SERVICES ARE RESUMED.

The usual services were yesterday
morning at the Presbyterian church,
after delay of six weeks, in which
the church has undergone many sub
stantial repairs. Rev. A. NJ. Mac
Lauchlin, the pastor, preached on the
text: "And she shall bring forth a
son, and thou shall call him Jesus; for
he shall save his people from their
sins" The sermon was an interesting
discourse and close attention was paid
the preacher by the audience At the
evening hour the Methodist and Pres
byterians united their services and
Rev. j. B. Stevenson of the Methodist
church preached.
Rev. MacLauchlin announced that
| all the regular services of the church
will now be resumed and urges that
the members be present if possible, at
each and every service.

BARTENDER" GETS LETTER.

Head Bartender, Layman Hotel"
is the address on letter which was
delivered to J. H. Stubbs of the Com
mercial hotel the other day. The let
ter was from liquor trade magazine
and requested the addresses of all the
bartenders in the city. 1--WE are de-
sirous," it says, "of placing in the
hands of every bartender our maga-
zine, so that they will be in a posi-
tion to understand the serious situa-
ton confronting them and enable
them to present argument that we
feel confident will overcome much of
the sophistry advanced by the Anti
Saloon League wherever found" AL
though the request is apparently very
urgent, Head Bartender" Stubs
says he is unable to comply with it.

CEMBER 13. SAYS CEN
SUS BUREAU.

The census bureaus report of the
cotton ginned to December Is this sea-
son, was issued at Washington this
morning, shows that 9,362, 900 bales of
cotton were ginned to the date men
toned, as compared with II 1892, 900 to
the same date last year and 9,284,0
to December 13, 1907. The figures
show ginning of Asa 900 bales in the
10 ginning days since December /.
Fourteen thousand one hundred and
siXty-three bales were ginned in
Faulkner county to December 10, as
compared with 1926 to the same date
last year. This represents a ginning
of only 1886 bales in the 10 days since
the previous report, against 993 in the
same period last year, and indicates
that the ginning season in this county
is practically over.

TRAINS RUNNING LATE.

The combination of a northwestern
blizzard with rush of holiday travel
is having marked effect on the sched-
ule of the Fort Smith railway. The
extreme cold weather last night de-
layed train No, 1903, due here at 6:30
asst night, about fourteen hours. So
many extra coaches had been put in
service that there were no cars on
hand in the Little Rock yards with
which to make up No. 104. and this
train, due to leave Little Rock at $40
a. M, had to wait until No. 103 ar
rived to be made up from the equip
ment of the latter train. 1t arrived
here about noon today.

to your rulings and actions in the
matter. Allow us to say you have
guarded well the homes of our loved
ones when we have been negligent in
our duties and the homes you have
protected by your unceasing care and
the drafts that have been carried to

igns should ever be to you a memor-
al of your services as consul com
mander. Now, in behalf of Conway

REGARD CAPITOL
AS SMALL JOB

Little Rock, Dec. 20.-Now that the
contract of William Miller & Sons
Company for the completion of the
state capitol is ready to be signed
and both sides have agreed upon the
terms, the bond alone is to be passed
upon, and the contractors will then
commence their work. Ralph p. Tay-
lor, the representative of Miller &
Sons Company, who has conducted the
negotiations with the state capitol
commission, stated today that the con-
tractors could easily be ready to COM
mence the work on January l, if in
structed to do so, as they have so
many large contracts over the coun
try from which material and machin-
cry could be rushed to Little Rock.
This concern is just completing the
history First National bank building

machinery and working crew from
this building will be brought to Little

the home state, Pennsylvania, but
during the past year it came south

The Porto Rico Bill.

The house of representatives has
passed the Porto Rican bill asked
for by President Taft. It is a bill
to enable the insular government tc
go on when the lower or popular
branch of the legislature refuses to
pass the appropriation bills. 1t has
done that this year because the ex-
ecutive council would not consent
to legislation-some of it admittedly
bad Observation-Disclosures by the house
of delegates. The executive council
is an appointive body. Six of the
members are Americans and five are
Porto Ricans.
The bill provides that if appropri-
ations for the support of government
are not made the treasury may, with
the advice Of the governor, make the
necessary payments. Opposition to
it was based almost exclusively on
the fact that it would curtail "the
power over the purse of 'the e p
~resentatives Of the people," That
would have been a weightier objec-
ton if the Porto Rican government
were supported by taxes levied as
they are in Arizona and New Mex
leo. Customs duties collected in Por-
to Rico, averaging about a million
dollars a year, go into the insular
treasury instead of the United States.
Whatever internal revenue taxes on
tobacco and spirits are collected in
the island go into its treasury. II
Illinois were as well treated by the
national government there would be
no lack of money for any state in
stitution.
In all Porto Rico gets from the
United States $3,00O,000 a year.
There is a small property tax, but
most Of the proceeds go to the mu-
inieipalities. Substantially all the
money which supports the insular
government is provided by the Uni
ted States. The national government
should have something to say about
the expenditure of that money. II
the Representatives of the people"
say that the wheels Of government
shall be blocked unless the execu-
tive council assents to the improper
expenditure of some of it, it be-
comes time for the United States
to Intervene.
Whenever the executive council,
refuses Its assent to just laws there
is an appeal to the president. He
can remove incapable members and
substitute sensible mes. But the at.
tempt to force through bad legisla-
ton by holding up the appropria-
'tions should be rebuked. The SEN
ate should pass the house bill at this
session. II. can find the time to do
It while the tariff bill is in con-
ference.

The agitation for a lower duty o,

The agitation for a lower duty on
wool will not meet with a favorable
reception from the wool growers of
the west. Before the Dingley law
was enacted, the wool growers had
a precarious time of it. Sheepmen
who we're wealthy and prosperous
under the Mckinley law became lit
tie better than paupers under the
Wilson4Gorman monstrosity, when
wool vas on the free list. The Ding
ley law changed things, and added
millions of dollars to the wealth of
the western states. The attempt of
republican senators like Dolliver to
reduce the tariff on wool to a point
lower than that which it enjoys I'M
der present laws seriously menaces
a now prosperous western industry.
Complaint has been. made that the
Pacific coast states andt the east
were getting the cream of the pick
ings under the pending tariff law.
But the wool schedule affects west
ern South Dakota, Wyoming and
Montana very largely. The sched-
ule should stay exactly where it is
at present.

Professor Holden of Iowa told the
farmer not to 10 to town unless
he wanted to die, and statistics show
that that is just what a great many
farmers who move to town do. Quit
ting their hard working, early ris-
ing, early-to-bed system of living on
the farm for one possibly less siren
uous but certainly more enervating
in town, has proven the death of
many a man who appeared to be
strong and rugged while residing in
the country. But Professor Holden's
advice will not prevent the farmer
from looking with longing eyes to
the time when he can retire and
move to town, nor will it prevent the
town man from looking forward to
the time when he can take life easily
in the country.
