Rector HIS Complains.


Rev. G. Heathcote Hills, of West Ches.
ter, Pa, seems determined to keep before
the public in some sensational manner.
For long time his family troubles were
aired before the public, but they became
a mine day wonder" and for a time
nothing has been heard of the divorce
suit or the principals.
Last week, however, Mr. Hills sprung a
sensation by preaching at his congrega-
ton. He took as his text "Owest Thou
the Lord ?" and from this he scored the
members of the congregation for the half
hearted manner in which they have CO.
operated with him during the year past,
and read financial statement showing
that there was due him in salary $3.50.
He deplored the fact that in church
with membership of over 500 only sew.
enteen full pews should be rented, with
perhaps as many half pews, and told OF
the poor collections lately taken up, he
having counted 124 coppers on the plate
on the previous Sabbath.

MUNICIPAL wATERwoRKs.

The Kansas state labor commits
sioner has rendered a good service
in presenting statistics of com
parative cost to customers OF
water furnished by municipal and
by private plants. The figures
given are based upon reports
made by thirty-two private and
twenty six municipal plants. They
show the service furnished by the
municipal plants to be much the
cheaper. Following are the COM
parativc rates:
Average yearly rate for FIVE
room house at private plant, $6. is;
public plant, IS; average for ten
room house, private plant, GAG;
public plant, SIS; average rate per
lot for sprinkling. private plant,
7.30; public, S4.31; rate per front
foot, private, II cents; public, 10
cents; meter rate per 1000 gal
Ions, private plant, rs cents, pub
lie, 81 cents.
Another advantage in favor of
the municipal plant is that the
water used by the city for fire
purposes is furnished free. and
yet despite that fact, the rates to
customers are less than those of
the privately owned companies.

AN EXPRESS COMMISSION.
The Eureka SPRINGS Flashliohi


discussing the needs of railway
commission, says:
Talk about railroad commission!
We need an express commission as
badly. IL not worse. Their rates are
ryhorbitnHt but what's to be done
about It? They have the people at
their mercy and always will have
until the government sees fit to pre-
scribe limits for them in their rites.
The proper way for the govern
mcnt to prescribe satisfactory
limits is to establish system Of
express in connection with the pos
tai department.
When John Wanamakcr was
postmaster general he said that
there was only four reasons why
the government should not extend
It's postal parcel system for the
better accommodation of the pco
pie and these were 1.-THE four great
express companies"
OF course, it is understood BY
his that IT is the opposition of the
express monopolics that ''havc
the people at their mercy" and
the opposition of the great West
.crn Union Telegraph Go. which
prevents the government from
either prescribing limits or from
doing express and teIegraphic SER
vice ''by the people and for the
peoplc."

NO MYSTERY AT ALL.

Just why the department does not
send at least one regiment of soldiers
to Eureka Springs is something of IA
mystery, Eureka Springs Flashlight.
1t should not be. A town on a
railroad that charges five cents a
mile for passenger fare should not
expect u regiment of soldiers sent
to it even if it would put dollars
in Powell Clayton's strong box.
They could be sent to Mcna or
Mt. Mena for less money and find
Il better location.

EVIDENCE or GROWTH.

The enumeration of school chill
drcn as taken last week conveys
evidence of a healthy. steady
growth during the last year that
is quite satisfactory. The enumer-
alton one year ago showed COS
children of school age while the
one just taken shows $50 or an in
crease of 22S during the last year.
We only wish that our school
funds would grow as rapidly as
our school population SO We could
have better school houses and a
longer term of school.

We have received No. 1, Vol. 1,
OF the Jasper MOO News, pub
lished by our young friend and
at one time employee, Lynn Mon
roe. 1t is an eight page paper
and its general makeup and APP
pearance is credit both to the
editor and the town where pub
lisaed. In his announcement the
young editor says: Our politics
will be the greatest good to the
greatest number and desire to
be found always on the side of
the right" II he will stick to
that be will always retain his own
self respect and the respect of his

fl himself by advocating princi-
pies he believes to be false or not
for the public good, and to lose
his own self respect and the re-
spect of the public by seeking the
election of men for Office whose
character and reputation arc a
stencil in the nostrils of all hon

party demands it. If our young

A gang of nine men was brought in from

charge of drunkenness and vagrancy. Pa
troman Woodland ran across the gang near
the Malleable iron works, where the men,
bers were drinking beer from a keg and
phoned to the city for assistance, and the
gang was rounded up. Superintendent
Quigley is aware that the professional tramp
is making himself conspicuous in the city
Just at this time Friday night gang was
locked up for annoying people on Illinois
street near the Bates House.
Superintendent Quigley recalls period of
two weeks about twelve years ago when the
city police, under the instruction of the
mayor made war on the tramp At the time
the city was infested with this species of
mendicant, and il was decided to try heroic
remedy. One morning a dozen or more
of these Migrants were taken outside OF the
city near Eagle creek, and after being
treated to a dose of switches" were
started westward. This manner of treat
ment was kept up for nearly two weeks,
until the city was rid of its tramps.
