Cannon Men Lose Out.

In one of the Minnesota districts in which the fight on Cannonism was made in the primary elections the Republican candidate undertak- ing to defend the speakers record lost the nomination; in the other two the fight will be carried into the November elections.
 Representative Adam Bede was beaten by his Republican opponent by vote of three to one.
 Representative Tawney, chairman of the House Appropriation com mittee, won his nomination by an uncomfortably small margin, and will now have to make the same kind of fight against his Demo cratic opponent. The last Republi- can plurality of the district was only little mere than 4,000, so there is possibility that a Democrat may take the seat now occupied by devotee of Cannonism.
 Representative McCleary was ir Congress a long time, but two years ago was defaated by Mir. Winfield & Hammond on the tariff issue, Mir McCleary having been a conspicuous 'standpatter" in Congress. Mir Hammond has been renominated and with the combined issues ot the tariff and Cannonism in his favor, he ought to be able to main tain his seat, especially as he re ceived aplurality of more than 5000 two years ago.
 Republicans in close districts can not afford to fly high tariff and Can. non banners this year. Kansas City Times.

KNEW HIS DANGER.

The deplorable accident that caused the death of a promising young soldier and a serious injury to Orville Wright, the man who has the worlds record for the longest flight in a flying machine raised and controlled by the power of its en- zines, probably will check the ex- periments at Fort Meyer only so long as it takes for 0rville Wright to recover and build anew aeroplane.
 That the aeronaut knew tile risks that he was taking could be no more plainly indicated than by his words when President Roosevelt expressed a wish to accompany Tim on one Of his fiights: "Ihe flights are always accompanied by danger, and my death would be a loss only to my family, while the Presidents would be a loss to the nation"

GOING 10 THE FRONT.

George w. Donaghey, hooted by Jeff Davis, Kirby and others as being no politician" and ridiculed for time because he was not an orator, and for his temerity in run ming for office, was elected by the biggest majority ever given gover- nor of Arkansas. And now that the state fray is over Mir. Donaghey will put in the next few weeks working for w. J. Bryan in the national cam paign. That's making headway, all right, and The Star here and now predicts that the hard-headed old contractor and business man will conduct the governors office in a manner to make some of his early detractors among the cheap poll- ticians and demagogues wonder what has struck them.
 A thorough application of business sense to the stai e's. affairs will bring Arkansas to the front rank in the nation in short order.
 Donaghey has made good so. far. Let us all hope he is the man among men for the work ahead.

DISTRIBUTED

If there were a bank guaranty sys- ten in vogue few swindlers might take advantage of it, but the number would be reduced from what It IS now because there would be a more thor. ough espionage kept on them. The system is gaining friends everywhere. Arkansas Democrat
 It may also be added that with the guaranty system the losses that might occur would be so thinly dis tributed as to hurt no one material ly, surely a great advantage over condition where a comparatively few often lose their all.
 Surely a movement that accom- plishes such an end is in the interest of humanity and an exemplification of true brotherhood among men.

ELECTION CONTESTS.

There is talk in several counties of Arkansas of contesting the recent election because of alleged irregu- larities. It is expected large fund will be raised for that purpose in Pulaski county. One of the chief features given as reason for these protests is that the judges, in pre- pairing ballots for ilhterate voters, did so to suit themselves and not to register the wishes of the man who could not read.
 A judge doing such an act would be on a straight road to the peniten- tiary if he was convicted, and he should be if guilty. But one thing is certain, the election laws, if not actually providing safeguard s against such acts, should be changed to do so. And if they already do, and they are not enforced, the quicker some one suffers for it the better Any man who. under the law, has a right to vote. should be protected from imposition and be allowed to express his wishes when he does vote.
 But does net this condition make you wonder if, after all. a man should vote who cannot tell for what or whom he is voting, except as told bv another2

Teach Them Arkansas.

Teach the Arkansas boys and girls to know more about Arkansas.
 Some of them can locate Ieheran more readily and bound Montenegro with greater ease than they can To- cate Monticello or bound Hampstead county.
 This is not the proper spirit that should be manifested in the schools -there should be a sentiment in- stilled in teacher and pupil to know Arkansas, so that the location of any county, city or town, the course of any river, the peculiarities of topography, and products of any section might be readily given.
 As soon as the child begins to study geography he should begin to be taught something of his own state, so that he might not have the h.zy idea of it which prevails among some adults who ought to know bet ter.
 This training will be found in- valuable to the citizen, more so than a drilling on the climatic and geo. graphic conditions of Beloochistan.
 And after Arkansas, teach them the South and it's resources. it's pos abilities and its requirements. Ar kansas Democrat.

OUR GREATEST OPPORTUNITY

The fall season is with us again, the summer gone, and nothing done toward providing accommodation for the many people who would come here during the hot months if they could be cared for properly If we had hotel with accommodations such as tourists expect and demand.
 And in the meantime all during the summer--the trains from the South, from the low attitudes, from the swamps and the malarial dis tricts have carried people THROUGH Mena to points north with far less natural advantages, but with more accommodation for the visitors. They go to places where the people, having little else to support a town, have risen up and all worked as a unit to utilize the one advantage to be had. Mena, on the other hand, having other things, to build and maintain good town, has neglected an opportunity that can be made the greatest of all.
 Ask any man who knows what it is that really supports the greater part of Southern California, and much of Colorado. and the answer will be the tourists. !" What, com ing closer home, has made Eureka Springs in our own state, and what is going to build city at Sulphur Springs? Answer, "the tourists the visitors the people who go to those points to rest and recuperate.
 And what will double the popu- lation and the business of Mena in l five years?
 Seriously, now, what will ?
 Gan you think of anything that will bring more people here than to have it known all over the South that good accommodations can be had for all who seek to escape the discomforts of the lowlands both to the north and the south during the heated monthsy
 And do you not know that among each hundred that come, some will be so pleased that they will remain will buy of the hundreds of choice building sites and establish homes ? And they will tell their friends who will come the next season, until all about our city the hillsides will be covered with attractive homes filled by happy people.
 So much for the summer season. Frosts will soon grasp the North, and ice and snow and cold will send thoughts of hundreds to the South land. And Mena, lying surrounded by the green hills will have charms for those seeking surcease from un- hospitable weather conditions.
 There will be meeting of Mena's Commercial Club in a short time Let's see if something can't be done toward taking a firm hold on this our greatest opportunity.

 A big business is a steamship bound for port called Success. It takes a large force of men to operate this boat. Eternal vigilance is not only the price of liberty, but it is the price of every other good thing, in- cluding steamboating.
 To keep this steamboat moving, the Captain requires the assistance of hundreds of people who have sin gleness of aim-one purpose a desire to do the right thing and the best thing in order that the ship shall move steadily, surely and safely on her course.
 Curiously enough, there are men constantly falling overheard. These folks who fall overheard are always cautioned to keep away from danger ous places, still there are those who fall off, and cling to floating spars, or are picked up by passing craft, usually declare that they were dis charged" They say the Captain or the Mate or their comrades had it in for them.
 l am inclined to think that no man was ever discharged" from a suc- cessful concern-he discharges him. self.
 When man quits his work, say oil- i ing the engine or scrubbing the deck, and leans over the side calling to outsiders, explaining what bum boat he is aboard of, how bad the food is and what a fool there is for Captain, he gradually loosens his hold until he falls into the yeasty deep. There is no one to blame but himself, yet probably you will have hard work to make him understand this little point.
 When man is told to do certain thing, and there leaps to his lips or even to his heart, the formula, "I wasn't hired to do that. " heis stand ing upon greased plank that in- clines toward the sea. When the plank IS tilted to a proper angle, he goes to Davy Jones' locker, and mo- body tilts the fatal plank but the man himself. And the way the plank is tilted is this: the man takes more interest in passing craft and what is going on on land than in doing his work on board ship.
 So l rep aat: no man employed hy a concern was ever discharged. Those who fall overheard, get on the greased plank and then give it a tilt to starboard.
 1T you are on a greased plank, you better get off from it, and quickly too.
