uti, WHAT A FARcEi

In big headlines the metropolitan papers tell of the high price of wheat, of the sensational and record breaking advance in price brought about by a coterie of spectators who have gotten control of the mar ket in Chicago and other such cen ters of gambling in the products of the country.
 On ths face of the thing this is bad enough-is calamity to the consumers who have to pay the exorbitant prices for their bread, but that is not all. Some of these same papers. particularly the Kan sas City Journal. prints long articles on what glorious thing these arti- ficially made high prices are for the farmers and even has the impu- dence to figure on the vast fortunes they are to reap from drumming the figures away up into the millions
 This is no less than an impudent Ainsult to every farmer in the land.
 Everyone of them, and 99 other

 JUST RESISTING HARDER.

The Fort Smith Times has so little regard for the efficiency of the pres ent legislature and state administra- tion that it thinks it would be a good idea to have the capitol built by the general government and turned over to the state when com pleted. But the Times is wrong. The condition so far as grating and crooked dealing in the case of our capitol is no worse, probably not half as bad, as that which has existed in other states, and our representa- tives are no less efficient. It is simply that the lessons of other states have made Arkansas try harder to resist graft, and this has created delay and disturbance. It may be expensive, but Arkansas can build her own state house. and ex- penese created in preventing graft is better than paying the money to the grafters.
The Mena weekly star., 1909-04-15

men out of every hundred, knows that there is almost no wheat in the the hands of the farmers, and there has not been in several months. Even some Kansas farmers, if the newspapers tell the truth. have recently been buying wheat for seed. The wheat is in the hands of the big mill and elevator companies and spectators, who reap 99 per cent of the benefit.
 On the other hand and there is what makes the case all the more aggravating- all these millions ad- ded to the price of wheat are taken directly from the consumers of bread.
 And this item of wheat does not stand alone. Every man who raises cotton knows that prices rarely be- come high until the crop has gone from the hands of the grower. These artificial high prices are in- variably created after the produce sells and before the consumer buys.
 When will this sort of pretense at benefitting the people cease and the robbery of both producer and con- sumer stop?

Mewhinneyyille. Ok.

There is in the southern part of LaFlore county, Oklahoma, a new town of about 150 inh ibitants. It's support comes from the labor given at the large sawmill owned and superintended by Ed Mewhinney. A new school house has been erected and school going on at present with about thirty children attending. The store supplies about $500 with groceries, etc. each month. There is now about ITS, ,000 feet of lumber on the ground, but the country around the mill is in it's native state. The ground is now covered with a green carpet interspersed with the lovliest wild violets we have ever seen. J. P. Kelly of Mena is check ing lumber at the old mill set about two and one-halt miles from the present location. We enjoyed the visit with Mrs. Mewhinney and Mrs. Marion Hunt very much. But Mena IS Home, Sweet Home" wherever we go. Yours. Bertha Kelly.

to his opponent, expect him to make good executive and to serve Mena to the credit of himself and the city. In this he should have the hearti- est support from every man, woman and child.
 Will Alexander, Democratic can didate for police judge, will succeed man who has rendered good serv- ice, and who seemed peculiarly fit ted for such a place, and who prided himself chiefly in knowing neither friend nor foe in dealing out justice.
 Mir. Alexander is comparatively young man, and in such the capacity of administrator of justice has his reputation to establish. The well fare and peace of the city will rest largely in his hands and all wish him success.
 The new members elected to the council are representative business men in every respect, with a repata- tion for being careful and conserva- tive, and, with the holdover alder men, may be depended upon to steer the city's affairs safely.

Locating the Schools.

There are a number of good towns in the state that will make bids Tor the location of the four agricultural schools.
 The Jonesboro News well says that they are something worth scram, bling for and that Jonesboro VIII scramble for one of them.
 The governor is to appoint the four boards that will have the con trol of the schools and their location.
 The schools will probably go to the town that may be most favorably situated and that makes the best offer of site and bonus to aid in the most advantageous expenditure of the $40.000 appropriated for each school.
 This is not an experiment, for It has been demonstrated success Tn other states, and Arkansas must do everything in it's power to make It a success at the very beginning.
 Let every town big enough for the contest get into the scramble. Ar kansas Democrat.

That Local Tariff Fight.

Nothing has ever transpired bet ter calculated to prove that General Hancock spoke wisely when he said the tariff is local question: than the spirit manifested daily in the consideration of the Payne bill. Every congressman representing a section which has a pet industry wants that particular industry pro- teeted. Nor is the spirit confined alone to Republicans. The Demo- crats are equally as insistant on this line as the republicans. And it is all because selfshness and greed and not the general good are at the bot tom of the whole subject. So long as the big tariff trusts, wool, iron and steel, sugar, oil, etc, "get theirs" it is natural for the little fellows to scramble for the crumbs. But is is vicious and unwholesome condition and will fall by the weight of it's own iniquity and unfairness. .- Ft. Smith Times.

Shall the Railroads Rule Arkansas

Editor Daily Star:-The query piopounded above is very pertinent now, as Missouri seems determined that she will rule, and by injunction has restrained the railroads from putting into effect the Scent passen- ger fare rate, in that state. although the Federal court had declared the 2-cent rate confscatory. Arkansas has an antitrust law, similar to that of Missouri, and under which she has estopped the railroads from rob- ping her people by raising the pas senger fare to 3 cents per mile, and 1t appears to me that our state off, cers should at once "get busy" and see to 1t that our people are not charged higher rates for passengers and freight than in adjoining states. 1 see from Oklahoma papers that by sworn annual reports made by rail- roads to the state auditor, of earn ings and expenses for the past year, the net earnings were much greater than the previous year. Arkansas should have similar law, so we can keep tab on the railroads.

PAYNE BILL PASSED

 217 TO 1e1.
SPECTATORS CROWDED THE GALLERIES
Mrs. Taft An interested onlooker During the Day-one Republican Voted Against tho Bill And Four Democrats for lt-Measure Was un der Consideration Three Weeks.

Washington, Apr. 11.--After three weeks of consideration the Payne tarifY bill was passed by the house of representatives last night by vote ol PIT to 161. One Republican, Austin Tennessee, voted against the measure and four Democrats, all from Louis iana. Messrs. Broussard. Estopinal pujo and Wichliffe, voted for It. An attempt by Champ Clark, the minority leader, to recommit the bill with in. structions signally failed.
 The day was filled with excitement from the moment the session began at noon until the minute of adjournment. The members were keyed up to the highest pitch, and practically full membership remained on duty throughout. The final vote demon. strated the capacity of the Republican organization to get together.
 The general public was greatly in, terested in the proceedings and the galleries were packed. Both the diplomatic and executive reservations likewise were fully occupied, Mrs. Taft being among those present
 When the bill actually was passed the Republicans cheered lustily. some dancing up and down the aisles, and batting their fellow members on the back.
 One of the principal changes affect ed in the Payne bill since its introduc tion was the placing of petroleum on the free list, This involved more seriously contested fight than any of the other amendments. Speaker Can non during debate on the amendment 10 reduce the duty. took the floor in defense of the higher rate of duty. Although an amendment to place oil on the free list was lost Thursday, similar amendment offered by Chair man Payne yesterday was carried.
 Among the other important amend ments that have been made since the bill came from committee were those striking out the provision for a duty on tea and the countervailing duty | proviso on coffee. The elimination of the maximum and minimum section oi the bill, was also significant. To the free list were added ever | green seedlings. cloves and nut oil, which is used In making varnish. The internal revenue law was also amended so that raisers of tobacco will not have to pay a manufacturers | license in order 10 dispose of their leaf tobacco. There were several technical changes in the steel sched ule. principally downward and lace curtain and netting machines were in cluded In the proviso which permits the entry of free duty of lace ma chinery prior to May 1. 1910.

 The program is to put him aboard the first vessel touching at Fort De France.

The first steamer scheduled to touch at the Martinique port Europe-bound, is the French line ship Versailles. due there today.
