There's an image left wi,hin our

That will ever remain as new
Fond parents aim are empty
Their hearts are filled with grief.
But De who caused this sorrow

May this be a c0mtot-
For hearts go fl Ell with pain
That these our great nflllct,ous.
Are for our eternal gain.

WHILE the censored dispatches
from the Philippines give the idea
that the Insurgent forces are but
small bands of rowing mauraders
who do nothing but annoy our
soldiers, it is easy to Judge from the
soldiers private letters that this is
simply political buncombe. M. B.
Russell, formerly of Green Forest,
but now corporal in the 34th In
family, writes to the Tribune, con-
corning the situation as follows:
Numerous engagements are had be-
tween the Insurgents and our troops
that are never given to the public,
In many such instances, Americans
are wounded and even killed. The
Peace Commission have so far ac-
complished nothing by their offer of
$50 each for guns, and transporta-
ton home to Filippinos who will
lay down their arms. In view OF
past experiences and present condi-
tons, | am of the opinion that this
country will have to be heavily gar
risoned with soldiers for long time
to come. At least l consider that
there is no immediate prospects of
surrender on the part of the Insur-
gent army. 1t is known that they
now have over 10000 armed troops.
1t is mistake to think that the In
surgent army in this country con
sists of mere guerrilla bands. They
are becoming organized in large
bodies and are under command of
recognized leaders"

Wireless Telephones Next.

AT Saturdays session of the physi-

ISOLATION Tor the Advancement OF
Science, Sir William Henry Preece,
consulting engineer to the British
postoiice, made the announcement
that as a result Of his experiments
with wireless telegraphy, he had
found it quite possible to convey au-
dible speech six to eight miles across
the sea without wires. He added
that II was a practical commercial
system and might be extended to
communication between ships and

Own a Home.

The time has arrived when every
man with family should own a
home-when every farmer should
own the land he tllls. To do this in
the north where high prices are the
rule is next toimpossible. There all
the earnings of the day laborer are
consumed in providing for the iami-
ly, and the little sum that the tenant
farmer has been saying for years is
gone with a single crop failure. In
all cases the rent must be paid, and
nearly always in advance. 1t mat
tiers not what the harvest is, the
landlord is secure. He never knows
such IA thing as crop failure-he
never knows what it is to move
from place to place-year after year
and lose half he has in moving.
No, it is the poor mantle tenant
farmer-who suffers, and his only
safety lies in becoming landlord,
himself II he can't buy in the North
where prices are Highland he can't
The must come South; he must come
where he can find what hts in price
the contents of his poeketbook. 1t
may be that his cheap land is not
like that to which he has been aceus-
tomed-it may not consist of rolling
plains and broad prairies-but it is
good land, nevertheless. 1t is land
that he can own-it is land that will
yield him abundant returns tor his
labor. When once paid for it is his,
and it remains his as long as Sarah
Jane refuses to sign the deed. No
landlord can move him. but by the
exercise of thrift and industry he can
build home that will supply the
wants of the family with plenty and
to spare. He can enjoy comforts
that he would never have known as
a renter, and can feel in a heretofore
unknown measure that he is indie.
pendent. And why not? his lands
are his own, he grows his crops for
himself and not for the profit of a
greedy Landlord; he has his foeks
and his herds; his granaries and his
orchards. He rests secure in the
bosom Of his family. And, when
alife's laborers are done-when the
implements of toll are lald aside
they can plant him on the old home

TEDDY ROOSEVELT furnishes a curl
Gus study to contemplative minds
He actually believes that the demo-
Gratis oppose imperialism simply and
solely because the republicans sup
port it. In recent speeches he has as
serted that if the latter had opposed
taking the Philippines, the demo-
Gratis would have favored taking
them. In other words, Teddy can
see but one side of the question and
can't understand how anybody else
can see another side.

THE administration will do well
to go slow in blowing about the tri-

have not forgotten the twenty mill

upon US by Spain, and the Chinese
complication has not yet been set

scoop that England put upon US.
To an observsnt man diplomacy
does not appear to be one of the adj

PLANTATION of the falling off in the

should be stated that neither was
credited with Fulton county. where
according to the official returns,
Frank Hill was voted for for state
land commissioner, while no candi-
date was voted for for commissioner
of mines, manufactures and agricult-
ure.. The low vote for railroad com
missioners is also partially explained
by the fact that two counties did
not vote for Judge Hanley, three did
not vote for Abuer Gaines and FIVE
failed to vote for Judge Wallace,
through misinterpretation Of the
law, believing that they were not
required to vote for all the nomi-
nees for railroad commissioner. The
vote on the road tax and the wine
question, being purely local meas
ures, many counties failed to vote on

Upon the principle of there being
no song like an old song, it just now
happens, that in North Arkansas one
does not know what song is the
oldest and best to hear sung. that of
the oneoming railroad, or the diseoy-
cries of richer ore and more of it,
that have crowded, land are Still
erowdingl the boards, since the first
of the year
1t is, at all events, assured at this
time, that present discoveries of ore
will outrun all expectation upon
which railroad promoters had pre-
Dictated their enterprise; and it is, in
turn, assured to North Arkansas,
that the outcome of the past years
mineral development has alone
solved the question of tonnage upon
which railroad connections depend.
The TIMES, which has worked to
the end of exaggerating nothing be-
cause of the effect upon railroad peo-
pie, has never been less than san
guine of results, as we haveit to-day,
And for its own part it has not, at
any time despaired of railrod eonnec-
ton, as consequence of old and
new discoveries; knowing well that
there are others ready to take the
place aofrailroad promoters no were
on the ground floor.
But withal that the TIMES has
never lost heart over the situation,
it is free to say that its confidence
has been strengthened more by those
who, in keeping at work on their
properties, gave outsiders good
reason for believing that our mineral,
the quality and amount of it, was
worth coming after 1t is this fact
which has worked out the problem
of our assured railroad connections,
with everything to hope for in the
way of extensions to other parts OF
the zinc field. 1t is the old song sung
since the mineral boom began, OF
every man and every community OF
North Arkansas doing what they can
for their country, to the end that
railroad promoters will find reason
in its resources for helping the coun-
try. 1t will be long way from re-
alizing this when the road reaches
Harrison. But if all parts OF the
mineral held will only keep up the
record of the past year, there will be
nothing lett at which railroad build
ers can quarrel. They are out for
business, pure and simple, and if it is
shown that it is worth while, there
is no question of the railroad going
after mineral whenit is uncovered at
many points and in quantity.
