lence is within. when the spirit passes
the threshold TO take up a newer and
finer edifice OF It's own creation, Science
assures us that the body lives on.
Here at least physical Immortality Is
an assured fact.
Theology has lrrellgiously taught us
that the body returns to inanimate
dust The religious answer OF science
Is that 1t returns to God. The latest
word In the field OF biology Is that all
nature. including the all mother soil,
Is animated and hallowed with the d.
vine principle of life.
More than this, matter Is Indestructi-
BILE and eternal. There Is not an atom
that can be lost In all the universe.
For this reason our bodies do not really
die. They are in the care Of the angels
Of the elements.

the action OF the oxygen upon 1t. time

llTTI ROCK VEXED.

The newspapers of Little Rock do not take very kindly to the fact that Mena cast more votes at our recent election than were cast in the capl- tai city. Saturdays issue of the Arkansas Democrat in speaking on the subject says:
 "At the election in Little Rock last Tuesday only 537 votes were cast ln the whole city, while in Mena o90 were cast, or 5 more that in the capltal city. Is it possible that Mena has over-reached Little Rock?-Mena Star.
 This is a reproach upon Little Rock that is merited, and the Democrats Of the capital city have nothing to say in extenuation.
 Now that it is all over, and 1t has become apparent what might have been the result of the indifference, the Democrats, we believe, are heartily ashamed of the showing that was made, and have resolved that in shall not occur again.
 Can Little Rock expect to maintain it's political supremacy when it per mits city like Mena to outstrip it in party spirit?"
 Mena is Aot only liable to outstrip Little Beck in "party spirit" but in various other ways. The only solu- tion The Star sees in the vote cast in that city lies in the fact Jeff Davis and Helm scared most of the voters out of the town and they had not yet returned on the day the election was held. We trust, however, that Little Rock will not become envious of Mena's public spirit-for it was that more than party spirit that caused our citizens to turn out and votn

ROOSEvELT'S STRONG WORDS

Day before yesterday President Roosevelt transmitted to Congress special message which has the ring of true Anericanism, and the senti- ment expressed should receive the hearty and enthusiastic approval of every nation on the globe that lays claim to fairness, uprightness, chris tianity and a devotion to those prin- ciples of humanitarianism that makes all mankind akin. Roosevelt is not afraid to express his opinions. Bold, fearless, and at the same time conscientious, our President in viz orous words with unmistakable meaning condemns anarchy and anarchistic principles so clearly and so emphatically, that should receive, and no doubt will receive a hearty amen from the heart of every civil ized creature. That part of the message referring to anarchy says:
 When compared with the suppress sion of anarchy every other question sinks into insigniticance. The anarch- ist is the enemy of humanity, the enemy of all mankind and his is a deeper degree of criminality than any other. No paper published here or abroad should be permitted circulation in this country if 1t propogates an- archistic opinions.
 He was an anarchist that robbed us of the loved Lincoln; he was a fiendish anarchist that lost us Gar field and he was low-bred disciple of anarchistic principles that struck to death Mckinley.
 America is a free country, but it IS not country in which to harbor vile wretches that seek to turn civilization back into period of the dark ages. There are, unfor- tunately a few publications permit ted in this country that should have been suppressed long ago. No other country on the globe allows such freedom of the press as does the United States, but such freedom should not be permitted to run to licentiousness and President Roose- welt has given a warning that will probably check the inroads of those that endeayor to corrupt minds through channels that are unworthy of the precepts, teachings and doc trines of the moral codes laid down by Him that doeth all things well.
