Since nominees Of one party or the
other are eventually to become public
officials, it is. as have said, Of prime
importance that good men be nomi-

eminent the will Of the people is the
supreme power. To secure good nomi-
nations with consideration of the PEG
pies will. it is necessary that the peo-
pie in the most practical way possible,
give a full honest expression of their
choice candidiy, and after considerate
judgment. Any system which permits
nominations without such considerate
action on the part Of the people en-
dangers republican government. be-
cause it is destruction to the most vital
principle of such government.
It must be admitted that the present
system does not so secure the full hon
est expression OF the choice Of the
people for party nominations. If such
a system ever does do so. 1t Is the ex
ception rather than the general rule
First OF all, it seldom secures a good
attendance at primaries. Questions OF
more than ordinary Importance must
be involved If il does Thig. for one
reason, is because Of the numerous
caucug es and conventions necessary un
der the system. The busy active bust

can not give up his time TO the attend

 with the Casino Company.
 Ten years have elapsed since Prince Albert aseended the throne of the Grimaldi amid q pageant which re- called the middle ages, says the Gen. teman's Magazine. The reigning sov- ereign, who is 51 years old was ed- ucated as a naval osieeI, d has served in both the Spanish and French navies, taking part in the Franco Prussian war Of 1870. In England he is known for his papers on ocean- ography; in France he has lately mads himself conspicuous for his letter to Mme. n.eyfus; at home he is regard ed as very shreWd man of business. who has made excellent terms for him. self with the Casino company. So far the most important event of his reign has been the renewal of M Blanc's original corCesSion, which would have expired in 1913, for a fus .her period or fifty years from that date. This new privilege will have cost from first to last million sterling in hard cash PtAo u IHc plllCE5 di dpuully ElSluS every ten years, till it will reach Il00,000 in the last decade; new opera house, to cost GSe ?00, and, as D recognition of the artistic tastes c1 the prince, a sum of 1,000 for each or ten special representations at the theater He also receives, as may be seen from the balance sheet of the company for last year, an additional grant of 920,000 for his law courts. police and army of seventy-fve men and Is also large shareholder in the concern. Besides all this, the Casino pays for public works and roads, light ing, the water supply, the official wash house, the state baths and the loss on the postoflice, while, true to the religious character of Monaco, it gives grants to the bishop, the clergy and the conyents.

Dealers throughout the South should take notice that Pine Bluff will soon be in a position to compete With Northern furniture factories.
 Every citizen of Pine Bluff should lend his hearty support to our worthy County Judge and tho Commercial League in their efforts to secure the free bridge across the Arkansas river at this place. The enterprise is not for the benefit of few of our citizens, but the county, city and their people will enjoy the benefits to be derived from it. Let us not throw obstacles in the path of the enterprise. out let every citizen throw his support and in Huenee towards securing the badly needed bridge, that it may stand for years to come as a monument to the pushing and progressive qualities pos sessed by the people of Jefferson County.

MIDNIGHT CLOSING.

A bill has been introduced in the State General Assembly to require all saloons in cities and towns to close at midnight. A similar movement Of this kind is being made in several of the large cities, notably in Chicago, where an extraordinary outbreak of crime and disorder some weeks ago aroused the public to demand the en- forcemest of the law against all-niga saloons, dives and disreputable resorts generally. Under the compulsion of public opinion Mayor Harrison revok- ed the licenses of various resorts and forced the satoons to close at mid night.
 Under the caption. Midnight Clos ing Prevents Crime, the Chicago Record says:
 comparison of the conditions that now prevail with those that existed be- fore the midaight-closing ordinance was enforced is most instructive. The Daily News has obtained expressions from a number of prominent police of ficials which go to show that midnight closing has already worked wonders and can be relied on to produce still better results. Chief of Detectives Coileran says:
 Less crime exists in the city of Chicago at this season of the year than in the same season at any time in the last ten years and CUT records will show it.
 This present dicrease in crime may be attributed principally to the enforcement of the midnight-elosing ordinance and to the resurrection of the vagrancy law, which as materially assisted the police department in driy- ing well known crooks from the city"
 Capt. Schaettler says:
 My district. which is ordinarily the quiotest in the city. has become so orderly since the enforcement of the 12 o'clock closing ordinance against saloons that ny officers nave scarcely anything to do. hope for the sake of the geod name of Chicago that it will continue to be enforced. Half of the crime in any large city can be traced to the influence of the all night saloon
 Lieut.. Peter P Joyce of detective headquarters says there is now less crime than usual in Chicago and that tie reduction of crime is due to the closing of the allnight saloons. h. spector Heildelmeier says that things never before were so quiet in a crim 1nal Way and that this condition would continue if the saloons were forced to continue closing at midnight. Capt. John Rehm says that with all-night saloons closed thieves and crooks will leave Chicago. Inspector Kalas says:
 We could get along all right with out an increase of the police force if the saloons were to close at 12 o'clock at all times."

Electricity as we know it is Just 100 years old. In 1799 the Italian sci enlist Volta gave definite form to the method of producing the current, and i. is from his name that we have the term yoltmeter to describe the instru- ment which measures the force of the current, and volt as the unit of that measurement.
