A Vast Field
For Research Here

Dr.. McClung, head of the biologi-
cal department. of the University Of
Kansas. and his family left for their
home Tuesday, after having spent sew
eral weeks most delightfully."- here and
at Olga. DR.. McClung and his as
sistants COMPRISED the largest party
of instructors from any one educa-
tional institution who ever spent q
season at the University Marine Lab
oratory here. Ali we're greatly de-
lighted wi tn the archipelago as q
whole and with Friday Harbor as an
especially advantageous location for
marine biological work.
"There is vast field for research
here. .''said DR.. McClung. "and the To-
cation is admirable for a great labor
atory that should attract sci antific in
vestigators of marine life from all
parts of the United States and even
from abroad. l am very glad that
there is now an excellent prospect for
the establishment of snch an institu-
tion upon broad and literal lines
'fThe only criticism I have to offer
concerning the proposed site here so
generously offered by Mr.. Newhall re-
lates to the contamination needless
and wasteful. il seems to me-of the
salt water by cannery refuse. 1t is
very important that the salt water
used in the laboratory should be free
from contamination by sewerage or
offal. 1t is best if taken from con-
siderable depth or from where there is
a strong tidal current. When the
heads. tails and entrails of fish are
saved. as they most certainly should
be. Tor conversion into valuable fer
tilizer, the only objection to the
proximity of a cannery to the biolog-
ical station will be removed. Even
if such waste continues to be wasted
the law should compel its disposal in
such manner as to prevent it from
becoming a menace to the public
health. which could very easily be
done.
''Our party has gathered a great
amount of material which we are
shipping to our University for use
in BIOLOGICAL work. A great deal of
it will be sent to high schools and
other preparatory schools in the state
which it is our policy to aid in every
way that we can. What we have col
Iected this season will assist us great
Iy and we feel highly gratified with
the results of our work. We have
been treated most kindly by the peo-
pie here and are especially grateful
to Mr.. Newhall for many favors."
Insurance Commissioner Schively
escaped Impeachment by margin of
votes so small that it would give an
innocent man cold chill to think Of
it. Mr.. Schively's experience has
been varied and variegated. When
quite a young man he was mission
ary in India and though never an or
dained minister be has preached in
many puplits. Most likely his i'm

Such craftsmanship, or 'busi-

play; yet it has cost the taxpayers
of the state at least a cool twenty
thousand dollars.
Yet we are living under the
boosted business administration
of great business man. whose
friends, only a few short months
ago, delighted in pointing out the
many advantages that would
accrue to the state in the election

LET'S BUILD A PARK

A nice little public park where
some forms of innocent amuse-
ment could be enjoyed by the peo-
pie, would be a good thing for
Newark. Our people are too much
inclined to neglect the social and
recreative side of life. Business
and work should, of course, have
the right Of way, and should come
first, but the man who occasion
ally turns loose of his work and
plays little, usually accomplishes
more in the end than the fellow
who ties himself down to one eter-
nal grind and never takes any
recreation. Besides, what has a
man gained, even though he aecu-
mulate fortune, if he ties him
self down to one eternal grind of
work and shuts out all the joys
and pleasures of lifel The man
who does this becomes selfish and
narrow, and the world, to him, is
no larger than the area over which
he circulates in his daily avocation
and the distance from where
he eats and sleeps to the place
where he works.
The people of Newark could not
invest money to better purpose
than in making a nice little park
in some central location, where
the people could meet in the even
ings and on special occasions and
have band concerts, light amuse-
ments and social gatherings.

The drainage movement in
northeast Arkansas and southeast
Missouri is gaining. in favor, and
it will only be few years until
that entire section will be drained
and land that was once considered
worthless is becoming the most
valuable land in that part of the
state. Two drainage canals, each
thirteen miles long, are being dug
in the western part of Clay coun-
ty, and work is progressing on
another canal to be thirty miles in
length running through the east
ern portion of Clay and Green
counties. The Journal would like
to see the people of this cummuni-
ty get together on the drainage
question, and do a little digging
instead of so much lawing.

The mayor of Tombstone, Ariz.
has had his hair cut Perhaps you
think that's a joke, but it isn't. In
1896 be vowed that scissors should
never touch his hair again until
w. j. Bryan was elected president.
That was nearly thirteen years ago
and he kept his vow until a few
days ago, when he concluded that
the statute of limitation had run
against the Bryan vow, and so his
long flowing hair which had grown
until it covered his shoulders, was
operated upon by the barber.

ADVERTISING RATES
OUR BUSINESS GOVERNOR

The recent special election cost
the state no less than $40, 900, and
all the people get out of it Is the
knowledge that they have graft
fed Governor Donaghey's desire
to put one of his friends in office.
There was absolutely no neces-
sity for the special election, and
Governor Donaghey's course in
the matter gives a serious black
eye to his boasted promise that he
would give the state a business
administration.
Why does The Journal say there
was no necessity for the special
elections
Because it is a fact, as we will
show, and because it was pure ex-
travagance and savors too much of
the same brand of rotten petty
politics, and dirty, despicable
demagoguery that has held sway
in Arkansas, to her detriment, for
the past six or eight years.
Here is the littleness and ex-
travagance of the thing: Last
winter when the legislature enact
ed law appropriating $50, 900 to
be used by the state in the railroad
litigation involving the validity of
the two-cent fare law, and author
izing the governor to appoint a
lawyer to assist Attorney General
Norwood in prosecuting the suit,
Governor Donaghey could not find
lawyer in the state capable of
doing the job without taking a
Judge off the supreme bench, al
though there is probably a thou
sand lawyers in the state, many of
whom have won success and dis
tinction in their profession.
So he appointed Chief Justice
Hill of the supreme court. This
created a vacancy, which, of
course, had to be filled. So the
governor appointed Associate JUS
tice McCulloch as chief justice,
thus temporarily filling one vacan-
cy by creating another. Sam
Frauenthal, of the governors
home town of Conway, was then
appointed associate justice.
After thus proceeding to tear
down the work the people had
done, by removing men from the
Offices to which the people elected
them, he called a special election
to fill vacancies that he alone was
responsible for, thus entailing up
on the people an expense of at
least $40, 900 or S25, 900.
And what have the people gain
ed by itl And where has the
state been benefittedl
Where was the necessity for all
this, and what have we got in re-

Rheumatic
Pains

"My mother is great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and DR..
Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her"
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Royceheld, N. J.
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence of
pain, which SO frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create habit.
Why not try them? Get a pack
age from your druggist. Take it
according to directions, and if
it docs not benefit he will return
your money.

Heavy outside buying was responsible for

The speculative fever appears TO have set In so

Exports are running largely ahead Of re-
