One of the prettiest and most
appropriate souvenirs ever pre-
scented to a body of men is that
bearing the compliments of the
Cotton Belt Route presented to
the Ex-Confederates at the recent
reunion. 1t wasn't much, look
ing at the matter through
period of years, vet oh, how much
it must have been to those old
veterans. 1t was only little
book but it contained reproduc.
tions in colors of ali the captured
Confederate battle-hags which
have been returned to the men
who bore them" The book is
handsomely printed and the Cot
ton Belt couldn't have selected
ANYTHING for a souvenir which
would have been more highly APP
preciated by those old vets"
There is a copy of this book at
the office of The Press and any
EX-Confederate who wants to see
it is welcome to call and take a
look ut it.
Now if the Supreme Court of
the United States will uphold
that decision of the lower court
which was affirmed by the Su-
preme Court of Arkansas, that
state will not be troubled with
many life insurance companies
and trust" made goods will be
tabooed. Arkansas has n law
prohibiting the doing of business
within its borders of any company
which enters into all agreement
to control prices. 1t is the most
radical antitrust law in existence
and Arkausaw and Mississippi
seem to he the only states whose
governors are more strenuous
than the mighty Roosevelt. Both
Davis and Nardaman seem to be
there with the goods.
Nardaman's latest coup is his
declaration to run for U. S. SEN
ator Oh the simple platform of
the repeal of the fifteenth amend
ment. He will wage a strong
fight and promises that there is to
be something doing" if he gets
the office.
The United States seems to be
long on political reformers this
year, Lawson says Governor
of Minnesota will be
the next Democratic candidate
for President. Both Lawson and
Johnson are reformers. Then
there's Mayor Weaver, of Phila-
delphia. He's something of a
Folk, Jerome and Il Roosevelt
combined with a seeming advant-
age over any of them when it
comes to doing things. This
seems to be the season of re-
