THE PRESIDENTS TEMPER.

During the last three months the sharks and the hyenas of money and greed have bounced upon the president, trying to change the sentiment of the people against Roosevelt They have maligned and attacked the president wher- ever they found chance. The Japanese controversy, the Browns vile matter, the Storer incident, they all furnished them food for assault that went far beyond the affairs. lndustriously they have done their work, burrowing like the mole from dawn till day and bowling like the hyenas at night.
 It is easy to understand that the president has chafed under the un- just criticism, that he has longed for an opportunity, denied him by the forms surrounding his exalted office of replying to his enemies. That Opportunity, according to New York reports, came last week at the dinner of the famous Grid iron club. when at last he had the chance to reply face to face to Sen ator Foraker, the leader of the moneyed interests, who are hurt by the presidents demand for a square deal for all.
 The president, so it is said, lost his temper in his reply to Foraker's attacks. Trembling with wrath, he is said to have shaken his finger at Rogers and Morgan, the leaders of the frenZied finance gang, Warn- ing them that, though they might defeat him, their next fight would be against an indignant nation. He is said to have longed for an op- portunity of replying to Foraler while that distinguished corpora tion representative was still speak ing. and that Roosevelt's friends had difficulty in restraining him from his purpose.
 No doubt President Roosevelt is high tempered; no doubt he com mits rash and unwise acts, but over and beyond it all, it must be admitted that he is "doer of things and seems to be aetuated by desire for square deal,' re- gardless of color or section, as a president should.

I'm going 70 the drug store now Upon hurried trip To get some other kind of dope For father has the grip. l heard him grooming in the night; He said his head would split, And then he thought his back would

 In just a little bit He told us that his legs were sore, And soon it was his hip. It seems that everything is sick When father has the grip. The doctor came today and left Some capsules, and he said To take one each three hours until The pain had really fled. Said pa: That means twelve hours be-
 fore

 .:E ''' Talk of Abolishing Capitol Commission Being Dis sussed by Pine Bluff Par ties-The Members.
w. B. ALEXANDER ONE
Davis Took Parting Shot at That Body in His Final Message-Bill Will Come From Friends of Form. CT Governor.

Owing to the fact that w. B. Alex ander, of this city, is one of the com mission, the talk in legislative cir cles that bill will be introduced in the General Assembly, probably this week, for the abolishing of the present State Capitol Commission and the election of new members to take the places of the incumbents is at tracing no little attention in this city.
 The present commissioners were elected by the General Assembly at the 1903 session an dthe board of con- posed of John B. McCaleb of Evening Shade (chairman), w. B. Alexander of Pine Bluff, R. w. McFarlane of boro and J. M. Flenniken of Camden.
 At each session of the legislature since the commissioners were ap- pointed there has been more or less antagonism toward them, and it is said that at this session bill that will have for it's object their removal will be presented
 In his farewell message to the leg islature, Governor Davis took a part ing shot at the commissioners. Re- ferring to allegations of fraud against the contractors, Governor Davis said:
 "As long as these contractors can drag along from year to year, hop ing that their bond will not be for feited, or that they will not be brought to the bar of public account and that they may catch some legislature un- awares and obtain an additional ap- propriation for this work, like vul- lures that hang around carcass they will be found present at every legis- lature asking more money from the taX-ridden people of this state. The present Board of Commissioners in my judgement cannot be held blame less. While I do not pretend to say they are criminally guilty or intended to be so they cannot be held blame less when they failed to discharge these contractors and get honest men to do this work
 It is stated that the bill for the abol- ishment of the present commission will come from friends of Governor Davis.

REPRESSION OF PISTOL-TOTlNG

There are three or four bills pending in the legislature looking to a repression of the evil of "pistol-toting." and some of them ought to pass, very truly says the Arkansas Democrat.
 None of these bills make pistol carrying a felony, but provide only more severe penalties in the way of fines, which, if made large enough, would in many instances mean Imprisonment through in ability to pay.
 The evil is one that has been growing with the years, and some thing must be done to check it.
 Many prominent criminologists and jurists over the country have recommended that it be made a felony, and that the laws be made as drastic as tn constitution will permit.
 This would probably stop it. bat some have doubted whether a law making the crime felony could be enforced.
 It would do no harm to try and good might result from the agita- tion that would follow
 Those who desire to stop the in discriminate carrying Of deadly weapons should not neglect the op. portunity to apply some of the re- strictions to the indlscriminate sale of weapons to the Irresponsible and criminally inclined.

MEM ORAL DAY.

When the people of the nation put aside their
work day last week to devote the time to the
memory of the dead who had served in the me-
morable conflict between the states they consciously
did honor to the heroes of war and mconsciousIy
did honor to the art of war. To the men who fought
with the armies of the north preserve the nation
is due more than we of later generation usually
concede in the strenuous life which we follow but
the annual Memorial day must awaken in us the
patriotism which the heroes felt when they an
swered the call after the incident at Fort Sumter
or when they returned to their homes after the eli
max at Appomattox. The years between were filled
with and bloody confict-war which tore the
nation to the foundation-and filled with momen-
tous events which furnish today. forty-two years
after the conflict such history as was never known
before, and which we hope and pray will never need
be repeated.
As the years roll on and the ranks of those brave
men thinned and decrepitude comes over those
who yet remain, the annual celebration of one day
given to the memory of the dead and to the honor
Of the living must soften the hatred which grew up
between the men who wore the blue and the men
who wore the gray in those awful years of civil
strife. In few years all will be gone the hero of
the southland and the hero of the north Already
the recementing of fraternal ties is all but an ac-
complished fact. Ere the last of these brave men
have passed from earth the ties of affection will be
so sealed that the wound shall show no scar. Nine
years ago the of confederate and federal sol
diers marched shoulder to shoulder beneath the
Stars and Stripes, under the command of men vino
learned the art of in the camps of both the 4
great American armies And today the heroes of
the Spanish-Amercan war participate in our me-
mortal day, and strew flowers in grateful memory
of those who fought bravely in the darkest days
of civil war. Ours is, indeed reunited nation
and Memorial day commentaries not only the vaIor
of brave who fell in battle not only the for
titude of brave women who shared the burdens of
the war, but union of hands, union of hearts,
and the flag of our union forever"
