prominent in public and private life in
all sections of the country. Among
them was one from President Roose-
Welt warmly congratulating Senator
Hanna on the splendid victory in Ohio.
Governor ELECT Myron T. Herrick
was also the recipient of hundreds of
similar kilograms.
Senator Hanna, referring to the re-
newed suggestion made in various
quarters to the effect that he is the
logical Republican candidate for the
presidency next year as the result of
the UNPRECEDENTED victory won in Ohio
at the Tuesday election, made this
statement:
1.-The result of the election in Ohio
yesterday in nowise changes my views
in reference to my proposed candidacy
for the presidency, of which position
the public has been fully advised

sufficient to maintain the. safety of the
foreign residents.
The question of the recognition of
Panama's independence entirely depends
on the action of the United States. If
Washington communicates TO the pow
ers that it intends to recognize the in
dependence of Panama it is not likely
that there will be the slightest objec-
ton on the part of Great Britain, while,
according to the views of the diplomat is
here, the other European powers proba-
bly, will quickly follow suit. There has
long been a strong feeling in British Of
fetal circles that it would be an excel
lent arrangement if the United States
good order and the stability OF all the
Central American states. This feeling
is well known to the American diplo-
mats in England.
At the German embassy here a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press was
informed that there was not the faintest
Likelihood that Germany would take any
steps in the matter. If the United States
is satisfied to recognize Panama's indie
pendence, doubtless Germany will cor
daily agree to it.
On all sides the United States para
mount interests and right to deal with
the situation single handed are frankly
recognized by the diplomats, though the
Globe in it's usual anti-American tone,
declares that on account of the proxi-
nifty of the West Indies the British
government should take a hand in the
matter The other afternoon newspa-
pers, however. comment on the correct
ness of the United States attitude and
the reasonableness of anticipating a So
luton of the 1nteroceanic canal problem
from the independence of Panama.

MAY II NEVER RETURN

1t was styled Carnival this
din of the grcat-lunged spielers,
this profusion of fakes, this array
of Canvas, etc, which occupied
Front street las. week.
In truth it was humbug, with
three exceptions, from end to end.
The glass blowers, the Ferris
wheel and the merry go-roupd were
all that was expected and no per.
son was swindled ont of cent by
any one of these attractions; but
the cane racks, the doll racks, the
Niger head, and all the other fea,
teres were of the commonest order
of fakes. In all of these you got
absolutely nothing for your money,
the cigars being beastly and the
jewelry and other trinkets of no
value.
The town Of Forrest City receiv-
ed S3S as lis share of the proceeds
of this miserable congIomeratlon of
fakes, and the community Is abso.
lutely damaged to the amount of
their net receipts.
1t made no business for the mer.
chant, the doctor, the preacher, the
editor, nor any other citizen, and
the presence of such a crowd of
disreputable characters was bound
to have a dcmoralizing effect upon
the community.
When the thing packed up and
left town last Sunday, the town
took in a long breath and heaved
longer sigh of relief and satisfac-
ton and rest.
When it had been packed upon
the cars, the dirt and filth of the
thing was left upon the main thor
oughfareS, and such a fearful sight
was presented to view. The usual
ly Soierably clean streets were lit.
eraAy covered with old papers,
boxes, confetti and rubbish of eve
ry description. presenting the ap.
pearance of a city dumping ground.
