 The board of trustees of the state University met at Little Rock last week, and from a report of the proceedings we take the following: "The board authorized Messrs. J. B Me Donough and c. c. Hamby to take such action as may be necessary towards the collect ing from Washington county interest on the A. I. U. bonds. In 1872 the state submitted to the various counties the matter of bidding for the state univer- sity, tue county making the largest and best bid to get the prize. Washington county bid S100,0CO and the town of Fay etteville S3O,O00 payable in thirty years and bearing inter est at the rate of s per cent per annum. Washington county kept the interest paid up and meanwhile the county pur chased state bonds to the amount of S95 ,OOO. At the last session of the legislature an act was passed allowing Wash ington county to exchange the state bonds for the bonds she had executed to the university. The A. 1. U. bonds given by the county have five years vet to run and Washington county would save $40, ,OOO, or SS, 900 per annum, in interest If the exchange were made now But the Federal government has an interestin the univer sity, having donated Sl0O,O00 in land scrip, out of which the building 2 was constructed Some time ago Judge Williams of the Federal conrt, issued a perpetual injunction restrain ing the exchange of sIate bonds for Washington county 4 l.

 First Months War Tax Collections.
 WASHINGTON Jnly 3f-To- day closed the first month un- der the new revenue law and afforded all indication of the results of the law. The total internal revenue collections during July were S26,170,697; including collections under the old internal revenue as well as the new law. The internal rev enue collections of July, 1897, under the Wilson law, were Sl9, ,767, 31, but they fell in August to $11.193,194 under the Dingley law. It IS be lieved at the Treasury that about half of the internal reve nue receipts are due to the new measure If thls is the case the detici: for the month, which stands at $29,767,S ,S91, would have been nearly $4 3,000,0O0 but for the new law.
 It is the intention it the Treasury 10 classify all the war expenditures Tn course of time, but this cannot be done in detail at present. The ex penditures for July were S73,- LOGO, which is about S43, 0OO,00 in excess of the normal. Of this amount $34,114,OOO has gone 10 the War Department and S,515,00O to the navy. I'he expenditures for the War Department in July, 1897, were s10,736.75S and for the navys2,1l o,So9 The increase this year, therefore, appears to be only about $29,000,00O, but there is some increase result ing from the war under the head of civil and miscellaneous expenditures which stand at 2,0G0,00O for the past month. An item which swelled the or dinary expenditures was the quarterly interest payments or the old funr per cent loan. amounting 10 S5,600,O00.
 The amount received for the bcnds stands at about S100,- 900, coo, nearl'- T of which has come from the -HA,u5 Tor $500 and less The payments fol these bonds are nearly com pltted, but very few payments have been made under he al lotment to the larger subscri- bers. The final allotment can not vet be made for several days yet on the larger amounts and d revision of the figures leads to the belief that the largest subscriptions which will contain any bonds will be several hundred dollars below the maximum of S4 AGO prevr- OuSly announced.

Party Alignment.

The Progrcssists of the Democrat
ic party adopted Il new policy at Chi
cagO, and the moss backs and con-
seryatives, because it was new would
have none of it, and went up Mnea-
apolls and had comfortable tea
drinking together in the orthodox
conservative fashion. 1t has prob
ably not dawned on these old fogies
yet that IF we had not adopted the
free silver platform the Republicans
would, and that they with this pop
ular doctrlne-and the gold of the
manufacturers would have carried
the country with Il sweep.
They are all, every mothers son of
them, on record for free silver within
Il period of fifteen years. Many of
them believe i'll it yet, but since it
bears the Democratic trademark they
must condemn it. Politics like his
tory is largely the result of accident,
and the most trivial circumstance
has of time changed the deslinies
and histories of countries.
In view of this recognized trans
