 Judge Carter appointed P H.. Herring foreman of the grand jury and proceeded to charge that body in his usual business like manner. We want to stop right here long enough to state that no district in Arkansas has better judge than this, the Eighth, and that Judge Carter has a state reputation for his fair ness and impartiality in all opin ions.

An Arkansas Boost

From the handsome colJred cover page pOrtraying Tn a wreath the products of Arkan- sas, the spirit of the state pre- vails in the September issue of the National Magazine. The cdi- tor, Joe Mitchell Chapple, made an extensive tour of the state with his associates, mingled with the people and has written an ac- count of The Awakening of Ar kansas, /" which is geography and history up.tO-date. Nearly every county and city in the state was visited, and the story will do much to bring the attention of the people of the nat o n to the remarkable resources of Arkansas now being develop ed.
 Mr. Joe Mitchell Chapp,e writes pictorial and personal story that gIows with the hos, it. able courtesy which was extenC- ed to him in the various places visited. This magazine will be preserved in every home in Ar kansas, and will be sent broad cast by her people to friends n other parts of the country who may not have a conception of the wonderful strides toward devel- opment being made in this state. Thousands of acres are being re claimed and added to the fruitful farm lands, the great mineral re. sources are yielding untold wealth, while the homes, schools and general development in Ar kansas are unsurpassed by any state in the Union in proportion to it's population.
 Arkansas-A Reverie," by Opie Reed, is literary classic in it's way, and fitting tribute from the former editor of the Arkansas Traveller" Mr. W.R. Lighton, who recently awoke en- thusiasm with his story, My Arkansas Farm has written another article for this special number.
 Altogether, the Nationals story of Arkansas, rehecting her splendid progress and immense opportunities for future develop. ment, should stir the pride and stimulate the interest of every one within the state.

The politicians are looking as
kance at what appears to be a
partnership between the Feder-
alton of Labor and the Farmers
Union, and it is being referred
to as a giant trust. The Feder-
alton of Labor claims two mill
ions; the Farmers Union three
millions; the sum of which a.
mounts to five millions, which is,
of course, a powerful voting
strength; but it must be remem-
bered that Mr.. Gompers failed

When it was announced some
months ago that Mr.. Lorimer
had been elected to the United
States Senate from Illinois, there
was a feeling Of depression at an
apparent backward step. The
people of the country who strive
through the press to keep in
touch with public men and mea-
sures, were expecting another
kind of man as senator from that
great state. Now it appears from
the confessions of bribe-takers
that his election was the result
of bribery and that it was scan-
dalOus in the extreme. There
can be no doubt that Mr.. Lori
mer is not the proper person to
hold his seat in the United States
Senate. The most becoming thing
that he can do is to resign. By
taking such step he will do
grace to himself, to the Senate
and to the country.

There was a financial panic in
the fall of 1907 from which the
country has not yet recovered.
Many causes have been hypoth-
ecated in explanation of this pam
ic. The wisest, perhaps, are not
fully advised as to the true cause,
but all were agreed at that time
and have been apparently agreed
since, that financial panics are
far too frequent in this country
and that the underlying cause is
our unstable financial system.
There was much talk at the time
and has been since in legislative
and financial circles, of the i'm
portance of having solid finan-
cial system with central ma
tional bank such as has given
permanency and security to the
m on e tary establishments Of
Great Britain, Germany, France
and Holland; but, as is usualin q
popular government, the uprush
of selfish interests utter their
petty protests and with menace
of political influence intimidate
and paralyze the best legislative
and executive purpose. Senator
Aldrich ard other members of
the monetary commission who
went abroad to investigate the
monetary systems of foreign
countries, were plainly impressed
with the advantages of the CEN
trail bank system. England has
long worked prosperously under
such a system, but the bankers
in this country have been work.
ing like beavers against the a.
doption by this government of
the central bank idea, and are
denouncing the system without
understanding just what is pro-
posed. They suspect that it will
in some way interfere with their
very profitable banking business,
and, as is usual in cases where
so-called popular government
prevails, the special interest, in
this case the banking interest, is
likely to have it's way and the
law of the greatest good to the
greatest number is likely to fail.

will not, by usual rule of such
things, continue much longer. I
must not be understood as eXer-
cising the office of prOgnOstica-
