The Hon. Samuel Vain.

The Hon. Samuel Vain.
wright, who once represent
ed Sharp county in the house,
says the Arkansas Democrat,
was one of the very few Of
fce-holders whose desire to
hold cffice was easily satiat'
ed. One term in the leyis-
lature was enough for him,
and when he returned home
he informed his friends that
he had enough. Very few
members have followed his
example. Most of them have
sought a reelection or to be
elected to some other office
on the strength of a legislat,
i've record. The desire tc
make a record has consumed
lots of valuable time and hun
dreds of thousands of dollars
belonging to the state. Mr.
Wainwright saw the vanity
of hoping to attain fame ant
distinction through service ii
the Legislature, and volun
tarily retired.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

LIE MO wv LNlANL'
In this day when a strict
adherence to the Monroe
Doctrine" is demanded by
some in dealing with terri.
torial questions growing out
of the war with Spain, it is
we'll to know what the doc
trine is and what occasioned
it. In 1923 in his annual
message to congress, Presi-
dent Monroe gave utterance
to the following sentences:
1--WE owe it to candor and
to the amicable relations ex-
listing between the United
States and the allied powers,
to declare that we should con-
slider any attempt on their
part to extend their system
to any portion of this hemis-
phere ds dangerous to our
peace and safety. With the
existing colonies or depend
encies of any European pow.
err we have not interfered,
and shall not interfere; but
with the governments which
have declared their indepenu-
ence and maintained it, and
whose independence we haye,
or great consideration and
just principles. acknowledge
ed, we could not view an in
terposition for expressing
them, or controlling in any
other manner their destiny,
by any European power, in
any other light than as a
manifestation of an unfr:end-
ly disposition toward the
United States. Also "the
American continents should
no longer be subjects for any
new European colonial settle.

These expressions embody
what is known as the Monroe
Doctrine.

occasioned by the formation
in Europe a few years prev.

the "holy alliance" which

Here is what the Vldette
says;
"since October Goth the editor
spent a week in the atmosphere
of his cid home at Evening Shade,
Sharp county-"The Gem of the
Hills, "-pine-clad hills, where
picturesqueness is the daily pro-
gram and gurgling springs OF
pure water burst from beneath
the rocks; the Autumn tints be-
spangle the wales and the trout
darts to the shadows in creek and
brook, where the red apple drops
in the orchard, and the mellow
wild grape covers the hawthorn
and the ripe nuts scatter in the
roads. Poetic truth without
rhyme. Yes, we passed about a
week at our home-mother's
home, around the fireside with
mother in her snug corner, though
old and feeble, yet clear in mind
and beautiful in religious fervor
and hopes of a happy entrance
into the Holy City. Three years
have passed by since looking
upon the faces of kindred and
friends, and the many old scenes
of more youthful days, near the
dear old village; and it was amid
feelings mixed with pleasure and
Sadness that our eyes to- TX in the
surroundings and noted the few
changes wrought during our briel
absence. Among the improve
ments going on the most promi-
nent is the new Methodist church
now nearing completion. 1t is OF
late architectural design, amply
large, and is built upon an undu-
lation which gives it prominence
and an airy eminence in summer.
The Evening Shade Roller Mills,
j. R. Metcalf, proprietor, with a
capacity of thirty-five barrels
of prime flour per day, was a
venture four years ago, but is
now known to be a most happy
success. The mill runs night and
day and is generally two weeks
behind with custom grist. Mr..
Metcalf supplies the country for
miles around, his trade extend
ing into adjoining counties. The
flour put up at this mill is sec
ond to none on the market. But

Yesterday, in the United States court,
Judge Jackson on the bench, Colonel
Arnett appeared In behalf OF William
Eaton, the Chicago man who was con-
victed In the local criminal court OF
burning property with intent to defraud
certain insurance companies, but was
unable to effect the release of his client,
who has been confined In the Ohio
county jail since his conviction several
months ago. Judge Jackson declined TO
interfere with the state court. Colonel
Arnett desired to take the matter up to
the United States court Of appeals,
Judge Goff. and notice of this Intention
was served. The result Is said to be a
severe disappointment to Eaton, who
anticipated his release would follow the
bringing Of the matter to an issue before
Judge Jackson.

The Terminals fence extends over
one rail-, for about five feet each way,
