Another Fire
 At Prescott
Public School Building Suf- fers Great Loss--Origin
 Fire Not Known.

Wednesday night about 10:3O fire was discovered in the base ment of the public school build ing. The alarm was turned in. and in a few. minutes the brave fire laddies of our town were fighting the flames. The fire was leaping up the basement steps and soon climbed the hall stair way, breaking the upstairs win dows. The building seemed t. be doomed, and had it not beer for the excellent work of the fire department the whole building whould have been destroyed.
 The fire was soon under con- trol. but not until great deal of damage had been done. The lower hall doors and windows, stairways, library case upstairs and the clustering in nearly all the rooms were a complete loss. It will probably take 5000 to cover the loss.
 How the fire originated is still a mystery. The janitor left the building about 8 o'clock and says the fire was all out. It is hoped that school will start again Mon day.
 All honor to the brave fire boys for their excellent work.

Excessive rains have done great damage to the railroads in the last two weeks; but they have not injured the railroad companies at all. It seems to be d mystery to some people how every calamity that befalls the railroad companies enures at last to their benefit. But really there is no mystery about it. Every washout, damage suit, big fire, or other calamity is charged up to expenses of operating the roads and is taxed on freight charges. So it does not cost the roads one cent in the long run.

SUDDEN DEATH
Came to Hugh Moncrief Last
 Friday.

Last Friday evening Hugh Moncrief, one of the most prom inent business men of Prescott, fell dead at his gate.
 MT. Moncrief had not been in good health for about five years, but for a few days before his sad and tragic ending, it was Thought by his friends that he was more cheerful and really in better health than he had been for year or two.
 He had been up town and re- turned, seemingly as well as usual. He ate supper as usual and walked ou. to the lot to turn tke horse out of the stable. He did not return. but fell at the yard gate. His mortal remains were inferred in DeAnn ceme. tcry on last Monday.
 Mir. Moncrief had been in business in Prescott for many years and had made many friends, but on account of his failing health he had sold his drug business a few mouths be- fore his death.
 He was an honest, upright mln, full of energy, a man of unquestioned integrity. He was d kind husband and father, a good neighbcr and noble and true citizen.
 He leaves a sorroWing wife and three children to mourn for the loss of a faithful husband, father, friend.
 Sacred be his memory. Peace to his dust until the breath of eternal life shall quicken it into immortality at the last great day.

The Arkansas Gazette and Governor Jeff Davis are having a tilt about whether the donds in the state treasury belonging to the school fund is an asset or a liability.
 The Governor contends that because the state has charge Of the bonds 1t is therefore an asset.
 The Bonds represent so much money which the U. s. gave to the state as a schoo. fund and the state borrowed this money and has used it. Now the state owes the money back to the school fund and is taxing the people each year to pay the ln- tereSt.
 Truly Jeff has invented new kind of "Hocus Focus finance. If he can have the state borrow money and spend it and then claim that the note 1t owes for the money is so much property to it's credit, then the only thing in this world that could keep him from making this the rich est commonwealth on earth IS the trouple of finding enough people to lend him the money.
 If he could borrow million dollars and give his note for it, he imagines that he would then own two millions which cost him nothing.
 Doyou see? He has nothing to start with, just as the state had; he borrows one million: he gives his note for the million; so he now has two millions.

The financial age, New York publi-
cation, has this to say concerning the
origin of the trouble in New York City
can be directly traced to the cupidity of
few rich directors who controlled
banks. We are not referring to the
Heinzes, or the Morses. or the Thomases
but to the men who deliberately sold
out their depositors by disposing of their
stock to lot of plungers and wreckers
for the few thousand dollars they re-
ceived above the market value of their
holdings, with full knowledge of the
callber of the men to whom they were
making the SALE They are the men
who should be held responsible for the
present trouble. 1t may be said that a
bank director has the same right to
make money as any one else. True, but
he has no right to make money by jeop-
ardlzing the money of the depositors
who, because of their confidence in him,
have caused his stock to be worth so
much more than he paid for it: His
moral duty remains and should be
placed above any business cupidity.
