SENATOR Senator Clarke's silence
CLARkE'S in the present subern
SILENCE. torial campaign has been
frequently commented up
ON by the people and the newspapers
generally. 1t has been thought some
! what strange that the senator has not
uttered a word in behalf of Coy. Davis,
VINO so earnestly supported Clarke in
his race against Senator Jones. The
only explanation of Clarkes silence
the Graphic has seen is from the
Jonesboro Enterprise, which ardently
supported Clarke, and we suppose the
Enterprise speaks by the card. 1t
says
Some of his enemies are as
sailing Senator Clarke, accusing him
of treachery, because he does not
come to the rescue Of Jeff Davis in his
candidacy for the third term. The
Enterprise does not profess to know it
all, but we do profess to know a thing
of two, and we know that Clarke is
NO traitor. and that he is due Dayi>
nothing Even Davis support ot
Clarke was distasteful to Clarke, and
he came near asking him to leave his
campaign alone. There is not and
never has been any combine between
Davis and Clarke. And what is more,
Gov. Davis never did like Clarke nor
did Clarke ever like DAVIS. Davis sup
ported Clarke in order to play even
with Senator Jones, because he de-
spised the old senator He therefore
voted and worked for Clarke not be-
cause he liked him. but because he
dislked Senator Jones. Such loyalty
and Friendship as that deserves no

LABOR UNIONS
AND
THE MlLlTI.%.


AND the labor unions to
THE MILITIA. the national guard,
commonly termed
state militia. is one that is beginning
to attract serious attention among the
thinking people of the country. In
Chicago the labor unions boycotted
certain celebration because several
companies of the Illinois state guard
were invited to participate in the pa
rade. In Pine Bluff it is alleged that
a member of the local military com
pany was threatened with expulsion
from the union to which he belonged
unless he resigned from the company.
Among the reasons stated for this an
tagonism to the militia, and the perse-
cution of it's members. is that the
military companies are subject to call
to suppress riots, strikes, etc, anG
that in so doing he may be called upon
to shoot down his fellowmen. This
argument has been advanced many
times.
1t is not the intention of the Graphic
to say anything to the detriment OF
the labor unions. for we have no OBJ
lection to them, and the paper is print
ed by union men. With the union label
at it's masthead But the labor unions
are making a serious mistake in refus-
ing to fellowship with militi2man.
The belief that the citizen soldier is
subject to call to suppress strikes
is erroneous The state troops have
never heen-called- Quito -Snppress- A
strike and never will be as long as
the United States remains republic.
On the other hand, it is the sworn
duty of the soldier to be ready at all
times to protect public or private
property in case of riots. The home
of the laboring man is just as sacred
to him as the factory of the capitalist.
The rights of the employe will be re-
spected by him just as much as the
rights of the employer All are rec
ognized as citizens living under the
constitution which all are sworn to
obey and uphold. Then, why shoulu
the laboring man think that he can
burn the mill of his employer and not
be checked by the officers of the law
any more than the capitalist can set
fire TO the laboring mans home and
not be punished? In one case the body
OF men form into mob and start a
riot; in the other case. the offender s
an incendiary.
A sheriff forms his posse OF citizens
to capture a murderer-the military
company is called upon to prevent
wholesale murder and destruction.
The law does not recognize the right
Of body of men to do what one man
is not allowed to do, for all are free
and equal under the law.

Pearson's Magazine for January gives
an interesting sketch Of the Stockholm
mid-winter race.
After a drive of half an hour or SO you
find yourself approaching the race course,
marked by ratings and flags. From a dis

appear like little black ants crawling over

a. comfortless, shed-like erection Of wood,
with seats in tiers, and in the center Of
the front row special seats for the royal
party. In front of the stand is the win
ming post. About the ratings here the
crowd is naturally most dense.
The course is wide and roomy; a steep
ish jump In front of the principal stand
occupies only a portion Of the width, leav-
| ing plenty Of room for run home on the
level.

Is BETTER THAN BOXING
Professional Football Game Delights
the Sporting Fraternity Of Goth
anl-Half a Dozen Fights.

One Of the best football games ever seen
within the confines Of Gotham town took
place at Madison Square Garden last
night. The game in question was between
the burly representatives of Syracuse and
the equally husky eleven of this city. The
game was fiercely, scientifically and pu-
gilistically played and was won on it's
merits by the small score OF to by
the upstate aggregation.
At one time it seemed certainty that
the contest would degenerate into free
! fight, but the catastrophe was ayerted by
the personal bravery Of the officials and
the action Of several cool heads, who
pinned the arms of the belligerents to
their strenuous sides. 49, - .,,s- -.
| A thrill Of horror swept through the
building whom doughty little Stehle, one
Of the New York ends, had the audacity
to plant a stinging upper cut on the Ian
tern jaw Of that gigantic Indian, Bemls
Pierce. The Indian gave a grunt that
was plainly heard above the din and
started to cut short the life Of Stehle.
Big Jack Wright and half dozen other
big ones Immediately grabbed Pierce and
held him tight until he realized that 1t
was all in the game. Then Pierce re-
sumed playing in his usual phlegmatic
way, but he kept a sharp eye on stehle for
the rest Of the contest. -
| The first half was a bit tedious There
was considerable fumbling, and neither
side could make consecutive gains. The
second half, however, proved highly en-
PERTAINING, especially to the former pat
rons Of pugilistic exhibitions. =
| So fierce was the struggle in the last
five minutes of the contest, when the New
York eleven was making a desperate eff
fort to even up the score, that 1t seemed
as il some one must surely be killed. Timid
spectators heaved a great sigh Of relief
when it was all over, and voted it miles

Chicago's coach threw cold water upon
the hopes Of many western athletes and
followers Of football by saying there was
very little probability of q game between
Chicago and Yale next autumn. He de-
clared he had not been near Yale on his
eastern trip, and that he had not even
entered into negotiations with Yale or any
eastern college for a football game. '-~
II would very much like to see a game
arranged between Michigan and Yale, y
he said, "or between any western team
and one Of the big eastern elevens. How
ever. it does not seem likely that game
will be arranged for some time to come.
1.-THE trouble is that the eastern people
do not want to play western teams. They
think they are far away and ahead of the
west in athletics, and they probably are
ahead on the whole. and therefore they
do not see any advantage to be gained
by competing with western elevens.'
