After his terrific indictment of cor
ruptionists in his own administration
this is what he has just said in his let
ter of acceptance;
1--WE base our appeal upon what we
have done and are doing, upon our rec
ord Of administration and legislation
during the last seven years in which
we have haG complete control of the
government WE INTEND IN THE
FUTURE TO CARRY ON THE GOV
ERNMENT IN THE SAME WAY
THAT WE HAVE CARRIED IT ON
IN THE PAST
How did the administration proceed
to cut all the awful, disgraceful, de-
grading corruption to which the Presi-
dent pointed the finger OF righteous
Scorn in the departments?
Just two or three offenders were In
diCted. Not a single criminal in the de-
partments has gone TO any Jail. Not
one of them has ever been punished.
Yet in these departments, according to
President Roosevelt himself, were men
guilty of frauds. foryeries perjuries
and shameless briberies."
He went after these rascals as he
did after the trusts. He quit as soon
as he began, as soon as the pursuit of
rascality had the appearance of sue
cess.
Was 1t am quality of mercy which
caused Mr.. Roosevelt to suspend the
cause of justice, or was it because he
was a candidate for President:

WORTH THEM ALL.
Trust Question Trnnscends All Othcr
Issues Ia Importance.

John a. Wlston, OF Lansing (MlchJ.
tx. President OF the Nj ..igan knights
of the Grip. has this to say;
"The trust question is worth all tho
other issues ten times over. Travelling
men are pushing that issue for all 1t
Is worth. Particularly is this true In
New York and Indiana. Judge Par.
krr's decisions are splendid record
against the trusts. In the minds OF
lie masses IL Is the paramount Issue.
The best workers outside OF the retail
dealers aud commercial travellers Tor
Parker and Davis are the women.
They all understand the trust question,
ri ii not necessary TO tell them how
lie trusts have put up prices OF almost
everything and increased the cost OF
living one-third.'

WIFE CAUSED
 HUSBANDS ARREST.
Had Sued for Divorce, Then Has Him Arrested for Assault
 and Battery.

Pine Bluff, March '. Sam l.. Hart, a well known young man of this city, was arrested Sun day afternoon on the charge of assault and battery, on a warrant sworn out by his wife, Mrs. Bessie Hart. The case was tried in Justice Stewards court this morning and Hart was fined $50 had costs, amounting to $71.25. He failed to make bond or pay the fine and is now cnnfned in the county jail. He will be given time to make a bond, but if he does not do so will be sent to the county farm. Mrs. Hart and her father, MT. Dodge, appeared as witnesses against Hart.
 Mrs. Hart testified that her husband became angry at her brother, and when she attempted to interfere, grabbed her throat and cruelty choked her. The officers, when they attempted to arrest Hart, met with resistance and one was struck in the face, 
 but no additional charge was filled for resisting arrest, About two months ago Mrs. Hart filed suit for divorce against Iher husband, alleging non-sup- bort and cruel treatment. Hart Twas then working at Forrest City, lbut about three weeks ago came Ito Pine Bluff, and the divorce |suit was dropped. Since that time he has been living with his lfather-in-law.

SHOP MEN FOR WOOD.


 Last Saturday the employees of the car department of the Iron Mountain shops, says the Little Rock Democrat, put up a ballot box at the tinekeeper's office with the request that each em- ploye in this department cast a ballot indicative of his choice of candidates for various offices. Yesterday the vote was can vassed with the result that Judge Wood had received an over whelming majority of the votes cast for governor. The voting was arranged for by and for the employees of this department alone, and is a correct indication of the sentiment of the men as to the gubernatorial candidates. There is no doubt that the shops, as well as Pulaski county, will line up with a good majority for Judge Wood.

JUDGE w. l.. MOOSE.

Judge w. l.. Moose of Morrill, lton. candidate for associate jus ltice of the supreme court, was lin the city Saturday and made .hnany friends among our citizens. Judge Moose, now serving his ssecond term as circuit judge of |the Fifth district, is in the prime
 bf life, enjoying the most vigor-
 bus health and capable from a kh.Acal as well as mental view ApoiiE of discharging all the null titudinous duties that would be Required of him in the position 5he seeks.
 Furthermore, he is a man of great native ability, a lawyer thoroughly versed in the laws of the state, just in his decisions, and should he be elected to the position he seeks he would fill it with honor to himself and the en-
 tire people of the state.
 Judge Moose is widely known to the people of Arkansas, hav- ing served in the state senate Tn the sessions of 1895 and 1897. Of The latter session it will be re-
 called that he was president of
 that body, and as such rendered
 distinguished services. - Malvern
