A Vigorous Charge.

HUI II. o' 4htbClleli, JuuS0 VI the Fourteenth judicial circuit, has adopted plan to protect the ballot in his county from the cor rupting influences which have heretofore been noticed in some sections, and in charge to the jury commissioners of Boone county he dwelt at length on the methods adopted by poli- tical candidates who seek to se- sure an advantage over their op- ponents by the use of money and other valuable considerations. The denunciation contained in Judge Mitchell's address of this kind of politics is perhaps the strongest ever delivered from the bench in the state of Arkansas, says the Arkansas Democrat. He war1ls the candidates Jf his county that at the next term of his court every one of them will be subpoenaed to appear before the grand jury and give an ac- count of how they secured the votes which they will receive in the primary to be held in Boone on the 29th day of March. In conclusion Judge Mitchell says:
 The clerk will be directed to issue subpoenas to all the Boone county candidates, today, to re- quire them to appear before the July grand jury.
 Each candidate will be reGuir- ed to unequiyocally answer in writing the following questions: "Since January 20, 1902, have you directly or indirectly offered any person anything of value to secure his or any other vote? If so whom?
 "Has anyone offered, directly or indirectly, to sell any vote for anything of. value? If so state all the facts.
 "Have you loaned any money or become security for the pay ment of any money! If so, state the facts
 Each candidate will be requir- ed to submit in writing his ex- pense account in full for the election from January 20, 1902, and this account must be sworn to.
 The law cannot be violated in directly any more than directly. If money is loaned or notes sign ed out of the usual course of business, and the inference can fairly be made that the money was loaned or the note signed was done for election purposes, 1 shall insist on the grand jury re- turning an indictment against the bribe taker or receiver. The person reporting the crime will not be prosecuted in the case re- ported. Any voter trying to in duce a candidate to part with his money will be prosecuted, al- though the candidate refuses to purchase the rotten vote.
 The grand jurors will, the first thing, be examined separately and categorically about vote buying and what they have heard about it. If there are indictments re- turned into court they will not be suppressed or carried over to the next court, but the guilty parties will be tried at the July term if 1t takes all summer.
 This crime must be suppressed, and will be, if you get me a jury who appreciate the sancity of an oath more than they do political zeal, personal friendship or gilt tering gold.
 I think that all the candidates will be honorable men, they are as far as l know. If they are they will appreciate my strong efforts as an exceptionally kind act to them. At least they are forewarned.

The Green Forest tribune., 1902-02-01

Perhaps the most interesting feature, locally speaking, of the State Horticultural Society's an- nual meeting which was held in the city of Fayetteville last week, was the fact that the Carroll county delegation was successful in capturing the next annual meeting for Green Forest.
 The victory is to be pfized all the more since the Fayetteville meeting was the largest and most enthusiastic in the history of the Society during it's twenty two years existence, and the further fact that in the contest the can- didates for the next meeting nar- roweG down to Green Forest and Little Rock and on test vote Green Forest was victorious two to one. No one should get the idea that the State Horticultural Society is an unimportant affair, that it consists only of men who are try
 ing to raise apples to compete for
 a prize at some fair. It is com posed of men who are engaged in the production of all kinds of 4jruits, berries, melons, potatoes, @etc., and incidentally to the rais- ing of bees and poultry, as these are necessary and profitable ad- iuncts to a successful horticultu- ral business. True, no one has to engage in all of these to be a < horticulturist. The diversity of soil and climate render some things profitable in one section of X the state while it would be un- 5s profitable in another and in a
 mountaneous part of the state like < this these sections may be in
 close proximity to each other. # Neither should any one get the
 idea that anybody who desires to
 set out an orchard, large or small,
 can be classed as horticulturist.
 The word has a specific meaning
 the same as teacher, physician,
 merchant and like professions.
 A horticulturist must, at least,
 have practical idea of pomology,
 geology, neurology and entomol-
 ogy. This will enable him to un-
 derstand the class of his land, it's
 laptation to certain fruits and
 have some idea of the various in
 sects and fungi that prey upon his
 fruit, producing the various dis
 eases that sometime prove so destructive. The truly horticul-
 turist knows how to treat his or
 chards, vineyards, etc., with the
 Same skill that a physician diag-
 nosis a disease OF treats his
 patient.
 THE TRIBUNE has for years been
 an enthusiast on the horticultural Possibilities of Carroll county and
 for the second time one of it's ed
 itors has attended the state meet
 ing and if our advice given to our
 farmers six years ago to plant
 more orchards had been followed,
 the year 1901 would have witness
 ed the sale of hundreds of thou Bands more bushels of fruit than sWas sold.
 It.was ourpleasure to be present
 at the Fayetteville meeting dur < ing the three days session and

chard, or who contemplate setting one were not present. While the reading of horticultural journals are Indispensable to the success ful orchardist, yet there is noth- ing that will give him lasting and impressive ideas as will the com- ing in contact with the men who have made horticulture a success.
 What a horticulturist means by success is being able to make money out of the business. To do this he must not rely on his own ideas of what ought to make i a success, but adopt the modern proverb that ''nothing succeeds like success"
 It would take pages for us to even give a synopsis of the many valuable papers that were read before the society; but just here we will state, however, that suf- ficient money was raised to have the papers printed in book form which will be for free distribution.
 Putting what we learned in a nut shell, which we think would be of especial benefit to Carroll county commercial orchardists is: Select clay subsoil ground, having an east or northeast slope never a western slope. Re- move all stumps as far as pos sible, plant the Ben Davis and cultivate the year around. Ifyou age successful in producing a l g8od healthy tree you will also have learned enough to enable you to ward off disease and pro- duce the big red apple that has made Arkansas famous trough out the civilized world, and be assured that so long as people have stomachs and stomachs have appetites, you will have all i the money you need to relieve the cares of life and have something to contribute to the happiness of others.
 The meeting next year at Green Forest will be of more than usual importance. During this time the l leoislature will be in session and it is already proposed that an able committee be selectes l1 s meeting to go before the sfsla- ture asking that needed legisla- ton to encourage horticulture be enacted. that sufficient amount of money be appropriated for the printing and distribution of the papers and discussions of the annual meetings. Other states in the line of progress are doing this and why not Arkansas?
 ! Another very important matter that will come before this meet ing is preparing for the horticul- tural exhibit of Arkansas at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition that opens at St. Louis in May i 1903.
 This will certainly give Green Forest an opportunity that she should not lose sight of. The horticultural societies of the county should go to work right now to make a good showing and the fact that there would be no expense fer them to make an .ex- hibit ought to enable them to be ready to make display here that will head the procession at St. Louis, and advertise this section

EDITOR TRIBUNE: Mrs. Fannie VoWell, wife of James Vowell, :, died on Jan. 3, 1902. She was taken sick June IF, last year, with fever which run into con- sumption. She was taken to Sulphur Springs, Tex, and stay ed there six weeks and was brought back home just in time to die. She was taken worse Christmas morning. We sent a dispatch for her mother, Mrs. Chaney of Rule, Ark, who reached us before death came.
 Mother said the day she died she was going home to Jesus and calling us one by one up to her dying bed, she kissed us good bye. She said to grandma : "Good bye, ma; tell all my broth : CTS and sisters good bye, and tell Richard I wanted to see him so bad. 1 want my children all to meet me in heaven. She said s" Papa be good to the children swhen lam gone.'' She leaves six children to mourn her loss. She was a member of the Christian church.

mel deep into the side of hill on a
farm near Lansing, Kan. Mr. Long
CHANGED to hear of the finding of the
skull and went to Lansing. If the
opinion of Curator Long and Prof.
Williston is correct, as they feel as
suredl it is, the Lansing skull" for the
first time offers tangible proof of the
existence of prehistoric man in North
America. In Europe several prehis-
tor1c skulls have been found, but this
is the first to be- found in America.
The Lansing skull was found deep
under welldefned strata of earth and
rock, and was Embedded in what is
called river loess. This prehistoric
man was probably a contemporary
of the mastodon and giant sloth.
The photograph does not give an
adequate idea of the peculiarities of
the perceptive faculties. The fore
head slopes back immediately from
the eyes, and there is practically no
forehead. Over the eyes, however,
are well-developed ridges, which, are
taken to denote that the perceptive
faculties were considerable. The back
of the skull, as seem in the illustration,
is almost abnormally developed, and
there the skull is very thick. Pieces
of stone are attached to and imbedded
in the skull, and those pieces Of stone
are Identified with those found at
tached to the bones of mastodons.
The cracks seen in the skull were
caused by the workmen who found it,
for they attached no Importance to
the find and allowed several heavy
boxes to fail upon it, breaking it into
half dozen pieces. Curator Long has
copyrighted the Photographs.

the rain water from the projecting
caves, but closer inspection shows
that the rain spout is turned away
from it, and it is not intended to
serve eny practical purpose, but is
simply preserved as treasured relic.
In giving it a position of honor,
where it will attract the attention of
the visitor soon after entering the
famous gardens, the place has been
carefully chosen. For although it
had been taken from the old wen
which, perhaps, seemed a more ap-
propriate place for it, where it stood

river front of the Bartram house.
Only a few yards away in the long

Dor, overlooking the shining stretch
of Schuyllkill.
Close by this mammoth stone basin
