Hannah For 1904.

The chairman Of the republican
state committee for Alabama has
declared in an interview that he
is in favor of Mark Hanna for
the republican nomination in
1904. This Alabama republican
declares that the republicans Of
the south known as the silly
whites" are prepared to make an
organized fight upon Mr.. Roose-
welt and tnat they have chosen
Mark Hanna as their candidate.
In spite Of the disclaimers made
by Mr.. Hanna, great many peo-
pie have believed that he has
privately encouraged the cultiva-
ton of the Hanna boom and there
are many indications that after
all Mr.. Roosevelt will not have a
walk-away in the republican

a TERRIFIC ARRAIGEMENT

In his speech at Little Rock
Attorney General Murphy made
at terrific arraignment Of Gov.
Davis. Following are the con-
GLIDING words of his address:
81 arraign him before you, sena-
tors and representatives, as |
shall arraign him publicly before
all the people Of Arkansas.
81 arraign him as a man not
worthy of your confidence, and
unfit for the longer occupancy Of
the gubernator;aI chair Of your
state.
81 arraign him as destitute
alike of honor and Of pride.
"Take him, deal with him as
justice requires, without favor,
but as the interest Of your state,
as Justice and as truth require
you to do. Prove loyal where
your duty rests, pull the cord and
let the consequences fall where
they may. Investigate his do
ings. If not satisfied with what
he has done as governor-the
crimes he has committed there,
then 20, If you will, into his acts
as attorney general, and if there
is nothing in the way Of impeach-
ment when you get to that office,
you will find that he spent over
81 800 in TWO years. | tell you
for an occupancy of that length
of time it is impossible to spend
more than one-fifth of what he
has.
Everywhere in his official
course you will find that he has
dealt with the money placed at
his disposal for the conduct Of
the states affairs as though itwere
his OWL You have the facts; it
remains what will you do with
the facts before you? Will you
come up to the measure of man.

TIE COUNTRY EDITOR.

The country editor does more
f for less than other member OF his |
community. He is kind OF |
pack horse for all the troubles
ard the enterprises Of his town.
He very often has to take out
his advertising bills in trade and
exchange job work for groceries. |
| He is required to mention every
thing good that everybody does
and to be blind to the faults of
the community.
/ If he is a wide-awake newspa-
per man, and essays to publish
all the news without fear or favor,
he is accused of knowing too
much; charged with being stir
rer-up of strife, and people
threaten to shoot him full of holes.
If, on the other hand, he happens
to be endowed by nature with a
pacific disposition and no delight
to pass away the time walking
around like & world power in a
state Of constant preparedness
for war and does not publish the
truth, he is not particularly
molested bat people say that he
is a mossback, and back number,
and there is nothing in his paper.
II he sends a bill for the paper
in advance he is accused Of
having committed an outrage by
some people; and if he allows
the bill to run on the party in
arrears, will in nine cases out Of
ten inform him that he doesn't
remember having ordered the
paper, that he didn't get it re-
gularly, and that he didn't want
it anyway.
He has to aid all sorts Of elee-
mosynary institutions free of
charge or be accused of being
stingy, and when he takes ad-
yertisements from business en-
terprises which are Objectionable
to good folks, he gets a few hot
roa5t5 fresh from the fiery griddle
of that able statesmen and de-
fender of the faith who sometimes
signs himself Law and Order.
He is constantly roasted by en-
terpTising merchants for not
getting out mammoth edition
each week advertising the
splendid resources Of the town,
and when he goes to those mer-
chants to solicit a small display
add, he is informed by them that
advertising does not,pay.
We could go on enumerasing
the vicissitudes of the country
editor until we had exhausted
columns Of space and scores of
readers. However, country
journalism has its bright side,
which the man who has left it to
engage in work 90 the city daily
can well appreciate, There are
in lnany daily newspaper offices
today careworn hearts that are
signing for the secluslon OF a
weekly tripod and many weary
hands thai yearn once more for
the friendly grasp of the old time
friend, the Washington hand
press. We believe a conservative
statement is that the one thing
that is worse than being a country
editor is to be a city editor. The

the weekly frying pan to jump
