The record OF death includes greater
Information regarding the deceased by
asking for age, length OF residence In
state, birthplace OF parents, the disease
and contrlbutory disease, the length o.
time Ill, the physician who attended
the patient, the date OF burial. place OF
burial, the residence Of deceased and
place Of death.
The birth record Is quite as compre-
hensive as the death record and usually
has more than twice the entries 10 a
month. The name OF the infant, the
sex, date of birth, place OF birth, names
and residences OF the parents, their
ages, birthplaces. occupations, nation
ality, and number Of children already
In the family complete the little ones
history.
In connection with these five journ-
ais kept In the state department, a
complete file OF the certificates, as sent
By the clerk OF courts Is kept, bound 10
book form at specified intervals during
the year. Nor is this all for convent
ence, each record Is properly numbered
and an index. filing card Is made in
duplicate and properly fled In thing
case, so that Information can promptly
be gained with out long search.
Clerks of courts keep similar re-
cord In their Offices OF the births and
deaths, the records of the marriages,
divorces, and naturalizations being
kept as before. The blanks are fur
nished TO physicians or anyone requir-
ing them by the clerk of COURTS who
gets his supply from the state office.
The state Is not trying q novelty but II
profiting from the good experience OF
older states who have been helped by
such records. AS time goes on, and
the state grows more populous q nd
older, more need OF such records will
i felt both from a statistical stand
point and from private investigation.
So far, the people of our state have
responded cordially to the new law and
when we become thoroughly acquaint-
ed with It's requirements there will be
. new interest awakened In lis devel'
opment Ia future years.

There is no more significant fact re-
lative to the good feeling existing be-
tween the north and the south than b
Pres. Rooseyelt's recent visit In the
south and his reception there. Born
OF southern mother he naturally In
herited some Of OF The characteristic Of
southern life: having been reared In q
northern home he imbibed northern
ideals. And 80 1t has been left TO this
man, with his complex disposition. to
erase from our map the last vestige of the
old Mason and Dixon line. Much specu-
lation has made upon the manner In
which Dixie land" would receive the
president, but the hospitality which 80
characterizes the south has been more
than generoas and he has been re-
ceived with open arms, as II were, by
all classes. With Roosevelt there is 40
color line Several touching incidents
during the "trip will illustrate the
manhood OF our president. His visit
to his mothers birthplace Id Roswell,
Ga. and the meeting OF the old black
servants of the old mansion affected
the president yisib1y, but his visit Al
Charlotte, n. g. perhaps is one Of Tbs
most pleasant. Here it was that BIZ

rHR VITAL STATISTICS.

There has been much speculation in
the state rs to the advisability of the
new vital statistics law which went
into effect last July first. The labors
Of the county clerks OF court are vastly
increased without extra remuneration;
justices OF peace are somewhat ineon-
venienced but with slight pay, physi-
clans and nurses also have been made
to bear extra burdens; and fond par
ents are forced to name their bsbes in
limited length OF time. While al.
this may seem to work b hardship to
these people the state at large is TO de-
rive great benefit from the new re-
cords.
Up TO July 1st there was NO way by
which any information could be gained
respecting the number OF citizens
naturalized withinour borders. Every
naturalization paper issued In the
state, whether Ii be q declaration of
intention or tinal document, is now re-
corded In the Office at Pierre, giving
the name. age. birth place, place Of
landing of the foreigner. South Dalxo-
Ia has been criticized for her loose
divorce laws but the recording Of
every divorce at the state Office reveals
the fact that we are not so bad as we
seem. The record OF each divorce
gives the names Of both plaintiff and
defendanlA. with place OF resident OF
each, date and place OF marriage, cause
for. action, number OF children, dale OF
divorce and name OF the jidge whe
granted the decree. The three re-
cords which will In time be OF such in
valuable aid In the state In tracing out
families, heirs TO property, or general
information regarding our citizens are
the marriage, death, and birth records.
The marriage records contain no list Of
licenses granted In the state but q
list OF marriages performed. The In
formation concerning each one includes
the names Of the contractlng parties,
ages, residences, previous conjugal
condition, nationality, place Of cere
mony, person who performed the same
his oaicial capacity, the date and place
oil marriage.

privilege Of the control but have also
been the recipients Ell large rebates
from freight bills The peach shipment
from Georgia has been paralyzed this
season becauss the Individual grower
found no prodt In the shipment Of bis
fr,it on account OF the excessive trans
portation bills, one grower stating
that ii cost 40, per crate for sranspor-
tation.
Therefore the matter OF controlling
the rates Is not matter to be con-
sidered simply In relation to the car.
rier, 1t lie matter IL be considers
from the standpoint Of the public good.
The great carriers. are he railroads
and their rates affect she public, both
In private and public business.
President Roosevelt has manifested
much interest in this issue and has
placed his views on the subject before
the people In his various recent speech
es. He is not satisfied with the pree-
ent conditions nor will he ratIfy any
law OF congress which dses not meet
the demand OF the public. Gov.
La Toilette has aroused much senti-
ment ia his addresses along this line,
and though he commends the presi-
dents attitude, he feels that the rail.
roads may yet control congress.
The Townsend Eseh rate bill Offers q
remedy FOR the present condition by
providing for commission, which
though 1t does not fix the rates, will
adjust all exorbitant tax, and as i
public friend, will make the rate 81

not be sacrificed. Let every man measure up to the highest standard of Southern manhood and do his full duty. The mills have got to have our cotton, and if they want to stop buying at present prices we can stop selling and see whose corn crib and smokehouse will last the longest. On the eve of the crisis which threatens the South the Southern press is earnestly called upon to publish this article and comment upon the same edi- torially. The farmers all over the South are rapidly organizing and the association has no fear of the final outcome in the struggle which lies just ahead.

IMPROVEMENT IN COTTON.

The following is the government Bureaus summary of crop and weather conditions in Arkansas for the week ending August If:
 The week was charactized by warm days and cool nights, with showers the fore part, and was favorable for growing crops and for farm work of all kinds. Rain would be beneficial generally. Cotton, while small and late, IS healthy and has improved during the week and is now making more fruit: there is, however, complaint locally of shedding and of insects and rust injuring the crop. Early corn is made and is a good crop. the late planted is mostly laid by, but is not promising; 1t would be benefited by rain. Considerable hay of excellent quality was saved in good condition. Irish and sweet yotatoes and peavine hay are doing we'll.

SERIOUSLY SHOT BY
 QUARANTINE GUARD
Young Man who Forcibly Attempted to go Through the Lines at
 Texarkana Failed.

Texarkana, Aug. Sunday morning at 3 o'clock Walter Wright, young white man, aged about 23, was shot and danger ously, if not fatally wounded on Rose Hill by John Ferguson, one of the quarantine guards on the Texas side of the town.
 Wright, with three companions. 1t is claimed, was trying to come through the quarantine lines when they were halted by Ferguson They became angered and, it IS claimed, assaulted Fer gu son, Wright using q club, with which he knocked the guard down and was beating him when the officer drew his pistol and fired three shots, one of which penetrated the abdomen. After being shot Wright was taken to a local sanitarium, where he now is. The physicians made an examination and found it necessa- " to perform the operation of laparotemy, the intestines hav- ing been perforated in four places.
 Ferguson, the guard who did the shooting, was lodged in jail, but Mayor Stuart, after Investigating the matter, secured his release and ordered him back to his post of duty, being convinced that he on- ly acted in self-defense and within the line of his duty as quarantine officer.
