ROOSEVELT ON ANARCHY.
Extracts on Anarchy and An
archists from the Presi-
dents Message.

We mourn a good and great president
who is dead; but while we mourn we
are lifted up by the splendid achieve
ments Of his life and the grand heroism
with which he met his death.
When we turn from the man to the
nation, the harm done is so great as to
excite our grayest spprehensions and
to demand our wisest and most resolute
action. This criminal was professed
anarchist, inflsmed by the teachings OF
professed anarchists, and probably alec
by the reckless uttersnces OF those
who, on the stump and in the public
press, appeal TO the dark and evil
spirits of malice and greed, envy and
sullen hatred. The wind is sowed by
the men who preach such doctrines, and
they cannot escape there share OF
responsibility for the whirlwind that is
reaped. This applies alike to the de-
liberate demsgogue, to the exploiter of
sens .tionalism, and to the crude and
foolish visionary who for whatever rea'

THE LIGHTING CONTRACT.

The Bosrd of Public Affairs Tues day afternoon awarded the contract for city lighting for the next fifteen years to the Bluff City Lumber Co.,
 The above named company in it's bid proposes to maintain and operate an electric street railway in connec- tion with it's light plant, and in awarding the contract to the Bluff City the Board of Public Affairs re- flected the wishes of the people and carried out the best interests of the city
 There was competitive bid from the Pine Bluff Water x Light Co.,. but that corporation does not propose to build and operate an electric street railway The bid of the Water & Light Co. is apparently $l.5o less on each are light and 15c less on each incandescent light than the Bluff Citys bid, but the fact that the Bluff City Lumber Co will build and oper- ate an electric street railway-which will benefit every tax payer in the city-furnish competitive lights and a day as well as night current, be- sides the additional revenue it will bring the city in taxation from it's plant and poles, renders the Bluff City Lumber Co.'S bid the best and cheapest in the end
 The present price the city is pay ing the Pine Bluff Light & Water Co is s15 per month for each arc light and S1.75 per month for each incan descent light. The Board of Public Airs awards the new contract to the Bluff City Lumber Co. at $1O pel month for each arc light and s12! per month for each incandescent. | is obvious, therefore that the Bluff City Lumber Go. will furnish the cit, lights at a much cheaper price thar

CCl SUPERVISION.

The t..i ..zzay ding for county su- rsHy:s:5a of the public schools has passed the Senate and now awaits the action Of the House. It is ear nast,y hoped that the House will pass the measure and that it will become ! law No interests of the people are more important than their school af- fairs and any measure that will i'm prove the efficiency of the schools is certainly wise and wholesome legis- lation
 In this age of skill and progress it seems strange that any argument in favor of adequate and intelligent SUI peryision for every form of human ac- tiyity should be necessary In private business of every kind and in the op- eration of any sort of industry men readily recognize the need and value Of skilled direction and training to labor. Think of a factory, a machine shop, a cotton mill or any enterprise of any magnitude without superin- tendent or foreman. Yet there are thousands of untrained and mex perieneed teachers in our State who have no direction or guidance what ever. To these persons is commit ted the training of the youth of the State, and upon their ability and suc- cess depends, in a large measure, the future of the commonwealth. We spend more than million of dollars annually in teachers salaries. Would it not be wisdom and economy to spend a reasonable amount in secur- ing supervision which will stimu- late and guide the whole teaching force and give us better teachers, better plans of work and more ef- ficient training of our children?
 No school system can be what it should be without wise and skillful supervision. The superiority of the schools in our cities and towns is chiefly que to the well-directed and faithful superintendents who go from room to room and building to build ing stimulating. encouraging and in- spring the teachers, pruning out the bad, multiplying the good, and deter mining what shall be done and how it shall be done.
 In every occupation two kinds of labor are required-that Of planning and that of executing Complete edu- cation consists in the full and sym- metrical development of all the DOW CTS of 8 human being. This develop ment can only be secured by wisely directed effort in accordance with the laws of physical and mental science. The outlining of a course of study, the direction of plans of teaching, the guidance of inexperienced teachers, the wise expenditure of public reve- mes, these and numerous other mat ters require the time and efforts of strong and capable superintendent.
 There is no doubt but that close. vigilant, capable and fearless super vision is not only a necessity in any system of schools. but is a most valu- able productive form of labor and it's employment is the wfsest and best possible use of a portion of the school revenues.
