every gambling house there has been

city election was won on the grounds
that the town should be run wide open,

idea. The opposition did not close the
fight when the polls closed, however,
and have discovered that II IL n penal

officials 10 permit gambling IN the In

by imposing u monthly fine. The ex-
mayor Of Checotah has been indicted by
the federal grand jury, and the mayor

Visitors to the Fort Smith fair and

to see the most popular man of the ma
ton In the person Of Admiral Winfield
Schley, who will be guest Of the
city and Of every American citizen
within the city and of everyone who
may visit the city on the 10Th and 10Th
Of October.
A committee composed Of President
Owen Kennedy, representing the Street
Fair association, DR.. 3 Hatchett, repre-
senting the Knights Templar, and W.
r. Martin, representing the city Of Fort
Smith, took dinner with Admiral Schley
at the Albemarle hotel, New York, on
Thursday, July nth, and extended to
him beautifully engrossed invitations to
be present during the entire street fair
or on such days as might best suit his
convenience, and he elected to make
the visit on the days mentioned.
The entire nation Is ablaze with I'D.
miration for the hero Of Santiago, who
WAS not only manly and brave during
the moment of peril, but was equally
manly and brave under aspersion cast
upon him by envious souls too small to
accord him the honor due him. That
Admiral Schley should visit Fort Smith
is concession to the patriotic sentiment
which has always actuated this section
of country in the controversy which
threatened to rob hero of his we'll
earned laurels. There will be public
reception and Admiral Schley will be
presented with a magnificent sword by
the Knights Templar.

SENATOR JAMES X. JONES. chairman
OF the Democratic national committee,
declares that the results OF the present
congress have not met the expectations
of the country. He points out that
when congress assembled there WAS u
strong feeling throughout the country
In favor of some reduction Of tariff tax
alton. Congressman Babcock and other
Republican leaders In the West came to
Washington with loud declarations In
favor Of a bill reducing the tariff. IAN
efforts In this direction, - says Senator
Jones, have been smothered and the
session IL closed without any carrying
out of the promise made to Cuba Z"
Senator Jones also points out that the
trust question has also been passed over
without congressional action. He thinks
Democrats. In the light OF the results
Of this congressional session, have op.
portunities TO make gains In the West
during the coming election. He thinks
,, that there may be also some surprises
In other sections. --Commouer.

The Sidewalk Question stu Up.

Inc Sidewalk QuobtIon StIU Sp'
There Ia another matter the council.
men should keep In mind when It comes
TO vote on the proposed ordinance for
compelling the laying Of specified side.
walks In Van Buren,, and that IL that II
compelled TO lay walks the owners OF
the property have q right to demand
that the street be cut to established
grade. Where IL the money for such
to come from, when the city's expendi.
lures already exceed its incomeY We
understand the committee In charge
OF the ordinance has hxed on q walk
costing $25 for 30 feet. Now 1t would
bs a manifest injustice to compel any
one TO put down a walk at an expense
of from $25 to, In many cases, 800 and
more and then run the chance Of some
future council ordering them to put
the walk TO grade. Then, also, why
make such Nm expensive walk ~ that
compulsory, when good walk can be-
put down made from coal cinders and
sand that will answer every purpose,
and which could be done ut an expense
Of not more than couple Of dollars for
a lot front. Walks Of this nature the
city could construct herself, were any
persons found unable TO put down them
selves.
