THE postal authorities at Wash ington have fixed a penalty of S200 on the person taking mail out of the postoffice other than their own. All postmasters are liable to make mistake occa- sionally and get mail into the wrong boxes, and the law is that the people must look at the mail before leaving the office. And if they have other mail than their own, it must be returned at once to the postmaster. This includes n ewspapers as we'll as letters.

REPORTS from the trea sury department make it clear that whether prices are high or low there is more money in circulation today than ever before in the history of the country. An equal distribution of all the money in circulation, among every man, woman and child would give to each the sum of S31.06. The highest per capita circulation of any time previous was on May 1, when it amounted to $ 31 .O2.

 x.CoNFEDERATE PENSIONS.
 The presentlaw pensioning the indigent ex-confederate soldier, and his widow, was intended as a partial recognition of his services in behalf of his state in Che great civil war. concede that this IS right, that if a Confederate soldier made an honorable record, and who, now, from wounds received in the war, or from old age is un- able to make a living, do not think he should be sent to the poor house; the generosity of a foe in arms should not allow that, but. fellow citizens, I do think he should receive 100 cents on the dollar of the small pittance that IS allowed him. Last year he only received AS cents on the dollar and the report of the board just issued shows that he will receive less amount this year. The saving of the expense of separate elections alone would make this deficit good many times over.
 OTHER NEEDED REFORMS.
 There are many reforms in the matter of county expenses that could be made, such as serving election judges, petit and grand jurors and like processes by mail The government serves her jurors by mail and we never hear any complaints on account of the inefficiency of the service. The board of commissioners of ac- counts at cost of S150 to S2O0 annually could be dispensed with entirely and the duties of that board be imposed upon the county judge, who from the very nature of his office would be as equally capable of performing that duty as the board of com- missioners. So long as the careless officer knows that he is going to be gently reminded of his irregularities, shortages and the like, just that long will he wait and take chances on the board passing the matter al-

FIRE INSURANCE.

Arkansas needs better laws regulating the organization and operation of fire insurance com panies. Under the present law it is possible, and seemingly most practicable for an ex- state official and a few real estate brokers to organize a mutual fire insurance company, file straw bond and send out irresponsible agents over tl,e state to rob the people by writing pretended in surance on their premises. That the people are thus being inn posed upon is demonstrated al- most every week all over this part of the state, and 1 take it from the numerous suits that are being filed in other parts of the state that the same conditions prevail all over the state. It is hard to measure such an evil as this, for thousands of people carry these policies as protection, who suf- fer no loss and hence are not aware of the fact that should they suffer loss they would be unable to collect. We sometimes hear about drastic measures be- ing needed. Certainly Arkansas needs that kind of a fire insurance law that would drive every one of these Irresponsible wild -cat companies out of business.
 A BOARD OF PARDON ANDA REFORM
 SCHOOL.
 1 believe Arkansas needs a state board of pardons and re- form school. It seems to me that the need of these are so self-evi- dent as not to admit of argument. To place the pardoning power in the hands of a busy governor, giving him, alone, the right to set aside the verdict of our juries will grow to be an evil in any state. For boys to be sentenced to term in the penitentiary along with the hardened criminals is a travesty upon civilization. i At our last term of court at Besryyii!e 15-year old boy was sen&eaced to- one year in the

CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.

certainly no state has more to gain by building good roads than has Arkansas. The public road laws as they now stand on our statute book is a very compli- cated affair. It indeed takes a lawyer to tell just what the law is for any particular section of the state.
 Had you thought about it? More than two-t thirds of the revenue that should accrue to the public roads is used for chairi- table and other purposes. For instance, every man, who for age or any cause is partially physic- ally incapable for manual labor, though he may be worth thou sands of dollars, is excused from contributing one cent toward making a good road for him to travel over. The school director is paid for doing the duties of his office at the expense of our pulp lie roads. By the time other things are eliminated the burden of keeping up such roads as we have falls upon a few men and eighteen year-old school boys. I favor such a complete revision of our road laws, that capital will share it's prorata along with these. Nothing is so hindering desirable immigration and the advent of capital and the material develop ment of the state than is the pres ent condition of our public high ways.

RUSSIA'S SPLENDOR.

Under the title of 1.-THE Splendor of
the Wealthy Russians, Thorndike
Cotton, IN The Twentieth Century
Home" for October, gives a most
interesting account of the court OF
Russia, whose magnifcence is the
wonder of the century. No people on
earth are so extravagant. so lavish,
so imperially magnificent, as the high
class Russians. Their palaces are
The most superb In the world, their
jewels the most costly, their dress
the most lavish and ornate. A court
function in Russia surpasses in pomp
and grandeur anything of its kind
In the world. No Western magma
tion can picture the splendnr of the
jewels, the colossal supsrfluity Of DIS
play, which the wealth of generations
of European mobiles, the servillty of
numberless sultans, Asiatic kings and
potentates, have heaped at the feet
of the CzaI AM Russia. All this, Of
course, does not apply to the common
people, large numbers of whom are
sunk in poverty and ignorance. The
