Slowly but surely the people have mar
rowed the opportunities for selfish agrees
sion, and the demand of this hour and OF
all hours, is not allegiance to phrases but
sympathy with every aspiration for the
betterment of conditions and sincere and
patient effort to understand every need
and to ascertain in the light of experience
the means best adapted to meet it. 1t is
the capacity for such close examination
without heat or diSqualifying prejudice
which distinguishes the constructive effort
from vain endeavors to change human ma
ture by changing the forms of govern
mept.
1T must freely be recognized that many
OF the evils of which we complain have
their source in the law itself, in privileges
carelesSly granted, in opportunities for pri-
Vate ACKNOWLEDGMENT at the expense of the
people recklessly created, in failure to safe
guard our public interests by providing
means for just regulation of those enter
prlses which depend upon the use of public
franchises. Wherever the law gives I'M
Just advantage, wherever it fails by suit
able prohibition or regulation to protect
the interests of the people. wherever the
power derived from the state is turned
against the state. there is not only room
but urgent necessity for the assertion of
the authority of the state to enforce the

Government of Laws.

I'VE are a government of laws and not
of men. We subordinate individual caprice
to defined duty. The essentials of our lib
critics are expressed in constitutional en-
actments removed from the risk of tenn
porary agitation. But the security of our
government, despite it's constitutional guar
antics. is found in the intelligence and pub
lie spirit of its citizens and in its ability to
call to the work of administration men of
single minded devotion to the public inter-
eSts, who make unselfsh service to the
state a point of knightly honor.
IF in administration we make the stand
ard efficiency and not partisan advantage;
If in executing the laws we deal impartial
ly; If in making the laws there is fair and
intelligent action with reference to each
eXigency, We shall disarm reckless and
selfish agitators and take from the enemies
of our peace their vantage ground of at
tack.
1T is my intention to employ my consti-
tutional powers to his end. l believe in
the sincerity and good sense of the people.

NEWS OF "a ARKANSAS
Farm Demonstration Work.
'''V0| .

The farmers cooperative demonstra- tion work as carried on by the United States Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Plant Industry, Dr. F. F. Galloway, chief, and Dr. s. A. Knapp, special agent in charge, with office at Lake Charles, La, is progressing nicely in Arkansas
 This work is carried on now by six special field agents and the state is subdivided as follows: Little River Polk Seyier and Scott counties, with A. J. Utis, headquarters at DeQueen. in charge; Miller. Lafayette, Hemp stead and Nevada counties, with C. H. Moore, headquarters at Hope, in charge; Columbia, Union and Ouachita counties, with A. J. Apple, headquar ters at Little Rock, in charge; Cal houn. Bradley. Dallas, Drew and Ash ley counties, with D. R. Swaty, head quarters at Monticello, in charge; Ar kansas. Monroe Phillips, St. Francis and other counties on the eastern bor der of the state, with c. P. Davidson headquarters at Forrest City, in charge. The balance of the cotton growing section of the State is in charge of A. V. Swaty, with head quarters at Little Rock. There are about sixty demonstration farms and from 1900 to 1,500 corporators in the state at present, and in all probability there will be several more agents ap- pointed by next fall, and the terri tory further subdivided to carry on the work more extensively. The out look on the several demonstration farms is said to be about as good as can be expected, taking into consider ation the unfavorable weather condi- tions. It is still hoped by the several agents that a fair crop caS be pro- duced by looking closely to the culti- vation of these farms.

AFRAID OF PARALYSIS
A NERVOUS SUFFERER CURED
 BY OR. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS.
The Medicine That Makes Rich, Red 6Iooc and Performs Wonders as
 Tonic for the Nerves.

The Medicine That Makes Rich, Red
 6Iooe and Performs Wonders as a
 Tonic for the Nerves.
 Why are nervous people invariably pale people?
 The answer to that question explains why a remedy that acts on the blood can cure nervous troubles.
 It explains why Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People are also for nervous people.
 It is because of the intimate relation between the red corpuscles in the blood and the health of the nerves. The nervous system receives it's nourishnent through the blood. Let the blood be- come thin, weak and colorless and the nerves are staryed-the victim is started on the road that leads to nervous wreck. Nervous people are pale people-but the pallor comes first. Enrich the blood and the nerves are stimulated and toned up>fo do their part of the work of the body. Dr. Williams Pink Pills make fred blood and transform nervous, irrit- able, ailing people into strong, energetic, forceful men and women.
 Mrs Harriet E. Porter. of 20 Liberty avenue, South Medford, Mass, says:
 "I had never been we'll from child. hood and few years ago I began to have dizzy spells. At such times could not walk straight. l was afraid of paralysis and was on the verge of nervous prostration. Then neuralgia set in and affected the side of my face. The pains i'll my forehead were excru- ciating and my heart pained me so that my doctor feared neuralgia of the heart. l tried several different kinds of treat ment but they did me no good.
 "One day my son brought me some of Dr. Williams Pink Pills and I found that they strengthened my nerves. took several boxes and felt better in every way. There were no more dizzy attacks, the neuralgia left me and have been a well woman ever since.''
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills are invaluable in anamia, rheumatism, after effects of the grip and levers and in sick head aches, nervousness, neuralgia, and even partial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.
 Our booklet ''Nervous Disorders, a Method of Home Treatment " will be sent free on request to anyone interested. Write for it today
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for S2.5o, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y

A TELEPHONE DECISION
Company Cannot Charge Other than
Regular Rate Because Others Use
the Phone.

Decision was rendered in the tele-
phone case yesterday morning and By
this decision Drs T. A. Manning and
T. A. Mann won the contentious asked
for
While it was small matter 50 fal
as this one case is concerned-still
it involves principles that will be far
reaching in the future
AS was told in the Herald yester-
day morning Judge Allen took under
his consideration the questions at issue
and the jury was discharged. Night
before last there was an argument in
chambers when the lawyers ON the two
sides presented to his honor the facts
in the case.
Then the judge took the matter un-
der consideration, giving his decision
yesterday morning
This decision was that DIR. J. VI. Ne
ming and DR.. r. A Mann had the right
to use the same phone without extra
payment Of rents.
In order to understand the case it
will be necessary to go back to the be-
ginning
DR.. Manning and Dr. Mann occupied
adjoining offices and they used the
same telephone.
This continued for some time and
finally it was decided by the telephone
management that the price should be
advanced from $3.50 to S. on this &C
count
The advance was made and the refus-
al to pay the new price got the matter
into the courts.
First there was a discrimination OF
the service and then an Injunction pro-
ceedings got the service back into COM
mission.
In ordering that service be restor-
ed until such time that the courts
should finally settle the matter the
court directed that Drs Manning and
Mann pay the regular price of $3.50
and to give bond to protect the COM
pany in case there was a decision
against them. This was done.
When the case was called before
Judge Allen this week Judge Allen de-
cided that it was not a case for the
jury but was one of law and for the
court. He took the matter under con-
sideratiOn and rendered the decision
yesterday that in effect stys that the
company has no right to charge addi-
tiOnal for a service of this kind-that
If the telephone is rented and paid for
that company has nothing to do with
the use of the same.
The attorneys for the company gave
notice of appeal but it is not known
whether the case will go up or whethe,.
the present decision will be allowed -
