MOI A GOOD PLAN.

The Little Rock Democrat takes
q very sensible view Of Senator Lo-
ean's proposition for blanket prl-
naarv for the nomination of can
| didate for governor, and in discus
sion of it says:
Senator John P. Logan. candidate
for governor. wants the other candl-
dates to agree that the candidate re-
ceiving the highest number OF votes
shall he declared the nominee. HIS
plan is to have the vote Of each c0l'n-
tv certified to the state central com
mittee and that body 10 count the
whole vote and finally declare the man
Who received the highest vote to be
the choice of the party. Thus if there
should be seven candidates and only
10000 votes were east in the state
and that vote should be pretty evenly
divided. the candidate who received
II 900 votes might be declared the
nominee for governor. notWithstand-
ing % geo democrats would regard
him as unfit fer the Office. We hardly
believe that any one of the other can
didates will accede to the proposit-
ion and join Mr.. Logan in such
request to the state central commit
tee. If such plan should be adopted
the temptation to stuff the ballot box
ir the interest Of certain candidate
would be largely increased. Two or
three of the largest counties could
turn out vote that would astonlsh
the natives. Doubtless some OF the
would he astOnlshed at
the size of the vote in the counties
that have heretofore been remiss IN
sending the full strength of the party
to the polls. II would be well IN
case such plan were adopted TO
stipulate that not more than twice
the number of pcll-tax receipts paiu
in county should be voted at such
primary"

THE MoToRIsT AND HIS CAR.

The driver must knew his machine
intimately. He will therefore in Ger.
tain cases, like that of Mr. W. K Van
debit, Jr, make suggestions as TO dc.
sign, modelling and casting. If he is
like Berlin he will live at the factory
for eight or ten weeks and see each
ounce of metal that goes into tha co n.
position of the car. In every case the
chauffeur must know his car in every
mood, must understand that a certain
thump under his left foot means de.
fective valve which it will require
three minutes to repair.-Country Life

A Wemans Complexio N i.

It is rank fcolishness to attempt
to remove sallowness or greasiness
of the skin by the use of cosmetics,
or s'local'' treatment, as advocated
by the beauty doctors. The only
safe and sure way that a woman can
improve her complexion is by purify
ing and enriching the blood, which
can only be accomplished by keeping
the liver healthy and active. The
liver is the seat of disease and blood
pollution. Green's August Flower
acts directly on the liver, cleanses
and enriches the blosd, purifes the
complexion. 1t also cures consti-
patton, biliousness, nervousness, and
induces refreshing sleep. A single

known to cure the most pronounced
and distressing case of dyspepsia

Emaciated, starving and insane over
religion, August Beuchler, aged 81
years, and his mother, Mrs. Catharine
Beuchler, aged 60, were found in their
home in Doylestown, Pa.
Every door was locked and sealed up
up in peculiar manner with paper
and paste. Not a tiny crevice was
missed. Asked why this was, Beuch-
Ter said it was "to keep the evil spirits
OUT The stovepipe had been taken
down, and over the hole had been plac-
ed piece of screening, but the insane
man who is blind, declared that "the
devil squeezed in, despite the precau-
ton"
When questioned as to why they had
everything sealed up and were starv
ing, Beuchler said, that they "did not
need to eat food, as the Almighty An
gel would keep them alive, and that
"every man had to pass through suf-
fering before he could enter into the
Kingdom of Heaven.
Over the door to the room which
they occupied was more wire screening
and in the center was hole bound on
the edges, where they went through.
Boucher said this was to keep the
shadows and spirits out, but that it
was no good.
Last week, to prepare themselves for
the Kingdom, they started to starve
taking only two crackers day. This
week they had eaten nothing. They
refused food ofany kind, declaring that
everybody was trying to poison them
AS there was nothing else to do, com
missions in lunacy were appointed and
declared the two insane.

In Missouri

Mr.. VandIver, kMlssOuris superln-
tendent of insurance., has suspended
the New York Life Insurance COM
pany's privileges in Missouri until the
$14S, 600 paid to,the republican nation
al committee and the. tenormous sums
paid to Lobbyist Hamilton are return
ed to the treasury. Mr.sVandiver has
been criticised in somesquarters, and
some well meaning. men have express
ed the opinion that Missouri's super
intendent of insurance is moving bit
rapidly. But is it not about time that
some one in.authority moved rapidly?l
Referring to the disclosures before
the insurance committee, the New
York World says: ebay latter day
this testimonyiadds to ithei record of
crime confessed, lawbreaking admit
ted, theft condoned. Sanctimony and
hypocrisy cloak forgery, perjury and
larceny"
But in spite.of these, facts, no one
has been called to account before the
criminal courts, and no one in author
ity seems to accept seriously the sug-
gestion that these rich rascals should
be treated exactly as the poor rascal is
treated. 1t would bel well if every
superintendentiof insurance in the un-
ion followed Mr.. Vandiver's igood ex-
ample, and then it would be well if
district Attorney Jerome would justify
the great compliment paid him in the
recent elections,ib ysa relentless prose-
cution of the insurance rogues-Ex.

RooseveItian Bluster.

The controversy between President
Roosevelt and Mr.. Whitney, late dem
ocratic candidate for lieutenant COVER
nor of Massachusetts, casts no reflection
of credit upon the chief magistrate.
Mr.. Whitney quoted during his cam
paign what he declared he had under
stood Mr.. Roosevelt to say regarding
reciprocity. and what others who were
present during the interview between
the two, understood him TO say. Mr..
Roosevelt becomes angry and with the
overbearing manner so absolutely char
acteristic of him, denounces Mr.. Whit
ney and takes advantage of his posi-
ton to play the bully and blackguard
in most disgusting manner. The pres
ident's record upon the tariff has been
so changeable that any man who has
followed it even a little bit is ready to
believe that he said what Mr. Whitney
and his companions understood him
to say, while his spirit of bullying and
clustering has been so often exhibited
that ii is.no stranger to those who have
watched his career. 1t will be remem-
bered that when he was confronted
with indisputable evidence that he had
meligned Jefferson Davis, he refused
to make correction, or even to hold
communication with the man he had
injured lit is very convenient method

They went out into the rain. The
president led the way and took his
companions out Pennsylvania avenue,

narrow street to the bank of the
canal. There is a bridge about mile
down the canal, but none at the point
where the president stopped.

How Long Will PerpIe Stand It2

The par. value of the common stock
of the Reading Railway Company,
which is the company mainly depend
ed upon to supply Boston with anthra =
cite, is $50. In past years as recently
as 1896, this stock has sold at lessthan
IS share. In the summer of 1898 the
price in Boston of anthracite furnace
coal, delivered, was $3.50 a ton and of
stove coal So a ton. The price. of
this coal at the present time is $3.50
for furnace and 81 ton for stoves.
In the meantime recent quotations OF
common stock of the Reading Rail-
road on 500 par basis have ranged
from 1873 7-S to 141 IL. In other words
there has been an advance over pre-
vious urices of the shares of this COM
pany of more than 1000 per cent, and
we think it may be said, without fear
of cont ADDICTION, that the greater part
of this advance has been due to the bet
ter price at which the corporation has
been able to dispose of the output OF
its anthracite mines.
Considering that the possession of
coal under the conditions now obtain
ing constitutes natural monopoly OF
ane of the necessaries of life. the ques-
ton may we'll be asked. How long
are the American people to endure this
form of standardization Herald.
