ARKANsAs TO THE FRONT.
People Are Pursuing BOOd1ers in the
 Old Missouri Fashion.
St. Louis Republi

St. LOUIS hepuDuc
 Arkansas presents another example of the public spirit kindled In Missouri by the poodle exposures. That the Missouri ideal of official antagonism to corruption has spread into Arkansas Is manifest in the fact that four State Senators and two Representatives rest under indictment charged with poodle offenses, and that the grand jury soon to convene in Little Rock will make further investigations along the same lines which have led to the present in- dictments. More are likely to follow And since the men under indictment are demanding speedy trials, the coun- try will probably soon be ringing with the characteristic news of such pro- ceedings-news that. in their present state of mind, is of keenest interest to the American people.
 Independently of whether the Ar kansas indictments are founded on suf- ficierlt evidence, the States action shows the widespread and beneficial influence of the Missouri idea Even should the legislators prove themselves entirely innocent, 1t is better that pros ecuting officials should be alert. It would be preferable to have officials and public opinion hypersensitive to State reputation than to have them ob- tuse or indifferent.
 BOodle was never more the issue than at this moment. The area of az itation is broader than ever. The principle that public officials cannot serve private interests. that public of- flee Is a public trust, becomes strong CT with each test. We are a better and more honest nation than we were three or four years ago, before we made an issue of official conduct In- divdually we may be no better or more honest. but the characteristic of integrity has greatly been emphasized in the national character.
 Arkansas attitude toward the re- form question reflects great honor up on the character of Its people It is additional evidence of deep ingrained integrity. of moral bravery, and of in telligence. The people are exception ally fortunate in having officials of representative fearlessness-men who will stake a fight on the moral issue. men who will dare the personal and tho political risk. Arkansas should carry the battle to the last ditch. The country stands ready to applaud what ever victories 1t may achieve.

THEY sECEDED.

And so Norway has followed the ex- ample of our own South and seeded or was it a divorce? Whatever we call 1t. the separation seems to be an &C., complished fact, and hereafter she and Sweden will not play in each others yards any more. After smuggling to- gether for almost a century Norway has packed her playthings and decid- ed to keep house for herself From the best understanding we get of the affair the Storthing, or Parliament of Norway, dissolved the union heretofore existing between that nation and Swe- den and vested all the powers of gov ernment in a Council of State. thus virtually deposing, so far as Norway is concerned. King Oscar of sweoen. who has ruled over the two countries. Whenever we think or speak of Nor way the mind at once reverts to the Hakons and the Fries, the Magnuses hardy half-savages who ruled the country during the past centuries. And the mind goes back to the Kikings and other mariners who virtually lorded it over the seas in days long past. All that and those have passed away, and modern Norway and Sweden for pe- riod of ninety years or more have been working in single harness, though not always in perfect unity.
 There doesn't seem to have been any | real hard feeling in the matter as if is stated that the Norwegian Great Court has asked King Oscar to join with them in the selection of a ruler for the new-old nation. This indicates that they have no intention at present of setting up republic, but merely wish to have king of their own and play the hand alone. They want to try an independent government, and as they are brave, hardy people we see no reason why they should not be sue cessful. We suppose 1t is hardly pos sible that Sweden will undertake to play Uncle Sam and try to coerce Nor way back into the Union. The popu- lation of the former country is more than double that of the latter, but an attempt to keep Norway in the union by force would result in a warm time, we should say. We don't really know that 1t makes very much difference, so far as the rest of the world is concern ed, what they do about it, but we hope they will be good and not get up a scandal.

The Japanese are Heather, of Course,


 Chicago Journal
 Graft is unknown in Japan," says a dispatch explaining that Ro5estyen- as much money as was actually spent on it.
 The Russian officials are notorious gratfers, and they pocketed about half of the funds intrusted to them for the construction of ships and the purchase of munitions of war. The result was that Rojestvensky's ships were shamS, his guns frail and his powder almost useless
 In consequence of this dishonesty, Russia's honor Is lost, her sea power shattered, her eastern empire destroyed and thousands of brave men murdered to satisfy the greed of their aristo- cratic rulers.
 Grating such as this is treason of the blackest dye. and 1t should be pun ished with the reward of treason.
 There Is no difference whatever be- tween Benedict Arnold and the official of nation, state or city who steals the money confided to him to spend for the public benefit. They are both traitors and hanging should be the fate of both alike.
 Graft is unknown in Japan, where. are heather idolaters. their religion seems able to make men honest, hon. orable and patriotic.
 Indeed, 1t seems to the unprejudiced ODSeTVeT lndL lHeIc 10 O1 Ihc spirit of Christianity among these Shintoists and Buddhists than there is in holy Russia.
 Surely Jesus Christ would have ap- proved the charity of the Japanese Ma val Minister who sent to the wounded Rojestvensky, suffering in a Japanese hospital, a note of gracious sympathy accompanying a gift of flowers. Sure ly Admiral sTogo's cali of coincidence upon ms vapquished foe, in which, the dispatches tell us, his demeanor wag marked by gentleness, sympathy and tenderness, was beautiful, exhibition of obedience to the injunction of good will among men.
 The treatment of the Russian pris- oners by the Japanese is universally said to have been full of generosity good feeling and sympathy; altogether worthy of our Christian charity.
 The Japanese are not Christians, but their superstitions somehow compelS them to honor their fathers and moth- CTS as parents are honored nowhere in the Christian world. The Japanese may be heather, out drunkenness and gluttony and other vices familiar among us are strongers to him.
 Above all, graft Is unknown in Ja- public positions of trust and confi- dence.
 If any such were to be discovered the Japanese might be so un-Christian as to hang him. But, aside from this weakness, our heather friends follow the teachings of Christianity well enough to make 1t seem unnecessary for MT Rockefeller to worry about converting them to his religion.

Indications are that the proposed or- ganization of the wholesale and retail liauor dealers of Montgomery. for the expressed purpose of defeating the or- dinance of Alderman w. M. Teague. seeking to close the saloons on Sunday will have a fight on its hands. It will meet with organized opposition of cit izens who are opposed to selling whis- key and beer in Montgomery on Sum- day.
 The publication by The Advertiser yesterday morning of the movement of the liquor dealers to organize, ana was necessary to their business to con- tifue to violate the laws of the State and the city. was the subject of much appeared to be the consensus of opin- ion that Alderman Teague had un- loaded a live question on the people of Montgomery and that before the Aration of the ordinance. much more would be said about 1t.
