fix good admission fee and show him off as an executive curiosity.
 In this way, in addition to the very desirable enhancement of our notoriety, we might raise money enough to build the annex to the insane asylum and the gymnasium to the Arkansas university he claims to be so anxious to have and make q good start on our new state capitol, If we must expend money for this exposition, let us adopt such course as will promise some return.
 When he says he was crazy or had his hand behind him he seeks to leave Us in too much uncertain ty. If he was insane then and is not now he ought to know 1t. If he was then holding his hand be hind him for something to be put into 1t by the brick company he ought to know that. His con scious uncertainty as to which of these situations he was in justities us in thinking it not unreasonable to conclude that he may have been in both. But if he was insane his insanity was of the moral type. and although we have no personal knowledge or specific information as to the particular environ mentso of his involuntary start to the light of day, his extreme care for the safety of his person pre- cludes the idea of any subsequent injury and forces the conclusion that 1t was also of the congential class.
 He had scarcely been inaugu- rated as governor when he began to aseribe this contract to the new members of the penitentiary board. who had nothing to do with its making and to seek every possible opportunity to traduce them on account of 1t. Wherever he could get chance to make stump speech in their absence he charged them with all its alleged evils; and on the 10th of August, 1901. he even went so far as to give a libel ous interview to the StLouis Globe i Democrat. one of the most in i tiuential rebublican newspapers in the United States falsely charging l them with inhumanity in connec- ] tion with 1t, falling little short of murder. when he knew that they had, with his assistance. framed one of the best systems of rules for the humane treatment of con ! yicts ever devised by any board of penitentlarY management.
 Viewing the part of the mes sage under consideration in the
 light of tbe governor ; letter and i stump speeches, what shall we say of Il and its authorl Ordinarily ] it would be called downright ly- l ing, but perhaps it would be bet 1 ter here to call 1t constitutionaIly morbid preyarieation. That it is untrue is undeniable.

HOME-PRINT NS. PATENT.

The Cotton Plant Courieris mis- taken. Ne never said that patent side papers have no reason to eX- ist; but we did say that their so- called news service was nothing to brag about, and we still say so. But exist beautifully describes the career of most patent papers. They, as a rule, never attain any prominence in the world and the people have but little confidence in them; for when publisher adopts patents he thereby adyer- tises the fact that he hasn't enough confidence in his own ability as a newspaper man to attempt to pub fish paper entirely of his own efforts and in his own establish mcnt.
 The editor of Tine Journal began his newspaper career from the ranks of the country newspaper readers and we know whereof we speak when We say that the people on whom depends the success or failHre of a newspaper the sub scribers-are quick to recognize and appreciate the superiority of the all-home-print paper over the one that uses patent insides,
 As to appearance, which our es- teemed confere will not attempt to deny, adds materially to success or failure in the newspaper busi- ness, the Courier virtually admits that the alI-home-print paper has a decided advantage over the one using readY-prints.
 We can name q list of the four teen most prosperous and iniluen- tlal papers ln Northeast Arkansas and in the list arc only two patent papers. The people as d rule, are a pretty good judge of the merits of newspapers and this shows that they are decidedly in favor of the home-print paper.
 But the Courier's assertion that The Journal would contain more reading matter if 1t would adopt patents, Is, of itself, goodeyidence that the Courier man Is mentally unbalanced or is not on speaking terms with the truth.

Consumption is a human weed fourishing best in weak lungs. Like other weeds it's easily destroyed while young; when old, sometimes i'm, possible.
 Strengthen the lungs as you would weak land and the weeds will disappear.
 The best lung fertilizer Is Scotts Emulsion. Salt pork is good too, but 1t is very hard 10 digest.
 The time to treat consump- ton is whep you begin trying 70 h11e 7 1t from yourself, IOthers see 1t, you won't.
 Don't wait until you can't deceive yourself any longer, Begin with the first thought to take Scott's Emulsion. If 1t isn't really consumption SO much the better; you will soon forget 1t and be better for the treatment. If 1t Is consump- tion you can't expect to be cured at once, but if you will begin in time and will be. rigidly regular in your treat ment you will win.
 Scott's Emulsion, fresh air, rest all you can, eat all you can, that's the treatment and that's the best treatment.

LOOK OUT
 For CoIds-La Grippe !

Protect yourself, and don't trust to Providence. Considering the harm done, neglect before and after taking cold is physical crime. You may prevent a cold, or, If too late, you can insure yourself against the "after ef- ects," for there is the greatest danger, by using Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic. Few die from Colds, or La Grippe, or Ca tarrh. They die of the after effects. These diseases all weaken, and to a weakened body come tlocking host of diseases that fasten on weak lungs, heart, stomach, kidneys, and other weak parts that we seldom think of.
 The easiest and best thing to do is to fortify the system so that you will not catch cold, but if too late to do that, then you must see that no lasting in- jury is done. Medical authorities all agree that iron is the fighting element of the blood enabling the system not only to ward of disease, but to fight it after

TAWNEY'S ASPIRATIONS
Minnesota Congressman Wants a
Place on the House Committee
E on Rules.
Erom The Journal Bureau, Colorado Building,

Washington.
Washington. Nov. 6.-No sooner
had Representative Tawney of Min
nesota reached washington than
there was a warming over Of the
old tale that he was anxious for
a. place on the house committee on
rules. There has been so secret in
Minnesota for months as to Mr.. Taw-
ney's ambition in this connection.
Whether or not he will be successful,
nobody but the prospective speaker
knows and he will not tell. The
proposition to increase the rules COM
mittee from five to nine members will
be urged before the republican
caucus but. with what success nobody
knows. If the committee is to have
nine members, Tawney may be one
of them.
There is big difference in Washing
ton, as elsewhere, between what a
man wants and what he can get.
Should Tawney secure this position,
he would also become one of the
potent factors in the house. The rules
committee holds in the hollow of it's
hand the fate of every bill that is pre-
sented to the house. Tawney is on
good terms with Mr.. Cannon, who
may think 1t best to give him a
place on the committee. In the mean
time, Tawney is not exerting any
pressure, or permitting his candidacy
to get beyond the passive stage.

OBJECT TO HIS COLOR
Residents Of Princeton Don't Like colored
Mall Carrier.

Princeton, N. j., Nov. 6--The race issue
has reached here. Yesterday A. B. Davis
colored started in to deliver the mail
on one of the rural free delivery routes
outside of Princeton, but the owners of
boxes along the route are objecting to
their new Sostrnan on account Of his color.
Davis passed his civil service examina,-
tons and received his appointment over
the heads of several white applicants on
the merits of his standing. There are a
good many negroes in Princeton and the
feeling between the races is none too
friendly.
That Davis should get the appointment
instead of one of the white applicants has
enraged the box owners and about twenty
threaten to withdraw from the route If
Davis Is retained.

A big British ship was SO badly in
jured by being rammed by another

that she had to be beached to prevent
sinking. That is much worse than
the accident to the Massachusetts, off
the coast of Maine. There is some
excuse for running afoul of an I'M

THE SULTANS VICTORY
His Troops Routed the Forces
of the Pretender.
The Victory Is Attributed More to the
Sultan's Bribery Of Tribes Than
to Military Tactics, They De-
sorting the Pretender.

Tangier, Feb 2.-The sultan's troops
have utterly routed the forces of the
Moorish pretender and captured Blu
Hamara himself.
A special courier who arrived Sun.
day after making a record journey
from Fee brought this news. He re-
ports that at daybreak last Thursday
the army OF the sultan. commanded
by the war minister, FL Menebhi, at
tackled the pretender's position and
inflicted n complete defeat on his fol
lowing at the same time capturing Blu
Hamara.
Another runner who has arrived
here from Fee confirms the news OF
the defeat OF the rebels. but says that
the report of the capture of the pre-
tender is Incorrect. He adds that it is
uncertain whether Bu Hamara's body
was among the great number slain.
The sultan's victory was absolute. al
most the entire following OF the pre-
tender being either slain or captured.
His camp. provisions and ammunition
were taken and the artillery which
was lost by the sultan's army in the
battle Of December % was recaptured.
Even if Bu Hamara escaped it is hone
less for him to seek to retrieve his de-
feat rs his claim that he is a saint is
exploded. The details regarding the
battle are meager. but it Is known that
the pretender's camp was surprised
and rushed at dawn.
There is great rejoicings here at the
sultan's victory.
London. Feb. "a dispatch from
Tangier to the Morning Leader men
toned a Circumstantial report current
IN that city that Bu Hamara was
brought to FeZ in q cage and exposed
to public derision. The dispatch adds
that it is impossible to ascertain the
truth. and attributes the sutan's vic
tory more to his bribery Of the tribes
than to military tactics. The bribed
rebels suddenly abandoned the pre-
tenders standard.
