Reunited Excessive Fines.

Governor Davis remitted $490 of he $500 fine assessed against James Wright and Henry Weaver, by Little Rock justice for violating the Wilson anti-gambling law. In ex- )lanation of his action in these cases, Governor Davis made the following statement: "These negroes, the proof showed, were simply engaged n what Is called craps, and were not exhibiting any gambling devices or unning any gambling houses, and he fine imposed in this case was out .ageous and, therefore, l have taken he liberty to remit all of said fine except S10, the usual fine assessed in such cases under the old law prior to he Wilson act. Some criticism having been made as to my action in his matter, 1 take this method of giving to the public my reason for
 he same. l do not intend to see the Wilson act made odious and ridicu- lous by the officials of this county y having them permit the gambling houses to run wide open in this city md a jury of their peers acquit them
 md see the severe penalty of this law inflicted on the ignorant negroes for shooting craps. It is not the in- tention of the Wilson gambling act to punish any such cases, but they are left under the old law regulating gambling which existed prior to the passage of this act The Wilson gambling act, in my judgment, was only intended to reach those who ex- hibited gambling devices and ran gambling houses. The conviction of these two negroes. in my opinion, is a travesty and mockery of justice. They are now on the farm under the lash of q taskmaster, in my judg- ment only to make this law odious, and l am determined to see justice done and do not intend to see the penalties of this act imposed upon them"

Sixty thousand men are now on a strike for recognition of their unions i'll the United States Steel Corporation. Both sides seem determined. These strikes hurt everybody, and their frequency emphasizes the need of national board of arbitration, backed by law that all would be bound to respect and by whose decisions all would have to abide.

The drouth in Faulkner county and probably throughout the state was fully broken last Saturday night and Sunday by copious rain. It is generally conceded that much good will result to late corn, to cotton and to pastures, and that the short crop can be very largely offset by hay and the sow ing of barley and other crops for winter pasture.

Largest in the World.

A red oak tree, lG0 feet high and l2 feet in diameter at the base. which stands two miles east of Elgin, and one mile from the Black river, Is to be floated over 1000 miles to St. Louis for the Worlds Fair. The tree will be dug up by the roots in- stead of cut in the usual manner, and none of its branches will be trimmed, but it will be put up on eX- hibition just as it stood in the woods. This is probably the largest tree of its kind in the world.

Gov. Jeff Davis has created a sensation among the members of the penitentiary board by all inter view which was published i'll the St. Louis Globe Democrat recently, i'll which he stated that the other members of the board were respon sible for the inhuman treatment of convicts in this state. At a meet ing of the board In Little Rock last Monday Attorney-General Murphy read a resolution i'll which he bitterly denounced as false, slan- derous and libelous" the interview of the Governor. The Attorney General's s denunciation was said to have been scathing i'll the eX- treme. The Governor claimed he had been misquoted, but Col. Mur- phy declined to accept this claim and said he believed every state ment had been made and that the Governor knew they were false when he made them. Governor Davis said that the convict ques- ton was one that must be taken before the people. and that he would stump the state on that question.

The farmers will receive good price for cotton seed this fall, un- less the mills combine against them. The short corn crop will make cotton meal and hulls very valuable as feed, and more of 1t will be used than ever before. The southern farmer should not part with his cotton seed at a low price this year. Cotton oil will be high and the meal and hulls as we'll. Do not sell your seed at low price.

 The greatest strike in the history of the United States, involving the heaviest loss both 10 men and manu- lecturers, is that between the steel workers and the great steel trust. While the parties directly involved will be first to feel its effects, the general public will be the greatest sufferers.
 Citizens of Tampa, Fla, took an unusual course to end strike by kidnapping the strike leaders and de- porting them from the city. For several weeks the cigarmakers, most ly Cubans and Spaniards, had been out, and all efforts to settle the trouble failed. It was then the bus mess men determined on putting an end to the strike by forcibly expell- ing the leaders from the com munity.

A Duty ON SIIGAR-

LONDON, March 5.-The Chancellor
of the Exchequer, Sir Michael Hicks
Beach, said prominent member of the
House of Commons to press represent
tative tonight, will probably introduce
a duty on sugar in the forthcoming
budget and will perhaps add a counter
Vailing duty.
A member of the Ministry said Il
can only say that this serious depart
ure from England's historic principles
of free trade is under discussion, as the
provisions of the budget are religiously
kept secret until announced in the
House of Commons. However, if sugar
is not taken off the free list there will
be a larger number of disappointed
Conservatives; on the other hand, the
introduction of such motion will meet
with the most fierce opposition from
the present Liberals and old-time
champions of free trade.

NAVY DEPARTMENT SUSPENDS
EXPERIMENTS.
Agricultural Department Has Evolved
New System of far Greater Efficiency
Radically Different from Marconi's.

WASHINGTON, March 7.-Since last
autumn, the Navy Department has sus-
pended the experiments in the employs
ment of wireless biography, as a means
of communication between vessels and
the shore. Up to this time none of the
warships have been equipped with a
permanent plant While it may be true
that Marconi is coming to the United
States, and that he may while here,
communicate to the Navy Department
some proposition looking to the install
lation of his own system of biography
on our naval vessels, the Navy Depart
ment has not yet engaged him to do So
Rear-Admiral Bradford, the Chief OF
the Equipment Bureau, which natural
ly would install any such means of cons
munication, has had a conference with
some of the most eminent electricians
in the United States, as to the availa-
bility of the wireless telegraphy for
naval use, but, so far, nothing like the
ideal system has been found The
latest proposition has been preached by
the Department of Agriculture. Secre-
tary Wilson, hearing that the Navy
was casting about for a serViceable
system of biography, has written Ad-
miral Bradford, to notify him that tho
Agricultural Department has been eX-
perimentng for some time with Wire
less telegraphy, and has attained re-
marlable results. His experts asserS
that they have evolved a system radi4
cally different from Marconfs and Of
far greater efficiency.
The Bureau of Equipment fortunately
has a considerable appropriation madd
in lump sum at it's disposal 10 cover
the expenses of installing all kinds OF
electrical appliances. The outcome will
be watched with the greatest interest
by all Naval men, particularly in view
of the announcement that not only
England, but Germany and the other
European maritime powers, have orders
ed the installation of wireless plants in
their navies
