SALVATION OF THE LORD.

Arkansas has been redeemed.
The victory recorded at the ballot
box last Wednesday was an epoch-
maker for Arkansas politics.
The day of the demasosue, the DC
tator, the political Machiavelli, the
party despot, has passed, and let 1t
be hoped forever.
Once upon time, not many years
ago, a red-faced man, full OF counte-
nance and rotund of body, dressed III
a loose-fitting suit of butternut-gray,
sat in the lobby of the State Senate
as it's session was rapidly approaching
the final adjournment, and the anti
trust bill was hanging in the balance.
Just wait a minute, boys painted
the red-faced man excitedly, land you
will see the salvation OF the Lord
The same measure had served as a
hobby upon which he had often ridden
into preferment, and his interest was
very great in it's success or its defeat
And the bill passed and the red
faced man declared that the salvation
of the lord had been accomplished.
Several years later, on beautiful
Wednesday morning, 10000 honest, lib
erty-loving, duplicity-hating citizens
from the cities and the fields, the
shops and the counters, the hills and
the glades, arose and with one accord
shouted: Stand by, boys, and we
shall soon see the salvation of the
Lord"
1t was a clarion call against the
brand of politics that has besmirched
everything it has touched, that has
brought the state into disrepute ma
tionally, that has corrupted Arkansas
in every phase of it's body polite
And the boys stood by, and the once
faithful Old Guard, upon whom the
red-facced man was wont to rely so
implicitly, renowned former alleSi-
ance and lent their assistance to
those who by their ballots brought
about the salvation of the Lord.
1t was happy, historic day for
Arkansas.

CIT WAS ROTTEN"
SAYS GAZETTE CRITIC
"Fanst," Which Is Coming This
Way, Is a BurleSque and Unworthy
of Observation-Disclosures Got Up and
Left.

The funny farce of "Faust" was
presented by Hubert Labadie and
thoroughly incapable company at the
Capital theater last night Mr.. Laba
dies last appearance here was in a
drama called In Louisiana" The
performance was reviewed at length,
but, being crowded for space, it be-
came necessary to condense the re-
view. This was done so as to elm
mate the verbiage and yet retain all
the meat OF the criticism. Three
words. 1T was rotten were found
to be sufficient There is no reason
to modify that opinion of Mr.. Labadie
and his company as seen in Faust"
His work suggests that he tried to
learn the noble art of acting by mail
through modern correspondence
school. He is simply impossible as
MephiStO. He wears the usual RED
garb and there all the resemblance
ceases He rants, raves and gesticu-
lates and gives what is mere bur
lesque of the part
His company is as bad as himself
almost. Miss Mary Van Tromp S
Marguerite was about the worst ever,
and Helen Alexander's Martha was
worse, if possible, than Miss Van
| Tromp's Marguerite. Geo. C. Sommes
played at Faust He was touted in
the press notices as an actor from
Boston, in the which event Boston
turns out some mighty poor actors.
When he DOTTED his old mans habit
in the first act he forgot to doff the
voice and he stormed through five
awful acts in noise and fury. signify
ing nothing. The fireworks in the
Brocken scene acted their part we'll
Nothing else did
The smallest house of the season
saw the curtain go up on the frs
act and still smaller one saw the
close. They began leaving after tn,
hrst act, but some hardy ones ant
others who took the show from tn
burlesque viewpoint stayed to the bit
ter end.-Little Rock Gazette.

ALBATRoss NEEDS $50. 900.

Army and Navy Journal-It is estf-
mated that $4,000 is needed for the
repair Of the u. s, Ash commission
steamer Aibatfoss, and this amount
was asked for so long ago as De-
cember, 1906. A telegram has been
received from the commanding officer
of theaAlbatross, dated Manila, March
10, in which he asks for an appropria-
ton this session of $4,000 for the deck
and engines. From this telegram it is
assumed that repairs have become
Immediately urgent, and it will be
necessary to undertake them at an
early date and prior to the return of
the vessel to the United States. On
account of the length of time required
for letters to reach Washington from
Manila it was decided advisable to
act on the telegram at once in order
that the matter might be brought be-
fore Congress without delay.
