ARKANSAS FURNISHES THE OARS.
Factory That Turns out Orders for
Every Navy In the World.


From the Louisville Post.
Devall Bluffs, a little town in the lumber
region of Arkansas, furnishes oars for the
navies of the world. There are other oars
than those made in Arkansas in use on
men-of-war, but Devall Bluffs people have
the honor of having made the oars which
proper the small boats in the French and
Italian navies az present. and at various
times during the history of "the Bluffs
the oar factory there has furnished oars
for the other big navies of the world.
An Arkansas statesman, commenting on
the resources of his state, said:
IF you happen TO be something of
globe trotter take heed when next you see
a boat lowered from a French or Italian
man-of-war, and as the crystal drops
shower from the oar blades you may note
beneath the fine, firm grain of Arkansas
or Missouri ash. Charles Wells the Devall
Bluffs manufacturer. confesses his inabil-
ity to remember how far back In the past
the industry dates, but to his grandsire
belongs the honor of first shaping oars by
machinery, and the Wells oars were recog-
nized as the standard of excellence long
before the need of a closer timber supply
brought about the establishments of works
in America. AT one time or another every
navy in the world had had oars from De-
ValE Bluffs.
THE oar factory regularly employees
about fifty hands, and, having it's own
electric lighting plant, can work night
shifts when crowded with orders. Its ordi-
nary output is some go pieces in a ten
hour run, including oars of all lengths, from
six and half to twenty-four feet. A good
share of its finished product is placed
through its English branches in London,
Liverpool and Glasgow, but vast demand
is supplied from the factory direct

furnish a good market ana the Wells
brand of oars is not unknown on the At
Eantic seabOard of the states and provinces.
Foreign countries are large purchasers,
large shipments go regularly to New Eng
land, while for years past the French and
Italian navies have annually placed large
orders with the factory, the requirements
of the two countries being practically the
same with regard to specifications and
models. Frances order for the present
year aggregates $500 pieces, or about the
same as in years past"

ARE MOST PEOPLE HONESTY
a Restaurant Cashier Says That
Such Is the Case.

such Is the Case.
washington Letter in Chicago Record.
Sociologists will find an interesting study
in one of the downtown restaurants of
New York, where every customer eats
what he wants and renders his own bill.
There are lot of walters around, clear
ing away the soled dishes and bringing
fresh ones, renewing the supplies of food
that are exposed upon the counters and
attending to the tea and coffee tanks, but
the patrons are expected to serve them
selves. Platters of hot and cold meats,
salads, sandwiches, pies and cakes, GRO
quotes and all that sort of thing are ar
ranged on buffet shelves, with little card
standards giving the price of each arti-
Gle. A customer takes a plate, knife and
fork and napkin, and then goes around
and picks out what he wants. After he
has finished eating he informs lad at
a cash register what he has eaten. The
latter performs an addition in mental
arithmetic, turns his crank and hands out
a card with figures upon it, which the
customer takes to the cashier and pays
for his luncheon, AS / threw down

cashier: How do you know that's rightF'

beats but the percentage is so small that

way or another. We catch a dead beat

WILL NOT WORK.

The defeated gang of political free
hooters who have been running things
to suit their own sweet will in this
State, seem determined not to let go
as long as dishonest partisan advant
age can be gained by holding on and
maintaining their ridiculous claims.
Their main object now in raising a
stop thief" cry is the hope it may
reach the ears of partisan United
States Senate majority and prevent the
seating of the Democrat whom the
next Legislature will duly elect to sue
coed Mr.. Faulkner.
We have no notion, however, that
sufficient number of Republican United
States Senators can be found to engage
in such a bare-faced scheme of rob-
berry. or, rather, the game is not big
enough to be worth the everlasting
odium such a criminal proceeding
would fasten upon the Republican
party of this country.
This scheme of the defeated trick
sters will not work, because they have
not the shadow of evidence of any kind
of irregularity on the part of Demo-
Gratis anywhere in this State. Every
bit of crookedness and irregularity
that has been revealed or specifically
charged or even suspected has been in
instances where the election machln-
ery has been under the control of Re-
publicans.
The threat to carry the case to the
United States Senate is mere childish
bluff to cover the retreat of the defeat
ed ringsters. They know the United
States Senate, in the full glare of
countrywide publicity, dare not, if it
wanted to, engage in the kind of dirty
work these West Virginia manipula-
tors think nothing of doing.
The Democrats have elected clear
majority on joint ballot to the Legisla-
ture and the official count shows it.
They will elect the successor of Sena-
tor Faulkner and he will take his seat.
The will of the people MUST AND
WILL STAND.

HOW II HAPPENS.

The INSCRIPTIONS partisan organ of
Collector White, the Parkersburg
Journal, does not hesitate to libel the
county court of Taylor county, al
though it is not Democratic, by char
acterizing the official count by which
Dent, Democrat, was found to be eject
ed to the Legislature by a slight ma
iority over his Republican opponent,
who was at first reported elected, as
"a clear case of steal
This blathering, irresponsible organ,
which is so free with its charges OF
theft against a non-partisan court,
bases these charges on nothing, or next
to nothing. 1t says:
1t is surprisingly singular that no no.
ticeable change was found in the vote
for McGraw and Dayton. All the changes
were on the delegate and commissioner.
The result shows clear case of steal
on the part of the Democrats. which is
too self-evident to be denied with reason
By this it will be seen that our con-
temporary is guilty either of shameful
ignorance or of practicing shameless
deceit.
Every election official will sec at a
glance how these errors occurred, as
they have occurred in numerous in
stances all over the State, although in
most cases where the majority is large
the changes by the official count are
not enough to affect the result. In a
word, the errors in the first count oc-
cur through hurriedly counting but the
heads of the tickets. Later when the
official count is made and the ballots
are carefully and accurately gone over
the scratched names, before passed
unnoticed in the hurry of getting at the
general result, are taken account of,
and frequently the changes thus
made are sufficient to change the re-
suit on minor Offices, although, as in
the case in Taylor county, the vote on
the heads of the tickets may remain
practically the same as in the first
count.
Collector Whites INSCRIPTIONS organ
doubtless is as we'll aware of these
simple facts as any one, and scatters
about its charges of fraud so lavishly
in the hope of deceiving the people
who, it thinks, are not so we'll posted
on these matters.

The Cuban delegation will endeavor
to borrow money from Uncle Sam to
pay Cuban troops. This failing, the
Cuban leaders will endeavor to raise a
loan for the purpose on their personal
security. We fear there is but one
method by which the Cuban troops
will ever see their pay, namely, by
turning Cuba and its army over to
Uncle Sam. In that event the latter
will see that matters are Strengthened
out and that every fellow gets his just
dues.

On the arrival of Of the Potomac army at Centerville, ths brigade t. which the One Hundred and Twenty sixth regiment belonged was assigned to tha Third divisicn Of the Seccnd army corps, commanded by General Hancock. Captain Scott, now Chap lain Winfield Scott of this county, was relieved as provost marshal and his company with his regimant went into the Second corps. Ths captain $ wcund was net healed. He was quite lame, and had to march If he -Went. The surgeons wanted Him to go to the rear, declaring him unable to march The cap cartsii-usa tSin refused to report to the surgeons. but reported for duty, de- claring that he would be in the ccm- ing fight if there was enough left of him to get there.
 The first day and night ha and his company were detailed to guard the wagon train and he fought Mosby all night, and stood him off and brought in his train intact. The heavy marching irri ated his wound, but he kept it open by probing it from two to three inches each day. Pieces of bone and the patch of his drawers which was driven into his leg when shot worked out on the march. He never rode in an ambulance duirng the whole Gettys- burg campaign, and was never behind a minute during the forced march of thir-y-fo-ur miles made thl 18th of June by his regiment-the captain cn hand as usual at night.

FRENCH MILITARY PLOT.
The Overthrow of inc Government

Paris. Oct. 14.-It is announced here this morning that a military plot against the government has bsen dis covered. The Rappel, Aurore and Pe-it Journal and Republicque Fran caise publish almost identical stories on the subject It appears that the plot was disco vered by general hold ing an important position. The plot iers were to have taken action on Sat urday during the absence Of the min ister Of war, General ChanCins. It fur ther appears that when the government was warned Of the plot the ministers were net surprised, having already ob- tained information regarding the con- spiracy
 The Libsr,e asserts that the military men alleged tcl have been concerned in the conspiracy are Generals Bcisdeffre and PelleiuX. Attempts, it is added, were also made to compromise General Zurlinden,. the military governor Of Paris, who for short time was min ister. of war, but it appears the prss- ent minister O. war, General CharCine, refused tc continuance it. According tc the Jour the rumor of the plan arose from a forged letter purporting tC have b5en sent by General Bcisdshre tc' General Zurlinden containing the words, Let us be ready for Saturday"
