Personal liberty is a plant of
rapid growth when once Intelligence
is awakened. Even in China where
the oppression of centuries has
worked to stamp out individual in
itiative the rulers find that they are
threatened by advocates of modern
ism. To stamp this out the dowager
empress has given orders to the po-
lice to suppress all public meetings
and attempt to stop popular agita-
ton. Bureaus of information for
the purpose of instructing the peo-
pie on the ideas of constitutional
government are to be suppressed.
This may prevail for a time but the
tide is rising even in China and the
flood will sweep out the dynasty.

The same being slush.


This JEFF Davis is one Of the kind
that can not be suppressed. A
'demagogue of the sterling type, he
knows with perfect sense how to
appeal to every passion of the popu-
lace, to rouse a sentiment, to make
undesirable citizens believe. he is
championing them, and that If 1t
were not for him they would be ter
ribly mistreated.
He has sharp tongue, a hard
courage, a nerve that never quivers,
and the faculty of spending money
without offense. 1t is said by Ar
kansas men that when this JEFF
Davis is campaigning he gets off a
train, the first of all the passengers,
and before the last has alighted JEFF
is in a saloon and ordering drinks
for everyone. Being one of those
porous big men, he can cross a state,
leaving a string of towns garnished
by drunken men, and be himself en-
tirely sober at the end of his jour-
ney.
And there is simply no bounds to
his egotism. That most offensive
quality was revealed anew in the
senate at the time of his speech, and
afterward. In spite of his senseless
address, his utter lack of point OF
argument, his vulgar asides all the
way through it, he fully believed il
the best speech delivered in the SEN
ate in ten years-and said so.
A bag of bombast, colossus oil
rudeness, an ignoramus, a friend Of
the worst elements in the South he
discredits, and the champion of the
least desirable people in that Ar
kansas which he apostrophizes, hi
will probably remain in the senate
for the full six years-a horrible ex
ample of bad judgment at home anC
bad breath abroad
That is this JEFF Davis.-Tnter
Mountain Republican.

Being Correct Estimate of the New
Product from Arkansas Hills


This man JEFF Davis. whom the
people of Arkansas have sentenced
to six years In, the United States
senate, bears reputation not who'll
ly desirable at home-where he is
best known. And his recent speech
in the senate goes long way to
confirm the estimate which his near
neighbors have placed upon him. =
In the course of the speech, Davis
made some trifling allusion to the
Southland instantly exploded with
the following apostrophe:
God bless the people of the
South, my home land. God bless the
people of Arkansas. Mr.. President,
I never expect to hold an office that
shall not be given to me by the peo-
pie of my native state. / never ex-
pect to hold an Office that shall not
be given, to me by their generous
hands.
when l speak the name of Ar
kansas, sir, am swept with a flood
of memories. 1t carries me back tC
my home with my wife and my
babes. 1t carries me babck to the
fields and the farms and the shops
1t carries me back to a people as
brave, as loyal, as true, and withaI
as Intelligent as any people who live
upon Gods green earth"

ing at all, has increased SO per cent
in cost.
Speculation is higher than it was.
1t is getting beyond the means of all
except multi-millionaires to gamble
in Wall street.
Divorces are higher. Even the
commonest kind of a divorce is more
than the average man can afford.
ppendicitis-which at first was
possible to people in moderate cir
cumstances-is now something we
can only dream Of.
Hothouse violets and grapes, other
mems wives, desirable scandals,
French chauffeurs; and, in fact, all
necessaries recognized as such, will
soon be out of reach Of all.
Indeed, If we keep on we shall
soon be reduced to leading respect
able lives.-Life.

were suspended owing to the fnan-
cial depression.
The whirring of the wheels, the
full dinner pail and the regular re-
turn to the full pay envelope will
soon dissipate what few remaining
clouds that remain and help to radi-
cate the return of prosperity-the
normal condition of the country un-
der present conditions. Markets are
not glutted, prices are not declining
and there was nothing on which to
base a prolonged depression. The
commercial world has stopped long
enough to take stock" and finding
stability and security in the real
fundamentals they are prepared to
renew business at the old stand.

New York bankers has been resold

cause Of Youthful pepravlty.

Editor Tic Evening Journal.
The large number of boys who have
recently heen arraigned in City Court
on srriou7 ah'rses has caused me 70
elni abort FOR the probable cause for
rorh ionro ylty and I have found that
I'm the majority OF cases the love of q
criminal life was implanted by sensa-
tlonal books ana the sort Of stage plays
that exat the burglar. the midnight
thief and the man with a revolver. OF
course the infal BILE sleuth finds his
man i'm the last get but the heroic
character of the other acts is the Grim
inal ana the boy leaves the playhouse
with that Impression. He finds this
strengthened IN the bloody stories that
retail for "a nickel. In this sort Of lit
erature the blustcrer with his profan-
itv and the eium vernacular struts
constantly across the stage of the mar
rative ana IS exalted into heroic prom
lnence In every chapter. He cowes his
enemies by a simple showing of his
puissaut pistol and in battle shoots
with unerring aim and escapes the bull
let's OF his adversaries.
In short the boy Is taught by such
stuff that the life of steady virtue is
the possession Of weakling that the
path aud vice is the path Of distinc-
tion; and to meet the conditions, the
reformatory then the jail IS resorted
90 10y society I'm an effort TO correct
these tendencies Fer some reason we
do not seem TO have awakened TO the
fact that bad books and worse plays
are steering scores Of boys inevitably
TO a criminal life We begin the sup
preston at the wrong end and often
too late.
There is q very easy gradauon from
bad books TO evil habits. "As a man
\ thinketh IN his heart, so is he" wrote
/ lsaels sage. but we attempt 20 re
verse the proverb and imagine that a
hoy can do RIGHT no matter what the
mental processes that may be I'm oper-
alton. Instead OF expecting the po-
lice to stop the tide Of criminal acts
the remedy lies with the parents who
should know what sort OF hooks THEN
children read ana what sort Of enter
tainment they delight I'm.

BEAR1Nd FRuIT ALREADY.

HE effect of the Municipal Convention in
this city last week is already being felt in
the towns OF lower Delaware as well as it has
been in this city The Smyrna Times one Of the
most careful Of the newspapers of the State,
speaks gratifyingly of the work Of the conven-
tion and it is pleasing here to know that the
delegates enjoyed their brief stay with us and
realize the benefit Of such a gathering The
chief purpose of the convention was to bring
about a closer relationship between the munich
palitcs of the State and at the same time to slim
uate interest IN public improvements and devel-
opmcnts
Already the Times is calling for a betterment
Of the streets of Smyrna. and that question will
become live one in many of the towns. In some
of the latter they have fair system OF street
improvements while in others the streets arc
generally bad ons surpassed in that direction by
some of the thoroughfares Of this city We have
no doubt that the annual meetings OF delegates
from the different towns for an exchange OF ideas
will rebound to the interest of all concerned.
