Old Line Suffrage Workerc and the
w. C. T. U. Don't Gibe.
The equal suffrage element Of the
state is to hold a convention at Aber-
deem at g. early date in which they
expect to frame up line of campaign
for votes on their amend8ent at the
election next year. The meeting will
be attended by representatives of the
national organization. 1t is rumored
that the ladies are having troubles of
their own in the campaign, in which
the W. C. T. y. wants to drive the
band wagon, and the old-line equal
suffrage workers want the campaign
cut loose from the temperance organ
ization, and make the fight on a
straight-out suffrage campaign. 1t is
reported that the meeting at Aber-
deem is expected to harmonic the diff
ferences which appear to exist. There
have been several conferences be-
tween the different elements in the
state since the adjournment of the
legislature, but they have not yet set
tied the vexed question, hence the Abb
erdeen meeting. During the cam
paign before the legislature for the
suffrage amendment it went down be-
cause of the division in the ranks OF
the suffragists, and was only pulled
out again by interests which do not
expect to support suffrage at the polls,
but found it proposition which they

Peculiar Australian Bird.

To the 'utside world the greatest ornithological oddity in this country is the kookoburra, says the Sidney (Australia) Times In earlier times it was known as the settlers clock" from a belief that it's joyful paeans were vented regularly at morn, noon and dusk, being quiescent through the heat of the forenoon and the wane of the afternoon. That belief has long been shattered. The kookaburra laughs just when the fit takes it, par ticularly when excited: and 1t laughs as readily at the violent death of it's mother-in-law as it does at the en- ragged settler, when he falls off his haystack. \ woun ded bird makes a demoniacal row, which will bring all others within hearing into the neigh. boring tree, and these at once set up an echoing cackle that is repeated again and again.

SANITY AND SENSE AND LAW.

Sanity and sense have succeeded craze and quackery. and reason will proceed reasonably to adjust in fixed accord those harmonious intere sts which the demagogue had split asunder.
 This is a declaration of the Man ufacturers' Record in a discussion of the industrial conditions con fronting the South the industrial and legislative situation.
 A score of legislatures will soor be in session, and we shall see if the prognostication was well grounded.
 There can be no doubt about the necessity for such awakening as that which has been designated by the Record as a return to sanity and sense"
 The demagogue has too long made ruin and devastation of in- dustrial conditions.
 The legislature of the Southern States have an opportunity now to assume a position of broad pro- gressiveness, ignoring the eaptious and non- n-essental and those hurt ful crusades that are really based upon sentiment and desire to win the pludits of an minimizing gallery.
 There has been an expression of desire on the part of people that business considerations shall pre- vail and now has come the time ef fulfillment.
 It is to be hoped that the entire South, and especially Arkansas, in which we are the more directly concerned, has successfully steered clear f'om the maelstorm ot unhealthy agitation into which the country was hurled and that now more normal day of conserv- ative progress and mutual forbear- ance has dawned.
 We believe that the approaching session of the legislature is com posed of men who are alive to the truth of these statements, and the imperative need of the state for laws that will encourage and rem der permanent those foundations which alone can support super structure of geEui inc worth.
