Fourth avenue to the north side OF It
today, the wcrknen disinsterred the re-
mains Of a body which had probably
rested there for at least half century.
Portions of the wooden coffin ard 2
few bones we're all that remained
This spot was formerly thu city
graveyard, the site having been do
mated to the city for that purpose BY
Gen. Thos. ]. James, many years ago.
At that time Pine Bluff was sf1all
town, the business and residence dis
Itricts lying between that point and
the river. About forty years ago the
graveyard was abandoned and Bell
wood cemetery was opened. A large
number of bodies were removed from
the old cemetery to BellWoed. but
many Of the graves were not disturbed
and it is probable that when the con-
tractors begin making excavations Tor
the street paving on the north side Ct
West Fourth avenue, they will fird
many old graves between Pine and
Chestnut streets. This is now the
heart Of the city, and in the march Of
progress and growth Of the city the
old graveyard has been forgotten by
many, and what was once silent CITY.
OF the dead is now marked by large
wholesale houses, railroad tracks,
streets and sidewalks.

Peruna is Intoxicating.

According to decision Of the
Arkansas Supreme Court, ut is es-
tablished by the testimonyein the case
VS.. Steele, from Pike County Circuit
CourD' beyond dispute that Peruna is
intoxicating: that it was used as a
beverage, and that appellant sold it
without having previously obtained a
license.
The opinioahas aroused an intense
interest throughout the State among
druggist. lawyers and the public gener-
ally.
The decision OF the lower court
in filming a druggist the minimum
amount for selling intoxicants without
having obtained license, was affirm
ed by the Supreme in an opinion rem
dered by Associate Justice E. A. Nc
Culloch
The alleged offense against the pre-
hibition laws OF the State was commit
ed in Feb. 1904. and the trial was
held Sept. 20, 1905. The court says
in this most interesting opinion:
eli the liquor is intoxicating ii is
under the statute, unlawful TO sell 1t
for any purpose. 1t is no defense to
say that, Notwithstanding the fact that
the liquor is intoxicating, it is sold for
tie use as a medicine. If such were
held to be tie effect Of the statute.
whiskey could be sold without license
as medicine.
1.-The seller must acquaint hin eli
with the contents Of LIQUID prepare on
he is selling and If It is one Of the a.
uors under the ban Of the law. or n
tains the element necessary to COL IT,
tuse an intoxicating liquid in !; oh
form as may be used beverage, is
unlawful to sell the same even the Oh
the seller do SO. thinking III good ( III
that II is to.bs used as medicine.

looked on some Of the men that have
been elevated to the highest positions
in our grand state3 If there is any
one in our audience that has not felt
that way, he should have seen the gov
ernor, as have seen him, drunk and
dressed up, with a drunk man on his
right arm and drunk man on his left
arm, dragging them both into saloon.
These are just few Of the many
reasons why We are forced to look
with suspicion upon anything the Gov
ernor does, and why the ARGUS has
not made reference to his threat to
close the Hot Springs gambling hous-
es. The ARGUS has had nothing to say
about this particular case; in fact has
had but little if anything TO say about
Gov. Davis since he announced for the
Senate, knowing thata number Of cur
people have been under the magic
spell Of this wonderful politician, and
were not in a reasoning mind. We
preferred letting them see the man just
as they desired TO see him, /. e. as q
sacrificing saviour Of the people.
The one consolation In the craze
and spell that he weaves over the
people is that there will be an awaken
ing sometime and they will then see
the great demagague in all Of his
duplicity and filthiness Of life.
And THEN the revolt will
come and there will be general and
long farewell TO politicians Of that low
and dangerous class. People will then
not allow themselves to be worked in
to frenzy and prejudice by the design
ing men who seek to bring about a
general spirit Of unrest and bitter
hatred among the wage Garner and the
wage payer.
This is our way Of looking at jeff
Davis and while if may not meet the
approval Of number of cur good
friends. we have no criticism or fault
TO find with them, but on the other
hand conceeo 10 them the privilege Of
supporting Jeff Davis or any one else
they may choose. That's their right
and privilege just as much as it is ours
to oppose him.
Whenever Gov. Davis charges his
methods and acts from high and hon
cradle motives. instead Of from the
low and baser motives which have
so plainly marked his decision about
this Hot Springs case. then the ARGUS
will be found commenting him and
not until then.

IT is most interesting to see pol.i-
clans seeking to ride into office in TIE
water wagon. as they are now doing
in the State Of Tennessee. Every
man who is asking for the suffrages Of
the people of that state, whatever be
his personal habits. is standing forth as
a temperance man. It is not only in
teresting, it is also encouraging and
illuminating for those who have eyes
to see. 1t is what must come 10
pass in more states than Tennessee.

The Why of Gov. Davis Re-
form.

Said Monroe County supporter Of
Gov. Davis. to the ARGUS man few
days ago.
II have noticed in time past, men
ton made OF the disgrace and shame
that is being cast on Arkansas by the
way the gambling places Of Hot Springs
are allowed to operate and run things.
Now haven't read line from you en-
dorsing Gov Davis in his proposed
plan OF putting ION the lid and clos
ing those places at Hot Springs.
Why don't you say something about
it,
Replying 10 this the ARGUS has but
TO say that II doesn't believe there is
an ounce OF sincerity in Gov. Davis
proposed reform OF Hot Springs"
The utterance OF Sheriff Williams
OF Garland county (Hot Springs in
which he openly charges Governor
= Davis with spending the major portion
OF his visits TO Hot Springs, in the
gambling houses of that city and with
having collected campaign funds from
the same source. together with the
general reputation Of the Governor S
moral character. Is enough TO cause
doubt and suspicion about anything
Gov. Davis should do
Sheriff Williams words are as fol-
lows and If Gov jeff has ever denied
them, we have not seen or heard OF
his denial.
Gov Davis has visited this city on
several occasions and spent the major
portion of his time in the gambIir g
houses. He has collected campaign
funds from the same source. and is
now fully aroused because he is abso-
Iutely certain that Garland county will
roll up large majority against him in
the race for senator.
If Gov. Davis will deny that he has
visited and played in those Hot
Springs gambling houses while he has
been Governor Of the State. the Ar
GUS will gladly publish his denial
This same Gov. Davis, who recently
moved many in An audience of Brink
ley's good people - nearly shed tears
of sympathy by telling them OF what a
martyr he was to the poor man S
cause; that he actually wasn't able to
put his 6algh,er5 out into society like

OF his li.tls es caFads as above Iecited

them Of his having been sued by a sa-
loon Ike eper for bar bill running up

William Jennings Bryan is the same
cheap skate he was ten years ago.
The years have only set the hair on
his faults. He is an honest man who
doesn't know much. Witness his dis
cussion of the proposed government
ownership of railroads today with the
reporters in which he was asked about
Jim crow cars in his proposed scheme.
Instead of replying like a man that
when the government of the United
States owns its railroads, every man
who pays his fare, whether he be
black or white, will be treated the
same, or by saying that white men
would still have the call over black
men, Bryan ducked and sidestepped,
and lodged, aud said that the states
could own their own railroads. What
