 In examining the pages devoted to the last century one is struck with the disinclination of the Korean govern ment to accept the offers of intercourse made by the various nations of Europe since 1875, and with the number Sof missionaries who suffered for religionss sake prior to that date Persecution however, seems to have Increased rath- CT than diminished the zeal of the va riols denominations, and today Korea is regarded as one of the most prom ising of the missionary fields.

The cause of the great San Fran cisco earthquake is topic and text now being written on and preached about all over America.
 Some have contended that the horrible affair was but the visitation of God $ wrath upon the wicked city. While others have said that God had nothing whatsoever to do with the af- fairs that it was the work of the Devil, etc. But be the cause as # may, and to the mind of the writer, it is not given to man to know and understand the mysteries of Cod; it is enough to convince all that there are agencies and powers which overcometh all of the plans, power and skill of mankind here On earth and that our efforts day by day count for but naught except when we build for eternity.

PkRkGOULD SCHOOL CHALLENGES THE
 STATE---TRE SCKC0L BOARD.

The Superintendent of the Para gould Public Schools, Prof. w. l.. Skaggs. formerly of Brinkley. has issued a challenge to the state to a competitive school showing.
 The writer is well acquainted with Prof Skaggs and his work at Para gould. He has been there for years and from his challenge, whereby he agrees to pay the total expenses of Sl50 if the Paragould school does not prove the BEST in the state except Ing the four largest cities) he shows that he has confidence in the merit Of his work.
 In issuing his challenge. Prof Skaggs begins by saying few things about School Boards which are full of food fer thought and reflection. He says:
 4As is the school board so is the school.
 The power of the school board is al most unlimited especially in special district.
 The law prescribes that the board shall make and provide the teacher with rules for governing the school; the board selects the teachers, and can easily and quickly discharge any lazy or otherwise incompetent teacher by reserving the right to do 50 at a min- utes notice; consequently the board is the cause or is responsible for all good or poor schools.
 Many directors seem to think that the school money is kind of pension funi to be divided among next best friends regardless of services render ed.
 That Prof. Skaggs is altogether correct in his position on the import ance of the school board, is truth well known There is no other one thing of 50 much importance 10 the success, growth and general develop ment Of 3 community as is the public school.
 The election of school directors is tinauestionably one of the very most important elections at which the people vote.
 In towns like Pafagould and other enterprising places that are forging 10 inc front as the leading towns and cities of the state, men are selected as directors who are men of highest moral character and who realize that there must oe no taint and debasing influences on their private character. That's the reason Paragould is proud 10 her school

What is GOOD Farming?

This question. by many of our tiIlers of the soil, Is answered by "the putting
 in of hundreds Of acres in cotton ard
 corn.
 Of course to do this. the, farmer goes in debt for supplies to run him
 and generally speaking, mortgages everything he has, or ever expects 10 have. to cover this indebtedness.
 These farmers, if they would but open their eyes, could readily note that they are badly off in their idea of good farming Month in and month out. through the entire year, thousands upon thousands of dollars are being sent out-of this section and state for the actual necessities Of life. Surely there Is no one else to blame
 for this other than the farmer That isn't ~oooo farming. The Aiarmer can't say that he can't find 3
 market for his product. Thousands lflpon thousands of dollars go out of .BrinkIey for eggs alone. Evel tte poultry itself is shipped In 10 Brn.ley 'frcm other states and sections. ! Our market men even lave 10 send --o other states for their meats their al0gs. etc.

H. H. MYERS IN THE FIGHT
IA pretty warm Scramble for Honors in the Repub-
 lican Camp.

There is never time when pcll- tician doesn't know what opposition is. If it isn't fightings from without 1t is warefare from within.
 Over in Little Rock there are two pr eminent young Republicans who are aspiring for the same honol in the notional circles of their party, and one of these is our own friend and Ex
 Brlnkleyite, Hon. Harry H. Myers The other is Sid. B. Bedding of Little Rock
 Commenting on their fight for honor of being President Of the National Republican League Clubs of which MT. Red ling is at present a Vice President. Little Rock paper says;
 "The friends of the Hon. Sid B. Red ding of this city are much elated over the action of the Missouri convention of the Republican League Clubs, which on yesterday adopted resolution endors- ing him for president of the national league, which will convene at Phila- delphia June l6, to celebrate the 5Oth anniver sary of the birth of the Repub- hcan pa rty Mir. Bedding is vice president of ire rsticrsl clesrzatio and his indorsementfo for the presidency coming from a sister state, has an un- usual significance at this time. The slate of Missouri has 70 votes in the national convention and this gives Red ding quite a boost. The importance of the indorsement from Missouri is accentuated by the fact that Mir. Red ding IS oppssd ffor ttfie position posstittiieeFi iia his own state by no less a distinguished parsonage than the Hon. Harry II. Myers, late Republican candidate for governor, and register of the United States land office in this city. There has been a factiional difference between certain leading Republicans of this city. and Myers and Bedding represent the different factions Both are fed eral ofiiceholders, Mir Bedding clerk of the district court, but somehow they have differed ih their advocacy of other gentlemen for official prefer ment and the result is found in the conditions among mem i bers of the league clubs.
 Mir. Readings friends claim that Nj yers' candidacy for the presidency of the national league is solely for the purpose of decreting the former. Iii is asserted that Bedding has yey fine chance to succeed in his candidacy and that Myers only hope is to prevent him getting the 3l votes from Arkan sas on tie first ballot. II has been suggested today that Myers may be Ihiuced to withdraw in view of the action of the Missouri convention yes ier3ay"
