wherever these plants grow very few

of any other half dozen common
wealths during a similar period. Not
infrequently the entre division of the
state militia has been called out as
the necessary climax of a great coal
or iron strike. %
Apart from the national guard and
the always risky expedient of swear
ing in large bodies of armed but un-
trained and irresponsible deputy sher-
iffs to meet special emergency, the
states sole resource heretofore has
been body of constabulary known as
the coal and iron police, clothed by the
commonwealth with a certain author
ity, but selected and supported by the
great industrial corporations. 1t is
not strange that the Pennsylvania
miner and iron worker have gradual
ly come to regard the coal and iron
policemen in critical times as their
natural enemy.
AS long ago as that day of turmoil
when the strikers from the Homestead
steel mills hurled dynamite into the
large loads of men sent to overawe
them, the feud between the workmen
and the coal and iron police had be-
come bitter and deadly. The great
great coal strike of 1902 intensified it.
In the eyes of the striking toiIers the
coal and iron policeman is a mere
hireling. They hate him with a con-
sistent hatred, and fight him to the
last ditch with his own weapons. But
the uniform of the state guardsman
except in rare instances, has been gem
orally respected.
AT last Pennsylvania has realized
that such a system is miserable
makeshift. and that shotted guns
should not be put into the hands of
men who owe their sole allegiance to
private corporation. And SO it has
come about that at the last session of
the legislature beginning was made
OF what is hoped will prove better
system.
The new law carries an immediate

! dreaded, but the gray felt hats and
cockades of the superbly disciplined
rural guards were never encountered
during the campaign without inspiring
wholesome respect, if not fear.
Commenting on the Pennsylvania ex-
pertinent, writers are already suggest
ing the possible utility of similar state
organizations, especially in the south
and west, to suppress lynchings, as
saults and feuds in the unpoliced coun-
try districts of the mountains ard
plains. 1t has been pointed out that In
! the south the militia too often, as at
Statesboro, has shown itself unwilling
or incompetent to cope with mob rule;
that, despite the prevalence of the mill
tary spirit in the south, its militia, with
some notable exceptions, as in Georgia,
is inadequate in numbers, poorly drilled
and officered and generally inferior IN
discipline and morale.
1t is urged that it would be wise
policy to divert some of the money now
spent upon an incompetent militia II
the recruiting and maintenance of Il
state constabulary, which, If properly
directed, would soon pay for itself N
increased personal security of life and
property, better conditions for rural
business and decreased expense fer
the pursuit and confinement of Grim

Local militia forces can seldom be
used effectively to operate against ciu-
zens OF their own district in the preven-
tion OF lynchings or the suppression Of
other mob manifestations. A trained
body of professional state constabularg.

ceptibie to local influences. and with
such a force at his command a southern
or western governor would have men
who would not only ire on the mob, II

H ENNSYLVANIA has taken the
lead in the United States, so fai
as the east is concerned, in the
creation of a mounted state constabu-
larry, and it is an experiment that viii
be watched with interest throughout
the entire country. Should the inno-
walton prove successful, 1t is not i'm
possible that in the coal and iron pro-
ducing sections of that state the key
stone rangers may In time achieve
as illustrious fame as that won by
the Texas rangers along the Rio
Grande and the American border.
For many reasons Pennsylvania is
ideal ground ON which to make a prac-
tical test of the efficacy of a trained
body of police cavalry, devoted es-
pecially to the maintenance of order
in the rural districts under American
conditions. Scanned as the state is by
rugged mountain ranges, it's very to-

ignorant and often lawless foreign la
Dor which these have attracted, have
made the problem an acute one. Dis
order and riot have been all too COM
mon during the last twenty years.
Pittsburg, Homestead. Braddock and
score of other Industrial centers
have been the scenes of violence and
bloodshed.
Coal and Iron Police
In the effort to maintain the peace
the national guard of the state of
Pennsylvania has seen more active SER

state in the Union and the bills in
Cured by the state in the suppression

men between the ages of 21 and 40
years.
1t is believed that with the ultimate
increase of the force in numbers and
efficiency it will be possible to dispense
entirely with the old body of coal and
iron police. Indeed. the new law says
distinctly that the constabulary are ex-
pected, besides acting as forest, fire,
game and fish wardens, "as far as pos
sible to take the place of the police now
appointed at the request of the various
corporations"
Constabulary in other Fields
In this country the corps most nearly
analogous to that contemplated in the
Pennsylvania organization is probably
the celebrated Texas rangers. who have
a fine record for the efficient prevention
or suppression of local disorders, the
policing of districts ravaged by flood or
fire and the running down of border
bandits, as in the Garcia raids in 1891.
On the other side of the border good
work of similar kind has been done by
the mounted consta abulary of Mexico.
In Spain the Guardia Civil. or rural
constabulary, is one of the pet corps of
the kingdom, and justly so, for it has
done brave work not only at home but
also in the former Spanish colonies of
the Philippines and the West Indies. In
police work, as in warfare, superior mo-
bility is often determining factor. In
the Cuban war for independence In 1896
the writer has seen a small detachment
of the Guarda civil outhank, retake
and hold a position from which a force
of insurgent infantry had just driven
in rout a battalion of Spanish regulars

Senate Bill No. 70.

A Bill for an Act to be entitled An Act to Provide for the Publication of the Acts of the General Assembly in one newspaper in each county in the l State.
 Be it enacted by the General Assem- bly, of the State of Arkansas:
 Sec. l. That all the Acts of the 35th General Assembly and subsequent General Assemblies shall be published in one newspaper of general and estab- lished circulation in each county in the State, said paper having been printed continuously in such county for pc. riod of not less than one year. Prov id- ed, that Special Acts shall be published only in such counties as may be affect ed by such Acts.
 Sec. ?. Within sixty days after the adjournment of the General Assembly it shal be the duty of the Secretary of State to prepare and send out, in the same manner that proposed const tu- tional amendments are now prepared and sent out, copies of all of said gen. eral Acts to one newspaper in each county in the state, and al Special Acts to d newspaper in each of the counties affected thereby, which shall b, published Tn one issue of said paper, the rate for such publication not to ex ceed twenty five cents per inch, set in type not larger than ten-point solid, the cost of same to be paid out of the general printing and binding fund.
 Sec That all laws and parts of laws in conflict herewith be and are hereby repealed, and this Act s'rll ake fleet and be in force from and after it's p,ssage.
 The above Bill is one of the most important yet introduced Tn the legislature. Ignorance of the law does not excuse it's violation, yet the State makes no provision for her subjects to become familiar with her statutes. The newspap- CTS, in public spirited way, usual. ly give brief synopsis of the laws. but there is no good reason why they should do so free of charge. and they cannot afford to give full report, or publish free the laws in full. The price pro. posed to be paid for this servlce is very meagre, and not half what the service is worth, but we, for one, will be willing to print the acts at the price named, until the benefit can be seen, and some sub- sequent legislature may become magnanimous enough to raise it to something reasonable. We hope our representative and senator will do what they can 10 pass this act, thus informing the people of the laws which they are expected to obey.
The Forrest City times., 1905-02-17
Organization of Merchants.

We learn from the Wynne pap. CTS, and take from the Progress the following relating to an organ. izalion of the merchants of that town for mutual protection against that class who abuse their credit and beat the merchants:
 "The merchants of Wynne have formed an organization for their own protection. It has been the custom of certain class of peo ople 10 run bill with one firm for two or three months, get considerably behind on his payments, then go to trade with some one else and repeat this scheme again. then make another change. They will keep this up as long as they can ma some one who will give them credit, but just as soon as credit is refused them they move to parts unknown. It is to break up just such practice as this that this or ganlzation Is formed and not for the purpose of regulating or main tainlng uniform prices in their re. spectlve lines. It is need esq for us 10 enter into details as to how they will co-operate in the matter. but their plans will work, and it will save them a great deal, and at 'he same time enable them to sell goods at a closer margin"
 A similar organization was at tempted here year or more ago. but 1t failed of results because the members dld not have the nerve 10 carry out the plans and purposes for which the organization was in. tended.
 We shall watch the workings of the Wynne organization with m terest, and hope the Wynne papers will keep US posted of It's progress along the line for which it is in. tended. We can readily see its great benefit where the merchants will enter into It in, and keer good faith with their brother .mer chants.
 Our attention has also been call, ed to this Wynne organization by local merchant who is at a loss to understand why Forrest City should not form a similar organi. zatlon for their mutual protection. Such an organization, with weekly blue lists, will strengthen the cred It of every honest buyer, and force the deadbcat to seek other fields,
