resides beneath dress shirt front. The monkey at Harry Lebr,s cele. brated party was master of more shapes thanihis own particular one. And full many home is dominat- ed by dog. a dog who wears slip pers oftimes and smokes cigars and sits by the fire in the best rocking chair and reads newspapers when if his spirit had its proper flesh and form he would be curled up on the hearthstone, provided some human master did not kick him out of doors.
 If such spirits. the discarnate ones which We can distinctly rec ognize in possession of human be- iugs prove the existence of the be- yond, then they also prove the quality and character of that sphere whence they emauate-and it ism t precisely attractive to contemplate Hadn't we better stick to our or thordox idea of eternity instead :; Would we not prefer a spirituality above the obsession, contact of possession of the sort of discarnate things which get into us here on this mortal plane; | spirituality above communion or communica- ton with the animal world and ev. en the human animal world Re public.

ADULTERATI0N OF F00DSTUFFS.

If we really knew the extent of the adulteration practiced in va rious lines which the people must of necessity consume, we should be surprised that the results are not more disastrous. Half the adulter. ations are so efectually concealed that even experts have thus far been unable to discover the decep- tion. It Is known, however, that some baking powders are thirty per cent ground rock and it is no wonder that those who use 1t should be troubled with indiges. ton. SpoiIt meat Is not an un- known commodity.
 Red raspberry jam is said to be manufactured from gelatin, tim othy seed and aniline; lemon eX- tracts are made in some markets from coalter dies butter Is made over and in some of the Northern states Indian corn four is used te adulterate wheat flour. Witt these possibilities for adulteratior 1t would be only safeguard to enact pure-food law, and we art sure the local dealers here and else where in the state would be glae to endorse such d measure. Gu own merchants are as anxious t, protect the people as they ar, themselves. In doing so they pro tect themselves. for when d con eern that adulterates foodstuffs sue ceeds in palming off it's goods or the pubic it must first vietimize local dealer.-Democrat.

It is going to be hard for Gov ernor Davis to explain to the peo- pie how it happened that he, as the leading member of the board to assess the taxes of the railroads of Arkansas, made the assessment very high and made his canvass and won third term with this raise in taxes as one of his main claims and now that the campaign Is all over recommends and secures aireduetion from s57o,ooo to $35o,- 900 and at the same time secures a fee for Senator Clarke of S3o, ,ooo for helping the state lose $22o,- 900.
 Senator Clarke may also have a time explaining his fee to the people when the time comes around for his canvass for another term in the l.. $. Senate. Davis and Clarke have a great combine which should be knocked out by the Logan King antitrust law, but snch combines, understandings unholy alliances and schemes are not to be interfered with, "wheth- CT formed in this state or else where. ."-Conway Log Cabin.

The railroad tax suits were compromised by the Railroad Assessment Board It is little curious to the unsophisticated why the Assessment Board should make the mistake of as sessing the railroad property so high as to make the taxes $220.- GOO too much. But this is a wonderful age, and the people need not be surprised at any old thing that comes along The attorney who received a s3o,00o fee for effecting this compromise certainly has no cause for com plaint.

DISCARSATE EVIL GENIUS.

A gentleman writing to the press advances the suggestion. that ob- session of individuals by discar- nate evil intelligences may be the cause of great deal of humanity's trouble, and thinks that the ques- ton Is at least worth investigating, and that concerted effort should be made to discover the identity of the blessing spirits.
 ''Is it not worth while?a he asks. Let Us remember, a single seien- tifeally demonstrated fact of the existence of even an evil discar- nate spirit will do more to prove the continuance of life after death than all the sermons on immortali- ty that have been preached in the last ten years. That single dem onstration would be the death knell Of materialism.
 We may laugh at his suggestion, he says, but he asks "is there solid ground for an d priori dogmatic conclusion that hypnotism may not be d fact between two persons in tbe flesh 7"
 His notion appears reasonable to some extent in the light of known evidences, but 1t Is very question able whether we should all desire to establish the kind of immortali- ty toward which his theory points.
 We know that some of us are blessed, indeed possessed, by evil spirits which seem to be foreign to the genus homo, but would 1t make us happy or comfortable to prove that immortality or eternity Is the realm of these spirits and that we are to be with them after we cross the divde3
 What are these discarnate spirits which are perceived to dominate some people: History records that in ancient times woman gave out an evil spirit which went into a drove of swine, causing them to run down into the sea; and it Is quite evident that swine have ever since been retaliating on mankind, particularly OH a certain class of passengers on urban transit lines. Who has not observed the porcine spirit moving the obessed or pos sessed subject 10 dive into vacant seat while ladies all around hung by straps:
 Go into the wheat pit, which is a trough, and you may obtain clear proofs of the kind of spirits which inhabit men. No better demonstration of that which poli- ties affords, where We see Presi- dents, Senators, Governors and all kinds of ambitious and crafty men acting out the fable of Reynard the Fox. Nothing less than the fox could inspire such cunning as the political arena every day wit nesses. And how often do we see the opossum in possession of our legislators!
 Look into court if you would see the human badger or the badg- erized human, the growing. snuff fling, barking attorney attacking d witness. In many walks of life we encounter the porcupine, often at cashiers desk, al a paying tel ler's window. A for the ass. what numbers of stupid fellows he does inhabit. Atmany fashion ahie dinner the soul of monkey

While we have no inside infor- nation to that effect, but it is safe to predict that the Iron Mountain Railroad will soon begin the extension of its road West of Warren. The building ofthe railroad from Traskwood. Saline county, to Crossett, Ash ley county, will make the exten- sion of the Iron Mountain rail. road West q necessity in order to teontrol a portion of the Western trade. Such an exten. sion will not only benefit the Railroad Company as a money. maker, but will, also, be a great convenience to the people in this portion of the state.

In our opinion, publicly and forcibly expressed, the compro- mise of the Railroad tax suits was violent compromise of statehood. If the Railroads owed the state S57O,0O0 back tax money they ought to have paid that amount instead of S350. 1000. The state does not compromise its tax measures with other people, but calls for the last penny; and there is no particular reason why 1t should showerits favors upon railroads nat we know of. If the origi- nal assessment made by the Board was exorbitant and un- constitutional the Railroads had their remedyin the courts, which remedy they were proceeding to invoke, when Governor Davis and Senator Clarke proposed to compromise the matter for S22O,OOO less than the assess ment made by the Board. The state should have demanded what was due and nothing more and accepted nothing less. It certainly should not have been humiliated,by begging compro- mise.
