thing about some
OF the cattle who infest the ArkaSas S
legislature at every session. Comment
ing on a St Louis Republic editorial
concerning the corruption in the re-
cent session of the Missouri legislature
the Post says that the Republic says
and INSCRIPTIONS sandbaggers are con-
stantly introducing or threatening to
introduce bills which have some spe
cious plausibility on the surface anA
blackmail underneath as their pur-
pose"
And that is not the whole Or the
worst phase of the situation. for, as the
Republic further remarks, when
measure is presented which is honest,
ly designed to regulate special inter
ests for the benefit of the public, these
rascals take advantage of the occasion
to threaten and sell out, the fate of
the honest measure being determined
along the same lines as if it were pure
sandbagging.
What the Post and the Republic as
sert to be true in the case of the
Missouri legislature is also charged
to be true Of the Arkansas legislatures
at nearly every session. and the charge
is not wholly without foundation. In
every legislature there are unscrupu-
lous men who introduce measures for
no other purpose than to bleed corpOr-
ations which would be injured by the
proposed law These legislators have
no intention of pushing their measures
to final passage, if the corporations
will submit to the bleeding process.
Some of the corporations have grown
tired of it, and will no longer put up
bribe money, and whenever all of them
quit it the "sandbaggers' will go out
OF business and cease seeking elec-
tion to the legislature.

Pennant Practically Settled.

by winning the Two games from Pine
Bluff yesterday, Uncle Bob Pender
PRACTICALLY settled the question
as to Who will win the pen
nant in the Cotton States
league. Baton Rouge is now three
whole games ahead Of Vicksburg. and
- only thirty games are yet to be
played his team will have TO take
q w6eful slump in order to lose out.
When asked the secret of pennant-
winning MI Pender gives out some
interesting points. In the first place.
he says thai a team Of individual stars

posed Of ball players, but they do not
nave to be the best players in their
several positions. Team work. general
good fellowship between manager and
players and batting are the essential
features. \ player who makes three
errors and three hits in a game is
a much better winner than q player
who makes neither errors nor hits Mr.
Pender says he places a premium on
the batters. though they must be able

Probably the reason Baton Rouge and
Vicksburg have run SO close race
for the hOnors is that on each team
the mana cement is strict about drink
ing and the hours the players keep
when Off duty. While at home or
abroad, Pender and Earle both stay

furthermore. Pender makes it point
never to call down a player on the field
for making misplay. He takes it
for granted that they do the best
they can. His lacking up is done
privately.

No other living man has served so

years in the Senate, give him record
.of continuous service Of thirty-eight

and his face is rosy and plump as any
girls. While he has been a hard work
er and a fairly good liver, his life has
heen an even one, and he has not al
lowed the chase for the dollar nor the
ambitions of politics to contract ana
distort his soul. Always well dressed
he makes you think of a New York

Stole Northport SmeIter Gold.

Rossland, B. C.-Peter Swanson a
saloonkeeper from Northport, Wash,
was arrested here on the charge Of
having stolen goods in his possession.
His arrest is the outcome of a cam
paign against a ring of thieves who
have been stealing matte from the
Northport smelter for some time. The
matte is valued at from $3.50 to $1,000
per pound, and it is an easy matter
for men about the works to put a
pound or two in their pockets. This
has been done and the swag traded
at saloons about Northport until the
practice became notorious.
Swanson's place was a well known
fence for stolen matte, and when Swan
son came to Rossland he had about
100 pounds of the stuff, valued at $1,000
in his possession. John S. Ingram
chief of police, made the arrest, and
Swanson was promptly arrained on a
charge of having stolen goods in his
possession. He pleaded guilty to the
charge. The maximum penalty is Ia
years Imprisonment. He implicated
others.

Fitz Smashed Mr.. Ball.

Anaconda, Mont.-With a left arm
hook Robert Fitzsimmons floored his
former manager, Clark Ball, in the lob
by of the Thornton hotel a few min
utes after l o'clock in the morning.
The blow struck Ball suarely on the
point of the jaw and he was knocked
against a corner of the desk at the end
of the counter. His head came in VIC
lent contact with sharp corner and
a laceration resulted. In another frac-
ton of a second Ball was PROSTATE
and out. He was revived in a few sec
onds and his bleeding head bathed.
He was not seriously injured and was
apparently as well as ever within 10
minutes after the blow was struck.
The trouble was precipitated by the
fact that Ball has severed his connec-
ton with the Jeffries- Fitzsimmons
combination and signed a contract
with Jack Munroe whereby the local
miner, who had stood before Jeffries
for four rounds a week ago Saturday
night is to be the star attraction of an
athletic show managed by the former
manager of 'Lanky Bob" When the
men met tonight there was some
wrangling and Ball called Fitzsimmons
liar. Then the blow was struck.

when his interment took place in Sax

warrior was buried, seated upright on

place of Lord Dacre the pick of a dig
