4 Farmer Had a Dream.

I dreamed the meter had a fit
 And ran down like clock; Nv next gas bill was eighty bones 1 almost died from shock swore that would never pay,
 The gas man said "All right, If you don't settle that today
 We'll settle you fore night. He handed me that line of "sass,' He did, and then turned off my gas. I groaned and wakened from the dream 0 what a welcome change Back on the farm -the wood fire hot And breakfast on the range. I dreamed my water bill came due And forgot to pay; A man came from the city hall
 And shut me off that day. The furnace fire was powerful hot, The water soon was gone; Those furnace pipes all melted out Before the break of dawn I hastened to the city hall,
 And paid their little price; Their water put the furnace out
 And filled my house with ice. I wakened from the awful dream; With joy I had to yell; Back on the farm, the dear old farm, With water in the well ! I ate too much hog back and yams, And mince meat tooit seems; For when have the nightmare bad, I dream these city dreams.

THE RISE AND THE FALL Of
 THE CURTAIN.

Using a simile from the theater the opinion of the Supreme court Tn the Butt case says:
 "The rising curtain discloses de- fendant and certain other senators, guardians of the state, assembled Tn the room of Covington, president of the assembly, gravely discussing, not the good of the state, but how to take over the business of Cox and Cook, two noted lobbyists; control legislation and make money out ot the passage of bills. This was the beginning. Later, when the bill appropriating $SO0,00o of the states money was introduced in the senate, in which bill Caldwell & Drake, con- tractors of large means and rather lax ideas about the proper use or money, were greatly interested, an opportunity was presented to put into practice the doctrine agreed to by Covington and defendant at the beginning of the session.

RAISING RENT ON p. 0. BOXES

All renters of post office boxes in all towns and cities in the United States have been reminded by Uncle Sam of the great prosperity existing and the general trend of increased prices by raising the price for rents on all boxes in the post offices. The rev enue from this source goes to the postal department and the post master has nothing to do with fixing the price and does not get any of the money.
 An effort is being made now to equalize the prices according to the standard of the office, and in some of the big cities prices have been advanced nearly double former prices.
 At this office the small boxes have advanced from 25 cents quarter to 45 cents; medium sized B to 60 and the largest 50 to IS, causing consid-

THE PITY OF IT.

Festus o. Butt was the youngest member of the Arkansas senate. He had the confidence and the admi- ration of the the people of the north western part of the state. He was a speaker of ability and was making great strides in his chosen profes- sion. the law. He had held high offices in each of three fraternal organizations of which he was a member. Although a little more than thirty years old he had repre- sented Carroll county in the house of representatives for two terms and then had been promoted to a seat in the senate. And, more to the personal side, he has wife and three children.
 Now he stands convicted of bood- ling. He has been sentenced to two years in thej penitentiary. From being one of the leading men of the state he trenbles on the verge of felon. How can we restrain feel ings of sad regret when we see a man who has but lately worn the purple robes of high office about to be seized by the iron hand of the law and garbed in the striped suit of a convict?
 The righteous rejoicing through out the length and breadth of Ar kansas that our courts and officers of the law have proven themselves equal to the task of discovering legislative corruption and securing convictions will not entirely sub merge a feeling of human sympathy for the unfortunate who has the dis graceful distinction of being the first man to be convicted of the crime of bribery in Arkansas and sentenced to serve a term in the penitentiary.

erable kicking among the patrons.
 In cities where free delivery pre- vails there is not much use for post office boxes as the carriers deiiVer the mail direct to the patrons a. their homes or business houses, ana Mena is getting nearly large enough to have free delivery.
 While on this subject we will say that we do not think the govern ment is acting on correct prlncipies when it raises the price for use or boxes. While they are a convenience to the users they are greater con venience to the postmaster ana tneir assistants because it is much less labor to place the patrons mall m the boxes than to do so at the gen eral delivery windows, and muceshsl expense to the department than 10 deliver it by carriers. Your Uncle Sam should not make it more ex- pensive for the people to wait on themselves, or going to get their own mail than he does for taking 1t to them. And as for getting addl- tional revenue he might with a good deal more justice shave down the contract price of railroads for car rying mail and have the same result.

Washington. Dec. 21.--Admitting that they had no authority of law Tor the withdrawal from allotment CT nearly 100000 acres of land belong ing to the five civilized tribes Tn H. dian territory for the purpose ol creating forest reservation, two members of the presidents cabinet Secretary Hitchcock, Department ol Interior. and Secretary Wilson, De partment of Agriculture. endeavored Wednesday to justify their course py stating they had the best interest oI the Indian at heart.
 The explanation was made before a select senate committee which IS ln- yestigating affairs in relation to the property rights of the five tribes but the committee declined to accept IL and Senators Clarke of Wyoming, Teller Long and Brandegee declared that the interior department had sus- pended a statute of the United States without authority and that It was the duty of Secretary Hitchcock to immediately cancel his order with drawing the land from allotment. The same senators said to Secretary Wilson and Chief Forester Clifford Pinchot that 1t was their duty to withdraw their request to the secre- tary of the interior for suspension of allotments.
 The order withdrawing the land from allotment was issued early in the present month. The purpose was not stated publicly at the time but 1t developed during earlier inquiries by the committee that the depart ment of agriculture planned to create a forest reserve within the withdrawn lands which would contain about l. 1 500,050 acres.
 | Secretary Hitchcock. when called i to the stand, said that he had asked i the forest service. division of the agricultural department, to report up on a request of Jack Gordon of Paris Texas, and associates, that they be permitted to buy 200, ,o00 acres for a game preserve and that in making an adverse report the forest service ask ed for the withdrawal of the lands for forest reserve. Mir. Hitchcock said the suspension was only tenn porary and designed for the purpose of determining what was the best in 1 terest of the Indian.
 You have no right to suspend the operation of a statute one hour, not one minute" declared Senator Teller If you had the right to temporarily hold up the application of law you could suspend it's operation for month, a year, or two years" In reply to questions from Sena tor Long, MT. Hitchcock said that thu request of Secretary Wilson hat
