MONROE COUNTYlt NORMAL

Prem an educational point of view, Arkansas ranks high in the category of States. That the efficiency of our educational sys- tenn may not be diminished but increased, and that popular edu- cation may keep pace with other developments which without it will prove detrimental to our highest interests, the State main talns system of County Normals whereby each teacher may re- ceive gratuitous instruction in those branches of knowledge taught in our public schools with special stress npon the method of teaching them The wisdom of these provisions stands above question.
 The normal for Monroe county
  begins May 30 at Holly Grove and the hope is indulged that every teacher will be with us from the start filled with that zeal and enthusiasm that compels success. Let us organize and train the forces that are to march against our deadliest foe, ignorance. Let us mingle together and profit by an exchange of ideas and receive encouragement.
 when we cali to mind the fact that the teacher exerts more in- fuence upon the world than any other professional man that forces |al a sotion by him that ac- ccllerate as the ages pass away and effect thousands for veal ol for woe, that the teacher requires more ability and preparation than any other professional man, then It is and not until then do we realize the responsibilities resting upon us.
 The cooperation of each teacher is earnestly solicited both for the success of the Normal and lnpbuildlng and strengthening of the educational interests of our Site.
 Teachers should bring with hem to the Normal such text looks and pedagogies as will be lAeded in the work. By the present cooperation and labor of all Va feel that good will be ac- complished and the teachers made more appi,ciative of their oppor- tunities and possibilities. Yours for the cause of eduea- tion, GEO. R. HOPKINS.

Broader Markets.

The Nashville American quotes D. A. Thompkins, a successful cotton manufacturer of Charlotte, N. C., as having said ln an inter- view last week:
 We now manufacture in the United States about one-quarter of the cotton crop. The factories of the United States ought to be able to compete in the markets of the world with those of England and the European continent. Except ing to ilimited extent in China, we enter very little into competi- tion with the enormous foreign trade, the control of which Is now controlled by foreign manufacture CTS less favorably situated than s.-5sc of the United States.
 If all the factories of New England would move south the need for extended markets would still remain. Such movement would not increase the number.of purchasers of American. made goods. Controversy about the advantages and disadvantages of New England and the south con tribute nothing towards the bet

terment of irade TOT the north or south.
 "One advantage to come of the broader policy which thewar with Spain ts likely to inaugurate will be extended trade. The south is especially interested in opening the markets of Asia to a more lib eral use of the cheap cotton goods which i've are better able to sup ply than any other part of the world. There are about 560, ,000,- 900 people in the Asiatic coun- tries contiguous to the Pacific ocean, and cotton cloth of the coarse variety is suited to the wearing apparel they use. As MT. Thompkins points out, except to limited extent in China, our manufacturers do not enter this market.
 "That state of affairs should be improved, and possibly American dominaney in the Philippine Islands, and an understanding with Great Britain that Asiatic markets are not to be fnOnOpolized by any European nation, may operate to increase our exports to that part of the globe.
 "There should be no destructive competition in different sections of the country when we can have the whole world for market. The broader policy which is to .come of the war spirit will mean more than military prestige. It will mean the extension of commerce, new markets for manufactured goods, the building of more fac tories and the increase of national wealth."

Let these be the results of the war with Spain.

K city the size of Brinkley a good system of water works is badly needed. It would be a great thing for the health of the town, as scientists have proven that one of the most prevalent forms of distributing the germs of disease is through dust. A system water works would furnish cheap way out of the difficulty of sprinkling the streets and thus ayoid this danger of spreading the germs of disease and would also make sewer age system practical. The difference in insurance rates would pay the lurger part of the cost, and We are sure that al impartial study of the water works question, would result in speedy action by the city council in regard to ths matter. We hope the question will soon be settled aud Brinkley have [ first class system Of water Works.

WE believe the once impossi- ble has been accomplished. We believe the bloody shirt has at last been buried. The old cry of rebel and traitor which was so success fully used to hold the republicans of the North in line, will, we hope, be heard no more. The old sectional lines have been erased and the country is again reunited by the magic word, To Arms The pessimists who have been lament ing the decay of patriotism have wasted their lamentations and the South IS vindicated.
