In this issue We publish a number
OF cards from defeated candidates in
the recent Republican primary elec-
ton. all Of which are written in the
proper spirit and show a commendable
course from those who We're recent
ly disappointed IL their ambitions ard
should commend the writers to the
Republican voters Of the county for
future honors. II IS this spirit Of
loyalty. under Disappointment, which
maintains party discipline and makes
ii possible for any party 10 win at
the polls, and is the same sort Of
spirit which should and would have
been SHOWN by the winners had they
been losers. As We have often stated
before, We did not get our choice all
the way through in the ticket, but the
choice of the Republicans Of Ohio
county is our choice and the ticket
will receive the lest support from this
paper which it is able 10 give. with
fair pay for all.

EFFECTS OF NEW SCHOOL LAW

4 great deaf Of cOnfus on eud mis-
understand ug has arisen, and vii con
thus 10 arise throughout X lucky
in reference 20 TIE new school law
which IN many respects is a radical
change from the old. Many Of our PEI
pie are eyideltly oIlosCd 10 the Lew
law End We mus sdlnt. t.at II IS open
to some serious objections. However,
on the whole We believe Il VIII, prove
benefit and Il az il may be amend
I'd. from time To time, until tie OBJ
jeciionab features are removed. In
the meantime il should be given a
far trial and its enemies should
remember that this law is neither char
geable 20 the Republicans or the Dem
ocra-s. II was introduced into ".
Legislature by Representa- Eve Suiii-
van, OF Madison county, a DHnOcfsc.
II had the active support of Rcpubh-
can SUPP. Cnabbe. 1t ives Tassed by
a Legislature which was DemOcra &c
in both Houses, aud was signed by a
Republican governor. So that it viii
be seen thet buta pa ties are responsi-
bic for tae law, and about equally pro-
port Oned. Tie main objection 10
the rev departure rs rhat 1t makes
tie oouaty tie taxing un3j, instead
of the dis r-c,, tlus compelling per-
sons in one section of the county TO
contribute to lhe bui ding of scrool-
houses and 3he maintenance of Incl
denJai expenses in another part of the
county. In some parts Of the county
the people have Just completed ex-
pensivc school buildings and nave in
CURED cons derab,e Indebtedness.
This must be paid by all of tie
county. However, those who object 70
this should remember that the scnool
houses belong to all Of the county,
and that should building be lost by
fire or Otherwise, instead Of Ule exces
sive tax which would come as a con-
sequence TO the citizens Of tae I'M
fortunate locality, it will hereafter
be borne by al Of the county ard viii
the. efore be scarcely felt by those
VINO lave teen so unfortunate as to
suffer me loss. The levy which the
Fiscal Court was compelled 10 make
last week, for this purpose, is but
very Mttle more than would be levied
by each school district for inciden-
tad expenses. and was recommended
by the County School Board, wlich is
made up of three Republicans and
three Democrats, ali Of whom signed
a report asking that the levy be made
twenty cents on the hundred dollars,
and one dollar poll tax. The court
made the levy fifteen cents on the
hundred dollars and fifty cents poll
tax.
We trust that our readers VII be
reasonable enough ITO give the new
law a fair trial and II il is not an ian
provement on the old way. and IL 1t
proves 10 be burdensome IN the way
of taxation, our Representative in the
next Legislature should be spetit.oned
TO vote for it's repeal.

At the meeting Of the Fiscal Court
last week a change was made from
the sys'em which has been in vogue
for two years for looking after roads,
and bridges in the county. BY this
change tire County Judge is really
made the Road & Bridge Commission
er, with an assistant in every Mag
isterial district. Mr.. G. A. Ralph has
been Road & Bridge Commissioner for
two years and Aas made an excellent
record. He has gotten tie roads and
bridges in the best condition possible
with only a short time in which TO
accomplish the work, because OF ex-
treme wet weather until midsummer
Of last Year. He las done tlis witn-
out the expenditure Of any more
money than mas been heretofore APP
propriated. The change was not made
because OF any dissatisfaction with
Mr.. Ralph's work but because many
peope thought the county too large
for one man TO look after aid Of
it, and as the law provided for only
one man, with no provision for him
TO pay assistants, 1t seemed 10 the
Board of Magistrates that the on
ly thing TO be done, at least for tine
present, was 10 neSurn 10 the old sys-
tenn as an allowance for a salary suf-
ficient TO enable the Road & Bridge
Commissioner TO employ assistants
would in all probability not be en-
dorsed by tine people. 1t is 10 be hop
ed that the coming Legislature win enc
act needful legislation in the inter
est OF good roads, whereby Ohio. coun-
ty and other counties may put In mo
ton a system whinh will be far sup
erior to the present antiquated plan.

The statement which follows, like all that have preceded it on this sub ject, is from Pine Bluff. It is not from some distant corner of the Union. Pine Bluff people cannot dispute tes- timony like this:
 Henry Meadows, 906 E. Second Ave, Pine Bluff, Ark, says: About three years ago kidney complaint attacked me and obtained such firm hold upon me that I had to go to the hospital. There were many symptoms of drop- sy and Dright's disease in my case. My limbs and body were badly swol- len and the kidney secretions were in an unnatural condition. My heart action was weak and at times I had to take stimulants. Finally was able to leave the hospital, but not long af- ter began to notice symptoms of my trouble returning had heard so much about Doan's Kidney Pills that 1 resolved to try them and procured box from the Mann-Tankersley Drug Co. I have now used about three box es and I am glad to say that l am being helped in every way. I am not cured as yet, but I am certain that this result will soon be brought about, as the relief 1 have so far received has been of such satisfactory na- ture''

COTTON BELT IS
 IN ACTION AGAIN
Unloading of Rails for Sidings Is
 Taken as Indication of Intention to Fulfill Promise and Build Station.

Argenta, Ark, May 1S.-Two cars of rails were umloaded yesterday at the terminus of the Cotton Belt spnr on Arkansas avenue. which will be used in laying a connecting line with the Iron Mountain tracks at the Wilson stave factory. The terminus, which is two blocks west of the free bridge, consists of a main line and siding.
 It is at this point where the Cot ton Belt depot will be built, whicl Mayor Ramsey was assured by off, cers of the road, who visited Argen;a 10 days ago, would be completed ir four months.
 When Mayor Ramsey delivered his inaugural message he spoke of the contract between the city and the Cotton Belt for the establishment o' d depot, and for it's speedy enforce <. ment, which now seems likely of rul- fillment.

Go to Pine Bluff 200 Strong With Hammers Band in Iron Mountain Through Special.

Fort Smith. Ark. May 1.-The Fort Smith Arkansaw Travellers and their Iron Mountain through special will be the big noise in Pine Bluff and on their way there on the occa- sion of the Arkansaw Travellers con vention in June. The details were clinched at the meeting of the Tray elers Saturday afternoon in the court house.
 Arch Sanders never falls down on anything he undertakes and he prom ised the boys that they should have a train which would make vocifer- ous streak straight from Fort Smith to Pine Bluff, starting from Fort Smith at S:30, June ?. All he asked was that the travellers furnish the freight, and they will do it. Already they have over 100 pledges on the list and will take it over the 200 mark before the train starts. In addition they will take with them Hammer $ Fort Smith band. The round trip will be S6.50.
 Matters of detail were acted upon at the Saturday meeting and the com mittees will be busy from now oli and will report at the meeting next Saturday. The boys had the oppor- tunity to inspect the badges for the trip and they are the best ever. The legend in bold type is T am Glad I Live in Fort Smith.

B. Grace upheld the order issued by County Judge Gould. From the or der and the affirmation of the order. Wells appealed. The question in volved in the appeal is the validity of the law which permits County Court to revoke the license of sa- loon keeper on the charge of permit ting gaming in his house, in view of the claim that the alleged offeEse is criminal one and that defendant cannot be declared guilty unless so adjudged by jury in a court having the night to empanel jury. Upon the decision of the Supreme Court depends the validity of the act au- thorizing county courts to cancel the licenses of saloon keepers when such court may decide the saloon keeper guilty without trial by jury.

J. E. WELLS CASE

K. Wells license was recently re- voked by County Judge James Gould on the ground that he had violated the law by permitting gambling in
 his house. The plaintiff contended that his alleged offense is criminal one and that if he should be arraigned
 for it he has the right to be tried by a jury: that the County Court, which revoked his license, had no jurisdic- ton in the case because the law does not empower it to empanel jury to hear and determine criminal cases.
 The law provides for the revoca- tion of saloon license in case sa- loon keeper permits gambling in the building in which he operates his sa- loon. Such charge was preferred against Wells and Judge Gould re- voked his license.
