THE size of the modern newspa- per, so often the subject of discus sion, is aptly answered by the reply ot Abraham Lincoln to query as to the right length of a mans legs. Lincolns reply was that they should be just long enough to reach from the body to the ground. The news paper should be just large enough for the news and advertisements and such features as the editor be- lieyes will please his readers. Ap- plication of this rule would work havoc with the size of the volumin- ous newspaper.-N -NewSpaperdom.

c. M. Philpot for Sheriff.

By reference to the proper column the announcement of Mr. c. M. Philpot will be found as Q candidate for Sheriff and Collector of Jefferson county, subject to the action of the Democratic primaries. Mir Pbilpot is at present serving his third term as constable of Vaugine township, and throughout his entire terms covering nearly six years he has giy- en that office the cleanest and most efficient administration it has had since the war. At the time of his eleetionEthe constableship had sunk to a very low ebb, but Mir. Philpot, by his honor, sobriety and capabili- ty has elevated the position to one of profit, responsibility and honor. He has been a citizen of Pine Bluff since boyhood, and has always con- ducted himself as an upright citizen and christian gentleman. By req son of his past experience in the constabuIary, Mr. Philpot is peeu- liarly and eminently fitted for the position to. which he aspires, and should he be elected and elevated to the Sheriffalty, the people can be as sured of a very capable and efficient administration of that office. His candidacy is therefore worthy of the serious consideration of his fellow Democrats and citizens.

A GupgestiOn.

We observe that some palace coaches lately turned out by q ear building com pany are more magnificent than any that have gone before. The queen of England herself Is not housed in quar- ters more costly and luxurious than these in which the plainest American citizen, if he has money enough, may be transported from one side of this continent to the other. A bewildering ar rayof white and gold color, of the finest, richest silken plush, of mirrors that flash like diamonds, of rosewood, of English oak, of Circassian walnut and St. Jago mahogany greet the gaze of the traveller entering one of these gorgeous coaches.
 'Tis we'll Nothing is too fine for the common American citizen, if he has money to pay for it.
 And yet-we are pained to say it-- the American citizen would give up at least half this gorgeousness and cost1i- ness if he could be assured of just one comfortable day and night during a long journey The magnificent coaches are horribly ill ventilated, the alleged sleeping berths are as bad and cramped as they can be, and the poor passenger is nearly strangled with smoke. He is peppered with dust and soot. Give us comfortable sleeping compartments, real little rooms, with the plainest bed ding, so that it is clean and we can get some air. Abolish the frightful dust, smoke and jolting on your cars. You can do it. Put half the cost into one plain sleeping car and make two in its place, so that we shall have elbow room and breathing room. These be matters more vital to our comfort than carven ivory and Tabaseo mahogany.

A Reception to Breckinridge.

Maj. Clifton R. Breckinridge, late Ambassador of the United States at the Court of the Czar, has arrived in Washington by way of New York and is expected to arrive at his home in this city sometime next week. It has been suggested that upon his return the citizens of Pine Bluff, irrespective of party, should tender MT. Bteckinridge a fitting re- eeption, and with that end in view there will be a public meeting at the court house tomorrow Saturday. afternoon at 4.o'clock for the pur- pose of making arrangements for said reception.
 The people of Pine Bluff should turn out and do honor to MT. Breck- inridge on this occasion. As Am bassador to Russia and also as Congressman MT. Breckinridg has reflected honor upon himself, his State and his country. It is fitting and proper that some public recog- milton should be made of his dis. tinguished services to his country. MT, Brckinridge is the first Ambas- sador the State of Arkansas has ever furnished the National Govern ment to foreign court. President Cleveland during his term of office, honored the State of Arkansas in the appointment of MT. Breckin- ridge to one of the highest and most responsible positions in the diplo- matie service, and Mr Breckinridge discharged the high and responsible duties of his position in such man. ner as to reflect credit upon his country. Therefore the people O Pine Bluff should give public testi mony of their appreciation of Mir Breckinridge's exalted position, sa

A pure food and drug convention has been called to meet in Washington March 3. Its object is to urge congress to pass Q law against the adulteration of food and drugs. Such q convention is welcome. In their haste to get rich both grocers and druggists in the United States have adulteratod their propara- tions to Q point where reputable dealers in these lines of trade have uttered loud protest. The dirty, unwho1esomo and sometimes actively poisonous sub stances that have been mixed with foods and medicines by unprincipled drug
 gists and groeers have cost many q life. The number and variety of these delete rious substances arc beyond belief by one not behind the scenes Their evil mysteries have only been revealed when states have passed pure food and drug laws and appointed inspectors to see that such laws were executed. It would be better if the matter could be left still to state legislation, if there were pros pect that such legislation would reach the case. The most satisfactory feature of the movement for pure food and drugs is that the reputable grocers and chemists are themselves tho leaders of it.

THE ROMANTIC PLAY OF CARMEN.

The theaJregoers will shortly have an opportunity to welcome that universal favorite, Rosabel Nor rison whose conscientious efforts in every role she has appeared in has won for her the admiration and re- spect of all that value dramatic talent. Her appearance at the opera house Monday, January 3l, will be signalized by a most beautiful pro- duetion of the roh.antlc play "Carmen' whose fascinating story has been the sensation of two conti- nents. The advent of the Spanish Gypsy, caused the exit of .'Trilby." One popular idol made place for the other, but, unlike her predecessor, "Carmen" seems to have come to stay. Miss Morrison has surround ed herself with a very strong com pany of prominent players and will present the play most layishly New and original scenery, costumes, cal cium effects and properties are car ried, which i'll its entirety, should make her engagement most memorable one.

Railway Building.

By the beginning of the twentieth century the United States will have nearly 200, 900 miles of railway in oper- ation When it is remembered that mile of railway costs on tho average $8,000, it will be seen how much money is invested in the iron roads
 The last great year of railway build ing in tho United States was 1887. By that time the great impetus received from the civil war and the opening of the vast wheatfelds of the northwest had spent itself. Roads west and south had been put through regions where they would not pay for dozen years. Rival lines had been constructed where there was only business for one, and both were crippled. The only thing to do was to wait and let the people grow up with the railroads. In some loeah- ties they have done this, in others not.
 In 1887 there were constructed in this country t2, 983 miles of railway. Then the construction fever stopped. The next year the miles of new road dropped to T, 106. Since then year by year the number has fallen rapidly till 1897. Not even the development of the popular trolley system could swell the footings. In 1896 the figures were ,848, the lowest iii ten years In 1897, however, the business began to look up little, a very little, the figures reach ing 1,864. The present year the increase will be considerably more than this. It is to be sincerely hoped the dividends of the roads stockholders will increase even more in proportion than the rato of railway track laying.

Tho list of fire losses is smaller for 1897 than for either 1895 or 1896 This is partly owing to the fact that some of the companies have put up their rates for fire insurance.

TO EXECUTE THEM

Since Then n Number of the Resi-

A detachment OF the Third infantry
at Fort Smelling has, according to a
telegram received from Washington,
last night, been ordered to the Leech
lake Indian reservation, to quel dis
turbances among the Indians. The
trouble with the redskins resulted
from an unsuccessful attempt Of a
United States officer recently to arrest
several Indians, including CHIEF, for
selling whisky to their tribesmen
Since this event the Indians have been
IN an ugly frame Of mind and an out
break has been feared That the sit
uation is regarded as serious by the
authorities is evidenced by the determi-
nation to dispatch troops to the scene
of the trouble.
The Indians made a threatening DEM
onstration at the time the United
States officer attempted to make the
arrests. The officers visited the reser-
walton the day the government sup
plies were issued. They had warrants
for the arrest of Bis-kim- bi-lah, a chief,
and several other Indians, for selling
liquor on the reservation. The red
skins were in an ugly mood, defiant
and refused to allow their tribesmen
to be taken. The Indians are on an
island in Leech lake. Here they have
remained, while em1ssaries of the now
hostile band visited other Indians by
night and sought to incite a general
uprising.
When the serious nature of affairs
was reported to the government, the
matter was at once turned over to the
war department, and an order was is
sued directing that a detachment Of
soldiers be sent to the scene of trouble.
The soldiers will cooperate with the
United States officers in effect
ing the arrest Of the In
dians wanted, and resistance on
the part of the redskins undoubted-
ly means a number Of good" Indians.
The detachment of regulars will leave
for Leech lake tomorrow.

ALGERISM DENOUNCED.
New Jersey Democrats Nominate
EIvin w. Crane for Governor

New Jersey Democrats Nominate
EIvin w. Crane for Governor.
TRENTON, N. j., Sept. 28.-The Demo-
cratic state convention today nominated for
governor Of New Jersey Elvin W. Crane, the
prosecutor of Essex county, and adopted a
platform which in a measure supports the
Democratic national platform. The conven-
ton, however, without debate, defeated a
proposition to specifically indorse the plat
form adopted by the convention of 1896 This
for few moments caused considerable tur-
moil, but the band struck up a lively tune
and finally the silver men accepted the stu
alton gracefully. Later when Mr.. Crane had
been nominated Senator DAILY and Clarence
Atkinson both of whom were special favor
ties of the silver men and were candidates
for the nomination, mounted the platform
and promised to do all they could to insure
Mr. Cranes election. a feature of the con-
vention was the presence of a delegation of
colored men who had called to pledge sup
port to the conventions nominee.
The platform agreed on by the state com
mittee for submission to the conventions
committee resolutions makes state issues
the principal feature, but contains an in
dorsement of the national principles of the
party The first paragraph ig as follows:
We, the representatives of the Democratic
party, III STATE convention assembled
affirm our devotion to the great and vital
principles of the Democratic party on ma
tional issues; believing, however, that the
coming campaign should be fought out ON
state issues and for the redemption of the
state from extravaganza, corruption and
misrule.
A paragraph is devoted to thanking the
soldiers of New Jersey, who volunteered for
the Spanish-American war. The present fed
eral administration is charged with being re-
sponsible for the horrible results of inMr
potency of government officials In the man
agement Of the war after continued atten-
ton to these appalling results had bean
brought to President McKinley's notice At
tention is called to the fact that not a sin,

cludes with deploring that an ex-governor of
