Touring the United States.

c. NJ. Darling and C. c. Mur- phey, two young men living at Jackson, Michigan, were in
 Springdale Saturday on a tour of the United States on bicycles. They left Jackson May 2, 1904, and are to pass through every state in the Union, a distance of 12,OOO miles in IS months on a wager of S5,000. According to the conditions of the wager they were to start without a cent and are neither to beg or borrow money to pay their expenses. In order to pay their way they are selling a small aluminium pin tray containing their photographs and their itinerary. These they sell at Is cents, and one of the young men informed The News that at times they experienced considerable difficulty in doing this.
 They are husky looking young fellows, twenty years of age, and except from being tanned by expos, ure exhibit no ill-effects from their journey so far. They have been having. rough time for several days past on account of the cold weather, and have been walking on the railroad track and leading

What Fools These MOrtals Be.

There IS no doubt but Shakes peare had in mind the narrowness of the political horizon that ob- tains among the people in towns like Springdale when he wrote the line that heads this article.
 Spring election is approaching and the Democrats are already footing their little tin horns, and would-be candidates are grooming themselves for the ''race;' and the few little Republicans can see no hope of political aseendancy short of an alliance with the less orthodox Democrats. The issue is momentous. The perpetuity of our National existence hangs Tn the balance.
 In all seriousness, 1t IS beyond the capabilities of the writer to conceive of anything more ridicu- lous in d little town than a sepa- ration of the few people on parti- gan grounds. Competent men are so scarce that both parties should line up shoulder to shoulder and select capable men as far as possi- ble for the offices. Men who are enterprising and aggressive. If none can be found have ladies ap- pointed. History records the fact that many towns owe their ava kening directly to the municipal management of ladies. Never has there been time in the his- tory of the Republic when party lines were so lax as they are to- day. This fact augurs well for our country, and means that an enlightened public sentiment is in the ascendency.
 Has 1t not occurred to my read CTS that the religious horizon in Springdale is quite as narrow as the political? To say that the Bible was made solely for the Methodists, the Baptists, or the Presbyterians, or any other sect, is the quintessence of dogmatism. Exclusive creeds are giving way to more advanced thought. Min isterial alliances and union servi. ces are doing more to christian ize the world than all the utter ances of sectarianism.

Topeka, Feb. 16.-A bill pro- viding for the establishment of a state oil refinery passed the Kan- sas house of representatives by vote of 91 to 40.
 Under its provisions a refinery will be erected at Peru, Kansas. Another penitentiary will be built there to provide convict labor for the refinery. An appropriation of $40, 900 Is made for the build ing and maintaining the refinery and penitentary.
 This ends one of the most bit : ter fights ever before the Kansas legislature. The Standard Oil company and railroads have main tained strong lobbies here, vain- ly trying to defeat the bill.

You Can't Fool All the People,

For years, Abraham Lincoln,
 has been credited with the say ing You can fool all the people some of the time, some of the
 people all the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time. '" The Washington Post says that
 Representative Snooks of Ohio recently received from a "curious constituent of literary turn of mind who studies the sayings that fall from the lips ot great men," a letter inquiring what speech of Abraham Lincoln's con- tains these famous words. The Post says that Representative Snooks referred the inquiry to the congressional librarian and Assistant Librarian Spofford,
 who is famous as a literary au-  thority, reported that the sen- tence does not occur Ill any of Lincoln's writings. Mir. Spofford says that Mir. Nieo1ay, Lincoln's secretary, told him (Spofford) ) that they were spurious. MT. Spofford says that P. T. Barnum, the great circus man, was the author of the popular sentence which has been heard millions of times on the stump in every polit- ical campaign during the last quarter of a century.-Exchange.

To Import Italian Labor.

Waldo Pesaturo of Providence, k. l., has written to Secretary Brown of tile board of trade that h1s efforts to secure the importa- ton of Italian labor into Arkan- sas have been successful. and that the movement will be inaug- rated by sending a party of sixty Italians to Benton County to work on the farm of Judge W. J. Pat ton, former county judge of Pu- laski County. He states that If these Italians are satisfied others will probably come to the state. He says that farming iS very at tract1ve to the Italians but they do not seem anxious to work OH cotton plantations. Little Rock Gazette.
 Judge Patton does not live in Benton County, but ln Washing- ton, three miles southeast of Springdale. Concerning the above clipping the judge stated to The News that while definite arrangements for the importation of the Italians had not been com pleted he thought they soon would be, and he expects them to arrive i'll time to be of service in pickin z strawberries. It IS understood that some of tile berry assoeia- tions contemplate securing some of the same class of labor fo1 picking berries. It IS evident that unless outside help is secured the berry crop this year cannot be picked as there are not enough available hands in this section to do the work. The importation of Italian labor seems to be the best solution of the problem. A few years ago when the Italian colony located west of Spring dale, fears were expressed by many that they would be detri- ment to the country and they were looked upon with predjudice and suspicion. The reverse has been proven to be true. They went to work building houses, clearing up and eultivating land, have their church and school, postoffice and store, and have a prosperous and thrifty looking community. They attend strict ly to their own business and have the respect of all native citizens in that locality, and in tact o1 everyone who has become ac- ouainted with them. Incidental l 1y 1t may be mentioned that dur ing their residence here not a s1n- ole one. so far as The News IS aware. has ever violated a single law or been arrested for any mis. demeanor.
