There is a constant demand for
gasoline stoves, Why2 Because
the new gasoline stoves work per.
fectlN keep the kithen cool and
pleasant, and do away with the
bother of having wood and kludllnp

on account Of the cheapness of
gasoline, as compared with other
fuel for cooking purposes,
by actual test II has been found
that four gallons Of gasoline will 90

We've All Been There,

When a public man manifests a
special grudge against the newspa-
pers, it is safe to say he has at
some period of his life felt the
sting of their criticism, aud the
chauces,are he deserved a "raking
over" Some men in public life i'm.
agine it is the duty of the newspa.
pers to hatter them from one end
of the year to the other, to hide
their short comings and make life
one grand sweet song, in lieu of
which they will cOndescend to give
the newspaper man a patronzing
smile occasionally If the newspa-
pers, however, choose to assert
their independece and call such pub
lie officials to account occasionally
for dereliction of duty, and not in
frequently curse themselves red in
the face and make loud resounding
threats Of personal violence. The
Democrat reporters have been
cussed and discussed, and occasion
ally a long distance threat reaches
the editorial sanctum, but some
how we have always felt secure in a
just cause, and have gone forward
in the fearless discharge of our
duty to the public, Arkansas Dem
ocrat.

SMALL CROWD.

The reporter went down to the
depot this morning to get list OF
names of those parties who were
billed to 90 to Ananias on fishing
trip. We we're shown a list on
Saturday evening Of those who had
signed to 90, and it embraced the
names of some seyenty-fve congo
uial souls, besides this we we're told
that invitations had been mailed
to other parties in the city re-
questins the pleasure Of theri com
pany in augmenting the party in
numbers and sociability,
With these facts before us, we
thought it would take at least d
column to report the list OF names
of those who would attend, and be-
fore leaving the Office for the depot
we sharpeued a couple of pencil:
and pocketed a large sized tab
When we arrived there, the train
was standing on the track, having
Just pulled in from Kansas City OF
twenty minute stop at this place
The reporter looked around for the
fishing party but not a one O.
them showed up. Just before the
train left, Hon. Charles Todd anC
lady, Mr.. and Mrs. Mcmillan
Messrs. J. w. Stauheld and ]. Pull
len showed up and boarded tn
train for the fishing ground,
Mr.. Todd told the reporter tha
owing to a chain of circumstances
not forged by any of the part,
themselves, they were kept fror
going, but that he expected tha
many of them would join his part
tomorrow and on through tn
week.

At last the Filipinos did not sue
for peace, as the press dispatches
stated would be the case, a few days
since. Three different sets of rep
resentatives have gone to Gen,
Otis, only to ask the same thing,
that an armistice be made, until the
Filipino congress can consider what
they desire IN the way of terms Oh
course Otis refused. But it is uu-
deniable that insurgents are now il
dreadful straights, and ready tC
terminate the war. Let us hope
that end will soon come.

Question of Importance to school
directors now is, will the new Ar
kansas school law, which expressly
says that no public school shall be
run for a longer period than there
is money in the treasury to pay for,
be enforced. 1t is oontended that
it applies to special school districts
as well as all others. If this law is
carried out many of our public
schools will have to remain closed,
until they get out of debt. All the
same, it is a good law, in that it will
not permit school directors to run
school districts heavily in debt.

space of 450Xl20O feet, 1t is inti-
mated that concrete may be used In
its construction, instead of Fouche

ite is far preferable. OF course it
will take longer time to build with
granite, but this is no reason for
not using it, as Arkansas is not
building it for temporary use, but

The SILVER BELT joins most enrn. estly iu the general condemnation on the part of the press of this territory of the increasing menace to the mining industry, due to wildcat miniug sch. m,s which are now being foattd throughout the eastern states. Tle abuse llas grown SO gient that it Is al most Impossible to pick mp paper published in any of the large eastern cities that does no: cuntaiu Il lengthy advertisements couched In language which. t" all except the most gnllil,le, would bespenk the swindler pure and simple. Not the least of the harm arising from this practice is tue fact that the shares are sold to those wbo eau leust afford to lose the money, the present high value of copper utfording ample pretrxt to tue ''promoiers" for offering quick returns on Nh insiPbiti cant outlay, in line with the stock ip trade sre ulnent of the gold brick man. In mining. as in few other forms of spt cnlation, the property shows for it. self, and mining boom, which is de- pendent upon the smooth talk of "promot-r" whose chief concern is thnt his victim does not know, or knowing shall not see the mine, is n boom to be avoided. Good copper or gold mines sell theunsel yes, there heinz abundant capital ready to invest. For tunately, Globe has not suffered more than tue practices mentioned above have caused all inning districts through the lack of confidence which these frauds when exposed engender. This district has the mineral to back statements made, and our niue owners are not only ready but willing and anxious that prospective purchasers shonld examine properties before in. vesting dollar.
