Protest AgaInst Methods of Rip.
 Roaring Politicians.

When political aspirants so dis. regard the laws of proprie,y as to indulge in abusive personalities and use such terms in their public speeches which are calculated 10 corrupt public morals, it is time that public sentiment should be outspoken in denouncing thls de- plorable practice.
 The state at large is greatly judged by the men who stand at the helm of state and guide it's des- tiny. The best interest of the state and the citizens thereof are contaminated and degraded by the bitter vituperations and personal denunciations indulged in by men who aspire to represent the peo- pie, whether state or national, in official capacity.
 The political arena affords an excellent opportunity, if properly utilized, 10 do world of good along educational lines. And if the political aspirants were so min nded, their efforts would be of lasting benefit to the public at large and especially to those who willingly give their time and at. tentlon, eager no doubt to learn more about the laws of their state and thus become better fitted to discharge their duties as citizens.
 Southern chivalry, southern gen. tility and southern hospitality are terms we'll applied to the people south of the Mason and Dixon line. And let not the heat of political animosity and the use of such words be used as will cause good people to blush with shame and lower the proud principals estab- ished by noble men throughout our beloved southland.
 Men, like natural elements, usu- ally seek their level. Raise the standard ofpoIitics by giving your time and attention only to those men who are above petty quarrels and sufficiently hlgh-minded to re- train from utterances that reflect sometimes unjustly on the charac. ter and private life of their politi- cal opponents. *-W. II. Clark in Arkansas Democrat.

Few men have held public office and position of trust as long as Senator Berry has and emerged with the reputation he has. With all his capacity tor abuse, vilitica- tion and vile slander, Gov. Davis can cast DO aspersions upon the character of this grand old man of Arkansas. He can approach no epoch in Berry's private or pubhc life that will cause the senator the least uneaslness. h life so clean and honorable as his there is no exposure to be feared and false hoods will not avail. Where will you find another such a man ask. ing for office? Can the voters of Arkansas afford 10 turn down such a man as this for the corrupt poIi- ticlan, Jeff Davis -Blade-Demo- crat

Baseball Notes,

Manager Fish is very busy with the
preliminary work of signing players for
the Hallowell baseball team which will
enter the Trolley League. A defnit
announcement of the contracts will lie
made soon. Several matters remain t.
be attended to before the lineup is
complete.
1t has been thought best to forego
arranging for ar exhibition game for
Saturday. owing to the fact that three
games have been played within Il week.
1t is probable that a game will be ar
rarged for Wednesday of next week.
Two of the definite siEnings are Hic-
gins and Blair who played at second
ana snort, respectively, for Hallowcll
last year. They were recognized as
valuable men for the positions named
as well as being good hittcrs. and the
management makes no mistake in ac-
CeIting them.
Patton signs a contract to pitch and
will give entire attention to ball play
ing. There will be three available
pitchers when the team is made up.
