Fort Smith, Feb. 17.-One death, all traffic delayed, street cars un- able to run, until noon, the h1gh school closed, score of minor accl- dents and business generally at standstill during the morning are the results of the blizzard in this city.
 William Afford Priest, employed at the Fort Smith Wagon Company S plant, after walking a mile to work before o'clock this morning, drop ped dead as he entered the black smith shop. Heart failure was the direct cause, but the sudden attack was brought on as the result of eX- posture. The deceasel was 60 years old
 Every street car line in the city is covered with snow seven inches deep, besides deep drifts. Thousands walk ed through the blinding snow to work. At noon traffic was normal.
 The Frisco and Fort Smith and Western Railroads are suffering greatly. A Frisco mixed passenger and freight train bound from Rogers to Grove, on the Bentonville branch, stuck in deep drift last night. The but was unable to pull the cars. Pas Very little freight is being moved ov- sengers were transferred to the en- zine and taken to Grove.

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE Delivered By Carrier
PUBLISHING \ NEWSPAPER.

In postprandial talk to the edi- tors of the Eastern Michigan Press Club, which met at Detroit recently, Mr. A. F. Meigs passed out some clear cut advice that touches on the es- sential elements of the publishers success. He said among other things;
 "There is no profession more hon. orable or more exacting than yours. To it you must contribute your brains best product and you should dignify it. The politician should see you in your office and you not be subject to his call. Your place of business is accessible and should be the place to consult with you when any man wishes to use your columns. Then, too, your space, like the goods on the merchants shelves and coun ters, is for sale for all legitimate pur- poses. Why should you give it away?
 ''There is no institution in a town that can do as much for it's growth, prosperity and the peace and happi- ness of the people as the newspaper. The teachers in your schools devote about three months to each two terms per year to educate the young. The newspaper as an educational factor devotes 52 weeks of each year to the cause, for every such paper is of news and the towns historian.
 Your paper is worth more than the subscription price. which you should receive promptly. When the reader does not pay in advance you are practically loaning him your money without interest. A single is- sue IS O1ten worth more to reduer than years or several years sub scription.
 No man works harder to earn his money than you do. It is we'll earn ed and value received is given for ev cry penny of it that comes to you. It should not be slow in coming any more than should your meals.
 Educate your clientage to the fact that you are a producer, builder and entitled to position among the best in your community and to the money you earn"

Paragould, Feb. 17.-Cal. Broad away, claim agent for the Cotton Belt, and ex-sheriff of Craighead county, was in the city yesterday and told his friends of how he was touch ed in St. Louis the first of the week for $29 and his railroad passes. He attempted to board street car at the union station whe he was "jammed" by some light fingered artists and re- lieved of his purse. He later identi- fled a photograph of the individual who did the tanning" stunt and the man was caught, but as he did not have the goods on his person there were no grounds for prosecu- tion.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The sensa- tional speech of Senator Jeff Davis of Arkansas in the senate today was made apropos of efforts of Senator Owen to have passed general bill giving a right of way through the public lands of Arkansas for gas pipe line. Davis asserted that the bill was in the interest of the Prairie Creek Company which, he said, was a branch of the Standard Oil Com pany.
 Believing this to be the truth, he said he would not sit idly by and allow to be passed bill which is in direct conflict with the antitrust

SMOKING A PIPE.
1t Is Said to Give the Face a Square
 JaWed Effect.


 Jawed Effect.
 ."rhere is one question l always asK man who wants d job remarked the business man who has to hire sev- eral hundred men for different posi- tions each year.
 "The question 1 always ask them is. Do you smoke q pipe much:' Of course the answers are various. Some of them smoke q pipe Il great deal and others not at all.
 Why do ask about the pipe? Well. not that 1 have the least interest in sheir habits or that l have any preju- lice one way or another in the mat. ar. The reason is that want to know whether the formation of their lower jaws is natural or acquired.
 "A man with a firm lower jaw is al ways a man of parts and of will. 1 say always most always. If he does not smoke pipe his square jaw. back near where it hinges on to the upper one. is natural. If he is a pipe smoker the looks are dereiving. and 1 have to judge his caliher some other way.
 "Pipe smokers always have strong muscles back on the face about the place man stops when he makes the first stroke downward in shaving These are the muscles that hold the jaws together. They often give a square jawed effect to man who hasn't any square jaw characteristics. My men think I ask funny questions. but there's a reason."-New York Times.

MIssIsSlPPrs REAL STATESMEN.

The senatorial fight is a good graveyard for
cross roads regulations, but likewise the legsla-
tive battle-ground offers comparative safety to
those combatants who would scarcely face the mu-
sic in open fight before the people. Thus we see
some eight ten aspirants for Senator McLaurin s
uneXpired term who it is safe to say never dream
ed of putting their claims before the people, The
scramble before the Legislature offers them their
one chance to slip into place which they would
fill about as well birdshot fills gourd. The
thing is so easy to try and so inexpensive that no
doubt some eight or ten more will come out before
it is over. One thing at least this senatorial
fight is showing the people, the vast number of
real statesmen the state has within her confines.
At least it must be assumed that they are real
statesmen. Surely none of the eight or ten
worthless would try to put one over on the unsus-
pecting public false pretenses. This is not to
say that Mississippi hasn't plenty of senatorial
timber. 1t has numerous men of the very finest
ability The trouble aboutit is, politics has become
such exclusive business and one that, as it is run
demand the sacrifice of those very principles that
q man to faithfully represent the people cannot
do without, that the really big men in the state
have taken a back seat 1t is not pleasant thing
for of the calibre the people want to be beat

ANYTHING which throws light on the causes of
the enhanced cost of living or gives the consumer
an accurate idea of the distribution between pro-
ducers and middemen,6f the money ne pays for
foodstuffs is read with interest. The information
may not enable the consumer to better himself
but it will at least teach him who, if anybody, is
to be blamed for state OF affairs which is a daily
distress. At present he makes wild guesses,
which may be quite out of the way The other
day the Secretary of Agriculture gave out a scrap
of information to the effect that on the average
the city retailer of meats made gross profit of 50
per cent. on each pound of meat he sold. The
Secretary proposes now to enlarge the field Of in
ouiry and discover who is responsible for the high
prices consumers have to pay for eggs, potatoes
flour, vegetables, butter and other daily products
AS might be expected Of the champion of the agri-
cultural interests of the country, the Secretary
feels certain the farmer is not getting his fu.l
share of the advance in prices. And yet he seems
to be getting pretty good share. The increase IN
the valuation of farm lands indicates much.
They sell for more because the crops raised on
them bring more. To settle the question one
should know how much of the money which city
consumer pays for a bushel of potatoes. for in
stance, goes to the grower, the railroad, the COM
mission merchant and the city retailer Then it
would be possible to know whether any of the
middlemen were charging too much for their IN
dispensable services II it to appear that the
railroad charges were excessive they could be
regulated by law, but no legislation dctates to
wholesaler or retailer the price he should ask
though the latter can be forced to give the honest
measure he does not always give now, It will take
some time to collect the information the Secretary
of Agriculture wants, but it would be so interest
ing and probably u eful that he should not delay
sending out his agents to gather it n.-Chicago
