IN reply to THE TRIBUNE con- cerning the St. l.. 6. N. A. road not always making connection with delayed Frisco trains at Seligman, the Harrison Republi- can insists that the public is being outraged by the occasional fail ure of connection and strongly intimates that it's editor knows more about how to run this road for profit than do the gentlemen in whose hands the affairs of the company are entrusted. It may be possible that Editor White would make a success as a rail-
 road operator; it is quite evident he missed his calling when he went into the newspaper buisness.

VERY few of the country news papers in Arkansas will publish saloon and whiskey advertise ments, says the Clarendon Sun. They do not think it right to lend the influence of their publications to institutions which are acknowl- edged to have caused more deaths than all the wars in history. The saloon men pay literally and promptly for all their advertising. yet the conscientious newspaper men turn down propositions from them almost every day. Prob ably no other class of men are so jealous of the public good as publishers of country news papers.

Another Opportunity for Homeseekers
 to HOme-seek.


 The Frisco System again an- nounces that it will sell tickets from St. Louis and Kansas City to points in Oklahoma, Indian Terri tory, Kansas and Texas, at the very low round trip rate of S15. : %. Opportunities for homes in the Southwest are still plentiful, and the best lands are by no means all taken up. Excursion tickets sold at this extremely low rate will be good on any of the Frisco regular trains leaving St. Louis at 2:30 p. m., 8:35 p. m.. and 1O:O0 p. m., October 20, and leaving Kansas City 7:15 p. m., and 11:30 p. m., on the same date. If you are looking to the Southwest for a future home, this excursion of October 20th is an excellent opportunity to in vestigate the country.
 Your own home ticket agent will be able to give you full in- formation as to rates and limits of tickets.

A NEWSPAPER is like man
 because generally it reflects some man-and it should be so judg- ed; largely and on the whole, says a contemporary. No man lives a perfect life; no editor prints a perfect paper. If an ed itor is honest he is bound to of- fend some one every day of his life. If he don't offend some one, the editor is nambypamby and flamby. The same thing is true of the average man. A news paper is bound to make mistakes; {; in getting news it must neces- sarily take hearsay. But in the long run and in the main, day after day and year after year, a paper stands for decency, for the honest thinking and clean living, if it speaks fair for those who are trying to do good and con demns and cheats and low per- sons, that is a good paper.

Day Of Publication Changed.

Hereafter The Advertiser will
be published on Wednesday in
stead of Saturday. The reason
of the change is primarily for the
benefit of the public, as we be-
lieve that where more than one
paper is published in a town, if
one appears in the middle of the
week, it gives them the advantage
of a semiweekly home news ser.
vice; and as it is the aim Of this
paper to do all in it's power for
the advantage and best interests
of the people, we have decided to
make the change.
