AN UNWISE POLICY.

The efforts on the part of the railroads operating and paying taxes in this state to cause the road tax law to be declared illegal, is not much to their credit and would ap- pear to be poor policy. Every good citizen possessing any degree of public spirit should be willing to pay a road tax as it is to his interest and profit to have good wagon roads and it would seem that even soulless railroad corporations should recog- nize the fact that it is to their finan- cial interest and profit to help build good wagon roads over which to cart the products of the country to be shipped over their lines. There are reasons why railroads should willingly pay all reasonable road taxes levied along their lines. and no good reason why they should not.

THE REPORT OF GRAND JURY

The grand jury's report to the circuit court appears in another place in this paper and will be read with great interest. The fact that our court house is in need of repairs should have the prompt attention of County Judge Prickett as it is very poor policy to allow either public or private buildings to become dilapi- dated for lack of paint and needed repairs.
 The report as a whole is credit to the county and to the jury.
 The fact that crime is decreasing, due to the causes named is compli- ment to our officers, and it is grati- flying to know that the unfortunate poor are being well cared for at the county farm. It is much to the credit of the grand jury that it re- fused to put the county to ex- pense trying cases where it was evident only malice prompted the complaint.

GOOD SCHOOL BUILDINGS.

The following state news item speaks well for Hope and Osceola and the state at large, particularly as our laws are not encouraging for the borrowing of money with which to erect school houses:
 "A contract for the construction of new $25. .O0O public school build ing has been let by the board of di- rectors of the Hope public schools. The building will be one of the hand somest in that section of the state. A contract for the erection of new $2O,OOO public school building at Osceola will also be let in short while. There is at present steady growth of public school buildings over the entire state, a number of handsome structures being now in course of erection"

CARL SCHURZ'S INDEPEND-
 ENCE.

The St. Louis-Globe Democrat speaking editorially of the late Carl Schurz's political life in this country,
 shows him to have been man who had no fear of the old term of de- rision turn coat" so freely used many years ago against the man who changed his political views. The Globe says:
 "'When you see five Germans to- gether, you see six political parties. This retort of Bismarck in the reich stag to Bebel, the leader of the Socialists, calls attention to Ger man trait of independence in thought and action of which MT. Schurz was conspicuous exemplar. Starting out as Republican in the party's early days, he seeded in 1870 and helped to found the Liberal Repub- lican party which, in coalition with the Democrats, had Greeley for it's candidate in 1872; came back to the Republicans in 1876 and entered the cabinet of President Hayes; was a leader in the mugwump revolt of 1884; acted with the Democrats through Cleveland's three cam paigns; swung over to the Republi- can side in Bryan's canvass in 1896; went to Bryan in 1900, and remained with the Democrats afterwards, though an unsparing critic of many Democratic measures and leaders. He was one of the pioneers in the movement for civil service reform, and prominently identified with it to the end of his days. While it could be said that he turned his political coat as often as Alcibiades or Tallyrand, he was true to his nature in all the pendulum swings which put him for and against every great party which figured during his time. Beginning his career as a revolutionist in Germany nearly sixty years ago, revolutionist platonically he remained to the last hour of his life. America loses a man of rare intelligence and public activity in the death of Carl Schurz.

ARKANSAS MINERS STILL OUT

The coal miners of the anthracite district, who have settled their troubles with the operators. resumed work this morning, but the miners of the southwestern district which includes the mines of Arkansas are still out pending settlement. The operators will hold a meeting at some central point this week and ask the President to intervene for a settlement of the strike. The ope- rators are anxious for arbitration but it appears that the miners are depending on their ability to handle the situation otherwise. Thus it may transpire that the mines of Arkansas will remain idle for months yet. The southwestern district in- cludes Arkansas, Indian Territory, Oklahoma, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and that territory embracing the soft-coal mines of this entire section. Naturally the price will be affected
 by the continued idleness of the mines. 1t is hoped that the situation may improve and that the mines

est, IS 10 get paint mats ready mixed" Ready mixed" is another way of saying "Already used up," be- cause the oil in the ready mixed paint was, of course, put there the day the paint icas cdnned. When that scds mo- body can sag. And all the time the can was in the factory, and in the freight car, and on the dealer's shelves, the lead-and, possibly zine, mixture, if it's we'll mixed paint--was eating the life out of the oil. It's wine, and not paint that improves with age. And properly to mix lead and zinc, turpen- tine and all the other ingredients, SO as to be sure of the freshness and strength of your linseed oil, is too great task for the householder--and even for the up-to-date painter. What to do thenf Get a paint that is in con- densed form-with all the right things ground into it by machinery. but with the pure raw linseed oil left out for you to put in. That paint is HAM MAR paint--the paint you're sure of --the paint that is all paint. The only paint that is guaranteed to wear for five years. Come in and talk it over before you paint. You not only get the best paint but save at least 25qs on your paint bill. t

the one to be troubled with con sumption.

Missouri politicians are in sore trouble. The railroads have unani- mously agreed not to issue passes to delegates to state conventions, as customary for many years, so these public spirited citizens must pay their fare if they ride by rail. Po- litical parties should never be under obligations to the railroads, but it seems now that the railroads are not going to be under obligation to the politicians.

An effort is being made in Congress to have an investigation of railway wrecks by the Department of Com merce and Labor. When the gov ernment comes to own and operate the roads it will be entirely proper to investigate any wrecks that may occur but at present the railroads would resent any such chmeddling with their private affairs.
