THE RoUMANTAN REVOLT.
RebeIIious Peasants Seem to be De. yond the Power og Government
 Forces to Control.


 Bucharest. March 26-That the re- volted peasants of Roumania are a least temporarily beyond the con trol of the government forces in tho field is amply evidenced by the stories of pillaging and incendiarism coming in from all parts of Moldavia ana Wallachia. There have been severa serious conflicts between peasants ant troops, notably at Bacess, in the dis trict of Vaslui. where two thousand peasants armed with rifles and re- volvers attacked company of sol diers. The troops fired several vol leys, killing 40 persons and woundine large numbers but the soldiers were so greatly outnumbered that they fin ally were obliged to retreat.
 At the village of Teleorman m the Alexandria district, Wallacnw, peas ants sacked the synogogue and burned 10 houses. The rioters also demol. ished and completely pillaged Zimni. cea, another village in the Alex andria district The army reserve men are fraternizing with the mar auders and participating in the worl of plunder.
 Thousands of peasants surround tll' little town of Rosiori De Vede. ir the Alexandria district, with the in tention of footing it if a favorable opportunity arises. The troops a Rosiori De Vede are no numerous enough to hold out indefinitely.
 The total number of troops now in Moldavia is 32.610 but large reinforce ments are still required. At Monday session of the chamber of deputies tho members suggested to the government that energetic repression was the only course suited to the conditions in the disturbed regions of the country.

OUR NEW POST OFFICE.

Mena is to have new post office building with new furniture and fixtures. It may not be located just where some wanted it, but this won't keep anybody from rejoicing in the fact that the old out-grown quarters are to be set aside and new, commodious and elegant apartments fitted up- In two or three months Mena will have a post office that a city of her size can feel proud of one which will represent truly the importance of the community in which it is located and above all one which will give it's patrons the ser vice and conveniences they are en- titled to.
 In the new quarters Postmaster Board Gan with much less work and worry greatly improve this service. Mails will be distributed in much less time. the stamp department will be open at all times during the day, and the post office doors open all day Sunday to permit those having lock boxes to get their mail.
 We will all be glad when the new office is opened.

..REFoRrlEDr ARITHMETIC

The railroads have determined to resist the order of the Postoffice de partment regulating the weighing of mails. The order was issued by Mir. Cortelyou just before he left the Postoffice department to accept the Treasury portfolio, and an appeal will be made to the new Postmaster General for it's revocation.
 It is not probable that the appeal will result favorably to the roads. It involves only question of simple arithmetic. and was brought about by the efforts of Congressman Victor Murdock of Kansas who sought the passage of a law compelling change in the system of mail weighing. Congressman Murdock disclosed the fact that where mails were carried seven days in the week in arriving at the average amount carried daily the department used the number six as a divisor. If 60,000 pounds of mail should be carried in week, the road was credited with carrying 10000 pounds each day. and was paid, therefore. for 10000 pounds instead of the amount actually car ried. When the law was killed by railrosd influence in Congress. Post.

CHANGES OF A FEW noNTHs

A few months ago Bryan, after his visit abroad, said something in New York about government control of railroads and should this prove a failure then government ownership
 When these words were heard greatmen tapped their foreheads, and if the Thaw case had been on at that time they would have said some thing about "brainstorm," but as it was they simply said "dumpy, 7 and passed on. Bryan's own friends and admirers leaders of his party gravely shook their heads and said what an awful mistake, Billy has busted his third balloon before getting hold of the string.
 All this was just few months ago and, yet, today President B. F. Yoakum of the great Rock Island system comes out in a firm and posi- tive statement that Federal control of railroads is desirable and will not injure any railroad that wishes to conduct it's business within the law.
 If months can bring such change it surely means that Federal control will come and it must be success or government ownership will cer- tainly follow.
 Bryan has made greater mistakes than were included in his railroad talk in Madison Square Garden.

Representative Witt of Montgom- cry county has introduced bill, changing the time for holding court in this district as follows: Little River county, second Mondays in De- camber and June; Sevier county, second Mondays in January and July; Howard county, first Mondays in February and August; Mont gomery county, first Mondays in March and September; Polk county, third Mondays in March and Sep tember. Representative Witt prob ably could think of no other bill to get his nameon On second thought he might have introduced a bill compelling skunks to bathe more frequently. or making it unlawful for f1eas to ride on passes. ---Lockes- burg Enterprise.

A Place For Theodore Jr.

Cambridge, Mass. March 24.--Tht odore Roosevelt, ir., was appointed second assistant manager of the liar yard University crew by the univer. sity athletic committee Friday night. The appointment was made from a list of a dozen candidates, all of whom have been competing for the place by activity in securing subscrip- tions for the crew and doing other work for the management. If the usual order of succession in the crew management is followed, young Roose- welt probably will be assistant mana. ger next year and manager in his senior year.

 THE GOLDEN DAYS" NO MORE


 The Kansas City Journal has come to the conclusion that President Roosevelt has established the prece- dent of government by executive or der" The Journal deplores the fact that captains of industry find it necessary to go to Washington, hat in hand and meekly beseech that their property be not confisicated. It is not like the oiden days, the days that will only return when Shaw, or Cannon or Fairbanks should be in the presidents chair, and The Journal is working for the "olden days" The Journal will do it's best to bring back the time when the cap- tains of industry issued orders to the White House instead of receiving orders therefrom.
 It is sad blow to the captains" and coming from the head of the party which they thought would always sit back and take orders and never assume to give them, makes it harder still.
 The flood of water" from Wall street, like the rush of tears from eyes that had long since ceased thought of weeping, is a fitting tribute to the change, and if The Journal or the captains think they have the power to bring back the olden days when the people sit meek ly down and bow their heads while Washington takes the orders from Wall Street then we have formed the wrong idea as to the power of the people.
 The Republican party may fail in the next presidential campaign to stand by Roosevelt and for the re forms he has given such an excellent start. The party may turn down man like Taft and put Shaw in the race, but if it does there will be a race with finish, different from that which this party has grown ac- customed to expect.

INVESTMENT OF INSURANCE
 FUNDS IN ARKANSAS.

With the best intentions Senator Amis, who is a conscientious leglsla- tor and a man of integrity, has in- troduced bill which the senate has passed, requiring life insurance companies to invest in Arkansas securities 75 per cent of the amount of the reserve on Arkansas policies.
 This is measure that looks splen- did in theory and that will likely break down in practice; a measure that might do much good and that will probably do nothing but harm.
 You cannot take an insurance company by the scuff of its neck and say Here, we have some securities we want to sell. You must buy them" Insurance companies are going to invest their funds in what they consider the best-paying securi- ties consistent with safety, and no law passed by any legislature is going to change that wholesome practice.
 If the Amis bill is enacted into law and the insurance companies cannot practically evade 1t by in- vesting their 75 per cent of the reserve on Arkansas policies in bonds of railroads running through this state there may be lot 6 trouble.
 Insurance companies are always on the lookout for things to invest their money in. We remember that when several years ago the city Of Memphis issued more than a million dollars of refunding bonds in the Mutual Life of New York gobbled the whole issue, and there was no law compelling it to make any in vestments whatever in Tennessee. By prohibiting cities from issuing bondsin Arkansas we prevent the issuance of the very securities Tn which the big insurance companies might be glad to invest their funds.
 The best way to make the insur- ance companies invest money in Arkansas is to stop harassing the companies with hostile and imprac- ticable legislation. Arkansas Ga- zatta

 THE PRESIDENT RESPONSIBLE

President Ripley of the Santa Fe is quoted as saying that President Roosevelt is responsible for the present uncertain condition in Wall Street.
 In way this is certainly correct. President Roosevelt has directed the power which turned the light on to gang of watered stock jobbers which has startled the public and in the gangs haste to seek cover a lot of the water has spilled. The chances are that there will be more spilling before it's over with, and in cases the purchasing public will find it has been buying large waves from the briny deep and can't cash them. We will all feel the loss, but when we get back to good, hard dirt again these water wagons will be mighty unpopular.
