
Refreshments were served after which

THE IMMIGRATION BILL.
House Agrees to the Final Conference
Report on the Measure.

Washington, Feb. 1O.-The house
yesterday agreed to the final confer
ence report on the immigration bill by
an overwhelming majority( 2i7 to 33),
and passed two more pension bills over
the presidents veto. The notifications
of the immigration contained in the
conference report, by which an intend
ing immigrant was required to be able
to read and write "the English or an
other language" and which permitted
the illiterate wife and minor children
to accompany an eligible immigrant,
removed the main opposition to the
bill, but Messrs. Mahany of New York,
Mcguire of California and Kejfer Of
Minnesota opposed the whole theory
of the bill on general principles. while
Messrs. Bartholdt of Missouri and Nc
Alpin of Massachusetts both spoke in
favor of the bill as modified. The bene-
ficiaries of the pension bills passed
over the veto were both of the class
known as "remarried widows" Mr..
Cleveland has dlsapproved a number
Of these bills. but he has also allowed
several to become laws without his
signature. A resolution was adopted
appointing John Marshall Brown, of
Maine, to the vacancy on the board of
managers Of the National Home for
Disabled Volunteers, made vacant by
the death of George l.. Beal
The open session of the senate was
wholly perfunctory and after transact
ing some routine business the doors
were closed and an executive session
continued throughout the day.
