ARKANSAS DEMO.
 GRATIS RESPONSIVE

ReturnS received thus far make It doubtful if the Republi- cans nave secured majority in any one ot the seventy five count les of Arkansas, unless it be in NeWton and Searcy, and even these may be found in the Demo- cratic column. In no one of the hve districts where they had nominees for Congress did the Republicans make very active campaign, and none of the candi- dates were strong men polite ally This indifference on the part of the Republicans pro- duced a corresponding apathy on the part of the Democrats who, resting secure in the know ledge that the Democratic ticket was not in danger, refrained from going to the polls. In con- sequence the vote vas light throughout the State, and it is expected will fall considerably below that cast in 1908. In many precincts no election was held, and in none is it believed there was a full vote polled.
 The fact that congressman were alone voted for, no other officers being elected at this time IS also another reason for the lax vote. While figures are slow in coming in, and the complete returns will not be known otfici. ally for ten days, the rest It's of yester days election in Arkansas are as follows.
 First District-S. Bruce Macon of Helena; returned without op- position Mr. Macon has been member of Congress since 1903.
 Second District W. A. Old field of Batesville, defeating Jno. T Hall of Salem. This will be Mr. Oldtield'S second term.
 Third District-J. c. Floyd of Melville, defeating R. s. Gran ger of Eureka Springs. Mr. Floyd has been in Congress since 1905.
 Fourth District-Ben $. Ora vens of Fort Smith, returned without opposition. Mr. Cravens was first elected in 1906.
 Fifth District-H. NJ. Jacoway of Dardanelle, defeating A. c. Remmel of Little Rock. This will be Mr. Jacoways first term, succeeding co. Reed of Morril- ton.
 Sixth District-Joe T. Robin son of Lonoke, defeating pr. R. c. Thompson of Pine Bluff. Mr. Robinson has been a member of Congress since 1905.
 Seventh District-W. $. Good win of Warren, defeating A. l.. Wilson of Thornton. This will be Mir. Goodwin $ first term.

LIFE WASTES
persons

That there are 100000 persons
sick in this country at the present
time: that 100000 will die within
the year; that 10000 900 homes, or 25,-
900, 900 people, quarter of the coun-
try's population, are more or less
wretched because of sickness or death;
that one out of every twelve people liv-
ing today will die from tuberculosis
these are some of the statements made
by Prof. ]. Pease Norton of Yale, in
the first issue of the Popular Insur-
ance Magazine"
He cites these cold and bare facts,
not to alarm, but to stir the public to
action that will compel the federal
government to protect human life
against disease He points out that
the department of agriculture spends
$7,O0O,OO0 a year on plant health and
animal health; that it saves hogs from
cholera and elm trees from beetles,
but does not protect human lives from
disease.
Every domestic animal Of the farm
has better chance to live because of
the great work the department of ag-
riculture in the past ten years at a
cost of $5O,O0O,O00, but, DR.. Norton
points out, 100000 of the people now
living in this country will be carried
off by diseases of the heart or kidneys,
100000 will perish from pneumonia,
and within a decade 100000 babies
will die before they reach the age of
two years. DIR. Norton adds:
And yet this number could probably
be decreased by as much as one-half.
RIIt nothing iS done
OF all the grievous wastes of nations
death, war, disease, accidents, vice,
crime, fire and bad government, by all
odds the heaviest burden to the indi-
vidual and to society as a whole is
caused by the life wastes.
The life wastes are the measures of
the suffering caused by preventable
death. preventable disease and pre-
ventable accidents. In comparison
with the life wastes all other wastes
of nations pale into insignifcance.
Prevention, not remedy" is the
watchword suggested by DR.. Norton in
the fight that must be waged against
disease. And surely everybody will
agree with DR.. Norton that the time
has come when this fight should be
waged more vigorously.

THE SCHOOL FOR BRIDES.

The new department just opened in
the School of Domestic Arts and Sci
ences in this city, in which prospective
and young wives are to be taught how
to make prospective and young hus-
bands happy, ought to be an attractive
and useful one.
The most hopeful sign of its success
is the practicability of the new scheme.
Instead of the various political, philo-
sophical, suffragetical and ethical re-
forms which have been agitated as
antidotes for the divorce habit, the
author of this scheme gets far down
to the roots of Benedictine happiness
by establishing a curriculum to which
the prominent items are making mod
ell bedrooms, disposing of socks, ties
and vests, preserving trouser creases,
putting away shirts, airing rooms,
decorating them, matching furniture,
etc.
All this satisfies the outer man, but
it does not provide for the cravings OF
the inner man. The kitchen should
not be omitted. Unhappiness often
begins at breakfast and eliminates at
dinner. Tough biscuits and burned
roasts have been the source of much
domestic undoing. Domestic dyspepsia,
for which no pepsin remedy has yet
been found, is frequent cause of dis
satisfaction, arrangement, divorce, etc.

In the Primitive Courts.

In the days of which write the judicial
system. like the country, was in its in
fancy. The circuit court was composed of
a president judge, elected by the legis-
lature, and who presided at all the courts
in the circuit, and two associate judges,
elected in each county by the people. The
president Judge was always a lawyer of
some experience. The. associate judges
were not lawyers. and they made no
claims to legal knowledge. AS rule
they were typical representatives of the
backwoodsmen, and very illiterate yet
they had the power to override the presid-
ing judge and give the opinion of the
court, and they often did SO. In such in
stances their reasoning was likely to be
of most ludicrous character. However,
they made up in honesty what they lack
ed in other directions, and the results
were not as bad as might be imagined
They were usually elected because OF their
popularity and their well-known integrity,
and though they occasionally went wrong
their constituents did not strongly CEN
sure them because of their mistakes
The clerks of the pioneer courts were
seldom qualified for their duties, and
proofs of this statement. Tney were un-
educated, and some of them barely had
the ability to scrawl their own names, yet
There was a clerk in one of the pioneer
settlements of central Indiana who boast
ed OF his superior Qual1IlcaIlOnS py QSCldA-
ing that he had been sued on every sec
ton of the statute, and, therefore, knew
the law while his opponent had never
been sued, and, therefore, could not know
the law. He was elected on this platform.
She sheriffs were chosen by the people,
and the man who could send his voice
farthest' in the woods from the courthouse
door was often the successful candidate.
A stentorian voice, physical strength, and
tried courage were the principal Qualif1ca-
lions for this important office. When the
court desired the presence Of John Smth
as a petit juror or as a witness, IT was
the sheriff's duty to stand outside the
courthouse or poke his head out OF a
window and cry three times, and with all
the power of his lungs, John Smith,
come to courtv and John generally heard
the call and Obeyed. If he happened to
be so remote that he did not hear, there
were always plenty of loiterers who
esteemed it an honor to go after him. A
written summons was seldom resorted to.
It was regarded as a waste of material
and time to say nothing Of the stupen-
dous task which the preparation of such
a document would place upon a clerk
who could hold pillow handle or rifle
much more effectively than pen.

FRON OTHER PENS
NEW ENGLAND FARMING.

A writer in the Outlook compares the
production by acreage of various crops
in New England with those in Western
states, which have become famous by
the bulk of their production, and
shows, surprising as it is to most of US,
that the New England soil, acre by
acre, is the more productive. How
many people know, or will believe, that
New Hampshire leads the country in
its corn yield by the acre? Yet its
average is AZ bushels to the acre. Con-
necticut's is 40 and Massachusetts, 80
plus, while Illinois has 80 bushels
minus, and Kansas only %. A Massa-
chusetts man took second prize at an
Omaha corn show with 1872 bushels of
sheIled corn to the acre Iowa has IL
times as much farm land as Massachu-
sets, yet it's crops are worth only nine
times as much: Illinois has 10 times
the area but only eight times the
value, and Kansas has 13 times the
area with only four and a half times
the value.
As New England farms are, as a
rule of comparatively small size, they
are naturally managed in the intensi-
fed system of cultivation and every
thing possible is secured from an acre
In the West. where cultivation is car
ried on on a vast scale, there is natur-
ally no such careful and intensified
cultivation. Yet the New England pol
icy is the proper one.-New Orleans
