Hon. W. G. Whipplo Of Little
Rock, a representative of the
regular republicans spoke here
Tuesday and only q small crowd
was at the court house to hear
him, probably not over half a
dozen republicans being in the
audience Mr., Whipplo launched
tout on national affairs and dis
cusssd trusts, the tariff, imperial
ism, and other issues, in all Of
which he upheld the attitude Of

Coming down to state affairs,
COL Whipple proceeded to pour a
few yoleys into the insurgents.
He declared Auten and his crowd
were pje-hunters and were try
ing to disrupt the republican par

charges about postoificos being
sold are flat lies" said he in a
bold, dramatic way lie defend
ed Powell Clayton as the best
thing that ever happened and
said no one could point to tar,

not. Col Whipplo surprised his
small audience by declaring that
the period Of reconstruction in
Arkansas was a time of progress
for the people, He said there

some more Of his hearers, who
thought, and in fact know, that
there would have been no ku-kIuX

militia. The speaker declared
that Arkansas was a grand state
in resources but that that the
democrats did not know how to

AUTEN ARID WHPPLE
These Two Republicans Make Addresses
in Evening Shade.

According to appointment,
Hon. fl. +. Auten of Little Rock,
one of the leaders OF the insurg-
ent republicans in Arkansas, ad-
dressed a large crowd atthe court
house last Friday. A good num-
Der of republicans were in the
audience and gave Mr., Auten re-
Deated cheers as he warmed up
TO the subject of the rottenness
Of the present leaders Of the re-
publican party IN the state. Mr.
Au,en discussed republicanism
in general for d few moments at
the beginning of hia address, and
then got down to state matters,
and the way ne warmed Clayton,
.Rcmmel, Whipple, ct al was a
caution. lie told Of the charges
which he had preferred against
Kennel and Cooper before Presi-
dent Roosevelt, and of the re-
moyal Of these two federal Office
holders by the president on no
| less a charge than boodling and
corruption. The speaker de-
nouncod Clayton and Remmel as
! bosses, and men who used their
Influence for purposes Of fnan-
cial gain to themselves by means
of corrupt practices. He told Of
numerousp posJoli2os, among them
RusseIlyille, Pine Bluff, Mann
moth Spring, Rose Bud and oth-
ers that had been secured to GER
tain applicants by the republican
leaders with the agreement that
the successful applicant should
divide his salary yearly with some
pet Of the bosses. He also told
Of Il. l.. Rommol drawing S500.a
year out Of the salary Of Henry
NJ. Cooper.
Mr., Auten's charges against the
republican leaders, who have 50
long controlled the party in Ar
kansas, and which are too nu-
merous to mention, he said are all

Teib has pSenator Jones III
ma for a pS on the commiss-
ion we hope the president will
not change his mind, The Ca
zette has said from the start that
if Senator Jones is the only citi'
zen of Arkansas who has a
chance to be a member of the
canal commission the Gazette
hopes he will get the place.
1t is true that if Senator Jones
shall be appointed the fact will
be recalled that he voted for the
Panama route against the great
majority Of the Democratic sena-
tors. 1t is also true that the re-
ported aid Senators Spooner and
Hanna are giving Senator Jones
toward securing for him a place
on the commission will be used
against Mr.. Jones by his political
opponents. But we do not be-
lieve Senator Jones entered into
even an unwritten or implied
agreement that he was 10 vote for
the Panama route in considera-
ton of getting a place on the
commission, Such a thing is
not to be considered.
1t is true that some persons will
make the point that a senator
should not be appointed to a
body that his vote has helped to
create. But it is also true that q
senator should not be chosen to
do part of the work of building
the Panama canal il his heart is
set on the building Of the Nicara-
qua canal.
We are for Arkansas against
the world.-Gazette.

A certain George was once swinging

rod with only one hand, while with
the other he waved a handkerchief for

for George, disastrous, both legs be-

about In clumsy "boots," taking a
nine-inch step, but he was very much
subdued for n long time, and quite I'M

pened to be stamping along the depot
platform when n passenger train came
in; it conjdred up fascinating recol-
leciions. He looked down Mt his poor
manned stumps and swore; he looked

The succession OF the new earl Of
Stamford recalls one OF the most re.
cent romarces of the peerage, says the
New York Tribune. How far away he
was removed from the direct line Is
shown by the fact that. whereas he Is
the ninth carl, his father. Rev. William
Grey, was the grcat-grandson of the
fourth earl The last Lord Stamford
was nm eccentric character. who never
took his scat ut Westminster. but lived
for 40 years in South Africa, where
he married II Zulu belle and became
practically n Zulu himself. At his
death the opponents Df the hereditary
house were pleased nj the prospect
of a hnif-castc, wooliy.headed peer
presenting himself to the lord chm.
%cellor. but the committee Of privilege
found the rightful heir In William
Grey, n native Of Newfoundland, and
professor Of classics and philosophy
in COdrington college. ~liarbadoes.
The present LORD stamford Is best
known for his religious and phiIan-
throplc activities. lie belongs to the
order Of diocesan readers under the
Jurisdiction Of the bishop of London,
