a SILLY CONTEMPORARY.

Yesterday the Tribune printed in its
regular city edition the news OF the n0ni-
nation OF Judge Parker Tor president by
1he Democratic national convention. The
Herald passed the news on to an extra
ctiton, thus QepTiVing its regular city

Ior- and requiring them to paw double

JUDGE PARKER's TELEGRAM

. OPTICIANS Of the smaller order
VIII question the wisdom OF
Judge Parker's telegram 10 the ma
tional Democratic convention, but peO-
pie who admire courage and sincerity
VIII have 10 doubt as TO the kind OF
mau-who wrote that message. 1t is so
direct, so unusually straight forward
for a political document that it is worth
reproducing. Here it is:
7 regard tie gold standard as firmly
and irrevoca5iy established. and shall act
accordingly IL the act OF the convention
o. today shall be ratified by The people
As the platform is silent on TIN subject,
nsV views should be made known to the
convention. and IF they prove uns0tis-
factory to the ma i0ritv ] request you
so decline the nomination for me at once
50 that another may be nominated before
aelournment.
Judge Parker's position was unusual
IN that the same majority which nom
mated him had stricken out OF the
plank a declaration which set forth his
views. He could not but think this
majority had misunderstood his posi-
ton and he was unwilling 10 accept a
nomination without a full understand
ing as-t9 his convictions. He might
have waited until his letter Of accep-
lance was written 10 explain his posi-
ton, as MIR. Mckinley did when he
construed the ST. Louis blmetallic plank
10 suit his own views, or he might have
kept silence and let his friends say for
him what his telegram said In other
words he might have made a truce with
his conscience and let his silence be
construed az suited his followers.
Instead Of following a course com
mon with ambitious men in politics.
instead OF being a temporizer and a
coward. he spoke out in time for the
men who had voted fo- him IT. the con-
veution' 10 reconsider their action il
his views did not meet their approval.
No matter whether it was judicious or
not il was the courageous, the right
thing To do; and courage is the one
thing Judge Parker has been accused
OF lacking. His enemies. in and out OF
the Democratic party, have been derid-
ing the Democratic nominee because
he did not insist on talking: they have
accused him of letting others make his
opinions for him. VIII any of these
detractors question Judge Parker's
courage OF sincerity hereafter. Is
there one in thousand Of them who
would have been as brave, as honest
as he was? Is such manliness. sucn
sincerity. such direcness likely 10 lose
him v0tes9
Hardly. The thinking American likes
to find such characteristics in a candi-
date as M Parker showed in his blunt
message It VIII win him votes. it VIII
endear him to everybody who is tired
of evasite politics. and It win give him
a hold upon the affections Of people who
can never know him personally.

a DESERVED COLLAPSE.

IT IS NOT OFTEN that the newspa-
pers Of a great city join in unani-
nous approval OF the collapse OF a Sun
day observance movement. but this is
what has happened in Philadelphia.
The Sabbath Association Of Phnadel-
Dhia some weeks ago started a crusade
for the rigorous observance Of all the
laws prohibiting the transaction of bus
mess on Sunday. The sale of intoxf-
cants was stopped as was the sale Of
cigars and soda water and everything
else. practically. except ice. Then the
association undertook to prohibit the
sale of ice.
For two or three Sundays the effort
met with success. Notwithstanding the
fact that great hardship was worked
OF hundreds of consumers. It was
shown that there are in Philadelphia
a great many families who have no
method Of keeping ice. They buy a lit
tie bit Of 1t every day and place II in a
bucket or some similar utensH. When
they were deprived Of the privilege Of
buying ice on Sunday their milk soured.
their children suffered and they felt
ike cursing, if they did not actually
curse the Sabbath association.
When these facts were made appar-
ent the announcement was made that
the sale Of ice in small quantities on
Sunday might be resumed. and it has
been It seems inhuman in the extreme
10 insist on the enforcement of laws
that work unnecessary hardships. It
IS true that laws should either be en-
forced or repealed. but there is no spe-
cific ordinance in Philadelphia against
the sale Of ice on Sunday. The prac-
tce was reached through a general
law There is such a thing as constru-
ing law with decent moderation.
The surest way to bring about gen
eral Sabbath desecration is to insist
On an irOn-clad observance Of every
law relative to the Sabbath. It is sure
" not sabbath Dissertation to sell a. few
pounds Of ice on Sunday. Rather II is
work of both necessity and mercy.
There is very eminent authority for
the statement that The Sabbath was
made fer man, not man for the Sab
bath" Sunday has come to be regard
ed as a day on which the people may
enjoy themselves, within reasonable
limits.

any way with the rights Of Others. az

ments, their recreation, their rest. in

Plenty of Lumber.

To the People of Green Forest:
 We are again in the lumber business up to our eyes, having bought back two of the best mills that we sold, and we have plenty of seasoned lumber to fill all orders at same old price. We made money by selling at the old price and are making it again, hence we will not raise the price.
 We have a planer at the mill and a resaw and lath machine. Any one wanting lumber can buy it from us cheaper than else- where, and always get just what they want and when they want it. Come one, come all and bring the cash. HANBY BROS. Berryville, Ark.

Fertile Valley of inc Mississippi

While it is true Oklahoma, Indian Territory and Texas invite the Homeseekers and others in search of profitable investment and business competency, there is another field along the Frisco System quite recently opened to those interested in 8 personal betterment of financial resources.
 On June 1st, the line of railroad heretofore known as the St.Louis Memphis & Southeastern, now Frisco System, was extended to St. Louis, thus making a territory in Missouri and Arkansas, along the west bank of the Mississippi River, accessible by way of St. Louis. The present service consists of passenger train leav- ing Union Station 7:10 am. daily for Cape Girardeau, Luxora, Charlottesville and intermediate points to Memphis, also the Cape Girardeau accommodation daily, leaving Union Station 4:20 pm.
 Some years since, perhaps a quarter of century, this section was avoided by reason of want of development or progressive- ness; now, however, 1t is consid- cred equal, as the homeseeker and investor may measure, to Okla- homa, Indian Territory or Texas. The change in condition through out was accomplished by large governmental expenditure, a progressive people and extended railroad facilities prom oted and maintained by the Frisco System operating, as it does, nearly 700 miles of railway in the immediate Mississippi Valley, less than 300 miles distant from St.. Louis.
 The soil is exceedingly fertile, crops invariably abundant, tim Der interests extensive and re- sourceful.
 Those desiring additional particulars will receive immediate response.
