Comments The Tribune.

THE TRIBUNE is in receipt of the following letter from Mrs. Satella Penman, president of the w. c. T. U. of the 8th district of Iowa. Mrs. Penman is a sister of J. A. Jaques of Green Forest. It will be remembered that she and her husband were recent visitors at the home of MT. Jaques. The letter is as follows:
 Rock Rapids, Iowa, Feb. 25, 1901. Russell Brothers,
 Editors of THE TRIBUNE,
 Green Forest, Ark.
 Dear Sirs: A copy of your very ex- cellent, clean and interesting paper came to us this evening, for which we great fully thank the sender. Glad that our nephew is a helper on such a commend able sheet.
 The editorials were especially enjoyed, including the one about Mrs. Nation, which shows mind unprejudiced and free to confess a conviction, which as yet in this case has found but compara- lively little expression, and that from the acknowledged wisest and best.
 Sincerely yours,
 SATELLA PENMAN.

IT is useless for the papers of the state to be bewailing the short comings of the legislature. Not until our people are prompt ed by higher ideals of man than his partisan, moss back politics will the various counties be prop erly represented. There are a great many wide awake, broad guaged men in the present legis- lature but majority of them can only see the partisan side to a question, hence the good men are handicapped in their efforts to do good for the state.

OUR republicans are talking of
 honoring General Clayton with
 banquet when he comes to see
 us on the first railroad train.-
 Harrison Times.
 Why confine such a demon stration to political lines? The people all have General Clayton to thank for the railroad and why not all join in showing him a good time. We will give him a nonpartisan reception, and roy al one at that, if he will only stop off at Green Forest. Politics never built railroads nor towns either.

Remarkable Cures For Rheumatism,

From the vindicator, Authorization, N. c.
 The editor of the Vindicator has had occasion to test the ef- ficacy of Chamberlain Pain Balm twice with the most re- markable results in each case. First, with rheumatism in the shoulder from which he suffered excruciating pain for ten days, which was relieved with two ap- plications of Pain Balm, rubbing the parts afflicted and realizing instant benefit and entire relief in a very short time. Second, with rheumatism in thigh joint, almost prostrating him with severe pain, which was relieved with two ap- plications, rubbing with the lin iment on retiring att night, and getting up free from pain.

so far as to bet that Mr. Bickley would never be confirmed. These few friends of MT. Stahl have perhaps forgot that in thus fight ing the confirmation of Mr. Bick- ley, they were also fighting the president as well, and the Chair man of the state central com mittee, Col. Renmel, Gen. Clay ton and the party organization in general who had recommended Bickley.'
The Green Forest tribune., 1901-03-09

THE President is fully deter mined that Congress shall not escape it's share of the responsi- bility of the duty of deciding our future relation with Cuba, and he cannot be blamed. No matter whatis decided upon there will be plenty of criticism, owing to the diversity of opinion as to what should be done.

THE old war over the inaccura- cies of school histories threatens to become active again all over the country. No history was ever written that would not have been called fiction by many who participated in the events describ- ed; hence the impossibility of getting out a history of events in the lifetime of it's readers that will not be disputed.
The Green Forest tribune., 1901-03-09

THE present session of the legis- 1ature has been extended to May 4, makingit Ill days in length. For the past 15 years each suc- ceeding session has been extend el just little longer than the previous one. This is an evil that should be remedied by put ting the members on salary in- stead of $500 per day.

THE Progress is a little "on- easy" for THE TRIBUNE'S rep. depending on the defeat of Stahl for the marshalship. There IS not a particle of danger, Bro. Goudelock, not bit, not a bit. Rnt the Progress had better look alittle out for it's truth and vesacity on the marshalship business. It states that the Republican coun- sty central committee met last Wednesday and endorsed for Stahl. As a matter of fact, no meeting has yet been called, and it is also a fact that this county will never endorse for Stahl.

Stah1 Couldn't Get in His Work.

Stah1 Couldn't Get in His Work.
 Stahl and his gang undertook to defeat the confirmation of Bickley who was recently indors- ed and appointed for postmaster at Texarkana, because Bicl1ley is for Foreman for marshal.
 Discussing the matter the Tex arkana Texarkanian. a demo- cratic paper, says:
 "As there seemed to be some doubt as to the confirmation of MT. J. G. Bickley as postmaster, to succeed Mr. Foreman, the edi- tor of this paper yesterday wired Senator Jones, asking whether or not it was true. Senator Jones answered that MT. Bickley's ap- pointment was confirmed on Feb. 26th by the Senate. Mr. Fore man also received messages from Senators Hanna and Elkins to the same effect.
 This settles the postmastershir fight which has been on since MT Bickley was appointed to the place by the president a month ago. In face of the fact that Mr Bickley had the strongest en- dorsement any republican ever had for an office from this city the few followers of Marshal Stah made a desperate fight to defea this confirmation. This was pro. bably done with the hope of in. turing MT. Foreman, MT. Bick- ley's best friend, in his race fol the marshalship. One of Mr Stahl's deputies, we learn, wen

GOVERNOR DAVIS certainly did the right thing when he vetoed the concurrent resolution looking to the expenditure of S550, ,000 for the purchase of the "Sunnyside" plantation in Chicot county for 8 convict farm. It lies in the over flowed district of the state. The governor suggests that it would be very unhealthful to the convicts, especially from the up- land portions of the state.

WEBSTER DAVIS has written a book on the South African war and sold the copyright for S180, : 900, so Web has lost nothing financially, after all. He went to South Africa while he was assis- tant secretary and got the data and when he came back he re- signed and wrote his book.

MAY AMEND LAW.
City May Ask That Its Part OF the
Public School Fund Be
Paid Direct.

It is probable that at its next session
the legislature will be asked to amend
the act creating a system OF public
schools in Dawson so that the city's
pro rata part the state school tund
will be paid direct to the treasurer OF
the CITY board instead OF coming
through the county board ofeducatlon,
as at present.
The cause of this change in the local
law. if it is made, will be to save to the
city nearly 800 year The county
board now deducts the salary OF the
commissioner and its other expenses
from the amount appOrtioned to this
county before distributing the money
among the various schools, thereby
causing the Dawson schools, which are
an independent system, to contribute
to the payment of the expenses OF the
county board. If the change is made
and the money is paid by the state di-
rect to the city board this will be
saved.
The past year the city's share OF the
state fund was 1880, but it only re-
ceived 81, $50 after its pro rata part or
the expenses of the county board had
been deducted.

ATTEMPTED TO BREAK JAIL.
SEVEN PRISONERS CAME NEAR GAIN
ING THEIR LIBERTY.
Mrs, Slade Heard Them at Work and Gave
the Alarm. Intended to Go Through
the Sewer Under the Cells.

Mrs. Sla6e, wife of Deputy Sheriff ).
II. Slade, who occupies the residence
portion of the jail, prevented the eS-
cape of the seven negroes now in prls-
on late last Tuesday.
Mrs. Slade heard a noise in the jail
as if some one was knocking with a
heavy piece of wood or lron' ana al
once gave the alarm.
An investigation showed that the
prisoners had torn up the sink IN one
of the cells and with large piece OF
iron that had been used in its con-
struction were breaking the steel floor
around the hole in the sink. In a little
while they would have had the open
ing large enough to admit them INTO
the sewer beneath, through which
thew intended to crawl to their lib
erty.
But for Mrs. Slade hearing the noise
all the prisoners would probably have
escaped that night.
Workmen have since been engaged
in making repairs in the cell that was
torn up, and the prisoners are kept
locked in the corridor of the Jail night
and day.
Three prisoners escaped in similar
manner year or two ago. The moor
of the cells is made of chilled steel,
which cannot be cut or drilled through,
hut it seems that heavy lick will
l1ceak it,
