bad grace from the senator from Washington, was Senator Floyd's retort. Tt Is imperti- nent, and especially so when 1t comes from a district where there are as many people on the pay roll of the state as there are in his, for that district IS now ask ing back pay for it's state em- ployes.
 ''1 acknowledge receipt of the lemon handed me by Senator Floyd" answered Senator Thomp- son, but 1 did not introduce the bill for the back salaries for the university employees and want to answer this fling by saying to this legislature that 1 am asking for nothing from It but what is right"

Dote and Comment


ffr report comes rom all Buren that the peach crop in Crawford County was not injured by the late freeze.
 A bill has been introduced in the Missouri legislature for the Iconstruction of new capitol building costing 5000, 900.
 Senator Clarke denies the re- port telegraphed from Washing ton that he told d fellow senator that he expected Gov. Little to oppose him for reelection.
 A. T. Cross, who represents Crawford and Franklin counties Tn the legislature, will be called from his official duties next Mon day to stand trial in circuit court at Perryville on the charge of bribery and perjury. The charge of bribery IS in connection with the pure food bill which was be- fore the last general assembly.
 The mail service from Fayette- vile to Springdale is decidedly out Of joint or else the Fayette- ville Evening News has very little system about it's mailing business. Monday afternoon there was received at this office six copies of the Evening News, all m separate wrappers and of different dates, extending back for a week. The Fayetteville Daily is also about as uncertain as the weather, although we have frequently been informed that 1t is mailed regularly. Just where the fault Is We do not know, but certainly the publish CTS of these Fayetteville papers should see that 1t IS remedied.
 We note in an exchange that the first of the year the mail or der house of Sears x Roebuck i'll Chicago discontinued their gro- eery department. If this means anything, II means that this con- eern was sending out cheap, adul- terated goods and selling them in competition with the standard articles kept by the home mer- chant. Is 1t any wonder, then, that they could sell cheaper than the home merchant? And if they will sell adulterated food and groceries, is 1t not reason able to suppose that they, with other mail order houses, will sell cheap, shoddy clothing, shoes, hardware, etc? Here is food for thought for sober, sensible peo- pie.
 MT. Ruff, ot Randolph county, is great joker. When the sem ate bill to change the time of holding the state election from the first to the second Monday in September so as to not conflict with labor day, was before the house that gentleman offered an amendment to change the date to the first Tues day after the first Monday in November, which would have the effect of consolidating elections in the state. After the question had been threshed around awhile and several members had made speeches in opposition, the Ran- dolph county joker naively ln- formed the house that he merely introduced the amendment in or der to start something" and that he Was as much opposed to consolidating elections as any one. Yes, MT. Huff Is a great | joker.

 The next meeting of the Socie- ty will be held on Saturday, 18th inst. A determined effort IS to be made to arouse those interest ed In horticultural matters to the importance of meeting with the society and assisting Ill its work. It has been discovered that San Jose scale IS prevalent in an orchard near Fayetteville, and II behooves overy owner of an ap- pie orchard to be on the alert and up and doing. Should this disease become general through out this section tie damage would be almost incalculable.
 The officers of the society hand in the following notice, and 1t i> to be hoped that all orchardists will realize the importance ot this matter:
 It will be news to good many orchardists to know that at least one orchard not far from Spring dale has been destroyed by the the San Jose scale louse and Is being cut down and burned. and that at least one other orchard IS badly infested and will have to be destroyed either all or in part. Are the fruit growers of North west Arkansas going to sit down and permit the San Jose scale to finish up the work begun by the codling moth, bitter rot, sedge grass, etc. The Springdale Horticultural Society will hold d meeting Saturday, February IS, at the mayors office, to consider this and other matters and will endeavor to have some speaker present to talk on insect pests. Let LIS have a full attendance of the members of the society at this meeting. All fruit growers ought to attend these meetings and help the work along If the society can't do you any good, perhaps you can do the society d service. Don't stay away from the meeting because you are not a member.

 Mir. Morrow's bill for the relief of John II. Youree, whose pension papers were lost and failed to reach the secretary of state III time for him to be included in the general apportionment, has passed the house and senate. The blll appropriates S6s for the relief of NIT. Youree.

 The legislature will, in all probability, take a hand in the row between Ex-Governor Davis and Prosecuting Attorney Rho- ton, a resolution having been introduced Tuesday for an inves- tigat1on of the charges and eounter-eharges. Some interest ing developments will no doubt result.

The senate bill requires every student to sign a pledge not to join such society, and make 1t a misdemeanor for the president of the university to permit a member of any fraternity to at- tend the college.
